GOVERNOR STUBBS OF KANSAS Governor Walter Roscoe Stubbs, who was re nominated at the Republican primaries of the state, has had a short career in politics, compared with most leaders. It is only seven years since he began to interest himself at all actively in public affairs, and now the governor's ambition ls to succeed Senator Charles Curtis, whose term expires in March, 1913. and whose successor will be chosen two years hence. Stubbs is ret? headed, like that other insurgent leader of Kansas Republicans, Victor Murdock. Red hair means energy. Oddly enough, he comes of Quaker stock.. His parents, who lived in Rich mond, Ind., when he was born, were very poor. Now fifty-two years old. the governor is wealthy as a result of many years of hard work as a con tractor, mostly in railroad building. Thus he has an intimate acquaintance with one feature of railroad affairs, the cost of new lines. A big man physically,-Stubb3 has a face that is often .boyishly emotional, though it can change into granite , hardness when his fighting spirit is . aroused. His talk'is .homely and direct He frankly admits that he is ambi tious to go high in/politics. He has hardly any "book learning," and-he; does not pretend tohave.any. He has been, however, c very good friend to the state's educational institutions and appreciates education. Stubbs began his political career in 1903 by going to the legislature. In 1904 he became chairman of the Republican state committee and remained such, for four years. He nominated Edward Wallis Hoch for governor, after H?ch had refused to accept the nomination. Stubbs hired two good talkers to use the long-distance telephone from Topeka on every farmer in the state who had a phone In his home. It cost s. good deal of money, but Stubbs was satisfied with the result "They wouldn't have worried about a letter," he said, "but when they get a long-distance call they knew that meant some thing." As governor, Stubbs sought unsuccessfully last year to have passed a two-cent passenger-rate law, declaring the statute permitting a three-cent rate to be a humbug. The legislature, adopted the report of the railroad commission, recommending that the-two-cent bill be not passed. CARDINAL GIBBONS AT 76 | James, Cardinal GIbbonB, who recently cele brated the seventy-sixth anniversary of nis birth, is noted among churchmen and is head of the Ro man Catholic hierarchy in the United States. He was born in Baltimore, but at an early age was taken by his parents to their former home in Ireland, where his education began. Upon returning to the United States he lived for a while In New Orleans. He. studied first at St Charles college and later at St Mary's seminary in Baltimore, and in 1SC1 he was ordained to the priesthood. In a short time he was made private secretary to Archbishop Spalding and chancellor of the archdiocese. In 1SC3 he was raised to the episcopate and in 1877 was created coadjutor archbishop of Baltimore. A few months later he succeeded to the see. and on June 30, 18SG, he was Invested with the insignia of cardinal. Cardinal Gibbons presided at the' third national council cf the church, held in Baltimore in 1884. He has written books and namphlets on religious subjects and is noted for bis char itable work. In the course of a general conversation with the cardinal recently, the subject of divorce came up and he at once opened up on it with all his bat teries. The evils of divorce are ever uppermost in his thoughts. "Divorce is a-canker which ls eating into the very vitals of our life," he said in "the interview, in ?which he also urged young men to enter politics. "Society our whole civilization uprears itself upon the sanctity of the home and the unity of the family. When you attack the family you attack, government Itself. And government to protect and perpetuate itself-must expunge from Its statutes the criminal divorce laws which the best of our life abhors. "1 pray for he time when men and women may be persuaded to under stand the seriousness'of marriage. Regardless of religious convictions, they should . understand that they are entering upon a contract which is not of a day cr a month, but of a lifetime. They should know that they must bear and forbear. The husband cannot pull one way and the wife another. They must pull in the traces together.". WILL GIVE AWAY MILLIONS With the announcement that John D. Rocke feller. Jr., has resigned from tho directorate of the Standard Oil company and has relinquished other large business interests to assume charge of the work of giving away his father's vast for tune, a new public interest In this young man has arisen. Now thirty-three years old, he has been looked upon for many years as the heir apparent of the elder Rockefeller's habits of-acquisitive ness and frugality. His talks to his Sunday school class have been keenly vatched and re ported in the newspapers, and their tone has been considered, by a good part o' *ie public at least that of unctuous, self-satl**8ed piety. But now everything is changed; both the father and the son art* preparing to demonstrate their belief that "faith without works Is void," and the works are to be great Indeed if all that ls promised of the Rockefeller Foundation shall be carried out , Those who have come closely in contact with young Mr. Rockefeller say he has a seriou i mind and probably would have entered the ministry had he not been destined for great business affairs as the only son of the oil magnate. Born and bred In Cleveland, he was trained In early life, like all the Rockefeller children, to simple living and industry. He was prepared for college by private tutors and sent to Brown univers) ity with the intention, it is said, of .keeping him from the