THE TOPEKA PLAINDEALER KANSAS DEMOCRATS ELECT A NEGRO COUNTY ATTORNEY! Fourteenth Year. No. 47. Prepare Your KANSAS DEMOCRATS NEGRO CO Mon. W. L. Sayers, One of the State's Brightest Lawyers Lands a High Office----The Democrats Nominated and Stood by Him. We are glad to note the fact and the colored people should be very grateful to know that some of the good things that are passing around to the Democrats are also also passing into the hands of colored people. We can rejoice over the election of a prominent colored lawyer, Hon. W. L. Sayers, to the office of County Attorney of Graham County, one of the most prominent lawyers of that county as well as of the whole western portion of this state. He was elected on the Democratic ticket with a majority of 324. Mr. Crank, the white Republican candidate, received a total of 564 votes, Mr. Clack, the Socialist candidate, 119 and Mr. Sayers, the colored Democratic candidate 888, carrying 11 of the 13 townships of the county. It is true that this county has a large colored population, but the white population is far in the majority. Mr. Sayers even had the support of some of the old moss-back Democrats of the Southern states. This shows that the Democrats are having a change of hearts as well as thought and we cannot help but feel proud over this honored position given a member of our race. If the Democrats would only put the brakes on some of the hot-headed members of their party in the South and give the hard-working, progressive colored citizen an even break, the colored people would vote the Democratic ticket as well as any of the rest. We wish Mr. Sayers well and hope he will use his influence with the President-elect, Mr. Wilson, in such a way as to cause him to give his colored brethren an even break for existence. CURIOUS RESULTS OF ELECTION FIGURES! There are some curious results in the figures on the recent election, and no wonder there is no much of a mixup in the count. The four presidential candidates received the largest vote polled, getting 365,444. The senatorial candidates received a total of 350.021; the candidates for governor, 359,853, and the candidates for secretary of state, 336,848. The biggest difference in the votes cast was between the presidential candidates and secretary of state, which is 28,596; the next largest being between the senatorial candidates and the presidential, which is 15,423. The difference between the candidates for governor and the the presidency is only 5,591. From these results many deductions can be extracted and one is that many people who voted for Roosevelt electors did not for Stubbs, the Bull Moose leader in Kansas, who once said the prairies were on fire for the Teddymoose and the progresso-pop ideas of Stubbs, et al. NED O'BANION MAKING GOOD Hon. Neq O'Banion, of Colorado Springs, Colo., is spending the week in the city, the guest of Mr. and Mrs. Nick Chiles. Mr. O'Banion resided in Topeka for several years and was an attache at the state house under the regime of Gov. Ed. Hoch, and his legend of friends among both races are vicing with each other to make his sojourn one of pleasure. He is a native son, having first saw the light of day at Clay Center, where he received the thirty-third and last degree in the "Grand United Order of Hard Knocks" and a bieral education in the public schools of his town. Thus fitted to fight life's rugged battles, he launched his craft upon the sea of fortune, and has ever made good since the day he took his place in bread winners who are battling for an humble position at or near the top that they may earn a comfortable livelihood for them and theirs. Thoroughly endowed with that get-up-and-get so common among the budding manhood of Kansas, he settled in Colorado Springs several years ago, and through his thrift, energy and enterprise, has become one of her most useful and honored citizens. In political, social and religious circles he holds an enviable place. As a political "spell-binder," no man of his race throughout that long range of hills has ever been so greatly in demand. He speaks the Kansas language, is logical, eloquent and convincing, and while his county gave a Democratic majority in the recent election, his stubborn campaign saved the day for every Republican whose cause he espoused. At present, Mr. O'Banlion is "turn key" at the county jail, and in all probabilky will land a larger plum on his return home. He is a thirty-second degree Mason, a good, honest, clean, upright fellow, and Kansas and Kansans are pleased to greet him and note his success. A WELCOME VISITOR Mr. H. L. Sheppard of Prescott, Arizona, is the guest of Miss Lizzie Cooper. Mr. Sheppard is one of the leading and most progressive men of the West, who is engaged in business in Prescott, and who is also interested in mining and real estate PETER H. MR. H. E. SHEPPARD business. He was born in Morris county, Illinois, and came West in 1880. He has been all over the West and is well acquainted with its resources and customs. He is also well acquainted in British Columbia. He is a member of the Masonic lodge at Phoenix, under the jurisdiction of Colorado; also an Elk, being a member of the Great Lake lodge No. 41 of Chicago. It is rumored that he will lead one of Topeka's leading ladies to the altar in the near future. No man has ever visited Kansas and made more good, warm substantial friends than Mr. Sheppard. He is a prince of good fellows—highly cultured and refined, and his splendid education an fine talent places him in a class far above the average denizen of this spehere. Morally, socially and otherwise, he tanks at the head of class "A" and Topka and a host of warm friends throughout Kansas will always accord Mr. Sheppard a warm welcome to the state and their homes. Happenings In Great Big Kansas City! When in Kansas City visit Mrs. U. F. Scales' Square Deal Restaurant, 1902 Vine St. She serves first class meals and has confectionaries in connection.

