P. Davis of Illinois, assistant chief of the middle division of the pension office, | and of Samuel B. Hersey of Massa- chusetts, a: 1 ern division. ant k of the west- Davis reeeived $1,798 back pension, and had his pension increased from $12.50 per month to $25 50. Hersey’s pension was in- ereased from $16 to $30 per month. These grabbers in the employment of the pension department aud so far fiye of the leaders have been ask- ed to resign, but all have stubbornly refused and it is announced that they will contest their claims to the positions they hold. The commis- sioner, however, holds that th2 re- rating was irregular and unjust and that the whole pack must go, and his superior, secretary Noble, en- dorses his action.

Helena, Mont., Nov. —Gover- | nor Toole has decided to admit to the legislative halls only such mem- bers elect as hold certificates from ounty clerks. This will result in the admission of ten democrats from Silver Bow county and give the democrats control of the house, the senate being a tie. The gover- nor issued a proclamation to this effect this afternoon and caused a tonaternation among the republicans. ‘The United States marshal recently appointed by President Harrison has sworn in alot of special deputies. Ut is feared there will be bloodshed over the organization of the legisla- ture. 99 The Kansas City Times ran a spe- cial train Sunday morning from that city to Brookville, in western Kan- sasa distance of 200 miles in five hours, counting the time lost in stope this would be about fifty miles anhour.

But matter of fact it will not pay to give the average rub stock such treatment. There is one way to make money from stock and only one way. That is by keeping good stock. Every body who breeds scrub stock loses money every day that he lives; and this is true even though he succeeds in making a profit which in hundreds of cases, however, he never does make. He loses money because with just about the same expenditure upon pure bred stock or high grades he could make three or four times more money than he can possibly make with scrub stock. Every body who knows any thing about the subject knows that this is true; and it is more to the in- terest of the breeder of poor stock to tell him so and convince him of the truth of what you tell him, than it is to any body else. The Rural and Stockman is always trying to induce men to purchase thoroughbred stock. Except that the prosperity of the farming public helps us to be prosperous it is of no inter- est to us to have a man breed up his cattle, horses, sheep or swine, or to have him sell his herd of common stock and replace it with thorough- breds. Our constantly repeated ad- vice in this direction may help the breeders, but even they would get rid of all their stock if we never said a word in favor of blooded stock. It is because it is to the interest of the man who will take our advice that we keep urging people to get better stock. We know that if the farmer will do as we ask him to do in this regard he will make money by it. It will take years to accomplish it but the scrub must go. In time there will be no earthly use for such stock. The meat markets of the world will not touch it It will not pay in the dairy and nobody will think it will, and the most of it will certainly never be kept for ornament. For the benefit of its readers, no jour- nal should ever give any uncertain sound upon a subject of this kind. Breed up, should be the watchword and no one ever should be foolish enough to say or think that the scrub can hold its own in the competition with the thoroughbreds.
