TEN GREATEST
LIVING MEN,
Result of Views Obtained by
tbe Strand Magazine.
EDISON GETS FIRST HONORS,
POLITICAL NOTES.
Federal patronage 1s to bo the
mainspring of Mr. Taft's campaign
for the nomination. This much is
evident, say progressive Congress
man, from tho manner in which the
campaign has started out. The plac
ing of Representative Burke, of
South Dakota, at tho head of the
Republican Congressional Commit
tee, In the eyes of these congress
men, keeps tho shadow of the pa
tronage club ever above their heads.
The resignation of Representa
tive McKinley, as chairman of tho
committee, done, it was stated, that
no criticism of the committee mig t
arlso through having tho chairman
manage tho President's campaign,
lias done nothing to dispell the men
ace of tho "Steam Roller," accord
ing to statements made at the Capi
tol. One of the progressive congress
man has stated that so long as Pen
rose, Crane, Smoot and Cannon, all
post-graduates of the stand-pat
school, have anything to do with the
Taft campaign, the Congressmen
who are seeking renomlnatlon may
expect the Congressional Committee
to exert more or less pressure.
That the Taft managers realize
that every resource must be called
upon to nominate the President, is
made evident by an analysis of the
electoral votes in the various states.
Twenty-three or tlie 4 8 states now
'have Republican governors. Tho
vote of these states in the electoral
college totals 238. With 331 votes
in tho electoral college and 2tiG
necessary to a holco, tho Republi
cans v. ill need only 28 additional
votes, providing they can hold the
states in which they now have the
governorship, to carry tho next
Presidential election.
The governors of Kansas, Mlchl
gan. Missouri, Nebraska, New Hamp
siiire. South Dakota, West Virginia
and Wyoming have openly joined the
movement Tor tho nomination of Col.
Roosevelt. The aggregation elector
al votes of those states is 71. In
California, Illinois, Iowa, Minnesota,
Now Mexico. Wnshlnirtnn :inrl Wis.
consin thero Is a decided opposition wether on the lists of Will Crooks, M.
to n'resiuent Tart. Tiieso states nave
an nsgregnto of 90 electoral votes.
From this it will be seen that ICC
elciioral votes form 15 normally
Republican states are put in the
Roosevelt Third In Favor Several
Other Americans Also Named Only
English and European Opinions Wore
Invited.
America has emerged triumphantly
from a symposium of representative
opinions on the question, "Who tire
the ten grentest men now nliveV" pub
lished in the Strnnd Magazine. Or
those asked by tho ningnzlno to Rtnte
their views not one was nn Amcricnn
otily Englishmen nnd natives of the
Continental countries of Europe were
included.
Vet nn American received the lar
gest number of votes, another wns
third In favor, and seven other Amer
icans were mentioned by nt least one
of the prominent men who were ques
tioned. First honors went to Thomas A. Edi
son. Tlie next most popular American
was Theodore Roosevelt. Here Is n
list of tile most popular names on the
various lists, arranged nceording to the
number of votes received by each:
Edison, Kipling. Rocwovelt, Marconi.
Lister, Ch unborlnln. Kobcrts, William
II. and Metchnlkoll.
Owing to vagueness In some of the
replies, the tenth place lies between '
Lord Itoebcry, Admiral Togo and .
Lord Kitchener. 1
Other Americans appearing on the 1
lists are President Taft, John S. Sar
gent, Wilbur Wright, Andrew Car-
iiejrie, J. Plerpont Morgan, Robert E. j
Penry and John D. Rockefeller. I

Leroy-Beaulieu, Paul Hervleu nnd M. .
A. Mezarel of the French academy;
Max Beerbohm, Harry de Wlndt, Mr.
Burdett-Coutts and Miss Braddou. !
Most of these submitted complete
lists. Others, however, simply jotted
down a few names of men who tho.
thought should figure among the ten ,
greatest men alive without finishing
their lists. !
Americans figure strongly in the list '
of the Hon. Mr. Lowther, -who, finding !
It too difficult u task to make up his
mind ns to the ten greatest living men.

lows:
Emperor William II., Edison, Togo.

should figure In a llt of the ten great

THE COUNTY' FAHMEIt.
Headers of Tho Citizen have read
about my now breed of cattle, and
they'll read moro about 'cm soon,
hut Just nt prosont thoro's nnothor
now thing out In tho lino of cnttlo
and thoy wero discovered down In
Live Oak, California, by a Citizen
reader who went down there from
Wayne county. I received his letter
last Tuesday and will lot you read
it. He writes:
Live Oak, Cal.
Dear Wayne County Farmer:
I wish to wrlto you something
which may bo of Interest and bene
fit to yourself nnd Citizen renders.
Tho dairy men here havo for tho last
ton or fifteen years been troubled
witli bloating cows, many of which
died. Alfalfa, which produces on
an average of fourteen or fifteen tons
per aero and Is tho best milk and fat
producing feed, cnused this bloating,
even as cured liny, and could not bo
dispensed with, so It becamo neces
sary to have n man with tho herd
constantly to give the cows soda wa
ter and other remedies, or in extreme
cases to use a butc.ier knife and
carve n hole Into tholr stomachs and
Insert a piece of gas pipe, nut now
since tho soda supply is nearly ex
hausted and Iron Is expensive hero,
a professor of tho State Agricultural
School began experimenting with the
result. Ho took a piece of soft rub
ber some two and one-half inches
thick nnd at each end atta'ched a
short plcco of vulcanized rubber a
little larger than tho tube. In this
tube he placed a valve hold closed by
a spring. When tho stomach gen
erated moro gas than its ordinary
rapacity tho pressure overcame the
spring and let out tho bloat. It
was a grand success. This was sev
en years ago and the progency of ani
mals so improved are now born with
these exhausts already grown in
their anatomy.
Tho breed of cows described In
tho above letter must bo wonderful
and would be valuable here In
Wayne county when tho cows go out
on the clover in tho Spring and put
on a balloon-like appearance. The
Wayne County Farmer will make
further investigation of this and
probably arrange to have a 'herd
shipped up by express. Rut when 1
get them I shall experiment still
further and take advantage of tho
way led by the California professor,
who claims to be the inventor. In
these days of ballooning tho biggest
question is how to cut down the ex
penses of Inflating the balloons. My
Idea is to connect tho valves on
these cows to an air tank attached
to their backs, nnd in that way
catch all the gas that escapes. In
the evening these small tanks will bo
emptied into a large tank and a pipe
line from this large tank in the cow
stable will be run to the big cities
in the U. S., and sold at so much per
cowtui
of clover will sunnlv enough o-.is in I
make an Independent fortune, be-
sides other advantages that go with
It. I can put a small cylinder to the 1
tank on each cow and with a flyi
wheel and milking attachment make1
each cow do her own milking, butter
churning and feed grinding. When!
tho cows havo the tanks filled and i
get tired of walking they can step on
a prepared truck, put a bolt on the 1
hind sliart, get a steer to do tho
steering, toot their horns, and rldo
home from the clover field. It's sim
ply wonderful! In the busy season
we will run a belt to the cow stable
(our power house) from tho kitchen
and grind the coffee, beat the eggs,
-Xjoao puc 'sjpjMduiBi ou.i dn tuni
thing that Lena Is too lazy to do
herself. By breeding these cattle
with the power nttachment for a
number ot years, the calves will
eventunlly bo born with the .full
equipment, just as they now are with
valves In California, and It will be
only a matter of another twenty
