LIVE STOCK CENSUS.

Los Angeles Times: The National
Live Stock Association is endeavoring
to secure better census of live stock
tnan we nave ever before had. In this
the association has the hearty cooper
atlon OF secretary Wilson, who says
that with regard to the census of do
mestic animals we have never had such
a thing since the United States was
nation. 1t shows milk cows and
other than milk COWS, horses and
mules, ETC., which is about as intelli-
gent as If the census of the population
were expressed women and other than
women. The Secretary goes on to
say:
There has never been a census
taken of the domestic animals in the
cities, so that it is exceedingly worth
less, unintelligib1e and inapplicable and
senseless. have made several moves

IN GALICIA.
A Country Where the Men and Boys
Are strIl1ingly Handsome and
Picturesque.

The men and boys were strihngly
handsome, with straight frntllres, dark
eyes and hair cut across iead
and falling ON the neck behind, like
Velasquez portrait, says Blackwood's.
The garments they wore, too, were not
only comfortable and sanitary, but
amazingly satisfying to the eye. The
groundwork, so to speak, for both men
and women, was rough, homespun
linen which lay bleaching in narrow
lengths beside the river. The mems
trousers were stuffed into high black
or yellow boots and their shirts were
embroidered on the sleeves in blue and
red or black, and confined at the waist
by broad leathern girdles, much orna-
mented with brass. The women wore
long garments, like the mems shirts,
coming down to their ankles and GOV,
cred behind and before by a pair OF
voluminous aprons, made of a rudy
striped wooden stuff, more or less bril-
liant in hue.
Both sexes and Gil ages, down even
to babies in arms, have short, sleeveless
sheepskin coats, usually open in front
The skin side is embroidered in vary
ing designs, more or less elaborate, car
ried out chiefly in red wool and green
and red leather. When it is fine the en-
broidered side is exposed; when it is
wet the woolly one appears. These kip
tars are very light, very warm, and yet
being sleeveless, they are never stuffy
1t is amazing how persistently they
are worn, and it is only in the hottest
weather that the peasants strip them
off when working in the fields.

RUN BY SEVEN WOVEN.
A Texas Hotel That Is Ably Con-
Quoted by "Seven SanctA-
fed Sisters"

They say that the best hotel In Texas
is to be found at Bolton, town on the
Santa Fe road, and it is kept by "seven
sanctified sisters" as the proprietors
are popularity called. Several years ago
a woman In that place and her husband
ouarreled over the best way of ex-
pounding Scriptures to Sunday
school class, and were so stubborn that
they separated and were finally di-
vorced. This family controversy was
taken up by the town, which was soon
distinctly divided between the adher-
ents of the husband and the adherents
of the wife. The result was a large
crop of divorces, and seven husbandless
women, including the original cause Of
the commotion, joined together and
rented the town hotel. One of them
did the cooking, another was parlor
maid, third made up the beds, and
so they divided the work among them
ana ran the establishment upon the
cooperative plan. They would not en-
ply a man about the place, although
the most of their patrons were men,
of rise. People say that women trav-
as preferred to stop elsewhere, and
that would be woman's way. One of
the "seven sanctified sisters" used to
drive big carry-aI1 down to the rail
way station three or four times q day to
meet the trains, but she let the regular
transfer company handle the baggage.
The hotel prospered from the begin
ming, and there was no reason why 1t
should not, for everything was neat
and homelike and the cooking was the
best in Texas, which is not saying
much, perhaps, but is good reason
why it was appreciated. Every Sun
day it was crowded. The drummers
used to swarm there from all the north
central part of the state, and every pas
senger on the Santa Fe trains was an
advertising agent. The "sanctified sis,
ters" made money, as they deserved to
do; they enlarged their establishment
and started a big laundry in connection
with it, where the drummers left their
soiled clothes to be done up while they
were out during the week. Then the
Sisters bought hotel at Waco, and
started laundry there, with equal
success, and now they are talking Of
] starting one in New York.-Chicage

e0LoRING BUTTER
A Dairy Paper Presents Some Very
Strong and Logical Arguments
Against the Practice.

