Farrell --- SOUTHERN WHITE MAN SCORES COTTESVILLE Louisianan Writes An Open Letter To The Mayor ```markdown ``` Work of Negro Delights Thousands. In a few days the annual night parade of the Priests of Pallas will draw its thousands to Kansas City, and its tens of thousands to witness the glitter and glare the finery and splendor of the passing electric floats—the biggest feature of the carnival. The awe of the multitudes and the joy of the directors will heap praise upon Fawcett Robinson, the English creator, who conceives these beautiful floats in his mind and sketches their outline on paper. He has done it annually for the past fifteen years. But to the Negro boys whom he has trained in the practical work for the past thirteen years belongs the credit of petting his ideas into concrete objects, into the dazzling beauties that the crowds go wild over and mightily acclaim. At the den on East Tenth street, Kansas City, Mo., Ananias Beford, 1024 Oak street, a Negro head artist, has been for the past thirteen years the right hand man and chief designer in putting the ideas of this Englishman into tangible material and final form nott alone for the Priests of Pallas in Kansas City, but also for the Los Angeles, California flower "La Fiesta," and the Omaha, Nebr., "Aksarben," also at Mobile, Ala. Thomas and Junius Buford, his brothers and Henry Bigelow are his helpers who are also highly skilled in the work. Twenty white men work under the direction of these Negroes. This is a deserved honor. Give the Negro half a chance and he will make good. TAFT GREETS DR. VERNON. Dr. W. T. Vernon, special supervisor of schools under the interior department and former registrar of of the United States treasury, Adolph Griffin, manager and another member of THE PLAINDEALER staff took Major Arthur Brooks, President Taft's private man for a drive over the city. We returned to the station a few minutes ahead of the Presidential party, and when they arrived, the President mounted the rear platform of his car and spying Dr. Vernon in the crowd called out, "How are you Prof. Vernon" and at this time Mr. Hillis, the President's private secretary extended his hand over the guard rail of the observation platform and shaking the Kansan's hand warmly said, "I am glad to see you Dr. Vernon." He was ushered into the parlor of the President's private car and shook hands with President Taft and the entire party. As Dr. Vernon alighted from the platform he was given a warm reception amid a crowd of such leaders as Mulvane, Capper, Gov. Hoch, Senator Curtis, Congressman Scott and several others who grasped him warmly by the hand. When asked the occasion of his visit, Dr. Vernon said, "I just run back home to be with the boys and assist them in making the president's welcome to our state the most royal of his entire Western trip and we have done a mighty job."

In Mouth of the "City of Brotherly Love," Men, Women and Children Leave Church to Burn a man Why this Dastardly Act? The Man was a Negro! Taking interest in the recent Coatesville, Pa., outrage Louis J. Livingston, now in Dowagiac on business, writes an open letter as follows: AUGUST 16, 1911. SIR: I am a white man of pure Caucasian blood, with not a drop of Negro blood in all my ancestry. I am a Southerner by birth a native of Louisiana. In politics I am an Independent Republican and in every line of thought I am an independent and progressive. I am not in love with the Negro, but am in love with justice and humanity; and if the awful deed, the more than savage burning of the Negro. Walker, that has forever blackened the name of your city and left a stain which not even justice can blot out, is not followed by bringing to swift and merciless punishment the worse than hyenas, who somehow have acquired the semblance of human beings, then I ask God to call down upon them the punishment commensurate with such an awful deed, and to wipe from the face of the earth the community that would condone such superlative fiendishness, incarnate. Knowing to what a degraded level the police of our country—North, South, East or West, in rural communities as well as in the cities and towns—have fallen; that they form one of the principal sources and main abettors, instead of the preventers and curers of vice and crime; that almost universally their sole interest in their work is the accumulation of human misery and want, that they may feed and fatten upon it; that they have become a scourge, and not a protection, to most communities large or small, that they secretly encourage and connive at the breaking of the very laws they are specially selected to uphold; and that instead of bending every effort to the capture of criminals they expend that energy in the effort to make criminals of innocent men and women, who, without friends, money or influence, win their displeasure and fall into their power. until today the police of America are almost universally known as the most brutal, corrupt and depraved on earth. Knowing also, that the Negro, whatever his faults, is nearer to our Americanim by birth, her- itance, contact, environment, education and tradition than the scum of almost every nation and race on earth that are allowed to swarm through the gates of our Castle Gardens; that the Negro, since the shackles of slavery have been stricken from his limbs, has paid for that emancipation in full, not only by fighting the battles of his white persecutor with distinction and even glory, in the civil, Indian, Spanish and Philippine wars—one of his greatest deeds being the storming of San Juan hill and winning of the crucial land battle of the Spanish war—but by emancipating himself from ignorance, helplessness and poverty, and making himself a useful industrious and helpful citizen; and knowing that there is a certain element of many American communities, associated with those secret powers—hierarchical as well as political—that are secretly beading every energy to the destruction of American institutions and American spirit. Knowing these things I repeat and feeling that the statement given out as to the acts and the confession of Walker are one-sided and cannot now be consulted by the miserable victim of their awful savagery, and the meager fact in his favor that has been allowed to creep through the press censorship, that he killed the policeman in self-defense, I, as an old newspaper man and man of the world, and expert in the analysis and study of human actions,base my protest upon the well known facts given by me above. Next to the awful inhumanity of such fiendish deeds, my greatest objection is to their thorough un-Amerieunism. Back of them is a suggestion of clericalism, more even, than racialism, and I ask my countrymen to beware of the secret power that lies back of it all LODIS J. LIVINGSTON. COFFEYVILLE KANSAS.

