Value of Dairy Tests.


No one can doubt, says the Mark
Lane Express, that there are affiuent
milk yielding cows, which are no; re-
munerative butter making cows, AMI
that every dairy farmer should ascer-
tain whether the individual animals in
his herd are adapted for the purposes
to which his milk is applied; very few
do this, and great losses are occasioned
in consequence. The fact has been
shown over and over again that unless
separate Weddings of each COW be
weighed after milking, periodically,
the owner would be ignorant of the
animals performances. or whether her
yield is up to the standard requisite to
give profit or not. Keeping each cows
milk separate for butter making would
be tiresome. As there are chemical
tests and instruments for ascertaining
the composition of milk, it is far easier
to resort to them than to adopt The
ether alternative. In the generality of
cases, however. nothing of the kind is
even attempted, and the dairy farmer
remains totally unaware of what ought
to be his greatest concern-the indiyid-
ual capabilities of each COW he owns to
do what he expect from her. Hence
the utility of butter tests and milking
trials to show how very varied are the
weddings Of cows, both in milk and but
ter. and how much better certain vari-
ties are for butter making thaa others.
Our Horses in England. American
and Canadian horses are a regular
feature in the auction sales in England
and Scotland. Prices range from si25
to 500 for our common small horses.
and an occasional high-class horse
runs up to double that price, and the
strangest part Of 1t Is that It is the
best they want, and would readily nav
the good prices for high-class horses II
We only had them. They only take the
cheap horses because they are 50 cheap.

tinue all winter while prices are high.
April is an excellent month in which
the chick should break the shell. If you
have an incubator there is no trouble
in Matching chicks early. Otherwise
you must coax the hens to lay early, in
which case they will lay early and soon
become broody. Do not place more than
ten eggs under hen if the weather is
still quite cold.-W. P. Perkins in

the animals should be given stable pro-

1t is also important that the stable
should not be too warm in winter. A
temperature of 40 degrees is a very
satisfactory one. When it is as high as
gu degrees in the barn, stock turned

MARYLAND CASE.
Some Cloth Sold and Suits That Fol-



=, The Maryland court Of appeals handed
down an important decision last week gov
erning number of cases that have recent
ly arisen in that state. About two years
ago several men went through the country
selling cloth goods. which they represented
to be prize exhibits from the worlds fsir.
ordered by an act Of Congress, passed
through the fundamentally of Senator
German. to be sold to the people of Mary
land. AS a matter of fact the goods were Of
very inferior quality, but a number of un-
suspecting farmers were easily gulled into
buying large lots of the cloth. Those who
were without cash money gave their notes
upon being assured that they would re-
main IN the hands of the cloth men, who
would personally present them for payment
when due. The sharpers however, i'm
mediately Endorsed the securities and
passed them to a New York firm, supposed
TO be innocent purchasers, for value snd
without notice. Finding that the goods
were almost worthless, the victims would,
OF course. refuse payment of the notes
when they became due, whereupon the New
YORK firm would Immediately enter suit
and IN due time obtain judgment
The case of one Charles Scauberlish liv-
ing near Bladensburg, gave rise to the de-
cisfon referred to. He was sued in the cir
cult court for Prince Georges county, his
defense being fraud and the fact that only
one member of the New York firm had tes-
titled at the trial that the notes were re-
cefved by the firm for value before ,na.,iri-
ty, and without notice, whereas the facts
in the case all went to show that the ven
doris of the goods and the holders Of the
notes were in collision. The court dis
missed the case, whereupon II was taken
to the court of appeals and ably argued by
the attorneys of each side. Chief Judge
McSherry, in delivering the opinion Of the
court, affirmed the decision of the lower
tribunal and declared that, though one
member of a firm can testify as to his own
ignorance of fraud or COLLISION, he cannot
testify as to the firms Ignorance Of such
defenseS. Messrs. James c. Rogers and F.
Snowden Hill were attorneys for the APP

The Thanksgiving Payday.
the Editor Of The Evening Star:

It Is rumQred that the clerks of the In
terror Department will get no pay before
Thanksgiving this year. because the day
comes too far before the end of the month
to pay the full months due, and the dis
bursting department does not want to make
an extra pay day in the month.
1t Is pity this Is the case and 1t will
result IN a very meager purchase of ma
terial for Thanksgiving dinners. Some of
the departments pay every week, and it
would do no HARM perhaps If the Interior
Department could do likewise. A CLERK.
