Thomas McCabe, so, a Waterman. as
he left the business office, bound him

Safety Appliances.

DETROIT, Mich. May 19.-Safety
appliances installed in factories and
industrial establishments during the
past year have greatly reduced loss
of life and the percentage of injured
employees according to reports made
today at the opening session of the
annual convention of the National
Association of Manufacturers at the
Hotel Pontchatrain. There was some
difference of opinion expressed In
speeches on the effectiveness of the
workingmen's compensation acts pass

states. Several interesting papers
were read this afternoon In which all
large factories and other industrial
establishments were urged to insti-
tute apprentice schools. The conven.
tion will close Wednesday evening.
This is the first time in the history
OF the organization that it's annual

BRIDGE COMPANY
DENIED INJUNCTION.
Attempt Of K. & Il. Bridge Company
to Prevent Use Of Dam by
Injunction Proceedings
Fails.
CLAIM MONOPOLY RIGHT
Decision Made by Federal Judge
Humphrey in Federal Court
at Springfield,
Illinois.

The attempt Of the Keokuk and
Hamilton Bridge company to stop the
project of the Intercity Bridge COM
pany to use the big dam as new
bridge across the Mississippi river
here was defeated by the decision Of
Judge Humphrey, OF the United States
court at Springfield, Illinois, filed to-
day, in which the court refuses to
grant the Injunction prayed for by the
old bridge people.
Some Keokuk men formed the Inter
city Bridge company to utilize the
dam as railroad bridge. AT once
the company owning and operating the
cid bridge here became active in op,
position. 1t fled an application for
injunction against the use of the dam
as bridge, claiming that an old act
OF the Illinois legislature gave it a
monopoly of all bridge crossing be-
tween Nauvou and Warsaw This In
junction is denied by the federal court
where the suit was brought.

Oats and Peas.

Every year I am coming to ap.
preciate the value Of oats and peas
as a summer forage for the dairy
cattle and as source Of protein for
winter feeding. These crops are be.
coming more popular every year In
this section. They are very palatabls
and nourishing, easy to cut and han.
die, and come at time when tho
pastures are short and dry.
A succession Of sowings will afford
green feed for a number Of weeks
These crops should be sown as early
as possible and the ideal way Is to
SOW the peas broadcast and pillow them
In about four inches deep with one-
horse pillow. After four or flve days
put in the oats about two inches deep.
They will come up about the same
time and the peas will nll better and
stay green longer for being planted
deep. --
On account of the rush Of work
during the spring and uncertain
weather conditions we usually mix the
two kinds Of seeds and compromise
by drilling as deep as possible, putting
in both kinds Of seeds at one opera
ton.
1 ue ground SNOulQ De rClIeO ana
planked SO that the crop can be cut
with moving machine or scythe.
prefer to use about two bushels Of
peas to one Of oats, although fire.
quently vary the amounts according
to the price of the pea seed.
For cutting green tits best to make
a number of sowings about a week or
ten days apart. Two or three acres
Of good land should furnish enough
forage for twenty-five or thirty cows
for number Of weeks during {
summer.
For winter feed they will produce
more tons Of good feed than clover
hay and will greatly reduce the bills
for grain feed. They should be sown
the same as for forage and cut when
the oats are heading and the peas are
we'll in bloom then the stock will eat
them more readily with no waste.
Do not wait until the oats
formed or there will be diff1cn't;'
experienced in feeding the fodder.
This mixture is worthy a place on
every dairy farm.-W. M. K.

purity. As provided for in the con-
tract between the beet growers and
the sugar manufacturers. the selec-
ton Of land suitable for this crop Is
subject to the approval Of the manu-
facturers' field men or superintend-
ents. As these men are usually ex-
perienced, their Judgment should be
relied upon largely.
Climate naturally has an important
bearing on the desirability Of district
for beet culture, and in {. general way
It may be stated that at least four or
five months Of growing weather are
necessary to the successful production
Of beets. The success which has at
tended this industry throughout the
arid and semi-arid regions may be
attributed largely to the distribution
OF the rainfall. The absence Of rain
at the time Of harvest is an important
feature. In the more humid sections
Of the East and Middle West rain may
cause a renewal Of growth after ma
turity, which results in a great reduc-
ton In the sugar content Of the beet.
The locations. therefore. where mois-
ture Is applied artificially and can
thus be regulated to cause maturity at
certain stage IL without doubt an
ideal field for the successful fostering
Of this Industry.

Cultivate the Burberry,

| Blueberries thrive in acid soils and
there Is a large amount Of naturally
acid land In the east United States
that are fit for nothing else on which
! blueberries could be raised prof1tab bly,
There are two methods of propa.
eating the blueberry plant The first
which Is suited to upland soils. II to
set the plants in trenches or separate
holes in we'll rotted peat about a foot
deep and mulch the surface we'll with
leaves or clean sand.
Give plenty Of room for the roots.
The soil should afford good drainage
as the ideal condition Of the peat
moisture during the growing season.
The second method Of field culture
Is to set the plants in a peat bog after
1t has been drained. turfed and deeply
mulched with sand Just as for cram
berry culture. except that no provision
need be made for rapid flooding Of the
bog for winter. The ground water Of
the bog might be kept little lower
than Is usual with cranberries..
There is great difference between
the genuine BURBERRY and its counter
feit-the huckleberry. The BURBERRY
is plump. large and its seeds are so
small as to be almost unnoticed.~ The
huckleberry's seed Is surrounded with
a bony covering like a minute peat
pit which crackles between the teeth.
The blueberries stand shipment
we'll and II growers will take pains to
insist that their product be not con-
fused with huckleberries and sold at
the same price they will be better of.
