through the subway was one of the
happy afterthoughts which was made
a part of the presidents two days in
Boston. 1t was hastily arranged. but
there was no unpleasant hitch in the
the arrangements. General Bancroft
made up his mind that this was one OF
the things in Boston which the presi-

Alderman Barry, chairman o. ,he

riding propensities of the aldermen
which should prove a very et1ectual
check. As a member of the board of
apportionment he was the one who
carried through the item appropriat-
ing only $1,000 for all the incidental
expenses of the body. This includes
the carriage riding. As $40. coo was
spent last year, it can be seen
that he has cut it off Sl6,0 His
theory is that that money should be
sufficient. If the board lives within this
sum the stock is apt to rise at once as
result. By the way Mayor Quincy
has concluded that horseless carriages

ADDS NEW ROLLING STOCK.

It is announced that the Du
luth & Iron Range road has orr
dercd 10 new locomotives and
300 new ore cars for delivery
next spring. The annual orders
for equipment are said to have
been made earlier this year than
usual, owing to the danger Of
delays in delivery on account of
the great activity in all branches
Of the railroad equipment busi>
ness.
The new ore cars will be of
steel and Of considerably larger
size than the ordinary orc car.
They will each have about Sc
tons capacity and about 2G Of
them loaded will make train
equal in capacity to 43 cars of
the present size.
Six of the new locomotives
will be 12~wheelers of III tons
and the four will be 10 wheelers
of rs tons each. The former en-
gines will be used on the road in
the regular orc service and the
latter will be used in the way
freight service,
It is reported that the six large
locomotives will cost the compa
ny about SO, 900 more each now
than they would under the prices
that ruled less than a year ago
The other locomotives will each
cost more in proportion. The
increased cost of the engines is
due to the advance in material
entering into their construction
1t is said that within two years
the Duluth & Iron Range will be
equipped with double tracks all
the distance between Two Har>
brrs and BiWabik. The compa
ny is said to intend building an
other track from Waldo to Tho.
mas, Reno to Hornby and from
Allen Junction to Biwabik. The
improved grades on the Iror
Range road this year have, it /!
said increased the tonnage oil

THE A PROBLEM.
In Order to Make n Good Calf the
Youngster should BE Weaned
Almost I~nstanter.

A lady in Mississippi has a fine calf
from a heifer only Il months old; a
grade between the Jersey and the
Eriesian breeds. She does not need the
milk and queries whether 1T be best to
TURF heifer and calf into pasture or to
let the calf draw the milk twice a day.
Either way would spoil both dam and
calf.
In order to make a good cow of the
heifer and Il w~ell-behaved youngster of
the calf, the best time to wean a calf is
instanter. No matter what the object.
A calf, if healthy, can be taught to
drink from the bucket in three days.
We are not unmindful of the fact that
the natural way for the calf ~ look for
nourishment is to look up, but we also
know hat to drink any drinkable sub
stance, either water or milk, h calf
must hold its head down: hence, sooner
or later, it must look down in order to
drink.
We are also mindful of the fact that
the first milk is a physic, but that fact
has never given us any trouble; the
first milk drawn from the dam does
not lose all of that property. Another
season for the '~'instanter" is that a
heifer is easier to handle and to gentle
or break to milking. The process is
agreeable to the animal to have relief
from d distended udder. When the
cali. is placed in a pen or stall near the
dam and she sees it doing well, she will
new a little, but will Don quiet down
and be content, especially when h
notices the contentment of her young
and it chewing the cud.
There is always more or less danger
of a young cow learning to suck her
self, a vice when once learned she will
never forget. There is nc end of trouble
with such an animal. There is a beauti-
full young Jersey COW that practices
it. All manner of contrivances have
been applied with very Indifferent re-
suits. OF course, in n very valuable
animal it may be endured, but can never
be entirely cured.-C. w. Murtfeldt, in
St. Louis Republic.