They killed 32 squirrels, several rabbits, coon and 'opossum. Mrs. Cowden is credited with bagging more game than any of the party. Mr. Cowden is a tongorial artist on E. Twelfth street. The people of Kansas City are mourning the loss of two big 200 pound men. One of these gentlemen, Mr. J. H. Vorhies, whose number of warm friends who are deligently searching for him. The other, Mr. Frank Jennings is being deligently sought by the sheriff of Wyandotte county. He absconded with about $3,500 belonging to the Masonic W. & O. Fund and the order would pay liberally for his apprehension. He served on the police force of Kansas City for several years. He weighs about 240 pounds brown skinned black mustacche, otherwise clean shaven, red eyes, slew-footed and very glibby. While in Kansas City we attended the "White Slave Play," at the "Grand," where Mr. Arche Huddleson, wife and eighteen other colored singers constitute the entire chorus. The Huddlesons and two others comprise a quartette who are unequaled for harmony and melody, and they were compelled to respond to five encores. Mr. Huddleson, the chorus director, is the only one of color whose name appears upon the printed program, which shows the prejudice and envy on the part of the white man who likes to use the Negro to make money, but never give him proper credit for his brain, talent and ability. The play in itself does much to relieve prejudice, as it shows both sides of the whites in the South who pretend to hate the man of color. It teaches a splendid lesson to the ignorant, prejudice whites who are always ready to cast insinuations upon the blacks from the simple fact that the colored brother is outstripping him in the race of life.

The road to success is full of perplexities and rough places, and if we stop every time we get a bump and sit down, we will find that most of our time is spent in sitting down. The rush on the "pie" counter is worse than a run on a bank, and it will take a wise man and a man of patience to handle this great army of office seekers and not be cussed. The tariff question is like an electric wire that is charged—touch it in the wrong place and there will be a sudden shock and a spell of darkness. So, don't tinker unless you know just where you are "at." There is an old saying that if the shoe pinches the foot no one else will know it unless you limp. The best thing to do is not to yell when hit by a chance blow, and no one will be as wise as you are. President Taft is not leaving the irrepression that to be president of the United States is like to riding to glory on a flowery bed of ease. The bigger the honor the more the worry, but we are willing to take the worry and troubles for the honor just the same. Now that the election is over and the solid South is as solid as ever, Mr. Roosevelt has crawled into his den of silence to figure out how it happened that the people were not as crazy as he imagined they were. When Roosevelt or any other man but a Democrat succeeds in breaking the solid South then the devil will surrender his kingdom and give up his rule as a bad job. If the charges are true Kansas has some of the most notoriously ignorant and extremely crooked men on its election boards. These men are scattered all over the state. Kansas should be up-to-date and relegate this class of men out of the way on election boards for men upto-now, and offer enough pay for the this service to the state to induce good men to accept such duty as election judges and clerks. A thing, which calls itself a man, which lives out went of here, is to be made a fool of by an action of the state supreme court, which compels this "it" to do something that it swore not to do, and that is to sign a teacher's certificate for a colored woman who had been elected to teach a school in the county in which this thing was the county superintendent. All such varments are better off in a warmer climate than is found here on earth, as to be coal-heaver there would about suit the calling of all such. Be it so. It is now about time for the annual revival when the preacher with leathern lungs will whoop and yell like Commanche Indians to scare a few people into the church by picturing to them the awful condition of the wicked in the midst of everlasting torment. But he or she who goes into the church because of fear of Satan does so on account of fear and not because they love the Land and the ways of righteousness, and when the first symptoms of fear have passed the church has a hard time keeping them in the harness The race for governor in Kansas has been so close