of the World That which the great body of men feel and desire that is the thing which is going to be done sooner or later Sentiment is not a thing to be sneered at It is to be regulated and limited to its proper sphere We must distinguish between true and false sympathy and sentiment We must believe that it is a social func tion to widen sympathy I am becoming more and more charitable to the unscientific idealists who inter est themselves in these subjects more and more patient toward the negative critics of society because all of these bring to the knowledge of the public the abuses that must be corrected constantly making the public conscience more sensitive People cannot sympathize with things which they have not touched It is marvelous to see how the atti broughtintoery That is the service which is done by friendly visiting by the so cial settlements by all things that enlist the sympathy ofa larger and larger number of persons It is only after we know what we want that there is

has a desire to be classed as a sporty man and a high flyer A neighbor riding with him to work in the car made a commonplace remark about the change of the fash ions with the advent of spring- Ycs sighed Smith this con founded fashion business sure makes a dent in ones pocketbook Now I dare say and he paused figuring how high he dare go I suppose I have spent 250 this spring for new gowns and hats and stockings and that sort of thing Smith intended the neighbor to think he had been liberal to his wife and the neighbor did thinkso But unfortunately the neighbor told his wife and the wife told Mrs Smith It so happened that Smith had cut down his wifes allowance for spring gewgaws because of the increased cost of living and the night after the neighbors wife had visited her she had a

long run as a breeding and trotting point Such has been the history of every trotting plant that has been induced to help the gamblers lby giving running meetings Far front being the Sportof Kings such running meetings deteriorate into nothing more or less than a gambling machine little different from roulette or the paddle wheel They do not tend to promote any legitimate phase of the horse industry but simply afford means for bookmakers and poolrooms to continue their business under cover in most cities and a menace to good citizenship wherever they are permitted For instance the gamblers make arrangements with the owners or managers of a racing plant to give a running meeting Said managers are either guaranteed certain sum aside from gate receipts or any other source of income or a percentage of the money taken in by the various pool rooms in various parts of the country so that it is nucinch the association will make money regardless of any localsupport The reports of the meeting now running at llusko- ii gee are published in detail in the Metropolitan daily newspapers and in fact in the sporting columns of papers all over the country Why SoleInnd simply for the

heifer calves with no thought as to where they will draw their future supply of dairy cows The few that have been saved are not of the quality they should be on account of their having run with the general1 herd of calves eating those grains and roughages that develop bone muscular tissue and fat instead of be ing fed witha view to turning their to milkproduction These facts account in large measure for the scarcity and sky high prices of good dairy cows Indeed they are much higher than the profits from their products will justify Many old or infirm cows are growing practically worthless there nre but few choice heifers to take their places and the result is high priced cows which cannot be avoided until this is sup plied or the price of cream drops until wo are forced to keep only a sufficient of cows to pro duceI milk and butter for family useOur only hope of adjusting these so there will be aII reasonable probe realized from the maintenance of these highnriced cows is to select

still a greater per cent of profit to be realized in raising high rllde heifer calves until they are ready for breeding purposes than there is in the steers for the markets since the heifers will eat

