In one of the companies of a Wisconsin Militia Regiment are ten students of Laurence College, who are studying for the ministry. While the regiment was at Camp Douglas during the summer of 1910 some of the boys of the company thought to have a little fun at the expense of the two students. Some one sent a keeg of beer to the regiment as a treat, and when the beer was to be served, they asked the captain to let the two students serve it, and he agreed. The boys were jubilant. One of the students refused, but the other—Private Keith—took the notice which read—"The beer must be served on the grounds, and no man must get drunk." Keith asked the lieutenant if the company might be held at parade while he served the beer. He was assured that it should be done. Keith then rolled the keg in front of the company, and knocked out the bung, and let the beer run out on the ground, turned to his lieutenant, saluted and said: "Lieutenant, I have served the beer on the grounds, and am sure no man is drunk." * * AN APPROPRIATE DREAM A poor laborer had a curious dream one night. He dreamed that he saw coming towards him four rates. The first was very fat, the two next lean, and the last blind. To dream about rats denotes calamity, and the man was very uneasy and perplexed. He appealed to his wife to solve the dream, but she could not help him, but his son volunteered to interpret it as follows; "The fat rat," he said, "is the man who keeps the saloon you go to often, the two lean ones are my mother and me, and the blind rat is my father." IN JAIL FOR LIFE Chauncey Depew got this off: An old negro was brought to trial in a Southern town for stealing a chicken. "Rastus," said the judge, "before pronouncing sentence, 'I'm about to give you two months in the workhouse. Have you anything to say for yourself?' "Good Lawd, boss!" exclaimed the old man. "Two months! for stealing one beef!" "Have you anything to say?" repeated the judge sternly. "All I got to say, boss" declared the Negro, "is, taint no use to sen' me to no jail for two months for stealin' one chicken, 'case, 'case of I spent two months in jail for every chicken I done stole. I might as well done been bawu in jail." JIMMY TRADDLES. Jimmy was a laborer. Working at a distance from his home, he took his dinner along as many laborers have to do. One day when he sat down to eat his dinner, he missed his bucket, —some one must have stolen it." "Boys", he said, "I've lost my lunch," then he gave a cheery laugh.

Says Lawe Can Not Make Men Temperate and Belloves In Local Louisville, Ky.-Dr. E. L. Powell, for twenty years one of the most brilliant ministers in a local pastorate, and a leader in the cause of good government, has gone on record against the principles of prohibitory laws In a recent communication to the Louisville Courier-Journal, Dr. Powell says: "Prohibition differentiates culture through restraint as contra-distinguished from culture through liberty. From this standpoint the argument is still against prohibition. Statutory enactment is powerless to make a man love righteousness. It was because the law was a failure, both as prohibitive and injunctive, that the Gospel was given unto man, emphasizing the great truth that not outward conformity to statutory provisions can make character, but only love of the right or obedience to the law because of an educated moralistic preference for the right. Opposes State-wide. "I am opposed to state-wide prohibition because legal prohibition does not and can not change the existing and confessedly recognized evils of the liquor traffic. The best that law can do in the realm of moral conduct is to regulate. No prohibitory statute of any kind prohibits. The regulation of the liquor traffic by means of high license, and local option, is the very best that law can do at this time. At one time I was a member of the Anti-Saloon league board of the state, and, although no longer a member of the board, I am just as honestly and sincerely a temperance man, but I have not believed, and do not believe, that the evils of the liquor traffic will ever be eradicated by way of prohibition." YOUNG MEN TO VOTE Governor Believes They Will Kill Prohibition Law. Augusta, Me.—Gov. Plaisted, of Maine, in a recent interview, declared that nine-tenths of the young man of Maine will vote at the coming election to have the prohibition amendment taken out of the constitution of that state. "The young men of Maine want something else to think of except the rum question," said the governor. "Maine is a state of great and magnificent undeveloped resources, and the time is at hand when the young men of the state are going to develop these resources, but first they desire to get this hypocrisy of the organic law of Maine out of the way. Maine, I believe, is entering upon a new era. We want to be rid of this eternal liquor question, and I feel that the time is now at hand when the voters of Maine will see that it is settled once for all by having it taken from the constitution, for they are tired of trifling with the subject. Personally, I do not favor county option. That would still mean too unwieldy a subject to handle. I prefer the town option plan. Under this latter system the people of Maine would really have self-government and the people could then deal with the problem as it seemed the most desirable in their own localities. When these things come to pass Maine will cease to be a state which is ridiculed because she has laws which are openly violated every day in the year."