that it has been pip and tuck between Capper and Hodges as to who would be the first under the wire, but the final results have given the honor to Senator Hodges, and we don't know which has been the more anxious for this result the candidates or the public. It is time that Kansas wake from her lethargy, superinduced by too much Stubbsness and progressism that did not progress, and climb into the handwagon progressing upward, and get onto the methods of the twentieth century. Reward to His Reward. One of the unique characters in the history of Topcka, Mr. Daniel W. Bedwell, passed from labor to reward on Monday at his late home at 425 Van Buren street, at the sixtieth age of 82 years. He lived in Topca for more than fifty-five years and a while. It grew to what it is today. W. Bedwell was a veteran of the Civil war, having seen service in the days of Price and that of four old guerrilla, Quantrell, but through petty jealousies on the part of officer in command friction arose in his regiment in which he took a part and for which he was court martialled and sentenced to wear a ball and chain, but Mr. Boutwell did not propose do this and made his escape and came back to Topeka, and re-enlisted with the Indian scouts and there seen excellent fighting service. The charge against him of desertion was set aside when the case was reviewed at Washington, and Mr. Boutwell returned to his former regiment, the Fifth Kansas cavalry. After he had been mustered out of the service, and had returned to Topeka, about the time that Price was pressing hard on the Union forces, Gen. Deitaler, knowing the fine qualities of Boutwell, sent for him to undertake perilous mission through the rebel lines that Gen. Pleasaton might come to the relief of millions of dollars of stores at Leavenworth. Mr. Boutwell delivered the message and Leavenworth was saved. For this service the state of Kansas gave Mr. Boutwell $1,000, but the United States government, the real benefactor in his valiant deed, never could be induced to pay Mr. Boutwell's claim. Now that he has gone where money is nothing in the balances of justice he will reap a reward fitting to his noble life and generous nature.

MAKING THE LITTLE FARM PAY ```markdown ``` TO grasp the idea of money making through selecting the better types through selecting the better types of live stock farmers need to learn the story of Banoostine Beille De Kol, queen of the dairy world. This Holsteln cow, now five years old and owned by Dimmick & Bro, Ohio breeders, produced last year 27,404.4 pounds of milk testing 3.86 per cent fat. This means over nine gallons of milk per day, or enough to supply thirty-six families each with a quart of milk daily. If made into butter her fat production would equal 1,322 pounds of butter, or over three and one half pounds per day for 865 days. This is all the more remarkable because it was made without her being dry at all before freshening. No other cow has ever produced such an enormous amount of butter fat in a yearly test, and only one has exceeded Banoostine's milk record. Banostine Belle De Kol is a strong, vigorous cow of wonderful capacity and weighs in the neighborhood of 1,600 pounds. She is the daughter of Banostine Belle, who was a grand-daughter of Euphrasia A., one of the greatest foundation cows the breed has ever produced. The size of Banostine Belle De Kol is Friend Hengerveld De Kol Butter Boy. During the time that Banostine Belle De Kol was in the test she received nearly if not all the time more or less cattailage and alfalfa. When available she received roots and mixed grain ration, the foundation of which was bran eats. She was also fed some dried DESTRUCTIVE APPLE PEST. Lesser Worm Continue its Evil Work Even on Fruit in Barrels. In a bulletin on insects which do serious damage to the apple the United States department of agriculture treats of the lesser apple worm. The larvae, it says, do not reach full development as early in the fall as those of the coding moth and may find their way to barrels with the fruit, where they continue to feed, often doing considerable damage. The picture illustrates apples thus injured as found in barrels in the Washington market, in New York city. The lesser apple worm is probably a native insect, and it infests other fruits, wild and cultivated, including Photograph by United States department of agriculitre. INJURY BY LESSER APPLE WORMS TO APPLE AFTER BARBULING. apples, haws, plums, prunes, cherries, peaches and species of crataegus. It has also been reared from the black knot of plum and from galls on oak and