About Silos Cornbeltstockfarmers can much better afford silos than to forego their use even although it be necessary to borrow the money to cover their cost Silos are a form of insurance protecting their owners against drouth tnIthits grassless pastures insuring the uaymentof nutritious palatable food upon demand to live stock conserving in digestible form practically the entire corn plant and warranting the cash sale of hay and grain when prices lire particularly attractive It is a wonderful grip that silos give their owners on the dif1cut situations that arise in unfavorable seasons Thty should bo considered not as minor conveniences 1101 yet as worth having only when a peculiar set of conditions exist They are economically indispensable to stock farthing and dairying wherever corn grows The kind size and form of silo are points to be carefully studied in relation to conditions There is 110 silo for which strong claims cannot truthfully be made Dura rabiljty and airtightness are the uppermost values to be sought Some writers have created the impression that the time at which corn is in the best condition for siloing is very brief and that the art of making silage is dilliciilt Such unwarranted hairsplitting has deterred many farmers from building silos It does not require a scientist a particular set of fa vorable conditions and a psycho logical moment to guarantee sac cess in making silage Corn for the silo may be cut any time pushI the roastingear stage More corn is cut too green train ripe for silo I ing The most widely accepted itltheI j Practical farming hoes not alwaysi lend itsell to cutanddried pro grams it sometimes compels delays hurries and a sort of reekI i l gIthingsI formidable circumstances permit I prospectivebuilder I I the llontir idea that if he does not I cut his curt at a certain time his chances to secure a superior grade of silage are gone If he cannot begin filling the silo today tomor row will do if something happens tomorrow n third day is coming Inexcusable procrastination will not be tolerated It is assumed that the work will be done well and at the right time if that is reasonably possible But there are j silagej v f oio f belt farms We know of one in stance in Michigan in which corn that had been outdoors until Janu ary and in another until March was converted into silage which went into the silo with a barrel of water to the ton According to the testimony of the user the Si lage gave as good results as that vhich was put up at the usual season In these cases the corn had been cut just before frost with a corn binder and set up in shocks each of which consisted of from thirty to thirtyfive bundles It remained in the shock until the first filling of silage had been fed when it was hauled from the fields and siloed Success in siloing depends more upon a mans resource of mind than upon his doing this or that at a time fixed by chemistry author ity or the moon There is great room forI use of sense in building and filling silos and using silage For Sale As I am moving away from Mt Sterling I will sellall my house hold and kitchen furniture Call at my residence o9 Holt avenue 8tf MrsI

feeders on the subject of cotton seed meal and hulls Ken tucky heing a State that produces plenty of corn hay oats and other feed the feeder naturally hates to put cash money into a feedwhen he feels that he can raise what is necessary However the feeders of a progressive type have learned that a few dollars invested in high grade cotton seed meal brings mighty good dividends in fact since the silo has come into use in the State silage feeders have found that it is next to impossible to fat ten cattle properly without the use of cotton seed meal The straight corn feeders have learned that it pays to feed two or three pounds of meal per day to their cattle in addition to their corn Dairymen have ascertained that there is no better or cheaper base for a prop erly balanced dairy ration as high grade cotton seed meal contains 41 per cent of crude protein which is ono of the most essential ingredients in an animal feed Another point in favor of the meal feeders one of the greatest benefits derived from cattle feeding at the present day is the rebuilding or reclaim ing of the soiland cotton seed mealadds most wonderfully to the value of manure Cotton seed hulls are largely used in certain sections of the State as a roughage and withmost satisfying re sults The present indications arc that there will be more meal and hulls fed in the State than any year in the past on account of the relative high price of corn and hay IThe man who hasnt decided to do right has about made up his mind to do wrong A Womans Work How can man say that woman has nothing to do In one yeti she gets

To Spend j 25000000 on Roads In l4 S Honor of One Vote That Ro suited In Annexation Twentyfive millions of dollars ii- a is c large sum to pay out in return for one vote but the state of Texas iis going to spend that amount during the coming year as a result of one solitary vote cast in the state of In diana many years ago The curious explanation is as follows The annexation of Texas to the Union was accomplished by a majority of one vote in the senate Tlc deciding vote was cast by Sdnator Hennegan of Indiana Senator Hen negan was elected to the senate by one vote in the Indiana house That vote was cast by Madison March who was elected to the legislature by s one vote If Texas could discover j the identity of the man who cast the one vote that elected Madison Marsh the state would probably name a new county after him In lieu of that however Texas is going to spend the 25000000 on its roads F Attention Music Teachers and Scholars We are closing out our Mc Kinley Music and offer

balalaika a Russian string in strument which a few months ago was unknown there Now there are thousands of balalaika players and balalaika orchestras enjoy a vogue The balalaika is said to be the easiest musical instrument in the world to learn It consists of three strings across n triangular base The strings are struck together with the forefinger of the right hand form ing a chord the left hand moves down the neck of the balalaika changing the key of the chords in the tineway as a banjo is played In fact tho balalaika js a banjo with three strings only the strings are never played separately It is therefore much easier to learn than the banjo People can learn to play simple tunes on it in ten minutes THE RESEMBLANCE A new and elaborate buffet opened in the loop district
