THE BICHMOD PALLADIUM AND StTKLEUKAM, TUESDAY, bEFT. 3, ldla.
UTTAGK MADE ON ADMINISTRATION BY SEN. SHERMAN . . . ?oltics in Control Under Mask of War Power, Illinois Republican Charges. (By Associated Press) WASHINGTON, Sept. 3. In a fcngthy prepared address on what he sailed "unofficial and personal govsrnment." Senator sherman of Illinois. Republican, made a scathing attack tn the senate today on President Willon and his administration and, particularly Col. E. M. House, the presilent's personal friend and adviser. With ironical references to the president's recent statement that politics Is adjourned, the senator asserted that, having elected the president "almost single handed" Col. House and coterie of Texas politicians ."are in the saddle and they are doing politics la the same old way." - - Under pretense of war powers, he Bald, the administration is placing control of the country In the hands of a few politicians and labor leaders, to be used relentlessly for the election of party candidates now and a president in 1920. Baker Is Denounced. Secretary Baker was referred to as "one who thinks of the war as three thousand miles away, talks glibly of Quantity production of combat airplanes, delays three months the draft law amendment of 1918, opposes universal military training, and says Washington's soldiers at Valley Forge were drunkards and chicken thieves, only to be declared by executive proclamation to be the moat capable official that distinguished functionary every knew." Regarding Secretary of Commerce Hedfleld, Senator Sherman said he had made "some sparkling contributions to trade" Including the "shocking information that high cost of living was caused by too many delivery wagons, ar epic on fish and clams along with a sonnet or two on sheep killing dogs.
Former Secretary Bryan, the sena- j tor declared, resigned when he had "played second fiddle long enough and 'his power for harm had waned.' " "Politics began there and it's never adjourned since in domestic affairs." Bald Mr. Sherman. "Was there ever a more sordid revelation of selfish, time-serving politics with the first executive office next only to the president shuffled about as special envoy to suit partisan ends?" In criticizing Col. House, Senator Sherman said as personal representative envoy of the president while abroad he "exercised unofficial and usurped powers of government" and "hla gratuitous advice to settle the U-boat dispute provoked the derision of Germany and the impatience of the allies." Political Ownership. Declaring the administration seeks even to dictate Republican candidates In Republican states, the senator said "Ford is to be made senator from Michigan by executive order." Denouncing what he described as socialistic plans of "a coterie of politicinns gilded and plated by a group of theorizlne. intolerant intellectuals," Senator Sherman continued: "Government control is a mere name. As now exercised by this administration, It is the threshhold of permanent political ownership and operation. "On all questions related to labor, Gornpers Is practically president. Burleson controls the physical agencies for communication of thought and McAdoo the railways' and country's finances. Strip off the mask of alleged government ownership and see behind it the revealed political ownership and control of Gonipers, Burleson and McAdoo for partisan purposes, to be used relentlessly to elect party candidates now aid in 1920 a president. "Politics adjourned. Worse, more rampant, rancorous, partisan politics never abused the patriotism and generous confidence of a great nation. Again where the clandestine partisan politics of this administration, hidden under the thick clouds of war, I raise my voice seasonably in remonstrance." Canadian Railroaders Get Wage Increase (Br Associated Presm MONTREAL, Sept. 3. Wage increases aggregating $15,000,000 annually will be granted to 30,000 men in railroad shops throughout Canada, affecting all the railroads in the dominion, under the agreement pronounced here today. The award is the same as that given to railway employes in the United States by Director General McAdoo.

