there must be warm stable and plenty
of succulent food Where the summer
conditions can be brought about there
can be success and a proportionate relief
from the almost-in New York-univer-
sal competition of a summer product.
With a winter dairy pork can be made
with a better price, and also veal No
one should aspire to be dairyman in
winter with cold barns and no provision
for succulent foods.
Hoard's Dairyman, commenting on the
above, says: Butter is so unreasonably
cheap in summer because so great ma
jority of the farmers have their cows
calve in the spring. 1t is also unreason-
ably dear in winter because so few cows
are made to calve in the fall There
needs to be better balancing up of the
yearly milk supply so that less milk
should be produced in summer and more
in winter. This would equalize the
prices for the whole year, and in the end
bring greater profit to the dairymen. 1t
is well to remember that it costs only
about 10 per cent. more to keep a cow in
good condition than it does to keep her
dry, as she ought to be kept, while the
returns from winter milk are fully 80
per cent. more than from summer
milk"
John Gould, of Ohio, who last season
practiced continuous winter stabling for
his COWS, states in American Agricultur-
list that never before were they wintered
so cheaply and we'll He keeps his barn
warm and abundantly supplied with
light. He chains his COWS in pairs. in
half box stalls, giving them plenty of
freedom so far as movement is consistent
with safety. A good bed under them
and plenty to eat before them. made them
perfectly contented. They could lie down
at their ease. and the neck chain was
long enough to enable them to sleep with
their heads on their sides if they wished.
He says: Il am now fully satisfied that
it does not pay to attempt to warm barn
yards with COWS, or to use hay and grain
to warm ice water inside of a cows hide.
The cows were fed silage, bran and
little clover hay and gave summer messes
of milk all winter"

Utilizing Barn Yaros.

Prairie Farmer not long ago made a
very sensible plea. This was TO utilize
the barn yard. Dairymen milk in sta
bles, and through the summer the in,
closed lot adjacent runs to waste. Why
not utilize it? 1t is the richest land on
the farm. A dairyman this season put
up temporary lane fences and converted
his barn yard into truck garden, with
very successful results. AS soon as the
vegetables are harvested the temporary
fencing will come down, straw will be
stacked as usual in the yard, where also
the stock will be turned on sunny winter
days, as heretofore.
Too many barn yards are nothing but
cesspools, breeding questionable odors,
if not pestilence. With no drainage pro-
vided, the urine and liquid manure gray
itate towards natural earth depressions,
which are very often under the stable
floor or about the sills. and there the
collected filth breeds its mischief By
all means have good drainage about COW
barns. The odors generated from stag
mated filth are quickly absorbed by the
fresh drawn milk, and milk thus tainted
is absolutely poisonous.

Prairie Farmer makes the following
statement: If, after the butter is care
fully worked and packed, preferably in
glazed stone jar, it is kept where the
temperature never goes above 60 degs.,
there is no reason why it should not
keep perfectly sweet for winter use, if
no germs of decay are left in the butter.
Nor should this occur if the utmost
cleanliness has been observed in all the
processes from the milking to the
packing. Yet you cannot expect the
fresh aroma to be retained; but the low
er the temperature the longer will this
be preserved.

Bill Fosters Arrested While Putting Up
 His Manifesto.

LONDON, Sept. 7.-The French Minis try, as the elections approaches, are more than ever determined to show no quarter to Boulanger and his partisans. Yesterday in Paris alone the police ar rested twenty-three men who were post ing Boulangist placards, and in the provinces the police are equally watch full lest the recent manifesto of the exiles should see the light of day. The men arrested in Paris are mostly pro- fessional billposters, with no special predilection for Boulanger or his cause, and stand as ready to post placards for M. Tirard on the walls of Paris to-day as for the brave General" yesterday. This fact, however, does not save them from the summary vengeance of frightened Government, and four of those who were arraigned yesterday were sentenced to ten days imprison- ment each for violating the recent de- cree of M. Constans, Minister of the Interior, prohibiting the hawking or placarding of any documents emanating from General Boulanger, Count Dillon or M. Rochefort.

Tender as to His Age.

A recent letter written by ''Dic1" Ogles- by to Piatt County Qll) committee who asked him to attend reunion refers to his advanced age in a way that recalls a time when he was moro tender upon that point, says the St. Louis Republic. When Oglesby came out of the army he was rapidly ap- preaching fifty, and, though still an active man, longed for youth as ardently as did ever Ponce de Leon. One evening, in the Gll- lette mansion at Lincoln, company of la dies and gentlemen were waiting cessa- ton of heavy rainfall. In the company were General Oglesby and David T. Littler. Littler, then a young man, made wager that it was raining as hard as it ever did at the flood, and In his heedlessness turned to Oglesby and said:
 "General, we have question to refer to you"
 "What is itp' said Oglesby.

 "I was not there, sir," said the General, and then and there began a coldness be. tween Oglesby and Littler which lasted until they married into the same family.
