MARX RANNA IN CHICAGO.
PesTecting the Republican Plan of Cam
palm in the Vest.

fe>Jecttng the hepuottcdn ran OF Cuns-
paign in the Hest.
CHICAGO, ILL.,. Aug. 10. - The chief
event in Repu blican circles to-day was the
arrival of Chairman Hanna. He came in
at 7:25 A. NJ. and spent very busy day,
even doing some night work in the heat
of his room at headquarters. Mr.. Hanna
said there would be no Western National
treasurer. but merely an assistant to Mr..
Bliss. The matter of funds and method Of
handling them will be considered during
the week by Mr.. Hanna and his colleagues.
Messrs. Dawes, Durbin and Payne were
the committeeman who kept close to Mr..
Hanna during the deliberations at head
quarters, while National Committeeman
Hubbard of Minnesota and Jameson of
Illinois were in and out in an advisory
capacity. Messrs Babcock and Hall of
the Republican Congressional Campaign
Committee, Max Pract, chairman of the
Oregon State ommittee; Colonel A. T.
Bliss, recent candidate for Governor of
Michigan; and Mrs. ]. Ellen Foster were
among those who had interviews with the
campaign committee.
To reporter for the United Associated
Presses Mr.. Hanna said: 81 shall be here
the whole week and there will be confer
ences of the com mittee every day. To-day
we have been going over the details of or
ganization in the West. The reports from
the Western States made to me are about
what / expect. There is going to be a
hard contest, but hang my faith as to
the result on the intelligence and integrity
of the American people. do not think
the Republican party is losing anything
as time goes on. / find the educational
work that is being done entirely satisfac-
tory. There is no growth of the free-coin-
age sentiment in the Eastern States. The
condition in the South is unique. 1 do
not think man can tell how the South
ern States will go. We have as good
chance to carry Texas as Michigan. Party
The workingmen of the East talk to me
this way:
"'The money we've got is good enough
for US. What we want is chance to earn
it, They want protection to be made the
issue. I am surprised that so little has
been said in the granger States about reci-
piocity. 1t is going to be brought for
ward later. 1t is nearer the hearts of the
farmers than silver"
II. H. Rand, IN charge of printing con-
tracts, was Frustrated by heat this morn
ing and removed to his hotel.
The executive committee decided that it
would not buy any of the hundreds of
magazines, illustrated papers or books
which have been urged on the literary
bureau.

A s..f may be fed SKINNED milk when

gradually to a pint day when four
weeks old, and then adding fine mid
dlings or corn and oats ground together,
or pint TO one quart of oats unground'
Flaxseed cruel, with plenty of skim
med milk, will produce very fine
growth, leaving the calf as mellow to
the touch as if sucking the COW. A cali
two months old will gain three pounds

off in the cream can be replaced for one
fifth of the money value of the cream
Butter dairymen may raise a calf to
each cow upon skinned milk and a
little additional food, such as indicated,
and get one-fourth to one-third as much
profit out of the refuse milk as out OF
the butter. Selling butter robs the
land of nothing valuable-only carbon
which has no manurial value.

THE GRASSY FLAVOR.
why Change In Feed Should Always IA
Made with Caution.

Made with Caution.
1t is one thing to have pleasant
grass flavor and quite another to have
rank grassy odor to the milk. traces
OF which will be found in the butter.
Inc cause for the rank flavor can hc
round in intestinal arrangement due to
the change of feed. A radical change
In feed should always be made with
caution and be made gradually. To
change suddenly from dry feed to green
1eed will derange the digestive appar.
aus as surely as sudden change from
green feed to dry feed. And the change
should always be made when the stom.
ach is full. That is, do not give an ami.
mai food to which it is unaccustomed
when its stomach is empty. Give it first
feed of that to which it is accustomed,
and then add little of the new feed.
increasing the proportion of the new
KIND OF feed with each meal until a full
iced OF the new kind is given, the old
KIND being gradually diminished mean
while. In changing TO grass the way
to apply this method is to turn the cows
for all hour or so into the pasture, first
giving them their usual dry feed, then
take them off the pasture for the re-
mainder OF the day. The time they
are allowed to run in pasture can be
heightened each day until they are left
there all day. This will ordinarily re-.
quire but three or four days for the
change, but it is we'll to turn into a
pasture of flush grass but an hour or so
at time when it is wet with dew, un.
less the stock had become accustomed to
full grass previously. That is, chang.
ing from poor pasture to flush pas
ture is itself liable to make trouble if
done inconsiderately. The cow will be
apt to I'LL herself with rich grass beyond
what she is accustomed to, and it will
generate gases in the stomach and cause
bloat at the worst, and when the worst
does not occur there is still danger OF
inflammation of the intestinal canal,
which will cause looseness and give the
milk rank odor and flavor. Stock
should therefore be left in the new pas
ture but part of the day at first. If the
feed is much better than in the old
