LAFOLLETE FIGHTS HIS OPPONENTS

Hurls Gauntlet or Wisconsin State Republican Or- ' ganization. DEMANDS INVESTIGATION. SUSPICIONS OF FRAUD IN PRI MARY THINKS HIS POLITICAL SCALP WILL BE TAKEN TWO YEARS HENCE. Blair, Wis., Oct. 29. Senator La Follette has taken tip the gauntlet thrown down by the Stephenson men. now In control of the Republican or ganization- in Wisconsin, and has giv en the signal for what will probably be the greatest fight ever waged for rep- - resentative government. In a speech here, so replete with sensation that it is hard to decide which feature is of the greatest slg niflcance, the Senator demanded an investigation of the charges that money was improperly expended in the recent senatorial primary. He mentioned Senator Stephenson by name, and stated that every Repub lican candidate for the Legislature should be required to pledge himself to vote for an investigation of the pri mary before an election of a United States Senator takes place. But even of greater importance and significance was his dramatic picture of the fight that has been waged upon Speaker Herman L. Ekern; of the success of corporations in the primary In bringing about the nomination of Albert T. Twesme, and the independ ent fight that is now being made by Mr. Ekern for election to the Assembly. Mr. LaFollette showed clearly that he appreciated that the fight upon Ek ern is but part of a fight having for its ultimate object his own defeat for the Senatorship two years hence. The Senator quoted at length from the now famous Norwegian circular which was sent out before the primaries in the effort to defeat Ekern, Lenroot,Strange and Governor Davidson as a candidate for the Senatorship against himself two years hence. "But the validity of Mr. Stephen son's nomination has been challenged by the Democratic party in formal resolutions adopted as a part declara- . tlon in its party record and of the political history of the commonwealth," declared LaFollette. , "This action, formally taken in party convention and pressed in public discussion, raises an issue which can not, in honor, be Ignored. If true, it should set aside the result of the primary. . "I believe the Republican party and Mr. Stephenson, the successful candidate in the primary, should meet this charge with a demand for proof and should aid in every way to secure a thorough and impartial Investigation of every allegation .made. I believe that , every Republican candidate for the Legislature should pledge himself to his constituency before the election to favor such investigation and take such action as shall preserve the integrity of the ballot, and protect the good name of the state." In supporting Ekern, LaFollette is repudiating the primary law which he caused to be passed. While LaFollette was talking for the Independent candidate. Governor Davidson was campaigning for the regular nominee. Governor Davidson in his speeches 'denied the LaFollette charge that he Is now a candidate for LaFollette's seat in the Senate. He said that when the time came to elect a successor to LaFollette the party would take care of him. The LaFollette men take this as a threat. ECONOMY, IND. Economy, Ind.. Oct. 29. Walter D.

OR01APDI dHh BY F.E.TRIGG REGISTER R0CKrORD,IAJ CORRESPONDENCE SOLICITED Copyright. 1908. by F. E. Trigg. ThU matter must not be reprinted without special permission.) A PERENNIAL PROBLEM. For the farmer in the corn belt there is no problem which annually confronts him which is more important than that found in the saving of his 6eed for next year's crop. While it Is pertinent on April 1 to discuss methods for the careful testing of seed corn, the accepted time for securing it is between the 1st and the 15th of October. In tbe northern part of the corn belt, where early maturity is an Important matter, it is well to select the ears in tended for seed during the month of September, when the earliest maturing corn can be selected.' In the selection of the seed ears should be chosen which are filled well at butt and tip, whose kernels are of medium size, of as good depth as early maturity will permit and even rows. While the old fashioned way of stripping back tbe husks and tying two ears together is good, an even better way is to use strong twine, tying each ear around the middle and putting them crisscross to each until a good string of ears has been secured. Another method is to slip the butts of the ears on to long finishing nails driven through wide inch boards, which may be fastened together conveniently as a sort of rack. The early securing of the seed corn is imperative in order that It may become thoroughly dry before the heavy freezes in November. If there is moisture in tbe cob when the hard freeze comes the seed is done for, and it cannot be resurrected by any kind of a test. Now and then there is a season when corn will cure and dry on the stalk, but this is exceptional. When thoroughly seasoned the seed should be stored in a dry place, preferably where it does not freeze, but this is not essential provided there is no moisture in it. When seed is secured in the above manner and then carefully tested next March or April a good stand of corn would seem to be assured. WHEN BUTTER FAILS TO COME. A reader of these notes has asked why the cream at some times is hard to churn while at others it is comparatively easy. Tbe trouble may generally be ascribed to unripe cream or cream that has become too sour. Ripening of cream is performed by the lactic acid ferment. At this time of the year when the weather is cool and all during tbe winter cream may remain in a jar in a cool place for several days and even for more than a week without becoming ripe enough to churn in the usual length of time. For several hours before churning the cream should be set near the stove so that it will become warm enough for the proper ferments to make it ripe. If this falls to ripen cream It Is then necessary to place therein a little starter. By starter is meant a little sour milk which has soured in a clean vessel and In a room where there are no objectionable odors or foul odors of any kind, no matter how small. Souring may be caused by one of two fermentsthe proper kind or the kind which makes putrid acid. If the cream ripens because of the souring caused by the latter kind then the butter will be unfit for food because of these objectionable and unhealthy germs. Many times such cream will not make butter, no matter how long it is churned. If sour milk which came from filthy quarters or from vessels which have not been kept as clean as they should or In a room which is filled with objectionable odors the rapid development of these germs will take place in the cream which is ripening, and the butter will be very inferior, if it will make butter at all. The best plan to make a starter Is to take a little skimmllk and set It near the fire In a perfectly clean room, and as soon as it is sour place It in the cream. Then set the Jar or vessel containing tbe cream near the fire and keep it warm till it has sufficiently ripened. "MIRACLE" WHEAT. The "miracle" or Alaska wheat, reputed to have yielded for an Idaho farmer at the rate of 222 bushels per acre, had a brief but brilliant course. Skepticism was expressed in many quarters and voiced in these notes respecting the reliability of the claims made for this remarkable wheat These doubts have been verified by an authentic Investigation 'by Professor Elliott, head of the agricultural . department of the Washington State college. After a careful inspection of the fields of wheat raised by this man Adams, who foisted this mare's nest on the public. Professor Elliott reports that instead of yielding 222 bushels per acre wheat In these fields will not yield more than thirty -five bushels to the acre and that Instead of being No. 1 hard, as claimed, It Is so soft as to be almost worthless. Added to this, several other varieties are mixed In with it A lamentable thing about this is that many bought some of the wheat for seed at $15 to $20 per bushel. Land that Is tiled is easily increased In value per acre the cost of putting In the improvement, while in many cases the practical value of land so treated Is nearly doubled. The housewife can soon rid her cupboards of mice if she win set two or three of the little guillotine, or terror," traps, while a larger size made on tbe same principle is equally deadly for the rats. The close connection between moisture and blight was nicely shown this IW.tn apojtatp patch which the writer

