That is serious situation, but
there are men who are awake to it
and who are striving to meet it. Iowa
State College has been instrumental
/, in perfecting. an organization of; the
progressive beef producers Of the
state, the Iowa Beef Cattle Associa-
ton, which purposes to educate Iowa
farmers to the need of larger beef
production and to the profit there is
in it. This, association has $500
from the state of Iowa to put into
this work and it will soon send out
the first trains ever sent out to preach
the gospel Of beef production. ~
"Iowa is the best state in the union
for beef CATTLE" says Professor Ken.

The advent of the silo in Iowa has
opened up way Of producing beef
cattle for market at two-thirds Of
the former cost of production. That
makes the chances for good profit
better than ever. Men who are pro-
ducing beef with skillful and scien-
tific methods are making their farms
yield more than ever before and at
the same time they are returning a
larger percentage Of fertility to the
soil than ever before"
Iowa men who believe in promoting
beef production should lose no time
in getting into touch with this new
association and join it's ranks Of
''boosters."

ATTACK MADE ON
-. JuRIS'T:'S LIFE.
INTERNAL MACHINE SENT TO
JUDGE ROSALSkY IN NEW
YORK INJURIES POLICEMAN,

New York, March 1S.-Every avail
able detective at police headquarters
is searching the i city today for the
man who attempted to STAY Judge
Otto A. Rosalsky on Saturday night
with an Internal machine sent him
through the mails. Similarity of the
typewriting on the package and of the
manufacturer Of the deadly missile
to that which caused the death on Feb.
3 last of Helen Taylor at her home
at Seventy-seventh street has led to
the opinion that the same man sent
both bombs. $s g.Nsr
Deputy u Commissioner Dougherty
declared that the police have been I'M
able thus far to find clue to the
identity of the sender, whom they be-
lieve to be insane.
Judge Rosalsky refused to discuss
the case, but it is reported that he has
turned over to the police number of
threatening letters which he has re-
Gently received.
An attempt to kill Judge Otto
Rosalsky of the court of general SEES
sions with. a bomb proved unsuccess-
full Saturday night. 1t was only de-
feet said to be a small accumulation
of dirt in the mechanism in the in
fernal machine, which the justice had
unsuspectingly opened, that saved him
from possible death or certain injury.
The bomb later exploded while being
examined by Inspector Egan Of the
bureau of combustibles. seriously
wounding him about the face and
arms. ss. aa,
The intended victim of the explosion
had been given a great deal of pub
LEFTY lately in connection with the
Brandt case. It was Judge Rosalsky
who sentenced Brandt to thirty year
term for burglary at Mortimer L..
Schiff's home in 1907 and who recently
reversed his action.

IOWA AND THE BEEF.
STEAK SITUATION.

Unless Iowa farmers get busy
within, the next year or two and plan
on producing beef cattle on larger
and better scale, the country is going
to face shortage in beefstoaks.
Prof. w. J. Kennedy, of the animal
husbandry department of Iowa State
College, has investigated the situation
thoroughly and that is the statement
he makes on the basis Of the facts he
found. The number Of cattle sent to
the big markets is decreasing: the
population of the country is rapidly
increasing. "There, is bound to be
only one result if this situation is
not changed" says Professor Ken
nedy. Beef is either going to be so
high in few years that it will be
beyond the. reach Of the average man
or it will BE- a forgotten luxury"

 THE FEDERATION
Phoenix Typographical Un- ion Sorely Taxed to Meet the Demands of Needy Craftsmen in Distress. They are Following a Blind Trail.

At d meeting of Phoenix Typo graphical union held yesterday a re- port was received from it's delegates who participated in the formation of the federation of labor here a short time ago. The report was listened to with enthusiasm and the union en- dcrsed the actions taken thus giving it full ne-lged utilization with the fed eration.
 The report of the sick committee lcl to a discussion of a problem that has faced many fraternal societies in Ari- zcna and that is now matter of much concern to the Phoenix Typographical union. The union is not a fraternal nor a charitable institution and yet its purposes are such as to develop a large measure of human charity and it's common cause tends to fraternal- ism. In the hour of suffering a crafts man cannot be left in distress even though he has no legal claims for help. In this western country sought by so many in search of health there is a constant tide of unfortunates of slen- der purse that in a short time be- tpititS no purse ti rill. ilfNf lllflA must be cared for and Phoenix typo graphical union does its full share and perhaps more, to that end.
 For many months past the union has been caring for craftsman Of this sort who had on claim upon the members except that in days of forme~ health they had earned living at the same trade. But public institutions are not sufficiently available here to turn them over to charity alone so the union in the name of humanity alone and in the pride of it's organization has carried the load. Their maintain ence at a hospital became to expensive the union could not afford it and in self defence, a house was rented and the men are being cared for in this way. Though it is still burdensome iI is cheaper than placing them in a hospital But unless the union re- ceives help from some quarters the nUmerousness of such charges will fierce if in self protection tO turn a marble heart to those it sincerely wants to help to the measure of reas- ."nable liberality.
