STOKES'S PETITION.

The petition being circulated in
this city on behalf of the nomination
of former Governor Stokes for the
United States se%natorship brings the
former governor into the limellght
once more. 1t Is true he has never
allowed himself to get out of the
rays for any great length of time, but
at present he m before the peo-
pie with an appeal that is different
almost from II of the others.
Mr.. Stokes, to a certain extent,
may be considered a "middle-of-the-
road man. This does not mean he
is a Populist, or any other of the
"isms," but he is, as far as we can
find, a candidate who Is neither as
ISOLATED with the Taft followers to
any extent, O with the Roosevelt
followers, in SO far as to go into a
separate progressive movement out
side of the Republican party.
The former governor, if we mis-
take not, was the original Roosevelt
man in New Jersey at the recent
residential primary. He backed the
former President for the nomination
and has been favorable to his candi-
dacy until he has become convinced
that Roosevelt intends to split away
from the Republican party entirely.
Here Mr.. Stokes draws the line. He
refuses to leave the party and, al
though he can see little hope for the
reelection of President Taft, he is
willing to stand by the party for the
sake of the great work it has done in
the past, qnd hopes the future may
bring something better.
Former Governor Stokes has many
things to recommend him as a public
official, but the Independent voters
of Middlesex county can never forget
that 1t was he who gave Theodore
Strong a new lease on his political
life when he re-appointed him a
member of the State Board of AS
SCISSORS. Strong had been absolutely
repudiated at home. The Republican
party was done with him and there
was every reason for turning him out
OF state office. 1t was only after
Strong had come out, over his own
signature. in a pledge to retire from
politics. pledge which he repudi-

MUCH NEEDED IMPROVEMENTS

1t is gratifying to know that at
last something really worth while Is
to be done for the road from this city
to Railway. While 1t is true some
repairs have been made to this high
way, yet it was only because 1t had
become impossible and should, by
rights, have been closed to the pub
lie. This is the main thoroughfare
between Newark and the cities north,
and the seashore resorts, and for
that reason Is extensively used. On
its condition rests, to a large extent,
the reputation of the county. In
stead of being the first to be put in
condition, however, it has been left
until last while roads in the south
ern end of the county have been
practically rebuilt. 1t Is noticed, too,
that the money to do the work comes
from the state, out of the automobile
fund, and not from the pockets OF
the taxpayers of the county. And we
are not sure but this selection for
the expenditure of the state money
was made by State Road Commits
sioner Stevens, who is able to see the
real Importance of the highways In
the northern end of the county. The
attention of the New Brunswick
newspapers is particularly called te
this fact, as they are making a great
hulabaloo over the fact that the
| county has been called upon to spenc
$4,000 for affording more or less
protection to factories in this vicinity
| which are the largest contributors tt
the county treasury.

Florida farmers and dairymen have
In the velvet bean one of the cheapest
and best dairy feeds. Experiments
which have been carried out at this
station indicate that the velvet beans
are nearly equal pound for pound to
cottonseed meal for milk produc-
ton
The first test was conducted during
the winter of 19OS-9. The results
showed that 267.75 pounds Of velvet
beans in pod produce as much milk
as 94.5 pounds OF cottonseed meal.
When 267.75 pounds of velvet beans
In a pod were fed with wheat bran
and sorghum silage. the cows gave
1855 gallons Of milk. When 945
pounds of cottonseed meal were fed
with wheat bran and sorghum silage.
1883 gallons of milk were produced.
The cost per gallon of milk, not in
Guiding labor. was: velvet bean ration.
1873 cents; cottonseed meal ration.
1871 cents. This shows a slight diff
ference in favor of the velvet bean ra-
Uon. The same test was repeated du-
ring the winter Of 19O9-1O. In this
test, SIG pounds of velvet beans in a
pod, when fed with wheat bran and
,silage, produced 1855 gallons of milk;
while $40 pounds of cottonseed meal
produced 32S gallons of milk, when
fed with wheat bran and silage. The
cost per gallon of the milk was, with
the velvet bean ration, 1874 cents Tin
Guiding labor, II cents); and with the
cottonseed meal ration, 1917 cents
dncluding labor, 20.5 cents). These
tests show that the velvet beans, as
a feed for milk production. will pro-
duce as much milk as will cottonseed
meal, and at less cost.

CREATES 0PALS WITH SILICA
Lawyer Has Secret Process of In.
Jecting Fire In Manufacture
Of Precious Gems.

Independence, Mo.-After working
patiently for Is years, never for
moment forgetting his cherished am
oition, William Rose. a lawyer of In
dependence, has discovered a secret
process for manufacturing opals of
the precious variety.
About all that he will tell is that
the opals are made of silica. He has
known for a long time how to make
the jewels, he says, but only recently
discovered how to inject the fire into
them. The iridescence is there, but
can only be seen under a glass.
The inventor says, however, it is
now only matter OF a short time
until he will bring the colors to tho
surface.
