CRUDE OIL DESTROYS vERMIN
Oilers Are Cheapest and Most Efficient
Means Of Kidding Hogs Of
Harmful Lice.

Hog oilers are the cheapest and
most efficient means of Kidding the
hog of lice, says the veterinary de-
partment of the Nebraska College of
Agriculture.
One application of crude oil kills
both lice and nits. The most con-
venient method of applying the oil is
by means of a hog oiler, of which there
are several good types. They are al
ways ready and require little -atten-
ton. The best oiler allows the pig
to rub the oil on any part of the body.
The oiler can also be applied with
a sprinkler, spray pump, broom, OF
brush. If there is any indication of
skin disease, the parts may be
scrubbed with a broom or brush so as
to gst the oil well into the skin. When
crude oil is used, the appearance of
skin and hair is greatly improved.

Time to End Divisions.

We believe that the Democrats have
as yet no clear title to claim that the
West has permanently attached itself
to their party. They have carried the
West in two consecutive national cleo
lions, 1t is true, but they have car
ried 1t the second time as well as the
first because there was divided Re-
publican party.
Is this division to exist Indefinitely
Or Is 1t now to become healed on the

YACHTING BOOMING IN CUBA
Craft and Place Order" for Sew
eral Larger Yachts.

With the growing prosperity OF
Cuba, yachting has developed into
one Of the leading sports of wealthy
Cubans, and the Havana Yacht club
races are now feature of the sea
son. Many Of the amateur yachtsmen
feel that they have outgrown the SON
der type Of racing craft, and orders
have been placed in this country for
several of the larger racing yachts.
When these are launched 1t is hoped
that some of the American yacht own
ers may be induced to visit Cuba and
participate in a series of international
races. If the outcome of these races
warrants, several of the wealthy Gu
ban enthusiasts may. combine and
challenge for the Americas cup with
in the next few years.

Democratic Tariff Faith.

When the Democrats came into pow.
err sugar was selling for five cents a
pound, and yet it was paying $5,OOO,OOO
year in revenue to help support the
government. Since the Democrats re-
duced the tariff we are losing about
S36. OOA, 900 year in revenue and we
can buy sugar for almost eight cents
pound. Thus does the doctrine q
free trade justify itself. Even Democ-
racy has temporarily abandoned free
sugar." but the same old tariff prin-
ciple is still the Alpha and Omegs of
Democratic tariff faith. Tariffs that
are too low are as futile as no tnriffs
at all. They rob the federal treasury,
yet fail to compensate the ultir1ate

FATTENING OF BEEF CATTLE
Value Of sIaee Strongly Emphasized
by Indiana Standardization for
Substantial Gains.

The value of the silo in fattening
cattle was strongly emphasized by the
Indiana station. In this experiment
substantial gains were made on the
following ration:
2.5 pounds cottonseed meal.
"A pounds clover hay.
14.4 pounds shelled corn.
27.7 pounds corn silage.
When siIage was fed the cost of
gain was one-half cent a pound less
than with dry feed and the increase
in profits amounted to from So to So

much better results than oil meal and
tended to produce firmer flesh with
silage.
Where there Is not an abundance of
grazing when cattle are fed the silo
will be almost Indispensable to econ

feeding silage will soon pay for the
silo. 1t helps utilize the coarse feeds,

Success Of ichiya kumagee, Japanese
Tennis Champion, Uses One
Of Rarest Strokes.

the recent victories of the japanese
champion showed him to be a formid-
able contender for the national title,
say that Kumagee's success is due
largely to his use of the pulled drive"
one Of the rarest strokes in the game.
The stroke, they say, corresponds
to the pull in golf. Its effect is to
make the ball spin upon an axis tilt
ed away from the player at an angle

Of about IS degrees. The ball is heav-
lily cut sideways, upward and outward,
and the effect is wide curve In flight
and very puzz.lng bound or break

1t Is said that this stroke was sue
cessfully used by the late Anthony

champion, but it is virtually unknown
