FEMININE DAIRY WISDOM.

BY DOROTHY TUCKER IN FARM JOURNAL.
Don't make the mistake Of thinking
that large cow necessarily makes the
most butter. It is great error.
In the first place it takes much more to
maintain the large cow, and in the second
place she probably will not give any more
or even as much in return as the smaller
animal.
II you have an extra good dairy COW
Won must remember that she is necessari-
" very highly organized.
She may be compared to a machine
running at a high speed and doing great
work. All parts must be closely watched
and everything must be kept in perfect
condition, or the breaking down of the
whole thing will be the result.
So It is with our best cows. They are
not like the old, no-purpOse-c0w, with
little or no nervous system or high de-
velOpment. Great care must be given
them at calving time, which Is . critical
period.

Cut down on ell heavy feed for two or

A. o. u. w. New Plan.

Probably the most important action
taken by the Grand Lodge, A. O. U. w.,
which has just closed in Tacoma its
annual seseion, was the adoption of a
new plan of assessment for the insur-
ance of its members. Hereafter the
amount of the assessment will be gov
erned by the age of the member and
the amount of insurance asked. The
new plan will have u tendency to in
crease the membership Of the order and
reduce the average age.
Under the old law an assessment of
81 was made on each member when
ever the beneficiary fund was reduced
to $1,000. This figure, $1,000, repre-
sented the insurance of one member,
and all contributed equally, regardless
of age or character of risk. Fourteen
such assessments were made last year.
Under the new law either 81 600 or
So, 900 insurance can be taken out and
the assessments are in seven classifica-
tiOns nv 400 "a fullOws.

The Railroad WashOuts.

Late railroad advices show that the
floods which for some time have been
causing great irregularity in the trans
continental routes are nearly over. On
the Great Northern 1900 feet of track
and two or three culverts between
Minot and Havre and the bridge over
Milk river, between Havre and Shelby
Junction, have been repaired since
Friday, and the trains tied up at Havre
have come through the slides on this
division. The road will be in good
running order by Tuesday.
On the Northern Pacific bridge is
washed out near .Missoula, and the
track is partly submerged. Near this
point the track is 80 soft that passen-
gers had to he transferred by wagon a
distance of seventeen miles.
The cause of this condition of affairs
is the heavy snowfall, followed by q
chinook wind, which took the snow all
off in about twenty-four hours. There
is quantity of westbound freight at
this season of the year, and it is all tied
up in the yards east of the washouts.

NEW LIGHT ON SPRAYING.

most of these pests the spores lived

which the fruit laiser is advised TO
snrav before the opening OF the bios

A Fairhaven dispatch to the Seattl
Post Intelligencer. dated April 18th says
The Pacific American Fish Company i
not wasting any time because of the delay
in locating its main eonnery. but prelim
mary work is being pushed. The Su
perintendents and aides in the differen
departments are being chosen, and TIT
perience of the most capable men on the
Sound. Anacortes is furnishing most Of
those chosen.
d. r. Lord, of Anacortes, has been
picked on to exercise q general practical
supervision over the affairs of the COM
pany, and his advice and suggestions will
go a long way toward shaping the trend
OF its business affairs. He Is regarded as
q very capable man.
Peter Bensith, another AnacOrtes man,
has been selected to attend to the web
bling. AS foreman of this department he
will be in position of great repsonsibil-
ity, and one that only an expert in his
line could fill. The extensive operations
of the company call for an unusual am
cunt of good generalship on his part, and
a tremendous amount of looking after de-
tails. He was formerly Columbia river
man, and was q trusted employee of the
Alaska Packers Association before GO
ing to AnacOrtes.
D. N. Mcmillan, of Anacortes will have
charge of the plies and traps. The driv-
ing of the piling on all the trap grounds.
and the responsibility for their correct
position, will be in his domain, as well as
the superintendent of the traps where
hundreds of men will be employed. Mr..
Mcmillan has q first-class reputation
among men of his calling, and was chosen
for that reason. He has been with the
Fidalgo Island Packing Company for
some years, and was previously at Point
Roberts.
r. E. Trafton. of Anacortes. will have
charge of one of the cOmpany's canneries.
He held similar position with the Car
Isle Company, on Lummi island, and
also was with the Franch-A Com
pany, of Fairhaven, in the same capacity.
The company will build twenty large
deck scows and two powerful piledrivers
at once. The work will be done by Kirby,
under contract, and will make miniature
ship yard OH the Fairhaven water front.
Where the large cannery goes, and
whom the company will have here as its
confidential adviser and agent is not yet
known. That the company will send its
own bOOkkeeper is decided, and it is said
another representative. with quasi-au-
thority to act for the head officials, will
be on the ground. In less than a week
all the difficulties regarding the site and
the other smaller barriers to rapid pro-
gress will be decided one way or another.
One of the company is said to be on his
way here now and his arrival may settle
all questions of that kind.
