Grand Rapids was hit early today by
a tornado that injured forty or more
persons and did thousands of dollars
worth of damage. The storm entered
the city from the southwest, about
four o'clock. The first place struck
was the city market and the Grand
Rapids Central League baseball park,
adjoining
The market was crowded with farm
ers and their teams, as trading had
just begun. After the storm struck
the roof Of the ball park grand stand
was lifted off and scattered all over
the park. A panic followed. Horses
were killed and great many persons
were hurt some so badly they had to
be sent to the hospital. The police
reserves and fire department were
called out.
The storm then swept across town,
striking the best residence district.
The storm struck the market place
just as the bell for the morning open
ing rang. A terrific thunder storm
which had been approaching had CIV
en- no warning of danger from wind,
but suddenly whirling balloon cloud
appeared in the southwest and headed
directly toward the clustered produce
wagons.
With deafening roar the roof OF
the ball park grand stand was lifted
high in the air and fell in veritable
rain of great planks and beams upon
the frightened men and horses in the
market place. causing panic. Men
and women thrown down by the wind
We're run over and knocked uncon-
scious by dashing teams. Nellie Wier-
ma attemptedto quiet her frightened
horses but fell and in moment two
heavy fruit wagons passed over her.
| She may die. Many other persons
suffered broken limbs, but it is thought
all will recover Charles Gibbs. 81
years old, who was suffering from a
nervous disease died from shock caus-
: ed by the storm.

to the LaFollette campaign fund,
came out this afternoon with a dec
]aration that he would support Gov
enor Wilson for the Presidency and
would contribute to the Democratic
campaign fund if the governor would
permit him to do so. Mr.. Crane
was accompanied by President Van
hisse of the University of Wisconsin,
a former LaFollette leader, whose
sympathies also are with Governor
Wilson's candidacy.
Mr.. Crane said he had always been
az admirer of Governor Wilson and
now wished to do what he could do
to bring about his election. He
thought the Governors nomination in
sured the brightest prospects possible
for a progressive administration at
Washington.
The Progressive Republicans, so

touch with the Progressive leaders
there and work for Wilson.
Speaker Clark reached Sea Girt
earlier than was expected and was
half way up the walk leading to the
Governors house before he was rec
ognized. Governor Wilson met him
with outstretched hands before he
reached the steps to the porch.
"Ah. All, Mr.. Speaker" the Gov
ernor exclaimed, grasping the Mis-
sOurian's hand. They went to the

the Senate today when it recOnVened
10 continue to the Lorimer case that
the pro-Lorimer forces were working
to delay further the final vote in the
hope of changing several waverins
votes to the support of Mr.. Lorimer,
The anti-Lorimer forces practically
conceded that his speech of yesterday
had put back on LOrimer's side, two
Senators counted upon as antagonistic
to him on the second vote. These
we're Senator Cullum, of Illinois, his
colleague, and Senator Tillman, OF
South Carolina. The belief that these
two Senators had determined to op-
pose the resolution to unseat Lorimer
because of his analysis Of the evil
dence against him, was generally ac-
cepted as a fact today by his oppon-
ents.
Senator Kern had not determined
whether he would reply to Mr.. Lori
mer when the latter again took up his
speech at the opening of today's ses'
sion. Almost the first utterance OF
the Illinois Senator was a renewal OF
the challenge to Senator Kern and his
associates to refute certain of Lori
mer,s statements as to the evidence
brought out by the Investigation.
Again the defy brought no response.
Senator Lorimer's immediate attack
upon Lea. Kenyon and Kern, and his
repeated challenge to them to disproVe
| his statements lent added color to the
belief that an effort would be made tc
bring on further debate before the
| final vote on the Lea resolution of eX
clusion Senator Kern was the center
of a short conference when he came
| on the floor, one of the participants
being Senator Luke Lea, another min
ority member of the investigating
committee, and a target for Lori
mer's shafts in the two days of hi
lspeaking.
The opponents of Senator Lorime
had practically agreed not to ansWe

that to open discussion would in

The air in the chamber was hot ant
Oppressive when the Senate convened
The Senators came in reluctantly, bu
sixty were on hand when Lorime
again took the floor. The CALLER,
crowds of the preceding days had no
arrived at the early hour of conven

It was Mr.. Lorimer's announced in
tention to conclude his speech toda'
if not interrupted. His opponent
were determined that he should finisl

tonight if we do not reach vote be

Senator Lorimer seemed refreshed
after few hours respite from th'
strain of his defense and plunged int
his effort with renewed vigor. At on
point, declaring that the proceeding
jagaints him had been conducted b.
conspirators, he exclaimed: IF all th'
people knew the full story they''

weighing from $50 to 225 pounds. These
hogs run on an alfalfa field until after
they are IL weeks old and are fed all
the middlings and milk that they can
eat. The feed for the evening is gen
pouring the milk over the middlings
allowing 1t to set all day to soak up,
thus making the feed to be fed in
the form of dough. This has been
found to be much more satisfactory
for taking on fat than feeding it in
the evening in the form of slop. Any
one who has ever fitted stock Cor the
show ring will know that this method
of feeding is absolutely correct, and
if followed by the young breeder as
well as the large feeder. good results
VIII certainly accrue.
The shelter provided for the hog
on the plant above mentioned are small
houses built in cone fashion about six
feet square and made on skids so they
can be moved from one place to an
other. Another reason for these small
houses is not to have too many hogs
together in one place, which is a good
preventive for keeping away disease
1nese houses are also USED IN the far-
rowing season, and it is astonishing
how much intelligence the sows show
in going to their own little house.
The watering process is handled en-
tirely with troughs governed by fIoar.
each watering trough is so covered on
top as to allow nothing but the head
of the hog to get into it to drink, there
fore preventing them from wallowing
in the water during the hot season. A
wallowing pond has been built on this
plant about two feet deep and twenty
feet in diameter. This pond Is kept
full Of water all the time, with enough

