IQ the course of his prayer tbe other
morning Chaplain Couden of the house
beBought the dlvloe bleeBing on "the
department of justice." Congressman
Shattuc of Ohio said "The chaplain
probably meant to say the Bupreme
court, or else he remembered that tbe
attorney general is from Pennsylvania
and needs all the help he can get."
At tbe opening of congress on Mon
day nearly every desk in both houses
was loaded with flowere. It is regarded
as curious that tbe handsomest tributes
of this kind were paid to Congressmen
Connell of Pennsylvania Bnd Loud of
California, both of whom bad been de
feated after renomf nation.
If We SeU We Must Buy.
President McKinley discovered and
proclaimed his discovery In his last
speech at Buffalo that we coald not go
on selling forever without buying some
thing.
Respectable political economists
knew that more than a hundred years
ago. It is a discovery only to those who
are saturated with the virus of tbe
mode of greed and rapacity called "pro
tection."
President Wilson of Princeton has
just proclaimed the same economic
trutb, and be puts it in a way which
indicates that it is not entirely new to
bim. He says we have fostered our in
dustries by tariffs "till they are likely
to burst unless we give them room to
expand."
He says "a balance must now be
struck between the internal fostering
and the need of an outlet to tbe reBt of
tbe world." And in striking tbe bal
ance we shall be forced to see that "we
cannot let our products go where they
will and command the markets of the
world unless we are willing to take
goods in exchange for them, That is
the situation in a nutBhell."
So it is, But neither Wilson nor Mc
Kinley can make our hide-bound the
oretical protectionists, Including Roose
velt, see the truth. Nothing short of a
financial and Industrial earthquake can
open their blind eyes.—Chicago Chron
icle.
"The Mather of Trusts."
The more one examines President
Roosevelt's treatment of the tarllf in
its relation to the truBtB the more he is
amazed that euch a deliverance Bhould
come from a man who IB reputed to be
exceptionally courageous as well aa In
telligent above tbe average.
Of tariff reduction as a means of
reaching the evils of trusts Mr. Roose
velt says: "Not meerely would this be
wholy Ineffective, but the diversion of
our efforts in such a direction would
mean the abandoment of all intelligent
attempt to do away with these evils."
'•Wholly Ineffective?" Then why
does Mr. Roosevelt say further on that
"of course If In any case it be found.
that a given rate of duty does promote
a monopoly which works ill no pro
tectionist would object to such reduc
tion of the duty as would equalize com
petition?" And why does be himself
propose to put antracite coal on the free
list?
Bigoted tariff monopolist as be IB, Mr.
Roosevelt cannot quite close bis eyes to
the fact stated by that great truBt pro
tectee, Mr. Havemeyer, that "the tariff
is tbe mother of trusts."
Mr. Roosevelt must more
than suspect
that "efforts" to deprive tbe trusts of
their tariff shelter would not mean the
abandonment of all, or even any, intelli
gent attempt to do away with the evils
of trusts in other ways.
To abolish or reduce the duties which
enables trusts to export from the
American people 25 to 100 per cent
more for their products than they are
glad to get from the people of other
countries would in no way hinder us
from adopting other measures for the
abatement of trust evils excepfby rend
ering other measures unnecessary.
What Mr. Roosevelt carefully avoids
throughout his somewhat extended dis
course on this subject is the fact that
very many articles are exported In great
quantities and sold at world prices In
open competition with all comers, even
In their own markets, while they are
sold at prices ranging from 25 to 100
per cent higher to American people.

This IB not theory, but fact—notor
ious fact. It is also admitted fact—and
the people who are playing this game of crashed bone
extortion try to make UB believe it is all!
right—that it is quite the correct thing
to bleed Americans in order to enable
some of them to sell goods much cheap-'
er abroad than at home and yet amass
huge fortunes.
There are Americans who say this is
not all right, but all wrong, and they
are not democrats exclusively. The
western woods and in some localities
the eastern are full of republicans who
are heartily Blck of this Bort of thing
and will make themselves heard in one
way or another.
They know, if Mr. Roosevelt does
not, that It is the tariff and nothing else
that enables our manufacturers, wheth
er organized into trusts or not, to exact
more for their goods at home than they
get for tbem abroad.
They know, furthermore, if Mr.
Roosevelt does not, that our producers
are not selling great quantities of their
goodB abroad at a loss. They know
that our protectees sell abroad because
they can make money at the prices
they get and that they can well afford to
sell to their own countrymen at the
Bame prices,
They are not fooled for one minute
by Mr. Roosevelt's assertion that men
who can afford to sell without protec
tion In the markets of tbelr fiercest
competitors would be ruined by selling
at the same prices at home.
They are getting very tired of this
extortion under shelter of the tariff, and
the first thing Mr. Roosevelt knows
they will be ready to tear down the
shelter along with the stupidly false
pretense that it ta not a shelter,—Chi
cago Gbronlole.~

