DEVELOPING A HEIFER.
Considerable Judgment on tho
Part Of Dairymen.

Much of the value of heifer as q
dairy animal depends upon the treat
ment given her during the two or three
months preceding the time of dropping
her first calf and the first year after
ward. She ought to be kept in good,
thrifty condition, fed good variety
OF food, be handled to make her gentle,
and be given such care as is best calcu-
lated to develop her mother qualities.
When heifer first comes to her milk,
the milk glands that constitute the
udder are undeveloped. With these, as
with many other organs, growth is
stimulated by use.
But the desire to secure a rapid in
crease OF progeny in too many cases in
duces the owner to breed the heifer the
second time too soon, and the effect
of this is always detrimental to her
best development. Before the processes
of lactation have been fully developed,
a second process is introduced into the
system that is opposed to the produc-
ton of milk. The energies of the cow
are turned to the growing of the young
calf. One great secret in the develop
ment of a heifer for the dairy is to
defer the breeding for her second calf
for at least four months, and, in most
cases, six months would be better. In
this way all her energies may be de-
voted to milk production. AS soon as
the milk flow is we'll established and
the danger of milk fever is past, her
treatment, both in feeding and care,
should be such as will enable her to
produce the largest quantity of milk
for the longest period.
One advantage in breeding the young
heifer so that she will drop the first
calf after grass and clover have made
a good growth is that the conditions
of milk production are then most ia.
vorable, and, with good pastuage and a
light feeding of bran and cornmeal or
bran and ground oats, the young heifer
may be kept up to her full capacity of
milk production.
At the start the udder should be
rubbed and kneaded as an aid to de-
velop it. Her treatment should be such
as will keep her quiet and gentle, and
her feeding should be such as will main
tain her in good, thrifty condition.

Milk Sent to Creameries.

There is profit to the farmer i'm
milk sent to creameries over that kept
at home, provided the cost of hauling
it to and from the creamery be not too
great. But this obstacle is done away
with where one farmer is Sc
cured to do the hauling. At the
creamery the farmer has his milk
put in shape where it will bring higher
average price than will the milk it
kept at home and made into average
farm butter. ."2.' IT,

REFRIGERATOR AND CREAMERY.
inside and add another sheeting of
matched flooring and building paper,
fur out once more, and add third and
last sheeting of matched flooring. This
gives three dead air spaces. The doors
should be built up in the same way as
the walls and the edges beveled SO as
to close practically tight.
The room to be used as refrigerator
is divided into two compartments, one
for ice and the other for storage. The
icebox is 211z feet square, the partition
between it and the storage is made by
setting two by four studding six inches
apart and sheeting up on the storage
side from the bottom of the ice chest
openings thus left at the bottom and
the top furnish means for circulation
of the air, which will pass into the top
of the ice box from the storage room,
where it has become warm, while the
cold air from the ice passes out below
to take it's place. The bottom of the
ice chest should be up some 20 inches
from the floor, and consist of galvan-
lied iron drip-pan, resting on grating
of two by tours two inches apart. This
grating may be made by mailing the
two by fours onto both sides of the
studs forming the partition.
The water from the melting ice should
be conducted from the drip-pan to the
outside by means of pipe, provided
with trap, the trap being necessary to
prevent an outflow of cold air with
the water. The sides of the ice box
should be lined with four-inch strips
of inch stuff about one inch apart, the
edges planed to bevel as in Fig. l, so
that the drip where the ice comes
against the sides will fall to the inside
and into the pan below. The shelves in
the storage room should be of Stats, so
as to allow circulation of air.
The outside door should be 2h feet
wide, the door into the cold storage
the same width and extending from
the floor to the ceiling. The door into
the ice box, two feet wide and about
three feet high. One window with
double glass, about three feet long and
1h feet high, well up in the side of the
wall, will give sufficient light. The
sides of the building should be well
banked up, so that the space under
the floor will be dry and the air dead.

Skilled Men in Demand.

The demand for skilled buttermakers
is expected to be greater this season
than ever before. A number of cream
erymen have been heard to express
themselves as being through expert
menting with poor, cheap help, as it
has proven very expensive, and they
will begin this season with competent
help. 1t is to be hoped that every cream
eryman will see the profits to be gained
by employing buttermaker skilled
in his art, and pay him good salary.
The buyers on Our leading markets are
becoming more and more critical each
year. it is going to be the creameries
that turn out fancy butter every day
in the week that will be on top next

AGAINST NASH
Was the Audience, and the Re-
publicans Didn't Deliver
Their Speeches.

Toledo, o., Oct. 26.-One of the best
stories of the present campaign comes
from Sylvania, Lucas county, where
Hon. Charles p. Giffin. r. r. Kinkade
and ]. V. Newton were assigned to de-
liver Republican addresses Friday
night. When the trio reached Syl-
vania they found the Town Hall filed
with people listening to an address be-
ing delivered by the engineer of the
famous Mitchell raiders during the civil
war on the work of that daring band.
At the conclusion of the lecture a red
hot Republican named A. H. Hotchkiss
arose and asked the lecturer If he would
not kindly say few words in behalf of
the Republican ticket and Judge Nash.
Messrs. Griffin, Kinkade and Newton
were in the audience at the time the re-
quest was made.
The lecturer smiled and replied:
II am not much of a politician, but
heretofore 1 have teen a Republican.
How Yer, if 1 could vote in Ohio this fall
would cast my vote for John r. Nc
Lean for governor"
Such tremendous applause followed
for several minutes that the lecturer
had to stop. but he concluded as fol-
lows:
But if I live to next year expect to
cast my vote for that sterling Demo
crat, William Jennings Bryan"
The applause that followed was deaf
ening and lasted several minutes, and
cheers We're given for Mclean and
Bryan.
This was too much for Messrs
Griffin, Kinkade and Newton. They
filed from the hall as If threatened by
an army Of Beers. They entered their
carriages and drove back to Toledo with
their undelivered speeches in their
pockets. The stirring climax occurred
about II o'clock at night, and shows the
feeling of the people in rock-ribbed
Sylvania.

THE TRAVELLING MAN AND THE
TRUST.
(The Sample Case.)

In a general sense it is true that
business and politics will not mix; but
to our mind, during the next twelve
months it will be the part of wisdom
for every commercial traveller to lay
aside his political prejudices, and re-
gardless of former party Affiliations,
mix a little business with his politics.
To the ordinary citizen it is not a mat
ter of deep concern whether the gentle
man who hands your mail through the
post office window, the deputy sheriff
who hands you your invitation to sit on
the jury, or the one who politely mails
a notice to your address, to the effect
that by calling at his Office and paying
the taxes you will avoid the penalty,
is Republican or a Democrat, so long
as the ability and integrity Of those
officials remain unquestioned and the
ordinary routine of business affairs re-
main uninterrupted; but when the
course of your political ship is straight
towards the rocks of distress for the
human freightage with which it is la
den, 1t becomes the business of every
citizen to seek the cause of distress,
and having discovered it, to apply a
certain and speedy remedy for it's
correction. "a wise man may change
his mind, fool never does"
We need policy of protection to fos-
ter our infant industries" or we need
policy of expansion, and Imperialism;