A disease of the tomato that is some times confused with leaf spots is properly known as fusarium wilt. That this is not in the least affected by the applications of spraying materials to the plants is fully proved in the experiments carried on at the experiment station of the University of Illinois. This wilt has caused the loss of many a premising crop, and the first indication that the plants are affected is the sudden wilting of entire branches or even the entire plant. Within a few days the wilted portions become brown and dead, and an examination of the wilted stems reveals a discolored, brownish appearance of the wooded portion. The plants may die before any fruit has matured or after any part of the crop has been gathered. The first season that the will appears in a food usually only a few plants are affected but if the field is used for tomato the next year the attack is likely to be severe, for the disease is. died on the soil, and the length on the disease will remain in badly infested soil is not known. It is therefore important to practice rotation of crops so that the soil will not become badly infested Care should also be taken in securing soils for the beds in which the plants are grown. Fresh soil should be put in the beds each year, and it should be secured from a part of the farm which has never grown tomatoes nor received the wash from tomato fields. It is also important to avoid inoculating a new field by means of soil carried from an infected field on tools or the feet of men or farm animals. Whether prince or plebeian, rich or poor, saint or sinner, the queen upon her throne or the maiden in the dairy, all must depend upon a common source for food and raiment—agriculture. It was thus from the beginning, from the forbidden fruit in the garden of Eden to the soil product of 1911, from the time of the airy costume of Eve to the more pretentious apparel of her sisters of the present age. Obviously, then, as population increases and the food supply becomes a more vital question agriculture will command increasing attention and respect and the husbandman attain an importance among his fellows amounting almost to solitude. Jacob C. Mohler in Kansas Farmer. --- CROSSCUT SAW FOR ONE. Easily Made and a Great Convenience to Have on Any Farm. It is often convenient to have a crosscut saw that one man can use for cutting medium sized logs, says the Orange Judd Farmer. The one shown hergwith still the bill very well. It consists of a blade, a handle, set as shown, and a bow re-enforced with wire wound around it at various points. Preferably this bow should be of well seasoned hickory, ash or some other tough but not heavy wood. It is not necessary to have very much spring In the how, although some spring adds rigidity and tension to the saw, which can thus be run more easily. The most important points for the winding are toward the ends, where the pole is split by sawing to admit the blade. The pole should be only a few inches longer than the saw when laid out straight. Twisted Rope. If you will call rope to the left twice and then take the end and pass it down through the coil and then coll it on to the right coat will probably take the twist out. This is the method used by an accord which is handled and sold rope for a certain years. Orchard and Garden. Protect it with a tie up and burn all brush and drizzle on the ground. An orchard will give longer, bear better and be more profitable by being well cultivated and well fed. When planting do not work with bare hands. This will be sure if you do but on a pair of rubber gloves. A cover of quail in the orchard will prove a good friend to the grower, because they eat a tremendous number of insects. Very few years are at their best if allowed to ripen on the tree. A good rule is to pick when the seeds have turned brown. An orchard will rich in organic matter is the kind of soil we want; hence grow a cover of soil this fall and grow under next spring. Don't leave the calls on the ground so not that it is where many apple trees come from. Pick calls up and feed them to the logs or cows. The apple thrives well on a great variety of soils varying from sandy loam to loose soil provided it is well drained and otherwise well cared for. Fruit in the orchard largely depends upon the perfection of the fruits raised and the quantity. And the trees cannot produce their full capacity unless well cared for. Coffeyville Notes Mr. D. C.

Long Distance No. 34. Y With the completion early this fall of the Monroe street bridge, Spokane will have the longest single span reinforced concrete bridge in the world. The central span is 251 feet in length or twelve inches longer than the bridge over the Rocky river, under construction at Cleveland, O. and fifty eight feet longer than the famous Wissahickon river structure at Philadelphia. The bridge will have a roadway for teams and walks for pedestrians as well as tracks for the electric lines of the city. The city of Spokane is paying for the bridge, the cost of which is to be $270,000. The most important thing about the bridge is the fact that the principle employed in its construction, while old in theory, is new in practice. In this structure each segment of the archs was made separately and afterward keyed in, contrary to the usual custom of building the molds and then placing the entire amount of concrete in at once or as nearly at once as possible. Only enough steel was used to prevent surface cracking. By using as little steel as possible two things were accomplished—almost one third of the estimated cost, according to the usual manner of construction, was saved, and no built-in strain whatever was placed on the bridge before the concrete was firmly set. When the separate blocks were keyed in the trestlework was constructed so that even then no strain was placed on the setting concrete until perfectly dry. Golden West Dist. Co., Golden West Dist.

