Profit by Acts Of Criminals.

One of the most striking results Of
the Battle Of Stepney," a year Or
two ago in London. England, was on
the profits Of %gunsmiths. The auto
matte pistols used by the besieged
bandits in their desperate fight with
the police and the guards were ex.
tensively described and illustrated in
the press. Till then the automatic
pistol had barely been heard Of by
the average Englishman. Since then,
however, gunsmiths have sold as many
automatic pistols in a week as they
had previously sold in a year. A big
successful safe robbery. curious as 1t
may seem. does good. not harm. to
the safe business. Firms which have
to keep large stocks OF cash or valu-
ables on the premises are apt to dis
card their FIVE or ten-year-old safes
for the very newest types. The safe
makers are always working a little
ahead of even the most skilled Of safe
breakers, and the very newest Of safes
are known to be quite safe for a few
years, until the scientific safe-breaker
catches UP. So safemakers chuckls
after a big safe robbery.

SUMMER RATION FOR HORSES
Feeding Ear or Shelled Corn Would
Be More Desirable Than Grind
lng-One Good Combination.

If corn must be fed to the horses.
grinding it will not pay, unless the
horses have poor teeth, in which case
It might be advisable. Feeding the
ear or sAelled corr would be the more
desirable method of feeding.
Crushed corn and cob meal Is not
as good because of the cost OF crush

cured from the cob is SO small that
It does not make up for the energy
required to digest so much crude fl.

A combination of corn. bran and a
little oil meal make a good summer
ration for horses. Feeding a 1000
pound horse about ten pounds Of corn
and three pounds of bran per day
would be equivalent to IA pounds
OF oats, although it contains a little
more carbohydrates and less protein.

small amount of oil meal would Offset

BREED HORSES FOR PROFIT
DR.. Alexander Urges Home Production
Of Pure-Bred Stations to Re-
place the Grades.

The principles to be followed by
farmers in improving their horse
stock are: The use of sound, pure
bred sires Of a particular breed, the
use Of sound mares, the feeding and
Ear Of the mare and foal and the
working of the stations regularly. DR..
Alexander, Of the Wisconsin expert
ment station, further urges the home
production Of pure-bred stations to
replace the grades. mongrels and
scrubs o often used at present. He
urges that grade horses replace scrubs
in farm teams. The organization OF
community associations will greatly
facilitate the promoting of horse
breeding and the encouragement OF
the industry may be furthered by
prizes at country fairs for pure-bred
stations, mares and colts.
The evil effects which result from
the use Of unusual sires and dams and
the transmission OF hereditary dis
eases are especially emphasized. 1t
should be easily possible to increase
the value Of Wisconsin horses at least
$40 per head during the mex five
years.. the author points out, by the
use Of sound stations and mares, and
this would mean an addition OF at
least $1,000. 900 to the total value O.
the horse stock OF the state.

Poorly Packed Potatoes and Cabbage
Packed TOO Loosely.

meus. There is neither cash or
character in this practice" A few sec
onds or culls scattered in with a lot
OF fancy specimens gives the buyer
an opportunity to discriminate against
the whole package and ruins the rep
utation Of the grower as an honest
packer.
Produce should be cool and dry be-
fore being packed. Heat and moisture
promote decay. Conditions Of this
kind should be guarded against, for
decay means loss. Allow all fruit and
vegetables to cool in the packing
house, and have them dry before pack
ing. They will keep longer and pre-
sent a better appearance at the time
OF sale If handled In this way. So
much OF the success in marketing
farm products depends upon the pack
4ng. that growers cannot be too par
ticular in seeing that this work is
done in such a way as to show their
produce to best advantage when put
on sale. While It Is OF the utmost i'm
portance that each package be filled
with the same grade throughout, 1t is
equally as important that it be done
carefully. With the softer varieties OF
fruit and vegetables, such as peaches,
plums, tomatoes and egg plant, that
are usually put in small packages,
each specimen should be placed by
hand. This not only makes the pack
more attractive, but 1t lessons the LA
bility Of damages resulting from
bruises. Produce of a firm nature, as
apples, potatoes. ETC., will not bruise
% readily, and as a result 1t is not
30 necessary to handle each individual
specimen in packing.

