! iron and steel industry. The United
States most certainly can dictate
terms to the whole world when it
comes to iron and steel or their pro-
ducts. The advance made in that
( branch of industry has been so STU
! pendOus that it has not seemed posi-
! bic that the pace could be kept up.
J Signs are not wanting. however. to
show that the good times in the iron
and steel industry, like the good times
/ in all other industries, have only just
| begun. The Franklin Iron Manu-
| featuring company. which has had its
works closed since 1892, has just
started them up again, and Mr.. c. H.
Smyth Of that company is quoted as
saying:
Our works were shut down in 1852.
and | can frankly say that | never eX-
pected TO see the furnaces lighted
again. But the good times came upon
the country: they struck the iron and
steel trade industries, and such an
impetus was given that works chat
have been idle for years are now
either in full blast OF are being put
into working order. The OutlcGk for
iron was never more hopeful. :
| have talked with great number OF
iron and steel men and they all tell me
the same story-large orders sufficient
to carry them we'll on into next year,
and at good prices. The demand has
never been so great, and in many cases
! it will be simply impossible to ill
orders on time.

THEY DON'T TALK POLITICS.

Who talks politics these days? Go
into group of men of either party, or
of both parties and start discussion
on any side of any political question
and see the crowd scatter. No one
cares for silver. No one gives a
tinker's dam for gold. No one talks
advalorem. No one knows what 4l2
grains fine means. No one is inter-
ested in the endless chain of the trea-
sury. From the bright lexicon of
Kansas the words per capita has been
expunged. Why is this? Simply
because people have no grudge against
the times and are not trying to explain
them. When man has good wife
he never tries to account for her good
ness. It's only mean times and mean
women that get talked abOut.-Empo-
ria Kan. Gazette.

NJ STATE TAX LEVY.

During Gov. Schotield's visit here
last week he gave us a piece of news
which will be nailed with delight by
the tax payers of Wisconsin. He said
that for the first time in the history
of the commonwealth of Wisconsin the
state was free from debt, and that
there was money enough in the trea-
Sury to pay the running expenses Of
the state for the next two years. This
means that there will not be a state
tax levied this year for general pur-
poses This result is due to the care
full administration of Gov. SchOtield
and in his making big corporations
pay their taxes. -MauStOn Star.
1t may be remembered that demo-
cratic adminiStra tiOn tried to fool the
people by not levying state tax;
that administration WrOngfully drew
on different funds to run the state S
finances with the result that under
Gov. Schoteld'S first term the state
tax was raised to make good the
shortages thus created. The clrcum-
stances under which the state levy is
to be omitted this year are different;
wise economy and honest state govern
ment under SChOield have made this
years omission an honor TO the admin
iStration. and particularly to the
Governor. This years omission is not
made for political effect and the people
will not be called upon at a later day
to make good a deficit as was the case
when the democrats omitted the levy.

DRYING I'm Cows.

To dry up a COW reduce the feed,
take away the grain, and when the
milk yield drops milk first once day,
then once in two days, and in one to
two weeks the average COW will be dry
and her udder in good condition. With
persistent mixers there is seldom diff
Guilty if hay only is fed for time. If
COW continues to give milk under this
treatment or if the udder is hard and
feverish, the work of drying up must
stop and the ration be changed to
light milk ration with loosening feeds
and the COW milked regularly Forced
drying up under these conditions in
jures the COW. If by oversight the dry
ing up process has been neglected until
within three or four weeks of calving,
do not attempt it, as there is risk of in
jury to the health of the COW and her
udder. After becoming dry the COW
will need little attention before calving
If she is on good pasture, except to see
that she has plenty of good water and
shade, is comfortable and not annoyed
or injured by other cattle, particularly
steers. If the COW is on dry feed, more
attention is necessary. She must be in
fair condition but not fat, and should
have bulky feedsboth roughness and
grain-and succulent feed is exceeding
ly desirable, either ensilage or roots.
One of the best grain mixtures for cows
before calving is by weight two-thirds
bran and one-third linseed meal. This
grain mixture is a good one for the first
two weeks after calving. Alfalfa hay
is excellent for roughness. The bowels
should be kept loose. This is essential
and needs more attention than any
other condition, and for this purpose
roots and ensilage are very helpful.
Corn and cornmeal should not be fed

AERATIoN OF MILK.
A Simple Method OF Increasing Quail
ity and Price.

lily HnU 1EAcGs
There is hardly place in which
milk is used that it will not pay to cool
and aerate it at the same time. Such
milk brought to the creamery or cheese
factory, If all the patrons would prac-
tice it, would show at once in the in
creased quality OF the product and the
price. The difficulty is that there are
SO many patrons who don't believe in
any Improvement if it is going to cost
something to set it at work. Yet wher-
ever there is factory or creamery that
has prevailed on the patrons to practice
aeration and cooling that institution
stands high in the price received for its
product, says the Elgin Dairy Report.
Do not be misled by few cranks
who will tell you that the aeration of
milk is of no value; who viii tell you
that aerated milk will not remain sweet
one whit longer than any other. Do
not be misled by these, we say, but try
for yourself. Geta good combined cooler
and aerator and use it every day in the
year, winter and summer alike.
In buying cooler and aerator don't
make the mistake of getting one that
stirs the milk without cooling it. Don't
make the mistake of getting one that
cools the milk before it airs it, as aera-
ton to drive out animal and food odors
must be done while the milk is hot
from the COW and before any reduction
in the temperature has been made.
Don't make the mistake Of getting one
with many joints and pipes in contact
with the milk. Don't get one which
does not allow the milk plenty of fall
through the air to allow the animal
gases to escape. Don't get one that is
bulky and hard to handle or one that
will soon rust out because it is impos-
sible to dry out the cooling tank or
mines
