crease in Net Earnings.
Notwithstanding the fact that the
gross receipts of the Rocky Mountain
Bell Telephone company for the year
just closed showed a decrease OF in
the neighborhood of $4,000 the net
earnings showed a gain. the peculiar
difference being due to the great re-
duction made in the operating ex-
penses Of the company. This was the
showing made at the annual meeting
of the stockholders Of the company
held yesterday afternoon. According
to the reports of the executive officers
the decrease in the regular service
amounted to about $4,000, while the
operating expenses were cut some S12,-
900. 1t was the tolls on special ser
vice which saved the ship and there
the value Of the extensions made dur
ing the year came in. This branch of
the COmpany'S business showed an in
crease Of something like $4,000. These
comparisons are made. Of course, with
the reports of the business of the year
previous. The reports gave entire
satisfaction TO the stockholders in at
tendance at the meeting and the eXecu-
tive officers received the congratula-
tons of the other members of the
company for their very conservative
management,
at the election of directors for the
ensuing year, $500 shares out of the
400 took part and the following
gentlemen were selected to serve the
Company. George Y. Wallace, George
=. DoWney. II. C. Hill, George NJ.
Scott. G. w Lyman, Alonzo Burt, J.
NJ. Stout, c. f. Lloyd and Thomas
Sherwin. In the organization Of the
board the following executive officers
were elected: President. George Y.
Wallace; vice-president, George e.
DoWney; secretary. II. C. Hill treas
urer, c, w. Lyman; general superin-
| tendent, d. S. Murray.
Previous to the regular meeting Of
the stockholders, the board of di-
rectorS held special session and con-
sidered matters relating to the future
work of the company. including num-
Der Of extensions to outside points
which have been contemplated for
sometime past. Nothing formal was
decided upon, but within the next few
weeks the board will again have the
matters on for consideration and It Is
highly probable that some important

THE DAIRY.

1t is rare that butter can be sold to

store.
A dairy library is a necessity for the
good dairymen in these days Of special
ties
Cooperative creameries run most
smoothly under the management of
one man.
Experience proves that good butter
can not be made where surroundings
are filthy.
Nothing but good butter makes
profit to anybody. Poor butter is
loss to everybody.
How much feed can your best COW
turn into butter? The more feed she
can transform the greater profit.
Never churn in a room whose tenn
perature is. higher than that of the
cream. It is 10 or Is degrees lower
so much the better.
Abundant experiment has shown that
the natural favor of butter can not be
removed by washing it with pure
water. says writer. Careful manipu-
lation, with the cream and everything
else just right, will make good butter
without washing.

A well house is a very handy thing
on a dairy farm. 1t should inclo5e
shelves. tables and other necessary
conveniences. It IS better, far better,
than to have the pump exposed to all
sorts of weather and better for the
dairyman to have shelter to work
under when it rains.
The advice to feed generously is
often given That does not mean, how
ever. that feed should be wasted or
carelessly fed, It is necessary to re-
duce the cost of production to the
lowest point Some cows Will do Just
about as much with SO much feed az
they will with more. The only thing
to do is test every COW on that line
Feed all she will utilize and no more.
Dairy farming is the highest type of
agriculture. A farmer of this class
must look for success in the maximum
productiyeness of a few acres, The
successful operation Of such q farmer
pre-supposes concentration of effort
and acreage. A thorough understand
ing Of fertilizers. their nature and an
pHcation may be regarded as the frst
principles Of a dairy huSbandry. While
the commercial fertilizers are bene-
fetal. the farmer should, strive, to llus-
band and make more effective the fer
tilizers of home production.

A Real Castle In the Air.

Mr.. Tobiansky, the engineer, is
starting company for the introduc-
tion Of novel feature to the Antwerp
exhibition which is to be held next
year. It is to consist of a raft, with
an area of about twenty square yards,
and constructed of bamboo rods and
steel and aluminium tubing, on which
palatial restaurant is to be erected,
and the whole suspended in mid-air at
an altitude of 500 yards by means of
captive balloons. An ingenious COM
bination of anchor cables will hold
this 'aerial CASTLE in position, and
effectively prevent any oscillation even
in the strongest gale. Two smaller
captive balloons, each to carry eight
or ten persons, will serve to convey
visitors to this foatingislan and back
again to terra frma. Each Of the
larger balloons is fitted with silk
tube, through which, by means of an
automatic arrangement, afresh supply
of gas is obtained when required.
Electric lamps of intense brilliancy are
fitted to the raft for the purpose OF
lighting the exhibition grounds. The
entire fabric can be brought down to
the ground in ten minutes by means
