LeTs Contentton-peNelo OF
the Day.
Albany, n Y, Sept. Painless the
impeachment court sustains the con-
aention of William Suffers impas-
stoned defenders that he can not be
tried for alleged offenses that took
place before he was governor, Jacob
IL. Schiff of New York will take the
stand late today as the first witness
for the prosecution. He will testify
that he gave Mr. Sulzer on Oct. IA,
a912, a campaign check for $2,500,
which the candidate did not mention
tn his sworn statement.
AS to whether or not the court will
vote TO quash the most important ac-
cusations of the impeachment man.
ayers by striking out the three arti-
cles relating to campaign money and
classifying campaign statement, as
demanded by Governor Suffers law
yer, no one can predict. But 1t may
be said that the result Is more uncer-
tain than was that of the constitu-
tional conflict as to the validity OF
the impeachment, which the court
has decided against Mr.. Sulzer.
When the court reconvened today
Austen G. Fox of New York started
his argument for the elimination of
impeachment articles /, 2 and g. This
will end the ardent and exhaustive
debate. Then the court will take n
vote, preceded by what promises TO
be at least an hour OF discussion.
II the articles objected to by Cover
nor Sulzer are not expunged by this
vote, Eugene Lamb Richards will open
the real trial with a speech for the
prosecution. Before the first witness
as to Governor Suffers high crimes
and misdemeanors" can be heard
there must first appear formal proof,
demanded by the supreme court rule
which governs this high court, that
the charges were made in proper
form
Secretary of State Mitchell May
will be called for formal acknowledg-
ment that Mr.. Sulzer was nominated
and elected and swore to a statement
OF his campaign receipts and expend'
itures
Alfred +. Smith, speaker of the as
sembly, will swear that the impeach
ment articles were adopted by the
lower house.
Robert f, Wagner, president pre-
tenn of thp apnntp will attaat that the

Cooperative Marketing
BY 7. II. Caldwell. Mason County

CAR LOAD SHIPMENTS-The
manager, being in touch with all the
important markets of the country,
knows the prices offered and the needs
of different markets. Meanwhile the
farmers are busy harvesting their
fruit and drawing it to the company's
storehouses. Their work is then done,
they can drive home and not
worry about the markets and the
prices being paid for fruit. They can
be sure that it will be sold at a price
better than that which they could
have sold for themselves.
AS the markets demand, the man
ager ships carloads here and there
obtaining high prices and insuring
the buyer that the goods are first
class. The packages are first-class, for
the association sends out only fruit
which they are sure is good and they
place the association may also have
The standard grade to which the fruit
must conform when shipped is deter
mined by the laws under which it
works. The association may also have
an Inspector who sees that the pro-
per goods and grade of fruits is put in
each package. When an association
sells only good fruit and these are
marked, it is a proven fact that the
markets of the world never question
the fruit but buy it in large quantities.
1t is due to this very fact that the
western growers have made such a
crop. Their goods have been sold
throughout the country and have
brought high prices, due to their high
standard or market grade. The buyers
know what the packages contain, and
feel safe in buying.
Sometimes, lack of confidence in
the manager is the great distributing
feature. Some growers may feel that
they sell too low or ship too far and
their profits are not as great as they
expect. These farmers begin to ship
or sell outside of the association and
finally the project is discontinued.
The farmers are back at their old
to sell to, and no competent person
to look after their business.
| believe that such an association is
not in direct opposition to the COM
mission men as some feel. The move
ment is not in direct opposition, but
merely a way of the formers putting
themselves up on a level with these
men and then cooperating with them.
They should both have the same end
in view-that is, to market the fruit
Of this or any county with the best re
turns to the men who toll to produce
it.
There are just few of the many
ideas set forth on the subject of mar
keting farm produce, but with little
push and a few suggestions, there is
no reason why the farmers of this
county cannot band themselves to-
gether and increase the profit ON the
crops which they produce.