temptations of larger and more fash ionable institutions of learning. Brown university, of course, has Baptist antecedents aiid affiliations, and all the Rockefellers are of that denomina tion. As a student Mr. Rockefeller mingled freely with his fellow students, though he was not given to social pleasures. October 1, 1901, Mr. Rockefeller married Abby Green Aldrich, daughter of Senator Nelson W. Aldrich of Rhode Island. The marriage, which took place in Providence, was a great society event, and was attended by 1.000 guests. The gifts were valued at $700.000. Three children have been born to Mr. and Mrs. Rockefeller. r Gradually the younger Rockefeller has been relinquishing his responsi bilities as a director In large corporations. As a Sunday school teacher Mr. Rockefeller has been an utterer of many precepts for the guidance of bis lellow young men. He has advised against living beyond one's meail3, against borrowing money on friendship, against drinking anything Intoxicat ing, against shirking humble work, against discontent because of poverty, against sourfacedness, against timidity and several other things that have been the subjects of platitudes' and homilies since religion began to be associated .with morals. There is nothing original in his remarks, though they undoubtedly are the outpourings of a sincere. If conventional, mind. His Sunday school class, naturally, has been filled with young men eager to learn tho way to success. WEDS A JAP WAR ADMIRAL Miss Florence M. Roche, the only daughter of the late James Jeffrey Roche, the famous poet and author, was recently married in Boston to Read Admiral Henry Walton Grinell, formerly the "Yankee admiral" of the Japanese navy, and they are now touring Europe. They have been friends for years. The admiral was a friend of the young woman's father while he was editor of the Pilot During last winter tba two were brought together a great deal at St Augustine and their long friendship strengthened hy con stant association, led to their engagement. Miss Roche is about 25 years old and has lived in Boston virtually all her Ufe up to the time that her father was appointed consul to Genoa by _ President Roosevelt in 1905, when she gave up her work and Joined him. Mr. Roche died two years aga Admiral Grinell entered the United States navy at an early age ,and rose to the rank of lieutenant Just before the Chinese-Japanese war Japan asked for an American naval officer in helping to build up and organize Its navy. Orinen was made the choice of the navy board. He was given the rank of rear admiral by the Japanese government and remained in its employ for several years in an advisory capacity. VALUE OF SOY BEAN Growing in Importance as For age Crop in Southern States. Admirably, Adapted to Short Rota tions, Taking an Entire Season, or Part, Following Some Small Grain Crop-Used as Feed. The soy bean, alto called the "soja bean," ls a native of southeastern Asia and has been extensively culti vated In Japan, China and India since ancient times. Upward of two hun dred varieties are grown in these countries, practically every district of which has its own distinct varieties. The beans are there grown ajmost en tirely for human food, being prepared for consumption in many different ways. Their flavor, however, does not commend them to Caucasian appetites and thus far they have found but small favor as human food in either Europe or America. As a forage crop, however, soy beans have become of increasing im portance in parts Of the United States, especially southward. They have been tested at moat- of the state agri cultural experiment stations, and it is clear that their region of maximum importance will be south of the red clover area and in sections where al falfa cannot be grown successfully. Tb ey thus compete principally with cowpeae. Soy beans are admirably, adapted to short rations, taking either an entire season or a part of a season following some small-grain crop. In Tennessee and North Carolina a soy-bean crop Is often grown between two wheat crops, and in other parts of the south between oat crops. In such cases, however, an early variety like the Ito San or the Haberlandt ls pref erable. Where a whole season Is devoted to soy beans two crops of the earlier va rieties can be matured in all parts of th? cotton belt, and this is in many easies preferable to growing a single crop of a late variety. Where the whole season Is thus devoted to soy beans, they may take any place in a rotation system where corn can be used. The consensus of opinion among farmers ts that a crop of coy beans benefits the succeeding crop, but not to so great a degree as one of cow peas. More accurate data on this point are needed. Regarding the fertilizer require ments of soy beans there are but few data available. Where fertilizers are used, the general practise is to use acid'phosphate at the rate of 200 to SOO pounds per acre and muriate of potash at the rate of 50 pounds per acre. The feeding value of any forage crop and for;any particular purpose can be determined only by actual feed ing experiments. There are, of course, definite relations between the digesti ble constituents of a feed and the re cultant gains in flesh or milk. ..These Typical Soy Bean Plant. relations are, however, more complex than a table of analyses indicates. On this account the relative value of feeds is best shown by comparative feeding trials. Such trials Indicate that good soy benn hay is about equal to alfalfa for milk and butter produc tion. They also show that soy-beau, meal is somewhat superior .to cotton eeed meal In the production of pork, mutton and milk. Soy-bean meal also proves to be slightly more valuable than wheat middlings in feeding hogs.