Head Wbrk in Silo Time Will Save Delays Save Labor and Money BrP.G. HOLDEN
THERE Is no task In the year's farm work that will pay more for planning and preparation than filling the silo. The cost of silage on some farms Is almost doubled because of poor filling equipment and lack of headwftrk in planning and carrying on the work of filling.' The good farmer looks forward to filling the silo in the least possible time, knowing that it takes quite a force of both man and horse power, and that he cannot afford to have any part of the force Idle during any part of the silo filling. The causes for delays are : A poor cutter, uncertain power, carelessness, not enough men and teams. It Is surely an aggravation to have a force of 12 or 15 men and several teams idle while the cutter or engine Is being patched. It is cheaper by far to have a first class cutter and engine and be

Have Everything Ready Before Beginning to Fill the Silo. Accidents result from carelessness, from things getting out of repair. Have a supply of fuel and lubrication handy. Replenish the work box with nails, have the wrenches, hatchet, ax and mattock handy. It's easier to do this before the rush is on. Have plenty of men and teams. Remember It's poor economy to save on a mnn or two and an extra team and thereby cause the whole outfit delays. Get the silo filling force organized, have the teams load so that they come to the cutter one at a time and at the right time. Do not have them all loading in the field at once and then all waiting to unload. This means the cutter must wait part of the time. How to Handle Silage. Have low, flat topped wagons, so the silage corn will slip off easily. Don't have anything about the wagon to catch or hinder the unloading. Have a special way to unload. The best way is to begin at each end of the wagon and load toward center; then when unloading begin at center and work toward the ends. Two men in this way can unload at the same wagon. Arrange cutter low, so that the corn can be unloaded by a man standing on the ground. This will enable him to pull the corn off the wagon into the cutter without lifting or throwing it. Tilt the wagon so the top of the rack will slope toward the cutter, thus making unloading easier. This can be done by digging holes for the wheels on the side of the wagon next the cutter. All these little things help. Always have a distributor on the pipe so tht 6ilag can be easily spread all over the silo. Put an industrious man in the 6ilo, one who can be depended upon to tramp and evenly spread the silage. SAFE FARMING (I. H. O 21
Learn Profitable Farming Fifty-Five Arkansas Men Profit by Northern Methods B P. C. HOLDEN
E COME to learn your way of profitable farming." That was the slogan of 65 of the leading farmers, bankers and other business men of Arkansas, who recently made a tour of the dairy and live stock sections of Wisconsin, Iowa and Missouri
for the purpose of observing the methods employed by the Northern farmer and stock grower. The party was headed by Governor C. II. Brough and the tour lasted ten days. It was not a trip to exploit Arkansas ; its purpose was to gain Information that would be of value to the farmers and business men of Arkansas. It was not a pleasure trip ; it was a business trip a trip during which everybody worked Lard. Arkansas Is Awakened. For years Arkansas devoted the greater part of her lands and energy to cotton production. But in 1914, through the efforts of the Chamber of Commerce of Little Rock, a monster diversified farming campaign was conducted, .1.324 meetings being held in 35 days in 49 counties. During the campaign the people were. Impressed with the importance of feeding themselves, of raising cattle, hogs and poultry, of growing more grain and forage crops, of having a garden for every home. Since then Arkansas has made a great advance In both 'agricultural and business prosperity. The farmers and business men were so greatly encouraged by what they accomplished in four years that they are anxious to make a still greater advancement. Committees were appointed that they might better study the various branches of safe farming, such as dairy cattle, beef cattle, hogs, sheep and dogs, buildings, roads, schools, home conveniences, etc. The reports of these committees will be printed for distribution in Arkansas and will be of immense value to that state. Means Much to State. Without question the tour of these earnest men will have a far-reaching effect upon the future upbuilding of Arkansas. It will arouse a greater statewide interest In better farming methods, better dairying and better live stock. The making of life more pleasant, the creation o more fertile farms, the building of happier communities, are the things Arkansas Is learning to do, and with many natural resources, unsurpassed by any state, she promises to eventually gain an important place among the agriculfural, dairy and live stock states of the Union. If the people of other states would appoint committees to visit neighboring communities to learn what they are doing, to see the real things that are being done, and take the Information thus obtained back to the people at home, they could gain much profit, inspiration and helD.
TWELVE SELECTS LEAVE FOR SERVICE Twelve registrants who were called for limited service Saturday, left Tuesday morning at 10:55 o'clock on the Chicago train for Rockford, Illinois. The group was in charge of Howard Schneider. One member of the squad was in Michigan when he received the call and barely had time to arrive for the appointed hour. Since the men only received their summons Saturday evening, several had to leave without arranging their business matters, as Sunday and Monday were holidays. The group included Howard Schneider, Horatio N. Land, Walter Bymaster, Jesse N. Griffith, Walter G. Cronin, Harry J. Wuenter, Walter H. Wil liams, Howard E. Jones' Joseph Adams Ebeling, Mallen Mills, Robert I Sayler and Hobart L. Slayer.
