Russia and the World's Opinions.
At war with Japan, dreaded by
China, hated even by the Turks, con
demned by the immense bulk of
Chrietondom, attacked by its own
people at home, the Russian auto
cracy is moat surely the loneliest
government on the face of the earth.
East and west at this moment seem
united in withholding from it the
slightost sympathy, while among
hundreds of millions throughout the
world the Muscovite tyranny is an
object of execration. Even where one
would- naturally look for some de-'
fense of the Czardom at this time,
as in Berlin, Vienna and Paris, not a
voice is raised in behalf of the auto
cracy. Sprinfied, (Mass.) Republi

Dr. Wiley, chief of the agriculture
department bureau of chemistry,
says that 85 per cent of the whisky
sold over the bar in this country is
adulterated.
In a dozen cities the discovery
has been made that whisky is
dangerously adulterated with wood
alcohol.
But who is alarmed by these por
tentous facts?
Certainly not those who drink the
stuff.
lie who will ignore the far more
deadly dangers of pure whisky is
not going to shy at a little common
poison.
He who wilf risk his own strength
of mind and character and the
happiness and hope of those nearest
and dearest to him will not be scared
out by a little physical danger.
The wrongs done the world by
adulterated whisky may be many,
but they are are not to be compared
with the wrongs done in the world
by whisky that is pure.
A few groves may be filled by the
me, but by the other are filled the
prisons, poorhouses, hospitals and
insane asylums for generation after
generation.
Of the two the adulterated is the
safffst. It is quickest in its action
and most merciful. It kills but
once. It kills but one at a time,
not whole families, and it does not

bond guaranty,
Sugar
Through a uona guaranty, our
government is about to promote the
construction of nearly a thousand
miles of railways in the Philippines
and with the opening of our mar
kets to the products of the islands
there will come about a period of
agricultural and commercial de
velopment that is needed above all
things to justify our regime in the
acliipelugo and to furnish a basis
and a fixed standpoint for the future
growth of our larger Oriental in
terests. At present prices, the
sugar trust is making enormous
profits on its investments in West
ern beet-sugar mills, and the coun
try needs to be informed that there
is no danger whatever that the fa
vorable admission of sugar from the
Philippine Islands will retard the
triumphant progress in western
America of the saccharine beet-root.
Even if it could be figured out, as
it cannot, that the admission of
Philippine sugar could hurt our
sugar interests, it would be eaBy
enough to show that the growth of
Philippine prosperity would help
American cotton-growers far more
than it could injure American sugar
manufacturers. The methods used
meanwhile to prevent Congress from
acting upon the recommendations of
President Roosevelt, Secretary Taft,
and the Philippine Commission only
serve to call the attention of the
American people to the dictatorial
spirit of the sugar trust. Wo had
a duty to perform toward Cuba that
involved national good faith, and^ve
have even a higher duty to perform
toward the Philippine Islands. The
American sugar trust, meanwhile,
would do well to abate its political
activities. Doubtloss, in due time,
it will endeavor to control the
Philippine sugar product, also. For
it knows how to adapt itself to
changed conditions, as it has shown
at several memorable junctures.—
From "The Progress of the World,"
in the American Monthly Review of
Reviews for February
Senator Dolliver was making a
speech during the campaign in West
Virginia near the place where lie
was reared, lie waxed sentimental.
"Dear old country," he said, "1 love
every foot of it. I know it as well
as I do my adopted state. Why, right
over there is a farm whert I have
spent many hours. I gathered and
carried away more than fifty bushqls
of chestnuts that grew on that farm."
"Yes," came from a seat the rear,
"and you have been peddling them
out over since."
The sacredness of keeping
promise so that one's word may be
relied on always is equal to a fortune
to young people starting out in life.
No higher recommendation can be
given one than to say of him, "His
word is as good as his bond." To
be reliable and truthful are noble
qualities, and "will carry ono safely
from youth to old age through the
varied storms of life. Wallaces'

