Originally Latin Phrase.

The origin of the phrase: "All my
eye, Betty Martin" comes of Inlspro-
nunciation of the Latin 40 mihi, beate
MARITIME" which is literally, 80 blessed
Martin (help) me" and is found in
several litanies Of the middle ages.
Now it is slang for lie. There are
several such Latin phrases which have
been degraded or transmitted. Hocus

Development of the Dairyman.

A good man is usually the re-
suit Of good Infringing 10" and his
own efforts to be Just little better
citizen each succeeding day. a
good character isn't made in a day
or year. 1t is the result of many
years of doing well. What has
this to do with the development of
the dairynar1 Good d,irymen
are developed - TIVE same way.
1t should always be borne in
mind that the uwner Of the COW
must be better dairvman than
she is dairy COW, otherwise the
herd will be graded downward in
stead cf upward. The man who
has not been giving thought to the
dairy business and who has been
keeping COWS just because he hap
pens to have them on his hands
should also RENE rber that his
herd is an exceptionally poor one
if there are net a few COWS in it
that will make pretty good returns
if he gives them n chance. These
are the cows t. which he should
give special attention. He should
serve them with \ GOOD dairy sire
and keep the heifer calves from
them. He will be delighted witt
the first cross.

A good dairyman is the result o
years OF association with goo

become a good dairyman all a
once, he generally makes diSma
failure. Start in the dairy bus
ness by taking good care of tn
common COW. Improve the, here
by improving yourself ia that lin
of work. Then you will be work

will eventually become a goo

HORSE STILL WITH Us
(Kansas City Times)

a sunstruck horse lay on the pave
ment. with a crowd Of sympathetic
persons around il. one Of whom said
IL am always sorry for the over
worked horse Of the city streets. ! am
glad the motor car has almost driven
the horse out, and soon there will be
no more horses for ignorant men to
abuse"
Nearly everyone believes that the
horse is fast disappearing; but they
are in error. Census statistics show
that there are more horses in this
country now than ever before notwith-
standing that 100000 horses have been
gathered up by France and Great Brit
ain and sent to the war front.
The motor car and tho motor truck,
while greatly increasing In numbers,
have not caused corresponding de
crease in the use of horses. This IL
shown by figures gathered in Chicago,
where, in the last five years motor
vehicles increased from 1000 to 49,
900, while horsedrawn vehicles only
decreased from $4,000 to 10000. Thus
$4,000 motor cars came into use, but
they displaced only 5000 horse-drawn
vehicles. From these figures it would
seem that 1t will be long time before
horses disappear from the streets.

NEW YORK LETTER
From Our Regular Correspondent

4. II. Going West-Col. Theodore
Roosevelt is going west He will
make five speeches for Mr.. Hughes.
While the Democratic managers NAV
not be able to do their sums with
much CArtainty of accurate results.
there will be no sincere doubts in
their minds as to what are the pros
poets of their candidate when Mr..
Roosevelt gets through with him, ac-
cording to those who have been per-
mitted a glimpse at the outline of Mr..
Roosevelt's speeches. Some OF these
enthusiasts even go so far as to say
that the Democratic donkey will look
like an army mule after six months in
the European trenches. once Mr.
Roosevelt has completed his speaking
trip. That was what he looked like
to the Maine voters after Mr.. Roosc-
welt had spoken there. and there may
be some basis for the prediction Of
Mr.. Hughes supporters regarding his
appearance in the middle west after
he has gone up against the body blows
of "the Mighty Hunter"

