Public Men and Private Cit/zens Unite
In Pi»/ing Tribute to the Colonel’*
Patriotism and Tremendous
Influence for Good.
The death of Col. Theodore Roose-
velt called fortli u flood of eulogies
from his countrymen who recognized
his greatness of soul, his unadulterated
Americanism and the powerful influ-
ence for good of his deeds and words.
Some of these tributes follow:
SECRETARY OF STATE LANSING—
The dentil of Cot. Roosevelt r moves
from our national life a ureut Ameri-
can. Ills vigor of mind and ceaseless
energy made him a conspicuous figure
In public affairs. Friends and enemies
alike recognised the force of Ills per-
sonality and the great Influence lie had
In molding public thought and purpose.
His patriotism and devotion to his
country will long be remembered by
all Ills ft How cltlbens. while Ills
sturdy Americanism will be an Inspira-
tion to future generations.
ACTING SECRETARY OF STATE
FRANK L POL«K—He was one of the
most striking figure* In the history of
thlB country, and. In fact, of his tlmo
It Is Impossible to measure today what
he did to arouse the political con-
science of the American people.
NEWTON n. BAKER, Secretary of
War—Ills relations to the wavy and to
the army are. of course, a part of the
history of those two services, and dur-
ing his terms as president he brought
his powerful personality and energy to
bear upon economic problems of the
greatest moment. I do not know of
any career which combines so many
diversified and Intensively pursued ac-
tivities— frontiersman, explorer, natu-
ralist. seaman, soldier, executive and
publicist. In each of these relations
he was conspicuous and left his mark.
JOSEPHUS DANIELS. Secretary of
the Navy—He has blazed new paths
and refused to be fettered by conven-
tions that other distinguished men rec-
ognized. Original, forceful, courageous,
he was the monitor of millions of his
fellow countrymen, who will miss his
Inspiring leadership Believing In him-
self and the cause he espoused, he
threw himself Into every conflict with
every power sf mind and body
FRANKLIN K. LANE, Secretary of
the Interior—Colonel Roosevelt was a
great man a very great man—great In
his soul, great In his personality, great
In his conception of America s place In
the world He will sit at one of the
high tables.
CARTER GLASS. Secretary of the
Treasury—Colonel Roosevelt was an
extraordinary flgure and leaves a leg-
acy of patriotic endeavor and useful
achievement of which thexe who most
respected and honored him will always
be proud
DIRECTOR GENERAL M'ADOO —
Colonel Roosevelt'B prodigious activi-
ties made him one of the most conspic-
uous figures In puhlll life. We are too
near the event to place a just sstlmate
on hls life and career, but he will al
ways be distinguished for one great
achievement—the construction of the
Panama canal.
FORMER PRESIDENT TAFT—The
country can III afford In this critical
period of history to lose on* who has
done and could In the next decade
have done so much for It and human
Ity. We have lost a great patriotic
American, a great world figure, the
most commanding personality In our
public life since Lincoln. I mourn hls
going as a personal loss.
SENATOR LENROOT of Wisconsin—
I regard Colonel Roosevelt's death as a
very great calamity for the nation.
Hls usefulness Is familiar to all. but I
believe that hla greatest usefulness
might have been In the future.
SENATOR LEWIS of Illinois—The
death of Colonel Roosevelt Is the loss
of a great man. of a great force, and
the loss of a great benefit to America.
Whatever differences men may have
with Colonel Roosevelt on party lines
or political principles, nil must certify
that hls fight for cleanliness and Integ-
rity In public life did much to rid the
nation of corruption In public affairs.
A’l must admit that hls labors to force
corporate monopoly to yield to private
welfare and personal rights started
this country upon the course of justice.
SENATOR HARDING of Ohio—He
was one of the foremost citizens of the
world. In a most extraordinary era.
and he was the most vigorous and
courageous American of hla time.
There Is no direct legatee to hls vast
political estate.
