Tlie death recently of Jerome Sliavohead, a member of the Sioux tribe of Indians of North Dakota, re moved a valuable friend of the gov ernment and an example of the best Bort of educated Indian. The son of a tribal policeman, who had in his day assisted in the capture of Sitting /Bull, Jerome was educated at Hampton, Va., and on going back, to the reservation maintained a friend ly attitude toward his white neigh bors, in spite of practical ostracism by a part of the tribe. He had been active in securing the passage of the Indian policeman pension bill. Colonel John Singleton Mosby of guerrilla fame threatens to outlive all the members of his command who fought under the black flag in the uncivil war. He is only 71 and has taken a new lease of life since his appointment as an assistant at torney in the department of justice. There is an erroneous impression that Mosby held office under Presi dent Grant. He publicly supported Grant for the presidency because the general protected him and his guer rillas at the surrender, and in his second term Grant offered him sev eral appointments, all of which he refused. It was Hayes wlio made him consul at Hong-Kong. John Mitchell, the president of the United Mineworkers, was talking one dny about poor men and their troubles. "I remember," he said, 'hearing two breaker boys once dis cuss socialism, reform and kindred topics. The smaller boy said: 'What is the thing that they call "division of labor"? do you know?' 'Oh, yes, I know, all right,' said the other boy. 'Well, what is it?' said the lirst. 'Division of labor,' said the big boy, 'is like this. You are work ing hard with the sledgehammer. I come and say we'll have division of labor. You say you agree to that. Then, afterward, you keep bangin' aiW)aiy*'with the sledgehammer the eame.os before, only I go "ugh" for at each Stroke.'

Baer, president of the Read ing railroad, told the interstate com merce commission the othc day that the price of anthracite coal was not fixed «o much by the cost of min ing and transportation as by the willingness of the consumer to pay what was asked. And to the attor ney who was questioning him he added: "You sell your legal services in the same way, I presume." The important difference between the two cases is that tho size of the at torney's fees i3 regulated by com petition, while there is practically a monopoly in the anthracite coal busi ness. Apparently Mr. Baer doesn't realize that the failure of competi tion to regulate certain monopolistic holdups is one reason why there is a trust problem in the United States. —Kansas Citv Star. Glass on the Face of the Dead. In order to preserve the features of those who have died it is proposed by a Russian to embalm corpses by casting around them a solid moss of glass. This would be perfectly transparent, and as no air could get in the features would be preserved indefinitely. Of course, it is not possible to pour.molten glass direct ly on the body, so it is first coated with a thin ccating of so-called "liq uid glass," oi odium silicate. This is allowed to harden and forms a. protective' coating. The body is then put in a mold and melted glass poured around it. When this is hardened we have a solid, transpar ent mass inclosing the body. The inventor of this process hopes that some day we will have a large mus eum filled with the perfectly preserv ed bodies of the great men of their times for future generations to gaze upon.—Colliei's Weekly. I ft! S It is high time that hazing, now so common in colleges, should bo itopped. A citizen in New York has inaugurated a plan which, if the court does its duty in the premises, will establish a precedent which if followed, would put an end to the barbarous practice. His son, while at college, was pulled out of bed on a very cold night by a number of students. He was not allowed to dress and with no clothing on but his night gown was compelled to run tho gauntlet and beaten as he ran. The boy finally fell from ex haustion and became ill because of hi% brutal treatment. The boy's father appealed to the college auth orities, who refused to take any ac tion against the perpetrators of the outrage, and theieupon he brought action for $10,000 against the col •lege for the injuries sustained by his son. We fully agree with fle Des Moines News/when, referring to this case it says: "A legal prece dent is needed, and it is to be hoped the New York case will make it. If the trustees of an institution are held responsible in damages for the in juries sustained by pupil during the hazing process, the cruel prac tices will be stopped. A college ia the last place for the teaching of brutality. Young men Are hot sent to schools to learn to be savageB." "I i* -1 'What the Famar-SlunilA Laarn. (Portland Uregonlw).] Tlie farmer must learn to place a cadi value upon his own time and labor and know where they tire ex pended and what results they pro duce. He must learn to think of the dairy cow as a machine for manu facturing dover, etc., into milk-a machine that will do its best work when kindly treated, sheltered from storms and fed a balanced ration. The small plots of idle ground should be made to produce some thing that will sell in the market or supply the family table. The waste products of orchard, garden or grain field should bo turned into pork, mutton or poultry, while everything that can serve no better purpose should, if possible, add fertility to the soil. Rotation of crops should make summer fallowing unnecessary and $10 worth of apples should not be lost for the want of $1 worth of spray. Dairy Notes. It is a surprising fact, when one comes to-think about it, that the Danish farmers can outclass us when it comes to supply the. English mar ket with butter. The Danes are farmingjon land which is worth $500 an acre, while we are beginning to complain of high prices when land values go up to $75 or $100 per acre. After all, would it not be well for us to draw a lesson from the suc cess of the Danes and conclude that high priced land and the dairy in dustry go well together? One of the secrets of success of the Danish dairymen is the fact that they co operate. These people are running co-operative creameries, co-operative establishments for selling eggs and cooperative slaughter houses. From September 12 to September 25 is the time when dairy tests and beef tests will be carried on at the world's fair. If you are especially interested in cattle, that will be an opportune time to attend the fair. A $ 5 "ad" "l? Brought Him 'j Ai&$ 3 MANCHESTER, IOWA, WEDNESDAY, JUNE 15, 1904 Peace.

