rean peculiarities have been noted by
government experts.
Farmers are urged to form leagues
of war with any tribes of lark spar

Arkansas kingbirds, crow blackbirls
and common kingbirds that show up
around the farm, thereby obtaining
the services of a vigilant. and hungry

matter how good a man he was, he
would have to keep referring to the

long experience and study he had
learned the prices to these different

the new man and to Mr.. Cone and II
would be q loss to the railroad com.

not make that kind Of a change un-
less there were some good reason
for 1t.
Would you 60 to firing your city
officials and putting others in their
places, just for the purpose Of hav-
ing change, you furnish demon
stration of the act that the public
are tickle and will cut of noses to
spite their faces. The city officials
are transacting business affecting
you and your interests and if you
60 at it blindly to remove some Of.
ficials for personal reasons and put
in others just to spite some individ-
ual you are jeopardizing your prop
erty interests and your business in
terests for purely personal matter.
You would not do that in your pri-
vate affairs; you haven't the courage
to do it. II you are merchant and
a customer comes in clustering about
something regarding the city politics
or the city business and he expresses
an opinion that is directly opposite
to what you believe and at the same
time shows an interest in buying a
dollars worth Of goods of some kind,
you will restrain yourself severely to
get to sell him that dollars worth of
goods and If telling him exactly what
you think, might prevent his doing
the buying act, you would not say q
word about your differences of opin-
ion. That Is why we said, just above,
that you would not do that way in
your private business affairs; you
haven't the courage and it would not
be considered good business.
II you attend the nominating con-
yention tonight for the purpose of
protecting your own interests to the
very. best of your ability, you will
need to apply. the same principles to
the city business that you apply to
your own business or that you would
apply in any of the cases we have
mentioned heretofore in this article.

The winter care Of milk calls for un-
usual care in washing all tin things
used. In summer 1t is easier to keep
clean; we have the sunshine to help

the more reason why we should place
extra stress on using hot water and
soap, with good pure cold water for

The Prussian elections sunday have

of the Prussian political system, the
Catholic centrist party, remains un-
touched. but both parties that were
relied upon to WELD a neutralizing
influence on the extremists are
crumbling.
From the returns now available, il
is evident that the nationalistic and
German peoples party-the latter HUI
go Shines own party-the two rep
resenting the reactionary movement,
and the communist party. which for
the first time appeared as a party
on any German election ballot, took
many seats in the PruSsian diet from
the other parties.
Both extremes had their most bitter
clashes in Berlin itself. For several
nights before the election day the
writer witnessed meetings of the Pam