SENATOR KENTON of Iowa — Hls
virile American utterances were help-
ing to bring order out of diplomatic
chaos. In my judgment he was the
greatest American since Abraham Lin-
coln.
SENATOR NEW of Indiana—Intel-
lectually he was In the first rank
among those who have figured In our
public life, and for versatility and ap-
plication he was without an equal. He
was a 'rue patriot, a thorough Ameri-
can at all times and In all respects.
SENATOR MARTIN of Vlrglnla-He
met all the responsibilities of citizenship
In the most courageous manner. A char-
acteristic of nls life was hls unqualified
courage. He never had a conviction In
hls life that he did not have the courage
to follow It. He waa % man of unlimited
courage, of limitless resources, and of un-
bounded patriotism.
SENATOR LODGE of Massachusetts—
He was a great patriot, a great Ameri-
can. a great man. He was devoted
throughout hls life to hls country. He
tried always to be a servant of human-
ity
SENATOR KELLOGG of Minnesota-
He was a gr.-st commoner, who in hls
heart cherished the causes of the masse*
—a man of the mort Intense patriotism
who placed the advancement of humanity
and the cause of hls country above all
other considerations.
SENATOR JOHNSON of California-
The greatest American of our generation
has passed away. He had a truer vision,
a higher courage, a wiser statesmanship
than any man of our time. I cannot
peak of him In ordinary terms. To me
lie had no parallel—none approached him
In virility or force or profound knowledge
of varied subjects.
SENATOR CHAMBERLAIN of Oregon
—A truer, more loyal American never
lived.
SENATOR KNOX of Pennsylvania-Hls
life waa so abundant, so open, and so fa-
miliar that observations at this time upon
his career as a stuK-sman would bt super-
fluous If not misplaced. He was America's
greatest living human asset.
REPRESENTATIVE MEDILL M'COR-
MICK -He was the greatest American of
our time. We are hls debtors for hls tre-
mendous labors in the regeneration of our
public life, for the quickening of our na-
tional spirit, for the reanlmatlon of our
patriotism.
REPRESENTATIVE JAMES ft MANN
—I think Roosevelt was the most wonder-
ful Individual character In the world. He
was a student of mankind and so prodi-
giously active that hls Influence was tre-
mendous and hls loss will he deeply felt
here and In other countries.
REPRESENTATIVE FESS, chairman
of the Republican congressional commit-
tee—Hls Heath at this moment Is a na-
tional calamity. Never were hls talents
so much needed a* now.
FORMEP. SPEAKER CANNON—Col-
onel Roosevelt's place In history will be
as one of the great presidents of the re-
public. He kept In closer touch with the
legislative department than any other
president I have known.
REPRESENTATIVE QILLETT of Mas-
sachusetts-Colonel Roosevelt was the
most remarkable man America has pro-
duced since the Cfvll war. Ills general
knowledge was unhounded, hls personal
magnetism extraordinary.
REPRESENTATIVE 8H ALLEN BER-
GER of Nebraska—It Is Inexpressibly sor-
rowful that he should he taken away at
this crisis In the uffalrs of government
and mankind
ft KIP RESENT ATI VE SHERLEY. chair-
man of the house appropriations commit-
tee—Mr. Roosevelt was one of the really
great men of hls age and above all else
was wholly an American.
CHARLES EVANS HUGHES — The
death of Colonel Roosevelt Is an Irrepar.
able loss to tha nation. Hls virility and
courage were a constant Inspiration. He
personified the Americanism of which he
was the most doughty champion He de-
manded the recognition and performance
of our national obligation In the war.
Back of all that was done In the war
was the pressure of hls rslentless Insis-
tence. In response to hls patriotic call
lay the safety of civilization and In this
hour of complete victory the whole world
Is hls debtor.