There are many who murmur and complain at the law of labor under which we live, without reflecting that obedience to it is not only in conformity with the Divine will, but also necessary for the development of intelligence, and for the thorough enjoyment of our common nature. Of all wretched men, surely the idle are the most so—those whose life is barren of utility, who have nothing to do except to gratify their senses. Are not such persons the most quenlous, miserable, and dissatisfied of all, constantly in a state of ennui, alike useless to themselves and to others—mere numberers of the earth, who, when removed, are missed by none, and whom none regret. Most wretched and ignoble lot, indeed, is the lot of the idlers. Who have helped the world on so much as the workers; men who have had to work from necessity or from choice? All that we call progress--civilization, wellbeing, and prosperity--depends upon industry diligently applied. All useful and beautiful thoughts, in like manner, are the issue of laboa, of study, of observation, of research, of diligent elaboration. The noblest poem cannot be elaborated, and send down its undying strains into the future, without steady and painstaking labor. No great work has ever been done hastily and without due deliberation. It is the result of redeated efforts, and often of many failures. One generation begins, and another continues—the present cooperating with the pastj Thus, the Parthenon began with a mud hut; the "Last Judgment" with a few scratches on the sand. It is the same individuals of the race; thep begin with abortine efforts, which, by means of perseverance, lead to successful issues. The history of industry is uniform in the character of its illustrations. Industry enables the pebriest man to achieve honor, if not distinction. The greatest names in the history of art, literature and science are those of laboring men. A working instrumentmaker gave us the steam-engine; a barber, the spinning-machine; a weaver, the mule; a pitman perfected the locomotive; and workingmen of all grades have, one after another, added to the triumphs of mechanical skill. It would seem then, that in the face of all these achievements which have been merely the outcome of labor, that the Negro race would concern itself with the things that have brought success to the doors of other races, instead of building so many air castles. Too many of our people after having obtained a fairly good education, are too willing to come home from school to sit down or live off of their wits; this is to be deplored, for while some must turn their attention to the professions, the great rank and file of the Negro race must turn their attention to labor, for the time at least. We cannot hope for many easy places until we begin to provide more of our own; other races are too busy concerned with their own, to provide sinecures for the Negro. Let the Negro learn to contribute more to his own enterprises, and then there will eventually be a change for the better. I have said, we must support Negro enterprises; we encounter we can buy from a Negro store, from a Negro farmer, or get a Negro newspaper, dit it, and pay the Negro for whatever he has to sell, the same as you would any other man, because there are few of us but what know that money is very essential in the business world Habit is second to nature, and a thing very easily acquired; it is just as easy to get the habit of paying Negro merchants for their goods, as to get into their debt and then refuse to pay them, and transfer your patronage to someone else. This is a weakness that many Negroes have to overcome; they must learn that members of their race cannot attain to any great degree of success, unless they have the financial support that is necessary to carry forward, and maintain their business institutions as other people who have worked up to a substantial footing in the commercial world. The hearty support that we should and could, give to race enterprises, would contribute largely to our success, but there are other things that go hand in hand with business and prosperity. Too often when the Negro become prosperous, he forgets, that in such a measure as he prospers, that the standard of integrity should be raised if success is to be permanent. Wherever one man has been successful, he shouldnot feel that this success has been given him to misuse, but he ought to be honest and truthful, and be an example to those around him. Too many are in the habit of covering up the wrongs of others just because they are all Negroes. It is the duty of every citizen to point out the wrong as he sees it; no church, no organization, of any description, has any right to support any person in dishonesty, because they are members of their bodies. The organization that follows up such a policy is mighty dangerous to society and should be invalidated by all means. Labor is not only a necessity, but it is also a pleasure. What would otherwise be a curse by the constitution of our physical system becomes a blessing. Our lives are a conflict with nature in some respects, but it is also a co-operation with nature in others. The sun, the air and the earth are constantly abstracting from us our vital forces Hence, we eat and drink for nourishment and clothe ourselves for warmth. Nature works with us. She provides the earth which we furrow: She grows and ripens the seeds we sow and gather. She furnishes, with the help of human labor, the wool that we spin and the food we eat. And it ought never to be forgotten that, however rich or poor we may be, all that we at, all that we are clothed with, all that shelters us, from the palace to the cottage, is the result of labor. Men co operate with each other for the mutual sustenance of all. The husbandsman tills the ground and provides food; the manufacturer waeves tissue, which the tailor and seamstress make into clothes; the bricklayer build the houses in which we enjoy household life. Numbers of workmen thus contribute and help create the general result. Labor and skill applied to the vulgarest things invest them at once with precious value. Labor is indeed the life of humanity; take it away, banish it and the whole human race were at once stricken with death "He that will not work," said St. Paul, "neither shall he eat;" and the apostle glorified himself in that he had labored with his own hands, and had not change able to any man.

There is no office in the gott of the people of Kansas that carries with it as much responsibility as that of state treasurer and in doing so a man for this important position the people should exercise the greatest care. The calls upon the state treasurer are numerous and it requires a man of great executive ability and sound business judgment to look after these many calls and keep the state on the safe side of the ledger. It requires a c'ein, honest, uprightman; one who has made a success of his personal affairs and is willing to devote the same care and energy in transacting business for the people Being ever mindful of these facts, the people of Kansas have an eye on Mr. Walter L. Payne, an assistant in the state treasurer's office, and if straws tell which way the wind is blowing, Mr. Payne will be the next state treasurer. If he measures up full and round to every requirement and is thoroughly acquainted with every detail of the office. Mr. Payne is a chip off the old block and comes from a long line of noble ancestry. His father was one of the old boys that offered his life in the bloodiest war ever fought that all might enjoy freedom and the pursuit of happiness in our own way. Walter L. Payne is a native Kansasan, having been born and reared on a farm in Douglas county. After leaving the farm, he engaged in the mercantile business. In 1800 he was appointed deputy county clerk of Douglas county, resigning in 1800 to accept the position of chief clerk in the state treasury. He held this place for two and a half years, when he was promoted to be special assistant treasurer, which position he still holds. Mr. Payne will be the next candidate for state treasurer on the Republican ticket. He will be the first native Kansasan to ask for that office.

