IMMIGRATION BILL PASSED
OVER VETO.

Congress has overriden a veto
by President Wilson for the first
time and enacted into law the
immigration bill with it's long
fought iteracy. test provision.
The Senate voted late Monday
81 to 10 to pass the measure,
Notwithstanding the vote and in
spite of eleventh hour informa.
ton that Japan again had pro-
tested against the language OF
the Asiatic exclusion section.
The House overturned the veto
last week by a vote of 287 to LOG,
so the Senate's action ends the
contest of 20 years standing, in
which three presidents have re.
pudiated similar bills passed by
Congress.
The literacy test provided fol
in the bill excludes from the
United States all aliens over IL
years of age physically capable
of reading who cannot read the
English language or some other
language or dialect, including
Hebrew or Yiddish. Any admis.
sible alien, however, or any citi'
zen of the United States may
bring in or send for his father
or grandfather over IS years OF
age, his wife, mother, grand.
mother or unmarried or widowed
daughter if otherwise admissible
regardless of whether such rela-
tives can read.
Immediately after the Senate S
action Representatives Gardner.
of Massachusetts,, introduced in
the House a new American mea-
sure to limit the number of aliens
coming into this country to a
total of 10000 in excess of the
outgoing aliens.
President Cleveland vetoed the
first immigration measure with
a literacy test provision. Presi-
dent Taft disapproved the second
bill and in 1915 President Wilson
rejected the third. President
Wilson wrote his second veto
message a few weeks ago.
Only 80 vetoes have been over
ridden in the history of the
United States, and but four of
them have been within the past
35 years. In 1882 Congress pass
ed a river and harbor bill over
President Authur's veto. In 1886
one of the 524 pension bills veto
ed by Cleveland was forced
through Congress. In Roose-
velt's administration a bill to ex-
tend time for construction of a
dam on the Rainy River, in
Minnesota, was passed despite
executive disapproval and Pres
ident Taft's rejection of the
Webb-Kenyon interstate COM
merce liquor law was repudiated.

FEEDING LAMBS FOR PROFIT
As Much Difference in Quality Of AMI.
mails for Feeding as There Is in
Any Other Stock.

Too many lamb feeders are salts
fed with anything just so it is a lamb.
Too many persons get the lamb.feed-
ing fever because some neighbor Fed
lambs last winter and made big
money doing so. There is just as
much difference In the quality Of
lambs for feeding as there is in cat
tie or any other variety of stock. 1t
is best to secure the aid of some
sheep expert to assist in the buying
of lambs, as a lot of lambs well
bought are almost sure to be money
makers.
The fleece counts for something in
the profit, especially if lambs are held
and shorn. There is a difference in
lambs in taking on flesh; there is
difference in the type and general ap-
pearance Of sheep, of lambs, or live
stock in all departments Of breeding
and feeding, and this difference
counts for or against the animals in
their sale as breeders or feeders. 1t
is usually money made to buy the best
lambs to start on; they bring best re-
suits in the end.

WINTER REPAIR WORK
Plan to Overhaul All Buildings
and Farm Equipment.
Exercise Of Little Thought at This Sea-
son viii often Save Much Time
Later on When Outdoor Work
Is impossible.

SO long as good weather continues
in the fall most farmers are so busy
with threshing corn and potato har-
vest, fall seeding, hauling, etc, that
less important work is usually post
poned until winter, However, the ex-
ercise Of little thought and the ex-
pendimre of very few minutes at
this season will often save not only
hours but days later on, when the
weather and roads get bad and out
door work is impossible.
Then the odd jobs of overhauling
the farm equipment, repairing, paint
ing, etc, which have been put Oft
until a slack season, will require at
tention; but all too often the neces-
sary materials will not be on hand,
and the work will be delayed until it
is possible to make a trip to town,
and not infrequently it remains UNI
done until the busy season the follow
ing year, when necessity demands it,
A list should be made Of the things
that will be wanted for this work. 1t
will only take Il few minutes to jot
them down as they are brought to
mind, and then on the next trip to
town they may be bought and set
aside 50 they will be ready when want
ed. The condition OF the different ma
chimes which will, or should be, over
hauled, should be noted, and the parts
which will need to be replaced pur-
chased Then there are the odd jobs
Of repairing buildings, fences, gates,
etc, which will require lumber and
nails. There is no need to make an
extra trip for them when wanted;
they may be brought home the next
time load is taken to town. Like
wise the lumber and hardware for
the small jobs of construction which
should be done before spring. Also
the paints, oils, putty, and brushes
which will be required in painting the
various farm wagons, implements,
inside woodwork, furniture, ETC., and,
above all, the necessary materials for
the improvements planned for the
house should be obtained so that they
can be completed this winter and not
have to wait another year.
Everyone knows how much more
satisfactory it is to have the necessary
equipment ready to perform piece Of
work when an opportunity presents,
than to get started on it and then find
that it will have to be postponed until
a trip can be made to town, which,
even if the roads are good, and the
trip can be made at once, means a
loss of time and added expense. II
is astonishing how much can be ac-
compllshed on rainy days or during
slack times, when the tools and ma
terials are at hand.

