my sincere conviction is that Kan

His policies have met with most favor

knowing what he has done to promote
the welfare of the great mass of
American citizens they are intent on
giving him another term in the White
House. At the present time six of
the seven representatives in congress

times during the growing season. so
ct all times when the weather is ia
vorable for the animals to be out
side.
The hog growers should look to the
legumes and investigate their high
feeding value. They are highly nitro,
genous food and may be grown with
great benefit to the land at low
cost.
When q green forage crop is pas
tnred with pigs, 1t is often necessary
to plow under large portion of the
green forage, which, together with the
droppings of the pigs while they are
running on the field and being fed
supplementary grain foods, greatly
improves the land. increasing its
humus content and adding large
amounts of nitrogen to the soil beside
freeing 1t from noxious weeds. 1t Is
an economical method Of building up
rundown field.
A number of writers have advocated
feeding the pigs nothing but grass and
forage crops. but my experience, both
in the alfalfa region and here in the
East, will not bear out these claims
for forage.
We find that in order to secure
fairly good gains we must feed little
grain food at all times. Forage will
make a great saving, and the best
possible growth and thrift are secured
when wheat middlings, corn or other
grain foods are fed in connection with
such grass and forage crops as al
falfa, blue grass, clover and cowpeas.
and the pigs will reach the highest de-
velopment they are capable Of max
ing.
1t is claimed by the leading pork
producers that a well-managed sys-
tenn of forage crops will reduce the
cost of producing pork from 80 to
40 per cent.
In planning a system of forage
crops and pastures, we must be gov
erneo by the number of pigs, their
size, and quality of the land that is
| used for growing these crops.
In my own experience | have found
no better method of improving the
soil than to raise hogs, and practice
a system of growing green forage
crops and feeding them a reasonable
amount of grain food in connection
with the pasture and forage crops.
To secure the best growth and de-
yelopment the hogs must have some
grain food In connection with their
pasture and forage crops or there will
be a tendency to promote an abnor'
NAL development of their stomach
and intestines.

LIQUOR DEALERS BARRED.

sociation, an organization Of the liquor
interests with headquarters in Chica-
go, is offering to furnish newspapers
with antiprohibition material. In his
letter to the editors Mr.. Daniels. bust
ness manager of the association, says;
This is not liquor organization. We
do not accept as member anyone who
deals in alcoholic liquors. We are tax
paying business men who help make
the wheels of commerce go round" 1t
may be in order to ask, why discrimi-
nate against the liquor dealer? From
the standpoint of the above-named
antiprohibition commercial associa-
ton he is a necessary factor in making

trade, wholesale and retail, view with
approval this cstracism By manufactur-
ers and dealers?

This is important because when only
a few hens have to lay In nest there
will be fewer dirty eggs. The location
of the nests is important. They should
be where the hens will use them and
in places where the eggs may be gath

there are fewer broken and dirty eggs

With the Real Sentiments Of

"If the political prophets of Wash.

president has not chance to be re-

here in the national capital are not
at all In harmony with the expressions

When you come down to issues, the
Republicans have none that will appeal
strongly to the people The tariff can
not be used effectively, for everybody
is at work who wants to work, and
when 1t comes to talking to the work
ingman about Democratic mismanage-
ment and Democratic free trade it will
not have any great influence. The
man with job and a full dinner pail,
doesn't care much about a tariff.
Furthermore. there is a well-defined
and settled conviction among the peo-
pie, particularly among those of the
rural districts, that President Wilson
has kept the nation out OF war. and
they are grateful to him for that.
Down here, however. the politicians
are predicting with much gravity that
the Republicans are sure to win. and
that the president is fast losing what
ever hold he had on the voters" but
there Is no reason In their attitude.

PERSONAL LIBERTY.

A man may not even do with his
own body what he pleases. Suppose
he tries to kill ito commit suicide.
If he fails he will go to jail. And yet
if the United States government should
decide to go to war with any
other nation 1t assumes the right,
IL necessary, to send him to the front
to be shot down. He belongs to the
state as we'll as to himself.
II the state should decide that the
saloon is a menace, and that it dis
penses poison. then society has right
to say that the saloon must go, no mat
ter how 1t may affect anybody's per-
sonal liberty. We accept the restric-
tion which the state imposes upon US
in other relationships. Why not ac-
cept it with regard to the saloon, espe-
cially since it has been so clearly de-
monstrated that the interests of the
saloon are always opposed to the In,

A. G. Findlay of Seattle, royal
chief OF the Scottish Clans, is a travel
ing salesman whose work takes him
into every city of considerable size in
the far West. This is what he says:

note that stores report marked in

which they are doing and that the in

many accounts with people of moder-
ate means report that collections are
very much better, payments made
more promptly and, In much in
creased proportion, without 'dunning.'
"One entire set of arguments against
prohibition Is, it seems to me, knocked
out by what is seen to be happening to
the saloon. The poor mans club the
saloon has often been called by some
who sought to defend 1t and the at

Simply shut UP the coop all but
