BRINGING up a Doc.

A writer in Country Life In America
gives some advice on the bringing up
Of a dog. AS he tells it, the process
looks easy enough. The first and most
important lesson for a pup to learn is
to stop anything he may be doing when
you say stop" and to continue when
you say IAN right" II well learned
his will explain to him all future COM
mands. After this comes the lesson to
lie down when you command Down"
and to stay down while you leave him.
For this latter 1t is best to tie him to
something and then II he does not drop
when you call Down from a distance
return quickly and. scolding. push him
down forcibly. A caress and a taste OF
food should be his reward II he does
right.

NOT FOR FARMERS BENEFIT.


/ From jacksonville Times Union.
The government distributes $5O,-
0OO,000 to aid in moving the crops
but the producers get none OF 1t tc
encourage them to raise more crops
TO be moved next year. The middle
man, the buyers and the commission
merchants are the men Denented
Those who thought the farmers con
dition would be improved are learn
ing their mistake. There seems to
have been an impression that ii
would be.
In fact. the money was distributed
to move the crops the farmer had al
ready raised-not from the farm so
much as from the hands of those
who have bargained with the farmer
to buy his crops at such figure as
will give them the most profit, and
as the farmers necessities may COM
pei him to accept. The purpose was
to relieve the annual strain on the
money centers.
AS a means of getting the crops
more quickly from the fields to the
markets without making money I'M
duly tight, and thus hampering bust
ness-and speculation-the dtstribu-
ton of millions of dollars loaned
from the national treasury may be
useful to some classes Of citizens. 1t
would be well if congestion could be
prevented in moving the crops from
sources of production to centers Of

for the transportation man, for the
but as to the producer, the
of his condition is not
so clear,
This was an extraordinary step,
that of loaning the accumulatiOns of
the peoples money in the national
treasury for the sake of facilitating
commerce. but the wisdom of trans
ferring a glut from the railroad sta

The great markets of the country re-

lion of the great problem of market

Huerta is a rarely perplexing propo-

The Mileage Pull,

The mileage pull question,
which nearly everybody had lost
sight Of, is again before the public.
The Georgia supreme court has
handed down a decision UNFOLDING
the act which requires that mileage
be pulled on trains leaving cities that
have a population of less than TO-
OO0. The decision is victory for
the travelling men, but it is doubtful
if it will be of much benefit to them.
The Interstate Commerce Commits
sion has ruled in favor of exchanging
mileage for tickets, SO that the Geor-
gia decision applies only to business
inside the state. The railroads have
the option of appealing to the fed
eraI courts, of Withdrawing inter
ehangeabIe mileage and selling book:
good only on their own lines, or t.
stop issuing mileage altogether. /
is probable they will do one of thu
three, in which event nothing viii

FIOgging Criminals.

An interesting question was raised
in congress by Representative Evans
of Montana a few days ago when he
proposed that the United States at
torney-general should bring injunc-
ton proceedings against the state Of
Delaware to prevent the whipping of
two convicts as a "cruel and unusual
punishment" under the eighth
amendment of the federal constitu-
ton. The resolution was blocked by
adjournment. Whipping as a form
of punishment for certain offenses
is now recognized in a number of the
states. and most of the judges who
pass such sentences do not consider
them "cruel and unusual" The Of
Tense of the Delaware cOnvicts was
aggravated burglary. 1t is claimed
that the liability to corporal punish
ment has deferred criminals from
larger cities from operating in that
state. and the Delaware officials dc
not desire its abolition. That, O
course, would be within the prov
ince of the state legislature, and 1t Ii
doubtful if an injunction could b'
obtained against the judges.

An honest confession is said to be

cient to return him to private life.
No more braZen statement was ev-
er uttered on the floor of the house

patriots, give ear:

Mileage is allowed members OF
congress on trips between their
homes and Washington to the extent
of twenty cents per mile. In Mr.
Thomas case his mileage bill would
amount to about $240. His total
expense would not be over $50. He
would thus realize a net profit Of
about $3.50.

SAVE THE BLACKBIRDS.

From the Goshen Gnd) News.
Charles Bryner, well known in
EIkhart county, says: Spare the
bIackbirds." His reasons are that
during the fall of 1912 he noticed
swarms of blackbirds in his corn
field and took special pains to watch
their moves to see whether they were
destroying corn or bud worms. Inva-
riabIy they destroyed the latter by
the hundreds, as he could see them
light on the ends of the ears of corn
and very soon the bird would ex-
tract a bud worm, one of the great
est menaces to the corn crops of this
country.
1t was but a few years ago that
these worms worked only on the
sweet corn in this latitude, but now
it is common occurrence to see the
whole fields affected of the common
variety of corn.
In the Southern states the bud
worm is one of the greatest pests on
growing corn, and after corn ma
lures south of Middle Georgia the
corn weeviIs destroy the hard grain
Unless corn is slip-shucked farmers
are unable to keep corn later than
June the following summer.