The eradication of the cattle tick (Margaropus annulatus) from the southern states is a problem of prime importance to- the agricultural inter ests of that. section. Moreover, the good that would result from the elim ination of the tick would not be en tirely confined to the region directly concerned, and thus the matter as sumes to a certain degree a national importance. There are various kinds or species of ticks occurring on cattle in the southern states, but the one thar, chiefly concerns us here is that com monly called the "cattle" or "Texas fever" tick (Margaropus annulatus). It is the one most frequently found on cattle and is much more abundant than the other species, i When the losses occasioned by this parasite are once thoroughly understood by farm ers and stockmen there will be little need for argument in favor of tick eradication. Some of the losses are Pall Spraying Pump for ?mall Herds. not directly ndticeable and conse quently make little impression, while other losses properly chargeable to the tick are frequently attributed to other causes. It is hardly necessary to emphasize the Important fact that the tick ls something more than a Blmple parasite drawing blood 'from its host, it being the carrier of a dangerous micro-or ganism or germ, which Jt transmits to .the .blood of cattle,, thus causing a disease known by many names, among which are Texas fever, tick fever, splenetic fever nd .murrain. Without the tick there can be no Texas fever, and it is by preventing the spread of the tick beyond , its natural bounds that the fever has been prevented from waging destruction among northern cattle,' which are especially susceptible;1 to the disease. Dipping in a vat is therefore on the whole the best and cheapest/ method of apply ing remedies when large herds are to bo treated. Farms and pastures may be freed of ticks by treating all cattle at regu lar intervals with Van effective tick destroying agent. If the. treatment is . applied with such;-success as to de stroy all ticks that reach the cattle from time to time, , thus preventing any engorged .fenial?'?' from dropping on the pasture after the beginning of the treatment, the pasture wiil become free of ticks after the same period of time has elapsed as would have been required If all. animals had been ex cluded, beginning on the same date; that is, a perfectly successful treat ment would be practically the samo es the complete exclusion of the herd. Do not apply an excess of manure to grapes. In applying liquid! manure pour around the roots. Over-sour cream gives a sour-milk taste to the butter. In long wooled sheep size ls easier to maintain than quality. Good lambs are never reared unless they eceive a favorable start in lifo. A really good cow will not fatten no matter how highly she ls fed dur ing the first flow of milk. It 13 much better to prune a little at a time and keep it up, than to slash heavily at long Intervals. . Sometimes they, are as sharp as needles and hurt the sow so much that she will riot permit them to suokle. There are no animals on the farm that are more particular In regard to the quality of their food than sheep. Do not attempt to grow too many varieties of fruit, rather be content with those that thrive best in your locality. Never turn very young pigs into the field In hot weather for more than an hour or two a day until the'skin be comes toughened. It is a great mistake to fatten sows if breeding depends upon the spring gilts for a next;year's crop, as this plan will In time result in inferior . stock. Unless matted rows of strawberries are wanted, runners should be cut away as they fohn; if left to grow they draw unnecessarily from the parent plant. Rape for Fowls. Dwarf Essex ripe may be planted in the spring and is relished by fowls for green food.

