Johnson Yields to Horses

Chicago. September 10.-That human interest on a hot day centers more easily in a horse race than in politics, was the decision of Governor Johnson today at the Streator fair. when he de.nvAd starting his address until after the 20 trot had been finished.
 He said, amid applause:
 My friends, l preach the doctrine of the human race, but no race can com pare with a horse race. let us see the heat out" a..4 sss.a.s...- ..s- B. .. .
 Then he faced the horses and saw the heat run off. Some saw an analogy be- tween the start of the horse race and the political contest A horse named Teddy was a long time getting started, but the race finished with Teddy in the lead and the crowd shouted Teddy wins"
 He always does and will this year. remarked the governor.
 Governor Johnsons itinerary today car ried him through the scenes of the famous Lincoln- Douglas debates of 1s59 His ad- dresses dealt mainly with social and h. dustrial questions. Cheering crowds greeted him In every city he visited.
 At Ottawa the governor compared the critics of the progressive party to the man who put his fingers in a buzz saw to prove it would run. The governor re- turned to Chicago tonight and tomorrow he will address the progressive conven- tion in Milwaukee.

I have just received word that he car ried the state and that it was his promis Q he had come out for the progressive na- tional ticket"
 Colonel Roosevelt delivered an address in the stadium here tonight. attacking the democratic party and declaring 1t had made no fight against the ''bosses" dur ing the primary campaign. democratic victory in November would mean. he said, ''the enthronenient of the bosses each in his own state.'
 He referred to conditions in New Jer- sey, saying the democratic party there lis struggling apparently to get rid of one boss, Mir. Smith. and apparently has gone to bed with another, MT. Nugent.'

PROPER CARE OF DAIRY cow
Jersey Is Highly Developed Milking
Machine and Her Characteristics

am every ready to say a good word
for the dairy COW. / ordinarily give
my cows bran and ground oats, even
when have to buy the feed, and can
unhesitatingly say that they always
pay it back even twofold. The breed
which has given me best results are
Jerseys, says writer in an exchange.

spect. have always been able to dis
pose of at good prices any offered for

best heifers from the herd and sell the
rest. Last summer MIXED nine
cows, but this summer l will have
double that number, because a number
OF heifers are coming in this spring.
But l never let cows run out every
day or roam around the barn during
winter, because the profit would then
be very small. 1t does not pay to have

home with dog. But the animals
learn to recognize the voices of my
wife and children, and as soon as they
hear their names called come, because
they have been so handled that they
love to be petted, fondled and MIXED.
The Jersey COW is a highly develop
ed milk making machine. She has
been bred so long for this purpose
that her characteristics have become
fixed, and the descendants of a we'll
bred dairy COW can be depended upon.
The amount Of milk that she will
make depends largely on the amount
of food that you can get her to use.

To Clean Fountain.

The best way to clean drinkin g
fountains which cannot be reached on
the inside is to use scalding hot wa
ter and big handful of shot. Fill
the fountain about quarter full of
lot water and then pour in the shot.
Shake the vessel briskly so that the
shot will scrape along the bottom and
sides of the fountain. This will re-
move the scum and leave the fountain
sweet and clean.

If properly fed, skinned milk can
not be surpassed as a food for young

largest waste comes from overlooking,
especially young pigs and calves.
When the calf is two weeks old, its
feed may be gradually changed from
whole milk until only the skinned
milk is fed Calves seem to thrive

If the chickens are fed on skinned
