CLEAN MILKING PAYS.
Interesting Experiments Conducted
by Prof. ID. IL. Otis. at the Kan
sas State station.

Ii is a well-known fact that cows not
MIXED clean will tend to dry up in short
order. Another important reason for
milking clean is to get all of the butter
fat, which is contained in n much larger
per cent in the last than in the first
milk drawn, as is shown by the follow
ing experiment. The college dairy has
conducted an experiment showing the
importance of clean milking. Five
cows were selected and their milk col
lected in half-pint bottles, each teat
contributing its share TO every bottle.
These samples were tested with the
Babcock test, with the following re-
suits:
Cow No. 6 varied from 6 of one per
cent. TO 7.2 per cent.
Cow No. 10 varied from . of one per
cent. TO &C per cent.
Cow No. II varied from 1.G per cent.
TO SIS per cent.
Cow No. IS varied from LIS per cent.
10 G.s per cent
Cow No. 20 varied from $ of one per
cent. TO rs per cent.
The results show a gradual, although
not entirely uniform, increase in the
per cent. of fat from the beginning to
the last of the milking, except with the
last two samples drawn from each cow.
p Here the per cent of fat would take a
sudden leap. amounting often to third
or n half of the total variation. This
shows very clearly how important il is
to get all the milk. BY averaging the
a
ter of pint was worth from three
fourths to ~. pints of milk first drawn
from the udder. Moral: Milk clean
and get fat.D. II. Otis. Kansas Expert
ment Station.

AUTUMN JELLIES.

Applying Poultry Manure.

Do not neglect to make use of the
poultry droppings, says the Farmer.
Thsre is no manure on the farm that
equals il, and If properly gathered
from droppings boards it will be en-
tirely free from weed seeds, very inn
portant characteristic of fertilizers. \
great many are afraid to use it. fear
ing il is so strong as TO burn up the
plants which il is intended to benefit.
There is only one proper method of APP
plying poultry manure to the soil be-
fore planting. and that is broadcastng
il upon the soil after blowing and thor
oughly mixing ii with the soil by har-
rowing. Applied in this way, the
growth of the crops grown on that
piece of ground will be simply won
derful. 1t should be spread rather thin;
at least whe2lbarrowful will go as
far as wagon load of coarse stable
manure. The thicker it is spread the
more thoroughly it should be narrowed
into the soil.

RURAL MAIL DELIVERY.
tenn Must Lead to the Construc-
ton OF Better Roads.

The Chicago Record in recent issue
gives an interesting resume of the ops
Grafton of numerous free rural delivery
routes in Montgomery county, Ind,
typical community of the middle west.
1t has demonstrated that all of them
have been operated to the entire satis-
faction of the Indiana people enjoying
the convenience, and also of the post
Office department. The Records cor
respondent gives figures which suffi-
GENTLY vindicate the action of the de-
partment. The routes are about 30 miles
lang. During the first month of the de-
livery each of the carriers delivered
about 1000 pieces of mail matter; at the
end of the first year they were deliv-
ering more than 5000 pieces a month.
During the first three months they
would each collect from eight to ten
letters daily; now they collect so to
GO daily, besides many packages. Facts
are cited to show the many improves
ments that have come about and the
three most significant are those which
show the concrete fact that farms have
raised in value, the department is re-
ceiving n net profit of $40 per month
and that the convenience has st.mu-
lated the building of two new macadam-
lied roads to induce the government to
establish more routes. With these
roads and without the free delivery sys-
TEN has come II greater value TO the
farms lying along them than has come
to those with free delivery apd poor
roads, and the net result\has been a
larger and more vital interest in the
movement that was first inaugurated
by the League of American Wheelmen.
1t will only be u matter of time. and
a comparatively short time at that,
when the motor vehicle will assume
large proportions in this matter of free
rural mail delivery. Already the BIZ
cycle has become the one great feature,
but in the system necessarily in vogue
and that will be greatly extended in its
operation and in it's mileage its value
must needs have its limitations because
of the carrying capacity of the machine
and the mileage ability of the letter
carrier.
Territory having good roads and free
delivery will show so marked an in
crease in land values over ad jacent Sec
tons that have not these signs of prog
ress and prosperity that the local IA
theirs will have before them selfish in
ducements to advance the cause that the

Economy Win FnIIcn AppIc,.

THERE'S much waste in the common
practice of turning hogs into orchards
to pick up fruit and make that their
exclusive diet. The hog will soon learn
to eat only the ripened fruit, saving
that which is wormy. This fruit can be
sold or dried, and IL forced to do IL the
hog will eat the wormy fruit before the
worm escapes. But to make this really
economical some grain and milk should
be given to hogs in addition to their
fruit diet. This will make the young
pigs grow and will strengthen their de
gestion for the exclusive corn feeding
that will come when they are put up to
be fattened

Lo.. from Poor MI,ker..

A good mixer should have a strong
grip in his hands. He will have it if he
milks cows many years. The grip does
not necessarily require very strong
muscles, but it is the constant exercise
twice day which gives the muscles OF
the hands and fingers development
that nothing else will do. But If a
hired man has not already such a de-
velopment of muscles as will make him
fast mixer, do not employ him with
the milking of cows as one of his du-
ties. While he is learning to milk a
steady and fast stream he is drying the
COW off, as after time she will learn
TO hold up her milk. If only little
milk is left after each milking, the COW
will very soon go dry. That will cost
the farmer more than the wages of a
good mixer who will keep the COW to
her standard until near the time to drop
another calf.-American Cultivator.

American Law in
Cuba and Portoa,Rico

Washington, Nov. 3.-The difficulties
attending the administration of justice
in Cuba and Porto Rico are pointedly
brought out in reports to the Advocate
General of the Army, General Lieber,
whose annual report was made public
today. Major Dudley. at Havana, states
in the course of report:
THE present situation here has no
exact precedent in that during time
of peace we are in temporary military
occupation of friendly territory, not
our own land, pledged to discharge the
obligations that may under interna-
tional law, result from the fact of such
occupation lor the protection of life
and property, and to withdraw from
the island so soon as a stable govern
ment of its own shall be established.
THE opposition to complete
change of the spirit. methods and
technicalities of the Spanish law, as
now maintained in the system of in

ally surprising. But though slow in
coming, the assertion of such personal
rights and liberties rs are already en-
joyed by Americans under American
law will come sooner or later, as be-

people, such as the Cubans desire to

Major Sharp, Acting Judge Advocate
of Porto Rico, reviews the manifold
difficulties in dealing with brigandage,
the complex customs relating to mar
riage and divorce, the crowding of jails
with men, women and children who
literally rot while justice proceeds at
snails' pace. He says every substan-
tial reform is eagerly received by the
people. the opposition coming from
the small conservative element. He
deprecates the premature withdrawal
of this Government and the establish

ment as some of the Porto Rican news