FOR THE CHILDREN FOR THE CHILDREN The Fox and the Crow. Some time ago a crow who found A piece of cheese on the ground Perched high on a pile boiling beech And held the rattle well out of reach. A old fox who waited her flight Remarked "That what is my appetite" He winked his eye and ate it his head, And then to Mistress Crow we said, "My dear, you are a kindome bird Your voice is very sweet, I love it Your body so rich and fear, Is just to this, I long to hear I love it too, I long to hear And one with which we can compare. So let me hear you play. For I am feeling blue today. The crow when he lay it "Hold me Began to cry," with good cheer. The choice of some lamp I down below The fox to find it The Game of Qualls A good game to play on the lawn at this season of the year is quilts. A quilt is a tuffish ting of fawn, generally from eight and one fourth to nine and one half inches in width, dameter and batten on one and two inches in breadth. It is conveys on the upper side and slightly concave on the under, so that the outer edge curves down and is sharp enough to stick into the ground. The mode of playing is as follows: Two plus, called "hob," are driven into the ground from eighteen to twenty four its apart, and the players, who are aided into two parties, stand at one "hob" and in regular succession throw their quilts (of which each player has two) near to the other "hob" as they can. The points are counted as in bowls or in curling. To facilitate the sticking of the quilts at the point where they strike the ground a "day"—that is, a flat circle of clay about one or two inches in thickness and one and one half feet in radius—is placed around each "hob." This requires to be kept moist and should have sawdust sprinkled over it. The quolt when it is thrown is grasped with the right hand by one side and pitched with an upward and forward jerk of the hand and arm, which gives it a whirling motion and causes it to strike the ground with its edge.—Philadelphia Ledger. Monkey Bell Ringers. The monkey cage broke in the Pittsburg zoo, and eight monkeys escaped. They had a riotous vacation, but it did not last long. They hopped away from their cage and took the overland route so that nobody might catch them. All night they remained quiet and peaceful somewhere or other, and no one could imagine what had become of them. In the morning the mystery was clear. Everybody knew where they were. They were in the bellyfish of the church near the zoo. There are bells in the steeple, and the monkeys were ringing them, swinging from one rope to another and making believe that they were in their old original forest. They kept up the ringing of the bells until the fire duck came with ladder and climber to get them. A Seattle family have a yellow dog with a singular love for flowers, which frequently gets him into trouble. The dog, after making sure that the coast is clear, will go into the garden and pluck a number of flowers and, placing them in a heap, will lie down and go to sleep with his nose in the lunch. His favorite flower is the rose, and he invariably bites the stem four or five inches below, so as not to injure the flower. All his actions indicate that he enjoys the perfume of the flowers, and it rarely happens that he is not seen with some choice flower in his mouth. The only trouble is that he culls from every garden that he sees and in consequence has narrowly escaped being shot for his nosthetic taste—Grit. Do you know how to play "cheese it?" It is popular on the playgrounds because any number of boys can enter the contest. One has to "go it," and he takes the stick and stands with his back to the others, who are grouped at the far end of the yard. The boy with the stick thumps it upon the ground three times and then suddenly turns around to look at the others. If he can see any one moving forward he names him and sends him back to the starting point. It is the object of the players to dash forward quickly while the catcher is not looking and to remain still when he turns around—Philadelphia Record When you are inclined not to mind mother or teacher turn to your beloved "Jungle Book" and read. Now, there are the laws of the jungle, and mary and mighty are they. But the head and the hoof of the law And the hunch and the hump is obey. Obedience is the first law of nature and extends to all living things. Some children think they must obey their parents just because the parents say so, but that is not the reason. They must obey when they are young so that they may learn self control and help to build character for themselves. Sandwiches. If you are giving a birthday or porch party you may make your sandwiches very tempting by using fancy biscuits cutters to make them round or heart shaped. --- FARM FAIRS TRAIN CHILDREN. Teach Them That Agriculture Is a Study of What's to Be Paid. Is a farmer a business man? If so, he can make no better investment than to take his family to the state fair. By so doing he will cost bread upon the waters. The profits will be dollars and sense. The blessing will be better boys, better girls better farms. Every boy and every girl has a right to have a good time while young. Make the child happy and you have done much to make it good. The neglected and unhappy child too oft becomes the trump and the agagand. The state fair is the crossroads of well directed effort, the shows of brawn and brain, the seasons and story, the upstairs of human endeavor, the home of the topnotcher, the notetaker of the temple of antithesis and preservation, the epilogue and mayors of experience and experience, the arena where Greek masters of the battle of the breeds, the gold upon which the victoria of peace won, the home-stretch of genius and invention, the repository of industrial products, the place where exhibitors learn the joys of victory and the grace of defeat, the pendulum which moves the hands on the clock of progress, the guideboard pointing the way to better methods and better things, a concluding argument for higher ideals, the name of the newest and the best, the high priest of civilization and Christian living. When the boy learns that father will take him to this great exposition the world will at once seem brighter to both father and son. Hand work will not seem so much like drudgery. The boy will sing and whistle and his heart be glad from morn till night. The old form will have a charm it never had before. More sunshine in the home and a hundred smiles for every frown. —A. P. Sandles, in Official Bulletin Ohio Department of Agriculture. GIVE STOCK PURE WATER. Cheap and Easy Way to Keep Them as Comfortable as Humans. One of the greatest difficulties that confronts the stock raiseer during dry summer weather is that of keeping pure water for the stock. The figure below is an illustration of a method used in western states. Bury an old zinc tank or some other construction that will hold at least fifty gallons of water. In this place a large size water barrel, bore some three or four holes in the bottom end of this just below the top of the outside tank, in these holes place an iron tube as much as an inch in diameter and the inclusion tank will always be full of water, and in no waste. Two eggs out of every do- laid by American hens may be said to drop through holes in the farmer's basket before they reach a market. In other words, while the hen sees to it that every egg she lays is worth taking care of, the farmer takes proper care of only ten. The aggregate loss from this cause reaches over $1,000,000 annually. Nearly all those eggs may be saved by a batter arrangement of poultry houses, a batter system in collecting eggs and by co-operation in quick marketing. ] Wait till spring to make a start in beekeeping. It is surprising what an influence the winter has over the clover flow for the following spring, and where the heavy snows prevail it is generally a good omen for a heavy clover flow. If you are fired of the flimsy bottom boards that are sent out by a number of manufacturers that hardy last long enough to pay for the pallet they take, or if you have had mishaps with them in moving bees, etc., here is your remedy. Order all your bottom boards made out of seven eighths inch lumber. The real way to furnish a good market for honey is to produce the very best article and make people believe it. Honey is often sold at 15, 10, 18 and 20 cents right in a community where much honey is selling for 10 cents simple) because buyers knew that the honey they were buying the higher price for was all right. Give your bees a chance to use their wings all year round. When cold weather comes on pack straw or leaves under the hives and also around them, being careful to leave a way open to the hive door. When the temperature gets to 45 degrees the bees will fly and get back to their hives as soon as a wind comes up. Being wintered out of doors they get the benefit of several winter flights, cleansing flights, which are very beneficial. Your packing is around them in the spring and you won't need to unpack them until the cold weather has passed by, and they will get along more rapidly than in the cellar.

