Washington, Sept. 21.-That IL Il
commercially profitable to dry
hay by artificial means, thus elm
mating the large waste due to
damage by rain in the fields afte,
cutting, 10 the belief Of officials OF
the Department Of Agriculture.
For two or three years past
experts OF the offi,e of farm
management have been conduct
ing experiments in Southeastern
Missouri with alfalfa hay, putting
1t through a kiln-drying process
For a doubt existed ms to whether
hay could be dried In this manner
on a commercially profitable basis,
While the work OF experimental
ton has not been concluded, Off
Gals are satisfied that kiln dried
hay would save the farmers of the
country an enormous amount OF
money annually.
The department has not formal
ly announced the exact location
of the governments plant. 1t Is
In the alfalfa belt of Southeast
Missouri and was under water for
a considerable period OF time dur
ing the resent flood. Since that
time, however, II has bean pat in
to commission once more. It is
expected that formal bulletin
dealing with the experiments will
be published by the department in
the near future.
Hay artificially dried Is subject
ed to great heat for a shoort time
and CONS through the process re-
tanning rich green color. The
Juice Is forced out and the larger
part Of II preserved.

"I'll Die Trying"

Somebody Numbered asd ms a re-
suit the Omaha fast mail going
nearly a mile a minute, crashed in
to the Denver limited at Western
Springs and thirteen persons were
killed and many wounded.
Engineer Bronson of the fast
mail died In his cab With his hand
gripping the reverse lever.
Lying in the hospital his face
twitching with pain, Fireman Gran
told how Bronson died.
He said:
ave got no warning until we
were within about $50 yards OF the
limited. Then somebody tagged
us, and at the same time a couple
OF torpedoes were exploded. II
was foggy. Before we knew II We
had crashed into the Denver train.
Bronson died at the throttle. When
he saw death ahead he turned to
me and said:
"Train ahead. I don't think
can stop her. Pm going to die
trying"
"Well he died that way. He
stayed right In his seat with his
hand on the reverse lever"
Somebody Numbered.
Make your roadbed as level as a
parlor floor, build your cars OF
steel, put semaphore towers every
half mile, use every safety lppli-
ance known and yet somebody
may blunder.
You cannot insure the perfect
working OF the mechanism OF the

The Answer

Mr.. Johnson was a visionary sor,
OF mortal and while he may have
intended to help the people he
missed 1t very far at times. His
arguments may apply to some Sec
tons OF the country In the East
but never to Missouri or Saline
county.
Here I'm Saline the farmer list he
big taxpayer and to exempt per-
sonal property will raise his taxes
that much. We have no cities to
offset the additional taxes, al
though city real estate would have
to share the increase.
The percentage quoted does not
apply to us In the leist, as our
land values are SO much higher.
Under the Single-tax there Is no
doubt that our lands will be tax
ed In proportion to city, while at
present, owing to the fact that our
county has SO much valuable land
and our needs are small, we are
taxed only about one third OF the
city values besides alower rate,
which proportinately to the city
would make our present rae
about s per cent. and with the
exemption no doubt raise It to 10
Der cent, far different from Mr..
johnson's figures.

Most OF our people are naturally
opposed to the Single Tax amend-
ment and many of our politicians
are taking advantage o. the feel
ing of the publ, by recommending
the repeal OF the initiative. and
referendum law under which II
was submitted to q vote. While
this law permits the submit ,sion OF
an unfair measure II also protects
our voters from unfair Legislators.
II IL well known that the state
wac unfairly districted In 1870 so
as to give most OF the congress-
men and state sen ,tors to the Dem
ocrats. Although the d tai I ne Is
utterly unfair, the voters OF the
state have no redress except un-
der a law such as the initiative
and referendum whi'h permits I he
matter to be- placed before the
voters and gives the minority an
opportunity to express Themselves
Even though the single tax carr
ried 1t could not be put into effect
as It Is certainly contrary to the
constitution OF our country and
the Supreme Court would declare
1t SO. And every other confisca-
tory measure would NEE. in, came
fate, SO that the initiative and re-
ferendum does not seem so dam
gerous as we r led to believe.
When a spirit OF fai ness prevails
We will have no need TO: 1t OF

Current Events Lectures.

Mrs. Morrill, Hamlin of Portland
began her series of Current Events
lectures. Tuesday afternoon, in Libra
ny hall. with an interesting talk or
the National conventions of the pass
summer. She described first, the
manner in which delegates are chos-
en-, and went IN to a discussion of the
possibility that such conventions may
be done away with in the near future.
In this connection she explained-the
terms: Initiative referendum and re-
call. and the growing tendency of pri-
maries, which may result in Presiden-
tial preferential primaries throughout
the country. This is due 10 the fact
that a dark horse can be forced upon
the National convention; and the peo-
Pies chosen candidate lose the NOM
nation. This happened in 1880, when
Blaine and Grant were at such dead
lock that Garfield was nominated.
After outlining the principal events
of the different conventions and the
party platforms. Mrs. Hamlin mention
ed a few of the striking characteristics
of the three candidates. finding that
they. have MANY in common.
Following few questions by the
ladies, Mrs. Hamhn announced that
