States department Of agriculture had its
attention called to the discrepancy be-
tween the prices Of fat cattle on the hoOf
and the price Of prime beef in retail mar
kets before an investigation had bsen Au-
thorized by any person connected with
the department"
He declared that he did not credit tho
statement that the agitation had put
down the price Of live cattle and main
tanned the retail price OF beef, il, Rs it
wsa alleged by the Kansas City stock
yards people, prices depended now and
have depended all along on the relation
Of the supply Of beef to the demand for
beef.

How to Handle Patrons.

How to handle patrons just right is
sometimes a serious question, writes A.
Schoenman in the American Cheese
maker. 1t Is well known that q
cheesemaker, to be successful, must
have ability to handle patrons with
gloves on" as 1t were. The cheese
maker who simply examines the milk
and accepts or rejects without cere-
mony has much to learn. When
was teaching school and attending
teachers institutes, conducted by our
best state institute conductor, his adj
wise, first, last and all the time, was
Study your pupils. Each pupil is a
law unto himself and must be studied,
II you would get the best results"
Just so, l claim, is it with cheese
factory patrons. The cheesemaker
must study each patron and handle
him accordingly. The cheesemaker
who can make first-class cheese in
every respect, but who frequently gets
into jangle with his patrons, cannot
command the highest wages. Hand
ling the patrons just right is a most
important part of the cheesemaker's
business.
l will tell you how / handled a
cranky patron, this spring, where many
quick-tempered cheesemaker would
have failed.
Early in April I received vat Of
milk with a strong faint of rotten po-
tatoes-in fact, hardly knew whether
the product would be potatoes or
cheese. The next day took pains to
discover the rotten potato man, which
was easily done, but I was at sea just
what to do, as he was a valuable
but cranky patron; and knew stood
in danger of losing his custom If I
should say: This milk you must take
back; it is way off," I said to my
helper, run this milk into can by
itself and, If we can't make cheese Of
it, we will make potato dumplings. We
must visit our patron this evening, and
Well have to handle him with gloves
on Promptly at 6 p. M, we visited
his home. We found him at the barn
and casually and pleasantly asked him
to show us his cows. We talked cows
and milk and tests for some time. He
seemed pleased to have us take an in
terest in him and was, accordingly, in
good humor. ! said to him, did you
ever hear of potatoes tainting milk?"
NO" said he. l said, Rotten pota-
toes give milk worse faint than any
thing on Gods green earthv' els that
so? Say! l have my mornings milk
in the cellar now, and there are po-
tatoes down there and some of them
are rotten" "Well," said 1, eff that
is so, won't you please put your cellar
milk.in a separate can from the rest?"
eyes," said he, 81 will" The milk was
brought as promised and was way
off"-bad enough to sicken anyone. I
gave him sip and he made wry face.
"Of course" said I, that milk can't
take" And he willingly took it home,
a humber and a wiser man.

now his failure to return would be re-

longer flight. going back to that old
nome In the Empire State, and to ths
loved ones he could not hope to see
again. Perhaps the tears glstenei in
MS eyes as he thought of 1t all; but
there was no sign of fear in his de-
pertinent when, at the fated hour, he
was led forth to die.
by Jove! he's sure to break down be-
fore the signal is given" said the
sergeant who had charge of the squad
to place him in position for the closing
act in the awful drama.
Harry heard the words, and suddenly
lifting his head, he said:
GIVE me drum, sir, and 1 will play
a tattoo while you shoot me-"
did you ever?" exclaimed the officer.
II swear tbs a pity to shoot him like
this. But orders are orders, though
you may get MIN drum, Sawyer. He
viii forget while he plays"
BY the time Harry was blindfolded
drum was put into his hand. when he
instantly struck up the spirited notes
which had so often given life and hope
TO his old regiment of gallant soldiers.
No doubt the boy drummer did for
get the deadly danger that menaced
him as he caught up the beloved strain
and sent out to hill and valley the music
of which he was master. And If he for
got so did his captors for the moment.
The grim phalanx stood silent and mo-
tionless while it waited for the stern
command that was to end all.
Moments are priceless sometimes, and
the brief while that Harry Baldwin held
his enemies spellbound by his last
tattoo saved him his life, for suddenly
the clear notes of the drum were
drowned by the lusty shouts of men.
Then a body of Union cavalry flung
Itself upon the surprised Confederates.
Amazed bewildered, confident that no
small body of trops would throw them
selves single-handed upon overwhelm-
ing forces, they broke and fled in wild
disorder.
The fight was short but decisive, and
only a few minutes later the bandage
was torn from the drummer boys eyes
by friendly hands, and he was borne in
triumph back to the Union army.
