ing It's size and quality. Ii may be
done by buying or breeding, aud these
two methods may be combined. The
purchasing plan is practiced to con-
siderable extent by those who produce
milk for town and city supply. In
few cases 1t has been known to be sue.
cessful where the work Of the herd was
to make butter. Applied in its ex-
treme form, cows are bought when
mature and at their prime, judged
almost exclusively by their milk yield,
are highly fed so as to keep steadily
gaining in flesh, and are sold, usually
to the butcher, as soon ss they cease to
be profitable as mixers. The bull may
be of any kind so long as he gets the
COWS in calf, and the calves are valued
only as causing "fresh" COWS, and are
dispensed with as soon as possible.
The first modification of this system is
to keep extra good cows for several
seasons and the next to raise heifers
from some of the best mixers to re-
plenish the herd. This way Of making
up herd and keeping good It's num-
bers requires abundant capital and
rare judgment in buying and In sell
ing. 1t cannot be recommended to
one lacking experience, and even the
shEewdest buyer runs great risk Of
bringing disease into his herd.
The other extreme ls to begin with
few well. selected animals as founds'
tion, and gradually build up the herd to
the size desired by iudiCious breeding
and natural increase. This method takes
time, and time which may be money
but 1t is by far the safer and more sat
lsFactory in It's results, and it must be
recognized as a higher grade Of dairy
farming.
A desirable combination, In starting
is to buy the number Of cows desired
and good animals Of the sort deter
mined In advance. If ones meant
will permit, include a few superior
COWS, and first class bull at any rate
Let the COWS selected be such as have
had two calves, and perhaps three, sc
that they may be judged by their Owr
develop ment and yet be young enough
to improve and be in full profit fol
some years. With q herd thus formed
begin at once the work Of improve
ment by breeding and selection, Sell
promptly any cow which proves un
satisfactory and replace her by the
best In crease of the herd, or purchase
occasionally an animal which will raise
the average quality.

treating this subject, offers many most
useful suggestions which we shall re-
print for the benefit of our readers
from week to week. The bulletin was
prepared by Henry E, Alvord, Chief of
the Dairy Division:
The pursuit of dairy farming de-
pends for It's success upon certain fun
damentsl conditions. First, the owner
of the business himself, or otherwise
the agent or manager who has the
immediate control and personal diCec'
tion of the work, must have a natural
fondness for animals, prompting to
generous and kind treatment, as we'll
as good Judgment in selection, breed
Ing and care. 1t Is not sufficient that
he should be a hOrseman, or fond of
cattle in general; for best results he
should have a special liking for the
dairy cow, over and above all other
animals. Second, the cattle must be
good Of their kind and Of variety
suited to the work. They must be
truly dairy cattle; but of this more
presently, Third, the farm should be
specially adapted to the branch OF bus
bandry in view A good dairy farm is
pretty certain to be good for general
farming, but many good farms in gem
eral are not suited to dsirying, The
dairy farm should be carefully Sc.
lected, sll the requirements Of the
business being we'll considered. Yet
many disadvantages so far as the farm
is concerned may be successfully over
come by the skillful dairymRn, and
dairying in some forms Is prodtsbly
conducted without any farm, so that
this condition, important as 1t is, can
not be regarded as essential. Fourth,
1t is we'll to study the character of the
accessible markets and the means Of
communication; location and the line
of dairying to be followed may be
largely controlled by the markets. In
some cases the markets form Rn essen.
tial condition, but modern facilities
for transportation make the location
of the dairy farm with relation to its
markets comparatively unimpOrtant.
The first and second above remain as
the essential faCtoTs-the owner and
the cow. Assuming that the dsiryman
is all he should be, IL Is proposed
to consider in the following pages the
dairyman's 8 main stock in trade, upon
which depends bis success-the dairy
herd, its formation and management.
Like almost all other occupations at
the present day, dairying has become
divided into several distinct and spe.
cial lines. These differ mainly as to
the form of product and the manner
of disposing of it. Milk or cream may
be produced for delivery to consumers,
and this delivery may be direct or indi-
rect. The same products may be de-.
liVered to a factory for manufacture
into butter or cheese, or the milk prod
uct of the herd may be worked up at
home and there converted into butter
or cheese. The prudent dslrymsn
should first consider which line of busi-
ness he will pursue. In so doing he
must have regard for all his circum-
stsnces-the location, markets, farm,
buildings, water and Ice supply, the

