TEDDY FOLLOWED
LEAD OF PENROSE
New York Platform Ilia Same as
Pennsylvania's,
ON ALL NATIONAL ISSUES
Republicans of Two Great States to
Battle Under the Banner of Taft and
a United Party.
Pennsylvania salutes Now York and
congratulates the Emplro State- for fol
lowing tho lead of tho old Koystono
commonwealth.
Under the leadership of Colonel
Itoosovelt tho Republican convention
recently hold at Saratoga followed al
most literally the planks of the plat
form bearing upon national issues
adopted by tho Republican state con
vention at Harrisburg, with Doles Pen
rose as the leading spirit in the party
organization.
In their declarations of fealty to tho
time honored principlos of the Repub
lican party, their commendations of
the splendid and remarkable work of
the Tuft administration, and the plac
ing upon record of tho progressive
legislation of the present Republican
congress, and especially their praise
of the new tariff act, as not only fram
ed to protect American capital and
labor, but to Insure largely Increased
returns for tho support of tho federal
government. Now York Republicans,
with Roosevelt dominating their con
vention, were no more earnest nor em
phatlc than were the Republicans of
this stato, who woeks before had
worked in accord under tho leadership
of Penrose.
Two Conventions Contrasted.
The Pennsylvania convention was
tho most harmonious ever held in the
history of the stato; thoro was not a
dissenting voice to any plank In tho
platform either in committee or on
the floor of the convention, and an un
precedented feature was the fact that
not an opposing candidate was placed
In nomination and not a vote was cast
against any one of the men nominated
on the state ticket.
"While the New York gathering was
most spectacular and sensational,
Toddy finally had his way, and his way
as far as the platform was concerned,
at least, was "the Pennsylvania way."
Roosevelt and Penrose have been
fast friends from the time of their col
lege days. No president could have
troated Penrose in the matter of per
sonal consideration and patronage bet
ter than did Roosovelt. That under
their direction Republicans of these
neighboring states will work in unison
to promote the general cause of Re
publicanism may bo takon for granted.
In close congressional districts along
tho border line, tho Republican com
mittees of both states will work to
gether to defeat the common enemy,
the Democratic party.
Roosevelt Appreciates Pennsylvania.
Roosovelt within a few weeks, in
his speech in Pittsburg, gave evidence
of this appreciation of the work of tho
Republican party In Pennsylvania,
when he was unstinted in bis praise
of tho school laws, tho liberal appro
priations to public schools and to char
Hies, the legislation to protect tho
lives of employes, for tho conservation
of the forests and tho water ways and
tho other meritorious laws upon tho
statute books.
It has been a matter of comment
that the ono issue for which Roosevelt
fought hardest in the New York con
vention, that of direct primaries, has
already been met under the Penrose
leadership, and along with the uniform
primaries, Pennsylvania has tho cor
rupt proctlces act and the personal
registration law, which were passed
by Republican legislators and signed
by a Republican governor.
President Taft is showing a keen in
tcrest In the success of tho Republl
can party in every stato in the Union,
and his Bpeoch at tho dinner of the
National Republican League In New
York attests the concern ho has for
the election of every Republican noml
neo for congress.
Penrose Confers With Taft.
Senator Penrose had a coudIb of ner
sonal Interviews with President Tnft
In Washington laBt woek, following his
official conferences with him and PoBt
master General Hitchcock regarding
the establishment of postal savinKS
banks. As chairman of tho commltteo
on postofllces and post roads, Senator
Penrose has given tho subject of pos
tal banks much study and ho savs he
la pleased with tho progress being
mado by tho postal donartmont to nro
vido for this Innovation. Ho is of tho
opinion that tho proposed system Is In
advanco of tho methods employed In
older countries.
Senator Penroso's conferences with
tho president woro mado the occasion
of much newspaper comment. Tho
Washington, D. C, Evening Star, an
Independent paper, directing attention
to the strength of tho Republican par
ty in Pennsylvania, made this state
ment: "Senator Penroso, since the wiping
out of tho Now York "Old Guard"
bosses, romalns, neat to Theodore
Roosevelt himsolf, tho greatest politi
cal chieftain in tho country. Undis
puted In his control of the Republican
organisation of tho surest Republican
itftto in tho Union, Senator Penroso
watelns with Intuiwst tho factional
itrlfo and contention nil over tho coun
try. Tho storm has not ronched hie
own stnte, and ho and his organiza
tion nro pnsslng through tho most
quiet year politically thoy have had In
Bomo tlmo. It It so placid that Sena
tor I'onroio hns bad llttlo to do in th?
way of directing tho leaders through
out tho state."
Penrose scorns to bo ono of the few
rromlnont men in tho Republican par
ty who stnnd well with "tho Old
Guard," nnd who nro on Intimate torme
with Roosovelt. It Is believed that the
rolotlonshlp between Roosovelt and
Penroso has more of a personal side
but while he was In tho White House
there wns no ono with whom Rooso
volt talked more confidentially upon
lmportnnt political mattors than he
did with Penrose.

