The great and powerful plutocratic
press, which pretends to give the
the news and proceedings Of all prom.

'The Constitution OF the United

Here, rather than at any spot upon

should come to monrn over our dead
liberties and by our protest arouse the
imperiled nation to such actions as
shall rescue the Constitution and
resurrect our liberty. Upon these
steps where we stand has been spread

NEGLECT RUINS COWS.
Ir u Good MIX supply To Wanted Food
Must I,e Given Regularly.

Ir n Good MIX supply Is Wanted Food
Must Ee Given Regularly.
Writing from New Jersey dairyinan
says: 4 COW giving twenty-five pounds
of milk day while being fed at milk
ing. fell off to quarter OF that weight
in three weeks by having the time
of feeding changed. and being milked
by other hands. Both exerted their
special influence. But what was un-
usual was the regaining the former
quantity of milk by again receiving the
former ration at milking time and be-
ing again milked by the accustomed
mixer Another COW that had yielded
a large daily quantity of milk, having
greatly fallen off in her milk, was fed
at milking times, and. though millSed
by the same man as formerly. regained
her usual flow and quantity of milk
The ration at milking time must have
brought the change. large Short
horn COW owned by mixer and dis
tiller was fed good, rich slop at milk
ing time every day. which caused her
to fill large pail. so that the froth
overfiowed the pail. This COW. at the
death OF the milker. passed into the
hands OF neglcctful party and soon
dwindled to n poor mixer. The expe-
rience of those owning extraordinary
mixers will bear testimony to the good
effect OF liberal feeding at the time OF
milking. The family cow, generally,
is thus fed, and the average family COW
is the largest milher. The contentment
OF feeding COW causes her to give
down her milk in free and full measure
Kind treatment, at the same time, Is
paid for in milk. Cows thus managed
will, doubtless, pay larger percentage
OF animal profit than any other cows
not thus fed and treated. Many OF our
best dairy cows are injured by rough
hapd1iun
