ELIGIBILITY NOT A ou1BBLE.

If there Is nothing better upon which
to conduct campaign against Judge
Lee than his alleged ineligibility, the
opposition should save Its energy. It
is a cheap bubble, unworthy OF at
tention.-Iowa City Republican.
I, would be interesting to hear what
the Republican thinks Of the constitu-
tional provision making a district
judge ineligible to any other office
except that Of Judge Of the supreme
court during the term for which he
was elected" What does the proyis-
ion mean? What principle is back
Of 1t?
Judge Lee and his supporters say
that under the constitution Judge
may become a candidate for the office
Of governor during the term for which
he was elected Judge. They say that
it is not even necessary for a Judge to
resign in order to become eligible to
political office while on the bench.
After fling my papers" declared
Judge Lee himself Il resigned, not
because I believed my holding Office
in any way affected my eligibility TO
be candidate for another office com
mencing after the expiration OF my
term, but want to make a campaign
and believe that public officers should
be on the Job while they are drawing
their salaries"
II a district Judge, during his. term
on tho bench. can become candidate
for any Office commencing after the
expiration OF his term what II any
thing, does the constitutional inhlp1
ton mean? Certainly the trainers OF
the constitution must have meant TO
make judges ineligible to some onices
during the term for which they are
elected to the bench. Just what offices
could they be? II in fact Judge is
eligible to the whole slate OF state
offices involved IN the coming gen.
eral election. for what offices would
he be barred from becoming cand'-
date under the constitution? II tho
constitution does not bar a judge from
| becoming a candidate for any onice
during the term for which he was elect
ed, why did the trainers OF that docu-
| ment take the trouble to insert tho
provision quoted above?
The Journal is quite clear in tbs
conviction that the trainers of the
constitution intended to bar. district
judges from candidates for any poll
teal office 1t is just az firmly con-
WINGED that it was intended the par
should apply to the whole term Ior
| which Judges are elcCtcu, tidl
should be SO arranged that judge
could not resign in the middle of1ice.
There conclusions At in with the only
theory upon which the constitutional
| clause can be interpreted to make
| sense.
| The trainers Of the constitution
! recognized the propriety OF treating
the office Of Judge as thing apart
J from the ordinary political office. They
realized that Judge. by reason OF his
| official power over personal and prop
! erty rights. is peculiarly potent TO
reward political favors or punish
political offenses. They wanted to re-
move the district judge, so far as pos
sible. from temptation to use his once
as a means for promoting political
ambition. Hence the provision max
Ing judges ineligible to other than
/ judicial Offices during their tenure on
the bench.

les AID THE TEMPERANCE ASSOCIATION

Mr. " Z. Weston, campaign man
age- for Judge Lee, candidate for gov
amor before the primary. has al
dressed an open letter to D. w. Norfis'
publisher of the Times Republican IN
d.r p release date Of April 50 IN which
he charges the Iowa Business Men

false and apparently malicious a>'acN

bv that association that he was an
enemy 10 the temperance cause ana
thar his election would mean great
check to the prohibition movement in
Iowa Mr. Weston says that Judge
Lee is in northern Iowa, and could not
be reached today, but believing that
such SANDERS should De refuted when
-hev arise. I am writing you this letter
in the belief that you will ind space
and disposition 10 give it the same
publicity as you did the attack.
The report of the meeting Of the
Iowa Business Mems Temperance AS

Journal Of the city in which the meet
ing was held and the statement Of the
action of the association regarding
.Iud-a Lee was printed as current
news However the mes-Repub!i-
"a, Is pleased 10 give publicity to Mr..
Westor's explanation OF the evident
djs,aste expressed by the Iowa Busi-
ness Mems Temperance Association to
his candidate for the govern yrship. Ac-
cording TO Mr.. Weston:
The only possible basis for It is a
decision rendered by him in case a.
Fort Dodge wherein ne held that
consent petition was sufficient and
was afterwards oTeTruied by the su-
preme court.
The findings Of Judge Lee in rhis sa-
loon consent case are, MI. Weston
states, too long for newspaper aTu-
Gle but the gist of 1t as given by Mr.
Weston in his article is:
"C) That II the sgners on the
statement Of consent corresponds WITH
one Of the lists kept by clerk Of the
! last general election and properly re.
served. it is prima faciae evidence
that such person voted at that election
and the signature should not be re-

"f3) That the board Of supervisors

must take some final action as boar

"4) That since the record OF tn

shows that action was not taken upo

given had been revoked by seventy
nine signers, there is no right to is
more their signature upon the state

Thus the matter of dispute betwee
the Iowa Business Mems Associate
and Mr.. Weston, for Judge Lee stand
according to Mr.. Weston's contentio
like this: Judge Lee ruled on cor

TRAINING a Cook.