Baker, Jr. AN INCIDENT OF HIS EARLY CAREER. In a recent issue of the Philadelphia North American there is a brief sketch of the early career of Newton D. Baker, Mayor-elect of Cleveland, Ohio. The writer, who, some years ago, was his teacher in the High School of Morrisburg, and naturally feels an interest in his former pupil, deems it proper to give a short extract from that sketch, presuming also that it may interest his many friends in our city as well as elsewhere. The following is the incident, which occurred while Baker was in the law office of Judge Foran Judge Foran, a leading Democrat, was scheduled to address a political meeting one night, but was taken ill at the last minute, and sent Baker to make his apologies. "Now, Baker is physically a light-weight, slender, short of stature, not tipping the scales to an extent that makes many weights necessary. And it goes without saying, that his appearance twelve years ago was more youthful than it is today. The chairman of the meeting was Pat McKinney, a typical Irishman of the rough school. "Gintlemen," said Pat: "Mr. Foran is seek tonight, so he has sent his boy to speak 'for him. Come or! and tell 'em what you know." And the boy did. Before he finished speaking the crowd forgot that Baker was a small man physically. They saw only a giant in brains and oratory, and from that day to this, the Irish in Cleveland have been Baker's friends and backers in any venture he proposes." This incident verifies the anticipation and prediction of his teacher, that Baker possessed the elemental talents, which, in their future development, would make him the able attoreey and orator that he is. (Rev.) William Gerhardt, D. D. STORAGE ROOM SHOULD BE DRY AND WELL VENTILATED. A Moderate Temperature Should Be Maintained—Proper Care Very Important. By I. S. Cook, Professor of Ageconomy, West Virginia University. A great many articles have been published in farm papers during the last five years on selecting seed corn, while the importance of properly storing it during the winter has not been given enough attention. To show the importance of properly storing seed corn during the winter, I will give you the information obtained on this question by the state experiment station of one of the leading corn states. In March of 1911, a letter was sent to a well-known corn grower in each county of the state, requesting that they send a sample of their seed corn that they intended to plant to the experiment station to be tested. This request was complied with by most of the farmers receiving letters, and after germinating the corn it was found that the average per cent of germination was very near 70. The highest per cent of germination was 98, there being two samples reaching that mark. The period of germination occupied from 12 to 14 days, about the number of days it requires for corn to germinate in the field when we have unfavorable conditions in the spring at planting time. The question may be asked. What per cent of germination would seed corn of the average farmer show when seed corn obtained from farmers above the average only showed about 70 per cent? The low ```markdown ``` Convenient Corn-Drying Rack, Which Likewise Serves for Numbering the Ears Tested for Germination.—(U. S. Dept. Agri.). per cent of germination may be attributed to several causes, but improperly storing it during the winter is one. One of the samples of corn showing 98 per cent germinator was taken from the stalk, when ripe, just before cutting, and stored in a well-ventilated room, where the temperature ranged during the winter from 40 to 70 degrees. The ears were fastened to a two-inch square piece of timber three feet long by means of long wire nails with very small heads, shown as finishing nails, driven slanting in the two-inch square timber on each side, spacing the nails three and one-half inches apart. The ears of corn were thrust on these nails in the butt end of the ears. About one bushel of cars can be stored on such a device. A screw-eye is put in the top of the timber, on which the cars are fastened, and a screw-hook is put in a rafter, joist or ceiling of a building, and it is thus hung out of the way of rats and mice. The cars can be stored in this way without touching, thus having good ventilation. Be sure that there