elm. Its life history and habits probably parallel those of the coiling moth. It is known to be present quite generally in orchard from Canada south to Georgia and west to the Rocky mountains. It has been found abundantly in apples in the Puget sound district in Washington and is known also from British Columbia. The schedule of treatments recommended for the coiling moth will be effective in the control of this species The treatment for the coding moth is limited almost entirely to spraying the trees with arsenicals, such as parsley green or arsenate of lead. The latter is now principally used. In the east the poison is usually combined with a fungicide. In some sections banding of trees is also employed and under special conditions is a valuable adjunct to spraying. From two to five spray applications are given, according to the section of the country and the season. Of all treatments the first is much the most important. This is given as soon as the blossoms have fullen and has for its object the placing of poison in the calyx cup of each little apple. This treatment may be successfully given during the eight or ten days between the dropping of the petals and the closing of the calyx lobes. Storing Onions Onions to keep well must be stored in a cool and dry place. A little freezing does not necessarily hurt them if they are not exposed to frequent freezing and thawing. Every farmer should get enough plums to make his own meat next winter, bacon is apt to be high, and those who are raising crops to buy their supply are likely to regret it. The best plan is to raise your own meat and have plenty of feed to finish the porkers - Farm and Ranch. --- By C. C. BOWSFIELD boat pulp, especially when fresh roots were not as available. Her grain ration from the first was gradually increased so twenty-five pounds or a little more, but later reduced to as low as nine pounds per day. As near as can be estimated, the average amount of grain fed was twelve or fourteen pounds daily. She also received, when it was available, green corn with the stalks and also green clover and any other green feed that might be available, including feed from the pasture. A cow of fair qualities produces four gallons of milk daily. She is not worth keeping for a dairy unless she will do this, and remember it takes no more feed, room or labor for one giving five gallons than for one giving three or four. This reasoning applies with equal force to other kinds of stock, but more particularly horses and swine. It requires only a little intelligent care in selection to raise a horse that will bring $250 to $500, whereas $150 to $200 is the price of an ordinary animal. The feed bill is not a dollar more. In raising cows breeding and selection will produce animals that will earn $100 to $150 a year or that will sell for $100 to $500, while the indifferent kind are worth next to nothing. There is the same difference in breeding hogs. The gain comes chiefly after the owner has produced something a little better than ordinary. This truism applies to poultry, fruit and farming generally. TWO WAYS WITH HOGS. Care Taken With Animals Repaid Owner in Amount of Pork Yielded. The results of different treatments of hogs came to my notice last spring, when a neighbor sold two average pigs eight weeks old to a man who did not have any other hogs, says a West Virginia correspondent of the American Agriculturist. He bought the two hogs to make pork the next fall and, of course, wanted to give them a good chance to do their best. They were fed whent middlings, milk and scraps from the table, in addition to the pasture they gathered. They were grade Chester Whites, farrowed in April. These two pigs dressed between 150 and 175 pounds each when about seven months old. The pigs that had not been sold and out of the same litter were allowed to run on pasture, and when corn was ready to feed they were fed enough corn to put them in pork condition, but when slaughtered at about the same time as the other two they only weighed sixty-five to seventy pounds each. There was a difference of nearly 100 pounds between these well fed hogs and their mates not so fed, and it was wholly due to different treatments. It is easy to see which was the more economical pork producer—the well cared for hog or the one which got enough feed to barely live until fattening time. The difference in value was almost $10, as pork sold at 10 cents a pound here last fall. The two well cared for hogs did not ent near $10 worth of feed from the time they were separated from their mates until they were slaughtered.