A PROBLEM FOR GEORGIA.
From the Savannah News.

From the Savannah News.
The failure of Louisiana to refund
her Az per cent bonds at par sug-
gests that Georgia may have a SINH
lar experience in the near future.
She has very large amount OF bonds
coming due a year from next Janu-
airy and she has been expecting to
refund them at lower rate of inter
est than they now bear. Some OF
them are 4 p per cent and some OF
them are u per cent bonds. Unless
the market for bonds greatly i'm
proves between this time and the
time of their maturity it is practical
" certain that she will not be able to
refund the p S at par and may not
be able tor refund the 4 Il s at less
than their present rate of interest.
The constitutional convention of
Louisiana was compelled to author
ize the selling of p S below par.
What price they will bring is prob
Iematical though it is probable that
many holders of bonds that have ma
tured will be willing to exchange
them for p bonds.
For some reason or other there has
been depression in the bond market
for a number of months. Is it be-
cause. as Mr.. J. J. Hill, the railroad
magnate and ftnancier, said, namely,
that the country was "water-logged'
with bonds? 1t is fact that there
has been a tremendous output of
| bonds in the last few years. Not only
counties and municipalities have
been issuing bonds for all sorts of
i improvements, but railroads have
been putting out all the bonds they
could sell at anything like a fair
price.
In this state no plan has yet been
matured for refunding the bonds that
are soon to come due, but the legis-
! lature at its next session will have
to make some provision for refund
ing them. The fact that the state
has a good sized floating debt may
lessen the ability of the state to re-
fund her bonds on as favorable terms
as she might if there were surplus
Instead of a deficit in her treasury.

Women Place Hunters Unpleasant to Contemplate

clans of Colorado is natural, and the
spirit that impels it is inevitable; but
it is an indication, whatever other
results there may be from votes for
women, that the number of office
seekers will be largely increased, will
probably be doubled, and may be
more than doubled. 1t will be seen
that the women base their claim to
patronage plainly on political ser
vice" on the very old and very bad
doctrine that ito the yictOrs belong
the spoils." In this they are certain
ly no worse than the men. But that
doctrine has cost millions of wasted
money and a vast amount OF corrup-
ton and decentralization in the pub
lie service, and the check that finally
has been administered to it is the
fruit of years of patient effort. 1t is
discouraging to think that the ranks
of the place hunters are to be re-en-
forced by the women voters.

A National War on Liquor,

The conference of the temperance
organizations, church and numerous
other public bodies at Columbus,
Ohio. is generally looked upon as a
prelude to a vigorous fight against
the legalized sale of liquor, which
will be carried into every congress
sional district of the country at the
elections next year. The aim is the
submission of an amendment to the
federal constitution absolutely pro-
hibiting the liquor traffic. Those
congressional candidates suspected
of fayoring the trade will be opposed,
irrespective of their politics.
Illinois affords an illustration Of
how well the supporters of the pres
ent campaign are organized. In Chica-
go the Anti-SalOon League has 1000
committeeman and 1900 in the
rest Of the state, members who have
an official standing beyond being a
part of the rank and file. The me-
mortal for a constitutional amend
ment will be laid before congress on
December 10th by a committee of
1000, and that will mark the open
ing of the real fight.
About 70 per cent of the area of
the United States is now listed by
the league as dry territory, and it
is proposed to make the remaining
28 per cent dry at one sweep. The
dry section contains 46,O00,000
population and of the balance one
fourth live in six license cities. There
are sc states where the aggregate
number of saloons is less than the
number existing in New York, and
there are more saloons in the single
city of Chicago than in all the IS
states of the South.
Driven from the rural sections the
liquor traffic has entrenched itself in
the great centers of population,
where it has created a mighty city
problem.

The Constituencies as one OF
the warning factions in Mexico call
themselves, have captured the city
of Juarez, opposite Ell Paso. 1t has
been taken" no less than six times
since Madero opened his revolution
nearly four years ago. One Gen
eral" Pancho Villa, a brigand and out
law few years agone, is in power at
Juarez now. No sooner had he won
his victory and grouped his prisoners
than he began to execute them sum
mariIy. He had federal officers shot
by twos and fours, with no semblance
of trial, because they were on the
opposing side and in his power.
BIoodthirstiness and violence seem
to be a trait common to both sides in
Mexico.