nELATIoNsHIP OF THE TOWNS

IN The Press is pleased to note that
on all hands, here and in other towns
of the valley, there is feeling that
the future leads TO a more intimate
relationship between the several com
munities
1t is natural and inevitable that there
shall be difference. OF opinion as 10
the correct policy. and when the policy
of any town shall affect the interests
OF the valley at large, it is natural and
proper that those policies shall be
favorably or unfavorably criticised in
the other towns, just as they would
be in their home towns.
But this does not by any means
necessitate feeling of antagonism be-
tween the several communities. TAX
ing Imperial and El Centre, by way Of
illustration, nothing can be more ap-
parent than that they have great
deal in common, as they have other
points in competition.
For instance, in common they have
the building up of the country which
lies between the two cities, where de-
velopment has Jagged, undoubtedly in
large part because of the conflict be-
tween the towns.
OF course, there is a degree OF com
petition between the towns for trade,
just as there is competition between
individuals, but such competition is
not sufficient to warrant a continuance
of bitterness, and there is no reason
in the world why the relationship be-
tween the towns should not be cordial
and friendly, and the Press is pleased
TO see the tendency in that direction.
On certain questions of municipal
policy the Press has decided convic-
tions, and it always has had and al
ways will express those convictions
when occasion seems to make il de-
sirable, whether for the time being such
expressions have bearing on Ell Centre
or any other town in the valley Some
times those expressions of opinion re-
garding policy are distorted into an
tagonism to communities. though there
is no warrant for such construction.
and the Press Is anxious 10 see every
community In the valley prosper and
10 do its part IN the promotion Of pros
perity for all.

improve it SO that his sons will follow
on in the work. The writer has in
mind only one man in this country who
has ever devoted his life's work to
raising hogs, and the son, after the
father has improved on the work. In
Great Britain you find this to be the
case pretty much all over, not only
in breeding hogs, but in all other kinds
of stock. This is the reason why Brit

A Wrong Idea of the Business

Most new beginners get the wrong
idea about raising hogs; they presume
that if they purchase a few sows and
a boar and turn them loose to rustic
on an alfalfa patch, at the end Of the
year they will have a lot of hogs for
sale at big prices and a barrel of
money to put in the bank; usual.
they find they have very few hogs for
sale and what they have are of very
poor quality, the price is poor, they
dispose of what they have. go out of
the business, then squeal that raising
hogs on alfalfa is a failure, which is
correct under the method they adopted.
We find every day in our experience
real estate men advocating this meth
Cd of raising hogs to sell their land.
The writer speaks from experience in
this case, because he has witnessed just
such proceedings. Our agricultural col
ieges are issuing bulletins on pork
production all the time, and by secur
ing these beginners would judge for
themselves which method to pursue n
hog raising.

What Is n Good Foundation.

There are now in California several
registered herds of hogs which are
started on the right road to success.
There are also a good many which
have not been started right and will
always be a failure unless there Is
a good deal OF remodeling done. The
buying OF a few good sows and a
boar Is only small start In the great
work. The care and development Of
these foundation herds generally de
termine their success or failure.
When a beginner starts out to breed
pure bred hogs. the first question he
generally asks is. Which is the best
breed" This question has been an
swvred again and again through the
battle OF the breeds" All breeds are
good and all breeds have good and bad
ones among them. One Of TIE prime
considerations in the selection of a
breed is the likes and dislikes of the
breeder, and one Is more apt TO sue
ceed by starting out with a breed
which he likes than one of yqual merit
which he dislikes.

of hogs it ought to be taken up as

RIGHT AND WRONG WAY
TO DEAL WITH HOGS

Wrltten TOT tne racine NuTdl fTeSS
by c. NJ. Carrothers: The hog industry
in California is in its infancy. What
possibilities are in store for the men
who like the game and care to pla,
it, How dormant is this huge indus
try that is constantly knocking at op-
portunity's door. How few seem to
realize the vastness of the cause! How
many have studied natures great work
in providing an entering wedge to the
solution Of the work? What about
the train loads of cured hams and ba-
con that are shipped here for consump-
ton every month in the year? Is our
population growing beyond the realiza-
ton of our hog breeders. or is the
development of our farming lands not
keeping in line with the commercial
ism of our cities, or are our mining
and numbering interests claiming the
best element who have adopted Cali
fornia as their state by choice, or are
we destined to import pork for the
growing consumption? Surely not II
the possibilities Of our great common
wealth are properly advertised to the
great influx of immigration that is
crossing our borders. Is II possible
Iowa and Nebraska can raise feed
and ship to us hogs cheaper than We
can produce them here, or is our eli
mate not adapted to the curing of ba-
con and hams, which is undoubtedly
not the cause? Then, what is the
cause of our slow development in the
hog industry?
