Dairy and Creamery.


A hustling farmer makes the pro-
found observation that be has discover
ed two men can do as much work as
three on his place when he is one of the
two.
A good mixer will get from half q
pint to pint more milk from COW
than the poor mixer. This is point
dairymen should be particular to watch,
as here loss creeps in. A COW gives more
milk for person whom she is accus-
toned to having about her.
Undoubtedly the quality of butter
made on the farm will be improved by
the use of separator. The cream will
be more uniform in temperature and
can be kept at the same degree of sweet
ness till a churning is ready to be ripen-
ed all at once.
We wish more farmers would try the
virtues of the cowpea. After the pods
have all been picked off and the vines cut
and cured for hay there still remain the
stumps in the ground. If they are
plowed under, they will enrich the soil
as much as clover will.

Problem In Cream.


The question is to ascertain the mon
ey value of cream when the weight,
test and price per pound of butter fat
are given. To those of us whose early
training made us familiar with prob
lens in percentage this is not a difficult
matter, but there are not few men of
more than average general information
who are quite apt to stumble when they
attempt to deal with decimals.
We will work out a couple of prob
lens below to show as best we can the
method of making the computation.
For instance, what will be the value of
408 pounds Of cream which tests 90. z
per cent fat at 90 cents per pound of
butter fat?
When we say that cream tests 20. 2
per cent fat or milk 40 per cent, the
words per cent mean that they are the
given number Of pounds of fat in each
100 pounds of the cream or milk, as the
case may be. Therefore to obtain the
total fat in the whole quantity we null
tiply the amount by the rate per cent
and divide by 100 or remove the deci-
NAL point two places TO the left. Thus
in the case given we

some unusual features. Tom
Hodges, brakeman on the Katy,
was killed some months ago near
Denton. The company would not
settle the case out OF court, taking
the position that Hodges was do
ing the work of another at the time
OF his death, hence the non- -liabil-
ity of the railroad company. Suit
was fled in district court in Sher-

dead brakeman joining the wife.

damages. The jury after bel ng out
three days returned a verdict as
stated above, giving the widow Of
Tom Hodges s3979.25, and leaving
the parents Of the dead man out

that Hodges was married man

Bryan, Statesman and Patriot.

People who heard William j. Bry-
ans voice in Rock Island Yesterday
were more enraptured than ever with
him as a man and as an orator. Mr..
Bryan has been in Rock Island on two
occasions before, but they were both
entirely political, and those who went
to hear him at those times did so
under circumstances either of extreme
bias or extreme prejudice. So that
the proper estimate of the individual
was not as fully gained, perhaps, as it
was yesterday. Bryan came to Rock
Island yesterday without thought of
politics, and he refrained, it is hardly
necessary to say, from intimation
or act making suggestion of partisan
ship. While his fame is so largely
attributed to his convictions in matters
OF party principle, yet Bryan's best
hold upon those who know him is due
to his personality. No one can talk
with him five minutes without being
impressed with him. 1t is the
distinctive Bryan characteristics that
draw men to him and hold them
there. His observation-disclosures, his
frankness. his trueheartedness and
the perfect sunshine of geniality and
cordiality that envelop his entire being.
These are the notable features in
Bryan's disposition that stamp the
man, apart from his magnetic oratory
and his great brain power.
MIR. Bryan was heard in Rock ISL
and yesterday on two subjects, which
inspire the sentiments nearest to the
hearts and souls of the people of the
republic-home and country. With
such thoughts Mr.. Bryan sought not
the force of oratory. The mere ex-
preston of thought of such man on
such topics was eloquence itself. In
the afternoon. he told of the beauties
of brotherly love, of neighborly con-
sideration, and kindness, of fraternal
obligation, of mans duty to himself,
as the Creator had ordained. and of
mans duty to his neighbor. In the
evening at the banquet, the patriot
was shown. Bryan spoke of America.
and it is not necessary to speak of the
result. 1t was calm, impassioned,
impressive discourse of the duty of
the men of the republic today. and
while the republic lasts. 1t was pa
triotic gem. lesson on the obliga-
tions of the nation to herself and to
the world. The sublimely beautiful
thoughts expressed last nj ght by Mr..
Bryan were left for the contemplation
of those within the hearing Of his
voice long after the particular oc-
casion may be lost sight of. Words
they were of a patriot and a states

The Cache In Alaska.

The settlements along the Yukon are
few and far between and consist, for
the most part, of the same elements.
There are the company's store; the huts
and tents of the natives; the crowd of
bowling dogs; salmon hanging in red
strips, FURNISHED with copper tinges in
the sun; little tots of children; chatter
ing women offering baskets, moccasins
and trinkets for sale, and here and there
perhaps squad of uniformed children,
marking the work of some mission
good looking, clean looking children,
but, whether Christianized or not,
spoiled for living like natives again.
The problem is, What is to become of
them? Along the banks are occasionally
met the rude huts and tents of small
parties of Indians come hither to cut
wood for the boats or to fish, but, how
ever simple the habitation, it must al
ways have the cache, or storehouse,
propped upon posts to keep the supplies
out Of reach of the dogs, for these dogs
can bite through tin can and almost
climb creased pole in search of food.
The cache should have a place on the
coat of arms of Alaska. 1t is universal.

An Unbiased Charxe.

A group Of lawyers were telling sto.
ries in the corridors of the city hall the
other day, when one related tale of a
justice of the peace in one of the south
ern states where the narrator lived in
his earlier days. A case was being tried
before a jury in the Justices court,
there being a large number of witnesses
on both sides. The lawyers contended
fiercely and the trial dragged on until
the taking of evidence and the argu-
ments before the jury had been con-
cluded.
"Well, gentlemen, are you through"
asked the justice, addressing himself to
the lawyers.
Upon their reply in the affirmative
he then addressed himself to the Jury,
saying:
Gentlemen, it is now the duty Of
the court to say something to you. You
have heard the evidence of many wit
nesses and have heard what the lawyers
have said. I will say that know all the
witnesses and know them to be such
disreputable persons that it will not be
necessary for you to pay any attention
to what they have said even under oath.
Not one of them is to be believed. As
for the lawyers, they are such scoun-
drels you need pay no attention to what
they have said, and as for the two liti-
giants, they are SO mean it doesn't make
any difference which one of them gets
the worst of your decision. Retire and
deliberate. ''-Washington Post.
