forty days and had the latter day
progressives assisted we could have
carried the Republican state conven-
ton for Colonel Roosevelt and un-
seated the standpat element I'm the
Republican party in Utah and Utah
Republicans might have been Pro-
gressives like those in Kansas and
California. Why did these latter day
Progressives remain Republicans SO
long? Because they had lightning
rod up for standpat nominations. One
wanted to be governor. another at
torney general, and So on, and only
after defeat was certain do we find
these modern fusing Progressives on
exhibition.
They lay all the blame for their de-
feat on Reed Smoot, the Republican
leader Of Utah, and now propose fu-
sion with the Democrats to defeat
him for reelection to the senate. This
revenge brigade 1t seems, would not
only sacrifice the Progressive party
but the whole people of the state in
order to punish Reed smoot for not
bowling to their will. How Progress
sive Republican. man who believes
in protection and fair and equal rights
can fuse with the present Democratic
party that has placed most of Utah's
principal industries on the free list.
while protecting the east and south
is something I cannot understand. I
believe that protection is right for
the whole people, not for part; and
for that reason l have no desire to
speak into the Democratic tent thru
tent flap labeled Progressive. l

ism when I walked out Of the Chicago

party in the nation and the fact that
the national committee counted us

me my belief in the Republican doc
trines as taught by Abraham Lincoln

Success in intensive cultivation can
come only through thorough knowl-

cation to the work. You must know
how to rotate your crops, that is, how
to follow one crop with another, what
crops to plant for early growing and
what to plant for late crops.

II they are good cows.
Dozens Of dairy farmers are feeding
and milking twenty cows twice per
day each day Of the year. when the
chances are that twelve to fifteen of
the number would pay larger profit.
The whole idea Is to find out which
are the good cows and then give
them the attention they need.
How are you taking care of the ma
nure that daily accumulates on the
farm? This is big item to dispose
OF any very important in connection
with future soil fertility and big crops.
We trust that you are not allowing It
to go to waste.
Mongrel live stock and poultry will

about the blood origin OF every living
thing on the premises. 1t pays to
keep the best and breed the best.

German press over American inter
vention In Mexico can easily be traced
to governmental circles, which imme-
,diately let it be known through In:
spired dispatches that the action was

T There is considerable speculation IN
diplomatic circles over the attitude Of
Japan 1t is thought here that Japan
will interfere to assist. Huerta If he
can bring the revolutionary forces into
one army to oppose the United States.
Some persons here, who say they are
well informed as to Japanese plans,
assert that Japan is ready to land
troops in Mexico others expect to see
Japan seize the Philippines. which
the United States, they think, Is un-
able to defend at present, and then
attempt to take the Hawaiian islands.
II such course be taken Japan would
find little sympathy in Europe. G

England, France and Germany would
unite to prevent Japan from keeping
the Philippines. This much is admit
ted by the Japanese themselves.

The battles along the Belgo-
Francan frontier between the
Allies and the Germans still con.
tlnues with varying degrees of
success but no decisive battles
have been fought. Snowstorms
have added to the sufferings and
the losses have been enormous.
1t is estimated that the Germans
around Dixmude and Ypres have
lost in four days fighting 100. 600
men. Their bravery is astonish-
ing, and they appear determined
to reach the French coast at
Calais from where it is expected
that they will make a combined
submarine and Zepplein attack
on London. The Russians seem
to be slowly pushing their way

They have advanced many miles

of the most desperate character. |
