Mr. Griggs, attorney general, cannot
understand why the people should be so
afraid of trustB. Mr. Grigge has been
known to crawl right up and feed from
the hands of the trusts and no one will
have the nerve to declare that the trusts
ever injured Mr. Griggs.—Omaha
World Herald.
In choosing a speaker, like choosing
a horse, attention should be paid to the
eyesight. There were times when
Speaker Reed was totally unable to see
a democrat. It was a serious trouble
with Bome statesmen. Speaker Sherman
of the Illinois house was troubled in
the same way. It is queer, because
democrats as a rule are at least physic
ally as large as republicans.—Peoria
Herald.
If any considerable body of people in
this country believe that a great wrong
is being committed by the nation
against any class or race, their outcries
can no more be silenced by denuncia
tion than you can exterminate anew
religion by persecution. Begin to
harass a man for his opinions and you
may make a fanatic of him. They
either raise the world or raise hell.—
SpringBeld Republican.
There is a grand opening in Cedar
liapids for a balloon livery where the
people would be enabled to hire means
of conveyance that would allow them to
travel without fear of fool bicycle
riders and fooler drivers. It will soon
be that the life insurance rates for a
man who is so ill that be is unable to
leave his house will be cheaper than for
a man in good health and who exposes
himself to great risk in traveling across
or along the streets and avenues.—
Gazette.
The czar's proposed peace conference
does not'seem to cast a soothing shadow
before it. There are no pacific symp
toms even in the czAr's dominions. On
the other hand, it is reported that an
army division in St. Petersburg is get
ting under arms to move into Finland.
In the meantime the emperor of Ger
many indicates his idea of peace by
laying the corner stone of another
strong fort at Metz. The emperor says,
of course, that the new fort is "a guar
antee of peace." These crowned beads
have a queer way of testifying their
anxiety for pacification.
The agricultural implement manufac
turers got together in Chicago tbiB
week and made a general advance of
fifteen percent on all agricultural ma
chinery, and the farmer "will have to
pay the freight." If there is anything
which the farmer uses which is not now
in the trust, please keep quiet about it,
for if any one finds it out it will be
trusted before night. These highway
robbers have been licensed to bleed the
people by the Republican party, and
the more their revenue, the more money
they will have with which to corrupt
the voters to retain their power and
prestige.—State Advertiser.

Fortunately and, it may be said, un
expectedly the ordination of Rev.. Dr.
Briggs was accomplished without pro
test or sensation of any kind. It is,
however, rather unflattering to modern
Christianity that the police authorities
of New York city deemed it advisable
to have fifty oilicers present at the
procathedral in anticipation of trouble.
Nor was the precaution superfluous.
When Turkish soldiers—infidels—are
kept busy in Jerusalem preventing
members of rival Christian sects from
breaking one another's heads, right at
the cradle of Christianity, it is not
surprising that the New York chief of
police considered that there were good
prospects for a row should the friendB
and opponents of Dr. Briggs come into
collision at his ordination. The cir
cumstance constitutes no reflection up
on the Christian religion. It merely
illustrates the undeniable fact that
some professors of that religion are a
long way from exemplifying its teach
ings.—Chicago Chronicle.
Human Live* Marked Down To $10,
A Connecticut court has awarded 810
damages for the death of a railway
workman who waB killed by the
negligence of the railway's agents.
The award is at once an absurdity
and an outrage. It coBts more than $10
to bury a man. The very clothes that
this workman wore when mangled by
an engine were worth more than that.
Putting aside all consideration of
natural affection, any man who works
for wages is worth more than $10 in
mere money to those dependent upon
him.
But the corporations own Connecti
cut, as they are trying to own New
York. In that State as in this they
have secured laws limiting their liabi
lity for killing anybody to 35,000. But
in ibis State their influence has never
been suflicient to induce a court to cut
that liability down to $10. Every
honest mind must resent such a travesty
of Juitloe.—N. Y. World.

Misguided may have been the arm,
But valiant was the heart.

