for cheese, but this should not be. 1t
| is this large amount of milk required
to produce dairy products that loads
| down the business. We must base the
! dairying of the future on more econ
| emic conditions. Another thing which
| affects the butter market: In proper
ton. there is more poor butter than
| cheese, and this poor butter drags the
| market down. 1t is the poor butter
that makes the market price. Buyers
say: I'VE can get butter at such
| a price" way down; and the good but
| ter is pulled down, not the poor butter
pulled down.
Why does rough treatment cause a
cow to give less milk?" Because it
produces nervous excitement, and the
processes of nature crave their action
and another set of animal forces are
Engaged, just as fright will cause us to
stop breathing, or we may lose the
power OF speech or other physical
action.
will excessive wet weather cause 4
COW to give less milk?" Yes, as the
grass growing rapidly will have an
excess of water and be lacking in nu-
triton as 70 its bulk. and the COW fills
up her stomach without full food
supply, just as green sowed and washy
fodder corn has less than ten pounds
of nutriment to the hundred Last
summer less butter was made from
grass alone than the year before. Un-
der such circumstances some grain
should be fed. 1t will always pay to
feed grain when the grass is over sue
culent.
why do COWS need more shelter
than they did years agop' Because of
improved and refined blood, or be-
cause they are better bred and being
housed part of the time they feel the
change more. Besides. our climatic
natural protection. In old times. as
it is with the Indians. the weak Iings
died young and only the stalwazt sur
vived.
us there any difference in the rich
ness of a COWS milk as she Crews old
er?" Up to the time of perfection
probably not. After that it would not
be as much. nor as rich. The period
OF perfection or maturity will vary
with COWS. When the turning point
comes and a cow begins to fail, it is
not profitable to keep her for the dairy,
She may however, be kept for breed
er. A cow will not fail with age sim
ply, but her ability to eat and masti-
cate will be lessened and also her abil-
ity to convert food into the solids of
milk. Old cows. as well as old people.
should have very nutritious foods If
they are expected to keep up their
physical force.
What is the best summer food for
cows?" Good grass and. as rule,
plenty of this is enough. In hot
weather and in autumn it should be
supplemented with bran and linseed
meal. corn. oats, or cottonsee4 meal
"Wil stable cows make harder but
ter than COWS at grasp 1t depends
upon the food they get. Dry and car
bonaceous foods will make the hardest
butter.
"What causes a COW to lose her
cud?' Sickness. The natural proce sses
are arrested for a time. When the
normal conditions return or the COW is
relieved Of her sickness she will re-
sumo eating and raise her eud which
size does at will, the .rumen containing
food.
Ina herd of cows will they all pro-
duce the same results on the same
food?" No; every COW has her individ-
uallty.

FIRING Up,

She was ftly attired for her work.
Over her shoulders were unmistalIable
suspendcrS to distribute the weight of
her skirts and give her freedom of
movement. Her sleeves were rolled
above her elbows and exposed arms
that were Drowned and sinevv. An
ample apron of leather shielded the
wOolen fabric Of her costume from fiv-
ing sparks of hot METAL and the only
suggestion Of unftness for the dust and
smoke was in a pair of dainty boots
which padded about the sloppy floor
near her forge as though they were
made for that purpose.
a dab OF SCOT on her nose and sundrv
smudgeS on her face and arms gave an
air of realism to the scene, and showed
the earneStneSs of the woman who
could forget primness in her devotion
to blacksmithing. The forge fire was
troublesome because it was urged only
by a hand blast, while at the others any

Rape For Sheen.

Professor Thomas Shaw of the
Ontario Agricultural College. Canada,
in recent contribution on the value
of certain crops in clearing land of
foul weeds, makes the prediction that
10. 600, 600 head of lambs will be fat
tened in the Unitel States on rape.
The following is an extract from tie
article:
Some of those hoed crops are more
potent than others in their efforts on
weed destruction. Rape in this climate
is one of the very best as we grow it
here. In growing rape we select the
drsiest fields we have. These are
plowed in August and sowed with rye
earl y in September. The rye is sown
at the rate Of not less than two and
one-half bushels per acre. 1t is then
cut when coming out in head and cured
for hay. The ground is then pIowed
for rape early i'll June and with the
same in drills about June /. 1t is
managed about the same as turnips.
only it is not thinned. The lambs are
put upon it in Septe ember. and in two
months or more they are ready for the
mar ket. weighing like lead. Last year
we fattened over 800 lambs on this
farm and this year we propose fatten-
ing at least 400 head on our rape, of
which we have forty acres. l am not
sure if rape would do as we'll in the
central States as here. but along the
northern range of States it would do
quite as well. The most simple rule
can give as to adaptability to soil and
climate is to sow it where turnips will
grow we'll and you may be pretty sure
that there it will grow successfully.
have already hazarded the prediction
that some day TO- 600 900 head of lambs
will be fattened annually in the United
States on rape alone. So far from be-
ing disposed to take that statement
back or to modify it. l take this op-
portunitv of repeating it. | desire
to put myself on record in the press OF
the United States and in the presence
of all her farmers. My principal
reason for thinking thus is not found
simply in the value of rape as fatten-
ing food factor, although its proper
ties in this respect are wonderful, but
IN its adaptability to the genius of the
American people, in the ease with
which it may be cultivated and har-
vested. The farmer can do the culti-
vating seated comfortably on his i'm
plement used for the purpose and the
sheep do the harvesting. No slices
are required for rape have not
found any process, take it all in all,
equal TO the rye and rape for Destroy
ing weeds. We get two crops at the
same time in one year and leave the
land in fine condition for another crop.