SAMUEL GOMPERS, president of the
American Federation of l^abor—I regard
the death of Colonel Roosevelt a very
great loss. He rendered service of Incal-
culable benefit to the world. I knew him
for thirty-five years In all hls public ac-
tivities. I worked with him and every
one, even those who differed with him,
conceded hls sincerity of purpose, hls high
motives and hls anxiety to serve the peo
pie.
WILLIAM JENNING8 BRYAN-The
rare qualities which won for Colonel
Roosevelt a multitude of devoted follow
ers naturally arrayed against him a host
of oponents. but hls death puts an end to
controversy xnd he will be mourned by
foe a* well as by friend. He was a great
American and made a profound Impres
slon In the thought of hls generation. Hls
picturesque career will form a fascinating
chapter In our nation's history.
CHIEF JUSTICE WHITE-Mr. Roose
velt's death brings to me a sense of deep
sorrow, of personal loss. While he was
president hls kindly consideration never
failed and many opportunities were af
forded me for observing the highness of
hls Innate Ideals and hls courage, all of
which combined to make him the distin-
guished. not to say phenomenal, man he
was.
ASSOCIATE JUSTICE WILLIAM R.
DAY—Every one appreciates that we have
lost one of the greatest Americans, one
of the flrst citizens of the world, at a
time when we can 111 afford to lose him
MAJ GEN. LEONARD WOOD—The
death of my friend, Theodore Roosevelt,
brings to me great personal lose and sor-
row. but keen and deep as these are. they
are but the sorrow and loss of an lndl
vldual. The national loss Is Irreparable,
for hla death comes at a lime when hls
services to this nation can 111 be spared
Never was America more In need of hls
frankness and courage, hls honest criti-
cism, and farse-lng wisdom than at pres
ent. Unselfish loyalty, honest and fear
less criticism always characterized the
life and work of Theodore Roosevelt and
he lived and worked always for hls coun-
try’s best interest. While we shall not
have the living voice and presence, we
shall always have the example of hie
life.
PRESIDENT POINCARE of France—
Friend of liberty, friend of France, Roose
velt has given, without counting eons and
daughters, hls energy that liberty may
H We are grateful to him. We wish
to express to Mrs. Roosevelt our most
sincere condolence.
J .! JU88ERAND, French ambassador
to the United States—The unexpected
death of one who has upheld all hls life
the principles of virile manhood, straight-
forward honesty and fearlessness will be
mourned all over the world, nowhere more
sincerely than in France, whose cause he
upheld In her worst crisis In a way that
shall never be forgotten.
HENRY WHITE, one of the American
peace commissioners—I have heard of Mr.
Roosevelt's death with deep sorrow be
cause of the loss to the nation of s great
public servant and to myself of a lifelong
friend.
HERBERT C. HOOVER - America Is
poorer for the loss of a great cltlien, the
world for the loan of a great man Hls
virility and Americanism has been one of
our national treasures.
COL. E. M HOUSE—The entire world
will share the grief which will be felt
In the United States over the death of
Theodore Roosevelt. He was the one
virile and courageous leader of hls gen-
eration and will jive In history as one of
our r-ea»es' presidents.
GOVERNOR LOWDKN of Illinois
The nation has suffered a loss It can-
not well afford at this time Theodore
Roosevelt has been a dominant force 111
American life for thirty years Dur-
ing all hls life he ha9 sought and
striven for a better, luster society. His
robust and fearless Americanism was
like a bugle call to his countrymen,
wherever danger threatened from
within or without. Whether In office
or private life, he was a leader of
thought and an Insplrer of action.

birds, however, remain during the cold
season and are able to maintain life
by eating vegetable food, as the seeds

ing the growth of the next year.

Department of Agriculture Offers to
Tell Agriculturist Whether Inhabi-
tants of Fields Are Doing
More Good Than Harm.