is an air current passing through the room. The old-time method of tying may be used in storing seed corn, and it is just as good a method as any, only it is not quite so convenient when it comes time to germinate the corn, as the method of storing as above described. Take a piece of binding twine about 12 feet long, tie the ends together and place the first car on the two strings, resting on the floor. Cross the strings by passing the hand holding one loop end of the two strings through the two strings held by the other hand, and so continue until all the string is all used, after which it may be hung up overhead in the room the same as in the above method. This method is inexpensive and simple. SCHOOL AGRICULTURE. The bulletin entitled School Agriculture, edited last year by Prof. D. W Working, will be continued this year by Prof. A. W. Nolan of the department of agricultural education of the state university. The first issue will reach all the teachers of West Virginia some time this month. The subject of the September bulletin is, "Selecting and Storing Seed Corn." When China awakes, the whole world will marvel at her power. The Truth Well Told The Truth Well Told Don't be afraid to speak ill of the dead. No man that has lived should be saved from deserved criticism by the commonplace fact of ceasing to be alive. "I should wish," said the Cardinal de Bernis, "that every regard of politeness be preserved for the living, but that it might be permitted to speak freely one's mind of the dead." From the lips of our unworthy teachers we have received a cluster of proverbial folly. and among all those follies there are few aphorisms better calculated to let well enough alone than that reverend command, "Concerning the dead, nothing but good." Could anything be more ingenuous? Good men die as easily as bad ones, and yet the bad ask us to regard death as their excuse! Conceal your iniquity until you die, and your reputation is secure. Of course; if a villain is as long dead as Caliguta, if the worst that he did has at last followed him into the grave, I may point out his wickedness—until some simple soul of an historical whitewasher comes along with his brush and pail. But if a political boss dies today, I may not attack the infamous deeds that survive him and they continue to work out their evil while the earth is fresh above his corpse. If your senator bought his seat at Washington, you may say so at 9 a.m., but if, at 9:15, he falls, in a drunken stupor, from his train and is killed on his way to the capital, then you must not warn his sucbessor, you must not expose the briber, because the briber is no more. Let us look at this thing frankly. Filled as our lives are with daily shame, there is no more absurd and abominable sham about us than the mask of sorrow that we wear to the funeral of a rogue. As a matter of fact, the dead, being safe from physical punishment, should be the more open to such reprobation as their acts may have courted. In a true sense, "the evil that men do lives after them." To condone the faults of the dead is to corrupt the morality of the living.—R. gibald W, K. uffman, in The Cosmopolitan. STATE TO VOTE. West Virginia to Decide on Prohibition Amendment to Constitution. Charleston, W. Va.—West Virginia is one of the states which will vote soon on state-wide prohibition. An amendment to the constitution to permit the submission of the question to the voters was passed by the last general assembly. The vote will be cast on the proposed prohibition amendment at the general election in 1912. The last election on state-wide prohibition in West Virginia was held 24 years ago, and a prohibition amendment was rejected by a majority of 40,000. The recent election in Texas, resulting in that state rejecting a prohibition amendment; the return to licensed saloons in Alabama and the action of many "dry" counties in West Virginia in repudiating county option, has resulted in a strong sentiment against the amendment throughout the state. The prohibition leaders, however, have started their campaign by the organization of clubs in the interior counties. They are making efforts to allign themselves with one of the two big political parties, but so far both Democrats and Republicans have regarded the issue as a two-edge sword.