Ia spite 'of the rapid . mnltfp'Ucatlon of . automobiles, a good horse never brought more than be. does at the present time. , The present . season - it has been a standoff as between autos and manure spreaders in the matter of the toll in human life which they have elaoted, with the advantage, if any, in favor of the auto. The fellow who all summer tended and is this fall busking half a stand of corn would do well not to charge it all to ill luck or lay it off on Providence, but admit that it is the legitimate result of carelessness and lack of foresight on his own part. It is apparently much easier for the fairly Intelligent man to become a competent chauffeur than a first class farm band, which only goes to show ( that man needs to be in a position of daring, excitement and danger to spur him oa to accomplish his best workIt is getting tima to think of your bulbs for winter blooming. It Is well to iuform oneself somewhat as to their peculiar needs before starting in too heavily. One who .has experience in producing beautiful flowers from his bulbs utilized an old kitchen sink for a window garden, attaching u piece of pipe to tbe sink so as to effect a better drainage. The department of agriculture at Washington has introduced a type of alfalfa from Peru which is said to grow more rapidly than the ordinary kinds, starts earlier in the spring, grows later in the autumn and will stand more cold. If.lt will do what is i claimed for it. Its introduction Into the northern states would seem to be a matter of but a short time. In its relation to doing away with the opium business in China the conscience of the English government is seared by the fact that it realizes annually from its monopoly in this drug trade the sum of $18.XK).000. China seems to be trying to bols'er up, English conscience by the Issuance of imperial decrees which require the gradual breaking off of the opium habit by her subjects within a period of ten years. In buying any article of furniture, a dress or suit of clothes there are three t things which should lie kept In mind 1 satisfaction during use, durability and price. Many a purchaser allows the last consideration to be the determining-one, ignoring the two other points involved. He thus may be actually paylug a higher relative price than he would (or an article of better quality costing a half or again as much. i Seven carloads of addled eggs were recently seized at Detroit, Mich., and held by iButhortly of the federal pure food commissioner. Inquiry developed the fact that they had been bought up in different states and were intended for use In the manufacture of fancy cookies and crackers. Folks have been wondering for some time past what be- ' comes of the myriad bad eggs that are sent to market, and the above seizure gives an inkling. There is probably no single phase of farm industry that is given so little attention as that of the raising of poultry, and yet the poultry and egg business of the country for 1907 surpassed in total value all tbe wheat produced and was a close second to the value of the entire cotton crop. Were the attention devoted to poultry on the farm equal to that now given to the raising of horses, cattle, sheep and bogs It is quite likely that the returns from this Industry would quickly pass tbe billion dollar mark. Several close observers of bird life in the vicinity In which the writer lives have had their attention drawn to tbe fact that during the interval from July 35 to Sept. 1 the robins, which usually are very plentiful and are often seen by dozens under lawn sprays, were strangely missUig. Whether they went to localities where there had been more abundant rainfall or where they found insect life more abundant it ! would be difficult to say. Sept 1 finds them back again in large numbers, and they are as welcome as they were AprU 1. In an address which Secretary Wilson of the department of agriculture recently made at the Iowa state fair he presented statistics which showed that in spite of a steady and rapid depletion of the soil in many sections of the country the average crop yield for the past ten years was greater in the case of most cereals than it was In the decade between 1860 and 1870. which seems to mean that the Inauguration. of

tt tm scientific 'methods.' Including crop rotation, has more than counterbalanced the disadvantage of an extensive depletion of original soil fertility. However much it may be desired, the growing of present types of alfalfa In the northern states Is practically oat of the question, this because of unfavorable moisture, temperature and possibly soil conditions. Since this la true the next best thing to take Irs place in clover, mammoth and medium red for the drier lands and alsike for the lower lands. Tbe service which the clovers render as soli renovators Is identical with that performed by alfalfa. Clover seed is high in price, but the best farmers realize that the benefit derived from it is more than worth the price. CENTER VI LLE. IND. Centerville, Oct. 29.
