Summer Shrinkape of Milk.

During the hot, dry months, when
flies are abundant, COWS are almost sure
to shrink In the milk flow. There arc
some points about this matter that are
we'll to consider. A great many dairy
farmers follow the practice of turning
the cows into a small pasture at night
for the sake of the convenience Of find
ing them easily the next morning. Dur
ing the day the cows are SO bothered by
flies that they will not eat what they
should even if it is easily procured. If
they cannot Craze at night, the result
will be they get too little food in the "a
hours and must of consequence shrink
in their milk.
The wise dairyman will see to 1t that
the COW has plenty to eat. If it requires
q little extra study and effort on his part
to get it for her, he will do it. for he
knows this important fact-that If tho
COW shrinks in summer he can never get
her back to as large flow in the fall as
he otherwise would. Good management
of the cows is one Of the foundations of
success in milk production. Flies in the
daytime and confinement Mt night will
beat the best COW in the world.

Unhappy Cheese Standard


We have on our statute books law
which we call double header" be-
cause it is doubly violated. This law
requires that all cheese branded "stand-
ard'' must contain at least 30 per cent
pure fat, but cheese buyers who have
handled and tested those standards find
that they average not over 25 per cent
fat. But, to cap the climax, the buyer,
when he receives those misrepresented
standards, willfully obliterates its brand
and miraculously transforms them into
a full cream cheese. Hence he is shrewd
enough to see that large quantities of
our cheese being in fact third skins
are sold in all the principal markets Of
the world as full cream cheese.
ask, Need he be very shrewd to SEQ
that such law, violated as it is every
day in the year, must inevitably work
great havoc upon Wisconsin full cream
oheesep He also knows that we have
swept the deck at every recent cheese
exhibit and that only few days since
we laid Canada in the shade by several
points, and he asks himself why then
does Canada outsell us at every point7
On investigation he finds that Canada
prohibits the manufacture Of everything
but full cream cheese, and when con-
sumner buys Canadian cheese he knows
what he is buying and will pay accord
ingly, while we by law have been maxi
ing trash of our cheese, and the consum-
er when he buys Wisconsin cheese
doesn't know whether he is buying trash
or cheese, and he says to himself, II
will not be deceived; won't buy it un-
less I can buy it for trash," and pays &c
cordingly.-Address at Dairy Conven-

Dairy and Creamery.

The ancestors of the Guernsey and Jer-
sey cows were found In Normandy and
Brittany more than century ago. The
Norman COW was a large red animal.
The Brittany cow was a small black one.
The two breeds became mingled in ono
and crossed to the channel islands. Tho
modern tendency has been to differen-
tate the species again, developing from
the mixed channel islands breed ono
family of red or orange tinted cows,
which are called in our time Guernseys,
another family of spotted black or fawn
colored COWS with dark noses, some
what smaller than the other branch, and
these we call il our time Jerseys.
Next time buttery tongued agent at
a fair or elsewhere tries to delude you
into believing oleomargarine is better
than butter turn on him and ask him
why his millionaire employer, who makes
the stuff at his factory, does not use it
instead Of butter.
American butter today Is far superior
to what it was 90 years ago. This is
partly owing to improved cows, partly
to improved methods OF making butter.

To ascertain tho effect of grain ra-
ton on COWS at pasture, l. z. Roberts
and II. H. Wing, at the New York
Cornell station D. 3G). have fed for three
summers a mixture of two parts corn
meal. one part bran and one part cotton
seed meal to Jerseys and Holsteins.
Each cow was fed gallon daily in two
feeds, night and morning. In 1899, with
good pasture through the summer, the
grain fed cows produced less milk and
as much butter.

In 1890, with good pasture, grain feed
ing did not increase the butter. In 1891,
with short pasture, the grain fed cows

pay for the grain. but each grain fed
cow gained % pounds more flesh.

The colored citizens of Waco and
the surrounding country are cele-
brating the anniversary of the day
on which they were set free.
They were abroad at an early
ho1r and a constant stream Of wag.
ons and other vehicles poured over
the suspension bridge.
The eating houses and saloons on
city hall square did big business
and the pockets Of the lemonade
and popcorn men bulged out and
clincked merrily with nickels.
Marshals and aids cavorted about
on galloping steeds, while brass
bands could be heard footing in the
distance.
Noises which sounded like the
firing of cannon resounded in the
neighborhood of the city hall and
investigation developed citizen in
gorgeous blue uniform and white
helmet with yellow plume stand
ing in the middle Of the street with
a long iron in his hand. This he
made red hot at fire and applied
to two anvils, one inverted over
the other, when loud report fol.
lowed, shaking the windows in the
neighboring buildings and making
the horses tied in the neighborhood
jump and prick up their ears.
As soon as the anvils event Off"
a party in citizens clothes ran to
the noise producer, took a big pinch
of powder from a cigar box and
packed it in the hole Of the lower
anvil, put the other on top, the
man with the red hot iron gave
warning and off it went.
The Sunday school Of the colored
Baptist Church met at the church
on First street and number of the
children mounted a gorgeously dec.
Grated float, as did the Sunday
school of st. Paul's A. M. X. Church
on Second street. Children from
various societies, on floats and in
wagons, were driven to Eighth and
Gay, where the procession formed.
Headed by brass band and major
domo and followed by the local
soldier company in black silk shirts
and white trousers, besides a long
line of carriages and other vehicles,
the procession wendell its way
over the line of march to the park
on Second street, where speeches
were made and various amusements
INDUCED in. There was also a pic
mic in Fast Waco.

On Austin Avenue In Broad Day
light.
About O'Clock Saturday after.
noon on Austin avenue, between
Fourth and Fifth, just about Cog
gan's, a News reporter was actual
ly "held up" and his attention de.
manded. The crowd of people
going into Conner Il fuckers and
coming out with shoes under foot
and a smile on their faces, was cal.
culated to stop any one. He said:
els this Wacol"
'Is this the middle of JuneP"
"Verily, whence cometh all this
money!"
Thinking that they might be
giving away shoes, he went In for
his.
Store was crowded; dozen people
to clerk. People bought easy. A
glance at the shoes, whist of
paper, twirl of string, and, "There
you are, sir, thanks" Just like a
horse race, only safer, as there were
no losers.
Looked like fall; could imagine
it easy. The rush of people, rattle
of money, store cool as refrigera-
tor.
Asked Mr.. Conner "How do you
account for this?"
He said, $50 after it; got the
goods; know it; prices right; new
goods; fair treatment; lots of
things; can't talk now; come around
again"
They seem to have something to
bring things their way. 1t was ev'
identity a great evidence of Waco'l
prosperity. For people had money
and bought goods.
All houses seemed to be doing 8
good business, and one would have
to hunt for any proof of a strin
gency.