The Morgantown Post, one of the best and ablest Republican papers in the state foresees well when it tells its party that if it nomintes Taft its doomed. According to the facts of record in the case, Kelly Miller to the contrary notwithstanding, both Washington and Ulrich were in court. It takes two to play a game at law, and with the preponderance of evidence goes the verdict. There is but one way to please the people and win politically and that is by allowing the trend of politics to go back to that old time way of nominating, and that sensible and easily understood old time ballot As it is, the purposes and plans of politics is bribery and deception and as sure as the sun will shine to morrow, hatred to man will follow the one, and destruction of this country the other. W. Morgan Shuster, the expert American financier, who, early in the year was commissioned to assume charge of Persia's financial affairs, is persons congrats with the Russian government, and as a result, the Czar and his Cabinet have ordered his immediate dismissal. This was not all—in addition to the action above referred to, it has sent the Shah an ultimatum, which says, in effect, Shuster goes, or the Czar of all the Russia's will order his navy to forthwith begin shelling Persia's capital. A somewhat surprising feature of the whole affair is the fact that Great Britain is backing up the demands of Russia, and plainly says so. As a result of the Czar's imperious demands, Shuster will get his walking papers and the incident will go down in history as a closed issue. While Shuster was not officially designated by the United States Government to perform the duties he has been about in Persia, he was recommended as a fit person to do the work expected of him by the State Department, yet Uncle Sam feels disposed to have nothing to say in any way regarding the controversy. This is the way for the Washington Government to act, but some people are led to wonder if the action would be the same were Russia and Great Britain as insignificant as are some other powers. MAY IT BE—That there has been, even in the days of slavery, a mingling of tears in joy and sorrow; hugging and kissing by the slaves and their owners, is as true as the sun shines—possibly, more common in Virginia than any other slave State. Virginia has no cause to be ashamed of her colored people in her own confines, nor the United States over. All over the state, they are in education, industry, morality, home getting, land owning and farming, astounding the world. The bank of which Editor John Mitchell Jr., is President equals the best in Amer- ica. Go anywhere you may out of the state and you will find our most progressive men and women proudly own old Virginia. A similar feeling still obtains in many sections of the State. For instance, it is not an uncommon thing when a person dies, on the day and at the time of burial, all work stops, and all hands attend with their pay going on. As long as that goes on brotherly love will grow What a pity Henry W. Grady did not live to spread this conduct all over the South. The action of that Sate in the Beattie trial from start to finish has put it in the lime light, and the Governor's conduct was par excellent. By having endeared youself to the world in law by one bad crime, in the name of God and justice endear youselves to God and humanity the world over, by wiping out your jim-crow laws, and diefranchising clauses, and let's be loving brothers in freedom as we were in slavery. None of us have long to live, hence bow necessary to live right. What a rebuke it would be to the North, for the South that held the blacks in slavery, to turn over a new leaf, and teach it a lesson in kindness, justice and fairplay.

WANT OPTION OKLAHOMA LOCAL OPTION LEADERS BEGIN FIGHT AGAINST AN UNJUST LAW. Business Men's Leagues Are Organizing to Foster Wet Sentiment Oklahoma City, Okla.—The Oklahoma Local Option association has established headquarters at Oklahoma City. The association will be opposed by the Oklahoma Anti-Saloon league, which maintains permanent headquarters in Oklahoma City. Mr. Frank Stearns, Shawnee, Okla., is president of the Local Option association. He was formerly mayor of Shawnee, where he is now engaged in business. The Local Option association will organize the business men's leagues for the purpose of fostering the "wet" sentiment in each of the counties of the state. The association is opposed to county option, and intends to conduct the fight for the freedom of every city from "dry" domination on a local option basis. Each town wants to settle the matter for itself. The western half of the state of old Oklahoma territory is a prohibition stronghold. Eastern Oklahoma and the large towns of Western Oklahoma will give their solid strength to the "wets." In both previous elections the "drys" won by substantial majorities. Because of the lack of enforcement of the prohibitory laws, the sentiment is said to have swung to the side of the open saloon, licensed and regulated. "DRY" GEORGIA SOLONS GET "WET" RECEPTION Macon, Ga.