CANNING FACTORY.
Shall 7oe haze One ills Spring
IS tile question:

Mr.. T. \. Achilli, of Chicago, who
represents Daniel g. French & Co.,
was in the city a few days the past
week during which time be met with
company of Twin City business men
in regards to the starting of canning
factory. He has great faith in the
canning business and believes that
such an industry would prove a
profitable investment for any one who
desires to 90 into it. He advised the
canning of peas, string beans, corn and
tomatoes beginning with the middle of
June ending by the first Of September.
By this time the cranberry crop would
be ready for the market. He says
cranberries can be canned just like any
fruit. 1t will require capital of about
$4,000 to get the machinery and build
ings ready for business. We hope
some of our idle capital may be induced
to take hold of this enterprise Mr..
Achilli sold the Miliston Canning Co.,
a complete outfit for such an enterprise.
We republish the following item found
in the Black River Falls Banner:
The Millston Canning Co. have closed
a contract for complete outfit of the
latest improved machinery for their
factory. The contract was given to
I. A. Achilli, of the firm of Daniel g.
French & Co., of Chicago, manufacturers
agents for Gamers supplies. The
machinery will cost considerable more
than was at first calculated, but this
was quickly settled by the stockholders,
as they all insisted on having the
latest and best equipment procurable.
The company is now negotiating with
farmers for produce, the farmers con-
tracing to cultivate certain number
of acres of vegetables of bis own choice,
and the canning company agreeing
to pay therefor at a specified price.
The new industry meets with universal
approval, and we predict that the
Millston Canning Co. will be taxed to
its utmost capacity to keep clear the
ingredients which the farmers agree to
bring in.

WE WE'RE RIGHT.

A few weeks ago we made local to
the effect that movement was under
way for the erection Of a ward school
house and that an option was obtained
on the west half Of block %, original
plat to the city of Centralia for $S75.
The Enterprise came out the past week
with the following item:
eve are authorized TO state that the
School Board of this CITY has no option
on lots for a ward or other school
building, nor are they contemplating
any such movement, statements in the
public press to the contrary nOtwith-
standing. The School Board is
powerless to move III this matter until
after the annual school meeting, which
will not be held until the month of
June"
In gathering items of news we always
take pains to get correct facts and
seldom fall short in our endeavors, but
the editor of the Enterprise seems to
delight in casting reflections upon our
news as unWarranted and without
foundation, as he has III the above item.
Now the facts are as follows: Mr.
j. w. Cochran, city attorney, commen-
ced correspondence with w. II. Cannon,
chief clerk of the State Land Office at
Madison, in reference to a $1,000 loan
for the purpose Of erecting a ward
school building. This correspon Gence
began the 18th of March. 4 notice for
special school meeting was placed on
file in the school clerks office asking
for meeting on the 9th day Of April.
10 substant1ate our statement we attach
said notice as follows:
SPECIAL SCHOOL MEETING.
Notice is hereby given to the qualified
electors of School District No. one ~,
of the City of Centralia, embracing said
City and called the Centralia High
School, that a special meeting of said
District will be held ut the school house
in said city and district on the 9th day
Of April, 1892, at O'Clock p. M, for the
purpose of voting on the following
propositions, towit:
|. To authorize the School Board to
make application for a loan of Four
Thousand Dollars from the State Trust
Funds, payable in eight years in equal
annual installments Of principal, with
interest at the rate of six per cent per
annum payable annually in advance,
for the purpose of selecting site and
buying the west half of Block %,
original plat in First ward of said city,
at the price of $S75, pursuant to an
option obtained thereon, or other site,
for school house, and building thereon
a Ward or branch school house.
End. To raise by tax sum sufficient
to pay principal and interest on said
loan as it becomes due.
This call is made pursuant to written
request signed by a sufficient number
of electors of said school district, dated
March Goth, 1892, and filed in my office
W. A. Peso, District Clerk.
Dated March 90, 1892.
Now if the editor of the Enterprise
will spend the time he wastes upon us,
in getting items of news in his city that
are as reliable as the one we published
about the new ward school, he will find
that it will pay him much better and
will be more honorable

Tuesday evening at the Opera House
was excellent. The bows are making
rapid progress and are deserving of
more liberal patronage than they
received on this evening. While the
attendance was not large, propably due
to the disagreeable, wet weather, there
were enough to comfortably fill the

be hoped that a large number will

them for their music is proving very
satisfactory and they are worthy of a