Same Grade Throughout.
CBy S. B. SHAW

Packing is equally as important as
any of the other operations involved
in the preparation OF fruits and vege
tables for market. There are several
important points in connection with
this work worthy Of consideration,
probably the most important Of which
Is honesty. Every growers pack
should be as good as his bond" Gus
toners want honestly packed goods
and they are usually willing to pay
good prices for them. A grower never
loses by placing honestly packed pro-
duce on any market, be it at home or
abroad.
Each package should be filled with
the same grade throughout. II this
is done the top may be faced" Fac
ing is the arrangement of from n
TO three layers OF fruit on the top, thus
increasing the attractivenees of the
package. This is an honest and per-
fectly legitimate practice provided the
entire contents are fruits Of the same
grade as those placed on top. Sec

DRINKER IS THE MARKED MAN
Announcement by Churchill SHOVE
Evidence Of Widespread Change
In Habits Of Seamen.

In the British house Of commons re-
Gently Mr.. Churchill made a most In

in a somewhat conspicuous anner
how the change in drinking habits has
affected the navy. Heretofore a sailor
who did not want the grog ration, un-
fortunately allowed. has been marked
'T"-meaning the teetotal exception
to the rule. In the future 1t is the
sailor wanting the grog ration who Is
to be labeled. Over against his name
will be the mark "G"-meaning grog.
The position is thus reversed and the
drinker instead of the abstainer will
be the marked man. The change 10

CAPACITY OF AVERAGE SILO

The amount OF silage required and
the size of silo needed to hold it can
be quite closely calculated. provided
the number and kind Of animals to
be fed from 1t are known before
building.
An average COW or beef ANNA.
may be fed about 35 pounds OF silage
per day and the usual period during
which silage is used in this latitude
will be about 210 days, Large ami
mails or those that are being fattened
may consume considerably more than
IS pounds per day. but this has been
found a fair average.
In a silo of ordinary depth. the
average weight OF the silage is about
40 pounds per cubic foot. Near the
top OF the silo, however. where the
pressure is not great. it will weigh
only % pounds per cubic foot, while
at the bottom of a 35-foot silo is may
weigh 60 pounds. Taking these aver
ages, If a cow eats IS pounds OF en-
silage in a day. she will eat S5-40. or
Z of a cubic foot per day. and with
this as a basis it is easy to determine
the number of cubic feet OF ~ensilage
required to feed a Gov or any number
OF cows throughout the season. The
diameter of the silo must be such
that the stock on hand can use one
or two inches OF silage off the top
each day during the winter and at
least three inches per day when sum-
mer feeding of silage is to be prac-
ticed This is necessary TO keep the
silage from spelling.

LIQUOR TRAFFIC HELPS VICE
Thirty Of Most Tawdry Resorts Of

gate Of 100000 Annually.

The results of the painstaking in.
vestigation into vice conditions in
New York. conducted by the Rookie
Teller bureau Of social hygiene, have
been given to the public. The frank
statements Of facts discovered read
like chapters from the history Of the
dark ages. Naming the saloons. the
dance halls and the so-called massage
parlors as recruiting places where In
nocent girls seeking legitimate recrea-
tion are enticed. ruined and forced to
become a part OF the gigantic traffic
In womanhood. the report makes the
accusation that most of the wreck
age, and the worst of 1t, Is due to
persistent, cunning and unprincipled
exploitation; to the banding together
IN infamous enterprises Of madame,
procurer, brother-keeper and liquor
vender to carry on deliberately a cold
blooded traffic for their Joint profit:
a traffic, be 1t added. from which the
girl involved procures at the most,
with few exceptions. her bare subsis-
tence, and shat only so long as she
has a trade value"
The part played in this abominable
business by the liquor interests is
again brought out in the statement
that thirty OF the most tawdry resorts
of New York arm In the aggregate at
least $4,000, 900 annually. exclusive OF
the enormous profits derived from the
Illicit sale Of liquor and tobacco at
exorbitant prices.
Greed for gold is the foundation Of
the whole unholy system, and the
liquor interests with their millions
are back of II all.
Rev. Walter L. Sumner, head of the
Chicago vice commission, gave it as
his conclusion that the saloon is the
greatest supporter of the social evil

saloons made on liquor furnished to
houses of ill-fame $4,000, 900 a year.

saloon is in favor of the white slave
traffic and that it supports the social
evil? 1t protects the houses and as
