How a Swedish Dairymaid is Trained

A Swedish dairymaid is quite an expert

These Swedish dairymaids are regularly
educated at the public expense for dairy
work, being either boarded out by the
government at dairy stations or main
tanned as free pupils at dairy schools.
The terms of admission required appli-
cants to be s1illful in milking, to remain
Tor two years, and to take the whole
course of instruction. They occupy the
position of servants. but may not be set
to milking or any other work than dairy
ing. In addition to the practical train
ing the girls receive from the manager,
they have special lessons for them by
teachers who are sent around from sta
ton TO station by the board of agricult-
ure. The following is a list of the sub
Jects taught TO the dairymaids during the
first year at a station:
General review of the arrangements of
the dairy and all belonging thereto; keep
ing the dairy and all its appurtenances
clean; the care of the engine and separ-
ator, and taking to pieces and replacing
of the latter; the treatment of milk with
ice; the preparation of salt butter of such
quality that it is suitable for expectation,
and of cheese from SKINNED milk; keep

methods prevailing in the dairy, ETC.

A NOVEL FOUNDATION.
Pyramids of Cement Resting on Bed
rock.

The new 100000 federal building in
Chicago will stand on a series of points
instead of resting on a foundation ex-
tending evenly along the entire wall
line. The weight of the huge structure,
SAYS the Chicago Post, will be so ad-
justed that il will rest on cement col
umns 80 feet apart, these columns go
ing down to bedrock 70 feet below the
surface of the earth. This is the plan
adopted in modern bridge building anc
represents the most advanced progress
in that field of construction. The mode
of eXcavating for the foundation is
very interesting and simplicity itser.
A section of a wrought-iron tube or the
desired diameter is set upon the ground
on its rim, and as the earth within the
circle is removed the tube sinks, When
the top of the section settles down TO
the level of the earth's surface a second
section is placed above 1t and the dig
cling process is continued. One sec
ton after another disappears and bed
rock is eventually reached without the
slightest disturbance to the surround
ing material occurring. There is no
settling of neighboring foundations. no
tottering walls, no alarm or disqulet OF
any sort.
When the excavation is completed
there is a clean iron walled hole, into
w
jected to the necessary pressure. When
the iron tube is filed the job is nm
ished, the iron casing being allowed TO
remain. The columns which Will con-
stitute the foundation for the chicago
building will vary in diameter from II
to Is feet. Through the wear and tear
of ages they will support all the weight
that they will be called upon to-pear-
BY this plan it will not be necessary
to drive piling down to bedrock or TO
resort to any of the methods for max
ing broad bases for foundations to rest
upon, so familiar to Chicago builders
of lofty edifices and heavy business
blocks. The element of uncertainty
will be entirely eliminated. Cement
columns have been tried in the con-
struction of all the great iron and steel
bridges built in recent years and found
to be wholly satisfactory. There is no
guess work, no speculation as TO the
precise weight a cement column of GER
tain dimensions standing on solid rock
will sustain. 1t is simple mathemat-
ical and engineering proposition.
The Chicago foundation will cost less
than $500. 000 Work upon it can be
commenced the minute Contractor
Harris finishes the removal of the old
wreck that now disfigures the site.
The plans for building and foundations
are now practically done, some OF the
details only remaining unfinished at
this time. Mr.. Cobb, the architect, says
that the new Chicago postoffice will be
the most scientifically constructed
building in the United States.

