Maintaining the Dairy.

this advice:
First-SeIect the best COWS in your
herd, or that you can buy, to keep,
and dispose Of the others.
Second-The best COW for the dairy
is the one that produces the greatest
amount of butter fat in year (for
food consumed) when being rightly
fed.
Third-To renew or increase your
herd raise the heifer calves from your
best cows.
Fourth-Test your COWS by weigh
ing the milk of each COW for year
and testing it occasionally with the
Babcock milk tester, and know how
much butter fat each one does pro-
duce.
Fifth-Use the best dairy bred sire
you can get; one, if possible, that has
a long line of ancestors that have been
first class dairy animals.
Sixth-Keep o record of the time
when the cows were bred and have no
guesswork about the time of calving.
Seventh 1T is neither profitable
nor necessary for COW to 60 dry
more than four to six weeks.
Eighth-The udder should receive
prompt attention. An obstacle may
be removed from the teat the first
hour that might battle science later.
Ninth-After separating the calf
from its mother, feed the natural milk
as soon as drawn, for week or ten
days.

Personal knowledge of Farm Work.


Common sense teaches US farmers
that we must devote our time exclu-
siyely to our work on the farm or we
will suffer loss. For instance, one
farmer told me the other day that he
had some extra work to look after last
summer aud that he was foolish
enough to hire an extra man to do his
farm work while he galloped down the
road looking after some one else's
work. Now it might appear that a
person could make fairly goo& thing
if he earns $40 to $50 per month OF
something besides farming, when q
common farm hand can be hired for
SIS to S1S per month. The difference
between SIS and $50 is quite O nice
little sum, yet when we come to count
in the extras which the $l8 man has
to have and which must be supplied
from the $50 salary it equa!izes things
considerably. Still do not think
here is where the great difference lies.
Every true farmer has some particu-
lar method which no hired man cares
to follow except while in sight of the
"boss," and it sometimes happens
that all the interests of the farm do
not get the attention they would if the
owner was doing the work himself, as
was the case of the farmer alluded to
at the beginning of this article. This
farmer said he tried his best to teach
the man that was doing his work how
to cultivate corn. but it was practi-

The Ranch Cattle Trust.

Texas Farm and Ranch says:
Whether 1t Ia really a trust or not is
immaterisl; the object, of course. is to
control the Texas cattle product. To
do this it may absorb or dissipate,
''freeze out" or make it ''too hot" for
any small rancher who fails to see
things through glasses supplied by the
trust; or to descend from metaphor to
plain English, who refuse to sell out or
get u on terms prescribed by
the trust. It may do all this-it
may ven do all it expects to do, but
there is q branch of the cattle business
it can't reach with q forty-foot pole
and a red-hOt branding ire on the
end OF it. There are about 10000
farms in Texas of ar average size of
about sixty-two acres, on all of which
cattle can be raised snd fed, and the
farmers d~on'tcare q Japanese yen what
occurs on the cattle ranges or who owns
or runs them. They can raise better
cattle, because they AVE the feed, and
their cattle don't have to go
fifteen miles TO- water, and
sequently they can push their stock
from the start and mature beeves a
year sooner than the range man or
range trust. Official statistics give
Texas over 700, COO milch cows and So
600 work oxen. The large supplies
none of this demand, and can never do
it. Dairying Is rapidly developing in
Texas. The milch and work stock
whatever their number. must be
supplied by the farmers,
it. 1t is not in the line
of the cattle trusts business; it is q
matter of feed and breed. The first
the farmers a m~onopOlize, and the
last they are going for and will have.
When farmers get The hang of it and
improve their stock as they will, they
can produce the best beef and get the
best prices. They a raise and ripen
a beef on every ten acres of the Is, OOO,-
600 acres in cultivation without con-
ficting with a crop or emitting a hog
or a sheep, while the range is over
stocked with one animal to every twen-
ty acoes. The production of cattle
an farms will also increase the
capacity of the farm for cattle raising.
Farmers can also make the range cat
tie concern pay them tribute. The
range man must lave bulls, and he must
buy and pay for them just as the cat
tie raisers have bee doing, for it is no
part of the range cattle business to
breed fine bulls. This must be done
on well-regulated farms and by compe-
tent men. 1t will be a long time be-
fore the cattle trust al fully control
the cattle business.

given out that some very prominent
capitalists from out of town have been
the purchase of large blocks of stock
and are anxious to push the proposed
line to completion.
" A. Dunbar & Son, of this city, are
now at work making survey of the
line and this survey will be perman-
ent one. In quiet way, the right of
way for almost the entire line has been
secured and no trouble is anticipated
in getting the rest Of it.
A prominent bridge man of Pitts
burg was here this week and he is con-
fident that enough capital can be in
terested to build the bridge across the
Ohio river between Marietta and Will
Jamestown. If this is done and the line
run through to Marietta a great
amount of suburban building will be
done along the line near Parkersburg
and Marietta.
AS soon as the survey lis completed
it will be submitted to the directors,
and the plans for building road COM
pleted. A franchise to enter this city
and run the line to some point near
the court house will also be sought
so that the best of accommodations to
the passenger traffic can be given