Do your chickens or your neighbor's fly over your picket fence into your garden? If so pull a little strip to each post and stretch a white twine string about six or eight inches above the top of the pickets. The same plan will --- apply to women wire fencing. A white twine string stretched along each panel of fence has all the horrors of the inquisition for a hen, and she will pool tively avoid it. The sketch will give you the idea (AA strips, B string).—A. G. Humphreys. Little Farm Hints. Never mix sun slaked lime with manure, as it will cause the escape of ammonia, one of its most valuable elements. Clean out the haff and lysseed on the barn floor and scatter it over bare places in the lots and pastures. This scattered seed represents good money value, and it should be put to good purpose. If you want spinnach for use in early spring, at the time when dandelion greens are tap, sow seed in September or October. Frequently it does not winter well, especially if not protected by covering lightly with litter. Where practicable the fruit orchards should be planted in autumn. Among the principal advantages are leisure time, better physical condition of soil and the early establishment and consequent earlier growth of trees. Owing to its less hardy nature the peach is to be accepted from the fall planting. Mrs. Jno. Henry entertained some of her friends Sunday with a new graphaphone she recently purchased.

"Schrank is Crazy" is the headline of the dispatches sent out over the country by the alienists, but it was generally known that the man was crazy the next day after his act was committed, by the fact that no sane man would secure a popgun to kill big game with. It is now to be supposed that the commission in lunacy will draw a big salary for this verdict and the state will have to foot the bill at the taxpayers' expense. But they won't kick. It is reported from Pennsylvania that Boss Flinn has cut loose, boots and spurs, from the "Bull Moose," and is on pleading terms with the Republican party managers to get back home, to his first love. Many other cheap skates have tried to win honors by tying on the coat tails of others, and out here in Kansas we have a similar example of this class trying to get office by the popularity of others, but they were not so lucky as Flinn, and they are now down in the dumps. "When thieves fall out just men get their dues" is an old saying and will probably prove true in the case of the Etna people, who are now squabbling among themselves as to who shall have the loaves and fishes which they have succeeded in getting from the public by their manner of conducting business, charging exhorbitant rates of interest to suckers who bite at the tempting "juicy bites" offered by them. And for years this skin game has been allowed to run by the state, almost under the supervision of the Bank Commissioner. (First Published in the Topeka Plaindealer November 15, 1912.)

HOW, WHEN AND WHY A SECOND ADVENT Denver Divines on Right Track Says Pastor Russell No World-Burrang—Satan to Be Bound—Sin, Sickness and Death to Be Conquered—Man to Be Delivered. The Power Vested in Messiah—His Kingdom Near—How It Will Appear. Denver, Dec. 1.—This city is attirell Seventeen pastors of all denominations have been discussing The Second Advent for a month. Now comes Pastor Russell telling us all that "The Earth nibleth forever"—that it will never be destroyed by literal fire. According to PASTOR RUSSELL PASTOR RUSSELL PASTOR RUSSELL attroied by literal fire. According to him the great event of Christ's Coming will bring blessings such as we all desire. He seems to have the Bible and logic on his side tool. Pastor Russell declared that false concepts of the Second Coming of Christ had done great injury. The view set forth in all orthodox creeds is that Christ will come again in the flesh. The resurrection will take place within twenty four hours. The saintly will rise in the air to meet the Lord. Then fire will come down from heaven, and consume the whole earth. Pre-millennialists claim that Christ will reign in fleshly glory a thousand years to bless the living. The majority of Christians disown this as ridiculous nonsense because thy believe little of creed or Bible. A minority perceive its inconsistency with the Bible. What Bible Students Now See. The "fire of that day" is symbolical, already kindling in society, the elements of which, Capital and Labor, are getting hotter. Soon they will melt, the symbolical "earth" will be consumed with the "heaven" also, the ecclesiastical powers. Their passing away will usher in a "new earth," or social order, and "new heavens," the Church in glory. The Second Coming of Christ is associated with blessings. Messiah will abolish the curse and bring in wonderful blessings. The Day of Christ will be "the last Day,"—the great Seventh Thousand year Day. All humanity will be blessed, including the dead who will then be awakened. Christ Comes to Reign. As the redemption war necessary for man's salvation so Messiah's Kingdom is necessary to accomplish restitution. The