MR. CAKE'S SPEECH. A good audience greeted Hon. H. M. Cake at the court house on Tuesday evening thus showing that our citizens are thoroughly aroused on the important ( ques tions soon to be settled at the polls. Mr. S. L. Kline intro duced the speaker, paying him the usual compliments on such occasions. The speech was a brief outline of the history of the republican party and its glorious achieve ments in the past ; touching on the Roosevelt administration and eulogizing him for his mighty warfareon trusts and crookedness in high places, thus showing him self in full and complete accord with the President on all vital questions. He next quietly and forcibly outlined the policy he would pursue if elected Senator, the most important of which are regulation of railroads, improve ment of rivers and harbors, re clamation of arid landa, free locks and in fact showed himself in touch with all progressive move ments now before the people. He explained his position as to the election of a United States Senator by direct vote of the peo ple and gave his reasons for the faith expressed ; called the atten tion of his hearers to the fact that in several instances seats in the U. S. Senate had been va cant during the entire session of congress on account of the fail ure of the legislature to elect. That if left to the voter no such contingency could possibly arise. That much time' and money had been expended in various states by employing dilatory tactics, the most disgraceful being in our own 1 ' 1 S 1. . .il. ' 'l . oeiovea uregon wnere me legis lature was held up during the en tire term thus incurring the enormous expense Jof an extra session. That during this time valuable legislation had been neg 1 acted. It was a fair and manly state ment of his views on the ques tions at issue, free from persona! abuse of those who might differ with him on these important questions, and was listened to with marked attention by the au dience. To our mind he did not try to make a speech, but like a good race horse he just came carefully down along the line, sizing up the track, and limbering up the joints. With good blood, sound in limb, clean record, good mus cle, steady nerve, clear head he will make a swift stepper for the June election. If he should be nominated it means death to the sly old coon who, for the past four years, has been visiting our political chicken-coop and pulling the tail feathers out of our best roosters. George will find him game to the core with "pizen" in his spurs. DO XOT IXSTRUCT. In some of the states a discus sion has arisen among republi cans whether or not their dele gates to the National Convention of the party should go instructed for a particular candidate or be sent .without such instruction. Of course the delegates from states having "favorite sons" candidates will support their own candidates while there is a hope of nominating him, but the dele gates from such states as have no "favorite sons" will support the candidate who is most popu lar in the scate the delegates rep resent. This will be certainly so if the delegates are instructed, and probably so if they go unin structed. Our observation of how the se lection of a candidate from the various nominees before a con- vention is reached has long since led us to favor uninstructed dele gates, especially from those states having little numerical strength in the convention. If such delegations are uninstructed and act wisely they may easily wield a powerful influence in de termining the action of the con vention. This cannot be done by a dele gation hampered by instructions. It is in honor bound to obey these, which it usually does until the final vote when it must stand with a smiling face and say "me too." It has been a known fac tor all the time, its value deter mined by its instructions. It has simply been a pawn in a game played by other delegations. When uninstructed it is an un known quantity and may remain so to the last step in the solution of the problem. ' ' It has not been used as a pawn but has played at the game, and if it have played wisely it has had a marked influ ence in shaping the final action of the convention. Let small delegations be com posed of astute men who know how the game is played ; let them act as an unit ; let them be un hampered by instructions and they will accomplish most for i their states and for the party. These are some of the considera tions why Oregon should send an uninstructed delegation to the Chicago convention. Our Climate. Climate is not everything, but it is a good deal. We are brief, ephemeral creatures, and we should get the most and best pos sible out of the little span of life allotted to us. Climate counts and in no part of this country is there so eujoyable, beautnul : climate as on the Pacific coast People live longer here than else where or could it they chose and they live more comfortably, rcore easily, on account ot our climate. It is in most places where many people dwell equa ble ; there are no very great ex tremes. It is especially health ful ; there are all around us on three sides the mountains ; there is on the other side the greatest sea of earth. Here comes, annu ally, the most delightsome sum triers imaginable ; and we look torward to or backward upon our winters with no dread, says the Journal editorially. Livestock, in a large part of this especially favored region, need no expensive providing for ; the indusiiious man can work out-of-do3rs nearly the year round ; the poor man's cottage can be constructed cheaply, the children can play out of doors in January as in June. There-are not only the great mountains and the great sea ; but great, fertile prairies, and valleys and stock ranges ; there is great ness and magnificence of variety in nature's gifts all around and besides, this wonderfully temper are and delicious climate. We passing creatures should appreciate these blessings and be thanktul for them, day by day. and especially on these glories spring Sundays glorious, benefi cent, inspiring, heaven suggest ing, even if it rains. Cruelty to Animals. "The average boy will throw rocks at little birds, stray dogs or cats, or any animals which they think are unprotected. Thev see no harm in so doing, but it they only stopped to think of the needless pain they sometimes in flict on God's creatures that are not interfering with them they might desist from such practices" says an exchange. Commenting upou the subject the Journal gives editorial expression as fol lows which will undoubtedly find an echo in the mind of every right thinking person : I would not enter on my Hat of friends Though graced with polished manners and fine sense, Yet wanting sensibility, the man Who aeedless'y sets h s loot upon a worm . We believe that there has been a great improvement in boys in this respect during the past gen eration or two, but there is room for and need of still ereater growth of grace" in the heart of boys-aud even in some men in this regard. It should be a part of every boys education, constantly instilled into him, that it is wrong, vicious, mean, de spicable and not proper sport or fnn at all, to kill, torture, wound or mistreat an animal The boy should be taught, on the contrary, to make friends and rejoice in the happiness of "all creatures, great and small ; for the good God who Ioveth us, he made and loveth a'l." Boys, don't kill or hurt the an imals or birds, wild or tame, ex cept the predatory or noxious ani mals, or a deer or elk or other game in season in sportsmanlike fashion. It is naturally in the heart ot a boy to do this, but it should be weeded out and we think is being done FROM THE PINE WOODS. Hyomei's Aromatic Air is Guar anteed to Cure Catarrb or Cost Nothing. When nsing the Hyomei treatment, the air yon breathe is like that on the moan tains high above sea level where the pine woods fill the air with aromatic healing that gives health and strength to those suffering trom diseases of the respiratory organs. Breathed through the neat pocket inhaler that comes with every out fit, the healing balsams of Hyomei reach the most remote air cells ot the throat, nose and lungs, destroying all catarrhal germs and giving quick relief and cure. Hyomei has performed almost miracn Ions cures of catarrb, otten restoring health in cbronio cases that had given up all hope of recovery. Its best action is at the start of the disease, when the breath is becoming offensive and when dis cbarges from the nose, droppings in the throat and frequent sneezing or spasmod ic coughing begin to make life a burden. At the first symptom of catarrhal trouble use Hyome and see how quickly you get reliel and cure.