STUDY THE MARKET DEMANDS
Breeder Should Strive to Produce
Only Best Animals and Meet
Needs of the Consumer.
NV s. T. SIMPSON,


We must study the market de-
mands carefully and select good sires
Of the types that will enable us to
meet them. If we find that the
butcher or packer likes an animal Of
extreme beef type because that ami
nal yields a high percentage of the
high-priced cuts, the sires must be
selected accordingly. If we find that
the horse buyer takes the big, drafty,
sound horse in preference to the
chunk when his order calls for horses
for heavy work, we must secure sires
that will get colts of that type, If we
ship or sell to a market which de-
mands bacon hogs, then the boar
should be the best obtainable individ-
ual of a bacon breed which is in good
demand in that market.
In any case we must strive to pro-
duce only the best animals and to be
sure that they are uniformly good
and that there are among them no
insists or inferior specimens which
do not meet the consumers needs.

CORN VALUABLE IN THE SIL0
Where Used for Feeding Sio Is Most
Economical Place to Store the
Entire Plant.

An acre of corn ensiled with ears
and stalks viii produce as much, if
not more, milk or beef than the same
acre of corn with the stalks enslled
and the ears fed as ground corn. The
extra expense and labor of husking
and storing the ear corn is very
largely wasted unless the desire is
to market the ear corn.
If there is sufficient feed on the,
farm and the ear corn will cure out
properly when snapped off in the man
ner described then it might be profit
able to follow this practice; but If the
corn is not to be sold as ear corn and
is to be used for feeding on the farm,
then the silo is the most economical
place in which to store the entire
corn plant.

SUPPLY VARIETY IN WINTER
Any Kind Of sueeulent Feed, Such as
Glover, Corn, Fodder, Leaves,
Bsets, Etc, Are Good.

1t Is only in the winter, when the
food is dry and the hens confined, that
the difficulty affordlng a variety of
green food is met. Variety in green
food is better than one kind. The term
SCREEN food" does not apply to grass
or cabbages only, but includes any
kind Of bulky, succulent food, such as
clover, corn fodder, leaves, cabbage,
beets, ensilage, potatoes, turnips, car
rots, etc. The object is to give bulk in
order to dilute (if it can be so ex-
pressed) the concentrated grains.
These foods are the cheapest that can
be used, and lessen the cost Of produc-
ton of eggs, not only by promoting the
health of the fowls but also because
such foods assist in the digestion of
the more costly kinds.
In feeding green food, variety may
be attained by giving cabbage one day,
beets the next, potatoes the next, and
so on. The object should be to lay in
supply of such articles and have
them ready for use when winter
comes. Grass is the cheapest of all
foods for poultry in summer, and the
farmer who feeds grain at that sea-
son is not only increasing the cost of
eggs, but taking the risk of causing in
digestion. On range the birds get
seeds, insects and variety Of grasses,
including young weeds. Ducks and
geese are grass feeders, and can cas-
lily secure more than they require,
while turkeys and guineas are the best
insect destroyers.

TRYING OUT SHEEP BUSINESS
Nothing in inferior Business to En-
courage Farmer in Falling in Love
With Industry.

There is no advantage In trying out
the sheer, business by buying the
cheapest and poorest quality of sheep
to learn on. This class of sheep has
nothing in its favor and the owner has
nothing to encourage him in falling In
love with the industry; in fact, he
could not embark in any live stock in
dustry that would be more trying on
his patience, lend more discourage
ments and have less enthusiasm in it
than to become the owner Of a lot Of
p9or-quality sheep.

COLONY HOUSES FOR WINTER
Excellent Quarters for Breeding Geese
and Turkeys-chlekens Require
Much Fresh Air.

Colony houses make excellent win
ter quarters for breeding geese and
turkeys. Sometimes it may be neces-
sary to leave the front more open than
for chickens. These birds need lot
of air, and the only shelter they need
is enough to protect them from cold
rains, SHOWS and brisk winds.
Ducks can be handled successfully
in the colony houses. Runners, kept
for laying, can be broken up into small
flocks and wintered in this way with
better results than IN large buildings.

If those glands become clogged by
sweat particles and dirt a very i'm
portant waste channel is closed.
In addition to keeping the sweat
glands open and the body in good
working order, grooming improves the
quality Of the hair and the general
condition Of the coat. Feeding alone
will not put a team in proper shape,
but proper grooming combined with
feeding will go far toward it,

EMERGENCY WIRE BELT-LACE

The farmer Of this day and age uses
more or less machinery that is oper-

those who have made use Of it.
When a belt-lacing has worn out and
