rue Value OF Water Ior Co,rs.


Cows should have access to water at
all times especially eo~s that give
milk. They want to drink often and
return to their feed. The best stable
aud one in which stock do their best
is one where water is always running
in troughs before the cattle. Thus
managed, COWS may be kept up To a
full flow OF milk either Winter or
Summer, aud, for this reason, if the
pasture fails from drought il may be
supplanted with other feed. but fail
ure of water can not be remedied. So
in Winter cows that are only watered
once a day, as many DO who consider
themselves good farmers. the cows
shrink in their milk and il can never
be regained. The same rule will hold
good in the stable; abundant feed may
be supplied. but if the water supply
fails, the profit will be nil. The ne
cessity of plenty pure water for stock
is one of the first importance to breed
ers and feeders. II must not only be
in abundance, but il should be in such
supply that stock may take It at will,
or II supplied at stated times it should
be offered at least twice day, and
three times will be better No ami
NAL can thrive properly that has ac-
cess 10 water but once a day.1 Every
good feeder knows this, and hence in
all large feeding establishments the
greatest care is taken to keep the sup
ply ample and constant. Many farm
ers neglect this, and always to their
cost. II water can not be had near
in any other way, wells should be
dug and the water raised by wind or
other power, as the case may be.
Having plenty Of water, see that stock
get it as regularly as they feed. II

THE COAL QUESTION.
Plan to Form Pool and Keep Prices Down.

Plan to Form Pool and Keep Prices Down.
The coal merchants and railroad men
held another meeting in the pork rooms OF
the Chamber of Commerce this morning to
here the report of the Committee appoint
ed last Saturday. Mr.. Dana, the chairman,
the different railroad companies and found
transporting of coal to the city, provided
the mines could furnish the coal and the
dealers would unload the cars as fast as
they arrived in the city.
They would take their cars from other
business and without charging extra rates
would do their part toward supplying the
city with coal and keeping prices down.
The Committee further recommended that
pool be formed and general yard estab-
lished by the coal men, which would re-
ceive all the cnal that would be brought
to the city and divided among the dealers
in the city In proportion to the amount OF
coal sold by each during the month OF
September.
| On motion of Mr.. Zimmerman, the
Committee were instructed to draw up @
plan r the pool, and, after obtaining the
signatures If as many of the coal dealers as
possible, to report at another meeting to be
held Wednesday morning at 10 oclock.
Mr.. M. Il, Ingalls,, of. the l., c. & l.. Road
who acted as Chairman Of the meeting
stated that the freights would not be raised
on his road, but for the sake of humanity
and for the purpose of keeping up the
business of the city they would take cars
from their ct er business and place them
at the disposal of the coal dealers. There
was no doubt, he said but that the rail
roads could bring to the city all the Goa
that the city needed, and if there was nc
panic started and the dealers would enter
into pool and not rush
to the, mines for the purpose
of buying up coal upon which to speculate
the city could be supplied with fuel al
reasonable prices.
Mr.. Peabody, of the o. & NJ, and Mr.
Stewart, of the NJ & c., were also present
and stated that the rates would not bt
raised unless the coal dealers raised theil
prices, and that they would bring to thu
city all the coal the mines would furnish
without delay.
1t was the general opinion of the Goa
dealers present that the interior mines
could supply the city, unless the miner
struck, as they had already done at Straits
vile; but if the business was conducted
right there was not much danger of this
The coal, they thought, could be unloadet
from the cars as fast as it arrived.
