New YORK, Oct. 3.--Fully 10000 peo-
pie visited the yacht Valkyrie today. 1t
it is doubtful if one person in dozen
who viewed the Valkyrie today knew
the keel from spanker, but that made no
difference. The storm keeps coming,
and it is likely both boats will bury
their noses during the great race.
II the storm continues on it's
present course it will surely hit the old
Sandy Hook lightship. and those who
have been praying for blow will GER
tainly get it. The Valkyrie was taken
off the dock today, and the Vigilant is
expected from New Rochelle. Both
yachts will be measured for the time
allowance and will be in readiness for
the great race tomorrow.

tree requires richer soil than the apple,

The land should slope to the nortl,

Are men to allow greed to SO DOM

regard cattle mere machines, but
the fact remains that they are OF SEN

gree too often lost sight of. The idea
that it is just as we'll for a COW,
either in point of comfort or health, to
be tied up six months with no exercise,
is contrary to all physiological teach
ing, that nutritious food, light and OK
ercise are necessary to the maintenance
of health and 4 full development. Give
COWS chance to so out in the sunlight
of the warm days in winter and see
how quickly they go, and the real
enjoyment depicted on their expressive
faces. Even though the mill<tlow may
be omewhat lessened, will not what

''It is gratifying to notice the interest

pose of making recommendations to the

those of foreign countries, nor of

HANGED the value of property, but with

to estimate. The farmer will be the
greatest beneficiary in this matter

months in each year the farmer is un.
able to do anything because of impass-
able roads. His teams are idle, and
the profits of the months he has toiled

CAIRYING FOR PROFIT.

How Get at the Real Source OF Income
in the Industry.
Dairying for glory has never been a
popular pastime, and it is not likely to
lie engaged in to any great extent.
Hope of profit is the alluring influence
in this, as in any other productive in
dustry. The objective point of every
dairy man should be to produce the
most possible of the best possible arti-
Gle, ut the least practicable cost, to be
sold at the highest obtainable prices.
There is no poetry in this view of the
business, but there is n vast deal Of
common sense in it. This being the
end in view, that dairyman who pays
no attention to the productive capacity
of his stock, whose cows are bought
with an eye to what they cost and with
no reference to what they can do, who
ignores the whole subject of what and
how much he m arkets. who shuts his
eyes to all sorts of information rc-
specting his business-whosc manage
ment, in short, is slipsh cd and in every
essential uncertain-failS to get at the
real source of profit in his industry.
Every point needs to be carefully stud
led, everything which can be made to
contribute to success utilized. 1t is
better to abandon the business than
conduct it on any other plan.-Farmers

The young calves will be very thank
full for small allowance of mixed

this is given by hand, in dish, it will
tame the young things and make them
SO docile that there will be no trouble
when the calves grow up to COW S es-
tate. and must be MIXED and handled.
A heifer coming in should never need
to be broken. This training, not
breaking, should be done early and in
the winter when the opportunities are
plenty. and if we'll done there will be
no bad habits to be broken. The care
should be to lead the young animal by
degrees from one stage to another to
perfect familiarity with it's keeper.
There will be no vicious or refractory
cows in a dairy managed in this way.
