TAINTED MONEY
Gov. Campbell, in his last mes-
sage warns the people^ against re-
ceiving tainted money for education-
al institutions. Tainted money, we
take it, is money gained by ques-
tionable methods in business, or
derived by blood-sucking mo-
nopolists. Saif Jones believed in
taking money from all sources to
extend and promote church work.
Ho would say, “The devil has had
it long enough, we can use ft for
better purposes." If the funds of
Carnegie and Rockefeller contribut-
ed to philanthropy, educational and
religious institutions are to be class-
ed as tainted, hundreds of our
schools and churches have been vic-
tims of the alleged degrading and
dangerous precedent. In their ca-
reers these men have been at the
head of two lines of businesses that
monopolized the world's products
and sales and thousands of men have
been crushed by tho powerful and
far-reaching policies they were re-
sponsible for. Both being rich and
old they want to do good for the
sake of doing good or make amends
for the sin of oppressing others in
their love of gain. If either pf these
men want to give money to the cause
of education the Democrat says take
it. Both men are good citizens and
tlielr gifts will not corrupt the mor-
als of future generations. We say'
good citizens because they have liv-
ed exemplary lives and have not been
guilty 0< reprehensible conduct. They
have only bpen guilty of monopoliz-
ing tlie oil and steel business of the
world. Where is the man who
woul^ not like to have a corner on
eggs, gutter, meat, or any other line
of business and make for himself a
fortune? Few, indeed, would be
found to decline. Gov. Campbell's
warning may contemplate the' dan-
ger of receiving money from the'
enemy of good society and morality
where the intent is to quiet or
smother work of reformation and
uplift, or to thwart the passage of
laws that will he wholesome and
helpful to the human family. If thifi
Is his aim and advice he is on the
right track.
Good evening Gov. Colquitt. The
people of this empire state will
praise every good deed of yours
tyid they want to see the affairs of
state administered with wisdom,
with dignity, businesslike and free
from any semblance of boodle-meth-
ods. Conducted In the interest of
the masses and not in the interest
of politicians.
Gov. Campbell was presented by
the labor unions of Texas a hand-
some hall clocks as a testimonial of
his regard for the toilers of this
state and for the many acts and
words In their behalf. The presen-
tation was made last night in the
hall of the house of representatives

Who are the best Immigration
agents?
Men and women who go hack to

wonder the new Texan can boost; no
wonder that he can advise his old
friends and get the Texas fever
started in tlie community where he
stops. He has no ulterior motive; he
only wants to help Tils fellow to bet-
ter conditions. He comes nearer
telling the truth about Texas than
any one else and the truth is all
that is necessary. This winter hun-
dreds and thousands went back to
tne old states, mostly to the south-
ern states and from these visits many
families will come to Texas.
HORSE WISDOM.
i
UNIVERSITY OF TEXAS
W. P. Lane, tlie new comptroller,
has assumed his duties and re-
placed every man from chief
clerk to porter. Mr. Lane
says that he is also going to make
some radical changes in the meth-
ods of conducting the business. He
intends to do everything in his pow-
er to eliminate the dive, and say§.
he will grant permits for liquor li-
censes only to those who are entitled
to receive them under1 the law. In
the elimination oflthe dive and the
better regulation of the liquor traf-
fic, he says that he has the prem-
ised co-operation of the liquor men
of the state.
GOLDEN THOUGHTS.
Tho angry man puts himself at a
disadvantage. He arrays tilings two
to one'against him. Loss of self-
contrcl means a loss of grasp on ev-
erything else. Anger is weakness!, not
strength. To pride one s self on
“high spirit" is really priding one's
self on lack of will power and intel-
ligence., To rule one’s spirit is essen-
tial to Christian character.
No man who evar rises to a place
of real worth and usefulness in the
world walks on a rose-strewri path.
We never can be made fit. for any-
thing beautiful and worthy without
cost o' pain and tears. Always it is
triie that
“Things that hurt and things that
mar
Shape the man for perfect praise;
Shock and stiain and ruin are
Friendlier than the smiling days. ’
lerhaps there are many of us
who need to imitate the spirit of
Helen Keller when she wrote: "I
long to accomplish a great and noble
task, but it is my chief duty and joy
to accomplish humble tasks as though
they •vi-re great and noble. It is my
service to think how I can best ful-
lill the demands that each day makes
ujioii me and to rejoice that others
can do what I cannot.”—Forward,