Farmer's Short Course In Live Stock
and Corn Judging.
January 5tn to 17lh, 1 'Jlt.'i. Iowa Slate
Cutlfgc.
In order to meet the urgent demand
for more thorough knowledge regarding
the most deeirablH types of live Btock
and the ccoat economical methods of
producing the same the Animal Hus
bandry Department of the Iowa State
College offers a two week's course in
stock judging for the benefit of the
farmerB of the middle west. This
course is not Intended for the young
man who has tlio lime and opportunity
for taking a innre thorough course In
Agriculture. It 1s intended especially
for that large mass of farmers who, on
account of business operations and
other reasons, cannot avail themselves
of the opportunity of taking a full
course In Agriculture.
In addition to our resruUr corps of
instructors we have eoi:ured the services
of some of tbe most prominent live
stock experts on the continent. Each
instructor will bo a specialist In his par
ticular line, a man who knows his work
from the beginning to the end.
A new feature will be introduced thie
year in the form of slaughter test.
Animals representing each of tbe var
ious market classes of cattle will be in
spected on foot, then killed, cut up and
discussed in detail by John Gosling,
Kansas City, Mo., a man who is per
fectly familiar with tbe work and who
possesses tbe happy faculty of being a
born genius fur Imparting knowledge
to others.
The Following Program WUl Be Carried
Out.
SHEEP—January 5th, 6th and 7th. A
careful study of tbe mutton and wool
types the desirable and undesirable
points to be observed in selecting each
of the various breeds, and the beet
methods of breeding, feeding, care' and
management of tbe farmer's flock.
HORSES—January 8th, Uth Bnd 10th.
A critical study of the various market
types of heavy and light horses. Speci
mens representing each of the^varlouB
types will be used in demonstrating
this work. Tbe best methodB of breed
ing, feeding, and producing horses on
tbe farm.
SWINE—January 12th, 13th and 14tb.
A critical study of the market types of
fat and bacon bogs. Representatives
of each of tbe various breedB will be
used In illustrating tbe desirable and
undesirable features to be observed in
selecting breeding stock. The moBt
economical methods of producing swine
will also be given due attention.
CATTLE—January 15tb,
16th and 17th.
A critical study of tbe beBt types of
beef and dairy cattle. Representatives
of each of the several market classes^of
beef cattle will be provided for this
work. A careful study of the animals
on foot, then a study of their carcasses
after being slaughtered. This will af
ford an education which cannot be had
els where.
Applications should be forwarded at
once as tbe number admitted will be
limited. An entrance fee of @2.00 will
be charged to cover the expenses of
securing outside lecturers and speci
mens of stock not owned by tbe Col
lege. A school in corn judging will be
conducted by Professor Holden and bis
co workers. The work in Belecting,
breeding and improvement of corn is
one which the farmer of the central
west can well afford to study most care
fully.

POULTRY POINTERS.
Supply plenty of gravel to fowls that
are being fattened in confinement.
Chickens should never be allowed to
go ou the roosts until ten or twelve
weeks old.
Lime is purifier and should be used
as a wnsli on the coops, perches and
nest boxes.
If a hen lays soft shelled eggs, give
her plenty of gravel, oyster shells and
Ducks should be allowed as much
liberty as possible. They are not par
tial to confinement.
Flat eggs, eggs within eggs, double
yollced eggs and other unnatural for
mations are due to the hens being over-
fut
Geese may be fattened on any kind
of grain if fed all that they will eat for
about ten days before sending them to
market Coru, peas and barley are
best
Young chicks of fancy breeding
should not be permitted to roost on
perches until after they are eight
mouths old, as it often causes crooked
breast bones.
Accumulating filth Is a prolific source
of disease, especially gapes. After the
poultry yard is cleaned up sprinkle it
well with diluted carbolic acid and a
little copperas.
FRUITS AND FLOWERS.
In planting the orchatd care should
be taken to allow each tree plenty of
room.
A layer of charcoal in the bottom of a
flower bed is very beneficial in keep
ing the soil fresh.
In plowing in tho orchard always
turn the furrow toward the tree, and
be careful not to injure the fine, fibrous
roots.
The life of an apple tree is often
shortened because it grows in a poor,
exhausted soil or one not properly
drained.
When ill or aiUng, handle tho flowers
little or wear gloves. Delicate plants
are sensitive to human magnetism,
good or bad.
Tho roots of the strawberry often

stem hence the plants should uot bo
set too thickly.
An apple or cherry tree Is much
more valuable If It shoots out low.
Trim from the top, nB this will cause
tbe lower branches to grow out.
Luiul that has been too rough for
plowing may yet be sufficiently fertile
to grow fruit trees and is better than
land that has been exhausted by crop