An Irish servant is, of all people in
the world, the most anxious to please,
and she even desires to do exactly as
she is told, even when the commands
laid on her are unreasonable. In
"The Lighter Side of Irish Life" Mr..
G. A. Birmingham gives an amusing
instance of this trait.
A young housekeeper once under
took to train a cook. One day, 1t
happened that there were whiting for
dinner. She explained carefully the
proper way of cooking whiting, and,
with a view to achieving elegance in
the serving of the dish, added that
these particular fish are usually sent
up to table with their tails in their
mouths.
The fish appeared on the dinner
table, not seductively curled after the
pleasant habit of whiting, but lying
rigidly straight on the dish. Each of
them, however, had its tail cut off
and neatly inserted into its mouth.
The inexperienced cook had most
conscientiously obeyed what must
have struck her as merely vexatious
order.-Youth's Companion.

FARM
POULTRY
PROTECT THE LATE MATCHES
Chicks Are Special Prey Of Rats,
Weasels and Hawks Unless Proper
Precautions Are Taken.

Late-hatched chicks often become
the special prey of rats, weasels and
hawks unless proper precautions are
taken to avoid losses from this
source. These enemies seem worse
in late summer than early in the sea-
son. In the case of rats, this is ac-
counted for by the fact that as soon
as hot weather arrives many of them
desert their hot quarters around the
barns and sheds and take to the old
board and rail piles, as we'll as to the
patches Of thick weeds and grass,
Here they Turk, ready to pounce upon
unsuspecting chicks.
AS to- preventive measures: first,
all harbors near the chicks runs
should be banished and the rodents
destroyed before they have had time
to do any harm. Until this is done
the best preventive measure is the
free use Of wire netting about the
coops, such as screening ventilation
holes, providing screen doors. Nor
must it be forgotten that rodents can
burrow, hence when these enemies
are present floors in the coops are
necessary If losses would be avoided
1t is when chicks run in an open
field that hawks and crows do the
most mischief. When there are trees
or shrubbery in the yards, with a
few convenient shelters of boards or
Ii.
speedily seek protection when bird
of prey swoops down, the losses will
not be great. When hawk or crow
gets the habit Of visiting the poultry
yard regularly, however, as some Of
these birds often do, the only remedy
is to take the necessary time to ex
terminate 1t by the gun route.

the property Of those living near such
institutions is given in a pamphlet is
sued recently by the National Associa,
ton for the Study and Prevention of
tuberculosis. In an extended study
OF the subject the association has not
been able to find single instance
where a tuberculosis sanatorium has
had an injurious effect on the health
of anyone living near it, nor where it
has had any lasting effect upon prop
erty values.
The pamphlet, entitled, "The Effect
of tuberculosis Institutions on the
Value and Desirability of Surrounding
Property" reviews all the studies
made on the subject, takes up court
decisions bearing on the question and
contributes besides some original in
vestigations of typical hospitals and the
opinions of prominent men, life insur-
ance companies and others. Nearly
one hundred and fifty different institu.
lions are studied. In all these institu
lions not one case could be found
where the assertions of opponents to
their location, that tuberculosis san
atorium would spread disease and in
jure property, could be substantiated
In fact, a number of instances were
found where the presence of the san
atorium or hospital promoted outdoor
living, tending to lower the death
rate, and increased the market fol
produce and labor, thereby benetitine
the community.

