more than the dairyman, IN that
while he needs must do and know
all that the dairyman knows ana
does. he has need to do and know
much more; he must be farmer as
well.
1t is better to give cows fine salt
as licking lump makes the tongue
of The COW sore. Better have 1t hne ;
tl,cn leave it in convenient places IN
the pasture when the cows nave
free access to it cured, OF course
A bright farmer told the Farmer
and Homes recently that ne could
make as much money from 40 hens
as he could from his best COW, and
he doesn't keep poor stock. In his
opinion the money is easier made
with poultry than with the dairy
1t is poor policy to always sell the
best animals. Good stock to breed
from, good dairy COW, good
farm horse, will pay you to own, as
well as anybody else. Keep the
choicest and utilize their whole earn
ing power at home Farm Life.

CLOVER IA Y.

AS the best clover is very near the
best for feed stock, almost equal to
grain, so the poorer qualities range
all the way down to what is hardly
fit for anything except bedding and
manure. The fact that clover hay is
very hard to cure properly has much
to do with this difference in quality.
Besides, no one can tell from looking
at clover hay what its quality is.
The very blacklist may be sweetest
and best for it may be that which
grows after the first cutting and has
to be cured in the shorter days oil
September and October, II a wet
time comes on while this second
crop of clover is being cured the hay
will be blackened, though it is nat
urally richer and sweeter than Jun,
clover and animals will eat it readily
however black it may be- Ameri

DAIRY MYSTERY CLEARED.


What has been a mystery for some
weeks to the dairy people on Col
X. Nj. Lynchursts's fine stock farm
situated nine miles from BushyIlle,
was solved a night or two ago by a
shrewd mixer known as Jim. Into
Inns special care was intrusted the
coloneI's blooded cow called Ken
lucky Rose, which has been accus-
toned to give three full gallons OF
rich milk daily. But all at once
Kentucky Roses milk dwlndled
down to a gallon, scarcely enough
for her calf.
Why was this Jim puzzled over
it, the other darymen wondered,
and at last the matter was taken TO
the colonel. The latter declared at
once that the calf broke loose during
the night and had managed to dram
her nearly dry. The calf proved its
own innocence by growing thinner
from day to day and the activity
with which it ran and seized its
mother. The long and short OF it
all was that the calf was going to
die if the thief was not discovered.
Thereupon the colonel went to work
in earnest.
Every night he joined the watch
ers and even trained his fine setter,
Iessamine Bell, to stand and make
no noise, so as to catch the robbers
off their guard. But one morning
Iessamine Bell turned up with a
closed eye, and could not be induced
to ioin them. After waiting until
nearly morning the party started
for home, when all at once the col
one saw a white object shoot
across a patch of moonlight.
He and Jim returned to Kentucky
Roses stall, the farthest from the
sleeping-rooms of the men, just as
Iessamine Bell managed to squeeze
himself through the narrow pass in
to the stall. The two men ther
noiselessly climbed to the loft above
and there they saw the setter on hl'
hind legs steadily draining the COW
The next day he was seen to steal tt
her pasture, which is separate one
and to give himself another gooc
meal, but on looking up he saw hi
master and the man Jim gazing a
him with laughing countenances
He dropped his tail and disappeared
avoiding the other animals and TIN
men on the place as well as his mas
teri Phiadelphia Times.

VALUE or ENSILAGE,

Ensilage is a valuable food for va
rlous reasons;
list. For the nutritive elements it
contains.
I'd. 1t is a succulent food.
Sd. All cattle relish it more than
any other fodder grown on the farm,
and by actual experiment it has been
found that anything the animal de-
YOURS greedily produces better re-
suits than the same amount of feed
ing value fed in shape that the ami
NAL does me- like.
1stn. 1t is easily masticated and
digested, and this element in dairy
feed is OF great Importance. No feed
produces good results in the dairy
which is not easily masticated and
digested.
Dat hay is also a cheap fodder,
and if 2 bushe of peas are sown to
the acre it will make it still better.
1t needs to be cut as soon as heads
ofgrain appear Rollin c. Smith,

PRA CTICAL GLEANINGS.

Do not try to harden young
animals by needless exposure Ru-
raj Canadian.
Less acreage and better cultiva-
ton should be the watchword.
Go slow in turning cattle and
horses out, and wait the drying of
the surface and a better growth of
the heritage,
A farmers wife says THE COWS
and the hens paid for the farm.
They marched up with their butter
and eggs each year and ate up the
notes as they fell due
Sheep, when well sheltered during
the fall and winter, will not only
shear more wool, but it will be of a
better quality than those exposed to
the weather.
Ii is said that some of the dairy
men who most loudly denounce
oleomargarine have been very anx.
ious to obtain "back pepsin" to
make something that would turn all
the skinned milk into butter.
Because bright timothy hay and
oats are the best feed for horses il
does not follow that they would not
like a change from it sometimes, Oh
that they would not do better fol-
such change.
The farmers who are successful
are those who never lose sight of tn,
fact that the farm is a home; tina
everything done toward beautifyinj
and improving the place is enhanc
ing its value.

