Value of Skim Milk.
Comparatively few farmers realize
the value of skim milk when intelli
gently fed to calves and pigs. 1t is
worth as food for pigs Is cents per
hundred pounds when live hogs are
worth four cents a pound. 1t should
be fed in connection with some grain
food, as better results are obtained
in this way than by making it the
entire food of the animals. You can
secure more profit by feeding to pigs
of less than 100 pounds in weight
than when fed to heavier ones, When
fed to pigs with an equal quantity of
corn, rye meal or wheat middlings
satisfactory results may be expected.
Calves can be taught to drink this
separator skim milk when quite
young, the age depending on the
vigor of the calf Some calves can
safely put on clear separator milk
when week old, while others cannot
before they are month old. Many
make the mistake of feeding too much
skim milk. They seem to think it
has little value and the calf should
have more of it. This is mistake.
Feed no more of it than would be fed
of new or whole milk from it's mother.
The milk. should be warm as the
mothers milk. Many fatal mistakes
are made by feeding cold milk to
calves, especially to young calves.
Overlooking is likely to seriously in
jure the calves. Do not feed the
heifer calves to fatten them, but to
make good growth. And they will
make better COWS than when kept fat
as youngsters,

the creamery but the patrons as we'll.
1t is most happy combination when
creamery company can secure a
competent buttermaker who will also
be agreeable to the patrons and at the
same time sufficiently firm in dealing
with them to insist on bringing or
sending to the factory nothing but
the very highest quality of milk that
is possible to produce under the
circumstances. There is disposition
in the districts where creameries are
most plentiful and competition is
strongest to be somewhat lax in re-
gard to the requirements for furnish
ing milk. The farmers are, like
other men, disposed to do as little
work as possible, believing that all
the extra labor and care they put
upon the milk is 80 much taken from
the shoulders of the creamerymen.
and that the price they receive will
be just as good for milk handled in
slovenly, uncleanly and careless way,
with even a large amount of cream for
coffee and other culinary purposes,
as if they furnis h the very highest
grade of milk possible, containing 4 to
5 per cent butter fat.
We have before us an illustration
of some of the methods employed by
the buttermakers, who ought to
know better. They are DESTROYS, of
course, of securing the very best pay
possible, but forget that their CON
tinued success depends upon their
knowledge and the uniformly good
result obtained for the proprietor of
the factory. The buttermaker who
allows his patron to furnish his poor
milk, unclean milk, is doing that
injury, not only to every other patron

OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
Sixth Ward Alderman Accused
Of Political JuggIery.
TALK ABOUT HIS DRAIN EXPOSURE.

Said That He Awaited the Timely Oppor-
tunity to Spring Il - m Impetus
to His Mayor.lty Bee Aspirations-
Boosting His Little Boom.
They are saying cruel things about
Aid. Bill Kennedy among republic
cans these days. The Sixth warder
is known to be fostering another of
those mayoralty bees. and now he Is
accused OF smothering that storm
drain sensation until it was ripe for
spriDging with the aim Of making
himself hero of q sensational dis
covery-and all to further his oppor-
tunities for capturing the nomination.
The charge is made that if Aid. Ken
nedy knew wha: was going on
there right along. as he claims
to have known. he should
never have permitted the COM
mi,tee to reach the conclusion
it did-that all was right-but should
have aided it and the mayor in get
t ng at the true state of facts, and
that if he had r. allied that the city
was getting the worst Of it aud that
the mayor was incompetent to dis
cover what was being done, he
might have brought the matter up
in q more pointed manner than be
did, and have had the work stopped
before it went so far. Aid. Kennedy
did not push matters with the ener-
Ky that he might have employed, it
is alleged, because he wanted
the credit of the disclosure-and
particularly Just at this time when
he is al avowed candidate for mayor.
Outwittsd the Mayor.
Both the mayor and Aid. Kennedy
had rumors that there was something
rotten in the storm drain about the
same time. and before the work had
advanced to any great extent, and it
was then that The ARGUS first made
mention Of the rumors that we're
afloat. Both Kennedy and the
mayor went or q seeming tour.
Both went to the same source Of in
formation and both received the
same assurances that all was right.
The mayor accepted and believed
them; the alderman did not. The
latter went further and found enough
to satisfy himself that where there
was so puch smoke there was fire.
But he laid low. He called the at
tention Of the council to the advisa-
bilitv of an investigation. but he did
not vouchsafe all that he knew. He
abided his time. When the commit
tee concluded that there was no
cause for the apprehension and it
was SO published in The ARGUS, Aid.
Kennedy saw his opportunity. That
very night he visited both The
ARGUS and Union offices to denounce
the committees conclusions and to
furnish the public with the facts.