Hughes In The West-"Gov. Hughe'e
western trip was an unqualified sue
cess" This is the statement of a
newspaper correspondent of long eX-
perience, who represents an indepen-
lent paper and who "trailed" the Re
publican candidate throughout the
west. As every newspaperman knows
the man who trails-that is, travels
over the same ground about a week
behind the candidate-has a far bet
ter opportunity of observing the rea
effect of the candidates trip than
those who travel with him. "Mr
Hughes" continues this correspond.
ent, made a splendid impression. He
made no attempt to initiate Col ROosc-
welt. He did not attempt Irrational
pyrotechnics. But he talked with an
earnestness, a clearness and con-
vincing logic which held the rapt in
terest of his auditors and made 4
tODlt lOlu III
that they were so interested in his
speeches that they forgot to applaud
and never thought of interrupting to
cheer. When | told that to the Demo-
cratic managers they laughed with
derision-until | reminded them that
Lincolns speeches were never cheer
ed and that even his Gettysburg ad-
dress was not applauded The people
were too much impressed by Lincoln
to give any outward evidence, other
than their intense silence, of the deep
impression his. words made. And
from what many Republicans and
Democrats and all the newspapermen
met on Mr.. Hughes trail told me,
became convinced that he made much
the same kind of speeches and the
same sort of impression as did Mr.
Lincoln"

for it, 1t is predicted, therefore, that
there is a very bad quarter of an hour
in store for Chairman Mccormick Mr..
Wilson never reads any criticisms of
himself and, doubtless, is wholly I'M
aware of the drastic condemnation to
which he has been subjected by Mr.,
Hughes, Col. Roosevelt and other Re-
publican speakers. Close friends de-
scribe him as convinced beyond argu-
ment of his own popularity and firmly
persuaded that nothing will prevent
the American people from entrustins
their Government to him for another
four years. But the Maine results
were disturbing and, according to the
correspondents with him, he purposes
to make someone suffer for their care

Tha. Shipping BilI-rhe New lorl.
sun charaterizrs the passage of the
McAdoU-Wilscn slipping Fill as -
concession to pig headed obsessioD. "
In the estimation of many competent
observers, however, the sun is uh-
warranted in this description. 1t is
true that the Shipping bill will serve
no good purpose. II is true that it
apprOpriatcs $50,OOO.O0O of the peo-
pies money without promising any
thing but loss and injury in return,
but there are certain features of the
bill which should not be overlooked
First, the bill creates five jobs pay -
ing $500 a year each and one paying
$1,000 a year to be filed on the eve
of the national election, reason
quite sufficient in itself, juding by the
record Of this administration. Then,
as was SO often explained to reluc-
tant Democrats in Congress, il saves
the face of the President" OF course
il may puzzle any intelligent analyst
to understand how the passage of the
mere shadow of the original bill can
save Mr.. Wilson's face, but his SON
in-law assured members of Congress
l. would and so, perhaps it has. When
the Crown Prince first conceived the
idea of Shipping bill, there was
great need of ocean transportation and
many marooned foreign vessels were
in American ports. 1t was Crown
rince McAdoo's idea to buy these
ships, but he made the fatal mistake of
putting himself and Secretary Daniels
on the board to make the purchases
Republicans. and some intelligent
Democrats, like Senator Bankhead,
foresaw that to buy these vessels in
time of war and send them out under
the American flag would inevitably
involve in the European war. while
Democratic and Republican Senators
alike were wholly unwilling to trust
Mr.. McAdoo to purchase $4,000, 900
worth of ships. They knew of course
that poor old Daniels would be a
me too" on the board and that the
other members would dare oppose the
Presidents sOn-in-law. They sought
to amend the bill by eliminating Nc
Adoo and Daniels from the board
and inserting provision against buy
ing foreign ships. The Crown Prince
would not permit that and the bin
was defeated by IA Republican filibus.
ter with which the Democratic Sena- |
tors frankly sympathized, empatheti-
cally expressing their sympathy in |
private. So the bill went over until
this time and is now passed with the
required amendments. Now, however,
private enterprise has done much to
supply the lack of ships and every
is so crowded that no ships
can be built for the government for
three years and none are for sale Blu.
still il is not useless measure. There
are those Eve fortunate and "deserv.
ing Democrats who will get $500
a year and one $4,000 a year After
Maine, Mr.. Wilson needs more pie to
inject ginger Ia this campaign"

The Middle West-That hopeless
optimist, Vance Mccormick, chairman
Of the Democratic National Commit

gressives have returned to the Re-

Maine election, the middle west is
overwhelmingly for Wilson, while