—Nearly three hundred members of the general assembly of Georgia recently visited Macon as the city's guests to inspect sites offered for the state capitol building, should it be decided to move it from Atlanta to Macon. Although Georgia is "dry," the Macon Capitol association furnished the solons with 5,000 bottles of beer, 100 gallons of Bergundy punch. 100 gallons of buttermilk, 100 gallons of lemonade, 1,000 pounds of barbecued meats and other Georgia delicacies. The 5,000 bottles of beer disappeared first from the refreshments, although nearly all the legislators are avowed prohibitionists. Seven candidates for governor were present. Austin, Texas.—Investigations into alleged frauds in the recent election for state-wide prohibition has degenerated into an effort to manufacture campaign thunder for the prohibitionists. At a recent prohibition conference in Fort Worth resolutions were adopted to devote a large portion of the special session of the legislature, and a considerable amount of the state's money, to manufacture sentiment against Gov. Colquitt, who stumped the state against prohibition in the recent election. Texas papers are fighting the action of the prohibitionists in the legislature, claiming that their action is the rule of the majority over the minority, and that in the fight the public is footing the bill. The prohibitionists in the Texas legislature are charged with frittering away the state's money when the state treasury is depleted. OKLAHOMA WETS INSIST ON SPECIAL LEGISLATIVE SESSION. Oklahoma City, Okla.—Inquirles sent to members of the legislature recently by Gov. Lee Cruce have strengthened the belief that a special session of the legislature will be held during the fall and winter to redistrict the state and to decide on the re submission of the liquor question. The governor recently asked the legislature for authority to remove a county officer who refused or failed to enforce the prohibition laws. This the legislature declined to do, and the state now has but one enforcement officer with no appropriation upon which to work. Frequent violations of the liquor laws have disgusted the people of Oklahoma with prohibition, and a re submission of the liquor question is expected to result in an overwhelming demand for the repeal of the law. STATE LIQUOR DEALERS START ACTIVE FIGHT AGAINST LIQUOR DIVES Milwaukee, Wis.—The Wisconsin State Liquor Dealers' Protective association has begun its fight to purge the saloons of Wisconsin of their evils, and to put the saloon business on a legitimate basis. Mr. John Koerner, vice president of the association, gave out this statement following the convention of the state association in Ashland, Wis., recently: "In the first place we want saloonkeepers put out of business who are unable to even read the license. We want every saloonkeeper to be able to understand and respect a license; not to consider it as a liberty. It is our intention of going into court and obtaining the names of saloonkeepers who sold the last drink in drunk and disorderly cases. For the first offense, the saloonkeeper will be warned, and if he allows it to happen again efforts will be made to have his license revoked. When Codfish Use Ballast. A Gloucester fisherman, one of the protestants again the fish clause in the Canadian Reciprocity bill, was talking about fish in Washington. "These balloonists and aeronauts," he said, "think they are very clever with their sand ballast, but by crinus, the codfish has been using sand ballast since before the flood." Whenever there's a terrible scarcity of cod, what few you do catch have sand in their stomach. Why? to weigh them, so that they can sink down to deep water where their friends are. Yes, sand-filled cod means scarce fish. It means that the cod for some reason or other are swimming deep, their stomachs ballasted with sand to keep them down."

Perhaps in no other Mne cf agricul: tural work has there veen such a lack of systematic study as in horse breed: ing. Farmers have simply bred and reared horses without any regard to the demand of the consumer. As a result the horse market has often been flooded and the prices been so low That the farmers have sold all their animals at a low price simply to get rid of them. In ten years horses have become scarce and hard to get at any price. Then a reaction took place and the farmers are once more breeding in the same old haphazard way and unless something is done to procure better sires and dams, history will re- peat itself. The heavy draft horse is one of the ‘most profitable classes of horses that a farmer can raise. In judging a draft horse there are six main heads that must be observed closely, namely, gen: eral appearance, head and neck, fore: quarters, body, hind-quarters and sex ual organs. These heads are cach sub- divided into several minor points which must bo observed and studied from all angles in a systematic way in order to be able to take advantage and pick out tne good and bad qual: ties of a draft horse. The general appearance is judged by standing away from the horse about twenty fect and looking at him trom both sides and both ends. Esti: mate in your own mind the weight and height, observe