AND DAIRY.
Supplements to Skim 1111k in Fatten
ing Calves.
The Iowa Station has conducted ex
periments extending over a number of
years to learn what feeding stuffs may
be profitably combined with skim milk
for calves. In two of the tests linseed
meal, ground oats, and a mixture of
corn meal and flaxseed were compared
as supplements to separator skim milk.
In the last test reported corn meal was
also included. For this test (which
covered 74 days) twelve calves were
divided into four lots of three each.
During the test each lot consumed
about 3,700 pounds of separator milk
and 1,480 pounds of hay. In addition,
lot 1, was fed 429 pounds of linseed
meal lot 2, 605 pounds of oatmeal lot
3, 59 pounds of flaxseed and 538 pounds
of corn meal, and lot 4, 601 pounds of
corn meal. The lots were kept In well
ventilated sheds with yards connecting.
Salt and water were always accessible.
The foods consumed, gains made, and
cost per pound of gain in the last ex
periment are shown in the following
table:
From these figures It appears that the
best and most economical gains were
made on corn meal and skim milk,
Comparing the ^results of all the tests
made, it iB found that "in each of tbe
three experiments conducted by this
station
linBeed
In recent experiments in Holland the
effects of increasing the fat in skim
milk for calves or of adding starch was
tested. Suflicient whole milk waB add
ed to skim milk to make the desired
amount of fat.
WhenBtarch was fed it was cooked
to a paste in the skim milk. About 94
per cent of the starch' was digested, the
coeflicient of digestibility being as high
as in the case of the adult animal. The
addition of starch to the ration dimin
ished the digestibility of protein some
what. It was, however, on the whole
satisfactory, although the .author $be
lieves that fat is preferable.
A prominent French investigator has
recently published the results of anum
ber of years' experience in feeding
starch and^skim^milk to calves, and re
gards this combination of foodB aB very
satisfactory. He states that a calf
weighing on an average 70 pounds at
birth should gain about 2 pounds in
weight a day, about 6 quarts of milk
being required for this by a calf of the
above weight. When the calf is eight
days old, starch in the proportion of 1.7
ounces to a quart of milk may be sub
stituted for whole milk. No bad re
sults follow the change in feed and the
gainB made are satisfactory. The
starch should be cooked to a smooth
paste with half the milk used, then
mixed with the remainder and fed
warm. The value of this method of
feeding from an economical standpoint
is discussed at considerable length.
These experiments all indicate that
what might be expected on theoretical
grounds is found to be the case in prac
tice- It is known that the body re
quires protein for its growth and main
tenance, and in addition fat and carbo
hydrates for supplying tbe necessary
energy. Whole milk is the normal
food of the calf it contains a suf
ficient amount of protein, If the
fat is removed, the skim milk sup
plies the same amount of protein as be
fore, but something must be added as a
source of energy. It is known .that
within limits fat and carbohydrates
(either in form of starch or cereal grains)
were successfully combined with skim
milk and in this way tbe animal was
supplied with an abundance of protein
and energy and made satisfactory gains.
When it is possible to supply protein in
a by-product such as skim milk, and the
supplementary material in an expensive
form, the profitable feeding of calves is
assured.—Farmers Tribune.
MANCHESTER, IOWA, WEDNESDAY, MAY 24, 1899.
meal has given lower
and more expensive gains and has been
in every way less satisfactory than
either oatmeal or corn meal or flaxseed.
The results Indicate that pure cow
meal is superior to pure linseed meal
for feeding calveB in combination with
skim milk."
While the results of these experi
ments are contrary to prevailing opin-'
ion concerning the relative value of
these feeds, it is not unnatural or in
any way unreasonable that the carbon
aceous grains should be more suitable
for feeding with skim milk than a high
ly nitrogenous product like

He Favorit the "Higher Criticism"and Hla
Olasaex Uive Trouble.
Des Moines, la., May 12.—Chancellor
W. B. Craig, of Drake university, has
issued a statement denying the story
printed in Chicago Wedne-day morning
relative to the alleged heresy trial of
Professor Oscar T. Morgan of that In
stitution. Professor Morgan is a friend

His views led to a split In hla classes.

meal.
The conclusion seems warranted that
a nitrogenous feed, such as oatmeal is
neither necessary nor most profitable to
supplement a separator milk ration for
young calves. All of these rations, even
when corn and flaxseed were used, were
narrower than whole milk, and it is
evident that the element lacking in
separator milk is not albuminoids, but
fat or its equivaleut—oarbohydrates—
in some form palatable and digestible
to calves.
Two Little Boys Drowned*

this republic with England or any oth
er country, believing the country's
watchword should be friendly relations
with all, entagling ailianceswith none."
A state convention of Irish-Ameri

Irish League in calling a convention for
an early day when a state wide move
ment for rendering financial and moral
aid to Ireland will be launohed.
