and state could be honeycombed with
its spies.
So long as our political parties
upon occasion wink at the purchase
and manipulation of votes, there will
be many men, both foreign and ma
tive-born, who will welcome bribery.
Where then is our protection?
Shall we find it in air craft and sub,
marines? Since we live in barbaric
times, such forms Of preparedness as
barbarians can understand are I'M
doubtedIy necessary, but if we make
this kind Of preparation only we shall
fail.
There are two other preparations
which must be made if America is to
establish the kind of defense which
will defend.
One will place the ballot in the
hands of women and thus make them
responsible citizens. They, and they
alone, can train in the souls of the
young of our country the kind Of
patriotism and honor that will guard
our nation in time of peril.
The other line of safety lies in a
bold, Wep-defned, courageous cam
,paign for world peace, led by our own
natiOni while yet there is time.

PREPAREDNESS, SUFFRAGE ANE
WORLD PEACE
BY Carrie Chapman Gait
Let us imagine our own country
at war. It is not difficult to do, with
all the horrors of the cataclysm
across the ocean daily spread before
our view.
Against this time let us build a
fleet of airships and a school of sub
marines so numerous and wonderful
as to stay the Imagination Of the
most militant; let US build great
dreadnoughts to sail the ocean; let
us establish CONSUMPTION and train
our men to march, to maneuver and
to kill; let us tax our people to the
utmost limit for all the cost Of this
preparation; and yet, alas! we are
not defended!
For the enemy that is certain to /
betray us will not come across the
sea in ships, or attack our merchant
marine with torpedoes, nor yet will it
drop bombs upon us from above. It
will come from our innermost ranks.
We shall find it among those who
have not comprehended the spirit Of
AmericaniSm and who are not loyal
to the highest and best our govern
ment represents.
y There is no nation in Europe which
does not possess representatives
enough in this country to make it
certain that in case of war every city

GRAIN FOR LIVE STOCK.
Grinding Corn and Oats For Hogs and
Horses of Doubtful Value.

Horses OF Doubtful value.
It is somew hat doubtful whether the
grinding OF corn for some classes of
i've stock Is worth the labor and ex-
pense involved Tests conducted for
ten years at the Wisconsin experiment
station showed an average increase In
gains Of about g per cent from grinding
corn for hogs. The results for indivtd-
ual years ranged from II per cent loss
TO IS per cent gain. The Iowa station
has also done considerable work IN
testing various methods of preparing
corn for hogs and found that, while
grinding showed slight increase In
the feeding value of corn for older hogs,
such gains did not begin TO pay the
cost of Smelling and grinding. Soaked
shelled corn showed to much better ad-
vantage than the cornmeal and also
proved somewhat better than the dry
ear corn.
II was a question, however. whether
the differences In feeding value paid
for the labor OF Smelling and soaking.
1t is advisable 10 grind small, hard
grains, such as kaffir. milo. barley, rye
or sorghum seed, as otherwise large
proportion OF the feed may not be di-
gested.
Ground oats for horses have not
shown any great advantage over whole
oats, except In the case of horses that
are at very hard work or have defective
teeth. Grinding oats for hogs. how
ever, will increase their feeding value
from 20 per cent 10 80 per cent, since
the hog IS not able 10 digest the whole
grain TO advantage.
AS much as Is per cent OF whole corn
may remain undigested when fed TO
cattle. 1t liz therefore desirable to
grind the corn TO prevent this waste.
Sheep will handle whole grain 10 much
better dvantage.--Charles /. Bray.