ACCURATE PASSING ESSENTIAL
With the Direct Pass From Center, a
Legitimate Play, the Coaches Have

Mlxup of Signals Expectod.
This Is tho yunr sticklers In tho rudi

ter a legitimate play tho coaches who
huvo been in n habit of rushing thMr
men into Intricate formations and
trusting to time to bring skillful and
clean handling will have to roviso all
their methods.
As Walter Camp has pointed out.
It will probably bo weeks beforo tho
real worth of the new gamo enn be de

rect passes from center sounds easy
enough. Any number of ambitious
pigskin hustlers are now willing to

things it Is probable that almost every
pass will go direct from center to the
enrrier.
Look For Many Fumbles.
Tho chances for fumbling nro in
finite It will take time for a vast
majority of tho centers to get their
passes, many of which will bo mado
nt all sorts of angles, under control.
Misunderstood signals, too, will bo
a source of danger. Where tho quar

to remedy a slip-up of this charac
ter. Somo ono nt least received tho

That Is tho main reason why most

but It was for tho extrn work In tho
elementary stages of tho game that all

DAIRY- ft
CREAMERY
SIX CAUSES ,OF POOR BUTTER.
Includes Improper Handling of Cows,.
Wrong Feed and Sanitation.
Tho following aro somo of tho
causes for poor quality of butter:
1. Some of tho creamery managers
do not instruct their patrons as to tho
proper handling of their cows and tho
milk nnd cream.
2. Garlic and wild onions aro re
ported to bo causes In the spring and
fall of tho year.
8. Thero Is a lack of proper sanita
tion on the nverage dairy farm, tho
most doflcicnt points of which are
lack of proper light, ventilation nnd
cleanliness of dairy barns, milking
unclean udders with unclean handB,
use of unstoriie dairy utensils and
Improper cooling of milk.
4. There is a lack of technical
training In dairy lines nmong butlor
makers, which would enable them to
proporly grade tho milk as it is re
ceived at tho creamery, pasteurize It,
make good Btarter, proporly ripen
cream, control their overrun and in
struct thotr patrons in methods of pro
ducing sanitary milk and cream.
5. The majority of creamery mon
aro engaged In other occupations and
dovoto only n part of their time to tho
creamery business.
6. Tho majority of creamery pa
trons are engaged In diversified farm
Ins, and dairying is only a side lino
with them.
For Cream Test Balance.
A simple and sensitive weighing
instrument to bo known as the Wis
consin hydrostatic cream balance has
been devised at the agricultural ex
periment station of tho University of
Wisconsin. This instrument meets
the long recognized need for a slm
plo and accurate method of weighing
cream In the Dabcock test bottle for
testing. The ordinary cheap scales
are inaccurate, and the more delicate
oalanccs are too expensive for general
use by farmers.
Tho new invention consists of a
specially devised brass float, similar
to a dydromcter, which is placed In a
f553iO
CHEAJI BALANCE.
cylinder of water. Tho Instrument
floats steadily in a vertical position,
and supports a platform on which a
cream bottle and a nine-gram weight
ore placed. Small, one-tenth gram
weights are placed on tho platform
until tho float sinks to a lino marked
on tho spindle. The nlno-gram weight
is then put into tho bottle with a
pipette In a sufficient amount to
again sink tho float to a lino of tho
spindle. This gives tho weight ac
curately and the devise is bo sensi
tive that it Is affected by a single drop
of cream. Tho woighing can be done
rapidly, however.
Sweet Cream from Sour Milk.
A rather unusual but successful
process of making sweot salable
cream from sour milk has been tried
at tho Virginia Experiment Station.
The 'result seems to point a way for
tho disposal of milk received in bad
condition at creameries, or for somo
reason hold too long in largo dairies,
or oven for tho disposal of milk re
ceived by city contractors and not dis
posed of to the ordinary trade. Tho
method was to skim a very hoavy
cream, fifty per cent, and to add to
It sweet Bklmmllk as to innko a cream
of about twenty per cent, pasteuriz
ing tho mixture nnd cooling it Imme
diately to forty degreos, then ship
ping the resultant cream rather than
to manufacture It into butter. This
product wns shipped to a market thirty-six
hours distant and gavo excel
lent satisfaction. Othor lota woro
shipped about as far with entirely
satisfactory results. It was found
that ovon though tho milk was quite
sour and oven stale tho fat could bo
oxtractod and treated by this method
so as to produce a porfoctly satisfac
tory product

Male Fashions In 1850.
Male fashions of 60 yearB ago had
other discomforts besides long hair.
Trousers were tight nnd buttoned un
der tho foot with broad straps. Every
man who aspired to be well dressed
wore his coat so high In tho collar
that the back of the hat rested upon
It This fashion was so prevalent
that, according to Sir Algernon West
"every hat had n crescent of cloth on
the back of the brim to prevent tho
rubbing of the beaver, or Imitation
beaver, of which the hat was made,
for silk hats were not then Invented."
And from tho same authority wo
learn that "opera hats were unknown,
and In the evening a folding chapeau
bras was always carried under tho
arm. Nobody but an apothecary or a
solicitor would have dreamed of leav
ing his hat in the hall of the house
where ho was calling or dining."
The Elgin Marbles.
These famous sculptures are so
called from the name of the English
Lord who took them from Athens to
London. When Lord Elgin wns ap
pointed Ambassador to the Porte, in
179D, his attention was called to the
Imminent danger of destruction under
which tho Athenian sculptures lay
and at tho flrst opportunity he haa
them taken from their places In the
Parthenon nnd conveyed to England.
They were finally acquired by tho Brit
ish Government and in 1816 were de
posited In the BritiBh Museum, where
they are treasured with almost re
ligious care.