If you are troubled with eggs that are not fertile, look about and see if your hens are getting enough exer cise and plenty of wholesome food. They should run with vigorous males. The hens that lay the "golden eggs" are the ones that need a good deal of care in order to keep them laying freely. Don't forget the fact that early spring chickens are the best ones to save for laying next winter, that is if you are anxious to get a bulge on the pocketbook. $30. The farmer pays but little atten tion to advertising. He is not used to it, and has not good judgment as to whatsit will do for him. A few years ago a neighbor had a fine four year old Guernsey bull that he want ed to sell to prevent inbreeding. All that the stockyard people in this city would pay for thg animal was 7 10. We told him that the stocks' yard was no market for breedini animals. The men to sell that kini of stock to were the men who want them for breeding purpose. We suggested a small advertisement in the "Dairyman," but when we told him it might cost him $5.00 he took fright at once. He could not look beyond that five dollars. Final ly we coaxed him to try it and he received a bushel of letters finally Belling the bull for $70, and he had to sand several drafts to those who were too late with tl(sir ltjone He made $25 by investment or 5( per cent. Last autumn we had 400 bushels fine two rowed Bavarian barley to sell. All the buyers in this vicinity would pay was 55 cents. 4 small advertisement in the "Dairyman" Sold 430 bushels at $1.20 per bushel. A fa* yeprs mo we persuaded three farmers ftear this city who had each a half dozen or so nice Jersey and Guernsey calves, to advertise them. Answers came from a dozen states, and they all went in a bunch to a purchaser in Idaho. Farmers do not often enough try to co-operate in the way. Some Ifcdy must come along and urge theui to do it. Good profit can oft en bo made on products of tho farm like seed, grain, dairy cattle, well bred pigs and fowls by advertising them in a good farm paper, and es pecially in a local paper. The pap er is a go-between and should be used more more than it is.—Hoard's Dairyman.

While walking about the streets of New York city one morning be saw a teamster whipping a balky horse. "Stop that, you brute," he exclaimed, "or I'll havo you locked up Inside of five minutes! Why don't you try kind ness on the animal? pon't you sup pose a horse can be reached by a kind word the same as a human being?" "1 b'lieve ye're right, sor," replied the teamster, a quick wltted Irishman, who, with all his faults of temper, was not a bad man at heart, "an' if a harso has feelln's, sor, don't ye s'pose his dhrlver has too?