HARRY NELSON ATWOOD of Boston, twenty-seven years old, has been crowned king of all aviators because of his wonderful achievements in the art of aviation. His success is the more remarkable from the fact that it was only on last Memorial day that he made his initial flight. His record of four months not only does credit to the young man, but opens amazing possibilities to the imagination. On June 30 he made a flight from Boston to New London, Coun., carrying his mechanician as a passenger. The next day he new to New York. On July 3 he new to Atlantic City on his way to Washington, arriving at the latter city on July 13. On Aug 14 he started from St. Louis and arrived at New York on Aug. 25. With these laurels Atwood may conclude to retire from the flying game. He realizes that the art has not yet been perfected to the point of safety to aviators and admits that he is seriously considering quitting before he "gets his." In the illustration Atwood is shown flying down the Hudson river and again just as he landed at Governors island.

We do not know its origin, but it defines its name from an ancient province in the southwestern part of Scotland. The earliest histories of Scotland make mention of a breed of black polled cattle, and the excellent quality of the beef the breed produces became known to the English butchers centuries ago. In the early part of the present century thousands of head of Galloway cattle annually were driven from southwestern Scotland to the luxurant pastures of southern England, where they were fitted for the London market. Galloway beef is well marbled, has an excellent flavor, and there is very little waste to the carcass. That is why Galloways always sell at the highest market prices The early breeders in the Galloway county of Scotland gave their attention to producing high class meat for the market. Although no attention was given to exploiting the merits of the Galloway in other sections of Great Britain, the breed was improved by the systematic mating of the best specimens of each set. The climate of southwestern Scotland is moist and mild, and the cattle are allowed to run in the open the year round. Centuries of outdoor life have made the Galloway the hardest of all breeds of cattle. Of the hundreds of head of Galloway cattle selected in Scotland for importation to America scarcely one has failed to pass the government tent for tuberculosis. The characteristic coat of hair of the Galloway also is due to centuries of outdoor life. In many respects the Galloway robe is far superior to that of the buffalo. There is a soft, thick, mossy undercoat of hair covered by an outer coat of longer hair which protects the animal from the severities of climate. The most desirable color is a dark ma- ```markdown ``` The four leading beef breeds of cattle rank as to size in the following order: Shorthorns, Herefords, Aberdeen - Angus and Galloways. This does not indicate, however, that the smaller breeds are the least profitable. Early maturity is an important factor in economical beef production, and the tables show that the smaller breeds approach maturity more rapidly than the larger breeds. The Galloway consumes less feed than the Shorthorn, and the cost of producing 100 pounds of gain is practically the same for both. Galloways are compactly built, and their weight is sometimes deceptive to those not familiar with the breed. Their condition is often astonishing when compared with their pastures, and their weight is no less so when compared with the apparent bulk of the animal. The Galloway bull shown was a prize winner at one of the fall shows. doggy brown. Many of the calves with their first coats of hair are almost red in color. Galloways were first imported into the United States in the early eighties. They proved to be great rushters on the range and soon became popular with ranchmen. Although ranching practically is a thing of the past, the rustling characteristics of the breed make it an economical producer of beef. On the cheap grazing kinds of the west Galloways, by nature adapted to make such excellent use of the cheaper and coarser feeds that go to waste on every farm, are superior to all other breeds in producing beef economically. It is pre-eminently a farmer's breed, and it merits the important position it has attained in the field of beef production. Study the Sale. If all that is claimed for the silo is true then it is one of the most important and valuable buildings on the farm, says the Kansas farmer. If only one-half of it is true it is well worth investigating. Now is the time to investigate, before the spring work begins. Study the silo question from all points of view and see if the actual saving of nearly one-half the corn crop that you have worked to produce is not worth while. See if the convenience in feeding this corn crop which is afforded by the silo is not worth while. See if the giving of a succulent ration which is greedily eaten by the stock during the dry spells of summer and the winter season does not pay. Note how the milk slow is kept up by the covers and how easy it is to fatten a lot of baby beef with silage and alfalfa. Then note the economy of it all and see if you don't need a silo. Feeding Floor For Heap. A good floor for feeding market corn will pay for itself in a very short time. The bulk of the corn fed is fed on the ear or shelled, and in rainy weather the hog usually is compelled to eat more or less dirt with the corn, and in dry weather dust will necessarily be eaten. With a good feeding floor the grain may be fed with no waste, whether wet or dry. Cement concrete is probably the best material to use for fatis purpose, and a floor of this kind will last a lifetime. BOOKSHELF FOR MOTHER. Any Boy Handy at Carpentering Can Do It and With No Christmas Do it and Wait For Christmas. In almost every household there is some