Preparing Birds For Show

The preparation of birds bred
especially for exhibition, begins at
the time they leave the shell. The
chicks should be Matched from eggs
from good healthy breeding stock in
the pink of condition and mated prop
erly. The chicks as soon as Matched
should be given every opportunity to
make the best development and
growth possible. They are not
handled differently from any other
well kept stock. i find range and
plenty of exercise are big advantages
in developing big, blocky birds.
This month (December) you should
make your selection of show birds and
put them in small coops with plenty
of clean bright straw. A colony coop
is about right, then you can get in
easily to catch and handle them. If
any specimens are not up to the STAN
dard you can discard them, and the
more you handle and look them over
the more liable you are to find dis
qualification, all such birds should be
thrown out. To show to advantage
birds must be in perfect condition
and must have been handled so that
they are not afraid, and may be in
spected by visitors and handled by the
judges, so with all the changes they
will pose and show themselves to the
best advantage in the show room.
After you have handled and sorted
your birds, and have the best by
themselves, as show time draws near
there is much yet that can be done
that will add to the score of your
birds, and this last should be done a
week or ten days before time to ship
to the show. Old birds need to be
carefully gone over and dead stubs of
feathers that failed to moult plucked
out. The plumage can be cleaned and
polished and the shanks cleaned. For
this | find an old tooth brush does the
work well. White birds may be
washed with Ivory soap. Thoroughly
soap and lather to the skin, leaving
it long enough to cut all dirt, then re-
move to a second tub of clean water
where you remove, by rubbing with a
sponge, every substance of a sticky
nature until the feathers are smooth.
Move to the third tub in which the
water has been blued as the house
wife blues the water for white clothes.
This gives the bird the second rinse.
The water used should be luke warm.
After the last rinse the bird should
be wiped as dry as possible, then put
into cage with a slat bottom where
the water may drain off and the bird
may shake himself 1t is best to keep
them in a room where the atmosphere
has been heated to 100 degrees and
when they begin to dry to gradually
cool the room. After the bird is per
fectly dry take a wooden cloth and
slightly dampen with oil of sassafras,
going over bird gently rubbing
feathers, and this will give the bril-
liant and natural color. 1t may be
used on shanks, feet and combs of
birds; however great care should be
taken not to use too much as it is apt
to blister and you must not use much
on the feathers.

skill who will not allow his name to
be used because Of medical ethics. The
advertisement states that the writer
feels it to be a duty to communicate
this invaluable recipe to humanity in
order to save them from similar ills.
The offer is then made to supply this
prescription without charge to any
one who will address a post card to
the advertiser. People who do not
stop to wonder who is to pay for the
advertisement and the return postage
and writing for the prescription are
caught by this fraud and ask for the
prescription. In due course a regular
prescription is returned. This con-
tains a number of ordinary ingredi-
ents and then, under technical name,
will call for a large proportion OF
some patent medicine or proprietary
drug. The recipient takes this to a
drug store to be filled, and the drug
gist finds that he has to buy some
of this patent preparation in order to
fill it. He therefore has to order a
large package or bottle of it, and to
make a profit must charge the custo-'
mer a good, stiff price for filling the
prescription. The customer, of course,
gets what is in effect simply a patent
medicine, which, save that it bears a
druggists label and prescription
number is the same as patent med
icine sold under the makers own
label and in the makers own bottle.
The Government can not reach
these people under either the food and
drugs act or the postal laws, because
the scheme is so planned as to evade
government laws. The deception and
misrepresentation appears in adver-
tisements, circulars, letters, etc., sepa-
rate from the package, and the medi-
cines are seldom sent through the
mails. The best the department can
do, therefore, is to warn the people
to be particularly suspicious of those
who spend money for advertising
space, postage, and letter writing
seemingly out of their love for hu-
mainly. In all of these cases there
is a proft-making scheme back of the
seeming philanthropy.

it should be left open so the honey
that drains from the cappings will run
out at this end into a pail which can
be set there for that purpose. The
box should be about sixteen inches
deep at least and a tray should be
made of galvanized wire netting
which will just fit into the bottom.
When this is in place the cappings
will drop on this and the honey will
drain out and fall in the trough below
where it will run out at the end into
the pail. Keep the cappings well
stirred and leave them few days to
drain if possible after you get through
which will get most of the honey out
of them. Then if you have soral ex-
tractor they can be thrown in it to
render them out. If you haven't one
they can be rendered in hot
water and in either case
they make the choicest of bright yell
low wax. If you haven't the time to
make an uncapping box you can get
along very nicely with cracker bar
rel set over tub. The tub, of course,
should be clean so as not to spoil the
honey, which is of the very choicest.
Of course Gaping meters, that melt
the cappings as you go and separate
the honey from the wax are nicer.
Or the nice uncapping tanks such as
used by the large apiarists. But the
small bee-keeper cannot afford these
as a rule.

