The Creamery journal is bent on max.
ing dairy farmers buy sepaSators. i;
says:
1t costs 81. so per tub to haul tho but
ter in the milk from the farm to the
creamery.
We know of but two creameries in
DIVA that run routes where it costs less.
The average will be considerably
more, probably not less than 81 70 to
So tub. The average haul will not
exceed six miles.
Here is the great loss under the pres.
ent creamery system. This is the great
handicap in the strife for cheaper pro-
duction.
The simple statement that it costs
twice as much to haul tub Of butter
in the milk from the farm to the cream
cry as it does to pay the freight from
any Iowa point to New York city seems
almost absurd. Yet it is the simple
truth.
We're the comm ission on butter at Is
cents per pound, three times the present
charge Of 8 per cent, it would not be as
great an item as is the cost Of hauling
the butter in the milk from the farm to
the creamery.
When it Is understood that it costs
more to bring the butter in the milk
from the farm to the factory than it
costs at the present freight rate and
price of butter to ship it from any Iowa
point to New York, to pay the commits
sion on it and then ship it to Liverpool,
the disproportion of the charges becomes
apparent.
We prophesy that in few years the
dairymen will look back on the times
when they hauled loads of milk to the
creamery and back, and paid the big
money it costs for doing it, as most
ridiculous.
The endless discussion in dairy pa
pers of the cost Of transportation, cost
Of selling goods on commission, wages
of butter makers and cost of insurance is
in the aggregate trivial in the face of
the fact that in many Of the creameries
In Iowa the cost of hauling the milk at
this time is over $500 week.

SACRAMENTO, Oct. 5.-Dr. Blemer,
United States inspector of cattle, visited the

DEWEY's REWARD
The Manila Hero to Be Made Vice
Admiral

Admiral
NEW YORK, Oct. 5.-A special to the
Herald from Washington says:
President Mckinley and Secretary of the
Navy Long have determined to recommend
to Congress the revival of the grade Of
Vice-Admiral to be filled by the promo
ton of Rear Admiral Dewey.
President Mckinley in his annual mes
sage, and the Secretary in his annual re-
port, intend to devote considerable space to
the achievements of the Asiatic squadron
under the command of Rear Admiral Dew
ey and the splendid judgment and diplo-
matte tact that officer has displayed in
handling the many difficult questions which
arose before the arrival of the American
troops and the capture of Manila.
AS under the existing law, Rear Admiral
Dewey will reach the retiring age in De-
cember, 1899, there is strong probability that
Secretary Long will also urge that Con-
of that officer upon the active list for an
additional ten years. A law permitting such
action in the case of officers receiving the
thanks Of Congress for gallant conduct in
the civil war is now on the statute books,
but the authorities would be glad to see
the law changed so that officers of the
recent and subsequent wars may be SINH
larly rewarded. There is little doubt that
Congress will willingly adopt the recon-
mendation regarding Dewey's advance
ment.

SHORT FRUIT CROP
Increases German Demand for Fruit
From America

4A0AA xAACIlCd
NEW YORK, Oct 5.-A special to the
Tribune from Washington says:
This is good year to send American
fruits, especially apples, to Germany. Eu-
ropes fruit crop is anything but good, ac-
cording to Consul Monaghan of Chemnitz.
In a report to the State Department he
says:
"If our merchants will not repeat the
folly of former years by sending poor fruit
that decays easily, they can command the
markets for years against all efforts to
dslodge them. If Baldwins, Greetings,
Russets and other hardy winter apples are
sent the result will not remain doubtful.
Other apples will not pay for transporta-
ton. Had our apple merchants made even
in 1896, they would now be beset with or
ders. So serious is the situation here be-
cause of the dullness in grain markets,
and so decided is the downward tendency
Of profits in the empires wheat production,
that farmers are turning to fruit to eke
out an existence.
The general union Of agricultural socie-
ties has set itself the task to bring about
better methods of handling fruits. Ger
many is as rule going in for quantity
rather than quality, letting their fruit
trees run to wood rather than to fruit If
American fruits are properly selected,
carefully packed and rapidly transported
there Is no reason why large and perma-
nent markets may not be opened all over

New York.
The hall quickly filled. and 30 great was

the other speakers had to have tho AID OF
the police in forcing their way into the
hall. Four overflow meetings were held.
Gen. Stewart Woodford presided, and his
five-minute speech was interrupted by wlio
cheers when Roosevelts ana MCCARTNEY
names were mentioned.
Col Roosevelt was received with tre-
mendous outburst of cheering. His speech
was devoted almost wholly to national az
fairs. He asserted that the time had come
when the nation must assume a new posi-
ton among the nations of the world. AS
against a policy of isolation, he pointed 10
the fate of China. The American repup-
lie has mighty mission, he said' ana
added:
I'VE must dare to be great, and we must
realize that greatness is the fruit or toll
and sacrifice and high courage.

seas of the West Indies and the remote

to support the administration of President
Mckinley, If for no other reason than be-
cause, say what you like. the victory at the
polls Of the men who are opposing and de-
nouncing his administration in this cleo
ton will be interpreted abroad as mean
ing on the part of America a repudiation Of
the war from which we have just emerged
triumphantly."
Col. Roosevelt dwelt upon the necessity
of maintaining a strong army and navy,
and In conclusion referred to the money
question by declaring that no step should
be taken which might seem to "again open
the question so happily settled at the last
election"

All OF the officials who participated In the

ted that the consultation was held to discuss

the Philippines.
It was ascertained that the program
which the commission is following requires
the disposition of the United States affect
ing the archipelago before any other Ques-
tions are considered. The President has
been informed of General Merritt's view in
favor Of the retention of all the islands. but
the fresh Instructions do not affect the de-
mand for the island of Luzon and rever-
eionary rights over the remainder Of the
group. They relate more to matter OF
detail and are intended to equip the Amer
lean commissioners with material to an
swer the Spanish commissioners in case
they should raise the point in reply to the
formal demand presented by Mr. Day.
This reply is expected on Friday and the
adjournment of the commission for such
short time is regarded by Mr.. Day and the
administration as indicating that the COM
missions work will soon be complete. 1t is
recognized that the Philippines will be the
bone of contention and that once they are
cut of the way it will be pretty plain sail-
ing in the matter of arranging for the ces-
sion Of Guam, Cuba, Porto P!co and the
remaining Spanish West Indies to the Unit

to interrupt the commissions work any tine

unwilling to agree to the demands Of this

delay the commissions work, and a de-