Am 1 eallefled with my chosen voca
tija in life?
Most emphatically I s«y, yce.",''
W by am I Batiifled
First. Because ihern is a satisfaction
in living tbo free independent life of
tlie farmer. There in supreme satis
faction in being Tour own boaa. Yon
can go to bed and get up when yon
piosse. Go to work and quit when yon
please and no one to fanti yon If yon
are a few minutes I ite as In tbe ease
with the man wo.king on regular
salary. We have tri*l this and know
from experience. There Is a satisfac
tion in sowing the seed, watching It
grow, tending the corn, gathering and
feeding it out to the steers and pigs
and in seeing them grow into fine
specimens of beef
st:-\
pork, and then
If prioes are goo It supreme satis
faction to ship thein to market and re
ceive the returns of the well earned
dollars. It la also satisfactorf to the
farmer to plant small trees and see
them grow to be huge trees of tbe
forest during our short lives here on
earth. Your wrl'er bas apple trees
planted from seed 45 years ago that are
over two feet in diameter, and white
pines over two feet in diameter that
will make line saw logs of valuablo
lumber, planted by his own hands from
little seedlings gathered In the woods
only a few inches high when set in nur
aury rows where they were grown until
large enough to transplant in rows
around the tarn), uad who would not
iy^there waa aaiUJflfition in watoti)iig
tbeso fine trees gro,v and also to eat the
frultB of bis own trees and vines. Ail
these things help 10 endear one to his
homo on the farm aB well as help to
beautify the landscape and add value
to our commonwealth. I cgn assure
you it was a satisfaction to UB after all
our neighbors in an early dBy in the
fifties told ns we could not raise apples
and fruit in this country to be able to
show them in a few years trees loaded
with fine fruit, and then another satis
faction In being the first mau to ship a
huuared barrels of appleB of his own
growing out of Delaware county.
It is also very satisfactory to the
practical farmer to be able to so mate
bis stock as to improve any defects in
them, to watch this improvement and
know that he has accomplished his de
sire. It is also the same with gralnr,
vegetables, fralts and flowers. Mot
satisfied with the crab apples, choke
cherries and wild berries of nature he
goeB to work to improve them until to
day from the sour apple of natnre we
have apples fit for the taste of tbe
Queen. And plumi, cherries aud ber
ries of all varieties that are really good
enongh for man or woman either and
all these are surely a thing to make a
man satisfied with his calling. Another
satisfaction to us has been in being
able to go out in the orchard or garden,
and especially in the strawberry patch
and gather the fruit and vegetables
fresh from trees and vines instead of
having to buy stale stuff from the
grocers as the man in town is many
times compelled to do or go without
them. We also find great satisfaction,
comfort and profit in watching and
carlug for the buBy bees, In fact there
IB no work I ever did on the farm so
pleasing and satisfactory as to work
with the bees. 1 love tt see tbem hus
tle in and out their hives gathering
honey during a good honey flow. We
atso love to carry In the honey, case
dfter case, until we have it piled up by
the tons. And then above all there is
satisfaction in taking in the cash after
sales for you come nearer getting
something for nothing than in any
thing we ever worked at. There is al
so great satisfaction in knowing you
have the best of everything If you only
work to get it. We bavo derived a
great deal of satisfaction from taking
the products of our farm snd produced
by our own labor to the great fairs of
our own state, and also of those adjoin
ing as well as all tbe great expositions
of tbe world held in the United States
and comparing or In placing them in
competition with those from other
stotes snd countries as well as our own
state. And we are well satisfied with
th9 result,we have attended every Iowa
State Fair since 1862. Forty two state
fairs without missing one, and In all
that time our cash premiums have run
from 300 to over 800 dollars per vear.
We were awarded a npedal at Philadel
phia on our farm products. We re
ceived 91 premiums of 1st degree of
merit at the great World's fair at New
Orleans. We also received over 30
awards and medalB at Chicago, and at
Omaha we received thirty-one medals,
and at St. Louis we received on the
products of our Delaware County farm
more Grand prizes than was given any
three states as well as gold medals on
graio, grass seeds and grasses, and slt-

