DAIRY DOTS.

The followin g items are from the Ma.
tional Stockman:
IT is the all-the-year worker that gives
the greatest yield.
WHY not get a butter or milk bull Of
your own? Bulls are cheap now.
IT Is better to keep the COW healthy
by good feeding than by medicine.
DON'T forget that calves will eat grass
or hay when they are only a few weeks
old.
A DAIRY COW should 90 dry but a few
weeks in the year; q dry COW is not q
paying one.
THE cow on pasture runs less risk Of
constipation at calving than the one on
dry feed.
If you have scrub cows, poor scrubs
at that, the bull, if a good one, will be
nine-tenths Of the herd.
NEVER mind about the color of the
cows hair, but if her skin is yellow ii
is one point in her favor.
Wv can't force people to buy what
they don't want, SO we must make the
kind of butter they do want.
THE COW that calves Just before the
pasture season is over will get a good
start for her winters work.
MILK fever is generally preceded by
constipation; a good condition Of the
bowels is therefore important.
The summer COW also declares week.
ly dividends, but as there are so many
summer COWS, the weekly dividends are
weakly.
THIcKEN the watery skinned milk
with oil-meal Or middlings and the
calves and pigs will not mind the extra
quantity of water in it.
If you have no ice you can keep your
cream and butter in the we'll. A wind.
lass is the most easily managed way of
raising and lowering them.
AT this time of the year 1t is Just as
well to give the lately-dropped calves
hay, and then there will be no change
from grass to hay while the calves are
young.
1T is easier to teach a calf to drink
that has never sucked its dam, but al.
lowing it to suck for three or four DAYS
will do no harm and may do the COW
some good.
The profitable dairy COW is now be
ginning to make calculations about do
claring a scrip dividend. This dfvi.
dend to be followed by weekly cash div.
idends during the winter.
A GOOD bull is more important than a
good stallion because a foal from almost
any scrub stallion will make a work
horse, but a calf from a scrub bull
may not be able to work in the dairy at
all.

There are some patent med
icines that are more marvel
lous than a dozen doctors
prescriptions, but they're not
those that profess to cure
e0cyytltRg.
Everybody, now and then,
feels "run down." played
out" They've the will, but
no power to generate vitality.
They're not sick enough to
call a doctor, but just too
sick to be well. That's
where the right kind of a
patent medicine comes in,
and does for a dollar what
the doctor wouldn't do for
less than five or ten.
We put in our claim for
DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical
Discovery.
We claim it to be an TN
equaled remedy to purify
the blood and invigorate the
liver. We claim it to be
lasting in its effects, creating
an appetite, purifying the
blood, and preventing Bilious,
Typhoid and Malarial fevers
If taken IN time. The time
to take it is when you first
feel the signs of a0earzness and
soeahuess. The time to take
it, on general principles, is
NOW.

OVER THE
OLIVER Wendell Holmes on American Social
and Literary Independence.

and Literary Independence.
l confess that ! am not in sympathy
with some Of the movements that ac-
company the manifestations of Ameri-
can social and literary independence, |
do not like the assumption of titles Of
Lords and Knights by plain citizens OF
a country which prides itself on recog-
nizing simple manhood and woman
hood as sufficiently entitled to respect
without these unnecessary additions l
do not like any better the familiar and,
rs it seems to me, rude way of speaking
of our fellow-citizens who are entitled
to the common courteSies of civilized
society. Inever thought it dignitied or
even proper for a President of tho
United States to call himself, or to be
called by others, Frank" Pierce. In
tho first place | had to look in a
biographical dictionary to find out
whether his baptismal lame was Frank
lin, or Francis, or simply Frank, for |
think children are sometimes christened
wit, 'Ais abbreviated name. But it is
too much in the style of Cowper's I'M
pleasant acquaintance:
The man who halls you Tom or Jack,
And proves by humping on your back
How he esteems your merit.
| should not like our past Chief Mag
i~strates spoken of as Jack Adams or jim
Madison, and it would have been only
as a political partisan that ! should
have ~recounciled myself to Tom JEFF
ferson. So, in spite of ben" Jonson,
tom" Moore, and Jack Sheppard, |
prefer to speak of a fellow-citizen al
ready venerable by his years, entitled
to respect by useful services to his
country, and recognized by many as the
prophet of a new poetlcal dispensation,
with the customary title of adults rather
than by the free and easy schoolboy alb
~breviation with which he introduced
himself many years ago to the public.
AS for his rhapsodies, Number Seven,
our Cracked Teacup," says they sound
to him like ''fugues played upon Il big
organ which has been struck by light
ming" So far as concerns literary indie
~pendence, if we understand by that term
the getting rid of our subsection to
British criticism, such as it was in the
days when the question was asked,
"Who reads an American book?" we
may consider it pretty we'll established.
If it means dispensing with punctua-
ton, coming words at will, self-revela-
ton unrestrained by a sense of what is
dccorous, declarations in which every
thing is gloritied without being ideal
lied, poetry" in which the reader must
make the rhythms which the poet has
not made for him, then | think we had
better continue literary colonists. [
shrink from a lawless independence to
which all the virile energy and tramp
ling audacity Of Mr.. Whitman fail to
reconcile me. But there is room for
everybody and every thing in our huge
hemisphere, Young America is like n
t~hree-year-old colt with his saddle and
bride just taken of. The first thing he
wants to do is to roll. He is a droll OBJ
iect, sprawling in the grass with his
four hoofs in the air; but he likes it,
and it won't harm US. So let him roll
let him roll!-Atlantic.

