The Danger Element In
Booze

TN Massachusetts some months ago an accident
y occurred in one OF the industrial concerns and
the blame was Justly laid upon a drunken employe.
Suit for damages was brought by the wife OF the
workman injured, and the case was carried through
the lower courts to the Supreme Court where lower
decisions were sustained giving the plaintiff judg-
ment for $4,000 against the owners Of the plant
where the accident occurred And the following
significant language was used in the Supreme
Court decision:
A drunken employee is human parallel to the
physical equipment which may be classed as de-
fective material and cause INJURY tosworkmen II
one workman is injured througha drunken work
man, the employees responsibility does not lessen
because of the intoxication. The employer. whose
defective equipment is the cause,o Of the injury is
responsible The employer whose drunken work
man causes injury to fellow workmen is also re-
sponsible
Thus precedent is established which will be Of
assistance in furthering the cause Of prohibition.
Every employer Of workmen, and the workmen
themselves will learn that there is no wisdom in
permitting the sale OF booze that can make man
incapable of being trustworthy Nor will the deci-
sion affect only industrial concerns. The time is
not far distant when any employer who keeps in
his service an employee who Is addicted to drink;
or any liquor-using professional man who is de-
pended upon for service, must expect to be dis
countenanced and TO lose out in the business world
The public wants reliability above everything

End of Beet Sugar

TIME department OF agriculture announces that
in 1914 there was produced in this country
722054 tons of refined beet sugar and it is mat
ter Of common knowledge that, owing to war CON
ditions and the fact that sugar does not 90 on to
the free list until next spring the acreage for
1915 will probably be larger than ever before.
2, And there, says the San Francisco Chronicle it
will stop. There is no beet sugar factory in this
State which expects to run next year, and all which
have made any statement on the subject say that
they will not run because they cannot.
1t is presumably the same in all other States,
and it is certainly the case with the cane sugar
growers OF Louisiana, whose sugar costs more
than beet sugar
But that will not help the consumer in the least
While with all forms OF sugar as they now are the
beet sugar factories cannot without protection,
with the million tons of domestic sugar withdrawn
the rehners will be able to get the same old prices
and pocket the profits For years the refners'
trust, which has been characterized by the depart
ment Of justice as having practised "a long-con-
tinued system Of defrauding the government Of
unparalleled deprayity," has been striving to put
the beet sugar producers out of business
At last, by the aid OF the President and congress
it has done the trick and not only has il not pro-
fitted the consumer by one cent, but when the war
exgency came, these same refners would sell only
at the most extortionate prices, and are endeayor-
ing to do so still N
That which this most villainous trust has done
before it will certainly continue to do whenever 1t
is possible. 5.-.H M

tell how many men the Empire has in the field or
how far this total falls short of the requirement

Outlook For Peace

I. N IL signs indicate, writes Henry Clews, in his
q A weekly financial summary, that we have en-
tered period Of permanent recovery from the war.
The firsteffects of that cataclysm were panic fol-
lowed by paralysis, then period of yacillation
between fear and confidence Through all of these
phases, the process of financial and commercial
REIMBURSEMENT has been progressing with remark
able steadiness, until fear has now almost totally
disappeared and buoyancy is taking its place
Trade and finance, at least SO far as concerns the
United States, have been completely adjusted to-
war conditions; and the tendency now is to dis
count in advance the coming Of peace Confidence
has been further strengthened BY progress of the
war itself While it would be unwise to indulge
in premature optimism the hope Of an early end
is based upon the belief that preparedness on one
side and exhaustion ON the other can only bring
one result The general opinion is that peace will
come during the autumn Be that as it may, there
is auniversaf presentiment in favor of early peace
that must have some foundation greater than the
mere wish War is the very essence Of uncertain
ty, however, and setbacks must be expected, al
though the outlook is clearer than at any time since
the struggle began. y

Serious Bl.i,lder Threatens

N UHIO appeared before a legislative commit
~ tee yesterday and urged the passage Of a
resolution requesting congress to send congress
sonal committee TO Hawaii to investigate the re-
lationship between the small farmers" and the
plantations. One most substantial reason why
such resolution should not pass IS that it CON
tains the broad implication that there is something
wrong worth investigating
1nasmuch as Kuhio, short time ago. Travelled
ali over the Territory with the then Secretary Of
the Interior, Mr. Fisher, and heard all that home
steaders and small farmers and plantation mani
ayers had to say. the Delegate should know exact
y how little foundation exists for the few COM
plants in circulation
II may be that the Delegate did not pay stf-
6cient attention to all that was said and done
during Mr.. Fishers visit. 1t may be that he still
believes that somewhere there exists corporate OPP
preston Of the independent cane planter. 1t is
fact that Kuhio did not seem to be very wide
awake at number Of the Fisher hearings he att
tended In that event. If he could secure from con-
gress the printing Of the Fisher report and would
take day or two to read copy OF i, he might

ent congressional inquiry
The Delegate ought to know that to ask for an
investigation along the lines he recommends is an
especially harmful proceeding for Hawaii at this
particular time. II congress could be persuaded to
send special commission here to investigate the
general condition of the sugar industry, with
view to securing 6rst-hand knowledge OF the prob
able effects Of free sugar upon the Territory as a.

