Oh, YES
It's a lot of consolation
To a Teller when he's dead
To have hi-falutin speeches
over his old carcass said.
1t must be whole lot cheerin'
To a sucker in the grave
Fer to be all decorated
With the flowers someone gave.
It must give him real good comfort
AN the nice things people say,
When he's lost the sense of hearin'
Bein' just a hunk of clay.
Yes-the flowers and the speeches,
And the tears that's fur him shed,
Sure must be a lot consolin'
To a teller when he's dead.

WE NOTE with some establishment
that Carranza is particularly DESTROYS Of
avoiding armed conflict with the Uni
ted States, Any assassin who shoots
you down from behind a tree holds the
same views.
SPEAKING OF the popular and well
known alert, that's what Lordsburg Is
on. One shot by a Mex. brought out 100
men in ten minutes, or ten to the min
ute. We imagine it is not healthy for.
the Mex. to start anything in n Of
those border towns. y
YOU KNOW the fate Of the neighbor

rocks through the front parlor window.
Just at this time Ecuador and Paraguay
should be shown the door.
THE GERMANS probably agree en-,
Enthusiastically with the allies that we i
should be allowed to use our own NUM-
tons for a while.
AFTER GIVING Carranza the guns
and the ammunition and driving up the
troopers for his men to shoot, it seems
only reasonable, to complete the perfor-
nance, that we should ask him for a for
NAL disavowal.
WE HOPE no one will be mean
enough, in the hour of NeedlSs misfor-
tune, to suggest that the fire there was
caused by spontaneous combustion.

Live Stock in Wisconsin.
Prepared for the News by Stephen A. Baird. pres
ident Of the Wisconsin Live Stock
Breeders Association.


Live stock farming means the rails
ing of profitable animals animals
which pay fOnstheir keep and return
q profit. Profit producing animals
mean pure bred. well bred, earefulIy
selected sires, mated with females of
particular. type Tor particular pur-
pose. Intelligent feeding, proper care
and good: management are essentials
that must have attention. else sGec-
ton and breeding do not count. Such
pneblems are difficult ones. They
challenge mans best talglt and skill:
They make him wide awake, progres-
siye and resourceful. The many bu-
siness details connected with the in
dustry require wide knowledge and
experience and develope executive
ability that makes leaders. why
shouldn't stockmen lead?
How many successful stockmen did
you ever see who groomed the COWS
with milk stool or coaxed the steers
to the feeding rack with "black
snake" or kicked the lambs out ofthe
way. A real stockman's voice, man
ners and actions are kind and gentle.
His love of animal life keeps him with
mis- stock, often when he knows that
there is nothing lacking to make
them comfortable His animals feel
his gentleness and Kindness and re-
spond to it, He spreads it in his
home and among hss neighbors and
finds it responded to there. Go into
any community where live stock has
reached high state of development
and what do you find. Has not citi-
zenshlp kept pace? Is not the com.
munity orderly and well governed2
Are not the schools and churches eff
fieient and well supported? Who are
the community leaders? The most
modern and best governed states are
live stock states. -. 80
Tie steady decrease of farm. popu-
'lation has been viewed with much
alarm. Just Row far the. social dis
advantages Of country life effect the
problem it is hard to say. but it is
certain that in stock raising commu-
mites there ia less movement from the
farms to the towns and cities. Farm
animals have an attraction for NEST
boys and girls and the social life IN
the stock raising community seems to
be stronger knit, Only last summer

Association provided speakers for
about so summer picnics of commu-
nifty breeders iii every part. 81 the
