THE Department Of Justice at Washing
ton seems disposed to waste Its energies III a
discussion OF tho ron.esscnttnls OF the star-
route cases. rho first sign Of activity It lias
made for many months Inns come In the allapo
Of IA sllarp note" addressed to Mr. 4. II.
Gibson, in1ulrfng by wliat authority he pre-
suncs to call himself IN special United
States attorney" The department is said
also to dlsapprovo of the publication Of 3fr.
Glbson's report, which, X 1t had followed
tile ordinary r0utinA might have taken rs
long to rcacl, tho newspapers rs the now eel
ebratetl report Of Gen. Tyner did. Mr.. Glib
sou himself lad MI iukling of the fate tint
was III store for him. mud wisely determined
to put Ills discoveries beyond tho reach Of
tho red-tupe flnctIonarles Of tho department.
Ills report was, therefore, given to the press,
precisely ns tho reports OF the lieatls Of tho
departments and bureaus nrc, III advance of
their submission to Congress. What the pub
lie cares to know, md whnt the Departmental
Justice ought to ho interested III, ~ whether
tie statements OF Mr.. Gibson arc true. All
else relating to tho mAllnerfn which the report
WIS made or tho official stntlls of the person
who undo it IS comparatively frivolous. But

nishes the following SUGGESTIONS
After saying that no rule could ap.
ply to all cows alike he adds-"I
have found that COWS inclined 10
take on fat could be MIXED up to
two or three weeks before calving,
and have COW and calf healthy and
plump; and COWS that could not be
fattened while milking, required
from four 10 six weeks of rest from

er-wise the calf was small and not
