The Lynden tribune. [volume] (Lynden, Wash.) 1908-current, 1912-09-05

With four political parties in the
field and each having full tickets
the political situation in Whatcom
County Is unprecedented, and be-
fore another issue of The Tribune
reaches it's readers an active polite
al campaign will have been launch
ed.
The Progressives in this county
have entirely divorced themselves
from the old ring-ruled republican
machine. Prominent men through
out the country heretofore known as
republicans will have nothing more
to do with Mr. .Taft's tumble-down
party. Secretary Naff, of the repub
lican county central committee, has
handed in his resignation, and chair
man w. p. Brown, that staunch,
admirable little scrapper, it is expect
ed will be in line with Progressive
men and women doing battle under
the Roosevelt banner as soon as the
present committee turns over its re-
cords to its successor.
The meeting of Whatcom County
Progressives held at headquarters in
the Mason Block at Bellingham last
Friday evening was attended by an
exceptionally large number of rep
representative citizens from all parts
of the county. The three large
rooms were filled to overflowing, ant
many had to content themselves will
standing room in the hallway.
This meeting was not one of of
fice-seekers and disgruntled politi-
clans as the Bellingham daily papers
pretend, but one directly in contrast
Herewith. 1t was a gathering OF
men and women who are earnest in
their efforts for the betterment of
the existing conditions of public af.
fairs, and who have the interest and
welfare of the county and state at
heart. They attended the meeting
for the sole purpose OF lending sup
port to movement which has for
it's basic principle good government
clean and honest administration ca
public affairs by competent officers.
Attending the meeting were John
c. Lawrence, Progressive candidate
for governor; George H. Walker, car
didate for congress to succeed Will
Humphrey; "A. +. MOberg, of Mount
Vernon, candidate for state auditor;
Henry Korthauer, Whatcom coun
ty candidate for the same office; w
II. Kaufman, candidate for state
land commissioner, and that sterling
organizer and leader, E. c. Snyder
chairman of the Progressive state
central committee. These men, with
several others present. made brief
but telling addresses which were re-
ceived with an enthusiasm seldom
witnessed at political gatherings.
Mr.. Snyder brought greetings from
state headquarters at Seattle. He
predicted that Col. Roosevelt would
carry the state by a plurality OF
| $4,000. In referring to the Pro
gressives he likened them to Noah
who, he said, was the first great in
surgent, and in building the ark ir
the face of ancient stand patters
was left high and dry on ' Ararat
whereas the stand patters" went
down under a deluge.
The meeting showed that the
Progressives are giving great dea
of attention to the selection OF
proper persons to fill the various
places on the Progressive state, con
gressional and county tickets. And

committee appointed to prepare the
details of the Progressive preferen-
tial primary to be held next Satur-
day. This will be the test applied to
those who want to run for office on
the Progressive ticket and to those
who want to vote at the Progress
i've primary.
Those who vote at the Progress
i've primaries NEXT SATURDAY
September 7, must attend the reg
they wish to vote for superior and
supreme court judges.
Candidates for superior and su-
preme court are placed on non-par-
tisan ballots, separate from all par
ty ballots. For the supreme court
there is no contest. Three su-
preme court judges are to be e.
lected and the three incumbents
whose terms are expiring are the
only candidates who have filed.
For the superior court there is
a three-cornered contest, Hardin,
Pemberton and Kellogg being the
candidates whose names will appear
on the nOn-partisan ballot. The con-
test for the judgship will be decided
at the primaries, as the two receiv-
ing the largest number of votes will
have their names placed on the bal
lot at the regular election in Nov
ember.
On Monday the. Seattle Post-In-
telligencer published a resume of the
outlook for Bull Moose success in
various counties of the state, af-
ter having asked its correspondents
to give a forecast of the probable
vote that will be cast. 1t found that
Adams county is expected to give
a good sized vote to Roosevelt; in
Douglas county 20 to 25 per cent of
the vote is Bull Moose; that the
Progressives are likely to draw Is
per cent of the vote in Grant coun-
ty; Kitsap will yield 40 per cent of
the vote for the Moose ticket; that
the farmer vote in Kittitas county
is 80 per cent Progressive, and that
Klickitat has also a strong Progress
i've trend. The Progressives in
Lincoln county, the home of Gov.
Hay will get 60 per cent of the
vote. and it is predicted that Okan-
ogan county will also go for the
PrOgressives. The forecast also say
that the normal republican majority
in Pierce county will be materially
reduced. that Pend O'Reille coun-
ty is strong for Roosevelt, and
that he is strong in Snohomish coun-
ty; that the PrOgressives claim three
fOurths of the republican strength
in Stevens county; that it is the
general opinion that the Moose have
a chance in Thurston county, where
the state capital is located, and
which has heretofore been almost en-
tirely republican. Wahkiakum is
said to be strong for Roosevelt and
the Progressives are given a men,
bership of 1000 in Yakima county.
WhatcOm county is said by the
P.-I.'s report to show lack of en-
and interest, but local peo-
pie know that the facts are exactly
the contrary, and that the Progress
sives are confidently expecting to-
carry the entire state, county and
congressional ticket.
Spokane county from most relia-
BILE information will go Progressive
all along the line by a decided ma
jOrity.
Congressman Victor Murdock, the
Kansas Progressive, has written a
letter of encouragement to w. J.
Biggar of Bellingham, who is can
didate for cOngressman-at-l on

