The cable connecting the United States
government telegraph line with Tatoosh

about $3.50 q IN. today. This cable has
been in operation for nearly three years.
and 10 one Of the heaviest cables made. IL
was laid at cost Of 5000. and broke tho
first winter IL was down. At that time the
government thought OF abandoning the
cable at that point and changing the sta
ton to Waddi island. which lies just of
Neah bay. but as the break was found to
be very near shore 1t was repaired at small
cost
II is not definitely known whore the
break Is. Should 1t prove to be in deep
water tho cable vii, very likely be aban-
doned. rs il would hardly pay to repair IL.
On account OF the extreme roughness OF
the coast where 10 crosses, it would bs

break has probably been caused by chating
against the rocks. but 1t In strange the
trouble should occur at this time, as tho

THE COUNTY OFFICIAL PAPER.
Decision That the Treasurer May
Award Delinquent Tar Iist rrtntime.


SSoaosasH. March 27.-lSpecial- -
Judge Denney today decided that the
revenue Law of 1898 gives to the county
treasurer discretion TO select paper in
which 10 advertise the delinquent tax list.
The question came up on the application
of the Democraf for q writ of mandAmus
against the county treasurer to compel
him to advertise tho list with II on the
ground that il had been designated by the
commissioners as the county official paper.
The county treasurer answered that he
had already contracted with the Tsibaas
TO do the work at q compensation not to
exceed that paid the DsmocYat for official
work. Judge Denney held that the treas
urer was not restricted TO the official paper
in making his selection. and so denied the
application for the writ The question has
been a mooted one, and has been the
subject Of con Trajectory opinions from the
attorney generals and state auditors
Offices. Ii arises over tho apparent con-
fiict between section 2.ess Of the General
Statutes and section 96 of the revenue Law
OF 1873. The former provides that IL shall
be the duty Of the county officer having in
charge the publication Of the dslinquent
tax list to publish IL In the official paper,
''having due regard to the circulation"
and that IL any paper 90 selected shall be
unwilling or unable to do the work the
treasurer may select another. The attor-
neys for the county treasurer also raised
the point that the old Law had been re-
pealed by the revenue iaw Of 1880, which
contains this provision: "Ail laws and
parts Of laws heretofore enacted upon any
OF tie subiscts In this oct provided for bs
and the same are hereby repealed il was
partially on this ground that Judge Den.
ney based his decision. though the incon-
sistsnciss pointed out between the two
acts in question were % apparent that he
said It Was plain that they could not stand
together, and hence the former. which Was
enacted In 1878. must give way 10 the en-
actment Of 1854 II was supposed that tho
case would be appealed 20 the supreme
court but IL IL believed nov that IL will
not be.

COW finding she is not to be injured be- gins to give down. as we say-when the milk is rapidly but carefully remov- ed. The hand should be frequently opened wide to relax the muscles of the same, and as soon aS the milk flow begins to decrease, the hand should grasp the udder gently above the teat, so as to bring the milk down into the teat quick ly. at the same time, quickly and con- stantly changing off, first two then the other two teats. l have seen some milk CTS who would milk two teats entirely dry before drawing any from the other two. This, too, is wrong. All should be milked as nearly together as possible, and here comes in the most difficult part of the whole operation, to get done as it should be.
 In conversation with an intelligent dairyman a few days since who keeps d large dairy, he told me he was surpri ed to ind so many even among COW owners who fail to milk their cows clean. There are in these two extremes, one milker will set and strip aud strip when there is nothing to get, while another will milk as long as he can get full stream and then get up and leave the COW. Both are wrong. As soon as the two teats giving least come to stripping, l milk the other two as long they give good streams changing off frequently, and then to finish go round from teat to teat, claspiDg as much of the udder as l car with one hand and with the other grasp the teat, hold and quickly squeeze the milk out. Going thus very quickly from teat to teat, every last bit of mill is removed, and the COW is mixed clean 1 To sum up the whole matter, the quicker, and at the same time the more gently the milk is removed, the more anC the better milk our cows will give J

THE ART OF MILKING.