Departure in Demonstration Work. Miss Marie S. Cromer has been appointed by the United States De partment of Agriculture as colabora tor for Aiken county. Miss Cromer has already catered upon her duties and will !>e located in the office of the eo'unty superintendent of education. Miss Cromer was appointed by Ira W. Williams, who- is in- charge of the demonstration work in South Caro lina. O. B. Martin was also instru mental in securing Miss Cromer for this work in Aiken county! Thc office carnes a salary of $75 a month and Miss Cromer is the second to be appointed ia the United States, thus creating a new branch of the demon stration work. The other appointee is Miss Agnew, whose work lies in the State of Virginia. The appoint ment of Miss Agnew grew out of the organization of the Aiken County Girls' Tomato Club. -This is an en tirely new departure for the govern ment, and it will mean a great deal to the rural sections. Miss Cromer's specific duties will be to visit rural homes under the auspices of the tomato club, to give instruction in domestic science and to perform any other duties to uplift rural life. The rural sections of the country are just now receiving a great deal of attention from the gov ernment, and everything practicable is being done to improve rural con ditions. ?Mass Cromer's work in Aiken coun ty will be of an experimental nature, and if it proves successful a branch department will be permanently es tablished and workers will be secured for every county in the country. The scope of the work is practically uc limited. Miss Cromer's commission calls for 12 months' work. More Dispensary Litigation. Weston & Aycock, pf Columbia, have filed an appeal for Bluentbari & Bickert', of Baltimore, and formerly of Atlanta, a whisky firm seekiug to have released $8,000 owed this firm by the county dispensaries and held np, along with other claims. The State dispensary commission claims that Bluenthal & Bickert is indebfed ed to the State in the sum of $32, 000, on account of alleged over charges. The overjadgment filed against this firm was at the same time as the decree hy the commission involving a large amount of overjudg ments, something over $500.000. Of the $32,000 involved in the claim of the State, $8,000 is tied up in the county dispensaries, an act having been passed at the last session of the 2;emeral assembly giving the commie sion tho right to take over this money. Weston & Aycock moved that ser vice be dismissed in the Bluenthal tfc Bickert case, on the ground that the failure to attach had rendered the at tempted service ineffectual. The me t?an was dismissed by Judge DeVore. [t is from this order of Judge De Vore that the appeal is taken to the supreme court.. Work of Brown Grasshoppers.

' Bungling Diploma WASHINGTON.-Ignorance on the part of amateur diplomats con cerning the proper form of diplomatic correspondence nearly precipitated a war scare in two nations not long since. It was announced that the em peror of Germany had deliberately affronted the United States govern ment by employing affectionate terms in addressing President Madriz of Nicaragua, whom our government had refused to recognize. "Great and Good Friend," is< the way the kaiser's letter to Madriz,was commenced. This had sinister sig nificance to the amateurs. Immedi ately the newspapers were filled with stories that Germany had espoused the cause of Madriz; that the Monroe doctrine had been thrown down and repudiated by the warlike kaiser;; also the emperor had been acting queerly of late and .undoubtedly was bent on making all the trouble he could for the United States. After a little inquiry the war scara faded away. 'Tn all probability," said a state de partment official, "the emperor never Bad Land Tide AREPORT made to congress by a commission appointed to examine land titles in the District of Columbia discloses that many lots of land occu pied by modern business houses and residences in the national capital are still owned by the government, not withstanding the present tenants be lieve they have a clear title to the property. This question of land titles in the national capital is not a new one. Two years ago congress created a commis sion to study it. Ths commission con sisted of the attorney general, the sec retary of wE?r, Senator Scott of West Virginia, Representative Bartholdt of Missouri, and one of the district com missioners. The report reveals a hor rible land tangle, which the courts will probably never be able to straighten out The tangle is the outcome of the wild speculation in real estate that took place for a good many years after the capital was laid out. Private lands were acquired in Now Planning a ? DEER and elk preserves may play an important part in reducing the high cost of beef. According to gov ernment experts who have made au investigation of the cost and methods of raising venison, declare that tho garhe laws of the various states are preventing deer and elk farming and denying the country one of its chief sources of cheap and good meat. Deer and elk can be raised readily ;n near ly every state In the Union. They are ear'.ly controlled and cheaply fed. The increase of elk under domestica tion is fully equal to that of cattle. They are hardier and more able to stand exposure and the elk aide is more valuable than t;hat of the steer. The Virginia or whitetail deer, com mon in most parts of the United States, is not so bardy as the elk, but with proper care can be raised with profit. The state and the government, through its Yellowstone park officials, have co-operated with individual ranchmen in caring for the vast herds of elk in the Jackson's Hole region In Wyoming. It is estimated that there are 30,000 elk in the Yellowstone park region, constituting the only great herd left. . For two or three winters these elk have been fed, and have now come to look upon the feodlnsr c-3 a Government's Censi IN the present census the govern ment has made a great effort to ob tain, through special agents, full and authentic data concerning the tribal relations of the Indians, as a decade hence when the fourteenth census will be taken, it probably will be found that those Indians who are now de pendent wards of thc nation have be come full-fledged citizens. The Indian population of the United States decreased in the decade from LS90 to 1900, from 273.607 to 2G6.760. [n 18S0 the care of the Indians cost :he national government $5,206,109; n 1909 the cost had risen to $15, ?24.162, more than three times as nuch.