delay of more than eighteen centuries is Scripturally explained: (1) God designed Six Great One Thousand Year Days to teach mankind the exceeding sinfulness of sin. He purposed that on the Seventh Day the blessing of Messiah should come. (2) An important work has been done since Calvary. An Elect Church has been gathered out of all nations—saints made perfect through suffering, a Little Flock, the "Church of the First born" These are to become the Bride of Christ at His second Advent. The Second Coming of Jesus is to claim His birth class, and to exalt them. As regards the world, he comes to blind Satan, to overthrow sin, and to upflift fallen humanity. St Peter tells that Resolution work, not a literal burning of the world, awaits the Second Coming of Jesus "Times of refreshing sh" come from the presence of the Lord. Acts 1921. Christ's Kingdom to Be Spiritual. One great mistake we have all made is in not taking that Jesus was human for thirty three and a half years. He was a slave us spirit being human for his own sake flesh and He was not "to a spirit condition—hitherto the original one. How foolish we were to think of Jesus as man a boy lower than angel in the midst of the "worldly host. He is now publisher of the Divine nature; His Church is to be "changed" and made "like Him." As his descent was from a bishop to a bishop so his ascent was from a bishop to a bishop to a higher, "far above angels." He is the exceeding glory which not only has no man can cause—"which no man can cannot unto" It is this glad us Being whose Kingdom is about to be established. He and His Church will be as inable to men as the Saints and the fallen angels. The times of Jesus in the flesh after His resurrection were materialization to prove that Jesus was to longer dead; so that He was channeled born of the Spirit, able to go and come like the wind. Parousia, Epiphania, Apokalipsis. Messiah's Kingdom will have earthly represent this the faithful signs of previous was traced to human perfection instantly. Through these the in visible Messiah's Kingdom will operate Jesus and We shall see that he has been to us and all the promises it the Kingdom the lofts will come first I will be in the loft. He will not come with the ordinary statues of whose loft he inhabits the church, the loft of North With the gathering of the church, he will occupy and an apo- pose forth. He will not be in pish but he will be in pish. Double of that day in which the consecration order will be commemorated in our living place the Kingdom Preservation GOOD FOR BARN USE. Variety of Employment May Be Found For Handy Window Jack. A window jack for repairing, cleaning and painting the windows and the openings in the barn should find a place on every farm. The accompanying illustration will show the reader how such a jack may be easily constructed. The upper drawing shows the jack completed and will be understood without further elaboration. The low or drawing shows the jack in place in 4 a window. The pin is made of any strong wood, such as oak or hickory, or it may be an iron pin. As will be seen, several holes are bored in the inside end of the jack and at various angles, so the jack will fit any thickness of walls. The top board should be at least fourteen or sixteen inches wide, and the jack should be well nalled and braced, as illustrated.—Farm and Ranch. SELECT SEED CORN EARLY. Many Advantages In This Plan. Keep Close to Type. One of the main reasons why seed corn should be selected early is to be reasonably sure it will grow the following year when planted, says a Minnesota bulletin. Early selected seed corn is the corn that usually gives the best stand. Without a good stand it is impossible to get a maximum yield, and it costs no more to raise a yield of corn with a perfect stand than it does to raise a field with a 60 to 70 per cent stand. Every good kernel of corn has in it a fire, though very small, corn plant. This plant is tender and easily injured, unless kept under favorable conditions. Seed corn that is not thoroughly dry before cold weather will freeze. The freezing of the kernel causes it to expand, thus injuring the germ, or little plant, lowering its vitality and often destroying it, so the kernel will not germinate. It is well, if possible, to have every ear of seed corn selected before a killing frost. In the choice of corn for seed one selects the ears that he believes will give him the largest yield of good corn the following year. It is a good plan to choose an ear of corn that is as near the type wanted as possible then keep this ear from-year to year, or until you get a better one. At any rate, have a sample ear that you can look at occasionally to help you in following one. Keep this type ear bandy when selecting corn in the fall, and in the spring, when the final selection is made, it is well to compare all ears carefully with the type ear TOO BAD! Let us devote a few minutes of pity to the poor farmer's wife far away from the bargain counter. Her children cannot watch the engines pass by. The only place they have to play is God's