Easy Calculation In Standardizing or Blending Mi Ik. "Standardized milk" and "blended milk" are terms applied to milk which has been so modified as to contain a definite amount of one or more of Its constituents. The most important and at the same time the most variable constituent is fat. To standardize milk as regards fat it is simply necessary to add or remove a certain amount of this constituent or to add or remove a certain amount of skim milk. Ono thousand six hundred pounds of milk containing 2.2 per cent of fat may be standardized to 4 per cent of fat by re moving 320 pounds of skim milk. A simple method of determining the DIAGBAM FOB MIXING MILK. amounts of skim milk and whole milk or of milks containing different per centages of fat which should be mixed in order to secure a product having a desired fat content is given by Profess or K. A. Pearson in a reading course bulletin of Cornell university. . Draw a rectangle and write at the two left hand corners the percentages of fat in the fluids to be mixed and in the center place the required percent age. At the upper right hand comer put the number which represents the dif ference between the two numbers standing in line with it i. e., the num ber in the center and the one at the lower left hand corner. At the lower right hand corner put the number that represents the difference between the two numbers in line with it. Now let the upper right hand number refer to the upper left aud the lower light hand to the lower left. Then the two right hand numbers show the relative quan tities of the fluids represented at the left hand corners that must be com bined to give a fluid of the desired standard which Is represented in the center. If it is wanted to mix the milks from two dairies testing 4.9 per cent fat and B.5 per cent fat to produce a 4.6 per cent milk, the diagram shows these milks must be mixed in the proportion of 1.1 to .3 or 11 to 3. Thus: If we have 120 pounds of the 4.9 per cent milk, we must mix with it 32.7 pounds of 3.5 per cent milk, as is shown by this proportion: 11:3 :: 120: 32.7. Propagating Ferns. Where division is possible it is the easiest and most economical method of propagation and should be practiced Jnst before the fern starts into growth. 4.9 1.1 35 05 GOOD ROADS LORE. How Even a Faw Improved Highways Help the Farmer. - Mathematical good roads lore and the farmer's welfare are thus treated by W. Pierrepont White in the Outing Magazine: - Railroad officials state that in a fairly level country, such as Indiana or Ohio, a steam railroad will have suffi cient freight to haul to make it a safe financial Investment if it receives the freight produced from the farms for a distance of five miles on either side of the steam road and the road is long enough. In other words, steam roads in rich agricultural sections are profit able investments if located ten miles apart and will not disastrously inter fere with the business of each other in securing local freights. T.he cost of transportation on dirt roads is figured at $2.50 for the hauling of one ton teu miles, or a cost of 25 cents per ton per mile, and by improving the highways with gravel or macadam and establish ing proper grades each wagon in place of carrying one ton will be enabled to carry with the same team three or four tons iu less time than the onelon was formerly carried the ten miles to market, and that, too, for the same price of $2.50 for the haul, thus reduc ing the cost to 6 or 8 cents per ton per mile. The following table shows the cost of hauling product five miles, which gives readily to the eye the rea son why a longer haul than five miles is not profitable unless the product hauled is of a greater than ordinary value to the usual product Carried: $1.25 will haul a ton Cost per mile. 5 miles on a common road 25 12 to 15 miles on a well made stone road 12 25 miles on a trolley road 05 250 miles on a steam railway... .005 1,000 miles on a steamship 00012 It can be mathematically demonstrat ed and actually shown to the eye by the use of highway maps that the im provement of from 8 per cent to 16 per cent of the total highway mileage of a state, being the main highways which follow the natural valleys or are arbi trarily established in level sections, will when improved leave no farm far ther away than five miles from the main highways. Therefore the Im provement of a comparatively small percentage of the total mileage is of a certain and positive value to the entire agricultural interests of the state, and It Is proper that these roads should be built and maintained at state expense as rapidly as may be permitted with out the creation of a burdensome tax rate upon the people. Sunshine In the Pigpen. The central hog house is not good for sows to farrow in during the early spring, say February and March, ac cording to an Iowa swine grower. "A hog house like that," he says, "is too damp and too cold. Dampness is the starting point of thumps. It is very difficult to get sunshine into the pens, especially those in the north row. Sun Bhine in a pigpen is the whole secret of success in the raising of ea-ly pigs r lllinery! The OLD RELIABLE Millinery Has a new hat for every woman and girl in Benton county.
