usurped legislative powers which the
people no longer want it to exercise,
the question comes, what are we to
do about it?1
The answer is very simple-let con

the power to declare laws unconstitu-

which any school boy can understand
The constitution reads 'In all cases

The Albert Lake sea serpent was first
pheard of fifteen or twenty years ago
when Indian John said that he saw
the tracks of a serpent on the shore
Of the lake. The cowboys made fun
of him, but when he persisted they
followed him and found the track.
The reptile makes track like a
snake and is about eight inches
across.

Ship Hay BY
Parcel Post

Thousands of head of cattle in
northern California and southern Ore
gon, according to Jesse s. Roberts
superintendent of the Railway Mail
Service, are being saved from starya-
tion through the parcel post.
+ A late and heavy snow storm In
these regions has deprived the cattle
of the usual grazing The farmers
saw their herds perishing, as nc pro
vision had been made to feed them
with hay and grain.
Never before had such a heavy
snow fallen at this time of the year
and the barns we're empty.
Then a thrifty farmers wife sus-
gested that the parcel post be used
to bring in hay and grain.
The rules of the potsoffice depdIt
ment provide that no parcel post over
so pounds can be sent by mail and 10
more than 200 pounds each day can
be sent to one person. The ruling
does not limit, however, the number
of persons in one family receiving
these packages. Orders were given
merchants to send 50-pound packages
OF hay.
Seven members Of one household
each received the limit in one day,
making a total of l,40O pounds of
hay and grain delivered,

Changes in 1918
Football Rules

New regulations to curb the carry
ing of instructions from the side lines
and the elimination of the field goal
from multiple kick formation are
the outstanding features of the new
rules adopted at New York by the
football rules committee of the 1917
season.
A substitute player entering the
game must not speak to any other
player on the field until after the ball
has been put into play in case any
change in the positions of the players
is necessary, the incoming substitute
must give information through the
referee. In case the substitute takes
the place Of the player giving signals,
he may give the signals for the next
play, but cannot speak to any player
until after the ball is put into play.
The penalty for a violation of this
rule is the loss of Is yards.
In order that the present rule may
not work hardship, it is discretion
airy with the referee whether or not
penalty shall be imposed when the
incoming substitute fails to report.
1t was further ruled that a goal
from the field can only be scored by
a place kick or drop kick, and the
fact was emphasized that a place kick
was made with the ball resting upon
the ground, which would appear to
bar the use of multiple kick forma-
tion as now in vogue, as the ball is
held suspended a few inches above
the ground when kicked. The use of
artificial tees for a Kickoff at the
beginning of periods also was barred.
Other changes include the giving
of the ball to the offended side where
there is illegal interference with the
player receiving forward pass at
the point where the foul is commit
ted. In case the foul is committed
behind the goal line, the ball goes to
the offended team on the one-yard
line A penalty of five yards will be
imposed in the future for running
into the kicker, and Is yards and dis
qualification for roughing; the penal
ties to be imposed from the point
where the ball was put into play.
The referee is also empowered to
permit the substitution of a new ball
in play on wet field at the end of
the second period, az his discretion.

EXCELLENT PASTURE
FOR DAIRY CATTLE
Some of lowa's Best Pastures Consist
Of Mixture Of Kentucky Bluegrass,
Timothy and Sweet clover-Veter-
mary Experts to 'combat Hog
Cholera in Middle West.
TBy e. G. Dougherty.l

washington, July 25.-The success OF
Iowa farmers in providing sweet clover
pasture for stock is the subject OF
hu,,at,n for general distribution issued
TODAY by the department of agriculture.
The department asserts that with the
axcention of alfalfa on fertile soil, no
other leeuminous crop will furnish as
much nutritious pasturage from early
spring until late fall as sweet clover.
"some Of the best pastures in Iowa.
tbe bulletin continues, consist OF
,nixtnre of Kentucky bluegrass. tim
othy and sweet clover. On one iai
farm stock is pastured from the nrst
part OF April to the middle OF 1uhe
on meadows containing this mixture.
From June Is until the first part oi
Sentember the stock is kept on one
half TO two thirds the total pasturage
acreage The remainder of the pasture
land is permitted to mature SEED
crop. Usually from two to TOUR oush-
els per acre of recleaned SEED is o.
tanned from this portion of the pasture.
After the seed is harvested the stock
is again turned on this acreage. where
they feed on the garsses and nrs' year
sweet clover plants until cold weather.
Experiments by many farmers IN
the middle west show that sweet clover
is an excellent pasture for dairy cattle.
When cows are turned on sweet clover
from grass pastures, the flow OF milk
is increased and it's quality improved.
II pastures are handled properly they
will carry at least one milch COW 10
the acre during the summer months
Fight Hog Cholera.
The department of agriculture an
nounced today that seventy-fve veter-
mary specialists have been detailed to
cooperate with the state authorities
+, Iowa. South Dakota. Nebraska and
several other states in the suppression
and control Of hog cholera The ADVICE
and service of these inspectors are
available to farmers, stock ralsers and
others in the various sections OF the
states and the work is largely pre-
ventitive, rather than for the purpose
of stamping out any epidemics or large
quantities of causes. The department
did not announce If there were any
cases of the plague in Iowa, South
Dakota or Nebraska.
lcwans Are Commissioned.
Almost daily some Iowan is given
an citizenship in the army, navy or
marine corps fighting forces of the ma
ton. The latest Iowans to be desig-
mated as parts of the American mil
itary or fighting forces were Hayes E.
Martin, of Dayton. and Frank w. Hart
man, of Elliott, whose nominations as
assistant surgeons in the naval medical
reserve corps are soon to be sent to
the senate for confirmation. Secretary
Daniels announced that he had recon-
mended to President Wilson 270 physi-
clans to be commissioned as assistant
surgeons in the navy. The increase
in ships already launched and those to
be launched soon make necessary the
increase in the medical staff.