out of doors. She cannot go to the telephone and order, with a careless air, state fruits and willied vegetables for dinner but must go out and gather these things fresh from the tree and she. Early in the morning she must get up to see that her better half does not oversleep. She shares the work of the long day with her husband, no time to murmur at her lot; no city joys, only the telephone, the snacking of the trous and rural mail delivery to divert her mind while she is tolling for out to the quiet country. --- Orchard and Garden. After the strawberry leaf has been set and cured for through the summer, it should be mulched through the winter. A bad uncovered in the early spring is pretty sure to start to grow too early. Make a most thorough inspection of all fruit and vegetables before placing them in storage pits or cellar bins. The least fragrance of the skin on fruits will be on later on, and a shock of odor at this time will mean an entirely ruined product in mid-winter, to say nothing of the other products it may contaminate and spoil. Some rotten manure will be needed next spring to place in the bottom of the flats and probably to mix with soil to be used for seed sowing and transplanting. Now is the time to look out for this supply. Either rotten horse manure or row manure will serve the purpose. If this cannot be found a compost pile should be made at once and turned a few times during the winter to improve its texture. Farm and Garden HOME CHEESEMAKING. Product Helps to Lower Living Cost by Taking Place of Meat. In these times of high prices it behooves us to manage in every way to reduce the cost of living, and yet be well supplied with plenty of wholesome and nutritious food. Now, cheese will in a measure supply the place of meat, and if made in the home on the farm will cost but little in comparison with meat. Any one having sufficient cows to obtain five or six gallons of milk in the morning, or part evening's milk can be used providing it is perfectly sweet, can make delicious cheese, and if a part of evening's milk is used it may as well be skimmed, as that cream is likely to be lost. The utensils needed can be found in any farm home. Take six gallons of milk, heat to 85 degrees in a clean wash boiler, remove from the store and add one-half of a rennet tablet, previously dissolved in half a cupful of warm water. Also add a little cheese coloring. A very little will answer, for one does not want cheese too highly colored. Bite well and cover first with a tablecloth and over that several thicknesses of comforter or carpet. Let stand forty or fifty minutes, or until it becomes like A man in a white shirt and black pants is leaning over a table with a bottle of wine and a glass of water.

Then cut clear to the bottom into small squares. Cover and let stand a while longer. Then dip off what whey you can. With a skimmer shop and stir the curd from the bottom up until it is all fine. Place a clean half bucket basket over a tub spread a cheese cloth in it, dip in the curd, let whey drain off, salt to taste and work gently with the hand until well mixed. It is now ready to put into the press. Use a small wooden bucket, with the bottom out, for a hoop. Set this on a clean board, place a clean, wet cheese cloth in the hoop, put in your mixed curd and fold cloth over smoothly as possible, put on a round board or a tin lid that will fit in the hoop and place your weights on, not too heavy at first, add more after a time. Press as dry as possible. Leave in press until evening. Take out, trim off all uneven edges. Put back into the press on a coat, wet cheese both other side up and put all the weights on. Leave until next morning. Take out and bandage or not, as preferred. Place in a warm, dry room to ripen. Keep well covered with a dry cheese cloth to prevent tiles from getting at it. Turn it and rub with a little fresh butter every day. It will be ready for use in four weeks, but will be better if left until six weeks old—American Agriculturist FOOD FOR THOUGHT.

Watkins in which he glommed the great work of the progressive unity, and prophecled its future success. He praised the work of T. R. and placed him next to the Savior. He left the impression that the future of the Republic rests upon his shoulders. He compared him with Lincoln and placed him in the sphere of the other great men. Prof. Sawyer and Prof. Roundtree, Lawyer Guy, Mr. Malory and Dr. Taylor retuted his argument and brought out such damaging points against his discussion that he was sorry that he rendered it. Dr. Taylor read the resolutions that were written by Prof. Watkins, where he centured Rosselt for discharging the twenty-fifth Infantry and declared he was worthy the support of the race and pictured him as a Benedict Arnold. Prof. Watkins was chairman of the committee which adopted the resolutions and when Dr. Taylor read these resolutions it put the audience in a state of great enthusiasm. Prof. Watkins should be careful what he says in these times. Call 388 for . . . . Thank Geese, Ducks Dress Fresh Vegetables, Fru E. W.
