Wheat-EXport demand for wheat Tor
quick shipment has been revived. This
condition, coupled with the refusal Of the
country to sell in any volume, has
strengthened the entire market. Lead
ing cash interests have been the best
buyers. Premiums for cash wheat were
advanced to the basis of 16 cents over
December. There was n report that South
America had bought one or two cargoes
Of United States wheat. No confirmation
of this was obtainable.
Corn-The immediate and therefore the
more active, elements, IN the corn situa-
ton, namely. inadequate receipts and in
creasing premiums, have been respon-
sible for a change OF position by former
sellers of corn. Crop news and weather
forecast are not unfavorablc. New crop
corn from Argentina is reported a be-
ing offered at $1.S0 in New York. Items
Of this nature have been ignored in the
face of material strength In the cash
markets here and southwest. Yellow corn
was in demand from shippers, selling rs
high as l6 cents over September and
being quoted cents higher for the day
In this market and cents in St Louis
One of the local industries claims %
have supplied its immediate needs in cash
corn. None the less, the cash market
closes strong with no evidence OF any
increase in the receipts. We are inclined
10 believe that the cash position is be
ing more widely recognized by the trade
and will be the dominating influence,
preventing any weakness until the diff
ference between the September and the
current receipts is overcome.
Oats-Stagnltion prevails in the oats
market, trade being entirely of a local
character. Sentiment favors lower prices
bur the strength In corn prevents ex-
ploitauon OF hearish ideas. Seaboard
again reports export inquiry but does
not give any business as closed.
Provis!ons-There was some better tone
10 provisions based on the action OF
grains, although there were more inquir-
les for cash lard. Entire market Is dun
and awaits developments

NEW YORK, Aug. 12.-The sustaining
feature in cotton today was the unfavor-
able weather map, which proved insult
ficient against the statement Of condition
by the National Ginners' association, stat
ing the condition at 75.5. further com
plfcated European situation, easier cotton
markets in the south and heavy selling
in the early afternoon, supposed to be for
japanese interests.
The National ginners figure was re-
garded as too high, most observers of
crop conditions agreeing that there must
have been deterioration.
A telegram from Charlotte. n. c., how
ever, said that farmers in that section
did not regard rains as dangerous.
AS a matter Of fact, rains this month
would be beneficial, except that they in

son was the pioneer of the Penroses,
Cranes and the modern party bosses.
The National Republican Party in
1881 held the first national conven-
ton. This was really an informal
gathering of the friends OF Henry
Clay. 1t was, as we would now call
it, a mass convention. 1t met in Bal
timore in December and by unan1-
nous voice nominated Henry Clay
as the partys candidate for presi-
dent. This body recommended also
the holding of a similar meeting of
young men" at Washington in May;
and this gathering known as Clay S
infant class" met also and nominated
him unanimously.
Wise old General Jackson, who was
president, and who was unopposed
as candidate for denomination, saw
in this new method certain elements
of popularity and having an instinct
for getting close to the people he
adopted this development of politics
and set about calling the first i'm
portant presidential convention to
nominate some man for the vice pres
idency on the ticket with himself.
He had the convention adopt the
following resolution, which is i'm
portant, as it is the original of the
famous two-thirds rule:
Resolved, That each state be en-
titled, in the nomination to be made
of a candidate for the vice presiden-
cy, to a number of votes equal to the
number to which they will be entitled
in the electoral colleges under the
new apportionment, in voting for
president and vice president; and
that two-thirds of the whole num-
Der of the votes in the convention
shall be necessary to constitute a
choice"

The Democratic convention OF
1912 met at Baltimore and begar
with Champ Clark of Missouri as
strongest candidate. On the ninth
ballot, Clark had a clear majority of
the delegates, and on the tenth he
polled $50 votes.
Had it not been for the require
ment in Democratic conventions that
the candidate must poll two-thirds of
the vote, Clark would have been the
Democratic nominee But this re-
quirement defeated him and on the
forty-third ballot the convention
chose Woodrow Wilson.
1t was William j. Bryan who was
chiefly responsible for Clark's defeat.
He opened the convention with a
charge that an effort was being made
by "Wall Street" to dictate the nomi-
nation, and intimated that Clark s
support by Thomas Fortune Ryan and
Tammany Hall made the Clark can
didacy impossible.
Clark was very angry over his de-
feat and at once issued a statement
in which he said:
81 lost the nomination solely
through the vile and malicious SLAM
ders of Colonel William Jennings
Bryan Of Nebraska. True, these SLAM
ders were by innuendo and insinua-
ton, but they were no less deadly for
that reason" He concluded his state
ment, Il will support Governor Will
son with whatever power | possess
and hope he will be elected"
This rule is queer historic legacy.

of his party, and his purpose in in
venting it was admittedly to enable
him to substitute his will for HAT #

LETTERS FROM
THE PEOPLE

Dear Editor
Somebody has been slandering one
OF my oldest and closest friends. Will
you give me space to defend him?
When | was little kid | spent a
week floating down the Mississippi
river with Huckleberry Finn. NV
heart was in my mouth when Huck's
dad beat him and when the thunder
storm broke upon the wrecked steam
er with Huck and the robbers aboard.
In fact, Huck Finn and were con-
siderable pals. Well, the other day
| heard that Finn had gone into the
movies and | dropped in to see him
act.
1t Sure was natural you might
say, along toward the front of the
picture, and just like it happened to
Huck and me when | borrowed the
book from the M. E. church library.
But, when the fellow that was
doing Huck got to the part where
the Duke Of Bilgewater and the Dol
phln act like they were the uncles of
the girls and try to get their faith
ers' money Huck fell in love with
Mary Janet
That amt right, and you know it
isn't, Mr.. Editor Huck never fell in
love with that girl. He wasn't that
kind of chap. He never was sweet
on anybody in the whole book, and
that's one reason l was a pal of his.
Neither of US had much use for girls
in those days.
A fellow told me that they had to
put in the "love interests" to sell the
picture to folks. I don't know, not
being picture actor, but it sure hurt
me to see Huck slandered that way. .
Yours,

IF KIDNEYS AND
BLADDER BOTHER
Take Salts to Flush Kidneys and
Neutralize Irritating
Acids.

