FROM ROOSEVELT CAMP
Statement Issues Regarding AIcKfn-
| ley's Campaign Methods.

Washington, March 5.-The national
Roosevelt headquarters today gave out
a statement which said:
Further evidence of the manner in
which the administration campaign
managers are conducting the fight for
delegates has come to light in the form
of a circular letter which is being sent
to the postmasters and other federal
employees throughout the northwest.
That a similar form of letter is being
sent out through the south already has
been stated but its exact terms have
not as yet come to light.
'eThe letters received by the federal
employees in the northwest are very
delicately worded-such letters as only
the pen of the diplomatic Mr.. Mckinley
could well turn out and abound with
yelled threats and plastic praise
Boundless enthusiasm is expected and
it is declared without hesitation that
the sentiment in favor of the nomina-
ton of President Taft is rapidly grow
ing. Hints are then thrown out that
assistance of all good office holders is
needed, Mr.. Mckinley evidently forget
ting the optimism expressed in the
preceding paragraph.
Already several hundred of these
letters have been sent out it is stated
and more said to contain a more per-
sona1 tone are. in course of preparation
for serving to job holders who have
displayed reluctance to rally to the
support of the administration. In these
latter epistles, it is stated, the hints as
to what will be the portion of federal
servants who fail to faithfully serve the
interests of President Taft are made
more plain"
With the statement the Roosevelt
headquarters gave out a copy of one of
the Taft circular letters, addressed in
blank. After expressing optimism, as
to the outlook for Mr.. Taft and the
opening of the national Taft bureau the
letter concludes:
TT will be the aim of this bureau to
conduct dignif1ed and energetic cam
paign in keeping with the presidents
high conception of American states
manship. I would therefore thank You
to render such assistance as you can,
consistent with your duties and would
appreciate an early reply giving me
such information as in your Judgment
will facilitate the work of the bureau.
Very truly yours,
WILLIAM B. MCKINLEY,
Director"

TAFT KEYNOTE TONIGHT
StimsOn Will Represent Administra-

Chicago, March 5.-Preparations
have been completed for the reception
of Secretary of War Henry L. Slim
son, who will make the first important
speech in the west in the campaign
of President Taft at Orchestra hall
Two boxes have been reserved for Off
GERS of the regular army in the head
quarters of the central division in
Chicago and one box for the officers
stationed at Fort Sheridan.
AT Taft headquarters here it was
said that the speech of Secretary slim

Mr.. Stimson to have it heralded as

SNOW, MORE SNOW.
Fall of Two Inches and Prospect for
More.

Snow began falling at o'clock this
morning and the precipitation con-
tinued intermittently all the morning.
By 10 o'clock when it stopped the
which when melted measured .05 of
an inch of water.
The government forecaster says that
we may expect practically the same
brand of weather over again in the
next "a hours. Indications point to-
wards more snow, and the mercury
by morning will be lowering around
the 8 degree point-today at and 8
o'clock the thermometer registered A
degrees.
There was today on the ground 1876
inches of snow, the greatest depth of
the white substance that has been on
the ground in Topeka at any one time
with the exception of the last day of
February, 1900, when the depth was
1876 inches.
The question in the minds of many
persons is just how long will it take
for the present snow to disappear.
Well, in 1900 it took just nine days
for the coating to have entirely van
ished, but unless the weather prophet
hands out different brand of atmos-
pheric conditions this speed will not
be maintained in the next few days.
1t might be of interest to recollect
that two years ago Monday the mer-
curry stood at 81 degrees, and two
years ago today at 50 degrees.
The snow f1urries are general over
Kansas. There is an area of low pres
sure over the southwest portion of the
country that is causing the unsettled
conditions.
The shippers forecast reads: PRO
tect SO hour shipments north against
temperature of 6 degrees; west against
10 degrees; east and south 15 de-
grees."
Clouds Clear Away.
Late this morning the clouds cleared
away and the sun ShOne out with SUI
fcient brightness to melt away all the
snow that had fallen in "a hours and
then some.
Don't think that this clear weather
will last very long, said Sunny
wind is indicative of dampness, and
the indications are for snow iurries.
The temperature at o'clock today
was the same as that of the cores

IOWA FOR TAFT.
Sixth District Delegates Already Prac-
ticaIIy Assured.

Des Moines, Ia, March 5.-The first
two delegates to be chosen in Iowa
for the national Republican conven-
ton will be instructed for Taft and
will come from the Sixth district, rep
resented in congress by the progress
sive, N E. Kindal1. This is made GER
tain because six of the seven counties
in the district have instructed their
delegates for Taft. Indications from
preliminary caucuseS indicate Taft will
also get the two national delegates
from the Ninth district. 1t is also evil
dent that in the Eighth Taft will get
the delegates.

AMERICAN IN NET.
Alice Wright and British Suffragettes
Given Two Months at Hard Labor.

London, March 5.-A1ice Wright,
described as an American residing in
Paris, was sentenced today by the
magistrate sitting at the West London
police court to two months imprison-
ment at hard labor on a charge of
window smashing.
All the other women who engaged
in the raid yesterday in the west end
of London, received similar sentences.
The addition of hard labor to the
term of imprisonment is a departure
on the part of the magistrate and has
caused dismay among the women.

FEED THE CROP To STOCK
LIVE STOCK MORE PROFITABLE
THAN GRAIN FARMING.
BY F. 3. Mumford, Dean Of College Of
Agriculture, University OF
Missouri.

What the farmer wants is n scheme
OF soil conservation that is profitable.
II live stock farming conscrves fer
tility but Is not profitable. then II
need not be further considered.
But live stock farming is profitable,
and il more profitable than any other
system Of permanent agriculture that
has been used. The average annual
net income from stock and dairy
farms in the United States for the
ten.year period ending with the year
1899 was 11.42, while the income from
hay and grain farms was only $772
per acre In Missouri the income
from stock farms WAS 1886 and fIom
grain farms $3.50. The most prosper.
Gus and best managed farms through.
out the corn belt today are the farms
where live stock Is large. If not q
chief factor of production.
Exclusive grain farming as prac,
t!ced from New England west to the
Dakotas has left behind q trail OF
depleted soils, and where carried on
for too long a time, ruined farms and
abandoned homes have marked the
way. When we remember that at O
very conservative estimate the stoveT
or stalks, leaves and stems OF the
corn plant contain not less than %
the entire plant, and that under sys
tens OF exclusive grain farming all
this material is 80 utilized that only
its humus value s saved, We must
conclude that there is another method
whereby this valuable feed.stufl may
be first converted into animal prod
ucts. Such q method is certainly tc
be recommended.
What Is needed to maintain and
improve the fertility of the soil? The
Investigations on this matter are clear
There are four things needed undel
existing conditions to supply, directly
or indirectly, to the land. These ar,
vegetable matter or humus phos
phosus, nitrogen and potash. II IL
correct for us to say that In any well
planned system of live stock farming
the humust supply can be easily sus
tained. The nitrogen can be rapidly
increased, and the phosphorus ant
potash supplied either through the ap
plicatlon Of fertilizer DIRECTLY. or b,
