Washington, Aug. 2S.-Whether to
exult over the prospects that they
will elect a ticket in November or
let fear of the consequences cloud
their exutation, is a problem TO
many of the democrats of the house
and senate.
Practically without exception dem
ocratic senators and house members
believe Wilson is going to be elect
ed in November; that the demo-
Gratis are going to retain control OF
the house, and probably 10 get
control of the senate. But the ques-
tion then arises what are the dem
ocrats going to do with such a VIC
tory?
The apprehension is widespread
among the democratic leaders tha'
victory for their party will be only
the forerunner to the dissolution OF
it. They perceive the republican
marty now rent in the stand-pat ana
progressive factions, and new par
tv formed on the foundation OF pro-
gressive republicanism. They are IN
anxiety lest the democratic party
is soon to come face to face with
similar situation.
But lately, there have been many
signs of trouble between the pro-
gressive and reactionary schools OF
the democratic party. The Bryan
and anti-Bryan row at the
Baltimore convention emphasized
the division. The battleship ques-
tion caused such a division that
it almost smashed up the plan OF
caucusing on measures before the
house It was not a division along
progressive and reactionary lines
it is true but it was of importance
in that It brought to light the strong
feeling of opposition to the caucus
which many of the house members
feel.
The conservation question ana
several others which have been ne
fore the house lately, such as the
report on the steel investigation
have indicated the lines OF divis-
ion Tn the senate. the lines are
becoming more and more conspic-
uous between the democratic rae
tions.
Meantime, the question Of whether
Wilson. if elected, will be a progress
sive or will lean backward toward
the reactionaries is being talked
with great zeal and earnestness

Maud Muller on summers day
out in the meadows raked away.
The Judge came by, just as of yore
But when he gazed the meadows o'er
In search of Maud, so sweetly fair,
Was not aware that she was there.
And so with spirits much cast down
Kept sadly on his way to town.
The trouble was that Mauds new hat
She wore that day out on the flat
Loomed up so large, both front and

VICTORY SAYS OWEN.
People Awake and G. o. p. is in the
Throes Of Dissolution.

Senator Owen arrived Monday af-
ternoon over the Katy from Battle
Greek, Michigan, where he has spent
the last week recuperating from the
tax of the recent campaign.
Democratic victory is in the air.
Senator Owen said last night, in his
rooms at the Skirvin. which were
filled during the evening with his
friends from all over the state. The
G. o. p. is in the throes of permanent
dissolution. With the exposure of the
Penrose alliance with Standard Oil,
the $125,000 contributed to elect Mr..
Roosevelt by Archbold, the head of
the greatest private monopoly in the
country; the exposure of NJ. A. Hanna,
the head of the republican party or
ganization begging money successful
ly from the same Archbold; the eX-
posure of his colleague, Senator j. b.
Foraker receiving $44,500 from the
same Archbold and the exposure of
other republican leaders leaves no
doubt OF the alliance of the corrupt
business monopolies with machine
politicians in control of the republi-
can party.
The country will have no more OF
this depraved and corrupted organi-
zation The better men have been
compelled to leave this party. There
probably will be a million upright
men who will abandon the republican
party this fall and vote the demo-
cratic ticket
Il am glad to see Roosevelt lead
the progressive party for he will as
sure the DETECTION from the G. O.
P. of over half of those who have
heretofore been republicans, but who
because of partisan prejudice and
hostility will not vote for Wilson and
Marshall.
1T should be the policy of demo-
crats,' Senator Owen continued, ito
invite the upright republicans who
are dissatisfied with the conditions
Of their own party to affiliate with
the democrats and there is but one
way to win and to mold their support
and that is by actual merit.
Let US agree to join together
heartily and in good faith to give the
people the complete relief they right
fully expect and provide Immediately,
as the first step, to establish the
mechanism to perfect popular gov
ernment. Let us give the people di-
rect power perfect our election laws
and put an end to the perversion OF
the governing powers to private profit
or personal ambition and establish a
Isystem where the general welfare
shall be the controlling purpose and
people made the actual and ruling
force, the sovereign power behind
every law, every official. Let our Of
ficials he public servants inspired by
the high purpose of public service
alone.
Eve must establish the mechanism
by statute to accomplish this and it
is easily done. If We satisfy the state
and the nation of our purpose to do
this, the people VIII respond nobly
The democratic party has asplendid
opportunity. We should not fail to
aavil ourselves of the splendid occa
sion."

his time from now until the close o.

and waste the manure produced by
his stock Barns are often erected on
steep hillsides, or even close to the
banks of running streams. which
practice insures a most certain waste
of the valuable constituents of the
manure heap.
Farm manure is q perishable prod
uct and must be handled with intelli.
gence to obtain it's maximum value
Doubtless when manure Is handled as
on the majority of farms, only half of
its value reaches the field. The
greatest loss is through the waste of
the liquid excrement by the use of
insufficient bedding to absorb IT,
The boring OF holes in the floor for
the express purpose of allowing the
urine to run off as rapidly as possible
is common practice severely to be
condemned
To prevent such loss, that part of
the barn floor on which the excre-
ment falls must be so tight that none
of the liquid can drain away. The
trough behind the animals should be
made absolutely tight by the use OF
pitch. cement, or some other material
that is impervious to water Besides
this precaution, enough litter should
be used SO that all urine is absorbed
and none runs away by dripping,
when the manure is removed from the
barn. 1t is often Of the greatest ad-
vantage to cut the bedding material
into small pieces. This increases It's
absorbing capacity. and facilitates
handling the manure, Straw cut 20
one-inch lengths, for example. win abb
sorb about three times as much
urine as long straw. S'ockmen who
have practiced cutting the bedding
assert that the great ease with which
the manure is removed and spread
repays the cost and trouble. to say
nothing Of the bedding saved.

Wisconsin College Of AurIculture

Pound for pound, liquid excrement
is more valuable than the solid ex-
cept in the case Of swine. 1t is per
feetly safe to say that of the total
fertilizing material in the manure,
two-thirds of the nitrogen, four.
hfths Of the potash, and practically
none Of the phosphoric acid, are found
in the urine. 1t is apparent that
somewhat over half of the total value
of the manure is in the urine. If the
liquid portion of the manure is al
lowed to run away, half of the value
of the excrement is lost.
Another fact OF great Importance
In this connection is that the plant
food in the urine is in a form that is
soluble in water and consequently
more available to plants than that in
the solid dung. This is particularly
true of the nitrogen. The solid ex.
crement consists, in part Of the undi-
gested portion Of the food, and before
It's nitrogen can become available to
plants, it must undergo decomposition
and decay.
In Wisconsin the value of the
manure produced annually by its
100000 mich COWS, $4,000 other
cattle, $4,000 horses, 100000 sheep
and 100000 swine. is approximately
$77,3S1,000. AS large a proportion of
the valuable constituents of this
manure is annually lost here as in
any part of the United States. 1t is
safe 70 say that from the farms of
Wisconsin there is an annual loss of
at least $25,O00,OO9, due to the indif.
ferent and careless management Of
the manure produced, Farmers be-
grudge the time and labor required to
remove it from the barn and feeding
lot, and it is not uncommon to see a
man purchase commercial fertilizers
