SPEEDY TORPEDO BOATS.

Since the celebrated Turbinia has
es, boa, atioat by the English-built Hal
lung, constructed for the Chinese gov
eminent, the Englishmeu are banking
their horcs on the new boat now under
construction OF the Turbinia type
The Chinese boat is credited with
having made run of lSh knots
at an average speed OF over IS
realized during the run was a6.I knots
or l2.26 miles, per hour, The best run
Of the Turbinia for mile is 30 knots, so
that the Hal Lung has substantial
lead
The most remarkable feature OF this
boat, next TO her speed, is the fact that
she is fitted with reciprocating engines.
AT the time the Turbinia made her phe-
nomenal speed il was popularity sup
posed that IL was due to her new form
OF motor. In great part, no doubt, it
was, hut there is reason to believe that
the excellent steam-raising qualities of
her boiler contributcdin no little degree
to the result. Relatively considered.
the performance of the Turbinia was
more meritorious, for the reason that
shc is only t0-ton craft, while the Schi-
chau boat is of $50 tons displacement
or ~, times larger. The new and en-
larged Turbinias will be full-sized tor
pedo boats, and for this reason II is like

Loss from Poor mixers.

4 A good mixer should have strong

milks cows many years. The grip does
not necessarily require very strong
muscles, but it is the constant exercise
twice aeday which gives the muscles Of
the hands and fingers a Developments
that nothing else will do. But if a
] hired man has not already such q de-
svelopment of muscles as will make him
q fast mixer, do not employ him with
the milking of cows as one Of his du-
ties. While he is learning to milk a
steady and fast stream he is drying the
cow off, as after a time she will learn
to hold up her milk. # only little.

will very soon go dry. That will cost
the farmer more than the wages Of a

PLAIN COMMON SENSE
Really NOTHING Else IN Required to
Raise Healthy Calves Under
Ordinary Conditions.

In all my experience never lost but
one young calf while it was sucking its
dam. That was many years ago when
Hungarian grass first putin an appear
ance with US, and the hay fed to the
COW killed the calf, writes contribu-
tor to Homestead. The milk caked in
the calls stomach. My experience has
always been to restrict the feed Of the
COW for two or three weeks before
calying, and if this is properly done 1
think there will, as rule, be no scours
in the. cali. The fatter the COW the
more care is necessary. I have had
cows come in that were fit for the
butchers block, and have allowed the
calves to take all the milk they would,
and this, too. without harm to them.
When the cow is not on grass feed
hay, and not too much, with no grain
whatever for at least a. week before
calying. also give little wheat bran
every other day for the sake Of It's
regulating effect. Let the COW get
little hungry at this time, and it will
not hurt her, while it will benefit the
calf. This way Of feeding with me has
always got the COW and her milk in
such acondition that the calf can have
all it wants of it, and only take away
what is left. Sometimes the calf may
be a Little constipated, and when this
is so feed more bran and all will come
right. With me the question has not
been so much the quantity as the quail
ity of milk that makes the healthy
calf. invariably leave the COW and
calf together for the first week or two.
During the month of May the COW
should be on the grass, but as calying
time draws near she should be in the
stable at night. In June, when the
grass should be at it's best, look out for
milk fever. If you have lot where
the grass is short and not too plenti-
full, that is the best place for her. The
main idea that I would impress is
when the COW is fat and has been
fed high for about three weeks before
calving, the rich feed must be taken
away or scours in the calf will follow.
You may think it an epidemic or call
it what you will, but I am satisfied this
is the cause that kills many calf and
what will kill one will kill more. think
the idea here advanced applies to horses
and hogs as well. AS to the sheep,
know nothing about them.

CLEAN MILKING PAYS.
Interesting Experiments Conducted.
by Prof. d. HI. Otis, Mt the Kan-
sas State Station.

It is a well-known fact that cows not
MIXED mi clean will tend to dry up in short
order. Another important reason for
milking clean is to get all of the butter
fat, which is contained in a much larger
per cent. in the last than in the first
milk drawn, as is shown by the follow
ing experiment. The college dairy has
conducted an experiment. showing the
Importance of clean milking. Five
cows were selected and their milk col
lected in half-pint bottles, each teat
contributing it's share, to every bottle.
These samples were tested with the
Babcock test, with the following re-
suits:
Cow No. 6 varied from 6 Of one per
cent. to- 7.2 per cent. s.
Cow No. 10 varied from 9 Of one per
cent. to &C per cent. j5s3
Cow No. "A varied from 1.6 per cent.
I to 5.8 per cent.
Cow No. IS varied from LIS per cent.
to 6.s per cent.
Cow No. 20 varied from 8 Of one per
cent. TO rs per cent.
The results show gradual, although
not entirely uniform, increase in the
per cent of fat from the beginning to
the last of the milking, except with the
last two samples drawn from each COW.
Here the per cent.of fat would take q
sudden leap, amounting often to third
or half Of the total variation. This
shows very clearly how important it is.
to get all the milk. BY averaging the
resultseit was found that the last quar-
ter of pint was worth from three
fourths to 4 " " pints Of milk first drawn
from the udder. Moral: !. Milk clean
and get fat.D. 81. Otis, Kansas Expert

be attended by ceremonies appropriate
to his rank and social position, and in
order that he might not be disappoint-

his days were mum bered, he determined
to have his funeral in advance and
make the arrangements himself. There
