They Want Mr.. Putney.

The Democrats of the state are
put to it to find winning candidate

Washington, July 10, Especial cor
respondence) The Democrats have
clear working majority i'll both
branches of Congress and they alone
have responsibility for the legislature
and appropriations Of the session. It
is now seven months since the ses-
sion opened, the fiscal year has come
to an end and a new one begun
and yet it was necessary to pass con-
tinuing resolutions to provide for the
conduct OF the government in right
important particulars.
In other words the Democratic Con-
gress for seven montr> So neglected
the necessary business OF the govern
mcnt that they failed to provide the
money TO continue the government
activities and were compelled to pass
stop-gap resolution to furnish 4
months supply OF funds for each OF
these branches. If they do not dis
play any more zeal in the next month
than they have in the past seven, it
will be necessary to pass another
resolution and yet Claude
Kitchin talks about final adjourn
ment OF the session in July.
The st. Louis platform challenges
comparison of the Democratic record
since 1913 with that OF any party at
any time. To meet this test Republi-
cans can turn back to any Congress
which they controlled without find
ing such record OF slipshod methods
of conducting the great affairs OF the
government as is found in the long
list OF belated appropriation bills
which this Congress had on hand at
the end Of the fiscal year. Rpubli-
cans not only made provision for the
Of the government, but
they also made provision to get the
money to meet the appropriations.
The Republican motto was to do the
days work when it was due and to
pay as you so. The Democratic motto
seems to be to put everything off
until "watchful waiting" is no longer
possible and then turn to the wrong
expedicnt.

Hagerman's Intentions.
There have been many and con-

Hagerman will do in the campaign
in the event that certain men are
nominated by the convention. In the
if 1911, he supported Nc
Donald and opposed Bursum as ag-
gressively as he could. Time and

under any circumstances, support Sc

as between Barth and Bursum, he
would support Barth; that he would
support Putney with enthusiasm.

EVENING GOWNS FOR SUMMER

In the selection of evening gowns
for summer il is not easy to lind "a
fabric which will look cool and at
tractive and at the same time be
firm enough 10 stand the wear and
tear of summer activities
Embroidered linens, tulies and chif-
fons are all right if one can afford
them, but they are very destructible.
and if they cannot be used. the choice
is limited. Some of the silk and cot

morning, as a result of the threat
ened nation wide railroad strike,
to receive no perishable freight
or live stock for shipment, at
this point. Dead freight will on
ly be received subject to delay
and when bill of ladings are so
endorsed, and explosives will not
be taken at all. This order Is
designated as Embargo Order

The Hickman courier. [volume] (Hickman, Ky.) 1859-current, 1916-08-31

The strike situation looks no
better this morning The only
hope for averting 1t is that Con
gress may apply some drastic
measure, as recommended TO this
body By Pres. Wilson, who APP
peared before this body Tuesday
ana asked it TO take some action.
AS only three days remain to APP
ply u remedy before the strike
becomes effective, it is the gener-
al cOncensus OF opinion that Con-
groSs cannot speed up enough to
check the strike plans. There Is
talk OF the government, as a last
resort, taking charge OF the rail-
roads as a military necessity,
and drafting railroad men into the
service, but this would be rather
complicated undertaking. Rail
road managers throughout the
country are making plans for the
strike by ordering embargoes,
and securing men TO take the
place OF the strikers. The strik-

is VERY IMPORTANT
Difficult Problem on Many Hog
Farms. During Summer-Run-
ming Stream Desirable.

Providing plentiful supply of pure
water is a difficult problem on many
hog farms during the summer. A run
ming stream in the yard is very desir-
able, provided there is no danger from
contamination upstream. Under no
circumstances should hogs be kept in
yards or pastures that contain large
stream that flows through other hog
yards or pastures upstream
In supplying drinking water for the
animals, care should be taken to keep
the supply clean and wholesome. There
are several ingenious devices which
are cheap and efficient. These may
be attached to a pipe line or to a stock
tank or barrel. They are fitted with
float which regulates the supply of
water in the drinking vessel. The
drinking vessel is small, and does not
admit of the hogs getting their feet in
to it. If a barrel is used it is advisable
to add small handful of lime to the
water, to prevent it becoming stagnant
when heated by the sun. Foul water
is unfit for hogs, and makes them sus-
ceptible to infectious and contagious
diseases and ailments.

milk day to grow into a $40 veal at
one month.
That it costs more to veal a calf
than it will ordinarily bring is bad
enough in itself and deserves deliber-
alton on the part of the farmer who
may not have given the matter of cost
systems much thought, says writer
in an exchange. The point is that the
calf is worth practically nothing until
labor and capital have been put into
him.
If anyone doubts this statement let
him try to sell an ordinary calf when
it is three days old and see what it
will bring. 1t takes time and effort
and money to bring a calf to the point
where it is productive. It's value at
birth is potential rather than actual.
It It Hetlld be as reasonable to credit
the COW with a yearling worth $40 as
a month-old calf worth $40.
A wellbred, registered calf is worth
a goodly sum at birth because the
purchaser can feed it expensive milk,
grain and hay and still make profit
on its ultimate value. An ordinary
calf would eat so much before it be-
came productive that only a thought
less person would pay anything for it
at the beginning of it's career.
Hence a COW may properly be cred.