tiles. l sincerely hope you may be

wish of Progressive party leaders
that only capable and worthy per-
sons are nominated next Saturday at
the Progressive Preferential Primar
les. and not, as the stand pat press
and adherents of Taft's steam roll

decrepit republican machine for po-
litical preferment.
After listening to the party lead
ers with rapt interest, and applaud
ing their remarks with with such
vigor that the echo reached the post

this county, the meeting selected so

INTEREST IN DAIRY FEEDING
Bulletin Of Pennsylvania Experiment
Station Discusses Matter in
Most Thorough Manner.

To those of our readers who make a
careful study of dairy feeding, bulle-
tin ia Of the Pennsylvania expert
ment station will be very interesting.
The principles in dairy feeding are
gone into both in a theoretical and
practical anner In a rough way the
following rules are laid down as good:
/. Feed grain in proportion to milk
yields; that is, give her, for example,
one pound of grain mixture per day
for each three or four pounds Of milk
produced.
2. Feed all the roughage which the
COW will eat up clean, up to the point
where she gains too much weight.
3. Whenever she becomes too fat re-
duce the amount of roughage, leaving
the amount of grain to be determined
by the milk yield.
Food requirements for COWS of diff
ferent weights and COWS producing
different amounts of milk are given
in tables. Most of our readers will
find the methods as described in the
bulletin extremely unscientifc, but af-
ter they have studied it a little they
will find it quite simple and, We be-
lieve, quite practical. Of all the ex-
pertinent stations the Pennsylvania
has done the most scientific work
with feeding stock.-Pennsylvania
Experiment Station
Dakota farmers' leader. (Canton, S.D.) 1890-19??, 1912-09-20
Success in pairyinu.

Success in milk and ALTERNATING
depends largely upon the feed given
to the COW in properly balanced ra-
lions. Cows must have both protein
and carbonaceous foods to do well,
and these may be readily selected in
due proportion. The protein foods
are alfalfa, clover, COW peas, hay,
bran, oilmeal, ~cottonseed meal, oats,
barley gluten meal and soy beans.
The carbonaceous foods are corn and
cornmeal, corn silage, timothy hay,
corr fodder, carrots, sugar beets and
other beets. A good labanced ration
may be made Of alfalfa or clover hay,
silage, corn or cornmeal. These may
be fed in balanced quantity and the
dairyman will 10 see the quantity
required after feeding a short time.
Thirty-five to 40 pounds of corr ST.
!age per day, according to the size
# the COW. are enough.

Where the Gray Hairs Came From.

Where the Gray Hairs Came From.
The attitude Of the commanding gen
erals of the north and south toward
each other, after the final surrender,
writes Mr.. Thomas Nelson Page In
his recent book on General Lee, Is
one that the world regarded with as
constituent, and hat Americans may
forever look back upon with pride. In
Illustration, Mr.. Page offers an engag-
ing anecdote from Longs memoir OF
Lee.
It appears that on the afternoon OF
the day of the surrender at Appomat-
tox, Meads paid a friendly visit to
Lee at his headquarters. In the
course of the conversation, Lee turned
to Meade, who had been associated
with him as his officer Of engineers in
the ''old army" and said, pleasantly:
Meade, years are telling on you.
Your hair is getting quite gray"
"Ah, General Lee" was Meade's
prompt reply, that is not the work Of
years. You are responsible for my
gray hairs"

LATCH FOR A SWINGING GATE
Illustration Given, Together With Di-
rections for Making Convenient
Little Farm Device.

A good latch for farm gates may
be made as shown in the accompany
ing sketch. The slide A is suspend
ed by the hangers BIB, which are
placed on each side of the gate. The
back end of the latch works between
the guides c and the front end be-
tween the end pieces of the gate. The
slide with a slot in the gate
post when the gate is shut.
The hangers BIB. are made in any
convenient length. The holes are
one-fourth inch in diameter and tire
bolts are used as fasteners. The
holes for the hangers should be
drilled one-third of the width of the
latch from it's top to make the largest

skimmiik these days.
Clean mud off of the cows udders
and tanks before milking.

the table after the ninth milking.
A good COW is hard to buy nova

ter for early fall prices because it will
not keep.
Cows fed we'll before turning them
on a heavy forage crop will not be in

her milk, a feed Of something while
milking is often helpful.

prices or little above the year round
For several years we have bought
farm butter from the same farmer at
two cents above retail market price
every month in the year and glad t.
get it.
The day has forever passed wher
the progressive dairyman allows hi
cows to be brought, running or excited
into the barn, by a dog or a boy with
