CAT HAS MANY MOURNERS
Citizens of New York Town Regret
Demise Of Feline Who Had Made
Himself Popular.

Often in our exchanges we find ac-
counts of remarkable dogs that have
been town characters in their day,
and whom everybody misses after
they have gone. but seldom do we re-
ceive notice of cat that has at
tained the popularity Of "Old Nose"
who died recently in Fair Haven
N. Y. The Register of that town
prints the following eulogy:
Old Nose, was only yellow cat
Old age had crept slowly upon him,
yet he was still remarkable animal.
and the remembrance of his traits
of character will ever be fresh in the
memory of the whole town. Never was
there a public supper, an entertain
ment or gathering of any kind that
Old Nose was not present. 1t mat
tered not where or when it was held,
he would find his way into 1t seeming
ly by some unknown but powerful in
stinct. He was a faithful attendant at
the Sunday services in the Methodist
Episcopal church, very seldom missing
a service. Nose had host of friends,
and he was monarch OF all he surveyed
in the store where he belonged Many
have been the friendly calls he has
made at the Register Office, and as
many have been the dainties set be-
fore him at each visit. We shall miss
him, though only a cat he was; we
shall remember him as among the
most faithful of our friends; and his
animal intelligence will always be a
bright memory in our life. He pos
sessed a nature that might well be
patterned by many a human being
He was kind innocent, intelligent and
a friend to all"

EGG FARMS FOR SOLDIERS
Coax Biddy to Do Her Or
dainej Work.

Arrangements have been mado for
free training to be given to disabled
English soldiers, and at the end of
three months tuition it is intended to
establish them on poultry farms.
Tho first two months of the course,
which will be by correspondence, can
be taken during convalescenee in hos
pital CT at their homes, and the last
month, which will be of a practical
character, win be taken at farm.
1t has been estimated that at the
end of the war there win be some 24O,-
900 soldiers who will not bc able to
take up their previous occupations, and
this scheme is designed to relieve in
some measure the economic difficulties
which will present themselves.
1T would take sufficient eggs to
weigh down six armored cruisers, each
weighing 10000 tons" said a poultry
expert recently, ito mate up the loss
of ergs which are chiefly derived from
the war area.
Before the way S4l,H00e01 worth of
eggs We're imported by England from
the continent. Now Tie supply from
abroad is cut Off
Poultrymen now hope to put dis
abled soldiers to raising hens, and de-
clare 10000 of them can make $40 a
week at replacing the foreign supply
of eggs.

Entire Neighborhoods Must Fight
at the Same Time to Win. Late
Sowing a Help, but Will Not Pre-
vent April Ha,ohing Even In Latest
Seeded Wheat. Flowing Under and
Dragging tho Only Way.
The Crop Improvement committee of
the Chicago council of grain exchanges
requests the publication of the follow
ing and as the advice seems timely. we
are pleased to comply:
We feed 30 900, 600 bushels of good
wheat to the Hessian Fly every year to
say nothing of what it costs us to feed
our Chinch Bugs and other pests, and
have only ourselves to blame. There is
only one subject in which all farmers
agree, and that is, high taxes. They
want pay for sheep killed by the neigh
boris dogs Whylnot ask pay for the
wheat killed by the neighbours Hessian
Flies2
Get together. Every neighborhood
should have Farmers club, and ap-
point Hessian Fly committee.
WHAT TO DO RIGHT NOW.
Cut the wheat high, aboye the second
joint. Remove the grain from the field
and stack it somewhere else. The fly
is now in the Iresting stage apd the
safest way and only sure plan is for
every farmer to pillow every acre deeply
and thoroughly within two weeks after
harvest, turning under the stubble
completely and then daagging early.
This will kill Mr.. Fly.
Team work is necessary. Teach the
school children to look for the fly, and
report it at every stage. Appoint
captain in every school district who
should be the best wheat grower in the
neighborhood.
This early complete blowing will not
only reduce the fly, but will be a great
benefit to next years crop. 1t does not
let the fie Id dry out after harvest, and
gets it ready to hold all the moisture
which is 30 badly needed in most Sec
tions. 1t is stated that other things
being equal, three acres plowed in July
are worth Eve acres plowed in Septem-
Der.

