Franklin Objects Seriously,

She isn't very large, that's true, but
being a county seat, and Boosting Of
a college, several factories, flour mills,
railways, interurbans and her lately
acquired Masonic home, Franklin feels
that she is not town to be passed
lightly by, in fact, she knows her i'm
pOrtance, and thought that everyone In
the state realized it until she was
taken down bit lately. During the
big conference of the Methodist
churches held recently in the town a
meeting of the indianapolis presbytery
was in session at the same time at
HopeWell, a country church in Il pros.
porous farming community few
miles out. One of the Presbyterian
delegates, on leaving the train joined
in the throng headed for the Method
list church. When it came to regis
tering, some of his inquiries caused
someone to suggest that probably he
was in the wrong place, and he asked
innocently: isn't this Hopewell?"
"NO, this is Franklin" was the proud
reply.-lndianapolis News.

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
b means of a hog oilcr, 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 get the oil we'll into the skin. When
crude oil is used, the appearance Of
skin and hair is greatly improved.

FATTEhING OF BEEF CATTLE
Value Of SiIage Strongly Emphasized
by Indiana Standardization fer
Substantial Gains.

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

per steer. The cOttonseed meal gave
much better results than oil meal ana
tended to produce tirmer flesh with
silage.
Where there is not an abundance Of
grazing when cattle are fed the SilO
will be almost indispensable to ecou-
Omy in feeding. The amount saved in
feeding silage will soon pay for the
silo. Ii helps utilize the coarse feeds,

Boston's Fine Example.

Last Christmas in Boston the mayor

their window shades up on Christmas

cheerful glow as it gave to old Bea-

Down in the Public gardens the city
was enjoying its municipal Christmas
tree, a stately fir, bedecked with myri-
al cOlOred electric bulbs, while the
band played old familiar carols that
veered into popular street songs be-
fore the crowd scattered. The scene
was significant of Christmas now be-
ing a cosmopolitan festival holding
the heart of Puritan New England.

Railway Troubles First.
| then recommended:

1 then recommended:
First immediate provision for the
enlargement and administrative reOr-
ganiZation of the Interstate commerce
commission along the lines embodied
In the bill recently passed by the house
OF representatives and now awaiting
action by the senate; in order that the
commission may be enabled to deal
with the many great and various duties
now devolVing upon it with a prompt
ness and thOrOughneSS which are, with
Its present constitution and means of
action, practically impossible.
Second, the establishment of an
eight-hour day as the legal basis alike
of work and of wages in the emplov-
ment of all railway employees who are
actually engaged in the work of oppr-
atinS trains in interstate transporta-
ton.
Third, the authorization Of the an
polntment by the president of small
body of men to observe the actual rp-
suits in experience Of the adoption of
the elght-h0ur day in railway trans
portation alike for the men and for
the railroads.
Fourth, explicit approval by the con-
greSs OF the consideration by the in
terstate commerce commission of an
increase Of freight rates to meet such
additional expenditures by the rail
roads as may have been rendered nee
eSSary by the adoption of the eight
hour day and which have not been off
set by administrative establishments
ana economies should the facts dis
closed Justify the increase.
Fifth, an amendment of the existing
FEDERAL statute which provides for the
mediation, Cancellation, and arbitration
or such controversies as the present
by adding to it a provision that in case
the methods of accommodation now
provided for should fail, full public
investigation of the merits of every
such dispute shall be instituted and
completed before a strike or lockout
may lawfully be attempted.
And, sixth, the Judgment in the
hands of the executive of the power
in case of military necessity, to take
control of such portions and such roll
ing stock of the railroads of the conn
try as may be required for military
use and to operate them for military
purposes, with authority to draft into
the military service Of the United
States such train crews and admins
trative officials as the circumstances
require for their safe and efficient use
Renews His Recommendations
The second and third of these rec
concentrations the congress Immediate
ly acted on: it established the eight
hour day as the legal basis of work
and wages in train service and il au-
thorized the appointment of COM
mission to observe and report upon the
practical results, deeming these the
measures most Immediately needed:
but it postponed action upon the other
suggestions until an opportunity should
be offered for more deliberate con-
sideraton of them. The fourth rec
concentration | do not deem it neces-
sary to renew. The power of the in
ferstate commerce commission to grant
an increase of rates on the ground re-
ferred to is indisputably clear and q
recommendation by the congress with
regard to such matter might seem to
draw in question the scope of the COM
missions authority or its inclination to
