CoupIeSSnan

Congressman
Representative Kissineer OF the Illinois
general assembly, is the champion OF the
country newspaper editor. In recent
debate in the legislature, he had this to
say:
"There is no one nearer the people in
the rural communities of our state and in
our smaller cities and towns than the
the country editors. They protect the
interests of their citizens. They boost
the town they live in. They contribute
time and energy and money to the up
building of their home communities. This
nation needs cur small towns and cities.
They are the foundation of our prosperity
and our civilization.
"They are what the few great cities we
have live off of. They are the strong
fundamental struc.ure upon which we
must build our business prosperity and
stable government.
Former Ambassador Bryce, great
English economist, said that the menace
of America was her great cities, and that
the stability of the American government
and the future of American civilization
rested upon her small cities and towns and
rural communities.
If we want to protect and upbuild the
country community, let us vote in favor
of the country editors; for they are among
the staunchest, truest, hardest working
friends of all of the splendid institutions

HAY BUYERS
Want It Cured in the Shock

Growers of alfalfa in this sec
ton are receiving letters from
hay buyers and commission firms
in which special care is urged in
handling of the third cutting OF
alfalfa in order to make it mar
ketable and secure the best prices
for the output. They say that
because of the great amount of
rain that has fallen during the
harvesting Of the first two crops
that are already put up, much OF
it was rendered unstable, and
that the dealers must depend al
most entirely upon the third cut
ting for their supply of hay for
the trade.
The letter strongly advises
shocking the hay and letting it
cure in the shock, pointing out
that this preserves the leaves and
saves waste as we'll as making
better hay. They point out how
it costs but Is cents per ton to
cure the hay this way, and how
it makes the crop worth from 81
to $1.50 more per ton on the
market.
While they say the third cut
ting is all that can be marketed,
they also point out the fact that
there will not be as great de-
mand for alfalfa this year as u.s.
ual. because of the fact that all
kinds Of other forage plants have
done we'll this season, and will
take the place largely of hay. 1t
is because of this fact, they say,
that it is necessary that the
greatest care be exercised in cur
ing. as none but the best quality
of hay will find a market.

Eating When Tramping.

Experiments have shown that ami
mails which demand a mixed diet will
starve as surely and almost as quickly
when fed on a one sided diet, even
though it be large in bulk, as when de-
prived Of food altogether, and the same
thing holds true for men. Hunger Of a
moderate degree is not prejudicial to
strength and vigor, provided it be what
might be termed a general hunger. The
thing to be carefully guarded against
on a hard march is the tremendous
hunger for some particular food con-
tent, such as sweet or fat or starch,
which we so often find in the case Of a
carelessly equipped expedition. A we'll
rounded ration is worth two which are
not so. The man who has this prin-

Sir William Cavendish, known in
English history as the first Duke Of
Newcastle, was commander Of King

wrote a life of her husband, in which
she depicted him as a most illustrious
prince and in every respect the pink
Of perfection.
The work was supposed to be entire
ly authentic and truthful, for Sir Will
liam himself assisted in its preparation.
1t was published early in 1867, and
many complimentary copies were sent
out, including n to the officials of st.
Johns college, Cambridge university.
In acknowledging its receipt they
wrote:
"Your excellency's book will not only
survive u university, but hold date
even with time itself, and incontinent-
ly this age by reading your book will
lose its barbarity and rudeness, being
made tame by the elegance Of your
