Some people say that Hiram John
son Of California, candidate for the
nomination Of president of the United
States, talks too much But everyone
knows who have read Hiram's adj
dresses that they contain a good deal
of common sense-in fact all common
sense. Besides they are impregnated
with pure Americanism In an analy-
sis Of the candidates who have so far
filed, the writer has no hesitation in
saying that he is in favor Of the Cali
fornian because he is a business man
and true blue American. AS we
have upon more than one occasion re-
marked, the United States should have
a Businessman for president that mil
itary or naval men and pedagogues are
entirely out of place. General Wood,
who, with others: has also filed, is
doubtless conscientious old chap and
a splendid American citizen, but these
quail cations alone do not fill the bill.

presiq lent of the -'Tnited States---a man

c. I. Weikert of the law department
Of the state university, says that the
remission by Secretary Baker of the
sentence of Lawrence Perlmutter
who was serving 20 years in prison
for treason-is a fragrant miscarriage
of justice and a direct slap at the real
Americans, who served their country
loyalty in the war. Perlmutter was
convicted of treason at Coblenz upon
the charge of giving information to the
enemy Of Mr.. Weikert was at the
trial, so he knows whereof ne speaks
when he. says, "I listened to the evil
dence against him, and l am as certain
today Of his guilt as was then" Mr..
Wiekert declares that the move was
actuated by politics, but be that as it
may, the fact that traitor to his coun-
try was given freedom is a shameful
proceeding an injustice to every
American legionaire. Even with a
sentence Of 20 years Perlmutter was
getting off easy. Shooting is the usual
punishment for a traitor to his coun-
try, and it is none too severe.

The McNary bill, continuing the
United States sugar equalization
board, has been signed by President
Wilson. In speaking Of the equaliza-
ton board Jos. Tumulty said that, as
there is no central control over sugar
in Cuba this year as there was last,
it might be impossible for the govern
ment to now step IN and purchase
sugar without increasing the price to
the consumer. Then, if the equaliza-
tion board cannot operate to reduce
the price Of sugar of what use is it to
the consumer?

The act Of judging is the foundation
of all beef cattle shows and is also
largely the means of determining the
value of cattle offered in public sales,
says Farmers Bulletin No. 1868,
Judging Beef Cattle" recently issued
by the United States department of
agriculture. Each breeder, therefore,
to attain success in his line must be a
good judge, so that he can select and
mate individuals to get the best possi-
bic offspring A thorough knowledg.
of judging feeders, for example, is i'm
portant, since proft'in cattle feeding
usually depends upon buying animals
of the right tyne.
Without definite standards, stock
judging cannot be successful. The
ideal beef type in the fat animal, to
cite another example, consists in low
set body which is broad, deep and
smooth, with straight lines and with a
thick, even covering Of firm flesh. In
addition to this general beef form, good
quality indicated by the hair, hide,
and bone, together with general char
acter and style, are important, because
they are an index to the quality Of the
meat.
The bulletin mentioned takes up in

gether with an easily understood dis
.cussion Of the various types of ami.
mails and the method Of scoring them.

Hens Do Their Bit.

It is questionable if ever before in
the history of education boy came to-
college bringing with him flock of
hens as his financial hackers; but that
this may nowadays happen, not with
one boy but three, is shown by a report
from the Connecticut agricultural col
lege. By arrangement with the col
lege the boys will be able to rent space
for their poultry yards, and the mar
keting of the eggs is expected to meet
the expense of their education. AL
though new in educational history, the
idea is not altogether experimental, for
the undergraduate poultrymen will
have already proved at home that they
can make hens profitable, and the
project rests as firmly on reasonable
study Of past experience as any other
business enterprise. Christian Science
