APPEAL TO OUR People
Money Needed for the Red
Cross Relief Fund.
Rev. Judson Smith, d. D.. Wants
the People OF Boston 70 Lead a
Subscription with $50, 900 To Be
Followed by the Rest of the
Country.

Boston, Dec. 24.-The Rev. Judson
Smith, d. D., secretary of the American
board, has furnished the following:
"Appeal. to the people sof the United
States: Letters from Turkey and per-
sonal communication with officers of
the Red Cross impel NC to make an APP
peal to the people of the United States.
This appeal is made at the Instance of
the ministers meeting convened in Pill
grim hall to consider relief for Arme-
mans. The multitudes of the suffering
and perishing in Armenia have not
been In the IeaSt exaggerated, and
their distress deepens daily. Whatever
Is done for their help must he done
now, or it will be too late. The de-
mand is imperative for large sums to
be sent Immediately on their way. The
National Red Cross has publicly an
nounced its readiness to undertake this
work of relief But the Red Cross can
not move in this work until it has suf-
Acient funds with which to make a
beginning, and these funds ought to be
instantly placed at its disposal Will
not Boston without delay by large gifts
set the pace for the country in this
matter and put $4,000 at once at the
command of the Red Cross? The ex-
pedition can then be on its way before
the week ends, and the ministry of re-
lief which it is to render be promptly
begun. What do the men and women
of Boston say? What response shall
be made by the people OF the United
6tates?"
Sad News for Lynn Armenians.
Lynn, Mass, Dec. 24-Intense ex-
citement prevailed aFAng the Ar
menian residents of this city when
an Armenian visited the Morocco
factory of Ira S. Franklin of Broad
way, Wyoma, and exhibited to his
twenty-five fellow conntrymen en-
ployed there letter informing them
that many of their wives and children
had been slaughtered and their homes
and property destroyed. The Armeni-
ans at once called upon their foreman
and asked permission to leave the
factory and held meeting at one of
their boarding houses where the letter
with its heartrending details was read
to the assembled men.

On farm where four or more cows

DAIRY SUGGESTIONS.

When COW converts her food into
fat instead of milk, she is no COW for the
dairy.
1t will pay to keep good cows to sell.
There is always brisk demand for good
cows and always q limited supply.
Mixing meal with wet cut feed en-
sbles the animal to chew it in the cut
and thus comply with the demands of
nature.
Test the new milch COW, if you test
no other, for she may not be worth
keeping and ought to be got rid of at
the start
It is claimed that ripe, mellow apples
can be fed to mich COWS with greater
profit than will come from turning
them into cider.
We do not approve of feeding slops
TO cows. Give them what water they
want, and what feed they need. and let
them make their own slops.
There is a great difference between
feeding cow generously and feeding
her high. High feeding will probably
ruin her. 1t is worse than low feeding,
. good deal.
The farmer who lives near q town,
and makes but little more butter than
he needs for home consumption, ought
to find private market for the surplus
which he can do il it il good butter

lnere was an average OF ABOUT 20
COWS actually in milk in the dairy dur
ing the year. AS cows are bought and
sold, not the same 90 cows were in tho
herd throughout the year. There are
generally, also. three or four dry cows
in the herd.
From the summary it will be seen
that for the number of cows actually
i'll milk, 6,175 pounds of milk were given
per COW. The cost of food per COW was
$37.s3, and the cost of labor was $61.3
making a total expense per COW in milk
nearly S100. The labor. however, in
Guided a considerable amount of exper-
mental work, and also the labor of
taking care of dry cows, heifers, calves
and bulls. 1t also includes the cost of
retailing the milk. The cost for food
only relates to the cows in milk.
Assuming Sc pounds per gallon of
milk, the cost of food per galloreof milk
is So cents, the cost of labor per gallon
of milk S.5 cents,while the average price
received for milk on this basis was 20.5
cents. It will be seen that the average
cost of gallon of milk retailed to con
sumers was 1871 cents. The real cost,
however, is somewhat greater than
this, because more than SO pounds are
required for a gallon of milk when
peddled to the consumers. Iii worthy
of notice that the work was all done by
students, for which. it will be seen.
they received S1,595.44. The gross in
come from each COW actually in milk
was $147.60, the expense $9919, leaving
a net income per COW of $4s.61, or, for
herd of 26 cows, net gain of 81, 1885.

Kicks Impeachment Case.

The Judiciary Committee has decided to
take two days for debate Oh the Kicks i'm
parchment resolution in the House. While
there is, according to the members who OPP
pose impeachment, that Mr.. Broderick's
minority report may be substituted for the
majority report in Fridays committee
meeting, some Of Mr.. Kicks friends de-
clare that he would prefer to obtain the
verdict of the whole House OH the question
Of impeachment, rather than have the
charges stitled by a bare majority vote in
the committee. Several Democrats an
noslnce that they will sustain Judge Kicks
on the floor, and announce that the adopt
ion of the resolution will not be made a
party question. In case the resolution sue
ceeds it is probable that Messrs. Bailey and
will be appointed managers on the part of
the House to prosecute the case before the
Senate. Mr.. Bailey thinks the Senate
should be able to dispose of the matter this
session. Thelcase, h essays, should consume
but a few days, but if it is not tried he in
tends to bring it forward again early in the
next Congress.
