HAY FROM THE SOY BEAN.
Directions For Handling Forage From
This Useful Plant

Directions For Handling Forage From
This Useful Plant.
For hay soy beans are cut with the
mower and as soon as wilted raked
into small windrows They are allow
ed to dry here for short time and
should then be put into small shocks
and allowed to stand until we'll cured.
Experience is necessary in curing soy
bean hay, but those who have made
cowpea hay will find less trouble in
curing that of soy beans. A CORE
spondent writes in regard to curing
cowpea hay that he sets posts about
one foot into the ground. nails cross
pieces near the bottom and shocks the
hay over the posts as soon as cut. The
forkfuls of pea vines are slipped over
the post, which is sharpened. and a
good sized shock made. No further at

SHOCK.
From bulletin Kentucky agricultural sta

tenton is given until the hay is cured.
He claims that hay cured in this way
is Of extra fine quality, but does not
say how much time it takes to handle
the hay in this manner. 1t would prob
ably not prove practical on large
scale, but is worth trying with small
crop.
Another contrivance often used in
curing soy bean or cowpea hay Is il
Illustrated here. The hay is allowed to
wilt and is then raked into windows
and piled over these frames. Being
held up from the ground and having
an air space in the center of the shock,
the hay, Of course. cures quite rapidly.
This apparatus appears to be more
practical than the one described above.
Neither soy bean nor cowpea hay
keeps we'll in stack unless given a
good covering of timothy or other
grass, because the coarseness Of the
stems allows the water to penetrate
so readily. The stack should also be
made on brush, rails or boards to keep
the hay from becoming damp and
moldy on the bottom.-Bulletin, Ken
lucky Agricultural Station.

Not Much Hope for Party.

The only hope for the republican
party at the next general election
is to throw over the political bat
Element all of the present aspirants
for the republican pr S n ii
nomination, and nominate man
who has not been involved in the
squabble which has disrupted the
party which today stands for moth
ing, and has nothing to recommend
it to the voters. D e m ogues
would commit the party to which
they hang for personal reasons to
political heresies which the think
ing men cannot and will not indorse
or support by their votes at the
polls. If the present conditions
continue, and there is no hope for
change, the conservative element
will never support either Roosevelt,
LaFollette or Cummins and the
crazy insurgents will not support
Taft, should he be nominated. The
only hope for the election is a
dark horse" and not much hope
of success then, should the demo-
Gratis nominate Bryan. The repub-
lican voters everywhere have lost
confidence in their self-assumed
leaders and reached the conclusion
that the welfare of the country de-
mands a change.

SANITARY DAIRY HOUSE.
From KimbalPs Dairy Farmer

trates a very convenient farmers dali
ry house. The size of the rooms may
be varied to suit the individual needs.
A concrete tank near the pump
makes cooling of the milk convenient.
The separator should be located in the
same room. A room provided with a
sink and rack can be located at one
end Of the building. This room should
be used exclusively for washing and
drying cans and bottles. A room with
shelves suitable for storing milk
should be partitioned off from the OPP
posite end of the building.
The walls and floor of the dairy
house should be of solid REINFORCED

The cost Of such a building need not
exceed $1S5, varying according to the
size Of the herd. - Kimballs Dairy

SiIage Cheaper Than Pasture.

Dean Mumford of the Missouri Col
ment that cows can be maintained
more cheaply on silage than they can
be carried through the summer on
blue grass pasture, where the land
costs about 800 per acre and is suit
able for growing corn. He says that
there is very little pasture land where
a cow and a calf can be pastured on
less than one and one-half acres, but 1t
is entirely possible to get twelve and
one-half to twenty tons Of silage from
one acre.

The editor of the Leader is a
tariff for revenue protectionist,
with a tariff high enough to protect
the farmer, artisan and laborer.
Democratic free trade and the Re-
publican tariff smashing are both
fraught with danger to the class
that need protection. The DISPOSE
ton to cripple the manufacturers
is calculated to react most injuri-
ously upon the farmers by driving
millions of men into the avenues of
farm productions, who thus cease
to be consumers of such products,
glut the markets and reduce the
price of both what the farmer has
to sell and the value of his land.
The wonderful prosperity of the
farmers during the past decade,
their values more than doubling,
and the astonishing accumulation
of wealth, should influence them to
oppose free trade or a reduction of
the tariff to point which should
impoverish them; and the manufac-
turer should divide profits with the
artisan so as to make a more equa-
BILE division of the income from
their labors.

to the outskirts, tied him to a
post, and piled wagonloads OF
oil-saturated wood about him.
Davis was brave until the
flames shot up, when he begged
loudly for mercy.

GIVES
$4,000 BAIL

Arrested on a warrant chaYg-
ing grand larceny following his
indictment yesterday, Atty. r. l..
Sheriff. this morning appeared
before Judge Chapman and gave
$4,000 bail.
Sheriff. was not located until
about 4 O'Clock yesterday after
noon, being between Tacoma and
Wilkeson in his auto when in
dicted. He was taken. into GUS
tody by Deputy j. Mooney about
5 o'clock. AS he could not give
satisfactory bonds then he re-
turned to Wilkeson with the dep
uty sheriff and returned to Taco
ma this morning.
The charge is the result of the
alleged obtaining of $500 from
Mrs. Mike Crashules, an ignorant
miners wife of Wilkeson, through
telling her that 1t was to replace
the straw bond she had given to-
effect her release from jail.
Sheriff. did not turn the money
over for bonds and says he KEEP,
1t as attorneys fees. AS result
of Mrs. Crashules' complaint
Atty. H. P. Burdick was appoint
ed to investigate the allegations
that Sheriff. had divided the
money with a member of the
prosecutors staff.
Although 10 true bills have
been returned Sheriff Longmire
today said he had been given no
other warrants for service
