\ CLEAR CUT ANSWER

Assertions have been made that
Ex-Governor Henry Mcbride, who is
now seeking the republican nomina-
ton for governor, is the candidate
use his influence against the present
prohibition law. In justice to Mr..
Mcbride such insinuations should
not be accepted as true without suf-
ficient proof. When his attention
was called to these assertions he re-
sponded with the following state
ment of his position:
Il had supposed that my position
upon this question was well under
stood. In the announcement of my
candidacy l said The prohibition
bill, known as initiative measure No.
3, has become the law of the state.
1t is the duty OF every good citizen
TO uphold it. Those who were op-
posed TO its enactment should be as
strongly in favor of its enforcement
as those who advocated its passage
L am in favor Of its strict enforce
ment, and whatever influence or
power ! may have in the matter will
be eNerted to that end. | am op-
posed to any changes being made in
the measure by the legislature, I'M
less it be such changes as may tend
to strengthen the means OF enforcing
it. Should other changes be deemed
advisable, such changes should be
made by the people themselves by
direct vote and not by an act of the
legislature.
I am not the candidate OF the
vets nor am | the candidate OF the
drys. | invite the assistance and
welcome the support of all who are
in accord with my position as out
lined above, regardless of their past
belief upon this question.
HENRY MCBRIDE"
This statement is sufficiently clear
cut and unequiYocal for any one to
understand and completely refutes
the charges as TO McBrides attitude
toward the prohibition law. one of
the worst features of American pol
itics is the license practiced in mis-
representing the positions of candi-
dates and in circulating rumors de
rogotary TO their characters. ana the
readiness with which the people ac-
cept these Misrepresentation and
rumors as facts. without any attempt

John NJ. Mclean will doubtless
receive the democratic nomination
for sheriff without opposition and
is sure to prove a very strong candi-
date. He served as sheriff during
territorial days and is still remem-
bered as one of the most efficient
and popular officials in the history
of the county. He is a fine type

If these interests are successful in
their search and really build up a

tangled In the wool that In its remov-

Careiessness in feeding causes

above. also results In a saving of feed.
Usually that which sifts out and is lost

therefore necessary for the owner to
provide feed sufficient to keep his
flock well fed throughout the year.
If the animal is In poor health, the
effect on the growth of the wool is
similar to insufficient feed. Sheep
often shed or slip their wool as re-
suit of feverish condition. Any Sc
we're illness extending over sufficient
time to reduce the animal in flesh will
almost invariably cause a weak place
In the wool. In the production of
good strong wool the health of the ami
NAL is just as essential as proper feed
Ing.
While lack OF uniformity In breed
ing, improper feeding, and disease
each contribute to the criticism made
against the woods produced in farm
ilocks, by far the greatest amount Of
fault !, found because of the foreign
substances they contain. Some Of
these substances get into the wool
while 1t is on the sheep, while others
gain entrance through faulty methods
Of shearlng and packing. II there is
a. great deal of foreign material In
wool, IL Is impossible to remove all Of
It through the process of securing. If
II is left in, the result is a fabric with
noticeable defects If 1t is removed, 1t
Is by treating with a weak solution of
sulphuric acid and heating Ga process
known as carbonizing), which may
weaken the wool fibers. This not only
lowers the value of the wool for man
ufacturing purposes, but also adds to
It's cost to the manufacturer because
he has to spend upon 1t the extra la
Dor of carbonlzing.
Farm fiocks as a rule are small. and
In many cases they are kept TO eat
down the weeds that grow In pastures,
woodlots, and truck patches. After
the corn is harvested, they are usually
given run In the stalks. In all OF
these places burrs are likely, unless
the farmer uses care In keeping them
down. The cookie burr. so common In

The second requisite Is to cut the
wool OF smoothly close to the body.
The power machine will cut closer
than the hand shears. hut satisfactory
work may be done with the latter IL
the operator is carehu and possesses
some skill. 1t is the tendency of the
unskilled shearer. whether using the
machine or hand shears, to fail to cut
close to the sleeps body. For exaP-
pie, the shearer may start to cut closs
TO the body, but in advancing the
shears he cannot follow the shape of
the animal, and hence some of the
wool is cut from Il half TO an inch
away from the skin. lie can, and usu-
ally does, back up and cut close where
he failed In his first attempt. This
makes what is known as second cuts.
Because they are so sho { they are OF
low value for manufacturing pur-
poses. IL is also obvious that the
evil Of making second cuts makes the
fibers In the main body of the fleece
shorter and uneven In length, and
therefore less desirable.
The third requisite in good shearlng
is to get the fleece of the sheep with
out getting it torn apart. There is a
knack in holding sheep so 1t will not
kick and struggle violently; II the
shearer is fortunate enough TO possess
this knack, he is In fair way

said that our most sklllful shearers set

To sell at good price, an offering
Of wool should be uniformly good,
which means that IL should be even In
structure, length and strength of fiber,
and that II should be as nearly free as
possible from foreign matter, such ns
dirt, chaff, or litter, burrs and tar or
paint marks.
II the wool is TO be fairly uniform
in structure and length, the indlyid-
uals In the flock must be similar in
breeding. BY using purebred rams Of
the same breed for a series of years,
any flock can be graded up so that
the type of wool will be sufficiently uni
form in the particulars mentioned to
satisfy the demands of the market
provided proper attention is paid to
the fleeces of the rams purchased and
Of the ewes reserved for breeding. The
ewes should be alike in fleece charac-
teristics. In addition to other very
necessary requirements aside from
wool, they should carry fleeces even

English Down mutton breeds, such as
Shropshire, oxford and Hampshire.
Any of these, under favorable condi-
tlons, produces wool which will meet
with ready demand. So far as the wool
product Is concerned, the use of rams
of different breeds is not only unneces-
sary but undesirable, as 1t lessons its
uniformity.
Unless the animal is properly fed
the wool will not be strong and even
In size. If the food supply Is reduced
TO point below the normal demands
OF the animals body, the wool fiber is
reduced In diameter and weak place
Is the result. This greatly reduces the
commercial value of the combing
woods such as prevail in most sections
where farm flocks are kept. In the
process of combing, the fiber breaks
at the weak place aud the wool has to
be put to some use of less value. 1t is
