WINTER CARE OF .

Plenty Of Exercise Necessary
to Produce Healthy FOaIS.

One Of the most important points in
caring for brood mares is to give them
plenty of exercise. writes A. c. Becker

use my brood mare in team. but NOT
to do any heavy work which would be
likely to cause strain. Keep her

a chance.
prefer mixed clover and timothy
hay. Feed more grain and less hay.
prefer bran to oats. generally feed
a half gallon of bran and n half gallon
Of chop ut each feed. Give the mare
some roots. as it helps to keep her
bowels regulated, and YOU will be less
troubled with the colt having constl-
patton If you have no roots feed salts
occasionally. firmly believe in work

fresh butter and Il tablespoonful Of
whisky three times day.

constipation than with joint i'll and be-

money that can be raised to what was
produced in 1910, plus certain per.
centages, has been eliminated, but the
per cent maximum remains.
Laws For the Housewife.
In the interest of the market basket
OF the Ohio housewife a new act pro.
vides that whoever combines to fix
the prices of certain food stuffs shall
be fined or sent to the penitentiary.
Dry food products must be sold by
weight instead of measure. unless
there is written agreement to the
contrary There will be no loopholes
hereafter for the dealer who uses
crooked scales.
To conserve the forests of the com.
monwealth, forest lands were exempt.
ed from taxation, not to exceed 20
acres to a farm. The state forester
may take over waste land and plant it
with seedlings. To promote the pub
lie health. the state department hav.
ing charge of such activities was Civ.
en- 100000 to use in a campaign for
the prevention of tuberculosis. Physl.
clans were required to report vital
statistics. The sale of cocaine, NOR.
phine and other narcotics was prohib.
tied under severe penalties, except on
a physicians certificate. Misbranding
of patent medicines was prohibited.
Counties hereafter must send tubercu-
lars to tuberculosis hospitals, and
nurses must be provided to visit con-
sumptives.
The people will vote next fall on
a proposed constitutional amendment
to permit women to hold offices in
state institutions caring for women
and girls exclusively, and a state COM
mission will improve the morals of
theaters bg censoring moving pic.
lures To give the people a more
workable municipal initiative and ref
erendum law, the percentages were
reduced from 20 to 10 per cent and
to prevent fraud and corruption law
was enacted to prohibit payment for
signatures to l. and r. petitions.
Burden of Government Liehtened.
An important departure was the
move to lessen the burdens of the
state government by making self-sup-
porting those departments established
to keep in the straight path corpora
tlons that the commonwealth created.
Along this line bills were passed pro-
yiding schedules of fees from building
and loan associations and state banks.
that will provide sufficient revenue to
maintain the departments regulating
these institutions. A saving of $780,
600 annually will result. Private
banks were for the first time brought
under state control and inspection.
One of the big achievements was the
passage of law providing for the
licensing of the liquor traffic in wet
counties only. Under it a state COM
mission is to be appointed, with depu-
ties in each county where the saloons
have not been voted out, to enforce
the law and license saloon proprietors.
So we'll was this task performed that

Poultry Notes,

II you do not grade your eggs some
one else will and you will pay him for
doing it.
There is no stock that pays a higher
rate Of interest ON an investment than
poultry. although many farmers con-
slider it Of little value.
BY careful breeding and feeding the
Maine experiment station has increas-
ed the average egg production Of some
breeding stock from 100 to IA eggs
per year
Poultry requires plenty Of fresh air,
but not of the drafty kind. 1t Is bet
ter to have a whole side of the house
open than to have the air come through

We hear a good deal said these
days about the high cost of liv-
ing, but all this will be changed
as soon as the Free-Trade tariff
bill becomes a law, and it appears
to be coming without a doubt.
But let us cast our eyes askance
and look at the high cost of our
license machinery. SIS, 900 has
been appropriated for the salar-
les of three State Commissioners;
SIS, GOO for the salaries of twelve
inspectors Of the liquor license
collection; $4,000 for the trav-
elling expenses of these inspec-
tors; $40, 600 for the salaries of
county license commissioners in
fortythree wet counties; $40. 900
for the clerks, stenographers,
&c. totalling $256, 900 for the
whole license machinery, which
includes some interesting items
not mentioned in above detail. |
This is a part of the reform mea-
sures instituted by our last legis-
lature.
Teddy has been vindicated in |
his suit for damages for defama-
ton of his character, the jury a.
warding him six cents as the |
measure of damages sustained
by the publication of libelous
matter. Care must be exercised
how we speak of our good men.

pressed our belief that all of
them will be in vain for the full
fillment of the objects they have
in view until the voter is by law
obliged to vote under the pain of
disfranchisement; and to this end
we have advocated a law requir-
ing a vote at the primaries to be
made obligatory in order to quail
ify the voter to vote at the SUBJ
sequent election.
Now comes the city OF Colum-
bus with convincing proof that
the Register was right, not only
in its diagnosis of the political
situation with reference to min
ority government, but in its sug-
gestion Of a correction and i'm
provement of that situation by
making the exercise of the fran
chise an obligation in order to in
sure voting citizenship. They
held in Columbus the other day |
an election to name fifteen COM
missioners to frame a new char
ter to be submitted to the people
under the amended constitution. |
Out of the $4,000 voters of Col
umbus only 1914 went to the |
polls. The election was one of |
the most important in the history
of the city; the local newspapers
repeatedly urged citizens to go
to the polls; organized bodies un-
dertook to awaken public inter
est in the campaign, and yet the |
result was that one-f fourth of the |
voting population voted for the |
whole. Here was an instance of |
government by the minority, |
clearly indicating the extent and
danger Of American Indifference
to the ballot, but it was the same
IS had been previously observed
In Cleveland. Youngstown, and
other cities, in all of which prac-
tically fourth of the popula-
ton has been the maximum num-
ber voting at elections to select
commissioners for the adoption
of a new charter.
It is useless to talk about cure
all remedies of law for existing
evils, as long as the American
voter will not vote. Bossism,
graft and all failures in national,
state and municipal government
are due chiefly to the fact thai
the interested few vote for the
Indifferent and negligent many.
The qualified voter should vote
or lose his right to do so, to be
restored only when he does vote.
Such a system would have made
nine-tenths of the reform legis-
lation proposed today unneces-
sary and unthought of. Sandus-
ky Register.