We should close our eyes and dwell de

burned In their bos0ms like a steady

We should put ourselves in their
places. think their thoughts, indulge
their hopes. experience their fears, suf
fer their hardships and endeavor to see
with their anxious eyes the way up

freedom and fraternity and ennob!ing

Washington Letter.

Washington, d. c., June l6.-The
Court Of Customs Appeals has, just
added another act to the comedy of err
rors in which the Democratic admins
trstion takes the star part.
The Court has rendered an opinion
on the construction of the provision in
the Underwood tariff law intended to
give i've per cent discount in customs
duties on merchandise imported in
American vessels, and has virtually
declared that the effect of the provision
gives wholesale discrimination in
favor of ships of foreign countries.
In a recent article attention was
directed to this classic blunder then
pending before the Customs Court.
The slovenly methods by which it was
enacted were referred to, showing that
the Democrats had vague idea about
aiding American shipping, adopted q
vague method of extending such aid,
and by careless guess work had thrown
the whole matter into the courts. 1t
was shown that during the debate in
Congress Republicans had given re-
peated warnings that, apart from its
policy, the phraseology of the five per
cent section was meaningless and should
be corrected to accomplish the purpose.
The decision of the Court of Customs
Appeals completely confirms these
statements, and rubs it in by saying:
1.-THE wisdom or exp.diency of the pol
icy is matter into which we may not
inquire nor have we the right to sus.
pend the operation of the statute be-
cause we may think its purpose is not
adequately accomplished.
1t will be recalled that the language
of the five per cent discount section
provided that nothing herein shall be
80 construed as to abrogate or in any
manner impair or affect the provisions
of our treaties with foreign nations"
1t appears from the opinion of the
Customs Court that there are at least
$500 treaty nation vessels in the Amer
lean foreign trade, and that there are
not more than fifty American vessels.
AS favor to our own ships the Dem
ocratic Congress, according to this
decision, gave an EQUAL BOUNTY to
$500 competing foreign vessels.
In its decision the Court referred to
statistics showing that the discount
provision reduces duties five per cent
upon considerably more than one-half
Of all our dutible imports. After all
it's labored adjustment of tariff rates
the Democrats, in this single paragraph
five per cent discount, prac.
tically destroyed the effect Of all pre-
ceding schedules, and in the same
breath conferred upon foreign ships a
privilege intended only for
our own ships.
In harmony with the decision of the
Court OF Customs Appeals there will be
. refund of customs duties estimated at |
from twelve million to fifteen million
dollars. Who gets the benefit of this !,
fund? Eventually by far the larger |
part of it will find it's way into the |
Golfers of foreign manufacturers.
Unless the United States Supreme
Court reverses the decision CT the Court |
Of Customs Appeals, these millions of
dollars must come out of treasury
already facing huge deficit resulting
from gross Encouragement by the /
present administration.

Freedoms banners greet thy ray
See how cheerfully they play
With thy morning breeze
On the rocks where pilgrims kneel'd
On the heights where squadrons
wheel'd.
When tyrant's thunder peal'd
Der the trembling seas
God of peace, whose spirit fills
All the echoes of our hills,
All the murmurs OF our rills,
Now the storm is DER
Oh, let freemen be our sons.
And let future Washinetons
Rise to lead their valiant ones
Till there's war no more.
BY the patriots hallowed rest,
BY the warriors cory breast.
Never let our graves be press'd
BY a despot's throne
BY the pilgrims tolls and cares,
BY their battles and their prayers,
By their ashes let our heirs
Bow to thee alone!