The "Bauer' Is Austria's Backbone


The most interesting of Austrian
types and the backbone Of the dual
monarchy is the bauer" In social
rank he occupies somewhat the same
position as the old English yeoman,
farming his own land, and in many
cases enjoying far more substantial
fortune than the nobility. The bauer"
has strict social code of his own,
mixing neither with the laborers on
one hand nor the aristocracy on the
other, is apparently quite content with
his lot, and takes pride in his ability
to provide almost all the necessaries
Of life from the productions of his own
land. even, in many cases, growing the

Sanitation in the hog house, lot and
herd is important and no small prob
lem, states the United States depart
ment of agriculture. Swine are affect
ed by many serious diseases and par
asites. tuberculosis, cholera, lice and
mango attack vast numbers of hogs
and cause a consequent heavy loss to
swine growers annually.
Thumps cause great loss in thrift in
young pigs. Sunlight, dry, clean beds
and plenty of exercise with nutritious
foods are essential to proper control
or lesseningrof these losses. Dusty or
damp sleeping quarters are especially
favorable to disease infection, because
they furnish favorable place for
germ life. Dipping furnishes an ex-
<ellent means Of controlling external
parasites, and the dipping vat is an
economical and convenient part of the
equipment of any large piggery. Gal
vanized iron watts are cheaper and cas-
Ter to put up than concrete watts, but
do not last as long.
The hog louise makes pigs unthrifty
and, though the actual loss due to this
cause cannot be estimated because it
rarely kills an animal, it's annoyance
to the pig is an important factor in
decreasing the rapidity with which
gains are made. The louise is easily
and effectively controlled by repeated
dipping in almost any Of the standard
dips, if they are used in strong solu-
tons.
If vat is not available one of the
three following methods of treatment
may be found to suit conditions: CD
Spraying with kerosene; CD putting
up rubbing post filled with crude
oil; 90 putting crude oil or kerosene
on the surface of the water in the
pigs wallowing vat. Mango is seri.

lively treated by dipping.
The brood SOW Is the first animal to
select in laying a foundation for a
herd. The better she is the greater
the chances for success. A good brood
Essex County herald. [volume] (Guildhall, Vt.) 1873-1964, 1914-09-25

SOW must possess depth and length Of
body, a good heart girth, smooth
shoulders, well-sprung ribs and long,
deep, well-turned hams. Her sides
should be long, deep and straight.
A slightly arched, or straight, broad
back is much desired, as it is much
stronger than low back. The back
should carry it's width and the side
lines should be straight. She should
stand we'll up on her toes and have
smooth, straight joints with hard but
not coarse bone, and must have femi-
nine characteristics, which are indi-
Gated by rather small head and ear,
fully developed, even udder, and alb
sence of shields in the shoulders.
A brood sow should show early ma
turing qualities and have sufficient
capacity to do the work for which
she is intended A smooth coat of fine
hair and a broad head with sufficient
weight for her age are good indica-
lions of early maturity. If selecting
more than one sow, uniformity Of the
lot is desirable and important.
The nearer alike the sows the more
probability of the pigs being uniform.
If pure-bred sows are selected. breed
type should be carefully observed.
Breed type" means the characteris-
tics of breed, and will be discussed
later.
In selecting the herd boar the same
points are essential, except that the
animal should show masculinity. A
strong, broad head and neck, sufficient
bone, with strong, straight pasterns,
hook and knee joints are important.
He should show early maturing char
acteristics and have well-developed
testicles. Shields, or thick plates of
skin, should not show on the sides OF
the shoulder before he is one year of
age.
A strong, slightly arshed back, with
large heart girth, is essential in a
first-class boar, for he must have room
for the vital organs, namely, heart,
lungs, etc. Remember that the boar
ia at least half of the herd as far as
breeding is concerned, and he is usu-
5 ally more, so his selection cannot COM
mand any too much care or patience.

well.

THREE BREEDS OF CHICKENS
Heavy Layers Are Not Confined to
Any One Class Is Shown by
Australian Competitions.

{By PROF. DRYDEN. Oregon Agricul-
tural College)
That the heavy layers are not con-
fined to any one breed has been shown
by laying competitions in Australia,
which have extended over period of
six years. :.
In three Of the six years, the white
leghorns laid the most; in two other
years the silver wyandottes won, and
in one year the black langshans stood
first.
These breeds represent the three
different classes of fowls, namely egg
breeds, general purpose breeds and
meat breeds. In 1906-1907 contest,
the pen of black langshans laid an
average of 247 eggs per fowl, the
white leghorns 299, and the silver
wyaEdottes 199 eggs per fowl.
