The Hon. Charles B. Landis, who, once upon a time, remarked that there are “all sorts of jobs for all sorts of men,” has found his. He Is making speeches for the ship subsidy grab. President Taft in his Journeyings (at public expense) Is coming out strong for the old ship subsidy grab. Anyone who can defend the Payne-Aldrich-Cannon tariff law Is naturally expected to be for the subsidy grabWhy any Republican tariff reformer should hang on to the Republican party until he is kicked out by President Taft or anybody else, passes understanding. Most of them, It can be said to their credit, are going out without waiting to be kicked. There is no particular objection to Mr. Taft reading men out of the Republican party because they are not satisfied with the Payne-Aldrich-Cannon tartff law or for any reason. But Ills right to travel over the country at public expense to do it is not conceded. According to Senator LaFollette of Wisconsin, a brother "insurgent,” Senator Beveridge, is no longer a “regular” Republican. So President Taft told some time ago. All this should make the old guard that stood true to the Hon. Charles Warren Fairbanks feel like weeping. But they won’t. A week or two ago the Indianapolis Star, Republican state organ, editorially addressing the leaders of the Anti-Saloon League, called a halt on further county option elections. Since then the league has announced that It will not hold elections In the remaining debatable counties. From this it must appear, even to the casual observer, that the tie bound during the strenuous days of the 1908 campaign still bines. But the same paper takes pains to offer another suggestion to its old allies and that is that if the law cannot be enforced in the counties now "dry,” it will be evidence that “legislation has gone forward more rupldly than It can be enforced.” What Is behind All this?

IT WON’T WORK.

The Republican politicians of Iniana—that class of them who are attempting to guide their party through the morass into which their factional quarrels and President Taft have cast them—have hit upon the brilliant idea of trying to make it appear that the Democrats are quarreling among themselves. The Indianapolis Star, Republican state organ, claims to have discovered a condition of warfare among leading Democrats over two things, vis., how the state committee shall be organized next January, and what shall be said in the next state platform on the liquor question. A publication of this kind has only one object and that is to distract attention from the Republican

split and the causes which led to it It is doubtless true that, when the time comes, there will be some spirited contests for positions on the state committee, but they will merely be friendly rivalries for the honor of serving the party In a position of great responsibility. It is doubtless true, also, that there will be differences of opinion aa to subsidiary platform declarations. There always are such minor differences. But the Democrats of Indiana, now 1 as heretofore, are in perfect accord upon Democratic principles and issues. There Is not the slightest reason for doubting that when the Democratic party is in the field stripped for a fight it will present an unbroken front to a disorganized and discouraged opponent. No Republican newspaper or politician should waste time thinking that the public can be blinded to the Republican beam by any amount of talk about a mythical Democratic mote. It won’t work. *

MORE BOND ISSUES.

President Taft has announced that he will ask congress at its next session to permit the secretary of the interior to issue $10,000,000 of bonds to complete the irrigation projects now under way. It is said that it will take $100,000,000 to complete the work now started, but doubtless Mr. Taft thinks it will not do, at this time, in view of his statement about cutting down expenses, to tell the public about It. But .according to a Washington dispatch there is going to be a big demand for other bond issues. The dispatch says: The request for an Irrigation bond issue of $10,000,000 or more is not the only request of the sort that will be made of congress at the coming session. The rivers and harbors congress is coming along with more than a request—a demand —for a bond issue of $50,000,000 a year for river and harbor improvementsAnother organization which is putting out a propangada in favor of the reclamation of the swamp lands of the country also intends to ask for a bond issue, if the government proposes to raise money in that way for the reclamation of arid lands, or for the improvement of rivers and harbors. These new demands on the treasury lead observers here to wonder what has become of that much talked of movement to reduce government expenses.

GORE ANSWERS PRES. TAFT.

Senator Calls President’s Tour “Comedy of Errors” and Predicts Defeat as the Probable Result. Oklahoma City, Okla., October 19. —“The enemies of good government everywhere will approve the President’s denunciation of our Constitution. It must be opposed by all who favor special privileges, gifts and graft to the few at the expense of many, and by all who believe that the jeweled hand of greed should be licensed to pick the threadbare pockets of need.” This is the reply of United tSates Senator Gore to President Taft’s criticism that the Constitution of Oklahoma is a “zoological garden of cranks.” Continuing. Senator Gore said: ‘ The present tour of the President has been a comedy of errors—a tragedy of blunders—ever since the curtain went up, -and probably will be until the curtain conies down. “The rules of the senate forbid any senator to make a disrespectful allusion to any state- This rule is the dictate of common sense and common decency, as well r.s patriotism, and should be observed, even if it were not an expressed requirement.