Judge Hiles yesterday delivered an
opinion in the matter of the suits for
foreclosure brought by the Central
Trust company of New York and 9TH
ers against the Utah Central Railway
company.
The opinion, after enumerating the
several suits, says: ut was admitted
by all the parties that decree of fore
closure should be entered; that out
of the proceeds of the sale should be
paid: First, the cost and expenses of
sale; second, 81, 500 as compensation for
attorneys of the trustees, to Trustees
Marshall Teasdel and FAIR; $3.50 per
month 10 P. L. Williams, attorney for
the receivers; the sum of &c. 900 per an
mum to Receiver and Manager James
McGregor and to Clarence Cary for
their services as such receivers, Mr..
McGregor to have $500 per month as
manager and 5000 per month as re-
ceiver.
'Third-The evidence shows that j.
z. BAN berger and H. G.. Mcmillan are
the holders of $24, 444.07 in receivers
certificates, for the payment of which
they are entitled TO have priority over
the mortgages, with interest thereon
at the rate of Z per cent per annum
amounting to $1,630.20, but the claim
of S173.S4 for compound interest is dis
allowed. They are also entitled I'M
der the evidence as $3.50 as attorneys
fees in this suit.
Fourth-After the payment of the
preferential claims the remainder of
the proceeds should be applied to the
payment of the bonds mentioned in
the mortgage and interest thereon.
The matters which are contested are
a Judgment of Joseph Goddard, inter-
venor, against the Utah Central for
$S,65O.35 and a judgment for $3.50 in
favor of the Continental Oil company.
Under the receivership the railway has
received benefit for the goods repre-
scented by this Indebtedness, and of the
income of the road there has been ex-
pended on bettermeltS more than $l2,-
00G besides 3,99S.67 interest on the
receivers certificates. and there is on
more than enough to pay these judg-
ment claims.
The opinion concludes: Ct do not
think under the evidence in this case
that these intervenogs should be held
TO have lost their right because the
claims accrued more than six months
before suit was brought or the receiver
was appointed The labor done and
the materials furnished were of as
much benefit to the mortgaged proper
~ as like labor and supplies given at
any subsequent time, and they were in
no sense stale demands.
Therefore l find that these two
Judgment claims should be paid, if
necessary, out of the proceeds of the
sale in the order hereinbefore fndi-
Gated as in the third class after the /
payment of the receivers certificates I
and attorneys fees"

BACON LOSES.
Judge Hiles Finds For Defendant in
Bacon VS.. Park

Bacon VS.. Park.
Judge Hiles also rendered an opin-
ion in the case of Harvey NJ. Bacon VS..
Hamilton C. Park and others. The suit
was brought to set aside a forfeiture
of a lease for non-payment of rent and
taxes. The lease was made by de-
PENDANT Park to defendants Thompson
Ingersoll and Sinondi for 25 years on
the lot of land on which the Manitou
hotel stands. The plaintiff alleges that
he bought the lease under a strict
foreclosure of a trust deed by the
American National bank of Salt Lake,
in which deed the lease was pledged
as security for money loaned by the
bank TO defendants Thompson, Inger-
soil and SimOndi, and evidenced by
their note to the bank for over $19, 600
The complaint also sets up that there
was collision between Park and
Thompson, Ingersoll and Simondi to
fraudulently defeat the right of plain
tiff in the lease, which he alleges he
acquired by his purchase at the sale
thereof by the bank.
The opinion says the evidence does
not show any collision between de-
PENDANT Park and the other defendants,
and therefore his honor finds the issues
against the plaintiff on that ground.
Taking the testimony of plaintiff
saws the opinion, as being in all re-
SpectS true, i am oil the opinion and so
find that he showed such negligence
and laches as not to entitle him to any
relief against Park. The evidence shows
by uncontradicIed testimony that on
Oct. %, 1895, defendant Park offered to
reinstate the plaintiff in the lease, and
If he required il to give him longer
lease, if plaintiff would pay the back
rent and taxes and insurance and the
plaintiff refused. The evidence shows
that Park was in danger of having his
title to the land defeated by sales of
the premises for the unpaid taxes of
1893 and 1894. and that plaintiff knew
this and refused to assist Park to lift
those burdens.
Equality is equity. Equity aids the
vigilant, not those who sleep upon their
rights.
7 find from the evidence that plain
tiff has not paid or offered TO pay any
of the rent, nor tax, nor insurance
charges provided in the lease TO be paid
by him since the alleged transfer of the
lease to him under the mortgage or
trustee sale, nor has he offered to pay
any part of the arrears of taxes OF
rent or insurance charges which ac-
crUed while Thompson, Ingersoll &, ST. |
moRdi held the lease. and that all these |
charges amount to about $4,000. That !
the plaintiff knew substantially the |
amount of such arrearages existing be-
fore and after the alleged transfer of |
the 1ease, but failed to pay the taxes |
to prevent forfeiture of his title to the |
leased premises.
Il am of the opinion that plaintiff |
should take nothing by this action
