Cows and creamerles.

Farmers should not be alarmed at
tho steady increase of well equipped
Creameries in the West, for this is just
as it should be. There are practi-
cslly no more COWS than there were
three years ago, and il the proouct Of
these COWS is made into creamery
butter instead of farm dairy butter
the net results to the farmers who
take their milk to creameries will GER
tainly be much greater than 1t was
under ths former system. In other
words, the milk from these COWS is
being made into 15-cent butter in
stead Of 10.cent butter. The month
~ creamery check is a wonderful ed
ucator and stlmulstor. In quickly
demonstrates that it pays to milk
good OoVF, thPt it pays to feed in
telllGently and literally, sPd pp the
patron begins to think and read and
plan to so arrange his crops that the
cow will be properly cared for. He
begins to study the feeding problem,
how to breed and rear dairy stock; he
begIps 70 study the merity of the diff
fsrsnt animslG ~ big herd, and I'M
consciously bid begins to inquire intp
the ways and whereforeS, aud so
gradually becomes an educated man
in the science and art Of agriculture
aa4 spimsl husbandry. Surely the
creamery ~akeg for good farming,
good prosperous nsighbOrbo99s end
good citizenship. -KanSas Farmer.

The first floating hospital in the

The action CT the Democratic
Executive committee in ellmlnat-
ing the colored brother as factor
in the democratic primary election
meets our hearty approval. 1t is
no doubt fact that there are a
few true and loyal democrats
among the negroes, and we would
be very glad if they could be al
lowed to vote, but the trouble
arises when it is attempted to draw
the line which would determine
Just who these few colored demo
Gratis may be. If allowed to vote
at all, there would be no end to
the reasons offered why this, that
and the other colored brother
should be allowed the privilege,
there would necessarily be an in
discriminate vote resulting, and
we would just as we'll have no
democratic primary. The action
of the committee is not to be con-
sidcred as hostile toward colored
democrats, but simply as a safe
guard against ineligible votes. Any
colored man who has sense enough
to be a democrat will readily APP
preciate tho good intentions of the
committee, and accept the condi.
tons cheeriully.

quite number of towns and hoped to
visit them all. However, to do that re-
quires more time than we have at orr dis
posal. Consequently, 1t is necessary that
the several commissioners and vice-presi-
dents of the exposition depend upon their
own abilities to collect funds and exhibits.
Assuredly we should all appreciate the
situation at this time and do our individual
part toward making this enterprise a mag
nificent success. Bear i'm mind that the
communities which aid in the erection of
a building will be the ones entitled to con-
sideration. and we know you desire proper
representation.
We now have money enough In sight to
warrant the letting of the contract for the
construction OF the state building, and to
prosecute the work, relying upon the 10y
atty, patriotism to say nothing of the
commercial part OF the enterprise to bring
in sufficient funds to carry out the scheme
as planned by the Executive committee.
1t is necessary that returns be made at
once to our treasurer, Mr.. Geo. G. Hark-
ness, Little Rock, so that all bills may be
met promptly. Please give this matter
your immediate attention, and, il you
have not already done so, confer with
your citizens. secure their contributions
and remit to the treasurer. You. of
course. realize that if the citizens of your
town and county would respond, even in
small way, the burden would not fall
heavily upon any. As citizens of this
great state. interested in its development.
We should put our shoulders to the wheel
and take advantage of this grand opportu-
nifty to attract to our borders men and
money.
This will be the last call made upon
you, and We feel confident that nothing
further can be said which would excite
your earnest cooperation. Let us huve
that, and success is assured.
Hoping to hear from you in favorable
manner in short time, am

Plans for state buildings at the
Trans Mississippi exposition are COM
ing in rapidly. The department OF
Publicity has just received the archi-
t cts drawings of the Minnesota build
ing. the Montana building. the Arkan
sas building, the Denver building. and
the Missouri building. The plans for
the proposed Iowa building meet the
hearty approval of the exposition au-
thorities. The Illinois building is
nearly completed with the exception Ct
the additional wing made necessary
for the accommodation of the fine art
exhibit which Illinois will bring to the
exposition. The Wisconsin building is
one of the most complete state build
ings on the grounds. The Nebraska
building is practically completed. The
plans for the Denver or Colorado
building have been accepted and the
contract will be let in a day or two.
Plans for the Georgia pine palace have
been submitted. 1t will be constructed
wholly of pine donated by the people
OF Georgia. II is handsome struct-
ure. The Minnesota building will be
constructed on similar lines, of I'M
hewn Minnesota logs. The design Of
the architecture is most pleasing.
Plans for the Oregon building are now
being drawn and will be submitted
next week. Members Of state commits
sions of other states send assurances
that plans for their state buildings will
be forthcoming within a short time.
1t is highly probable that the states OF
New York and New Jersey will con-
struct handsome buildings at the
Trans Mississippi exposition.
Thirty-tive states have to date de-
cided to participate in the exposition.
In thirty of these commissions have
been appointed, and reports from
agents in the field are to the effect that
At least five more states will be organ
'zed within the next ten days. The
winter weather having been most fav-
'rable, construction work is far adj.
vanced and is progressing in the Main
court, the Bluff tract and the Midway
with great rapidity. The great Gov
eminent building, 500 feet long and the
pinnacle OF whose dome is nearly 200
feet high, is nearly done. The man.
sgement finds it necessary to build
several annexes TO accommodate the
extraordinary demand for exhibit

could be raised by popular sub
scription, TO carry on the work as
suggested above.

The message of the president
(printed in full on another page
has been generally criticised
throughout the country as very
unsatisfactory. We are not so
bloodthirsty but that we can see
many good points in it, and especi-
ally the latter part seems to cover
the whole ground. The president
declares that the war in Cuba must
stop, and he asks congress for
authority to stop it. He could do
no more, until congress complies
with his request. Immediately
after the message was read the
lower house took positive action,
and the matter is now with the
senate. 1t is feared that body will
delay matters by quibbling, speech
making, amendments, etc, etc.,
but the majority resolution re-
ported to the senate by Senator
Davis Immediately upon the con-
vening of the senate on Tuesday
has an unmistakabIe tone. The
matter rests here, with every indi.
cation that there will be war.