edy.
It is a physicians prescription.
Swamp-Root is strengthening medi-
cine. DR.. Kilmer used it for years in his
private practice It helps the kidneys,
liver and bladder do the work nature in
tended they should do.
Swamp Root has stood the test Of years.
It is sold by all druggists on its merit and
it will help you. No other remedy can
successfully take its place.
Be sure to get Swamp-Reot and start
treatment at once.
However, if you wish first to test this

reach Of the attendant. One advan-
tage of hanging the sash from the CEN
ter is that high winds are not likely
to slam the sash, either open or shut.
The foundation of this monitor-roof
dairy barn is of concrete, the walls
having footings wide enough to make
them solid and deep enough to reach
down to solid ground These walls
extend up two feet. above grade. A
profile of the dairy floor conforms to
the most approved plan worked out by
practical dairymen.
The concrete standing floor has a
fall of one inch between the front and
hind feet of the cows This is to ia
cilitate drainage and for easy clean
ing. The hangers are two feet in
width, they are six inches deep at the
back and IL inches deep at the front or
feed-alley side. The standing floor
measures four feet ten inches from the
back OF the manger to the gutter. The
gutter is Is inches wide and drops six
inches below the standing floor The
feed alley in the center is about seven
feet in width and the alleys behind
the cows are five feet six inches wide.
The side alleys slope with a fall Of
one inch towards the gutter. This
makes a stable floor that is perma-
nent and satisfactory.
The roof may be supported in two
ways 1t may be made self-supporting
so there will be no posts in the way.
This is done by running the rafters
from the caves clear through to the
monitor plates. They are crossed and
bolted at the crossings, and the whole
roof structure is made into trussed
roof by ties reaching across the build
ing from one side plate to the other
side plate. All monitor studding
reaches down and is bolted to these
cross ties and to the rafters, thus
forming very strong truss.
The other plan supports the monitor
studding or posts long enough to reach
from the rear wall of the concrete
managers to the monitor plates. 1t is
customary to place these posts two
cows apart, and the monitor windows
are the same width as the COW stalls.
This arrangement provides one mon
itor window for each two cows
The cow stalls may be two feet ten
inches between stall partitions, or
they may be three feet two inches, &C.
cording to the size Of the cows the
stable is intended for,

SHEEP DURING WARM SEASON
Particular Attention Should Be Paid
to Water Supply-Place the Flock
Near a Running, Stream.

Particular attention should be CIV
en- the sheep in warm weather rela-
tive to their supply of water. You
know, many old fogy farmers still
contend that sheep can get all the
water they require from the dews..
This is certainly a mistaken idea, and
one that is absolutely cruel, for sheep
need water as much as any of the
other farm animals, though they do
not drink as much as some others.
suppose it is a fact that sheep can
subsist on the dews as their means
of water, but they never do so well
as those that have all they can drink,
says a writer in Farm Progress.
When an animal is forced to live on
less than the normal water supply, it
is sure to be very uncomfortable. To
do well and put on flesh, they should
have running stream of water where
they can reach it.
Many sheep raisers have tendency
to let the sheep take care of them
selves, after shearing time has passed,
and there are so many other farm
duties demanding attention. Where
there are young lambs, they should be
well cared for in order to make the
best growth possible before market
ing in the fall. They are hard to get
in shape to sell when they have been
forced to look out for themselves.
If one happens to have running
stream Of water in the sheep pasture,
he may consider himself fortunate. A
pond is nex+ best, and often one is
obliged to put up few rods of fenc-
ing to inclose a pond. spring, or part
of creek.

soWs NEED GOOD ATTENTION
Neglect at narrowing Time VIII Eat
Up All Profits Made In Year
Feed Is Important Problem.
tBy H. M. coTTRELL.)


Give the SOW all the water she
wants for the first "a hours after the
pigs are born, but no grain. Take the
chill off the water in cold weather.
For three or four days after the first
"a hours, give plenty of water; but
feed grain and milk sparingly. Then
slowly increase until, when the pigs
are three weeks old, the sow is having
all the feed she viii consume. Give
the pigs exercise and sunshine from
birth, but do not allow them to get
damp nor to be exposed to the wind.
When the SOW is given warm, rich
slop, or other milk-producing feeds
just after her pigs are born, a strong
milk flow is forced. The newborn
pigs get too much and have diarrhea,
which often kills them. They cannot
take all the milk, and the sow's udder
becomes infamed and caked. When
the pigs suckle the pain becomes Sc
intense that in desperation she jumps
up, kills and eats them.
The profits for a whole year can be
thrown away in a few hours by littlel
neglect at narrowing time. An inves-
tigation in one of the chief hog-prc-
ducing sections showed that the farm

feed alley, to carry silage from the
silo, or mixed feed from the little fe5d-
room built in between the end of the
stable and the silo. The same center
car track and carrier will bring for
age from a hayrack at the other end
of the building. In using stable in
this way dairymen often prefer to cut
certain crops in the field and haul the
fodder to the stable to feed.
This plan of feeding is not prac-
ticed to any extent in the North, but
there are conditions of climate in some
of our best dairy sections where feed
crops grow lata in the fall, and still
others are sown in the fall to mature
early in the spring, that may be fed to
advantage as soiling crops. All soil
ing crops are expensive to handle, be-
cause they are fed green. 1t has al
ways been a puzzle to dairymen how
to handle such fodder without pulling
their arms out of the sockets. A CEN
ter feed alley built on this plan, with

about as near solving the problem as
any system that has ever been tried.
Thirty-six feet in width is recog-
nized as being the most satisfactory
COW stable when machinery is used to
save hand labor. It gives room for the
different stable carriers, for milking
machines and for the necessary me-
chanical appliances to operate the dill
ferent labor savers.
In this stable the cows are headed
in for the same reason. It is cheaper
and easier to care for cattle when they
face each other. Also the many win
dows of the building admit light where

openings are fitted with sash that may
