Speaking Of the proposed tax of 81
year on bicycles. THE Philadelpnia
Ledger says: Nobody clamors for good
roads so loudly and persistently as the
riders Of bicycles, and good roads cost
money. 1t is only fair that the bicycles
should help pay for the improvements they
demand, and 81 year is very light tax
for that purpose, especially since compar-
atively few of the riders are called upon
to pay any other tax. The principle is
the same as the tolls ON turnpike, which,
as a rule, are paid cheerfully in recogni-
ton of the fact that the turnpike COM
pany maintains much better road than
the common highways which run near it
and are free to everybody"

One Of the errors in dairying that
is constantly coming to the front
relates to working butter. Time
and again it has been demonstrated
that the less bntter is worked the
better the butter will be, other
things being equal. Working but
ter can, under proper conditions and
practice, he entirely dispensed with
Though it is doubtless quite as well
to work it enough to get out surplus
water. Yet If the granular system
OF churning il practiced, and ample
time taken to allow the water to
drain ont, no working will be need
ed, or, ut any rate, only enough to
bring the butter into solid condition
While the above has been taught
and retaught for nearly the past
quarter If century, it is by no
means an uncommon event TO pick
up an agricultural paper and have
yonr eye light upon an article in its
dairy department in which some
mention shows hat the writer Of the
article did not know that all the
buttermilk should be washed out Of
the butter while the latter is in the
granular state, and if this is done
there will he none left to be worked
ont. If all the buttermilk has not
| been washed ont, you can set it
down for certain that the attempt
to work it ont will result in break
ing the grain Of the butter.

1t is the poorest kind of economy
to ever stint an animal in its food
but in generous feeding there is the
great danger of waste from feeding
that which the animal DIES not

proportions of different foods, and
the nearer we can come TO know
just what proportion is best the lest
we will feed "a no purpose.
Very rarely, in the Northern
states, is a barn found which will
keep the cattle properly warmed.
Usually the winds whistle through

FILED THE INDICTMENT,
The Case Of Charles S. Bartlett
Is Now Ready for the
Courts.
Bills Found Against Frank Cummings
and ex-District Attorney James
D. Page.

The indictment against Charles s. Bart
lett, the witness in the Fair case who ad-
mitted during the trial that he had testi-
fed falsely, was filed yesterday. The
finding of true bill against Bartlett was
mentioned exclusively in THE CALL on the
day it occurred.
Bartlstt testified on direct examination
that he had seen Senator Fair IN Notary
Cooney's office on the date the forged
deeds were purported TO have been signed,
and later admitted that he had lied and
that he had been promised money to tes-
tify as he had in the first instance. Bail
was fixed at $4,000.
The jury also stopped up loopholes
through which two men now behind the
bars hoped to escape. An indictment was
found against Frank Cummings, who wa
convicted two years ago of having OBJ
tanned money under false pretenses and
was granted a new trial oy the Supreme
Court on a technicality. Ii is expected to
convict Cummings on this indictment
when the case comes up for trial a second
time.
A true bill was found against James D.
Page, the ex- District Attorney, who was
convicted of embeZzlement and whose
case was sent back for n new trial because
it was not proved at the first trial that
any demand had been made on him for
the money he is alleged to have mis-
appropriated.