Nations are excessively polite to one another in their interchange of communications. Every le?er thi.t goes out from the state department lo a foreign government has this cere monial finish: "Accept, excellency, the renewed as surance of my highest consideration." The cern,email letters of all coun tries begin In about the same way. For instance, all of England's com munications begin: "George V., by the Grace of God, cf the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland, king, defender of the faith, emperor of India, etc." "Nicholas, by the Grace of God, em peror autocrat of all the Russias, czar of Casan, czar of Astrac?n, etc, lord' of Plescott and grand duke of Smo lensk!, etc." Germany's letters are very much like those of Russia, in that they be gin by announcing all the titles of the ruling potentate. "William IL, tj God's grace, emperor of Germany and king of Prussia," etc., is the way the present emperor addresses his cere monial letters. The emperor writes with a quill pen, and If one may judge by his signature on file in the state' department, does not take much time about lt. Tangle Is Revealed Washington, in the early days, by a very simple process. The territory "not exceeding" ten miles square was ceded to the United States govern ment by Maryland and Virginia and placed under the authority of three commissioners, appointed by the presi dent. They or any twp of them were required, under the direction of the president, to survey and ny proper metes and bounds define and limit a district of territory, and the territory so defined was established as a perma nent seat of the government of the United States. Power was giv?n the commissioners to purchase or accept land on the eastern side of the Poto mac, for the use of the United States, and the commissioners were further required to provide suitable buildings for the accommodation of congress, the president and public officers of the government of the United States. It was to raise money to erect the pub lic buildings that the government planned to sell its land to private par lies. No sooner had the capital city been laid out than land speculators ap peared on the scene, and as a result of their operations, it ls asserted, much land which belonged to the govern ment illegally passed to individual owners. Substitute for Beef matter of course, - and State Game Warden Nowlln of Wyoming, who has led the feeding experiments, says that the last of the great elk herds is be coming rapidly domesticated. Several ranchmen in tbe Rocky mountain coun try have conducted private elk pre-, serves for years. Outside of tile pri vate elk preserves there are few herds left In the west Barret Littlefleld, who lives near Slater, has several hundred elk on his great ranch. Every season he ships many carcasses of elk to the Denver market, besides supplying zoological gardens throughout the country. He has found it profitable to raise elk for the market-so profitable that he abandoned the cattle business years ago and has devoted himself entirely to the raising of venison. There are two other elk preserves in northwest ern Colo. ado. J. B. Dawson, a Routt county pioneer, has several hundred head of elk on his ranch near Hayden. The Glen Beulah deer preserve Is an estate of about 3.0C0 acres near De beque, Col., and here one finds sev eral hundred deer and, elk roaming about. Henry Binning, of Cora, Wyo, has a large herd of elk under enclos- ' ure, and in a report to the government he shows how easily elk yield to cap tivity when he states that the en closure in which he keeps the animals is less than four feet high. In nearly every state in the Union the killing of deer is forbidden ex ? cepting in the fall and during a lim ited period. I? deer and elk are to be raised for the market the venison Tanner must be allowed to kill for the market, whenever the demand ls there. ?s of Indian Wards and the Indians are gradually learn ing to live by the sweat of the brow upon the product of their own self respecting handiwork, rather than up on the bounty of the government The Apache Indians employed on the Roosevelt reclamation project un der the act of June 17, 1902, earned $34,000 in 1909, and rendered eminent ly satisfactory service in regions where, on account of the heat, a white man could not have labored. Sheep herding has given profitable employ ment to many hundreds of Navajos and Pueblos in the past year, and' Pirna and Papago Indians, employed as navvies on the Southern Pacific railway, earned many thousands of dollars. The Sioux farmers have done well, though they are deficient in the quality of persistent patience that makes the most successful sort of ag ricultural laborer. The Indians' worst foe at present, aside from -whisky, is tuberculosis. The Investigation by the-Smithsonian institution in 1909 showed that about one in four of some 1,500 Indians ex amined were suffering from what has hitherto been known as "the white plague." Sanatorium camps have now beer, established and the government is -exercising special care over its wards. 1
