CAPT. PHILIPS OWN STORY.
in His Heart for
Poor Spanish Marksmanship,

Congressman Charles B. Lands tells
a new story of why Captain Philip
called his crew on deck after the bat
tie of Santiago and offered thanks for
their safety.
Mr.. Lands said he had registered at
the hotel at Old Point Comfort, and
saw battleship at anchor. He asked
the clerk what the ship was, and was
told it was the Texas. Mr.. Lands was
a great admirer of Captain Philip, and
particularly admired his calling his
crew together after the fight at San
tiago and offering thanks to the AL
mighty. He asked if Captain Philip
was in command and the clerk pointed
out that officer, at that time sitting
reading paper. Mr.. Lands intro
duced himself and had a long talk with
him, and they fought the battle of
Santiago over from beginning to the
end. All the time Mr.. Lands was con-
sumed with the curiosity to know
whether or not the story of offering
thanks was true, but he hesitated to
ask about it. He finally plucked up
courage and asked the Captain.
Captain Philip was visiably embar
rassed, he said, and hesitated before
answering, and then he said:
well, Mr.. Lands, it was this way:
THAT is-it was-well, if you drop
your hat on the street and some one
picks it up for you. you say, Thank
you,' or If you fall down on the street
and some one helps you up, you always
say Thanks There was that boat,
with q storm of iron and shot going
on one side and then on the other
Then they would fall in the water all
around u.s., and then there would be
a perfect cloud of them pass over our
heads, and yet we We're not struck.
When the fight was over, and I had
made hasty inventory and found
that we were not hurt, it seemed to
me no more than fair that we should
say Thank you,' SO 1 had the crew
called on deck and told them So Every
man took off his cap, and you could
have heard pin drop on that deck,
and after it was over and I walked
passed that crew, saw tears on the
faces of many an old sailor that
supposed did not know how to cry

Increasing Dairy Profits.

The average price for the average
COW, barring fluctuations in the market,
seldom, if ever. exceeds $50. and often
is as low as 1926, and even less We
will say that from $50 to $40 will usu
ally purchase the average COW, from the
products of which our dairy statistics
are taken.
This, then. makes u dairy of fifteen
COWS worth from $3.50 to 5000, and we
would say that at forced sale it would
be hard to realize the first figure.
Under present improved conditions
these cows ought to produce 200 pound
Of butter, yearly, or its equivalent,
worth at twenty cents a pound $40
yearly per head Will this allow any
margin or proftH No. not if the work
is all hired, but yes, il the dairyman
and his wife will utilize their own labor,
with possibly the addition of little
help.
We will say that it costs $25 per
head to keep these cows the year around,
aud this in IA region where they must
be kept up aud fed six months annu-
ally, and large part of the farm in
the shape of pasture and meadow de-
voted to their maintenance is a conserv
alive estimate.
The $l5 per head extra accruing is
no more than fair pay for making the
butter or carrying the milk away once
or twice daily to the mandatory In
fact. it must be made to cover all labor
involved in the care, manufacture and
sale of milk from one COW for 1865 days
Primarily, a profit in any business
arises from the fact that we turn our
own labor involved in conducting the
business into money
A COW yielding gross income to her
owner of $40 per annum may thus be
accounted profitable. but IL she yields
$50 or $50 in the same length Of time
she is more profitable. Thus. man

improvements upon his farm Dairy.
men who know by general results that
they are either standing stationary or
running behind should at once make an
effort to find out exactly where they
"are at"
BY this, mean. figure out as near
as you can what it is costing you per
head annually to keep the cows. and
balance this against the total recei pts
for one year This will give you a start

the possibilities of increased profits, -

Grating for Variety.

We have for long time believed and
advocated the idea that the character of
a fruit could be changed by the stock
into which it was grated, and that some
varieties we're more easily affected in
this way than others. We find in the
National Stockman a letter from Penn
sylvania farmer who notices the same
facts of variations in the quality of
fruits nominally the same, but who
ascribes it TO different causes, although
we think his argument supports our
view more than his own. He says
1.-The truth of the matter is there diff
ference in the appearance of fruits of
the same variety, even when the gratis
are taken from the same tree. 1t is not
a different strain, but a difference in
environments, elevetion, soil, etc. Then
the age Of the tree, its cultivation, ETC.,
have much to do withlthe fruit Ap-
pies on young, thrifty trees are always
larger in size. coarser in grain and not
as good keepers as when grown on older
and slower growing trees. Some varie-
ties of apples are more subject to change
in appearance and quality, on different
soils, than others. The old Rambo
varies the most of any variety of which
| have any knowledge. In an orchard
planted by my grandfather seventy-fve
or more years ago there we're fifty or
more Rambo apple trees, and there
seemed to be several separate and dis
unc5 varieties, ranging in color from
green with but very few pale-red stripes,
10 deep red with but few green str pes,
md 10 size from very small to the size
Of large Baldwin or medium-sized
Fallawater. And in texture some were
almost as fine as Seckel pear, while
others we're as coarse in the grain as
pumpkin. One tree which in the door
yard bore medium-sized fruit, light in
color. 6ne grained, and pronounced by
all to be the best Rambo they ever
tasted. but when gratis taken from this
tree we're put on other Rambo trees
they invariably produced fruit just like
the tree on which they were inserted,
and not like the tree from which they
we're taken. ] have seen Bdldwins of
all sizes and of almost all shades of
color, and yet there is but one Baldwin
apple
In an orchard of fifty trees we should
not expect to find a great difference in
environments, elevation or soils, but
there might easily be stocks varying
much in character. especially if they
were, as many used seventy-6ve years
ago, and as some use now, seedlings
grown from the apple pomice at the old
cider mill, which naturally would, then,
at least, contain seeds from seedlings as
well as some grated trees. The color,
texture and keeping qualities of the fruit
would vary according to those qualities
in the stock the gratis were set in --