If oleomargarine were put upon the
market undisguised and sold honestly
for what it is there could be no ground
for complaint, either moral or legal
If people knowing what it is deliberate
ly buy it, they have perfect right to
do so, and any law forbidding its man.
ufacture or sale would be not only I'M
fair and unjust, but in direct violation
of the letter and spirit of the rights OF
American free men. But there is, we
presume, no case on record where IN
colored oleomargarine was offered for
sale as oleomargarine and sold for use
as a substitute for butter. iii were not
colored to resemble butter the amount
sold would never trouble any butter
maker. In fact if there were no butter
color there would practically be no
oleomargarine sold. 1t is in coloring 1t,
shaping it and stamping it to resemble
butter that the fraud consists. 1t is
against the butter color that the law is
aimed.
In the same way so-called butter,
ringed, streaked, striped and spotted,
without regard to previous condition or
composition, is colored and nodded to
initiate first-class butter. The original
stuff out of which this process butter
is compounded is but little, if any, bet
ter than the raw material of oleomar-
earine. But butter color cures all de-
fects for the purpose of sale, just as
with oleomargarine.
Against this and process butter all
real dairymen wage open and relent-
less war, but with the utmost incon-
sistency they take the very same but
ter color and use it precisely as the
oleomargarine and process people do
for the same purpose, too; that is, for
giving their butter a uniform and at
tractive color, the color of the best but
ter when at its best-Jersey butter

degree and not of kind-of bad, worse,

HINTS FOR THE DAIRY.

A COW abominates an unclean person.
Many dairymen feed too much; more
feed too little.
Cows need roots from October to May
for best results.
Sailing the COWS is one of the things
too often neglected.
Do not milk your cows before they
calve. Reduce the food if udder is get
ting too hot, but do not milk.
There is good reason to believe the
colastrum, or first mess, should be d.
vided between the cow and calf.
In dairying brains are needed as
much as "blood;" yet the amount OF
brains is not as essential as the quality

if hear any swearing the swearer

The greatest blessing that ever comes
to dairyman is sweet-tempered wife,
who can make fine butter. I know this
by experience. The wife appreciates
having her husband say nice things
about her and her work. - Midland

parsnips for Dairy Cows.

There is no better root for cows than
the parsnip. 1t has the advantage that
part of the crop may, if need be, be Win
tered in the ground where it has grown.
The parsnip, unlike the beet, makes a
rich milk. It is equal to the carrot IN
this respect, and undoubtedly, like that
root, helps to color winter-made butter.
Parsnips are favorite winter feed OF
Jersey and Guernsey farmers, who by
Its use have been able to breed COWS
whose high butter color has become
hereditary in these breeds. No doubt

the old employees and members of the
union have stood by their colors and
have refused to yield until their de-

rainy weather prevented the running
of busses and compelled people to

the company has taken the credit OF
the results of the elements and claim
a gain in patronage, which in a meas

not one of these acts have been traced
to the strikers. The general suppo'
sition is that the detectives and cut.
throats who follow up street cal
strikes as business are responsible
for whatever depreda1ions have been

The lies which have been set in cir

the windows shot out of them by des-

There has been but one car interfered

believed that some of the imported

trated this act of vandalism. The
daily papers which give circulation to
these stories without looking to the

The strike at Buffalo of the package
freight handlers and shovelers is one
in which the workmen are very liable
to come out victorious, and while the
employers are pickering with the men
over Il small advance in wages they
are losing thousands of dollars daily
both to he men and themselves. No
matter how much improvement there
is in business the capitalistic classes
are bound that the laborer shall re-
ceie no part of it. Prosperity as in
terpreted by the moneyed man means
an opportunity to make larger profits
at the expense Of the toiler.
