A CHARMING ADDRESS.
DR.. f. C. Ray Speaks to Sixty People on the
subject of Culture.

subject of Culture
Sixty people attended the lecture by
Rev. DR.. E. L. Ray on Culture" at the
residence of Jonathan Thomas, on Har-
rison street, last night. DR.. Rays lee
ture was 4 most able one and showed
thought and preparation. He began
by tracing the word culture
back to its original agricultural
meaning. and said that tilling
of the soil was the original culture. He
urged that the small and weak things be
not despised and said the earliest traces
Of culture could often be seen in the
cheap chrome on the wall in farm
house. Science, he said, was not culture.
Neither is refinement although they both
attend and illuminate it. Culture is the
storage of truths in the mind and
living up to them. 1t is the opening Of
the windows Of he soul towards heaven.
DIR. Ray added that the chances Of a col
lege bred man for success were $50 to l.
Mr.. Rays address was along the line of
his present work, that of the educational
branch Of the Presbyterian church, edu-
eating ministers and building up weak
c,lleges.

None But Milk-Producers Should Be AL

Notwithstanding the numerous
warnings that have appeared in the
agricultural and daily press during the
past year, the creamery shark" con-
tinues to reap his harvest. The term
creamery shark" has been earned by
and is applied to the individual, or
firm, who goes into locality where
the farmers are ignorant of the dairy
business, and by securing the help OF a
few influential farmers-usually by
the distribution of few hundreds Of
dollars-succeeds in organizing a CO.
operative creamery company and Sc
cures contract for putting in plant
at about twice what it is worth.
In some paper not long ago saw an
article detailing the manner In which
the farmers Of that locality had been
swindled, as outlined above. In COM
menting on 1t the editor said that the
business men of the town were will
ing to help the farmers build a cream
cry by taking number of shares each.
While this shows enterprise on the
part OF the business men, and is com.
mendable, yet, strange as 1t may seem,
an action of this kind on their part
very often endangers the success of
the creamery. A cooperative cream
cry can attain its highess success only
when the members of the company are
producers Of milk. When the stock.
holders invest their money purely as q
speculation and are not patrons, the
advantages Of cooperation are partial.

If there were no dust, we would have
no blue sky, mo clouds, rain, snow or
beautiful sunsets. Dust furnishes the
ground work for all these. The small
est particles of dust reflect blue light,
hence the distant sky, where the light
est atoms float, appears blue. The
smoke from the burning end of a cigar
is of blush color; that drawn through
and blown from the mouth is white,
because the particles are larger and
can reflect more white, light. The sky
in cities appears gray or whitish be-
cause there are larger particles of dust
in the atmosphere. gut the most inn
portant Office of dust is that of rain
producer. As the particles float about
they gather moisture, which is precipi-
tated in rain. 1t is said that ''of all
the water evaporated by the sun from
the surface of the sea and land, not one
drop returns that has not condensed
upon particle of dust as a nucleus"
But for dust the air would be full Of
vapor, which would condense upon
everything it reached. 1t would enter
our dwellings, saturate our garments
and trickleover our walls and furni-
ture Therefore, while we may be great
ly annoyed by dust, we should be mucn
more Inconvenience by the absence

KNOWLEDGE

Brings comfort and improvement and
tends to personal enjoyment when
rightly used. The many, who live bet
ter than others and enjoy life more, with
less expenditure, by more promptly
adapting the worlds best products to
the needs of physical being, will attest
the value to health Of the pure liquid
laxative principles embraced in the
remedy, Syrup of Figs.
Its excellence is due to its presenting
in the form most acceptable and pleas
ant to the taste, the refreshing and truly
beneficial properties of perfect lax
alive; eflectually cleansing the system,
dispelling colds, headaches and fevers
and permanently curing constipation.
1t has given satisfaction to millions and
met with the approval of the medical
profession, because it acts on the Kid
neys, Liver and Bowels without weak
ening them and it is perfectly free from
every Objectionable substance.
Syrup of Figs is for sale by all drug
gists in SOC and 81 bottles, but it is man
ufactured by the California Fig Syrup
Co. only, whose name is printed on every
package, also the name, Syrup of Figs,
and being well informed, you will not
accept any substitute if offered.

who have hold of the loose end of the
rope to pull straight backward, and
down the animal goes, generally with
out a struggle. Keep his head down
and the rope firm, and, as a rule, the
animal lies quietly until such time as
1t is desired that he should get up,
when the rope is slackened and up he
gets, none the worse for the casting.
The heaviest bull may be cast in this
way; but, of course, no one should
think of casting cows in calf, either in
this way or in any other. Those who
have experienced trouble in the past
in trimming their bulls feet will
greatly appreciate this novel method
Of casting for that purpose.

Why Some Calves Sicken.

Calves scour and die because they
are overfed while young. Prevention
is better than cure and no medicine Is
SO good for sick calf as abstinence
before ne becomes sick. calf in his
natural state sucks the cow and has
frequent access to her udder, never II
one time getting large quantity.
When fed only twice per day the little
creature is so hungry he gorges, If per-
mitted, and his stomach, not being
mature and strong, rebels, throwing
the load into the bowels, there to fer
ment and cause trouble. II those who
fatten calves would but bear in mind
the truth that only small meal is
needed by a young calf they could
raise more and never be troubled by
scours. IL. Sage, in Farm and Home.