VALE.

40 tne patrons OF the REPORT
and the community at large:
With this issue we retire from
the management of the Cotton
wood REPORT. Some six months q
since we recognized the impor-
tance of a town like Cottonwood
having its own local paper, es-
pecially when slow moving OBJ
jects and towns are invariably
placed far in the rear in the on
ward march of today. Since we
commenced the publication we
have earnestly labored for what
we believed to be the best inter-
ests of this portion of the coun-
try and for the upbuilding of the
town of Cottonwood. True, as is
always the case, we may have, in
some instances, erred, but We
earnestly invoke your kind in
dulgence and ask that such mis-
takes may be accorded to too
honest zeal for the development
of Camas Prairie.
The first issue of the REPORT
found Cottonwood known only
as little stage station on the
foad to Grangeville and Denver
no one pausing to recognize the
superior advantages that this
quiet burg might offer. The
stranger, when spoken to about
Cottonwood was quick to ask
where it was located from Den
yer and Grangeville. Today
Cottonwood is known through
out the entire country and sell
dom a week passes but that our
exchanges and other papers do
not make some pleasant mention
of the town, Today the REPORT
has built for itself the best adver-
tising patronage in. Idaho County
and if the growth of its subscrip-
tion list in the next six months
but continues as in the past it
will stand as the largest and
strongest paper in Idaho County.
AS the growth, development
and good done by a local paper
depends as largely on its patrons
as its management, we feel but
called upon to thank the people
of Camas Prairie and especially
of Cottonwood for their liberal
support and patronage.
The new management Of the
REPORT, will, we trust, be as for
tunate in securing the co-opera-
tion Of the public as the public
has seen at to give us during our
short stay among you in the
newspaper work, meeting with
the same success that has
crowned our efforts and being
able to avoid all the little mis-
takes that we may have made.
Again thanking those of the
people who have SO aided us in
Dur work, we bid to all a kind
.atfieu.

Subscribers who have paid fol
the paper will receive it regularly
for their full time, the same az
though no change had been made
IN the management. Those who
have not settled for their sub.
scription will also receive theii
paper and will be subject to col.
lection from us. Subscrintion
rates will remain the same as
heretofore.
Mr.. PHILLIP w. Pearson will
hold the position of "Local Ed
itor"; also he will have charge Of
the mechanical work necessary
for the issuance of the paper and
is authorized to receive and re-
ceipt for subscriptions and adj
vertisements.
Politically the REPORT will be
neutral-the senior member of
the firm being Republican, the
junior Democratic. We believe
in "The greatest good to the
greatest number, and shall sup
port men, not politicians.
1t is our ambition to make of
the REPORT a newspaper second
to none in the county-a paper
devoted to the advancement and
encouragement of the best inter
ests of Cottonwood and Camas
Prairie, journal whose watch
word shall be Truth, a periodi-
cal whose merit and worth shall
command the esteem and appro-
baton of the intellectual portion
of the community in which it is
published.
= We expect to secure regular
correspondents from all sections
of the Prairie and Craig's Noun
tain, and thereby, be enabled to
give full and reliable news from
every neighborhood. I'VE invite
a full and free discussion Of all
subjects of public interest; but
will hold. ourselves responsible
for the opinions and assertions
of DO one except ourselves.
1t is our desire to keep the
columns of the REPORT free
from offensive personalities, but
we are are death on dead beats
and may occasionally see fit to
demolish an individual to whom
this epithet is applicable. If a
man smites as on the right
cheek we shall not turn our left
but shall buckle on our armor
sail in, and proceed to give him
"Hail Columbia" with all the
vim and vigor of a Kansas cy-
clone,
Hoping our efforts will merit
the good will and patronage OF
one and all, we are, yours faith

p5Nred on behalf of Auditor Teale, and

poeteron.s for Miss lIelso and the library
directorate expect he taxpayers of the
city to foot an expense account of the
nature furnished by Mise Kelso.
Admitting, he saidl for the sake of

He tholsght,that if the Ncity librarian

Chicago for sinstruction, that some one
should be sp pointed who could fill the
poeition, M iss Kelso was paid q

he could find nothing in the city char

In conclusion<the attorney submitted
that there was no proof that Tessa
Kelso ever went TO Chicago at all.
Attorney Borden did his best with a
thankless task, ant in his reply to At
torney Crutcher's argument, took his
stand by kind of '.highbinGsrs' faith,
and declared that the board of library
directors had sufficient authority vested
in them to compel the city auditor to
number and record any kind OF de-
mand they might see fit to send in.
From present appearances Miss
Kelso's 5000 will not come out OF the
city treasury. From the remarks
dropped yesterday by Judge Shaw he
was apparently of the opinion that thel
demand was an illegal one. He took
the matter under adyisement, however.
