The Chicago Tribune quotes an alleged interview with Roger Q, Mills as text for leading editorial in which it charges him with vaeillating between absolute free trade and incl dental protection" There has been no such vacillation on the part of MT. Mills Itis likely enough that he has said he is not in favor Of abolishing the tariff outright though all sensible and well informed people knew well enough before that he has never pro posed such a measure in the course of his public career He is free trader as all Democrats are free-traders from the standpoint of the Republicans who are absurd enough to believe that prosperity can be increased by increas- ing the taxes on trade.

It may be true that the average dalryman can not comply with all the conditions of expert dairying at once and go to the front at bound, out no reason exists why he should not begin to make progress towards better methods and results The dairy herd can be gradually improved by the in- fusion of fresh blood from some of the noted herds, and deviation given to the dairy product. Too many dairiss are kept that the owner does not know what their special purpose is for. whether butter. cheese or city milk. Give it purpose for one of the three specialties. The stables can be sxed ua. made clean and comfortable One can also cheaply learn how to prop erIy take care of milk whether for the house. factory or city wants If butter is made. the creamer. churn. and fx- lures are cheap and their use soon mastered. and so on through the list Keep learning. keep improving. keep the business from dragging. push it and one will be surprised how much progress will be made in three years. and in five years one will have be- come an expert and can quickly demonstrate how and why tho dairy pays. and how 1t is an educator su- perior to any other farm industry.