one Of the beef breeds or grades or
such stock. An animal is thus secured
which has a large frame, is easily kept
In good flesh, and fattens soon when
not milking heavily; such an one also
has large calves, profitable for veal or
growing as steers. Even If such anil
mails are not so productive while in the
dairy, their Matchmaking proclivities
may make up for 1t. There are two or
three Of the established breeds of cat
tie which claim to possess combined
qualities for meat and milk. On the
other hand, many dairymen Qncluding
the writer) prefer cattle Of the distinct
class or type especially adapted to
dairy purposes alone. This class
includes various families and breeds,
all having the marked characteristics
which distinguish the milk producer.
Owners of such cows expect them to
be so profitable as mixers that their
beef producing quality and the final
disposition of their csrCssses may be
entirely ignored; and the calves, ex-
cept 80 far as wanted to raise for the
dairy, are given little consideration.
Which of these lines Of policy should
be pursued every dsiryman must de-
termIne for himself, TO succeed in
his business he should select his herd
or its foun dation with a view to profit.
Whether he should buy, breed and feed
his cows, having in view only their
dairy products and capacity for repro
duction, or whether he will find 1t more
profitable to include the items of beef
and veal, must be largely determined
by home conditions.
SPECIAL ADAPTATION.
Within the general class Of dairy
cattle one can find great variety and
can therefore select breeds or families
we'll adapted to the special needs in
view. Some dairy cattle are noted FOL
the quantity of milk they produce
Others for the high quality or richness
of their milk, which means butter
producers. Some combine quantity
and quality in a specially economical
way, under some circumstances. There
are COWS of active habits, which forage
we'll on a wide range of scanty pas
ture and will proiitsbly work up the
cOarser kinds of food in winter. There
are others which have proved their ca
pscity for making good returns when
m ore closely confined and subjected to
high feeding, Some cows give great
flow Of milk for comparatively short
season, and others are noted for an
even, steady yield of milk the year
through. The dairymsn can easily
find cattle, therefore, adapted to his
particular wants. AS rule, the diff
feTent dairy characteristics named per.
tain to different breeds, so that every
dairymsn is likely to find some one
breed of dairy cattle better suited to
his wants than any other.
This is not the place TO revive the
never.ended "bsttle of the breeds
No matter how strong ones convlc
tions, discretion must be exercised
Pronounced opinions and direct advice
as to the several recognized dairy
breeds are here unnecessary. Evidence
abounds on every side, and every

disquieting symptoms in the Balkans.
The relations between Bulgaria and the
Porte are strained. The Sultan is pre-
pairing for all eventualities and 100000
Turkish soldiers are cheloned on the
Bulgarian frontier armed with Mausera
rifles and amply provided with horses and
guns. Servia, of course, would be i'm

ton with Macedonia, while recent ac-
counts from Albania reports signs of
growing unrest. On the whole the out

OLD SKATING RINK BURNED.
Hot Early Morning Fire In Biddeford
Sunday.
ESPECIAL TO THE pREss1

Biddeford, November 14.-Biddsford,s 9
fremen were called out of their beds .arly
THIS morning to tight a stubborn blaze
that at Its worst threatened destruction
to large amount of property in one of
the most thickly settled residentio1
sections of the city.
Inc old skating rink building. aft the
junction Of Birch, Summer and Hiu
streets, was completely destroyed ,and only
by the hardest kind of work, aided bv the
snow remaining on the roofs from Fri
days storm, were the neighboring dwell
ings saved. The rink was built in 1888
and was used for its original purpose till
the roller skating craze subsided. Since
then it has served numerous uses, and
at the time of the fire was occupied by a
grocery store and as repository for car
riages, sleighs and other vehicles.
The fire started In Mott e. Staples 8
grocery store, and was discovered at 12 40
that no opportunity was left for getting
out anything from any of the apartmen ts
of the building. A strong wind was blow
ing the burning embers on to the roofs
of nelghboirng buildings and the firemen
were obliged to devote much of their
effort away from the burning rink.
The building was owned by Col. L. H.
Kendall of the First Regiment, M. N. G.,
and was valued at $30O0 He carried but
$500 insurance on it. Mr.. Staples's stock
OF groceries and grain was insured for

facturer on Washington street, had about
$500 worth Of carriages and sleighs stored
there, on which ne had an insurance Of
$500. Edward Cobuln also had some
wood and carts in the building and they
were not insured.
The origin of the fire is not known, but
the blaze is supposed to have started from
the stove in the grocery store.

sentenced To death for the six members
of the Picer family last February, and

taken from the county Jail in Emmons
county last night and lynched by mob.
The lyncning had been apparently coolly
planned and was carried oub without o
break in the programme.
Williamsport where the hanging took
place, is about 10 miles from this city
and off the railroad. The news of the
hanging was brought here this afternoon
by mounted messenger. The sheriff of
the hanging occurred. The men had been
under the custody of deputy sheriffs and

bout o'clock in the morning there
was a rap at the outer door of the jail,
and Kelley turned the key in the 10 ok !,
thinking that the persons he had expected
to meet had arrived. No sooner had he
into the corridors. All of them were
masked and tine leaders carried ropes.
The leaders presented a revolver at the
head of Kelley and told him they wanted
the prisoners and demanded that he open
the cells in which they were confined.
X elley seeing resistance was useless, un-
locked the cells. Two of the prisoners
were confined together and the other was
in q separate cell. Ireland and Holy track
we're dragged trembling from their beds,
ropes were fastened about their necks
and they were dragged out on the ground,
after being told to prepare for death. The
men were then led to a huge windlass
and strung up across beam. Coudot
was the first man hanged. 1t is reported
that he was asked before he was hanged
if Black Hawk and Defender had also
been concerned in the murders. He an
swered that they had been. The rope was
then thrown over the beam and he was
SUSPENDED in the air. Holytrack and
Ireland were SO nearly unconscious from
the effects of the dragging that they did
not realize what was about to happen
They were unable to stand and were
slowly raised from the ground until their
bodies swung in the air and dangled
from the windlass with that of Coudot.
The mob then dispersed, mounted their
horses and rode away.

"The Republican defeat in New York

The elections throughout the country

lost no part of the strong hold upon the
people Of which the victory Of 1886 gave
magnificent evidence. The Republican
organization in New York and in the
city of New York no less than in the
country districts is still powerful, earnest