Whether a bird is beneficial or In-
jurious to growing crops depends al-
most entirely upon what It eats. If
It consumes harmful Insects the bird
Is nn ally of the farmer; If It feeds
largely on growing crops it may be
an enemy. Not all birds are bene-
ficial, but the useful kinds far out-
number the Injurious, and so great is
their value ns insect destroyers In the
United States that, to them the United
Stntes department of agriculture gives
credit of being one of the greatest con-
trolling factors in limiting the devel-
opment of Insect pests and in prevent-
ing many disastrous outbreaks.
In the case of species which are
abundant or which feed to some extent
on crops, the question of their aver-
age diet becomes one of supreme Im-
portnnee and only by stomach exami-
nations can It be satisfactorily solved.
Field observations hnve proved to be
Inconclusive. Birds are often accused
of eating this or that product of cul-
tivation, when nn examination of the
stomachs shows the accusation to be
false.
Aid Offered to Farmers.
The biological survey of the United
States department of agriculture lins
conducted In the past few years a sys-
tematic Investigation of the food of
the species most common about farms
and gardens and offers to supply Infor-
mation to any farmer in doubt ns to
whether his birds are an asset or a
liability.
Within certain limits birds eat the
kind of food that Is most accessible,
especially when their natural food Is
scarce or wanting. Thus they some;
times Injure the crops of the farmer
who has unintentionally destroyed
their nuturnl food in his Improvement
of swamp or pasture. Much of the
damage done by birds and complained
of by farmers and fruit growers arises
from this very cause. The berry-bear-
Ing shrubs and seed-bearing weeds
have been cleared away, and the birds
have no recourse but to attack the cul-
tivated grain or fruit which has re-
placed their natural food supply.
Destroy Many Insects.
The great majority of land birds
subsist upon insects during the period
of nesting and molting, and also feed
their young upon them during the first
w weeks. Many species live almost
utlrely upon Insects, taking vegetable
food only when other subsistence falls.
It Is thus evident that In the course of
a yeur birds destroy au Incalculable
number of Insects, and It Is difficult to
overestimate the value of their serv-
ices In restraining fhe great tide of in-
sect life.
In winter, in the northern part of
the country, Insects become scarce or
entirely disappear. Many species of
Farms Way to Success.
On farm demonstration work nnd
the careful study nnd practice of the
best farm methods Is what a former
store clerk In Texas bases hls clnlm to
success. This man, tiring of Indoor
life, got in touch with the state exten-
sion service and started In to farm. All
the money he had was $150, but there
was no lack of energy and ambition In
hls makeup—and that goes a long way
in farming. '
That $150, hard-earned money, too,
was the first payment on 100 acres;
nnd a very poor horse and one cow
comprised the initial live stock.
Nerve and Integrity, though, an-
swered ns security for another horse,
nnd careful management and good
financial judgment produced results
sufficient to enable this hard-working
demonstrator to muke the second pay-
ment on hls place in the fall. This
was largely from receipts from butter,
chickens nnd eggs.
This Is the account of the rest of
the achievements, told by the county
agent:
“The second year he bought a better
team and was enabled to cultivate hls
crop In the ‘better way,’ ns he ex-
pressed It. The second year he met
hls third payment nnd lmd some sur-
plus funds left and was In a position
to go on a cash basis the next year.
The fourth payment on his farm was
met promptly nnd with u larger sur-
plus of money than before. Besides, he
had a number of good cows, hogs and
horses, and u flock of chickens nnd
turkeys. From this year’s work he hud
sold $1,650 worth of cotton and seed,
marketed $720 worth of feed, besides
having enough on hand for farm use
next year, sold $40 worth of poultry
nnd now has over 100 hens on the
farm. He has suflic.'eut hogs for hls
meat nnd will offer for sale about $200
worth besides.