“It would seem to be a wise precedent to be observed of all the officials of the government, whether legislative, judicial or executive. The influence ancf prestige of thef* President always should be used for the upbuilding of every state, and never should be abused to the disparagement of any state. “I regret the President so far forgot both his dignity and duty as to assail the fundamental law of a sovereign state over whose destiny he has been called temporarily to preside. It seems to me his denunciation was as undignified as It was undeserved, and as unnecessary as It was unavailing. “I was opposed to appropriating $25,000 to the President to carry on this crusade against progress and the progressive Republicans and, it seems, against the Constitution of my own state, and in behalf of ship subsidies for the building up of a steamship trust, and a central bank In behalf of the mightiest and most dangerous trust In the land. “I have reversed rpy views. The money has been well Invested. It probably will lead to the defeat of Mr. Taft by Roosevelt, La Follette, Cummins or some ether progressive Republican, or else by a Democrat. As between Roosevelt and Taft, I confess that I prefer the former- If Roosevelt did not sway, he did not serve Aldrich and Cannon.”

IDEAS ABOUT HAY. Increase In Yield and How to Improve Crept. The average yield of hay In the United States from 1865 to 1870 was 1.28 tons per acre. This yield was exceeded but three times during the forty years from 1865 to 1905. The aver age yield for the third five year period ending with 1880, was 1.29 tons; that of the seventh five year period was 1.35 tons, and that for the last five years was 1.47 tons per acre. The average yield for the last period shows an increase of 0.19 ton over that for the first period and an increase of 0.21 ton over the average yield for forty years, which is 1.26 tons per acre. The average yield per acre In the ten leading timothy hay producing states for forty years varies little from that for the entire United States. There is a slight difference during the first

LOADING HAY BY HAND.

twenty-five years, when the yield was above that for the United States. The yield during the last fifteen years was nearly the same for both. The feeding value of hay is often lowered when It Is stacked out In the open. Considerable hay Is often entirely spoiled so that It Is unfit for feeding. The amount of spoiled and damaged hay depends upon the time the stack stands and upon the method of stacking. In Virginia a six to eight ton stack of timothy hay, after It has gone through the sweat, or, In three or four weeks, will have from 300 to 600 pounds of damaged hay. Most of this will be on the top and only a small portion on the sides and the bottom.

The market value of hay Is frequently lowered because this stained hay is worked Into the bales. It may happen that the spoiled hay will be no more tllan a couple of handfuls, which amount Is really insignificant, but the Inspector cannot tell how much the bale contains, so he is forced to grade It one or two grades lower. This causes quite a loss to those who sell hay. In lowa and surrounding states considerable hay is stacked in the field, and the loss due to stacking is not thought to be enough to warrant the building of a barn for hay only. The most important thing In determining the value of hay is payability, for if it is not relished not enough will be eaten to furnish much nourishment to the animal. When hay is exposed in the field too long In the hot sun or Is subject to rain Its palatablllty will be lessened, which In turn lowers its market and feeding value. Low grade hay Is not as palatable nor does It contain as much nourishment as the better grades. In general there is little if any profit In growing and selling low grade hay, especially that made from the grasses, for the loss of fertilizing value or crop producing power of the land amounts

GOOD AND BAD STACKS.

to more thuu the net profit after the cost of curing, baling, etc., is deducted. The price of hay land Is steadily rising in the tame hay section, and In order to make a fair profit on the value of the laud it will be necessary for the grower to practice the best methods of culture, curing, baling and selling. Before there can be any material change In the quality of hay sent to the market it -will be necessary for farmers to learn the grades of hay, for it is Impossible to grow choice hay if the producer does not know what constitutes this grade. Much of the heavy work in loading hay can be saved by using « hay loader. Take pains to stack well. Note the difference between the stacks in the illustration. Extra Tillage. Probably no operation on the farm pays so well on the Investment as the extra tillage requisite to secure ideal conditions. Clods repel the tiny roots, and vacancies between carry neither ready moisture nor food. Sometimes, especially in dry seasons, the difference In yield between a cloddy soil and one open, mellow, with available food easy to reach and moisture at will, approaches 100 per cent.
