Chance for Taft's Economy.

The agreement between the house •nd senate conferences on the general service ''’pension bill will add about $2 ,000,000 a year to the government’s expenditures for pensions. If the bill passes Mr.'Taff will never have a better’ opportunity to prove his sincerity in the policy of economy. A ringring veto would be the best means of putting to shame the politicians iof both parties .who seek to use the federal treasury for campaign purposes. It would also show that Mr. Taft Is not “feeble” and “a man of straw."

PARTY’S POWER AT END

BREAKUP OF REPUBLICAN ORGANIZATION IS APPARENT. 'ts Only Bond Fast Approaching Dissolution With the Personal Quarrel Between President Taft and Tneodore Roosevelt. ' J The Republican p. rty is going to pieces because the only bond that has held it together for yea.rs past has lost to power over the people. That bond s the protective tariff Republi anism’s two great leaders ire now -open-1 Vat war. They accuse sac’n other of many wrougs but in ivery case the charge has to do with ae tariff or its beneficiaries; Both wings dr ; lie party are in fuil flight from 'he or s tariff and trust record aid the baishest things that Mr. Tait and Mra Roosevelt can gay as each ot her are those trial allege undue subserviency to the .grasping bosses of business land politics. Some sueb end as this is inevitable in the case-of ever? political party that has no aim bir. ; Innder. In all of Republicanism s book keeping for 20 years there has been no entry of a moral idea Its sole purpose has been the enrichment of a class at the expense of another class., Its sentiments are all sordid. Its battle cries are all of greed

Mr: Taft confesses the hopelessness of further monopolistic tariffs by denouncing the present schedules and their authors and promising relief as soon as the tariff board shall have completed ifiS. investigations. Mr Roosevelt confesses the worthlessness of the trust-building tariff for campaign purposes hereafter by seeking a third term- on other and wry remote issues, There were a few presidencies in the bloody shirt There have been several presidencies in the tariff, but Republicans everywhere agree that there will be nn more. !" A party actuated by high ideals I could not Ipossibly develop a situation such as that which has led to the violent personal quarrel between Mr. 'Taft and Mr. Roosevelt. They have failed apart because the various beneficiaries of favoring laws have separated into jealous and warring groups Some of these gluttonous interests favor one man Some of them favor i the other. In the exposmes now in progress we have proof of guilt on all : sides and revelations of the truth that cannot fail to startle the country. The break between Mr. Taft and Mr. Roosevelt is more than a rupture be- | t\\een two men. ft signifies that the two w.ngs of the Republican party are turning states evidence against each , other. Neither side has any defense |to offer for the party as such. Both admit every, count in the indictment of that organization as presented by Democrats, Th»-re is no bode of savI ing the pany. for it is conceded that pt is . not worth, sz’ ing, The present ( Republ.can watchwoc-u is "Everv man ;-dr hints,e'f.’”—St. Louis Republic.

Roosevelt’s Only Support.

Suppose the delegates tb the Republican convention in Chicago should go -stalk mad and nominate Theodore Roosevelt for a third term It would be impossible for the leading Republican journals of the country to deny themselves and swallow themselves by giving him support. It would be equally impossible to get the support of the sober Republican electorate who still swear by the Constitution and the flag. Only the yellows would follow In the trail of the Claimant And Per kins.

REPUBLICAN PARTY IN PANIC

True Reason for Support Which ExPresident Roosevelt Is Receiving in Many States. Colonel Roosevelt’s managers have a strange misconception of the reasons why the Republicans of certain states rush to the support of the ex-president . They think the movement shows supreme confidence ‘in his election if nominated, but we cannot agree with them. The fact is that the Republican party is in a panic. It is running from itself, from its record and from its leaders. It is crazy with fear. It dare not make a stand on anything that it has said or done for 20 years past. I Mr. Taft Is in disfavor becaqie, as the responsible leader of the 'organization, he is forced to defend its performances. Mr Roosevelt is favored because at a time of rout and disaster he appears with a lot of novel remedies for a situation that all concerned, if in a normal state _of mind would know Is hopeless. Both are prophets of despair. One is courageous and consistent. The other is timid and shifty

Viewed calmly from the Democratic position the condition of Republican ism will be desperate in any event. Neither Tait nor Roosevelt nor a dark horse has a ghost of a show. The part y is in fragments. The two arch! teds of its ruin are fighting over the remains. As in every other stampede some people stand by the man- who sticks to his post and others rush off madly under the leadership of a man who holds out a fantastic hope of betterment.: . . FV.

It will not be possible to bring these ents together again. They' have los -faith in each other and in them selves? They do not expect to elect a preside:.’ thi. year. They are running only with the idea that they mayescape the judgment.

Old Cry of “T. R.”