"He has on tl fnrm $500 worth of
horse stock, has some good milch cows
and has $1,250 on depogit to hls credit
In the local bank. Ho Is erecting a lit-
tle house and says that the furm and
Its happy associations are good enough
for him. The vital point of this story
of this farmer’s operations during the
past four years Is that he has paid
for hls fnrm, is free from debt, nnd
has placed himself upon a cash basis,
nnd has accumulated a surplus while
a neighbor on an adjoining farm of
640 acres Is barely making a living."

Bull Associations.
The first bull association In the Uni-
ted States was organized In 1908 by
the Michigan Agricultural college. It
was a co-operative venture similar to
those which have existed In Europe for
a long time. On July 1, 1917, there
were In this country 36 active associa-
tions In 17 states, with a total mem-
bership of 1,158, owning 189 pure-bred
bulls. These co-operative organiza-
tions enable the owners of small herds
to unite in the purchase of one good
bull, so thnt each may own a share in
a registered sire of high quality.
Though still In its Infancy, the co-
operative hull association n overaent
promises to become eventually n very
great factor in the improvement of
dairy cattle in the United States.

AVENGES BROTHER’S DEATH
Yankee In Desperate Hand-to-Hand
Encounter Kills Hun Who Had
Just Slain Brother.
Bristol, Tenn.—In n letter to rela-
tives here Claude Slagle, n local boy,
tells how he got the Hun that killed
Ills brother Frank. Both boys went
>ver the top side by side until the
ounger one. Frank, wns killed. The
Hun shot Frank through the heart and
then charged madly on Claude, who
ran his bayonet through the Hun’s
body, hut did not succeed in killing
him. A desperate hand-to-hand strug-
gle ensued, but Claude drew his revol-
ver and killed him with hls last bul-
let, avenging hls brother Frank, who
had fallen dead a few minutes be-
fore.
Reputation Is a great Inheritance.
Green feeds for poultry contain only
a small percentage of actual food nu-
trients, but are Important because of
their succulence and bulk, which
lighten the grain rations and assist in
keeplug the birds In good condition.
The poultrymen should secure n suffi-
cient supply of such feeds to last
through the winter months in sections
where growing green feeds cannot be
obtained. When chickens are fattened
without the use of milk, green feed
helps to keep them In good condition.
Cabbage, mangel wurzels, clover, al-
falfa and sprouted oats ure the green
feeds commonly used during the win-
ter. Cabbages do not keep as well In
ordinary cellars as mangel wurzels, so
where both of these feeds nre avail-
able the cabbages are fed first. They
are often suspended, while the mangel
wurzels are split and stuck on a nail
on the wall of the pen. Clover nnd
alfalfa may be fed as hay, cut Into
one-hnlf to one-lnch lengths, or may
be bought in the form of meal. Alfalfa
meal has a feeding analysis equal to
bran, but Is not as digestible on ac-
count of Its larger percentage of fiber.
Clover and nlfnlfa should be cut while
slightly Immature if they are to be
cured nnd fed to poultry. The leaves
and chaff from such hay are especially
adapted for poultry feeding.
Sprouted Oats Best.
One of the best and most readily ob-
tainable green feeds which is now be-
ing used extensively as a winter feed
Is sprouted oats. The oats can be
soaked for 12 hours In warm water
and spread out In a layer of from one-
ho!f to one and one-half Inches deep
on a floor or in a tray or tier of flats.
The trays should have openings In the
bottom or the bottoms should be made
of three-sixteenth Inch wire mesh, so
the water drains freely. Sprinkle the
oats twice dally and stir them every
other day until sprouts are well start-
ed. Unless the onts nre stirred mold
may set In, thus spolliug the feed.
They nre usually fed when the sprouts
are from 1 to 1% Inches long, although
some poultry men prefer allowing the
sprouts to grow to two or three Inches
long.
Plan for Sprouting Oats.
