William Scott.---The proposed ten
year range leasing law would give too
much power to the large cattle owners
and tend to exclude the homesteader,
the small stock grower end the pros
pector. These small enterprises in the
aggregate develope any country far
more than any single project could,
make homeS for many people while
the large lease provide for few.
The public domain should in my opin-
ion be kept for the benefit Of the
many.

F. D. Coburn.--We can find no rec
ord of time when alfalfa was not
in some part Of the world appreciated
as an important factor in profitable
hrsbandry and benefaction to agri-
cultural. The progenitors of our race
in far middle Asia depended upon it
as forage, and its virtues as pastur-
age were held in highest esteem.
Hence, for example, who cen gainsay
that whe to reso-e his lost manhood
it was decreed that Kirg Nebuchad-
nezzcr should Craze with the beasts
of the field it was not a dewy alfalfa
pasture in which he found h-aling and
by which his kingdom and honor were
r gained. 1t is marvellous that this
plant, so old IL the worlds agricul-
ture, should come to SO many people
after thousands of years as an tmtz-
ing revelation.

Howard L. Rann.-What las become
of the old-fcshioned father with hand
like a sugar-cured ham who used to
spank u wcyward son until he had to
stand up at his meals for a week?
Owing to the degenerate trend OF these
effeminate times. spanking has be-
come a lost art II has been succeed
ed by moral suasion and the power OF
love. Well. moral suasion is q good
thing to have about the house. like an
assortment OF pink pills. but there are
times when nothing will reach the
spot with so much force and earnest
ness as 4 sound, six-ply spanking. APP
piled in cool. calculating spirit For
Instance, VIXEN boy gets in the habit
OF staying out all night trying to fill
an inside straight or seeing who can
lap up the most beer in passing
given point, moral suasion will do him
about as much good as reading the
36th chapter of Genesis to him.
H. r. Nelcon.--We could have rural
credits or almost anything else we
want within reason.if only the major
ity of us make up our minds at the
same time and then hang together
until the COWS start vending their
way homeward. Every one knows
that the man who owns a little land
and wishes to borrow money has the
best security in the world. And that
he has to pay about twice what any
one else would have to pay Is equally
we'll known and has been known ever
since the woods burned over. We may
continue to be filled with this informa-
ton for another century and nothing
will come of 1t unless we sit up and
take a little notice. When the farm
folk really are working together In
harmony for their own interests they
will get cheaper money and many 9th
er things Meanwhile we shall have
to continue to squeal about existing
conditions and wishing for better
things wnile the majority are deliber-
ately making up their minds.

CREW ESCAPED
WIRELESS MESSAGE ENDS HOPE
THAT OTHERS WERE RESCUED
FROM THE WRECK.

New York, Jan. 6.-HOre that eight
more OF the crew OF the tank steamer

southeast of Sandy Hook Sunday night
have escaped death in an open boat in
which they left the vessel was aban-
doned larly today on the receipt ot

CT the revenue cutter Seneca that
went to the assistance of the distress
ed steamer
Capt. Graalf, of the steamship Ba-
varia, which picked up Capt. Gunter
and seven of the Oklanoma's crew of
40 men, reported by wireless that q
beat containing eight men was seen 10

Picked up one Of the Oklahoma 5
boats with three bodies in it. Have
seen nothing OF the stos mer.
"(Signed) JOHNSON"
The other men who left the Okla
homa in the boat picked up by Capt
johnson are believed to have been
washed overheard by the waves.
That the plight of the Oklahoma
was caused by the unusual occurrence
of a ship breaking in two, following
terrific battering cf the seas, is the
Impression OF shipping men today.
The belief is based on the wireless
advices sent by Capt. Gunter and on
statements of officers Of ships that
rushed to the rescue
The Bavaria with the survivors
aboard was due to arrive in Boston
this afternoon.
