Steers on Clover.

Cattle receiving a full feed Of grain
can be run on red clover pasture with
out great danger of loss from bloating;
cattle not receiving grain on clover
pasture are never entirely free from
this danger. writes F. G. King. Pur-
due experiment station. in the Breed
er's Gazette. Losses from bloat can
nevertheless be almost eliminated by
taking the necessary precautions.
Some dry roughage should be kept &C.
cessible to the cattle at all times. The
cattle should not be turned on pasture
for the first time while the clover 10
wet with either dew or rain. They
should also be full Of dry roughage 80
they will not eat too greedily Of the
green clover.
The most successful and satisfactory
method of pasturing clover Is when
timothy or some similar grass Is mixed
with the clover for pasture. This
greatly reduces the danger from bloat-
ing and does not decrease the value Of
the pasture.

A New Yorker who had planned
week end trip with his wife fumed
and fretted without avail on the morn

made such slow progress in getting
ready for the journey. At last he fairly
dragged her from the house and into
waiting taxicab. although she kept
protesting that there was no occasion
for hurry. as they had plenty of time.
Arrived at the station, the couple dash
ed for their train and were just in
time to see it pulling out. There"
said the irate husband. didn't I tell
you that we'd never catch that train

Yes said his philosophic spouse

Experienced Hog Raiser Believes gifts
Raise Best litters.
The contrast between gifts and aged
sows has often been dwelt upon,
writes G. P. Williams in the Ohio
Farmer. The man who has bunch
Of gifts is too often like the boy be-
ginning grammar-his suspicious and
prejudices are thoroughly aroused. and
he does not expect much luck with
the young sows. We have tried both
young and old and all ages between.
Our ideas have changed from time to
time. There are reasons for contend
ing in favor Of both young and old
sows.
When young sows are to be winter
ed with the old ones then get ready
for the realization of your fears. Gifts
will be driven from the trough. from
the corn and from the nest by old
sows. They will be thoroughly cowed
so as to be peevish and Ill nourished.
Gifts should be fed differently from
old sows. They cannot stand heavy
feeding and do we'll. They need
growth instead Of fat. They need ex-
ercise. They do not want 500 pound
sow climbing on top Of them in the
nest at night.
Five years ago we had spring litters
from gifts only. wintered together
with no old sows. We had better
averages at narrowing time than ever
since. This spring we have all gifts.
wintered together, az before, fed with
moderation and food designed for
growth. by far moro quiet and care.

We have found no age better for

A SHARE OF THE OMELETTE.

The First National Bank OF New
York, popularity known as George F.
Bakers bank, has made formal ap-
plication for a national charter IN
der the new currency law.
Thus do the actions of the money
trust belle their doleful prophecies.
While this bill was pending, Mr..
Baker protested in the most earnest
manner against the political con-
troll" of the federal reserve board.
He testified that the concentration
of power in irresponsible hands in
New York was lovely and beauteous
altogether, because those hands
his own among the number-were so
perfect that they could do no wrong.
He sanctioned Vanderlips charge,
that the currency bill was like an
omelette composed of four good eggs
and one rotten One-and now he is
calling for his share of that omelette!
The next time Wall street tries to
bully the country with predictions OF
disaster, all anyone need do is TO
point to the words of money lords
before the currency bill passed, and
then to their deeds afterward.-Chi-
cago Journal.

A LIVE QUESTION.

The Des Moines papers and some
other editors who wish to stand with
the political ring at the state CAPT
tol are saying the matter Of the last
legislature voting away from two to
five millions of the peoples money
to mako big park for Des Moines
will become less and less significant.
You wait till the farmers get their
tax receipts in March and sec il they
dose interest in this matter. You
will find that the matter is very much
alive, and it makes no difference who
is running for governor. the voters
will think twice before they vote
for Gov Clarke, who is rushing the
buying Of this land thinking that the
peoples hand will thus be tied.
There will be a reckoning day. Don't
forget that. You can't fool the peo-
pie. They can read, and tax receipts
are the plainest kind OF reading, and
when they are raised about twenty
per cent, as County Treasurer Har-
Ian says they will be in keokuk coun-
ty, there will be something DOING

WALL STREET 'ALARMISTS ARE
SUBSIDlNG,

Those Wall street fellows who
have been trying to alarm the coun-
try and create financial disturbances
have had a jolt when their predicted
falling off in orders for steel now
turns out to be an increase. The last
market report shows that the steel
corporation will show an increase in
untitled tonnage in January, for the
first time since December, 1912. The
company reports an increase in the
volume of orders since the first Of
January. Several of the trunk lines
are still actively negotiating for their
railroad requirements this year,
which, if all placed will mean about
100000 tons. Steel prices are firm,
at from 81 per ton to $3.50 per ton
above the low reported in the last
three months.
Mr.. Beal, superintendent Of the H.
1inois steel plant, which is the larg-
est steel plant in the world, says:
''Practically all the men laid off last
month will be working within few
and by February practically every de-
partment will be running again"
The Wall street effort to produce
distrust seems to have been aban-
doned. The large returns from the
crops which the people are ready to
expend made it difficult matter,
and besides that, the outcome of the
currency measure seems to be per-
fectly satisfactory to them.
In reply to the republican croakers
in the house of representatives, who
have been in such dismal state of
mind, Mr. Underwood said: Before
the elections next fall there will be
an industrial awakening that will
put to shame the panic-preaching
brokers who cry disaster in order to
bring about depression
All this would perhaps have been
changed if there had been failure
OF the crops. That would have pro-
duced distress and it would have
been attributed to the democratic
administration. 1t cannot be too
often stated that successful agricul-
ture is the basis of all property
