cHURcHILL's SHARP REPLY.
Belfast Home Rule Meeting May Rs-
suit In Riots.

Belfast Home Rule Meeting May Re-
= suit In Riots.
London, Jan. 29.-Winston Churchill,
FIRST lord Of the admiralty, is out In a
rather sharp reply to the last letter OF
the Marquis Of Londonderry, chairman
of the Ulster unionist council. In refer
ence to the home rule meeting to be
held In Belfast under the auspices OF
the Belfast Liberal association on Feb
8.
Mr.. Churchill begins by repudiating
the statement or insinuation in the let
ter Of Lord Londonderry that Ulster
hall, where the meeting was to have
been held. was deliberately chosen for
the purpose Of Irritating the Unionists.
He says that he had nothing to do with
the hiring Of the hall. The drst lord OF
the admiralty snubs Lord Londonder-
rvs offer to guarantee that there will
be no interference with the home rule
meeting II 1t Is held outside what Is re-
garded as the Unionist section. He
says he prefers to and will rely upon
the law and the sense of justice OF the
citizens of Belfast to see to 1t that
there is no interference with the meet
ing and is confident that unless q riot
is purposaly organized there will be no
trouble.

EnIToa EVENING NEWS: 49,
May I be permitted to make o
suggestion in your publication,
which | think should appeal to your
readers as well as the public In gem
eral.
/ belong to a New York society
non-politicaI and non-religious--its
only object Is to name everything
that can be named with the word
American .
The society's motto may be said
10 be as follows:
First. The name of u country is
America.
Second. The symbol Of the coun-
try Is the American flag and
Third. The language spoken Is
| the American
It is regarding the name Of our
Language that / desire to mako a few
remarks.
In this country with It's population
of eighty millions Or more, 1t sounds
livery unpatriotic to hear people say:
speak English"
Now the fact is We do not speak
English, but Americana
Our language originates from the
English, but In many respects, quite
at variance with it.
If In England the English people
win tell you that. YOU are an Amer
lean and that you speak American!
On account OF our accent and wrons
pronunciation in speaking pure Eng
fish, make the people come to this
conclusion.
Our books written by Americans
are a literature for itself and Is
called the American literature, why
then, should not the language be
the American?
Our pride should be in u every
day life to say:
] am an American or American
citizen, and speak Americanl =
/ want to appeal to the honorable
members of our school board and
enlist their support in this cause

General Strike If Higher
Pay Is Not Granted,

indianapolis, Ind, Jan. 29.-If the
operators here for q conference with
the miners fail to agree to the demand
for increased wages, the latter will
strike. This, In brisf Is the verdict
of the caucus ofsof1cers and members
Of the national scele committee Of the
United Mine Workers OF America. The
miners want an increase OF 10 cents a
ton. and the operators demand an
equal decrease from the present scale.
1t was believed that the operators
would be willing to renew the present
scale. and the opinion was general
that the demand for a reduction was
merely a bluff. but tie Conference de
termined that nothing s1ort of an In
crease would be satisfactory TO the
organization and that a strike would
be necessary to enforce IT, 8
After the conference some of the
miners privately admitted TINT the
organization was not In a position
financially to declare a strike and that
inc would be hopeless unless the ma
jorfty of the members Of the organiza
ton could be continued at work. SO az
to respond to assessments. The opIn-
len vas expressed though that the
operators in some districts would
grant the wage demanded and that
this would enable the organization to
carry on the strike where the terms
are not complied with. 1t was said
that district settlements had been ap-
proved In the past because OF this fact
and that it would be policy OF the Off
GERS to make such settlement when
present contracts expire. SO as TO keer

Aes4 Crop evsry Fourth v.sr.

Few persons realize that large por-
tion Of Germany Is but a sandy plain
and her enormous crop yields due to
the fact that for each three acres Of
cereals grown her farmers raise one
acre Of hoed crops, thus producing a
root crop on each field every fourth
year. They grow sugar beets wher-
ever possible and are the greatest pro
ducers Of this vegetable in the world.
10 thoroughly do they appreciate the
Influence of a root crop on the yield
Of other crops that in sections where
there are no factories to which they
can sell their sugar beefs they grow
beets or other root crops and feed
them to stock as they do in Great
Britain. But where there are sugar
factories the farmers secure TIE double
advantage Of first selling the crop for
eugaf and then hauling its full feeding
value back to the farm in the residue.

