THE TIGER AND ONE Hoaa.

(From the Cedar Rapids Republican,
1t is not very often that 80 cunning
athing as tiger is fooled by Hogg.
But such circumstance actually took
place, and has been duly recorded. The
place was the city of New York. The
occ aston, the Fourth of July celebra-
tion under the auspices of Tammany
Hall.
Tammany's celebration of the ma
tion's natal day was simply means to
an end. The end in view was the rele-
CATION of Bryan asa presidential pos
sibility, and the debut of Augustus Il.
Van Wyck, who last fall attained some
notoriety by being defeated by Theo-
dore Roosevelt in a gubernstorial con-
test. The program was very carefully
planned. The list of speakers was q
long one. All Of them were expected to
play we'll their parts. And as number
after number was disposed of the
scheme seemed to be working to per-
fection. But
"The best laid schemes of mice and
men
Gang aft agley.'
The master of ceremonies introduced
one-Hogg of Texas. Hogg is man,
not an animal. He has the stature of a
giant, voice like the roar Of seven
bulls, considerable mental strength,
and the audacity of thoroughbred
Texan. 1t is recorded that true to the
instincts of the animal after which he
is named, Hogg spoiled everything. He
could neither be led nor driven. The
first thing he did was to outline plat
form for democracy. 1t included about
everything that Tammany hoped to
see killed off at its celebration. Then
came the climax. 1t was this para
graph.
"In this great contest. we want the
bid of united Tammany, the greatest
political organization on earth. We
want you to close up ranks, to settle
your local differences, if they exist,
and to 60 arm in arm with the stalwart
bread makers of the South and West,
to victory next year, under the leader.
ship of the chivalrous, the dauntless
the matchless great American, William
Jennings Bryan"
The scene that followed is said to
have beggared description. The Tam.
many underlings whom the leaders had
held as hounds in leash, broke loose
and cheer after cheer shook the build
ing. Hogg Of Texas saw that his ends
had been accomplished, and like Marx
Antony after the conclusion of his
oration over CBsar's body, he retired
thinking, if he did not utter them, the
words Mischief, thou art afoot, take
now what course thou wilt" And Mis-
chief is afoot. That scene down il
Tammany hall on the fourth of July
showed as nothing else could show, the
hold which Bryan has on the masses
of his party. Let generslissimo Cate
Sells see to 1t that no Hogg wanderl
into the democratic convention, tt

Fitting and Training the Dairy Calf.
Breeding, fitting and training horses
for the speed track requires knowledge,
judgment, skill and patience. The
young animal must be the get of an
ancestry whose distinguishing traits
are intelligence, action and endurance.
He must be bred for speed. Good judg
ment and skill gained from experience
must determine whether the young
thing gives promise of possessing the
qualities essential in an animal bred
for speed. Judgment, skill and patti.
ence are required in feeding, fitting and
training the young thing for winning
performance in the speed contests
This feeding, fitting and training begins
at very early stage of the colts exist
ence, and is patiently persisted in until
the limit of development is reached
The production of a profitable dairy
COW begins with the breeding, fitting
and training of the calf. The ancestry
must be the best we can get for the
purpose and the calf must be fed and
cared for with that end constantly il
view. The food provided must be Of
the kind and quantity which will mos,

this food in the mothers milk and il

1t is not necessary to urge upon1the
professional butter maker the import
ance of the thermometer in dairyfng;
he has already learned it, or he is un-
teachable. He has learned, not only
that he must have thermometers about
the creamery, but that he must use
them and rely upon them at all points
in the process of butter or cheese max
ing where temperature is important
and not do any guess work on the snb-
ject. He has learned, too, that varying
conditions will require varying tenn
peratures, and the up-to-date butterand
cheese makers don't need to be told
how important an instrument In his
work the thermometer is. s 4
This recognition of its importanceI
however, is by no means universally
true in the farm dairy. Lots offarm|
butter makers take temperature as it
comes and Judge it, SO far as they judge
it at all, by the guess work plan. This
is a mistake that may once in whils
produce good results, as the rule Of
thumb sometimes does, by chance, but
it can not be relied upon for uniformly
good results. Temperature is importI
ant in cresming whether the gravity
process or separator be used. A milK
room, for instance, where milk is set
should be at from go to 65 degrees, 81
that the milk shall be sour but not
thlckened, except at the bottom ofsthe
pans, when it is to be skinned & s.isspt
in submerged cans the length Of time it
should be set in order to secure as thor
ough creaming as possible will depend
on the temperature at which it is set.
In running the milk through the sepa-
rator temperature from 80 to 85 is
good one, but the cream should be cool
ed to %, or below, as soon as possible
after it leaves the separator, and these
temperatures should be ascertained by
the use of the thermometer. The tenn
perature at which to hold cream while
1t is ripening is important, for the
rapidity of the ripening process will de-
pend on it. If cream is a little off
flavor it should be ripened at low
temperature, and in churning the ther-
mometer is equally important. Good
churning-that is, exhaustive churning
: is best done at the lowest tempera-
ture at which the cream can be chlrn-
ed, but low temperature requires rich
cream, whereas cream having a low
percentage of butter fat will not churn
at all, or will churn with difficulty, un-
less the temperature is higher. All
these things, and many others in rels-
tion to temperature, can only be learn
ed by the butter maker by experience,
but the experience of yesterday and of
the day before and of last week is of no
avail to the hutter maker who guesses
at temperature. To be useful as a
guide to future work the data must be
exact, and with regard to temperature
it can only be made so by the use of a
good Thermometer