Oats need a moist, warm atmosphere
In which to sprout quickly, so that It
Is necessary to furnish heat or to keep
them in a warm room during the win-
ter, while they may be sprouted out of
doors during the rest of the year. It
takes from six to ten days to sprout
oats, depending upon the temperature
of the room. If the oats are inclined
to become moldy, notwithstanding the
fact that they are stirred during the
fii^t part of the sprouting period. It is
advisable to treat them with formalin.
A solution made in the proportion of
one pint formnlin to 30 gallons of wa-
ter should be sprinkled over und thor-
oughly mixed with the oats. A quan-
tity of oats can be treated at one-
time In this way, then covered with it
blanket for 24 hours, then dried by
airing nnd stirring, und placed in
sacks. Onts thus treated and dried
may be held for a long time for
sprouting.
Ventilate Poultry Hous*
Fresh air Is one of the prim* essen-
tials in poultry houses, nnd wumth se-
cured by keeping the house shut up
tightly Is not as desirable as a lower
temperature and some ventilation. A
house which gives satisfaction in
Maine will also give good results In
Texas or California, but it Is prefer-
able to build more open and conse-
quently less expensive houses In the
South than In the North.
The back and sides of the poultry
houses should be absolutely tight in
order to prevent drafts which may
cause colds In the flock. This leaves
only the front of the house of muslin
construction or entirely open. An open-
ing which can be closed by a sliutt
i
may be used to advantage In the rear
wall of a poultry house in the South,
or in growing houses in all parts of
this country, hut this should be con-
structed so that there will be no draft *
In cold weather. The front of the-*- L
house should be so liigh that the win-
dows or openings will allow the sun
to shine well back Into the Interior
during (he winter. Burlap, unbleached
muslin or lightweight duck cloth may
he used for curtains In the front. This
cloth should he thin enough to allow
a slow circulation of air without a
draft. This Is impossible If too heavy
a grade of duck cloth is used or If the
cloth Is oiled or painted.
For southern conditions, houses
with the fronts entirely open are well
adapted, and this type is used with
success in all sections of the United
Stntes. They require less attention
than houses where the ventllutlon Is
controlled by the use of curtains or
windows, hut in the northern half of
the United States the majority of
poultry keepers prefer to have purt or
all of the front of their poultry houses
under control, in order to keep the
snow, rnin nnd wind from beating In-
to the house and to protect the poul-
try during the colder weather. If the
curtain Is not attended to, however,
curtain-front houses may be less sat-
isfactory than the open-front type
even in northern latitudes.
A large amount of glass In the front
of the house mukes It warm during the
day hut cold ut night, as glass radiates
heat very rapidly. Some glass, how-
ever, Is helpful In providing light
when the curtains are closed. Some
ventilation should be given in a poul-
try house even on the coldest night.
It is usually best secured by leaving
a small window open or having inuslin
curtains In the front of -the house. If
the house Is shut up tightly without
any muslin curtains in the front there
Is a tendency for moisture to collect
in the house and condense on the raft-
ers and other woodwork on frosty
mornings. It Is not necessary to close
the muslin curtains In the front of the
house except In very cold or stormy
weather. Hens are protected by na-
ture with warm feathers and a high
body temperature, so that they are
better able to withstand dry, cold air
than warmer air which Is damp.
\
Fresh-laid eggs should not be
shaken. Handle them carefully and
they will keep fresh much longer.
The Dash Lamp.
If your dash lamp is not well shad-
ed you will find it helpful to substitute
a blue bulb for a clear one. The blue
light sufficiently illuminates the Instru-
ments but eliminates glare—trouble-
some to the driver.—Milestones.
Use Diamonds on Autos.
Few people associate diamonds with
the manufacture of motorcars, yet
thousands of these precious stones are
consumed each year to true up etnerv
wheels, nothing else being hard enough.
Protect Spark Plugs.
Spark plugs spares are frequently
Injured while being carried In the tool
box. An excellent method of guard-
ing against this is to slip each plug
Into a section of rubber hose, closing'
each end up with a bit of waste to
prevent the plugs working out.
