Tie Fla'iy Refuses TO Testify Before the
Grand Jury and H. Nanked Up BE
fore Judge Dale--DecIines to
Make a Statement.

Since the opening OF the strip there
have been many rumors ahoat that
there was crookedness in the conduct
Of the land Office at Perry. That in a
number Of instances applicants TO file
had been admitted to the office and
their entries taken far in advance Of
those in the line who were pursuing
the legitimate mode Of obtaining their
filings, and that a money coDsidera-
tion was being given by the parties
thus obtaining the advantage ot i'm.
mediate entries
The United States grand jury,
through Attorney Speed, has taken
cognizance Of these rumors and has
subpoenaed a large number Of wit
nesses from Perry in pursuing their
investigation Yesterday Mr.. Angus
tus Handlan. the sling clerk in that
Office appeared before the grand jury
in answer 10 summons A mum Der
of questions were propounded TO him,
whi.h q he refused 70 answer. giving a.
his reason that TO do 50 would tend in

vet do we'll. But very few stock will
eat long grass IL they can help it.
The short new growth is tenderer
and sweeter. and II one class Of stock
leaves patches of long grass those
following will be certain to do the
same. and often in this way. more or
less feed will be wasted. When the
largest number of stock is kept il is
quite an item to have the pastures
eaten down evenly. but at no time so
close as to have the grass plants in
jured. For this reason in the major
ity Of cases the better plan is to have
it divided into two 81 three fields.
and then change as may Be necessary.
A larger amount OF feed in proper
ton to the acreage can be secured in
this way. While one is being eaten
down the other will be growing. and
the stock being turned on the fresh
grass will eat down much more even
ly. and before the grass is eaten down
so close that there is danger OF the
grass plants being injured. they can
be changed to another Held.
A good time to change stock from
one pasture to another is just after
a shower, as the falling rain will
have tendency to wash off the dust
and dirt on the leaves and stems of
the grass, and make them cleaner
and more palatable. The objection
to allowing cattle and sheep to pas
ture together il that the sheep eat
the grass 80 close that the cattle can
not get their share. But this cannot
always be done without considerable
fencing; and this, of course. adds to
the expense of keeping up the farm.
But it is quite an item to make the
most out of the pastures. and at the
same time if the pasture is a good
one it will pay to manage so as TO
keep it in as good condition as pos
sible. Where full number of stock
Is kept to consume the farm prod
ucts to the best advantage. it will
pay to grow some crops that can be
used. If needed. at any time the pas
lures get short BY having the pas
ture divided. and taking pains to
manage carefully. large amount of
feed can be readily secured. and at
the same time the stock be kept in
better condition.

Developing the Heifer.

Too few dairymen thoroughly at
tend to the development of their
heifer calves From the time they
are calved. until they are let go dry.
after having their own first calf, is
the time when the experienced dairy
man lays the foundation upon which
it is possible to develop a future
record breaker. The main point be-
hind that is. that the heifer should
be the progeny of a sire and dam
deeply bred in deep. rich milking
dairy strains-performers at the pail,
of robust. vigorous constitution
hearty feeders and all the better ii
possessed of longevity and thriftiness
throughout their entire career. Be-
ing the possessor of calf from such
ancestors, any thoughtful owner
should. know that the chances for a
return, on account Of proper handling
is not by any means a problematical
conundrum. Let then such a valu-
able calf be raised well. on such milk
and feed as will develop every part of
its wonderfully perfect organi-
cation to their fullest capacity,
by such feed and pasture, as
are known to suit, from their most
tender age upwards; shelter. shade.
exercise and pure water must also
play an important part in the process
Of the full development, yet still
further the genius of the skillfull
dairyman. as it were by natural in
tuition that makes him feel kindly
akin to his favorite cattle, early be-
gins to bring them up in such a way
that they SO become domesticated as
to seemingly understand. from an
early date, what they are here for.
Thus then they grow up. daily getting
better prepared for future usefulness.
While getting in an interesting con-
dition, before dropping their first
calf, such heifers are most interest
ing study. II their attendant is the
right sort OF a man they will never
seem so happy. as when he is around
them, and before their first import
ant part in life is played, they are so
domesticated as to rarely cause any
trouble. The next point then is suit
able feed to her condition, for the
first week or ten days, and then be-
gins the further work of developing
gradually to q higher and yet safe
limit and for the first year milking
her over twelve months SO as to fix
the tendency towards giving milk ten
to eleven months of the year in her
disposition. for, las the twig grows
80 is the tree inclined. ~ Kansas