one who is handy with tools, rays the American Agriculturist. To prove its assertion it prints the following story by James B. Duncan and a picture that shows the result of palmstaking effort. A bookcase large enough to hold 100 books is an adornment to any household, and the youngster who is clever enough to gather in some nice bits of pine wood and then tackle the tool box in the barn will be sure to have something extra from mother in his Christmas stocking. Here are the rules to follow: In the use of all edge tools, if you would avoid cracks and splitting, be patient and do not attempt to remove wood too rapidly, although the tools should be always kept with perfectly sharp edges. There is much marking out to do, and as this must be accurately done a good sharp pencil should always be at hand. In sandpapering it is best to wrap the paper around a block, as the result is more uniform than when the paper is supported by the hand alone. The three shelves, which are identical in every particular, should be smoothly finished, giving particular attention to the ends, as these are visible through the side strips. In order to fit around the four corners of the uprights, the four corners of these must be notched out. These uprights, after having been cut to length, smoothly finished and the corners rubbed down very lightly with sandpaper, should have the location of the shelves marked on them and then have the holes bored for the screws. From half inch wood cut out four brackets of such a length as to fit closely between the two uprights of each end. Six little side strips, measuring one-fourth by one inch, are required, which should be flat on top and pointed at their ends. In assembling make a hole in the corner of each shelf and carefully try END FRONT MAN OF THE SHELTER. A PRESENT ANY BOY CAN MAKE FOR NOTHING. A PRESENT ANY BOY CAN MAKE FOR MOTHER the screws so as to make sure that they will not split the shelf when driven home. Place the brackets in position and secure them by glue and a small wire nail at two of the corners. In attaching the side stops use nuts with large ornamental heads in the desired finish. To conceal the heads of the screws in front similar nuts should be driven in as close to the screws as possible and directly above them. If preferred wooden buttons may be set over the head of each screw and held by means of glue. In order to hang these shelves a small hole should be bored in the upper ends of each of the back uprights. These shelves require the following pieces of dressed lumber: The shelves, three pieces 1 by 9½ by 3½"; back uprights, two pieces 1 by 2 by 35"; front uprights, two pieces 1 by 2 by 2¼"; side strips, six pieces 1 by 1 by 2½. Poultry Pickings. Eggs should be graded and the small and ill shaped used for cooking purposes. None but the brightest and best should be placed upon the market or used for incubation. Pigeons are becoming more popular and game birds are getting scarce. Pigeons require very little attention when preparations are made for them. Squab raising is profitable when followed intelligently. Why not try a few pigeons? Great care is necessary in collecting eggs intended for incubation. The poultry man should always know the parents of the offspring, and for this reason a nest should be kept of both hens and crows. This is the only way to keep good eggs. Beginning of it, they keeping tend to overfeed their chickens during the winter—too much grain and too little animal food and green food. Powers require each of these three kinds of food all the year round in order to keep in vigorous health, and if they are overfed or underfed with either one there is apt to be a loss in vitality that show itself in diminished egg production. LIVE STOCK GOOD DIPPING VAT FOR SHEEP Every Farmer With Flock of Twenty five Animals Should Possess One—Concrete Is Cheap. A farmer owning as many as twenty-five sheep should have a good dipping vat. These may be made of wood, metal or concrete. For a smaller number of sheep than twenty five, the barrel used to scald the pigs will do if the farmer feels that he cannot afford to purchase or build a vat. A good galvanized vat ten feet long and four feet deep made purposely for dipping can be purchased for about $12. There are smaller sizes than this that can be purchased for less money. Concrete vats can be built at a normal cost. Three or four farmers can club together and purchase one of the galvanized tanks and haul it to their respective farms as it is wanted. A dipping vat for sheep should be narrow enough to prevent the sheep turning around in it, and deep enough to swim large sheep. The length of the vat should depend upon the number of sheep a man keeps on his place, as the longer the vat the greater the number of sheep which can be dipped in a day. There is considerable variation as to the A Dipping Vat. width of vats found on different farms and as a usual thing they are wider than necessary. Then, too, the narrower the vat the less the dip required to fill it. A vat 20 inches wide at the top and 5 inches wide at the bottom is a fair average as regards width, although some very practical sheep men construct their vats as narrow as 16 inches at the top and 6 inches at the bottom when the vat is 4 feet deep. The size of sheep kept on a farm must, of course, be taken into consideration. The dipping vat illustrated is located in the driveway of the hog house, and can be used for the dipping of sheep and young pigs. It is built entirely of concrete, the walls of which are 6 inches in width with the exception of the partition between the vat and dry chamber, which has a thickness of 9 inches. The end of the vat into which the hogs and sheep are plunged is perpendicular while the opposite end is provided with an incline which is quite deeply creased to that the animal can walk out. The floor around the end