THE MExlCANS' Triple.


Century Plants Despoiled to Supply the
Fascinating Pulque.
Pulque is pronounced ''pulky" and is
the national beer of Mexico. In the
Mexican cities pulque shops are as
numerous as were ~locusts in Egypt, the
prohibition eagle never having made its
swoop in that languid land of the trop-
les. Some of those shops, from a Mexi.
a point of view, are neat and clean;
though it should be added that a Mexi.
can point of view, when cleanliness is
considered, is not eminent.
Pulque is the fresh juice or syrup o.
the century plant and is consumed the
day it is gathered, as it will become soul
and u~npalatable within twenty-four
hours. The method of its production is
simple. The long central shoot of the
plant, which naturally would be pro.
jected upward from twenty to forty feet
like some mighty club of Samson, is cut
out at its base in the inception of its
growth. This leaves a basin in which
collects the sap which Vas meant for
the growth of the plant. A Mexican
who deals in the commodity has what's
called a pulque orchard, and this is
large or small, according to his ambi-
tions. Once a day-the early morning
hours-he dips the pulque out of the
vegetable basin into a pig skin, where
in it is at once purveyed to the tavern
keeper to be sold. That is all there is
to the process and it is dispensed at
about ~ cents aglass. In appearance,
taste and sticky consistency pulque much
resembles yeast. Connected with it's sale
is an exercise which the ~barkeeper per-
forms which has driven many a tender
American tourist away without his
pulque after it was ordered and paid for.
The Mexican glasses have no handles,
and grasping it so as to project at least
one finger and sometimes two into a
glass, the barkeeper dips the pulque.
AS a necessity, from the method EN-.
ployed and the consistent character OF

FOOLISH AND CONCEITED,
The Less a Man Knows the More He Talks
About II.

The less a mar knows the more he
talks about it, If Shadows murmur
where deeps are dumb" they are like
human beings who have small minds
and are great takers. The man who
talks continuously, and who is not in
intellect above the average man, must
say many foolish things. The foolish
man does not know when to keep his
mouth shut. If he did he would still be
foolish, but he would not say foolish
things. An old Alliance man once had
a boy who lacked good sense. The boy
may be a man now and in politics. The
old>man used to take his son to town
with him when he went with a team to
sell a load of wood, and when noon came
and the old man felt like taking a nip
he would leave the boy in the public
square, saying: Stay right here with
the team, Ezra. Don't you say a word,
and n~obody'l ever find out you are a
fool" By and by. people would come
along and commence to dicker for a
trade. On one such occasion a man
said: "How much for the wood?" The
boy smiled stupidity and said never a
word. The man spoke again, and
louder: "How much do you ask for
your load of wood?" The boy was
still dumb, but soon burst into
tears, and the surprised man said:
THAT boy is certainly q fool" The
father came along about that time and
the boy sobbed; They've found me out,
dad, l never said a word, and the man
said / was a fool" There is always hope
for a boy of that sort. He knows his
weakness, and that is something. The
man who thinks he knows it all, and
knows much less than many others is
most dangerous. He will tackle any
subject and make his hearers very tired.
1t would be a great thing if men, in
their eagerness for notoriety, would re.

SO sure as a mar has brains and religion
in inverse ratio with an enormous con.
ceit, knowing he can secure notoriety to
himself in no other way, he tries to say
something startling" in religion. A
Baptist thus afflicted recently declared
