DESTROYING PROPERTY.
GOING EAST

The firing of the old Spanish can
non, that stands in front of the city
hall, on Thursday night caused the
destruction of some property, and
might have been the cause of death.
What was termed innocent amuse-
ment might have caused sadness and
sorrowing in more than one mothers
breast, or caused those participating
in the dangerous amusement to be
manned for life. The explosion broke
a number of the large windows in the
city hall and gave the people living
in that vicinity a severe shock. 1t
has been learned that three pounds
of powder were used in firing the can
non-enough to have blowed up the
city property. 1t is to be regretted
that young men will thus endanger
lives and property for few moments
of sport. The authorities are un-
doubtedly endeavoring to locate the
parties, and if found they should be
made to replace the broken glass
caused by the explosion.

there is no trouble along this line an
ticipated. In referring TO the Harlan
controversy the Nonpareil says:
THE city of Harlan is one of the
best county seats in western Iowa.
And there is usually something doing
there One of the latest incidents to
attract attention is the proposal of
the municipal administration of the
city to compel the chautauQua associa-
ton to pay show tax or license. This
plan. or purpose, is so unusual that
other places holding chautauquas are
looking on in something like amaze
ment.
"The chautauqua is an educational
concern SO far as local people are
concerned, who organize, promote and
support them. They stand on a par
with the public schools and the pro-
posal to compel the payment of a Ii
cense is not dissimilar to that of levy
ing municipal tax on public or
parochial school. The only people
who make money out of these con-
Germs are the. bureau people and those
who provide the instruction and en-
tertainment But even if it were pos
sible to tax these people in such
way that it would not be thrown back
upon the community. there would be
no more reason for it than there is
to levy tax upon public or private
teachers.
Generally, where chautauquas are
maintained, there is a body of hard
working boosters who devote time
and energy without stint to the pro-
motion of the programs. They invar-
iably work without pay and assume
considerable financial responsibility
beside. Absolutely all the compen-
sation received from this effort is
the benefit that accrues to the whole
community. The imposition of a tax
would simply add to the burden which
these men generously bear The pro-
posal is so out of place that it is rare
that it is even considered.
1T would seem on the surface at
least, that when it comes to taxing a
chautauqua, that schools, churches,
hospitals and other kindred institu-
lions of kindred nature should be in
cluded. Instead of taxing these an
nual events, the time will come when
municipalities will provide them for
the citizens as schools are now pro-
vided."

Buffalo FaVors Shaw,

A writer on the Grand Junction
Globe, commenting editorially in the
issue of July I'd, of that paper, says:
"A gentleman living in Buffalo, n
y, was in my Office Saturday. In
conversation he remarked this is the
home state of Leslie M. Shaw | re-
piled in the affirmative and he said,
Shaw made the greatest speech in
Buffalo that ever heard fall from the
lips of man some six years ago and
our people hoped Iowa would put
him forth for the presidency. He
took the city by storm. 1t was uni
versally conceded that he was the best
man in public life, so far as the judg-
ment of our people was then ex-
pressed and we wanted him for pres
ident.' That man from Buffalo ex-
pressed what a good many eastern
people thought, but Iowa was not then
so friendly toward Governor Shaw as
it is now. He is a great man, a safe
man and were he in the white house
there would be such prosperity in this
country as has not been known in
generations. Call him standpat, call
him old fashioned, call him what you
please. he would have made a great
president and this republic would
know what it meant to have as presi-
dent a man trusted the world over"

LICENSING cHAUTAUQUAS.

AS the time approaches for the Den
ison chautauqua, there is more or less
talk about licensing the organization
putting on the chautauqua. The city
of Harlan threshed out this PROPOSE
ton last year, and the proposal of a
license is again before the people Of
that city. Denison has never demand
ed license from the chautauqua, but
has charged a reasonable rental for
the use of the park. The amount re-
ceived has about paid the expense of
getting the park grounds in shape
and cleaning up the same after the
chautauqua is over. The city admin
istration for the greater part inclines
towards a no-license proposition, and

Alfalfa important to Iowa Farmers.

The feeding of any farm animal
and especially the dairy cow requires
great deal more thought than most
of US are inclined to devote to the sub
ject. Before any animal can be fed
inte!ligently it is necessary to know
the feeds that will manufacture the
finished product in the most econom-
ical way 1t requires an entirely diff
ferent ration for the milk COW than
for the beef steer In feeding the
milk COW We want protein. which is
the muscle and flesh building mate.
rial contained in any food This is
net contained to any great extent III
such feeds as corn, corn fodder. tim
othy hay, prairie hay or straw. On
the other hand red clover, COW peas,
soy beans, sweet clover and alfalfa
contain a high percentage OF protein
and should be used more largely for
the production of milk.
Practice on the average farm shows
us that the cheapest system of dairy
ing is to raise as much of the feed re-
quired as possible. Although red
clover is good, alfalfa is much better
and contains nearly twice as much
protein as any of the other hays grown
in Iowa. In fact when alfalfa is COM
pared with any of the other crops 1t
is far in the lead as a milk maker. 1t
furnishes protein cheaper than most
of the mill feeds at present prices
and does not require nearly the care
in feeding.
Besides being an economical milk
producer it furnishes good feed for
the growing animal and is extensively
used for this purpose. AS it is tender
and green when properly cut, it gives
a loosening effect when added to the
ration, which is important to the
health of the dairy COW.
Alfalfa besides being an excellent
feed is a soil renovator. Like clover
it has the property of storing nitro
gen in it's root system which enriches
the soil. BY growing alfalfa we are

CITY NEEDS DUMP GROUND.

The question of a city dumping
ground, place where refuse can be
hauled and dumped, is becoming a
erious question with the Denison ad-
ministration. AS conditions now exist
every hollow or low plot of ground
is being used promiscuously by any
body and everybody. Decayed fruit,
tin cans, garbage and refuse from
stables, stumps from old trees, in fact
everything is being deposited in diff
ferent places over the city. The
dumping of refuse near the cement
bridge leading toward the McHenry
farm has been ordered stopped and a
sign has been placed there, but with
very little effect. The hot weather
causes the place to be very offensive
and there is considerable complaint
being made.
1t is up to the city to provide a
dumping ground, and if necessary
land should be purchased for that
purpose. A suitable place should be
secured, with a view to later on as
the city becomes able, to erect fur
mace when all of the refuse may be
burned. 1t is question of only short
time when the city will be COM
PEELED by law to burn everything tend
ing to give offensive odors, and steps
should be taken at once with that end
in view.

building up the soil and establishing

After the first year alfalfa may be
cut from two to five times year, &C.

produces heavily and one can expect
three to five tons per acre. Last year
a number of farmers reported an ar-
erage of six tons. When one CON-
pares this with timothy it is found
that alfalfa will produce four times
the amount Of feed per acre.
Alfalfa growing in Iowa is far past
the experimental stage. 1t has been
grown in some sections for twenty

been cut during the past week on
thousands of farms loacted in every