v-r m?1alson honey and apples We
also had the supreme satisfaction of
having the superior jury at St. Louis
tell HS we had a liner exhibit of grains
and grasses than they bad over seen be
fore. They said the Smithsonian In
stitute nor the Department at Wash
ington anywhere near appro iched it.
Thay said our sprint? wheat, oats, IHx
and timothy seed as well as blue gras?
and reu top seed were ths best they had
ever Been any where, and were the best
in the building, and on which tbey gave
mo Grand Prize scoring 99 poiuts. Wo
feel that evidence of this Kind goes a
good wtyj toward making a mm satis
lied with
hlB
vocation in life Hut why
coritinr.n this farther, wa might co:?
tlnue on and write volumes In ex
tenuation of the satisfaction of the
iruers vration in life, fjr flrj'cnv
of no vocation on earth that is followed
by man that carries as muih satisfac
tion In every department ai the voca
tion of the farmer It is une of th%
most ancient of all vocitions followed
by mm dning away back as you might
say to the dawn of creation. And it
you will follow the history-Jof nations
from the very earliest period of which
we have any authentic account, you
will fiud those nations that were high
est in agriculture were the strongest
and were possessed of a higher grade of
civilization. And the same is true to
day. Tbe farmer feeds the world. And
as agriculture advances everything else
follows in its wake. More railroads
and (rreat steamships have to be built
to carry the products of the farmer to
the seaboard and to foreign parts. The
great Niagara Falls has been harnessed
up to furniBh power to change our great
crops ot raw products to merchantable
commodities. The jetties have been
built at the mouth of the great
Mississippi river to favor navigation by
deepening the river so as to let larger
boats coma up the river for the
crops of grain and cotton of the .far
mer. Tbe great rivers have been
bridged to help the railroads to do their
share of the work. Mountains have
been tunneled for the same purpose.
And now the stupenduous task has
been commenced of building the Pana
ma canal for the purpose of shortening
the haul of the farmers products to
foreign markets. With all this great
array of evidence on the side of agri
culture is it posrible to eay a farmer
could be anything but satisfied with his
cBoice of vocation in life. UuUf these
few reasons do not convince you that
we are satisfied with our vocation in
life como up to Pioneer farm in Eads
Grove some fair day in June when we
are getting about 25 Bwarms of bees
4*11?
...and sUfor an hour with us in the.
'apl'i'ry depaffmenrof our vocation, and"'
we will either convince yon we are In
love and satisfied with our vocation or
will cause you to hunt a bole and you
will waut to take the hole in after you
and fasten tbo door.

•jhan we pay more attention to the
breeding and preparation of our horses
for market?
I am alwaws glad to meet, and dis
cuss farm topics, with farmers any
time or place, as 1 always learn some
thing, and feel better after a uiscussion,
I like farm stock, and the better bred
they are, the better Islike them. And
1
am pleased to know that Iowa, our
state, stands at the head, for the num
ber and value of thoroughbred stock,
aid the value of all farm stock. In the
last live years the quality of horses in
Delaware County has gained very rap
idly, but we will have room for im
provement for years to come. There
are several things that have had a ten
dency to hold back horse Improvement
in Delaware county. Perhaps the
greatest of the drawbacks was the
Williams boom on trotting horses at
Independence, followed by tbe farmers'
craze for fast horses, and the breeding
for a few years of all classeB of mares
from 1700 pounds down to the Shetland
pony, to some sort of a roadster sire.
You all know the reBult! The country
was flooded with a lot of small, ill
tempered, now selling farm horses, that
were neither fast enough for good
roadsters, nor Urge enough for good
work horses. Next the bicycle came,
farmers grew careless with their breed
log, because they thought that the time
of Mr. horse was about up Then
there WOB a tendency of farmers to
keep selling ofT their best young mares
just because they thought there was
too much money tied up in one animal,
and they would argue that a cheaper
horse would do the work. About this
time tbe barbwire fence question had
to be discussed and looked into for it
was blemishing so many horpes that
something must be done about it, and
there was! It was substituted by the
woven wire, which makes the colt as
safe iu the horse pasture now, as they
used to be with boards or rails. .Barb
wire certaiuly did all they claimed for
it In the way of damaging horses. Aud
yet I believe it was a blessing to the
advancement of horses, because it was
tbe cause of many a fine brood mare
left on the farms that would otherwise
have been sold. The bicycle, like the
"old dog" has had its day and the horse
buBlnesB is as strong as ever. The
automobile, is too crazy a thing to in
fluence the horse market in any way.
People are learning what the farm,
and the market wants. Importing and
breeding companies are filling our
country with good horses and I will
predict that it will not be many years
before it will be with our horses aB it
is with-our cattle. That foreign coun
tries will be looking to the middle-west
for their models of perfection and we
will be exporters InBtead of importers
of horses. Tbe outlook for horses was
never brighter, nor the price higher
than today. Outside of a drlviog team
or driving horse tor farm use, we have
no use for anything on the farm but
1 .i i.i
Bome of the lust tireecs the draft

Clydesdale or Shire. .Nine out of ten

your large load3 to aiarltit. with pet-'
feet ease, and if you are clil .r t:rcii,
a boy or girl and wish to rid you uny,
for he does r.ot fed jonr v.eight. So I
will say if you wish more vork, more
horse and more money o--n ot your
farm horses, get the big d.-uft teilow
every time. The preparation of your
horse for market is just hi« rising, or
how he is brought up. I i, Li*-.. is'
just as true of a colt or a c»:r. Yon!

stall with the mother, so that the colt
can eat at the same time, let the colt

It will do you good to see how fast he

everyday handling of the little colt,
