Secret of His Power.
In Houston, Texas, in the year 1858,
Edward NJ. House was born. He was
educated at the Hopkins grammar
school, New Haven, Conn.,, and at
Cornell university. He has been active
all his adult life in Democratic politics,
but never has been a candidate for Of

Add to these admittedly meager de-
tails one fact and unquestiOnably you
will have the secret of this mans pow
er to attract other men TO him for the
purpose of consultation on really high
public matters. From the day that he
was old enough to undertake serious
study, Edward NJ. House has been deep
In the books of politics, economics and
legislation. He has marshaled in his
mind all the greater events which have
happened in these three words. More
over, he has the men, the things and
the motives connected with each case

He is quick to trace a cause to an eff

has been a student of human nature

great problems of human life. This
means that he has in him, or at any

up a sound diplomat

TREATMENT FOR AILING PIGS
row Ration High in Protein
Can Be Remeded.

When pigs are fed on a very mar
row ration with a high content of pro-
tein and a limited amount of energy
and fat-fOrming material, they are
subject to a breaking out of the body
which causes considerable irritation.
This has been noticed when pigs are
turned on a pasture very rich in pro-
tein, especially when the pigs had
previously been on a feed that was
lacking in this content. These pigs
will unquestionably improve If you
will feed a mixture of II parts Of
cornmeal, two parts of shorts and
one part of oil meal along with the
separated milk. Spray these pigs
again with light crude oil and apply
over the worst spots of the body a
mixture of three parts of unsalted
lard and one part of flowers Of sui

Then you can cut V-shaped notches
with a knife. 1 commence at 20 and
go on up to 129 (see illustration)
which would be high enough for most
herds or fiocks. If any one should
want to go higher it would be an easy
matter to make a different kind of
notch to do this.

House on public matters. How deep
an impression he has made on Texas
legislative history never may be known
definitely, but there is enough salient
to make Texans know that they are
right in attributing to him many of
their public welfare acts.
Though not accounted wealthy in
these days of huge fortunes, Colonel
House is quite well fixed financially
and is not engaged in business of any
kind.
Has Studied Hard.
l have talked to Colonel House and
have learned things which make me
feel that 1 shall not go wrong when 1
try to put an Interpretation upon some
of his methods of doing things. He is
free enough to say that he has studied
hard at economic, political and leg's-
Iative subjects. He probably even
would be willing to admit that he
thinks the results of these studies con-
tinued and their results retained, have
enabled him to be of some service
when men were seeking information
concerning events In the past which
have relation to events in the present
or events expected in the future.
Therefore, there is here a man who
has held what he has studied. who
has collated and correlated the hap
penings Of history, who has drawn
lessons from them, who takes an in
terest as deep In the living present as
he does in the dead past, and who men
believe is able to make his knowledge
for old as it is let US say
it, history repeats itself.
Woodrow Wilson did not meet his
friend Colonel House until the days
when he was holding Office as COVER
nor of New Jersey. 1t is said by
friends II Mr.. Wilson that almost in
stantly he came to understand why
the Texan had been of service along
lines to some Of the gov
srnors of the state In which he has
lived most of his life. For six or seven
years Mr.. House has been the conf
liant and the counsellor of the presl-
lent Of the United States. and seem

FEEDING ROUGHAGE TO EWES
Animals Consume Large Quantities OF
Bulky Feed and Need Compare
lively Little Grain.

Breeding ewes consume compare
lively large quantities of roughage and
need but little grain. OF this rough
age corn slower and oat straw may
well form an important and economi-
cal part. but they should be supple
mented by other feeds containing more
protein. Sheep will eat about % to
80 per cent of the total weight of the
slower, leaving the stalks. Wheat
straw is not so valuable for sheep
feeding as oat straw, while rye straw
has practically no value in sheep ra-
tons.

HOLES IN OTHER STOCKING
Aristocratic Customer Undone by I'M
patient Clerk, Who Pulled Off
the Wrong Shoe.

The aristocratic and plutocratic
looking young woman walked into the
downtown shoe store, says the Indian

Demanded was the tone of voice.
Majestically she lowered herself into
The regulation seat proffered her by
The manager of the department and he
assigned Classy Charles, the nifiest
matinee idol in the shop, to the Gus
toner.
The woman began by asking to see
everything that was shown in the win
dow outside. Classy @. started out to
fill the order. He did. But none of the
shoes were good enough for madam's
dainty foot. AS the day wore on and
the customer stayed. @. @. began to
perspire. The other clerks looked on
and grinned. Not that they disliked
Charles, but, well, there was a feeling
among the fellows about him. All this
did not change the expression Oh Char
ley's face. It remained, that same
winning smile. But finally after about
half the stock had been laid out for in
spection. the manager whispered to
Charles, Are you that rotten" Which
made Charles as mad as could be. He
forgot himself. He violated the first
rule Of etiquette Of the shoe clerk.
(No, 1t is the second; the first is to
hand out the usual line about the
quality, etc. He yanked off her left
shoe. Lo. and behold. the stocking on
the left foot was full Of holes If
the right one was perfect. what a flaw

ingly time enough has gone by and
things enough have been proved or
disproved TO give certainty to the
word that Woodrow Wilson has found
Edward NJ. House an advisory asset.
There hardly can be much of real
mystery about a man who twice since
this great war began has been sent
abroad as a special commissioner for
the president of the United States. Col
onel House has been twice in Berlin,
five times In Paris, and frequently in
other of the great European capitals.
Some day it may be that Woodrow
Wilson will write what may be called
an photographed review of his nd
ministration. If he does it is entirely
likely that the part taken by Colones
House in the shaping of some of the
policies of the president may be given
the page place which many men be-
lieve that it deserves.
No Mystery There.
While living in New York Colonel
House resides in an apartment not
very far uptown. 1t is a homelike
place where good books are found and
where good friends may come. 1t is
genial place and no curtain of mystery
hangs over the door of any one of its
rooms. Men go there and are well
come. They go and they talk. Man
learns as much from man as he learns
from books and more perhaps If we
believe the ancient saying about the
proper study of mankind.
I asked Colonel House what his rec
reations are. He said Friends, read
ing and walking" His library shelves
show the kind of books that he has
read, still is reading and will continue
to read, for those In the book cases
are made the companions day by day
of the others as they come from the
hands of writer's worth while.
No man probably can read politics,
legislation, economics and history con-
stantly without getting some Of DIR.
Dry-as-Dust's characteristics. So 1t Is
that Colonel House does not read the
four formidables constantly. He turns
to fiction and here one finds something
of possibly more than passing human
interest.
George Frisbie Hoar of Massachus-
etts was one of the scholars in politics.
It was said of him that he had read
everything from Aristophanes' Frogs"

Possibly the one law passed by

which affects the creates number of
people, was the good roads law, Com
mittees of the Senate and House
worked on it for weeks before it was

after numerous amendments by that
body was passed and reported to the

all objections. He argued quietly, but
effectiely and when the bill finally
came up for amendment in the House
he was right there with the goods.
He had fifty or more amendments to
offer. which taken as a whole re
moved about al of the Objectionable
features of the bila as pointed out to
him by 93 other members and the
amendments were adopted az offered

but Mr.. Parks stood like a stone wall
and battled for the bill. For Gods
sake, gentlemen, if you are going to
kill the bin, kill it humanely. Don't
kiel it with an amendment like that"
Over and owe again he made this
plea in the House and this plea was
effective. a majority standing by him
