Tot AW Saltiiiff tlic Earth. Geof A. Fry and Josh Butler today received from Hutchinson a car load of salt, pounds, which they will use in new way. Both have extensive larm interests which they look after themselves and they propose to sow the salt with oats, wheat and flax, on the the theory that land BO treated is given the chemicals required By these grains and in the belief that chinch bugs will shun the fields. Some of their unpractical town friends have rather a hankering for the belief that wheat so treated will grow loaves of salt fisiiig bread.

At any rate the test is one which will be watched with interest and the farmers may reap good returns from the $100 or more invested by these gentlemen in an experiment. Horse Stepped oii Him. Yesterday afternoon Charlie Price was trying to shear a pony's foretop at his barn and a man named McOIanabaD, from Neosho Falls, tried te hold the horse.

One of them, a carpenter, after working several weeks was seized with rheiimatism and has been confined to his home In the north part of town for several weeks.

Recently his trouble took a change lor the worse and he became paralyzed from bis hips down. Alter lying thus helpless for weeks, the doctors being unable to do anything for him, the lower limbs began to waste away and now the flesh Is nearly all gone and dothiug remains but the skin sunken upon the bones. The paralysis is gradually creeping upward and the patient sufferer who hoped while the rheumatism lasted, has despaired and is calmly awaiting the end.

Little Fisher tiirl Bitten.

It seems that there were three persons bitten by the dog which acted so suspiciously as to create a fear of hydrophobia in town. The third person was the fourteen year old daughter of a widow named Fiaher, who came from Nevada Jsome tinie ago, and lives in one of 8. fiel- Jer's houses on south street. The dog met her In the west part of town where she was playingj with some other children and bit her on the hand. The wound is swelling and becoming quite painful according to report and something should be done about it.

The Fisher girl has been absenting herself from school without leave either from tea or parent f6r some time and it was on one of these self- granted vacations that she encountered the dog.

A PRACTICAL QUESTION. The aaM-Bepubliean parties whioh ave talkimgf so aiteh against profeea to ia favor of the ereaae ot business buf opposed to territorial expansion. T-hsy take this position beeause they know the people want a larger market for produets bvt they are against practieal measures for the exteasioa of markets because ths Republican party, favors them. The Damo-Populist leaders do not offer a single plan by which the American farmer or the American mechanic can make an extra dollar, and they stand in the way of every proposition leading to increased opportunities for American producers. The only attempt to broaden markets they ever formulated was the WiUon bill and it i.s too recent history to recount what it did.

The Republican party proposes to build a Pacific cablo, dig a canal connecting the Atlantic and Paciflc, establish American merchant ships and place an American harbor right at the gateway of the biggest and best m.ir- ket the world holds for Araer.can products. The opposition, while ro- peating parrot-like, that they arc la favor of the markets of the world, oppose every practical effort to open them. Ou the question of securing bigger and better markets for the products of the American farmer and the American shop, they pursue the policy enunciated by the Kansas politician, Uncle Chet Thomas, on the woman suffrage question: "Talk for it, rote agin it." Will the people be fooled by the 9oli.y,oian« of tUeise anvthinor-to-beat- Iho-Bepublican-party? It 'is certainly anything but a tribute to the common setise of tlia people to. suppose that on this subject of greater markets they will follow the politician who "talks for it and votes against It" This Demo-Populist policy is easy. They have nothing to explain or defend.

They simply take the criticise and snort around when anything does not go to suit them, or some arises which they, can magnify by making a noise. They propose nothing themselves, and yet everybody realizes that the one way to jyet business is to go after it, and not merely set around and whine at those who are active. The question is whether the country wants to be practical and have practical legislation along practical lines, or whether It prefers that nothing be done except to watch othet; nations gobble the good markets while the Americans wrangle over, domestic politics. Simply stated the dlfEerence between the two parties is this: Both declare for expansion of jtrade. The Republicans are practical and propose to go after it even if it does cost a few dollars.

The Demo-Populists bang back and oppose every effort to actually secure what they profess to advocate. And the. question for every votei- to decide during the coming year is whether he is in favor of going to Work and doing something, or of sitting down and complaining about what is being done.

It la Small and That Is Why Hay aad Other Balky Foods Shonid Be Fed SparlBsiy.

Where hay is plentiful, as it is on most farms, the fact that the horse has a small stomach seems to be forgotten. Where on the'contrary hay, is scarce and high as in the large cities the feeding of hay is much better understood. To allow any working hnrse to eat hay ad libitum is positive cruelty in that it Is injurious to the horse, as this animal is not provided with a large storage apparatus as is the cow for the stowing away of fodder by the pounds. This hieing the case a great quantity of hay consumed hy a working-horse, say at the noon hour, merely becomes a burden and eventually leads to indigestion. Hay is not digested in the stomach (which in the hoise holds but three and a half gallons) but in the large intestines to which alsomostof the water goes when imbibed, passing through the stomach and'of course washing out part of the solid contents present in that receptacle.

On farms where people rise very early hay may be fed with advantage in small quantity if given say at five a. m. and the oats ration at six a. as time has been given for the haiy to pass into the intestines. There can, however, be no ad.vantage in feeding hay at noon as the working horse cannot digest it but carries it around at work until evening cornes, when it can be taken care of by the digestive apparatus.

The proper time to allow a full feed of hay is at eight o'clock at night, two hours after the horse has eaten his oats, and so far as hard worked horses are concemed, and more especially in the heated term of midsummer, this is the only time hay should be allowed. It is absurd and detrimental to allow any horse to stand and "hog" hay all day long, and worse still if dozens of ears of corn are added to the ration. Even an idle horse needs but little over 14 pounds per day where other good foods are given. The horse's stomach Is small, as has been said, and he needs and have concentrated food In small quantities at short inten-nls. We seldom find a case of "heaveB" appear in a city bam wshere horses are properly managed.

It is peculiarly a disease of the farm fed horse and it is due to continued overburdening of tke stomaohand Intestines with bulky, dry, coarse fodder and hay which are also too often moldy or full of dust. Many of the other ailments of the horse are also due to the same cause, together with lack of exercise and too much corn. Ferr) sound food to the horse in small quantities often, prefer oafs to cbrh for hard work, always water before exercise amply every day of the year and give the main feed of hay at night and the farm hbrse will be healthy and Review SAVONBURG.