DUST LAYING.
Oil Used by Canadian Town to Sprinkle
Streets.
Consul Augustus G. Seyfert of
Owen Sound, Out., says that “tlie
sandy lake shore soil upon which
< liven Sound is located results in very
dusty streets. No matter how much
rain falls or how much water is
sprinkled on the streets in'an hour
thereafter tlie dust becomes a nuisance
and a menace to health. To overcome
this the t municipal authorities ex-
perimented with oil, which proved
such a success that now all the prin-
cipal streets in the town are oiled.
These thoroughfares are macadamized
and are first swept clean and the oil
put on immediately uftler wIUi,.._tbe
sprinkler.
“The objection at first was that the
oder from the crude oP was offensive,
but In a day or two ibis disappeared,
and I lie change for ^ lie better to dust-
less streets was recognized by all.
Tlie first application of oil lasted six
weeks, and Hie second application was
put on tlie other day. and what
were some of tlie dustiest streets are
now perfectly dustless.
“The town otfieials state that it will
lie an annual saviug of ?2,000 over the
old water system and at the same
time give much better results.”
There are no slums in the coun-
’hera a
try, no ward heelers, no dives, no
: houses of Infamy, no schools of
\ crime. But there are liidescrib-
V ably awful roads, especially in
the winter.

Joseph Albert Pease.
*---------—+
Joseph Albert Pease, who a year
ago was appointed chancellor of the
Duchy of Lancaster and given a
seat in the British cabinet, was born
d,an. 17, I860, the second son of tlie
late Sir Joseph VV, Pease, first h&ro<-
net. He was first elected to parlia-
ment in 1X92, and the following
year he became private secretary to
the Right Hon. John Morley. He
was one of the junior whips to the
opposition from 1 897 to 1905, and a
junior Lord of the Treasury from
1905 to 1908, when he became Par-
liamentary Secretary of the Treasury.
He filled the latter position until the
dissolution of parliament in 1909,
and in the election that followed he
was one of the leading figures on
the Liberal side.
Mrs. J. B. Gambrell, wife of the
editor of the Baptist Standard, at

Three or Four Per Cent Slope Advis-
able For Heavy Traffic.
A 1 per cent grade on a road means
a rise of one foot for each hundred
feet of distance traveled up the hill.
A 10 per cent grade means ten feet
rise in each hundred feet so traveled.
A 1 per cent grade, then, means that
in traveling uphill one mile nu ascent
is made of ">2.8 feet, while a 10 per
cent grade means a rise In altitud"
of 528 feet In a mile. Accurate tests
have shown that a horse which can
pull 1,000 pounds on a level road can
pull only XIO pounds on a rise of one
foot in fifty, and _on a rise of one
foot in |pn ho can pull only 250 pounds,
These facts show that tlie greatest
load that can bo hauled over a road
Is the load which can he taken up
the steepest hlU on that road or
through the deepest mudhole. It Is
therefore advised that all highways
traveled by heavily loaded vehicles
should he kept within a 3 or 4 per
cent grade if practicable. To do^thls
may require a change of location to
get around hills, ijjwnys keeping in
mind that tlie lower tlie grade the
larger tile load may lie hauled and
the cost of haulage kept at the lowest
point.

DAIRY HERD IMPROVEMENT.
Economy of Pure Bred Sires and Care-
ful Milk Testing.
That there is profit in milking such
cows as .are found on the average
farm at this time Is attested by the
larger number of farmers engaged in
dairying. This profit, however, is not
nearly so large, nor does it even ap-
proximate tlie profit that would he ob-
tained h.v tlie breeding tip and improve-
ment of tlie dairy herd, says tho Katisas
Farmer. This can lie done most eco-
nomically by the ttse of a pure bred
dairy sire. With a reasonable degree
of certainty heifers resulting Wont the
first cross will produce two times as
much butter fat per year with first calf
as dhl their mothers, and, while tlie
improvement is not so marked in the
successive crosses, nevertheless each-
cross should result in an improvement.
Dairy herds the foundation of which
have been very common cows have
been so graded.up in this state in a
period of ten years as to produce 300
pounds of butter fat per cow, which is
more titan throe times the amount of
butter fat produced by the average
cow in this state under the present
methods.
The use of a pure bred dairy sire
from a heavy producing cow marks
only tlie beginning in the building up
The illustration shows a fine Hol-
stein bull which won first prize at
the Illinois state fair. He Is a good
specimen of the breed, large and
vigorous, with the black and white
well distributed. He Is an excellent
breeder and is good enough to head
most any herd.
of the' dairy herd. It, is very neces-
sary to know these cows which nre
returning a profit on the feed consum-
ed and tlie labor employed, it may be
that every <*>w in the herd is doing
this, hut tho chances tiro that not more
than half of the cows on the average
farm are paying for their fee’d and la-
bor if these he charged against the
dairy products of tlie cow. It is de-
sirable to know which of the cows are
returning the largest profit for the pur-
pose of weeding out aud disposing of
those cows which are yielding tlie
smallest profit, which, may la- vfry lit-
tle iu excess of the cost of feeding
and .which cows do not add to the val-
ue of tlie dairy. There is only one
known means of determining the rela-
tive merit of tlie respective cows, nnd
that is by weighing tlie milk and test-
ing.
There is. however, a very simple
standard of determining the relative
merits, and that is by exacting from
the cow a certain flow of milk per
year, and to arrive at a standard on
this hasis it is necessary only to weigh
and record (lie milk from each cow
at each milking. The farmer as a
beginner can set his standard at 3,000
pounds of . milk per twelve months,
and any cow which does not produce
this amount is not profitable for dairy
purposes. Her place in the herd can
be filled by a cow which will meet
tlie required standard ut a moderate
price.
Clean Milk Pays Best.
Good milk cannot be produced in a
filthy ham. The barn-should ho scru-
pulously cle-^ii, and the milker should
have cleun 'clothes and clean hands.
If you._gxp.ect to build up a trade in
dairy products'^ will pay you to pro
duce clean milk.

