I'll explain later*" Tfce friend agreeing, he was speed iy introduced to Secretary Thompson, who listened carefully to the state ment that the caller had to make. Then, as the latter was preparing to Wave Uncle Dkk wrinkled up his forehead and requested: "Just tell tne over again, in as few words as possl ble, what it is that you want." The caller complied, and hardly had he finished when the secretary ex claimed: "That Is a perfectly proper request. I will give the necessary in structions, so that it will be carried out. When you are in Washington again, I shall be glad to se you.” When they were on their way from the department. Senator Voorhees ex plained to his constituent. "I was right,” he said. "You got what you wanted, and got it at once. He was not suspicious of you, but l'oud as he is of cigars, he is instantly j suspicious of a visitor who comes to ask some favor and in the course of the conversation offers cigars. He will take the cigars, but I have no ticed that the chances are that he will not grant the favor sought. So 1 asked you not to offer cigars to Dick. 1 am sure that if you had done so your re quest would have been held up. and iikeiy denied in the end.” Uncle Dick Thompson remained as the head of the navy department until a few weeks before the expiration of President Hayes' term, when he re signed voluntarily to take a remunera tive civil position. He died in 1903. when 91 years of age. (Copyright. 191!. by E. J. Edwards. Al! Rights Reserved.) Enmity Made Political History General Arthur’s Dislike of Reuben E.

"I thought he was an Intimate friend of yours?" “In counting on that!"—Life late Colonel George Bliss of New York, my authority for this anecdote. “1 first made his acquaintance when 1 was upon the staff of Governor Mor gan in the early days of the Civil war. Chester A. Arthur served on the same staff with me. 1 never knew what it was that caused Arthur to dislike Fenton, who was then In congress from a western New York district and a staunch supporter of Lincoln and his policies, but I do know that had it not been for that dislike Fenton would probably have been a vice president of the United States and Governor Morgan would have been elected to the United States senate for a second term. “After it was apparent to one and all that General Grant would be nomi nated by the Republicans for the pres idency in 1S6S." continued Colonel Bliss, “it came to General Arthur's knowledge that Fenton, who was fin ishing his second term as governor of the- state, was very anxious to be nom inated as vice-president. 1 am sure it was not generally known that this was Governor Fenton’s ambition. But it was. and. of course, if New Y'ork stood united in the support of a can didate for vice-president, the proba bilities were that the candidate would be accepted by the impending conven tion. for Grant was to be accredited to Illinois, and it is tradition for the Republican party, when .selecting a presidential candidate from the west to look to New York for his running mate.* But when Arthur beard of Fenton's ambition, he got busy and persuaded myself and two or three others that it would never do to let Fenton secure the plum he so coveted. Tom Murphy was one of the men so persuaded: Murphy, at that time, had a good deal of political power—Grant subsequently appointed him collector of the port of New York. We had a good deal of influence with the party organization up state. Arthur con trolled the organization in New Y’ork city, and so. to make a long story short, we were able to prevent a ma jority of the New York delegation to the national convention recommend ing Fenton for the vice-presidential nomination. And thus Schuyler Col fax of Indiana was nominated for and became vice-president. "When Fenton saw that he w-as beaten he showed no signs of disap pointment. Indeed, to us who were on the other side It seemed that he took his defeat very philosophically, and we were glad, for we wanted no rumpus within the party. Had we been a few years older we probably should not have viewed the situation so complacently and looked forward so confidently to the re-election a -few months hence of Morgan to the sen ate. “But when the legislature met we discovered to our mingled astonish ment and dismay that Fenton, in the short time that had elapsed since the wrecking of his vice-presidential as pirations. had been quietly at work and secured a majority of the legisla ture in favor of his election as sena tor to succeed Morgan. And so he gained the caucus nomination and was elected, and thereby got even with us for blocking his plans to run with Grant." (Copyright. 1911. by E. J. Edwards. All Rights Reserved.)

