A SUFFERING PRISONER.
His captor was q Policeman wh.
Had to DO Something TO
Hold His Job.

A certain policeman who patrols beat
near Calumet avenue and Twenty-third
street had not made an arrest in three
years. 1t is a quiet neighborhood, and really
nothing Of riotous kind happens there.
Mike" said the captain one morning
last week.. you've got to get to work. If you
don't make some arrests pretty soon Ill
turn you off the force"
Mike left the station desperate and fully
determined on arresting the first man he
met: He overlook q very mild and unas.
Stunning gentleman who was walking from
the Illinois Central train. Mike placed him
under arrest. The man, it turned out, slut.
tered dreadfully and was not able to make
much protest. Mike really knows SO little
about the law that he imagined he was with
in his rights in running anybody in. The
next morning the pedestrian was brought
up at the station.
Whats your name?" roared Justice
White. who had an attack of dyspepsia that
morning.
".st.s.s.t," sputtered the frightened little
defendant.
What's your name?" demanded the JUS
tice, still more severely; don't you trifle
"S-s.st.t.t," suffered the helpless man
again.

The Secret of Success.

No permanent rule can be laid down
by which to feed dairy cattle. No one
feed, no one way of feeding. or no one
amount of feed will suit all conditions
or all animals. The true secret of sue
cess in the business lies in the ability
and ingenuity of the dairyman n himself.
He must be capable OF deciding what
feeds he can use and how he can Use
them to produce the greatest possible
amount of his particular product
milk. etc.-of best quality and with
least expense. Unless he is in the busi-
ness for fun. his profits will be his sue
cess. ard so he must work for that end.

What the Calves Want.

II calf has ration of half oats and
half corn and half feed of it or lit
tie more-that is. little more than
half of what it would eat up clean if it
had chance-and if the place of the
grass is taken by good clover hay. with
shelter from storms and protection
from excessive cold. with plenty of salt
and pure water. the calf will pay for it
all. even IL corn were 40 cents bushel
We would not feed an all-corn ration.
because the calf requires muscle-form-
ing material. a nd GA is and bran are the
ched sst foods of this kind. We would
not feed all oats or bran. especially in
severe weather. because corn is needed
to keep up the heat and round out the

HELPFUL DAIRY NOTES.

We aim to have the butter entirely
free of buttermilk.
We allow no tobacco used in the barn
or in the creamery.
A COW that wants more than 30 or 60
days rest we do not want.
The cows are MIXED at the same hour
each day, in the same order and by the
same person.
We have found that careless feeder
can use great deal of feed from which
we get no returns.
No material change occurs in the COM
position of the corn-cobs during the
several stages of ripening.
We know of no business where the
careful attention to details counts for
as much as in the dairy business.
We know of nothing on the farm that
will give as steady an income as the
making and selling of good butter.
II we fail on batch of butter our reg
ular customers never see it; it is put
in tub and sent where it is unknown.
We should never forget to look after
the comfort of the cow and are care
ful that every storm finds her in the
stall.
Running the churn just one minute
too long will often do for butter what
the most expert butter makers cannot
undo.
After the stover has reached the best
condition for cutting there is rapid
decline in both yield and feeding value.

DRUGGED ROSES.
How Traveller. ON . German Railway
Train Were Robbed by a
Clever Scheme.

1t may be all right for heroines to
make their adorers TREMENDOUSLY happy
by presenting them with roses. The
novelists and dramatists must not be
robbed of all their stock in trade. But
it behooves the nineteenth century man
to be particular about the roses he ac-
cepts, or rather about the girl who gives
them. A short time ago man and his
two sisters were alone in a compart-
ment on German railway. At sta
tion an elegantly dressed, thickly veiled
woman entered the carriage, carrying a
superb boquet of roses. When the
train started, she asked her fellow
travellers if they would object to Fer
closing the window. The man fastened
to close it for her, and, in moving to
get out of his way, the stranger dropped
her roses. He picked them up for her;
and, thanking him charmingly, she
asked him to keep one. Then, turning
to his companions, she graciously Of
fered each of them few of the flow
ers. Naturally the courtesy was ac-
cepted; and the next thing of which
the travellers were conscious was that
the train had arrived in Berlin, that
their veiled companion had disappeared,
and that all of their money and valu-
ables had gone with her. OF course. the
roses had been drugged.
The police have discovered that the
criminal is young man, and that he
has conducted number of daring rob-
berries in similar fashion. One must
admit that it is the refinement of rob-
berry, and, if one must be robbed at all,
the rose method is preferable to sand
bagging or garroting. If any citizen
should meet young women who would
insist upon showering roses upon them,
they would doubtless welcome the
change from cruder forms of hold-up.
But, after all, one may as well fight
shy of yeiled women with roses.-N. Y.
