To THE PUBLIC-IN ANSWER TO JUDGE PAuL's


10 THE fUBlIC-IN ANSWER TO JUDGE PAUL'S
CARD.
Through the politeness of the editor of the
Spirit have been shown Judge Pauls Card
and his letter attached thereto. I simply say in
reply, that his base, false, and malignant charges
have been completely refuted to the entire sat
isfaction of John Wanamaker, Postmaster GEN
eral, and Benjamin Harrison, President Of the
United States. The letters of my wife and
neighbors, most of whom have known me from
childhood, have. thoroughly demonstrated the
faisty of these charges the records in Wash
ington full complete, and convincing; the
people here know the facts.
Let the whole record be published, both that of
my opponents well as of my friends. 1 have
been informed upon good authority that Judge
Paul previous to the issuance of my commits
sion, made another false and malicious charge
against me, was privy to the making of such
charge, for the purpose of preventing the is
suance of my commission. Tt is plainly to be
seen that his present course in thus publishing
his vile and false charges before this community
is for the purpose, if possible thereby, to preju
dice and prevent my confirmation by the Senate

to milk regularly each night and morn
ing, and let him begin every time with
the same one, milking each in the same
order and closing with the same one
every time. This regularity induces a
sort of expectancy Of habit in the cows,
and each is prepared to be MIXED when
her turn comes. There is sort of sur
prise or excitement about being MIXED
out of order that lessons the flow,
When the flow of milk is not large it
is generally necessary to strip first one
pair and then the other to coax the milk
into the teats, or to make the COW give
down." Grasping the udder highl. up
and stroking downward to the teat helps
expedite the flow of milk. In many
cases the milk does not stream directly
downward into the pail, but off one side.
With little care one can soon get the
right position to turn the stream into the
pail and avoid waste. Strip the teats at
least twice after cxhausting the first
flow, and be sure the milk is ell drawn.

How to Kill Beeves.

The following terse but practical di-
rections are given by The American
Agriculturist to farmers who have beeves
to kill: "An animal is best killed with q
rife ball, shot midway of line drawn
from one eye to the opposite horn; but
it may be killed by blow on the same
spot with sledge hammer or the head
of an ak, first blindfolding the animal.
AS soon as it falls cut a cash square
across the throat back of the jaws, deep
enough to reach to the spinal column.
The animal may be run up at once or
not until skinned, or it may lie until the
entrails are removed, as may be pre-
ferred. Cut the hide from the throat
along the brisket and central line of the
belly, between the thighs to the tail, and
from this cut along the inside Of the
legs. Take off the fore legs at the knee
Joints and the hind ones three inches
below the hook joints If the animal is
on the ground remove the hide from the
upper side of the carcass to the back
bone; then turn the animal over and
skin the other side. If the animal is
hung up begin above and work down.
Be careful not to cut any gashes in the
hide. Use the thumbs wherever it is
practicable to do SO.
To remove the entrails is not difficult.
Open along the middle of the belly and
brisket, cutting from in outward, run
ming the fingers along ahead of the
knife through the belly. The animal
should have had nothing to eat for
twelve hours before it is killed. Its en-
trails will not then be distended and the
carcass will cool better. AS soon as the
entrails are out, wash the inside thor
oughly with cold water, using a cloth
where necessary to take off blood.
Stretch the slit in the belly open by set
ting in short sticks to keep the carcass
open and facilitate cooling. AS soon as
the carcass has cooled, divide it in halves
by splitting the back bone, working
from the inside. First cut through the
flesh and then saw through the bone.
Do not cut bones-saw them.

Corn charred on tbs4 --s-O1y anu sWlne.

How to- Milk a Cow.

The following pertinent and sensible
suggestions appear, along with other
matters of interest to dairymen at large,
in the Minnesota dairy commissioners
report:
Always milk in clean ana dirt from the
rom rom. oSaltf aeEsa and udder. If the udder is
soiled have a pail of water and cloth or
sponge 1T hand, and give it a thorough
cleaning Have the hands dry and clean,
and do not wet tho cows teats with
milk.
BE gentle with the cow and sit down
to her SO that you can place your head
against her flank and control the move
ment of her leg with your left arm in
case she steps around or is inclined to
kick. The safest position is on three
legged stool; taking the pail firmly be-
tween your knees, not getting SO near
or SO far away that the mixer cannot sit
firmly and steadily and rise quickly
Take hold of the teat well up on the I'D
der and gently stroke it downward before
beginning to milk. Grasp the off hind
teat with the left hand and the near fore
teat with the right, or the off fore teat
with the right hand and the near hind
teat with the left, SO as to milk across.
In grasping the teats reach well up on
the udder and press the milk down
ward into the teat, closing the forefinger
and thumb tightly around it next the I'D
der as soon as the teat comes fairly within
the hand. Then close the second, third and
fourth fingers in order, giving slight
but gentle pull on the teat, and squeez-
ing out of II all the milk it contains Le-
fore looscning the grip. Repeat this
operation until the l.!iI.i ceases To t.ow.