All Sirloin.
Ilolman F. Day's "Pino Tree Bal
lads" tells in verse a number of sto«
rles that actually happened "down In
Maine," and are remembered there to
day by old narrators. One relates to
Barney McGauldrie, a landlord of that
state, at whoso house famous men
liked to stay, that they might enjoy a
merry Joke.
Barney was always loyal to his
friends. At one time a new meat
dealer came to town and tried to se
cure the landlord's trade.
"I have always bought meat of Jed
Haskell," said Barney, "and I guess
I won't change."
"But," said the othert "old Haskell
doesn't know his busiuess. Ho doesn't
even know how to cut meat."
"Well," drawled Barney. "I've al
ways found -that he knows enough
about it to cut sirloin steak clear to the
horn, aud that's good enough for me."
The IVIIKUIII'M Damp of Locality.
On shore the penguin is an awkward
creature. Water is its element. When
hunted on the ice floes, the birds gen
erally try to run away In an upright
position, but just as the hunter thinks
he has got one the bird lies down on its
white belly and paddles along over the
snow very quickly, the hard, smooth
quills slipping over the snow crystals
almost without friction. A remarkable
characteristic of the penguin is his
bump of locality. Both on shore and
In the water he nefer loses his way.
To human eyes one ice floe is precisely
like another, but under that roof of
similar Ice floes I have seen a penguin
of the larger species And its mate on a
floe after diving and swimming for a
full mile under water,--Leslie's.

Iter Sentiments,
It Is related of a clergyman who was
the father of a charming and beauti
ful daughter that one day while pre
paring his Sunday sermon he was sud
denly called away from his desk on a
mission of mercy. The sentence at
which he left off was this: "1 never see
a young man of splendid physique and
the promise of a glorious manhood al
most realized but my heart Is filled
with rapture and delight."
His daughter, happening to enter tlio
study, saw the sermon and read the
words. Sitting down, she wrote under
neath, "My sentiments, papa, exacts
ly!"
A Queer Transaction*
Sir Arthur Sullivan discovered at
Monte. Carlo one time that certain res
taurant proprietors had a way of reg
ulating their charges with the appear
ance and standing of their customers.
When lunching alone, Sir Arthur was
lu the habit of frequenting one partic
ular place where ho knew to a centime
what the prices were.
One day there sat at the table adjoin
ing his own a wealthy Russian noble
man. Upon asking for his bill the
composer found that the prices were
exorbitantly high. Ho sent for the
proprietor and demanded an explana
tion.
Whi
ly
The man, an Italian, recognized Sir
Arthur as an influential client and
was profuse In his apologies. He ex
plained that the mistake lay with the
cashier. Going over the Items to which
exception was taken, the proprietor
said: "The couvert I take him off di
rectly, and the butter I charge him to
the grand duke. He not notice it."
The Idea of charging to the grand
duke an item against whose extortiou
ate price another customer protested
always struck the great composer as a
decidedly humorous way of getting out
of the diiflculty.
Royal Road to Wealth.
a certain late shah of Persia
ueeame temporarily embarrassed for
money, he had quite a unique method
of filling his purse. He would go to
the market, where, after examining
the shops, he would select one and,
turnlug to the proprietor, would say,
"Will you take me in as a partner in
your business for the day?" The of
fer was, of course, eagerly accepted.
The shall would take his scat near the
shop entrauco and say to his courtiers,
whom he always took witl^hiui ou
these occasions: "Now, I'm salesman.
Who'll buy?" The latter, not daring to
refuse the offers of the royal mer
chant, set about clearing the shop of
its contents, paying sometimes £50 for
goods that wore not worth £10. No
one was allowed to beat down prices
or to leave the place without makiug
purchases. When everything was sold,
the shah had a list of the cost prlco of
each article made out aud loyally,
shared with tho shopkeeper the
amount of the profit realized.
The Word Bible,
The word Bible furnishes a striking
instance of a word's rise from very
low to high estate. To the bulk of
English speaking folk it now means
the book of books. In Chaucer's day
it meant any book whatever or scroll
to speak by the card lest equivocation
undo us. Tracing the word Bible
straight home, wo find It as bublos, but
another name for the papyrus reed of
Egypt.—National Review.