One reason given by Mr. Roosevelt for bls recantation off opinion in the matter of Canadian reciprocity Is that the agreement "carried-. Indefensible action on paper.” The reference is to the provision placing wood pulp and printing paper on the free list. This provlsloh, which, by the way, Is the only part of the reciprocity act that went Into effect and remains Ip effect, scarcely needs to be defended. It is “Indefensible” only in the view of the Paper Trust. The conclusion is near that this must be one of T. R.’s “good" trusts, to, assail or otherwise displease which is not only "Indefensible,” but is a “crooked deal” or something like that.

Universal Statesman.

"I have a right to the support ot every heir to the Jacksonian Democracy.” said Mr Roosevelt In his speech at Greensboro, N. C. A modest and characteristic claim. In the north Mr. Roosevelt Is Abraham Lincoln. In the south he Is Andrew Jackson, except when he is George Washington or Thomas Jefferson or John Marshall. He is the Republican party and the Democratic j arty arid the Prohibition party and the SoclalLt-Ixrbor party, and all other parties 'hat may hereafter be organized. My policies are ail policies that attract votes. . 1

Whilst Tass and Teddy are giving each other hot stuff the good people of the United States are doing some cool choose another Republican president in the next 50 years the country would be better off.

Not Guilty.

“It Is a bad trait to bite the hand that feeds you.”—Theodore Roosevelt at Worcester. “The great Morgan interests which have been so friendly to us” chn testify that Mr. Roosevelt' has rever de veloped this bad trait.

What political effect is all this to have? How can the Republican party recover from the fatal results of this bitter contest? The situation Is without example in our political history.— New York Evening Post.

The Way of it.

Surgeon—-I was very much cut up over the charges you made against me about that operation. Patient—You wereii’t half as much cut up as I was, doctor.

Getting Up.

“They're getting up in the .world.” “Yec, indeed. They've got to the point now where they consider it necessary to hire a caterer every time they give a party.” 1

A Jawing Match.

Sa"u two famous bad men come together during mV trip west.” “Both killed?” “Nobody killed: You can't talk a man to death.”

Wisdom of the Wise.

"What,” queried the youth, “is the best way to praise a woman ?” i “By speaking |ll of her rival.” answered the home grown philosopher.

Modernism.

The Critlc-k-My dear, just fancy having your portrait painted In your car. Why, a motor ear goes out of fashion in a single year!

POULTRY

CRATE TO FATTEN POULTRY Work Should Be Done Four Weeks Before Killed to Get Right Proportion of Fat and Lean. Fowls should be fattened at least four weeks before they are killed, not to make them as fat as possible, but to give them the right proportion of fat and lean to make the fowls fat and juicy when cooked. The fattening-crate shown herewith is 6 feet long, 16 inches wide, 18 inches high and divided into three equal

sized compartments, each holding from four to six birds, as the case may be. Jno slats ,or laths are 114 inches wide, placed one and a half inches apart at the ends, sides and tops of the crate, but those in front are placed vertically two inches apart. Ihe floor of the crate is made of slats laid' lengthwise, one inch apart, leaving a one-inch space on either side between the first lath and the sides of the crate. The crate should stand on short legs or trestles, to •allow convenience in cleaning. The trough is made the-full length of the crate and should be three or four inches deep. It is supported at either end on notched boards, in order that it may be taken away when the coops are cleaned.

Never leave the feed before the chickens more than 15 minutes, and feed very little at the start, gradually increasing the ainount until the end of the week they are getting all they can eat three times a day. Some rations for fattening are given below: Equal parts by weight of finely ground corn, oats and shorts, mixed with sour skimmed milk. Same ration, except substitute ground barley for the corn. Finely ground oats mixed with skimmed milk. Equal parts of finely ground oats, corn and low-grade flour. If beefscraps are used, 15 per cent, is the best propoition.

LEGHORNS ARE BEST LAYERS

None Other Found So Strong and Hardy and Consequently Easy for Poultrymen to Raise. -- D ■ ' •. Leghorns live and are profitable longer than other breeds. Large hens put on fat after the first year and do not lay so well afterward. Leghorns lay well until four or five years old and a Leghorn on free range will never get fat enough to hinder her laying. Like all other fowls they are at their best during the first and second years of their lives, but as long as a Leghorn hen looks bright and thrifty she will lay profitably, says a writer in an exchange. This in a great measure offsets the fact that their bodies are too small to sell well as dressed poultry, however the buyers here pay as much per pound for them as for any. They are accused of not laying as well during the winter as the larger hens. If the houses are cold enough to frost the combs of the singlecombed varieties they will not lay until their combs are healed. They hard-

ly ought to be expected to, and rbsecombed varieties do better on this account, but given comfortable quarters I have no trouble In getting them to lay In ’ winter. Last December was a very cold month here, the temperature being below zero nearly every morning during the month and some mornings more than 20 below. I had yearling hens laying, also pullets hatched In June that had been laying since September 1.. Other small breeds that I have tried fill all these points except one. t have found none other so strong add hardy and consequently easy to raise, and so take them all in all, the Leghorn suits me for an all-around farmer’s fowl better than anything tfcat I have ever tried.