PERFECT NeM
NET SEED N SIGHT

The Department of Agriculture at
Washington is run ON the principle
that small perfections mean large prof
Its. This is exempliiied by the fact
that the government scientists have
tried for ten years To develop a certain
type of sugar beet seed. The perfect
seed is now IN sight. Its establishment
will mean an annual gain Of from S11.-
000Wo to x13.000.1Do to the sugar beet
farmers of the west.
The possibility Of developing the per
feet seed was called to Secretary vii
sons attention by Truman G.. Palmer,
secretary of the United States beet
sugar industry, in 1902. Secretary Will
son was confined to his home with a
severe cold at the time, but he grew so
excited about the matter that he for
got his cold and started his scientific
men at work Immediately.
Here is the story of what the perfect
beet seed will do for the farmer:
The sugar beet crop needs unusual
care. The seed is drilled in rows. sew
eral beet seeds being planted to the
Inch. When the beets are up laborers
go through the fields with hoe and
"block" them out. leaving single
small bunch every eight inches. md
here the trouble comes. for beet
seed is rarely single seed. Il nor
mall- contains several beet germs
perhaps as many as six-so the little
beet clusters must I've thinned Labor
ers go through the fields on hands and
knees, grasping one hardy beetlet he
tween the thumb and forefinger Of
fhe left hand. while with the right
they pull out the remaining beetlets.
II this operation is not performed at
Q certain period In the development Of
the beetlets those left to grow will die
BY great labor the government sci
entists secured 1000 single germ beet
seeds. As only per cent of beet
seeds are normally single germs. over
200000 seeds had to I've minutely ex-
amined for this selection II to- k two
years to secure the first generation Of
the selected plants, for the beet is a
biennial. The hest plant yielded 26
per cent OF single germ seed. In the
second generation one plant yielded 20
per cent single germ seed The fifth
generation has just been reached and
shows one plant yielding over 80 per
cent of single germ seed Probably IN
Q few more generations the constant
single germ seed will be a renlity.
As result the beet farmer will save
from s. to IS an acre on hand Labor.
and 1t is estimated that his average
tonnage will he increased from one
Third to one-half. thus adding from
e23 to $26 to his profit per acre.

h EsAsl nsvss Dissass

DIR NJ r. Black stock, veterinarian,
who was sert by the Gsnnison
County Stock Growers association
TO investigate the disease which has
caused the loss of thousands OF
horses in the eastern part Of Colo
rado, in Kanss.s, Nebraska and ad
joining states, has returned TO Gun
nison, and is prepared to make a
report Of his work.
DIR Blackstock SAYS that this
disease, which is cerebro spinal
meningitis, although checked by
cold weather, may break out again
in the spring, and that there is no
reason why it should not spread TO
this section Of tine state.
The belief first held by many ex
perts that this terrible loss Of horses
was due to forage poisoning has
been abandoned by most of those
who took part in the extensive in
vestigation.
DIR. B F. Kaupp, Of the Colorado
Experiment Station at Fort Collins,
was among the first to suspect that
the disease was spinal meningitis,
and he was the first veterinarian to
prepare vaccine.
After the work of innoculating the
exposed animals with this vaccine
was begun. only one out Of 40
vscciDated horses in Colorado died
from the disease. In Kansas only
l9 out of 2000 horses died after
Vaccination
DIR. B. I. kaupp, was chief of the
experimental work in Colorado and
associated with him were DR. George
H. Glover, dean Of the veterinary
department of the Colorado Agricul-
tural College, DIR. c. V. Williams, a
veterinarian of Lamar, Colo, and DR.
NJ r Blackstock Of Gunnieon. DR.
ID. NJ. Campbell. editor of the Ameri-
can Journal of Veterinary Medicine,
was in the field for a time.
Besides the aid offered by the
Gunnison County Stock Growers
association through its representa-
tive, the work WAS financed b,
Powers, Bent, Otero, Pueblo anc
Crowley counties.
DIR. Blackstock has placed on dis
play in the Stock Growers head
quarters several pictures showing
the actions of horses at differeu
stages Of the dread disease.
Dr.. Blackstock, who j. . Gunni
con county boy, is . graduate Of th,
veterinary department of the Colo
rado Agricultural College. He ha
proved himself An able vetrinaria,
and he has won wide recognition
