such as alfalfa, clover, or mixed hay, and corn stover. They should also receive a liberal quantity of succulent feed-silage, carrots, parsnips, and turnips answer the purpose. Corn, oats, bran, barley, iinseed oil meal, or oil cake are the grain feeds best suit ed for a milk-goat ration. A ration that has been used and approved by the United States Department of Ag- riculture for the goats milking sea- son consisted of 2 pounds of alfalfa or clover hay, l h pounds of silage or turnips, and from 1 to 2 pounds of grain. The grain ration is made up Of mixture of 100 pounds of corn, 100 pounds oats, 50 pounds bran, and 10 pounds linseed oil meal. Where it IS possible to turn the goats on pas tllre the does should receive from to F pounds of grain per day of this mixture, with the exception of the linseed oil meal. The department found that it requires about 1 1-5 pounds of grain to produce a quart of milk.
 Care in Feeding.
 Care should always be taken to see that the feed is clean and of good quality. Silage, turnips, and similar feeds that have a strong odor or .fiavor should be fed after milking. and all uneaten food should be re- moved from the trough. Some goat breeders make it practise to gather leaves in the fall, and store them for winter use. This is to be recommend ed especially to suburban families who may have difficulty otherwise in ecuring a sufficient amount of rough age. The goats eat the leaves read fly and the material is also very use ful as bedding. If only one or two goats are kept the refuse from the kitchen such as potato and vegetable parings, cabbage leaves, and waste bread, may be used for feed. A good supply of fresh water is necessary. and rock salt should be kept where the animals can reach it whenever they wish.
 Tn purchasing milk goats it is much more satisfactory to observe the does during their lactation period. This glyes the buyer an opportunity to stndy their conformation when they are producing and the udder develop- ment, which is very important can be better considered Generally sneak ing, the marks and conformation which, distinguish a good dairy COW should appear in good doe.

Collaborating Signatures.

q. under the present law, If there is any opposition to petitions, oppon- ents can challenge a sufficient number of signatures to prevent it's appear ing on the ballot altho these sigma lures may be genuine But, as the petitioners are scattered all over the state, it is not only an expensive pro- cess to establish the validity of these signatures, but almost an impossibil- ity to do, at any cost, in time to get the measure placed upon the ballot before election. thus keeping it off which is usually the sole object of it's opponents. Now, there is a heavy penalty attached to illegal signing or illegality on the part of the solic- itor, and he has to swear to the cor .rectness of his list, the state is pro- tected, and the proof should devolve upon the opponents to prove the sig natures illegal, otherwise the most merltorlous measures could be de- teated by challenging ths genuineness of the signatures and delaying the in- vestigations until after the election, when of course, it would be too late.
 In view of the above the proposed Amendment No, 13 requires the ob- jector to furnish the proof that the names are illegally signed.

IN THREE PARTS-PART III
 The Emergency Clause.

l. The present law provides that in case of necessity of immediate leg islation, the Legislature may attach an emergency clause to a measure which prevents it's being referred to the people for their approval or re- jection. This would be perfectly proper in case of rsal emergency, but the courts have decided that the Legislature is the sole judge of what constitutes an emergency, and, there fore, may attach it to any measure they please, and which they do not wish referred to the people. This practically nullifies one of the original intentions of the Initiative and Refer endum law. The proposed Amend ment No. IS, still gives the Legisla- ture the power of attaching tn emer- gency clause, but provides that it must pass by a yea and nay vote of two- thirds of all the members which con- stitute the emergency.
 This leaves it possible for the Legis- lature to protect that state in case of real emergency, as there would be no trouble in getting a two-thirds vote in favor of a measure if a genu- inc emergency existed. The people are also protected, as it would be vir- tually impossible to get two-thirds of the Legislature to indorse an emerg- ency clause if it did not really exist.
 Amending Initiated Laws.
 ?. Under the present law a meas ure adopted by the people can be amended or changed by the Legis- lature thru the means of an enabling act. The proposed Amendment No. 13 provides that the Legislature can not make a change except by a two-thirds vote of it's members.
 While an unfavorable Legislature might secure a majority vote against the wishes of the people it would be almost impossible for them to get a two-thirds in favor of change, unless conditions truly warranted a change. Yet, if 1t should develop that legisla- tion passed by the people was really bad, there would be no trouble in get ting it repealed or amended by two thirds vote.

TWO MINUTES OF KxCrrHnGEN1

The delivery team for the HAfdman
Lumber Co. caused bunch of excite
ment last Saturday afternoon by run
ming away. A load of refuse had been
thrown on the wagon and was being
hauled to rubbish heap. At the
street crossing at the southwest
corner of the square the driver, Mr..
Gaswint, stopped the team and left
them standing while he went back
few feet to pick up something which
had fallen from the load. His little
son was in the wagon and was hold
ing the lines. The team became rest
less and stepped to one side and the
little fellow holding the lines did what
he could to straighten them out.
Things would have gone along alright
but just at that time an auto come up
the street going west. It came so
close to the team that when they
stepped forward little the wagon
tongue caught against the end of the
car. This frightened the team and as
soon they could get Strengthened
up they started forward on the run.
The refuse rafting in the wagon add
ed to the confusion. The team ran
north and turned east along the north
side OF the courthouse. At the north
east corner they cut too close to the
fence, stirling the corner post with
the wagon which upset Is and threw

THE MEMORIAL HOSPITAL

There is at least one feature con-
corning the proposed memorial hospi-
tai OF which no public mention has
been made but which ought to be OBJ
vious TO all citizens OF average in
formation and observation, and which
ought to appeal to all those who take
an interest in the welfare Of the COM
munity in which they live, and which,
sooner or later, must become q matter
personally important to each and all
of u.s. We al1ude to the matter Of ex-
pert nuTsing-the home care OF the
sick It is admitted that the recovery
of the sick and afflicted and their res
toration to health and productive la
Dor depends quite as much, OF even
more, upon careful nursing as it does
upon the attendance Of q competent
physician This Is 30 well known that
every case OF serious Illness creates
demand for the services Of compe-
tent nurse. So common and SO in
sistent is this demand and so limited
the supply OF trained nurses the patti
ent must often be taken to a hospital,
at considerable trouble and expense,
in order to have even ordinary care
and attention, or the expert service
which alone may reasonably insure
success and sound recovery. Not only
, would q hospital within easy reach
be a good thing for any community
directly, but it would in some measure
provide place for the training and
instruction OF nurses and thus in
crease the supply of efficient help
which is sorely needed, not only in or
dinary times but especially in times
of epidemics. No one knows when a
contagon may appear in any commun-
ity and conditions become desperate.
No neighborhood is immune and such
condition in our community is with