There are those who think it is no trick to milk, and who do not think there is any particular difference in milkers. It has been great surprise to me to find so many poor milkers and that, too, among those who have always lived up- on the farm and milked more or less all their lives.
 Some years ago, a young man, neighbor, whose father kept some 10 or l2 cows, came to work for us. l saw at once I could easily milk three cows to his two, although he seemed to work much harder at it than did. sat down beside him and saw at once where he failed. Instead of getting a good grip he was tapping his fingers around the teat with his thumb extended up beside the teat. I took one of his fingers in my hand and gave it the same grip he did the teat, and asked him if that felt as if it would bring out the milk if his finger were the cows teaG. Well no, not much' he replied. I then took hold as I did in milking, and at short notice he saw the wide difference bet veen shut | ting the fingers closely and tapping them around the teat. He was one of the young men who was ready and willing to learn, and soon became good milker. | 1 sometimes see statements from vet erinarians that Jumps in cows teats are caused by mere pressing the fingers into the teats. This may sometimes occur, but I believe is entirely uncalled for. l The finger nails must DC kept pared close, and then one should grasp the teat in the same manner he would rope he expected was to save his live. Not in a rough manner but gently and firmly. have seen milkers give jerk on the teat every time stream was drawn. This is all wrong, as it tends to irritate and an- nOy the COW.
 Again, some will sit down, and wheth- CT the milk begins to flow or not, begin to open and shut the hands on the teats to the tune of ''Money Musk" or "Fish. CTS Hornpipe." This, too, is wrong be. cause Of the same result; it annoys the COW. A really first class milker will sit down and by gently stroking the COW
 and by kind word assure her of his friendly presence. After carefully brushing off the udder and side of the COW, he will gently take hold of the teats
 and by so doing will not excite the COW and after a few streams are drawn the

oILING AND PUTTING ON WASHERS.

It sounds like very c common order to say, "John, put a set of washers on the carriage and oil it." but such orders are given to coachmen and livery stable en- ployes, and by it hundreds of aXles are spoiled every year. In the first place, they have no scientific principles to gov ern them in doing the work, and think it no more than putting piece of leather on the shoulder of the axle and a piece in the nut, and if it is too thick they will trim it down until the wheel works free, after putting about gill of wheel grea asr on the axle and then pushing it all ufl again when they put the wheel on. Then they expect the wheel to run q week without oiling again.

WEAVING THE COLTS.

Many young colts are to be weaned in a short time. At least one month before
 it is intended to do this, the colt should
 be fed regularly good ration of oats and
 other grain. Beginning at the same time with feeding, it should be limited in the
 mothers milk gradually, so that during the last week it shall have the milk but once a day. The colt should, ealso, dur ing these four weeks be haltered an hour or two, morning, noon and evening by the mothers side. In this way the wean- ing process may be more easily carried out. After weaning, for at least a month, the colt should be haltered regularly at feeding time for an hour only, then re- leased in a box-stall to eat hay. In Sep tember it is usually better to confiue them in a stall than to allow colts to run in the pasture and heat their blood unduly by running. Regular feeding and watering will soon satisfy the colt that he has

something to live for, especially if he has company and is allowed sight of other ho ses as much as possible. Two or more colts together will get along much more contentedly than one; but do not neglect to feed well for eight or nine months af- terward. It is well to remember that this is the best possible time to accus- tom the colts thoroughly to the halter. ii they are led to water and tied for a time to post in the yard, much of the annoyance which often comes in the grown horse from pulling on the halter will be prevented. But one cannot be too cautious about leaving young colts hatered during the night or during half a day, when no one is near to ex, tricate in case of any trouble. In this respect they learn slowly, and demand patience for several months.-T