closely the general form and conformation. ‘This is the most important quality of a good draft horse. Sec that he is a broad, smooth, massive, symmetrical, square-bodied Andividual with all bony projections as haunch, stifles, shoulders, and around the eyes, well covered with flesh. ‘The skin must be mellow, hair smooth and fine. Every action of the horse must be observed with the utmost care ‘The stride must be regular, straight, long, elastic and fast. The trot straight, springy, free, and the feet must be well set on the ground While watching all the above quali ‘ttles, the temperament must be oly served closely. See the expression in the eyes, and the carriage of the ears, ‘which very often indicate the disposi. ition. The head and neck are two very im- portant points which must be careful Qy observed. The head must be clean cut, well carried, profile straight and fin proportion to the size of the body. The eyes are of much importance and should be examined with utmost care. Back the ‘horse under a dark or shady shed with head to the light ‘Place the hand over the eye and keer it dark for about thirty seconds. Then remove it and watch the expansion and contractions of the pupil which ‘designates a perfect sight. They must be of the same color and ellip- ‘tical in shape. A spherical eye indi- ates poor sight, or maybe blindness The forehead must be full and clean Examine the top of the head for any swellings or enlargements as “Poll Evil.” The ears must be medium in size, well carried forward and alert; Jaws clean, uniform, and straight. ‘The fore-quarters are a most impor. fant factor in a good draft horse, es: pecially the shoulders. They must be smoothly muscled, moderately sloping and extending well into the back. The arms are short and heavily muscled, while the forearm should be longer ee ee SEES POET.) SekD. SLRs), and from a side view should be wide, clean and well muscled. In viewing the knees from the front they should be wide and straight; from the side straight, deep, strong, clean and well supported. The cannons should be straéght and short, while the tendons running down the back should be large, clean, strong and well set back from the bone, making the side view wide and strong. The pasterns should be moderately sloping, clean and showing great strength. The feet should all be even in size; the horn thick and dense and not inclined to be brittle. The toes straight, not turned in or out; soles convex; bars strong; frogs large and elastic, and hecls wide and well supported, Particular attention should be paid to the body which possesses the with- ers, chest, ribs, back, loin and under line. The withers must be broad and muscled to the top; the chest deop and sides round; breastbone low and pos- sessing a large girth; the ribs well- sprung and run back to the haunch (commonly called hips); the back short, broad and well muscled; the loins short, wide and flat while the line under the belly should be long, moderately curved and flanks full and even, which denotes a good feeder. The hind-quarters possess more points than any of the others. The haunches should be broad, smooth and level; the croup moderately drooping, medium, long and heavily muscled; the tail attached high, well carried and straight; the thighs deep, short and heavily muscled; the quar- ter (between thighs) plump and full; stifles, clean, round, and well covered with flesh; gaskin (lower thighs), long, wide, smooth and clean; while the hocks viewed from in front should be wide, large and strong from the side, straight, not sickled, deep and smooth. The cannons should -be the same as in front, except they should be a little longer and wider, while the pasterns are a little more sloping and a trifle longer. The feet should correspond exactly in size, shape and constancy with the front. The confirmation of the draft mare or gelding is about the same as that for the stallion, with the exception that they are not so muscular in ap pearance, especially in the neck, with ers and other parts which denote mas- culinity. The neck is thinner, more delicately and cleaner cut; the ‘head, smaller and features finer. The with- ers are not so broad, but better de fined. She should not be so tall; not over sixteen hands high. Special stress should be paid to the feet and legs, as they are of great importance from a breeding, or market stand point. Vacations for Cattle. In western Australia one farmer may bo heard to inquire of another whether he has as yet sent his cattle on their vacation, and what is meant is just what is asked. Those farmers who lve anywhere near the coast— and in Australia “near’ might mean a distance that would startle dwellers in other lands—-send their cattle for ® month or six weeks’ holiday at the seashore each summer. The change of air and food is said to be extreme ly beneficial. The grass on the coast js impregnated with salt and has the effect of a tonic on the animals.— Harper's Weekly. for — twenty-cight Weare THE PIONEER PRESS Tkas been the icader In this Btate and‘Nation-for the grand and roble fight that is being waged for the amelioration of the condition of the Negro.