In talking and working with the
farmers of Mason county, | lind that
the great problem which stares them
in the face is not that of making two
blades of grass grow where one grew
before" but the problem of selling all
those extra blades at profit that will
pay them for their seasons toll. Most
of the farmers of today have long
studied the science of growing their
croI S, but have left untouched the
subject of proper marketing.
The growth of cooperation among
the farmers of the United States and
Canada has been very rapid in the
last few years, Michigan has kept
apace with the times and has few
very good and thriving fruit growers
associations. The main object OF the
farmers when they band themselves
together in such a union is to secure
a ready market for their crops and
obtain for that crop a price that will
and their seasons work with protlt-
Instead of a loss.
he FIST thing which all enterprises
need with which to carry on business
is money. In order TO obtain this sup
ply, capital stock can be created, the
best and bulk of which would be sold
to the farmers at so much share.
The remaining shares might be sold
out to other interests, but this is not
desirable when some other way of
disposing of stock could be found, as
the farmers must have control of the
work. With that money the assOcia-
ton could erect cold storage plants
in which the farmers could store their
he lynf &c
thus be able to sell when the market
is good. The greater part OF the
money, however, must be spent to
pay the salary of the manager. There
has always been more or less discus
sion as to the size of the association,
but one thing is sure, the larger the
band the louder the music.
Some will ask, "Why do we have to
pay a high salary to the manager =
The manager is the man on whom the
success of the organization, depends.
He should be a man of natural busl-
ness ability, one who is well acqualnt-
ed with the markets and who has had
experience in the marketing of fruit.
The manager should have complete
control over the selling of all of the
fruit produced by each and every
grower. His judgment and actions
must go unquestioned, as he is being
paid for that work. He should, of
course. be under the control of the
president and the board of directors.
In hiring a manager, it should be re-
quired that he give his whole time
and energy to and for the good Of the
association. He should not use oppOr-
tunities that may come up for per
Sonal profit.
The advantages Of such an associa-
ton are too numerous to mention in
this brief article but those given
here are strong arguments in favor
of such a system

The first thing to keep in mind in
raising calves is that the calf is a
baby. The man who will keep this
thought constantly in mind and will
give the calf the thought and care
which its delicate condition merits,
will have very little trouble in raising
calves successfully.
We will briefly outline a very good
plan Of taking care Of calves. A box
stall is best for the mother cow and
she should be put in the stall few
days before she is to drop her calf.
Let the young calf do the first milk
ing. After you are sure that it has
MIXED the mother COW once, sit down
and thoroughly milk the cow and then
give her a chance to drink the milk if
she wants to. Some bran sprinkled
into the milk will often cause her to
drink it when otherwise she would re-
fuse.
Do not milk the udder dry. Leave a
little for the calf and also as a pre-
vention from milk fever The COW will
rarely ever fail to give down her milk
while the calf is with her. Let the
calf help you do the milking until the
milk is fit to use, milking her twice
a day.
Allow the COW a pail full of luke
warm water three times a day, feed
rather sparingly for few days and
keep free from draught and you will
have no trouble with the cow after
calving.
When the milk is fit TO use take
the calf away from her and put it in
a separate building if possible so she
won't hear it bawling and leave it
alone for "a hours. By that time it
will be good and hungry and will not
require much trouble to teach it to
drink. Give it two quarts of the
mothers milk twice day for week.
Then begin to change from whole
milk to skim milk by giving it three
pints of whole milk and one pint of
skim milk and keep reducing the
whole milk and adding the skim milk
so that in about a week the calf will
be getting two quarts of skim milk
twice day.
1t is very essential to keep the calf
hungry. More calves have been killed
by overlooking than have starved to
death.
Keep some nice, bright hay where
the calf can reach it and not trample
on it and some ground oats and bran
nearby, putting in little at a time
until it gets well accustomed to eat
ing grain. Then feed the ground feed
