Progressive Party Dying Natural
Death.

Washington, d. c., Nov. 11.--While
1T is generally conceded here that the
administration has good reason to con-
graduate itself on the victories won
in New Jersey, Massachusetts, Mary
land, and other states, at the same
time it is apparent to political OBJ
servers who have made an analysis of
the returns that the rank and file of
the third party voters are rapidly re-
turning to the Republican fold, re-
CARELESS of the attitude Of their lead
ers.
Whatever deductions may be made
by the different parties from the cleo
ton returns, it must be evident to all
the leaders, including those of the
Progressive party, that the bull
moose herd must soon starve for want
of grazing. In Massachusetts it is
true, the Progressive candidate ran
neck and neck with the Republican
candidate, but the plurality of the
Democratic candidate was large
enough to destroy any lingering hope
in Progressive breasts that the time
will ever come when the Progressives
will be victorious. There was a no.

Delay in Erecting Federal Building.
The refusal of the Democratic con-
gress to provide for an increase in the
force of craftsmen and superintend-
ents of construction in the supervising
architects office is delaying the erec-
ton of federal buildings over the coun-
try for which appropriations have been
made. The department is now three
years behind and unless the force is
increased, it will gradually be further
behind on account of the numerous
buildings heretofore provided for.
Public building act of March A, 1913,
provided for the appointment of COM
mission consisting Of the secretary of
the treasury, postmaster general, at
torney general, and two members of
the committee on public buildings and
grounds Of the senate and house of
representatives, who with the aid of
the supervising architect of the treas
ury is to present to congress con-
nected scheme, involving annual ap
preparations and completion of public
buildings heretofore authorized within
a reasonable time, and shall frame a
standard or standards by which the
size and cost of buildings (public)
shall, as far as practicable, be deter
mined and shall report as to the
adaptability in size, accommodations,
and cost of buildings hitherto author
lied to the requirements of the ccm-
munities in which they are to he To-
Gated, and also whether the existing
appropriations should be increased or
diminished to meet such requirements.
and that the sum of $4,000 is hereby
appropriated for the expenses of such
inquiry.

congress that this will furnish an
other excuse for delay in the construc-

preparations have been made.

ticeable sagging in the vote of the
Progressives, as compared with year
ago, and with plenty of money and I'M
limited energy the Progressives had
every opportunity to show their true
strength.
The showing made by the Progress
sives in New Jersey was so lament
ably weak that it is not conceivable
that the voters of the new party can
be encouraged to remain in the losing
game. The Progressives have dwin-
died to the point where they are
scarcely able to white down the Re-
publican vote. Another election like
that of Tuesday, and they will be only
a memory.
Income Tax Troubles.
AS was to be expected, and perhaps
unavoidably, the attempt to enforce
the new income tax law is meeting
with many troubles, embarrassments
and complications. The people know
little or nothing about it, and are
flooding the treasury office with in
quiries which the agents find Difficult
ty in answering satisfactorily. 1t is
going to be very hard to enforce this
statute as it ought to be enforced, be,
cause so many loopholes are already
manifest in it and it is capable of sc
many different interpretations

uuick-witted as initiative, and so given
to considering himself as quite an
adult in comparison with his baby
brother, that he now and then talks
and acts in a manner that might by
the uncomprehending be judged i'm
pertinent. Not long since at the fam
lily table the boy attempted to relate
a recent experience. His father, who
was talking, paid no attention, and
the chlds anger got the better of
his politeness. Raising his voice
shrilly and speaking with an absurdly
unconscious resemblance to his IA
theirs tone and manner under similar
circumstances, he demanded.