of the vat from which the sheep emerge is so graded that all drippings return to the vat. There are sewer connections with this outfit, the valve of which is located in the dry chamber. The end of the sewer pipe in the vat is provided with a grate and trap so as to catch bits of wool and droppings which would otherwise clog the pipe. MAKING A HOG-TIGHT FENCE Brick or Stone Sunk in Ground With Piece of Wire Attached Will Prove Effective. I have had no little amount of trouble fencing against hogs, for stretch the fence as tightly as I could, some old sow or pig would eventually press the wire up between the posts and let the whole bunch out, says a writer in the Farm and Home. A year ago I tried the following device for keeping my hogs from lifting the fence: Take a brick or small stone for a weight and a piece of No. 9 wire long enough to fasten around the weight with three feet extending, and sink the weight two and a half feet in the ```markdown ``` Hog-Tight Fence. ground directly under the bottom wire and half way between the posts Tamp the earth firmly over the weight and then bring the bottom wire of the fence down closely to the ground and fasten it to the wire that is on the weight. This holds the fence down firmly to the ground and there is no hog that can raise it up. French Horse Breeders. Every year France spends $4,846,000 to encourage horse breeders to make him the quality of their horses. CORNSTALK DISEASE. Look Out For Your Cattle if You Let Them Run In Fields. When cattle are allowed to run in stalk fields it frequently happens that a large per cent die from various causes. All these troubles are classed under the one term-cornstalk disease. In some western fields where there is a second growth of cane stalk late in the fall an early frost will at times develop in the stalk a deadly poison hydrocyanic acid, which kills the animal in a very few minutes after eating it, says the Kansas Agricultural college. In the last year or two some of our state experiment stations have been investigating several molds which seem to affect not only cattle, but horses as well. These molds grow quite abundantly upon cornstalks, alfalfa and other forage crops. The death of a great number of animals has been traced directly to the feeding of such affected fodder, hay or corn. These molds, however, must have a certain amount of moisture for their growth, and it has been shown that when the feeds have been properly harvested and sheltered no trouble has resulted. Only in materials exposed to the weather, allowing the development of these lower forms of plant life, has serious trouble been found. In the treatment of these troubles nothing reliable can be given, as disease usually comes on without any warning, and the animal dies suddenly. Much of the trouble can be avoided by allowing the animals only a limited amount of the feed or in the stalk field a few hours only each day. It is necessary that plenty of pure water should be given frequently and enough of other roughage to keep the animals from gorging themselves on the fodder. HOW TO SAVE PIG FOOD. Easy Way to Prevent Waste and Also to Keep the Sheats Clean. Many a time will the plg spill his food all over the ground. He can be stopped by making a trough similar to the one shown in the drawing. Place an ordinary trough right in front of the gate. Take the gate off its hinges and swing from a rod at the top, so as to swing over the top of the trough. FOOD PROTECTING TROUGH. When pouring the swirl into the trough the gate is swung inward and held in place by the fastener shown. When the trough is full the gate is swung back and fastened. The trough itself is made of heavy material and securely fastened by a stake at each end, which also prevents the hog from getting into the end when the gate is swung open. Beil Bones Straight. The best way to soften hay carrier ropes is to boll them in wood ashes. This is a formula forty years old that has never been known to fail. Put one-fourth to one half bushel in enough water to cover rope, say six to ten pallfuls, according to the size of your kettle. Boll it until you are sure that it is thoroughly wet through, hang it up to dry and leave it alone until perfectly dry. Then you will have a rope as soft and pliable as a tow string and one that will give double the service in wear as one untreated. It will pay any one to try the experiment. MAKE HENS PRODUCERS. The fowls belonging to the average farmer weigh from three to four pounds. They should weigh from six to eight pounds. The average hen lays seventy-five eggs a year. She should lay 150 eggs a year. These gales can be made by careful selection and breeding. Do not kill the laying hen. Weed out the nonproducers. Live Stock Notes. Enallage may be fed to sheep, but roots are better and safer. Every quadruped on the place earns his salt, but does it always get it? The best way to be sure of healthy sheep is to give them good feed and the best care you can. Pick out the best lamb in the stock to keep or else buy one of some successful breeder of sheep. Because sheep have warm coats it does not follow that they can be exposed to wet and storms. The colt should early be taught the use of the halter and made to know that his master is his friend. The minutes work with a rough cloth on the horse's hide after a hard day's work will do him a lot of good. What we want to do in working a horse for the first time is to teach it to do things which it never did before. The stock should have salt constantly before it in the pasture, so the sheep can help themselves to it when they crave it. Salt is one of the essentials of success in handling sheep. It is scarcely necessary to suggest that it is good policy to make a close examination of any newly purchased hogs and be assured that they are absolutely free from lice before they are turned with the other hogs.