Letter From Bureau of Economic
^ieology
Austin. Tex., Jan. fb.—Some time
ago there was received at this office,
a letter from a reputable mining man
engaged in the phosphate industry,
stating that he had found ffliosphate
rock in Texas that carried 82 per
rfint of bone phosphate. This would
be dossed as extra high grade ma-‘
ferial, much above the average of
the rock from Florida, Tennessee or
South Carolina. This authority fur-
ther stated that he had not. been able
to follow the discovery up or to lo-
cate the deposit. The rock was found
as ’float’ in a creek, "but the time
at his disposal did not allow him to
prosecute the matter. At other lo-
calities he had found rpek of fair
quality but not so good as the above.
This bureau has not a dollar that
can be spent in field work, nor docs
the stale appropriate any thing for
such purposes. This discovery, so
important for the fanning interests
of the state, remains undeveloped.
It would require both time and
money to investigate the .different
localities Involved, hut nothing can
be done, owing to an entire lack of
funds.
The same situation maintains in
regard to nitrate of soda. Deposits
of this valuable material have been
found \rj Presidio county, where
there is abundant water within
three-miles' This deposit has b'ee'n
known for several years and it is al-
so known that it exists on the lands
of the Public School fund. It has
Upon prospected to some extent and
material of excellent quality has
been uncovered. But we are ignor-
ant of the extent of the field, the
thickness of the workable beds and
tlie .ocat conditions affecting the
mining and treatment.
Aside from certain deposits of
nitrate of soda in Death Valley, Cal-
ifornia, which do not seem to
be accessible now, there is no other
locality in the United States as
promising as this locality in Presidio
count, x-,1 of the nitrate of soda
of commerce comes from Chile. This
country has a monopoly ofthe indus-
try. The Texas deposits may or may
not be of commercial importance,
but while little is known concern-
ing them this little is decidedly en-
couraging.
The sulphur deposits of Cl Paso
county, described in bulletin No. 2
of tlie University Mineral Purvey.
1902, long since oiit of print, are
attracting attention now. But there
is no publication on the subject nor
a dollar that can be spent in acquir-
ing fresh information or reprinting
old reports.
Here are three subjects of great
commercial possibilities, phosphate
rock, nitrate of soda and- sulphur.
Many requests are being received
concerning them but there are no
publications that can be sent out.
If the mineral resources of Texas
are to he investigated and advertised
it must be through state aid Pri-
vate investigations are not for public
use.
Is it not time for us to do some-
thing?

Fort Worth Horse Show
Fori Worth, Tex., Jan. 17.—•
The Fort Worth Horse show that is
to be held March 13 to 18, bids fair
to set a new high water mark as a
social and equine event of far-more
reaching interest than any event of
Its kind ever held in the Southwest.
Tlie show that was given at the Col-
iseum last March during the Fat
Stock show was a glowing success,
hut the 1M1 show will go it several
points bett^fi. It is being arranged
by Warren V. Galbreath, a man who
has already won fame as a horse
show manager. The program tlia?
is now being prepared to cover a^
whole week, and which will allow'
for six performances, will be filled
with interesting classes and novel
events.
Texas bred horses will he featured
during the horse show. As an in-
centive to tho entry of suc.h horses
handsome prizes in both plate and
easli have been offered. Each night
during the wefik there will be at
least .one class Jov Texas horses.
Another attractive event will be a
class for city salesmen's horses.
A feature of the 1911 show will
be the presence of the United States
army officers from various posts.
Fort Pam Houston, located at San
Antonio, will be represented and of-
ficers may also come from Fort Ri-
ley and -Fort Leavenworth. For the
officers’ military jumping classes,
umbrella drillB and monkey drills
will be arranged. Tli^| officers will
be required to make the same jumps
that were introduced at the Nation-
al Horse show held recently at Mad-
ison Square Garden.
A brand new class to be given will
he known as the “jury class.” in

the horses entered will act as judges
and will have to pass upon the re-
