PESSIMISTIC VIEW.
In Regard to the Question of Railroad Conn
mission and Hogg


mission and Hogg.
New YORK, .oct. 1, 1890.
To the Gazette.
Your editorial on "The Railroad Com :
mission" and its influences upon the fu-
ture of Texas, impressed me forcibly.
1t was "smooth-very SMOOTH pro-
duction, and very we'll calculated to con-
vince the pessimist, to whom assume il
was addressed, hat he was borrowing
unnecessary trouble. Ordinarily / be-
lieve might with consistency be classed
as an o timist of the most pronounced
type, so far as matters pertaining to the
present and future of Texas are con-
cerned. But upon the question of rail-
road ommisson and Hogg am pessi-
mist of the most oerulean hue. 1 con-
slider it most unfortunate that "eyen
now, when all Texas is in holiday humor,
rejoicing over the recent congressional
deep water appropriation that marks the
beginning OF an era of extraordinary
development in the state, that the
dominant party should have selected as
its standard bearer, and the exponent of
its principles, a man who has shown
such violent prejudice and antagonism
against one OF tue prlnclpai IactorS In the
development OF ths state-the railroads.
That he is prejudiced, and is Influenced
in his official actions is shown by the re-
cord. You cannot contend that the in-
coming governor twill be guided more
by sound judgment and sense of JUS
tice' than "prejudices and ambition, "
unless you utterly ignore his official re-
cord as attorney-genersl. He has re-
peatedly charged on the hastings that the
railroads have Disseminated in the
transportation of freight and passengers
against persons and places, yet has never
used the authority vested in his office to
punish the evil doors. 1t follows that he
must have been romaucing in those as
sertions, and that no such discrimination
exists, or that he is singularly unmindful
of his oath of office. 1t can hardly be
contended that he is wholly unprsju-
diced and unbiased, when you witness
his official assault upon the Missouri,
Kansas aud Texas railway company for
acts committed, if committed ct all, ten
years ago, and passed by unnoticed for
more than three and a half years that he
has occupied the office of attorney-gen-

Kansas and Texas are as true of other

Tested. MIR. Hogg has already kept
millions of dollars out OF Texas, and is
not yet elected. Other millions that
might have gone to Texas are seeking
employment elsewhere, and all because
OF the fear that Governor Hogg will fol.,

enunciated by Attorney-General Hogg.

then that am pessimistic.

Who worried for fear she was looking too old;
One day she discovered . tiny gray hair
And little wee wrinkle-which ought TO Be

So. oil In panic, she FASTENED TO try
Hair washes, and tonics and tweezers and dye,
She plastered her features with lotions and

And put on q mask when she ventured TO dream.
Enamels and balms and skin powders she tried,
All stuffs that riuvcnatc" too. were applied,
But. somehow--as happens to gil In that case =
She quicker got rid Of her beauty and grace.
Each gaze In the mirror showed plainly the
truth.
Instead q restoring or holding her youth
She made herself older and shortened her days
BY try ng those arts that are useless always.

Gave never a thought 10 herself growing old;
She didn't so hunting TO find gray hair
Or wrinkles or crows feet that, may be, were
there.

She dnf seek to lilies or worries or strife,

THE DAIRY.

Feed all kinds Of grain in tight
boxes.
Color OF milk is OF more account than
color Of COW.
Milk your cows clean II you would
have them milk long.
When gently used, the curry-comb
and brush are just as needful for mich
cows As they are for work horses.
To make dairying paying and
profitable business one can not afford to
overlook the feeding value Of skim
milk.
System Is the soul Of success In the
dairy or any place else. Work should
be systematically planned 80 that there
should be regularly appointed time
for doing each thing. Work we'll planned
Is we'll begun, and we'll begun T. half
done.
1t Is skill that brings the price all
the time, no matter whether 1t Is found
In piece Of silk, watch or q pound Of
butter, says the New England Farmer.
II the silk, the watch or the butter are
not good-not much skill shown In
making them-they sell for a low price.
% low. generally, that there is little or
no profit in making them.
Chemists" says . contemporary,
tell us that cows fed on bran make
richer manure than when fed on oats or
corn meal" and then wants to know
whether this fact, IL 1t 10 fact, is .
point for or against the bran. Taking
1t pound for pound in the open market
We believe milk is more valuable than
manure, though in the Judgment Of
many scientists this rule IL reversed

Winter dairying requires something
more than ordinary methods in order to
insure success. Some of the more i'm
portant requisites are given below: In
telligent and liberal feeding. Not only
must the cows be we'll fed but properly
fed. 1t is easier to make . cow grow
fat in the winter than 1t is to make her
give milk. Winter dairymen have found
that it Is important that their cows must
have plenty Of heterogeneous food.-West-

feed more oats this year." advises
Rural New Yorker. There is no rea-
son why oats should not be fed with
profit to all kinds of stock, cattle. sheep,
pigs and poultry. We do not mean fed
exclusively. but fed in combination with
other grains and folders"
BRIGHT oat straw is one Of the best fod.
ders we have for horses, and preferable
to poor hay ut all times. The best way
to feed is to run it through cutter and
mix bran and ground oats with it. II
should be slightly moistened SO as ia
make the ground feed adhere to it.
THE future development and useful
ness OF your COWS will be greatly in
fuenced by the treatment given them
while calves. Oats and clover hay are
the best feed for growing stock. They
are both very cheap, and it will pay to
feed literally for the next six months.
THE rapid growth Of an animal when
1t Is young will be an advantage to II
later on in life. The greatest proper
tionate gain with animals is during the
first year. II the young stock is kept
in thrifty, growing condition the first
two years the greater proportion of work
required to secure profit will have been
performed.

Country people, who constantly have
genuine milk, do not need the advisory
information here given, but it will be
appreciated by snch city folks as are
unable to obtain pure tactical fluid for
daily consumption. In paper read be-
fore convention of Australian farmers,
Mr.. Baron Jones stated tn at milk If in
fected, may be rendered harmless and
maintained sweet by sealing it in bottles,
and subsequently plunging these into
boiling water for few minutes; that II
this plan we're universally adopted there
would be no danger of attack from dis
ease through the medium OF milk. He
added that this plan was more especially
necessary in thickly populated towns,
where dangerous organisms are present
in the air to much greater extent than
In the country places. Milk should
never be put into dirty vessels for sim
liar reasons, inasmuch as the organisms
invariably adhere to these, but can be
destroyed BY scalding. For like reasons
COW should never be allowed to drink
from dirty ponds or streams, which are
invariably abodes Of injurious organ