Tbe late Owen Kildare, author of "My Mamie Rost.” had a remarkable memory, of which many stories are told says tbe Philadelphia Bulletin. “One first of April evening.” said an editor. ”1 entertained a party of writers, among whom were Kildare and a conceited minor poet. '« "Kildare had glanced over the minor poet’s last volume a few days before, and. of course, he rememtered nearly every line of it. At my porty, glancing at the long-haired rhymster, be said: "Boys, I told a sonnet for $500 to \ the Kash Magazine this afternoon. Listen I'll recite it.” "And he recited one of the minor poet s sonnets, accepting the praise that followed complacently. "A little later be said, apropos of banting That reminds me of a poem of mine on war. It runs—’ "And he recited another of the minoi poet’s productions. “The poor minor poet fidgeted. He seemed both flattered and enraged Kildare rattled off a half dozen of his productions. He concluded with what he called ‘a soliloquy dashed off this afternoon —the grand opening lines of ‘Paradise Lost.’ "That was the minor poet's chance Tossing back his mane, be cried: “ ‘Kildare, I’ve submitted all the evening to your appropriation of what ever merit may belong to my own feeble verses, but I will never sit qui etly by and see the divine Milton robbed of "Paradise Lost” ’ ” A Woman’s Luncheon. “One bottle of olives for twenty women," exclaimed Mr. Wombat “It will be plenty,” declared Mrs. Wombat. “Few of the ladies will care to stop talking long enough to eat” SILO SHOULD BE REGARDED AS NECESSITY ON STOCK FARM Huge Receptacle Is No Longer an Experiment and Is as j Valuable to Man Who Breeds Stock as to Dairy man—Sllege Very Materially Decreases Cost of Putting Pound of Beef Onto Feeding Steer. We have been laboring in season and out of season to induce farmers to build silos. The silo is no longer an experiment. It has been used by dairymen with success for thirty years. It was for a long time supposed that it could only be used in dairying, says the Wallace Farmer. We have found out now that it is almost as val uable to the man who grows stock as to the man who milks cows. We arc finding out that silage very materially decreases the cost of putting a pound of beef onto a feeding steer. We have found out that it is good for the ewe, for the brood sows, and for young stock of all kinds as weil as for dairy cattle. The only animal on the place to which it is not safe to feed it is the horse; just why we do not know. It is perhaps entirely safe if of good qual ity, but dangerous if moldy. We are finding out still more about silage, namely, that by using a sum mer silo, one about half the size of the winter one. we can bridge over the droughts, which come in every coun to enlist the co-operaticn cf your ! neighbors. The same silage cutter and the same power will answer for two neighbors anyhow, and frequently three, but not more. Have you not a couple of neighbors who would be ben- I efited by having a silo? If they are i not convinced of this, can vcu not get c I them to convince themselves by in- ; vestigating it? Then can you not ar range to co-operate in buying a cut ter, and. what is quite as important, in filling the seperate silos? Can you not agree to plant an early corn and a later variety? Suppose you cannot fill one man’s silo before it is dry; you can easily remedy that by putting in water. We have dene it and it works finely. You ran even take the corn that stands in the field ready for husking and make good silage cut of it if you put in 1 water enough; or you can plant seme sorghum and corn, and let the abun dance of moisture in the sorghum make for the deficiency in the corn. All these things are worth thinking * A Silo for a Stock Farm. try in the civilized world at some sea son of the year. With us the most dangerous time is in July and August which are usually droughty periods, w hen the grass is short and flies are bad. We are finding out that by having a summer silo we can provide pasture out of the silo until the rains come in the fall. Some of the readers may shake their heads at this, but we are telling them agricultural gospel truth. They may say: While we often have these dry periods in July ahd August, we do not always have them. Some years , we have excellent pastures. True, but your silage will keep almost as well as the fruit your wife keeps over from a year of abundance to a year of want. Last year we fed on one of the farms belonging to the Wallace family silage that was two years old. Apparently it was just as good as the year it was made. Why do we talk about it now ? Be cause. if you are going to have a silo this fall for either winter or summer use, you ought to be thinking about it; not about the building of it or the coat o'r it, although it is worthy of thought, but where you will plant your corn to nece*sitate the least haul ing and diminish the expense; about what kind of silage you want, whether rich with corn or scant in corn. You can determine that by the thickness of planting. If you want silage rich in corn to fatten steers, you want to plant it as you do for the market—for the maximum of ears; but if you want it to feed to the dairy cows and want a large yield of stock with small grain yield, you must nlant it thick. The main reason we are talking about it now is because to put up a silo and use it economically you want about- What we want to impress upon your minds just now is that you cannot afford not to build a silo if you are in the stock business. You can no more do without a manure spread er or a grain drill. There are some things that are well settled over most of our territory. There are sections, say in the extreme north, where it is more of a question as to whether one should build a silo or not. because these northern farmers can grow roots to much greater advantage than we can and silge is not so practicable in a very long and cold winter on ac count of the freezing. This, however, is only in the extreme northern sec tions. Throughout the corn belt the silo should be regarded as an absolute necessity on the stock farm in every section where there is liability of sun - mer drought. Onion Culture Much labor and alertness attends the raising of a crop of onions and it takes experience to prod”ce a crop successful in every particular. Xo beginner should attempt to raise onions from seed cn a large scale. A quarter of an acre should be the maximum limit for a beginner. In most cases less would be more ad visable. This would be enough to lead him step by step into the work successfully Danger of Early Grass. Too much early grass will physic the work horses severely, which will run them down in flesh.

POWDER PROCESS Article Produced Found by Analy sis to Contain All of Con stituents of Millt Except Water. The processes currently employed for making milk powder are based upon desiccation by heat In a pro cess recently devised in France by Le comte and Lainvilie the action ot cold is substituted for that of heat The milk is poured into vessels similar to those which are used for producing blocks of artificial ice. and is cooled to a few degrees below the freezing point (about 28.5 deg. F.). Suitable precautions are taken to prevent the water of the milk from freezing in a solid mass and to cause it to assume the form of fine snow. The congealed milk is then placed in a centrifugal separator which revolves very rapidly. The snow crystals remain in the ma chine while the other parts ot the milk are expelled^tn the form of the soft, greasy paste, which still con tains some water. The desiccation Is completed by placing the paste in a drying room heated to a moderate and uniform temperature. The milk pow der thus produced has been proved by analysis to contain all of the consti tuents of the milk, except the water, in an unaltered condition. The pro cess is equally applicable to whole milk, and to milk deprived of part or all of its cream. Farm School Graduates.

Pratt of Boston, who was the founder of the first tuberculo sis class in the United States in the Emmanuel church in Boston claims that in the treatment of tuberculosis I absolute rest, often in bed, must be extended over a period of months, be fore the consumptive should take any exercise. He says: •'Prolonged rest in bed out of doors yields better re sults than any other method of treat ing pulmonary tuberculosis. Patients will have a better appetite, and take snore food without discomfort and gain weight and strength faster than pa tients with active disease who are allowed to exercise. Complications j are much less frequent. When used in the incipient stage recovery is more rapid and surer.” The One Thing Needed.