Kidney and Bladder weakness re-
suit from uric acids, says a noted
authority. The kidneys filter this
acid from the blood and pass it on to
the bladder, where it often remains to
irritate and inflame, causing a burn
ing, scalding sensation, or setting up
an irritation at the neck of the bled-
der, obliging you to seek relief two
or three times during the night. The
sufferer is in constant dread, the
water passes sometimes with a scald-
ing sensation and is very profuse;
again, there is difficulty in avoiding
it.
Bladder weakness, most folks call
it, because they can't control urina-
ton. While it is extremely annoying
and sometimes very painful, this is
really one of the most simple ailments
to overcome. Get about four ounces
Of Jad Salts from your pharmacist
and take a tablespoonful in a glass of
water before breakfast, continue this
for two or three days. This will neu-
~tralize the acids in the urine so it no
longer is a source Of irritation to the
bladder and urinary organ which
then act normally again.
Jad Salts is inexpensive, harmless,
and is made from the acid of grapes
and lemon juice, combined with lithia,
and is used by thousands of folks who
are subject to urinary disorders caus-
ed by uric acid irritation. Jad Salts
is splendid for kidneys and causes no
bad effects whatever.
Here you have a pleasant efferves-
cent lithia-water drink which quickly
relieves bladder trouble.

RELATIVE VALUE
OF CORN S|LAGE
INSTRUCTIVE ARTICLE OF IN
TEREST TO FARMERS AND
STOCKMEN OF IDAHO

E. F. Rinehart. field animal hus-
bandman of the University of Idaho
extension staff, has furnished the
press with the following highly inter
esting and instructive article on
Corn Silage for Cattle and Sheep"
The article is timely and if carefully
read and studied ought to have a
noticeable effect on the acreage of
corn to be planted this year. His
article follows:
Numerous inquiries as to the COM
parative value of corr silage and al
falfa hay have been received recently.
Since best results are secured by feed
ing the two together, a comparison is
difficult to make. Alfalfa hay is an
unbalanced ration containing an ex-
cess of protein and a shortage of
sugar and starch. Corn silage is an
unbalanced ration containing an ex-
cess of sugar and starches and a
shortage Of protein. The combina-
ton of the two feeds makes a bal
anced ration where there is but little
waste to be thrown off.
Value of Corn Silage.
A very common practice is to esti-
mate good silage worth five-eights
the value of hay-that is; when hay is
worth SIG per ton, silage is worth
$40 per ton. Other sections take it at
one-half the value of hay, and some,
especially those of the east, at one
third. The Indiana station, as a re-
suit of carefully checked investiga-
tons, arrives at the following con-
in comparing the value of
silage with grain:
The daily star-mirror. (Moscow, Idaho) 1911-1939, 1920-01-20
Silage per ton
SilagA for Sheen.


Corn silage, free from mold and not
too acid, promotes thrift and keeps
the digestive tract in condition. While
the amount that has been fed sue
c~essfully to pregnant ewes varies
from n to five pounds, a safe rule is
to feed two pounds per head daily in
combination with alfalfa hay. After
Landing, the proportion can be in
creased.
A number of Idaho range men
make the practice of ~reserving the
silage until after lambing time. This
is in order that the milk flow may be
increased as the lamb grows larger.
1t is only recently that the value of
corn silage as a ration for lessening
the cost of fattening sheep has been
recognized. In checking results with
seven trials, it was found that 100
pounds Of good col silarge saved
eight pounds of corn and A pounds
of clover hay. Counting corn at 3
cents per pound and clover hay at SIS
per ton, silage had a value of $11.40
per ton. Besides cheapening the
gains by the addition of silage, a
better finish was usually the result
although not always. In feeding
both cattle and sheep. the result de-
ponds largely upon the quality of the
and the care in feeding.
Silage for Steers.
In Idaho records have been kept on
over 400 head of steers fed silage
compared with 400 fed hay alone.
Taking 100 head of each that made
the smallest gains, the results are
w VI, 81 =. xv1, - {Io l4x, no1xs-~
100 head of each that did the best,
the results are in favor of the silage.
In the latter case, these were with
the most careful feeders hence the
results are possibly above the average
At any rate, much better care and
more attention has been given by
men than in the case of many
feeders. The results of the best lots
are as follows:
Hay alone, average daily gain, 1.67
pounds.
Hay and silage, average daily gain,
L.88 pounds.
AS the best of care was gwen and
he feeders in both cases were of ex-
types, the possible explana-
ion is that the second ration was we'll
planned and balanced.
Results of 10 years experience of
he experiment stations throughout
he corn belt show that silage cheap
ms a ration. 1t does not necessarily |
Increase the finish but the silage fed
were finished at an average
# about 81. 38 per cwt. less than when
he ration contained no silage. The
indiana station reports that where
ilage is used, there is an increase
f about $1,000 per head on the prof
Is.

that silage fed cattle shrink more but
this is due to the failure to properly
prepare them for shipment. The more
experienced feeders cut off the silage
for a few days before shipping. Where
this is done, the objection is largely
overcome, especially as silage fed
cattle fill well on the market.