Probably St. John's A. M. E. church of Kansas City, Kansas, has not for some time been taxed by such a large concourse of people as assembled on Sunday, Sept. 24th inst., at 2 p.m., the hour appointed for the funeral ceremonies over the remains of Ihos. Nathaniel Collins The services were solemn and impressive. Dr. O. E. Jones in his scholarly, logical and sympathetic way, delivered the funeral oration, whilst e'oquent and pathetic eulogies were delivered by D. T. Vernon, ex-registrar U S treasury, and Prof. E. J. Hawkins, supervisor colored schools of Ft Scott. Both eulogias were filled with such sentiments as only a fellow associate can feel for another. The music rendered added much to the solennity of the occasion and specially the quartette number "Some Sweet Day" and the sol. "Holy City". The casket and rostrum were one mass of beautiful floral designs, the parting tributes of his many many friends, who were present to view and follow his mortal remains to their last testing place. Thomas Nathaniel Collins the youngest son of Rev. and Mrs M. Collins, first saw the light of day March 24, 1877, in the city of Sedalia, Mo. He departed this life at Kansas City, Kansas, on Thursday at 3 a.m., being at the time of his death 34 years, 5 months, 27 days old. When about five years of age his parents moved to Kansas and it was here he received his education having attended the public schools at Garnet, Paola, Kansas City, Hiawatha, Lincoln, Neb., Leavenworth and Ft. Scott. He graduated from the Kansas City High school in the class of 1896. He began teaching the following year and taught for several years in Kansas and Missouri, teaching at the following places, Shawnee, Olathe, Holliday, Argentine; and in Parkville, Mo. On account of failing health he abandoned the teaching profession several yeas ago and has been devoting his attention to tonsorial business. Thomas was blessed with an exceptionally bright intellect and was a splendid orator. He admired the oratorical ability of Dr Vernon and they were great friends. It was his desire that Dr Vernon speak at his funeral. For many years he was an active member of the Interstate Literary association, and had acted on various committees and held a number of offices in that body. For many years he was an active and financial member of Gedar Beam lodge No. 23, of Olathe. Thomas Collins had been in poor health for several years, but kept at his work. He had been conned to his bed less than a week when he died. Last Wednesday he was operated on about 3 p.m. At 12:30 a.m., Thursday he ssked for his Aunt Mary. The nurse, Miss Garrett replied, "She is asleep, do you want her?" He replied, "No, let her sleep." At 1:30 a.m. he ewoke, looked up and reached out his hand. "What do you want, Mr Collins?" Do you want anything? asked the nurse. "No," he said, "I saw a hand reaching out and I was going to, put my hand in his hand." He went back to sleep, the sleep that knows no waking. He leaves a mother, father, brother and numerous relatives and friends to mourn his loss. THE OLD RELIABLE Mme.

May Adorn Cow, but Often Lead 16 Barious Damage. Since Fletertje Maid Ormsby made the great record that won first place in the thirty day division and had best picture so widely published many letters have come to me in regard to her, says Superintendent M. H. Gardiner of the Holstein Registry at Delran, Wis., in a letter to the American Cultivator. Several breeders show curiosity as to her lack of horns, one or two commanding unfavorably. As an individual proposition a neat pair of short, nicely curved waxy horns on a cow's head may be something to be admitted. As a general proposition the cow of today has no need of such weapons, and if she has them will surely use them on her mates in the head and cause more or less loss to the owner. Ages ago when the ancestors of Fletertje Maid Ormsby ran half wild in the forests of Europe it was necessary for the cow to protect her calf from the deprudations of wolves and other beasts of prey, and the horns which nature had provided for that purpose were a necessity. But such conditions no longer exist, and our breeders may well ask themselves as to what useful purpose can be served by horns on the head of a cow. Pictertje Mauld Ormsby never had any horns because their growth was prevented. When a cull of about three weeks old, as soon as slight swellings showed where the horns were to lie, she was held on her side and the hair closely clipped from both swellings. Then the swellings were moistened with water and carefully rubbed with a stick of caustic potash, and the work was done with absolutely no pain to the little animal. LIME WET LANDS IN FALL. Caustic Forms Are Best and Cheapest if Spread When Finely Powdered. It Spread When Finally Powdered. The period of late July and August affords the last time for the drainage of many wet areas of land which are so saturated that they are filled with water at other seasons, says Professor I. O. Ippin of the New York State College of Agriculture. Particularly is it desirable to drain heavy clay land at this season in order that the soil which is thrown out may have an opportunity to thoroughly dry before being returned to its position over the tile. This period of slack work is also worth considering for the drainage of those other wet areas on the farm which show themselves in the field by the dwarfed crop and the distress which it suffers during these dry periods. Those places which suffer most from drought are often the same areas which have had an excess of water in the early spring. The application of lime on old meadows and upon other land which is to be plowed for a crop next spring should now be considered. Caustic forms of lime which are generally most economical in this state are best applied in the fall, provided they are distributed in the finely powdered form. Full applications followed by late fall or early spring plowing are preferable. POST LIFTER THAT LIFTS. Costs Practically Nothing, but No Patent Device Can Beat It. Take an old solid cornplanter wheel and set it as closely against the post as the chain will allow. Put a hook, A, on the end of the main chain, using a shorter chain to go around the post just at the top of the ground. Hitch a horse at it, with a long singletree. This is the best post lifter ever and can be rigged up in the shortest time. The upward pull on the post may be increased by placing a triangular block in front of wheel. A SEED CORN OBSERVATION. A Michigan farmer vouches for this method of improving his corn. He says, "I always choose the top ear from a stalk bearing two or more ears and after doing so for the third or fourth time I have been successful in growing four to six ears on at least half the stalks in the field." Oats are the best single grain food for a horse and the best for road purposes. A good colt breed for a purpose, and fed and trained for a purpose, is never a drug on the market. Pure food, plenty of air and regular exercise are best for the mother horse. But don't overdo the work. The individuality of each horse should be studied and the foods supplied to most individual requirements. Don't shut up a little colt in a dingy place by himself. Give him companionship. A colt will do if there are no other colts on the farm. If the lawn is weedy and the grass does not seem to make a good growth apply nitrate of soila at the rate of 150 to 200 pounds per acre. Scatter broadcast just before a rain or before watering. Nitrate of soila may be used on spinach and other leaf crops to advantage. LN e Ret Te OT eee te co ETT aN!

A dipping vat for sheep shoud be narrow enough to prevent the abeep turning around in it, and deep enough to swim large sheep.
