Governor Hadley said he had ample
precedent for the action he demanded.
In 1884" he said, the convention
in its own right to conduct its own
business in Its own way, overthrow

temporary chairman"
That convention declared that the
national committee was the servant
not the master Of the people in the
party" he said.
Hadley also quoted as a precedent
a decision Of George T. HOar, OF
Massachusetts. presiding in the cOnven-
ton in 1880, who recognized a motion
to amend the temporary roll by sub
stituting delegates.
..This is the way this question
should be decided today" shouted
Hadley. and the crowd cheered-
Hadley closed in a storm Of applause
and governor Fort, Of New Jersey, took
the stage.
Gov. Fort Is Heard.

Mr.. Fort did not get far before the
crowd began to laugh and interrupt
him with cries Of sit down"
The New Jersey governor made the
mistake Of answering the galleries
which clearly held a big prepOnder-
ance OF Taft sympathizers. The
Roosevelt people claimed they were
packed.
Mr. Fort was constantly in trouble
after that.

SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 3, 1912
LET US BE CONSISTENT.

The Star-Mirror has, from the stand
point of principle, advocated home in
dustry. We have published columns
trying to prove that it pays to patron
ize the man who is carrying on busl-
ness in Moscow, or in the county or
in the state. Talk with the merchant
and he will say that he believes in
the same thing, and points out, rightly
enough, that he pays taxes, helps to
maintain our school and roads and
public institutions, and is deserving
of support And he is. But what
about it if the merchant, when he
wants a few bill heads or a bunch OF
statements, or letter heads, sends his
work out of town? Yesterday no less
than seven different firm here in Mos
COW were out collecting bills on sta
tionary printed out of town. This
means that lot of printing that could
have been done in Moscow, the doing
of which would help to keep printers
employed here in Moscow, where their
wages would be spent with Moscow
merchants, was done outside of Moscow,
by printers who do not live in Mos
COW and who do not spend a cent OF
their wages with the merchants who
are helping to pay their wages. The
big item in printing is wages. The
printer who does the work actually |
gets the big end of the money. Why, |
then, can any sensible business man
figure it out that it pays to send
out of Moscow for printing, or any
other article, even though there as
small saving in cost? 1t is not con-
and it is rubbing it in" on the
home papers who are asking the peo-
pie to trade with the Moscow mer-
chants rather than send their money
out of the country to some mail or
lei house
With the knowledge that the home
merchant is patronizing the outside
printing concern it is a hard dose for
he home printer to swallow the limp
n his troat while he writes articles
giving the farmer fits for doing that
which the merchant is doing.

light of scientific discovery. Being
country bred they are also in a posi-
ton to look at the farm from the
farmers view point, study his meth
DDS, and interpret his experience. The
enough to master whatever that farm
has to teach. They study other farms
of various types in like manner. In
this way they finally acquire, in at
least very large measure, the exper-
fence and results of many men. This
gives the field man a view point and
conception Of the possibilities of the
agriculture of his district that can be
acquired in no other way.
A most serious obstacle in the way
of directing agriculture along more
profitable lines is the lack of informa-
ton regarding the cost of farm opera
lions and the profits derived from farm
enterprises. This is due to the fact
that so few farmers keep any records.
Just as number of COWS in a dairy
herd may not produce enough to pay
for their care and feed so one or more
crops grown on farm may be pro-
duced at a loss. Farmers can help

acres, growing 160 acres of wheat each
year under the summerfallow system
with extra labor only at harvest time.
With the same equipment it is obvious
would be idle much of the time If
growing wheat by the same method.
The smaller the farm the more in
tenst must be the type of farming
per acre in order to yield a living for
the operator.
In redirecting farm profit it is es-
sential, in addition to a thorough I'M
derstanding of the factors just dis
cussed above, to know: First, what
crops may be grown; second, the rel
alive proftableness of these crops;
third, what labor operations each
crop requires; fourth, the dates these
operations may or must be done;
fifth, the crews desirable or permissi-
BILE in performing each operation;
sixth, the average number of days
available in each month for field Ia
Dor; seventh, the equipment best suit
ed to the enterprise; eighth, the cost
of equipment; nineth, the net profit
which may be expected etc.
From what has been said it is evil
dent that the redirection of farm
for high efficiency is an intricate and
complex problem which requires a
vast fund of information. Such
knowledge is not available to the aver
age farmer The man who stays with
in a single farm and devOtes his en-
tire time to a single type of farming
has a narrow experience. He knows
the facts concerning the crops he is
growing and may know them well. He
does not know, however, the details of
production and utilization of the many !
crops which might contribute to
profitable cropping system on his farm.
In order to solve the problem the
farmer must first try this crop and
then that until system is worked out
which properly distributes the labor
the working season and
yields satisfactory financial returns.
This requires years of patient work
is frequently an expensive process
1t is the method followed, however, on
every farm that has solved
such a problem.
The office of farm management is
making a specially of the collection of
Information of this kind. One of the
most fruitful sources of such inform
ltion is the study of farm method and
arm experience. In nearly every in
tance our field men were raised on
he farm and given an agricultural
ducation. They are, therefore, in a
position to look at agriculture in the

The House Fly as He is and Isn't.

On the assumption that He
doeth all things well," we take
it for granted that the bestowal of
the fly upon mankind in countless
numbers was for a good purpose,
and this is manifest to any OBJ
server Of the rapidity with which
they remove all manner Of filth
from dwellings,, streets, side
walks. etc.
In old times it was said that a
scarcity of flies betokened a sickly
season. This was in advance of
modern sanitary conditions, but
indicated the dependence Of the
people upon the fly as well as the
buzzard, as public scavenger.
I may be fairly assumed that
in the absence Of filth there
would be few flies. and that in a
condition of cleanliness the flies
that did survive could not be the
bearers of foul germs.
The battle should be first
against the filth that feeds the
flies and is said to load them with
foul germs. There are houses
and towns where the outcry
against the fly are the loudest
that would be pestilential in their
filth if there were no flies to do
the cleaning up.
No one pretends to assert that
the fly is a breeder or creator of
foul germs, hence it can Only be
charged as a bearer or distribu-
tor, and so the war against the
filthy houses and lots should be
mercilessly waged with view to
cutting off the germ supply. and
then the windows and doors
should be screened against the
remnant of the little scavengers
who seek good food if they can't
find filth.
To form an idea of the eff
cheney Of these scavengers, drop
a spoonful of molasses in an ex-
posed dish and see how quickly
they will remove it and polish
the vessel.
The best way to war against
the house1y is to make it innoci-
GUS by destroying its filth depots,
and this can be done by sanitary
laws well enforced. AS to horse
stables and cow pens, they sup
ply of the pestilential load, for it
is notable that the people there
employed are among the healthi-
est and longest lived. Aberdeen