During the past twelve months cat
tie buyers have been &C re in Louis
lana, Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia
and Florida, purchasing cattle to be
shipped to the middle testern mar
kets as either Gamers or stocKers'
The prices paid for Gamers during
this period have been SO high that
thousands Of COWS and heifers have
gone to the shambles which shoulo
have been retained on the farms for
breeding purposes. This is especially
noticeable when the receipts of south
ern cattle at the st. Louis market
for the last IL months are compared
with those for any previous period OF
similar length. The receipts of Ala
bama, Mississippi and Louisiana cat
tie at that market have almost dou-
bled during this period
Since the first of February buyers
from the farms and ranches OF the
west have been securing the gull
states in search of breeding stock. A
few years ago this class of cattle
would have been scorned by the west
ern ranchman as breeding stock, but
with the shortage of cows for breed
ing purposes the ranchers are glad to
get these cheap cows, to which they
will breed good beef bulls. The half
breeds resulting from this mating
make fairly desirabIe~beef animals.
Several thousand cattle have already

them are said to have been shipped
as far as Montana.

mingham, Ala, for feed, water and
rest while en- route to the western
ranges than have ever been seen in
that place before in one day Georgia
and Florida are sending out thousands
of these native southern cattle at the
present time at prices ranging from
SIS to S23 a head for mature animals.
A shipment Of 40 carloads of cattle
was recently made from Osceola
county, Florida, in one day. They
were shipped to Kansas via oklahoma
City. The cattle we're dipped in ar
senical solution before loading, to free
them of ticks, and were to be dipped
again on arrival at Oklahoma City be-
fore going above the federal quaran-
tine line.
Some people of the south seem glad
that these cattle are being shipped
out, as the number of scrub cattle is
being reduced end the south will get
better cattle as result. They do
not look far enough ahead, however,
or they would see that If the short
age of cattle is such as to cause buy
ers to come from the far west to buy
these scrub cattle for breeding pur-
poses, the chances of southern farm
ers refilling their pastures with good
cattle are indeed small, for where are
these good breeding cattle to come
from at a reasonable price? The best
and most profitable way of getting
good cattle throughout the south is
to breed up the native cattle by the

use of pure-bred bulls. and by castrat-
ing all scrub bulls at an early age
The south is especially adapted 10
raising cattle, because of the long
grazing season, the enormous areas
of cheap land, much of which Is now
lying idle, the great variety OF pas
ture grasses and legumes which gro"
luxuriantly on all soils, and because
of the mild winters.
If the western ranchman can anoro
to pay southern farmers good prices
for COWS, pay the high freight rates
to the west, stand the losses Whlch
naturally occur during shipping thlh
cattle such long distances, also pear
the losses due to a change OF cllmauc
conditions, and then make money on
them, why can not the southern farm
er who already owns the soils, keep
this stock on the farm and secure the
increased profits? He can If he VIII
free his cattle of ticks, increase the
efficiency of his pastures by planning
mixtures Of lespedeza, bur clover
white clover or perhaps mel1lotus'
alsike clover, and redtop over his pas
ture lands; and by raising more nays
and forage crops for w1nterlng MS
stock and finishing them for market
The surplus cattle can then be Iat-
tened by feeding cottonseed cake on
grass, or grazing fields of velvet
beans while feeding some concen
trate; or they can be finished IN the
dry lot during the winter months. for
winter feeding no roughage has prov
en- more valuable than silage, as the
addition of it to feeding ration inva-
rjably increases the size of the daily
gains and reduces their cost, thereby
making greater profits. The quality
and the quantity of silage which can
he produced on some of these cheap
lands cannot be surpassed by the hlgh-
priced lands of the corn belt, whereas
the cost of producing it is far less be-
cause of the cheap labor.
The farmers of the south are there
fore urged to discontinue this whole
sale shipping Of their female cattle
TO other states, to free the pastures OF
tbe cattle tick, and to increase the
number and quality of their cattle by
the use of pure-bred beef bulls, Inc
progeny will not only grow faster ana
make larger and better cattle, but VIII
be far more profitable to raise and TO
feed than are the natives. The SOILS
will be increased in fertility by the
manure. which gives such prohtapie
returns when applied to the cotton
crop and puts vegetable matter lnto
the soil. The amount Of commercial
fertilizer necessary to produce a crop
will be reduced and a more bountllui
WELD will be produced.

feeding cattle in the south and eradi-
eating the cattle ticks may be OBJ
tanned from the Bureau of Cattle In

are also advised to consult the depart
ment's county farm demonstration
