Out in southern California the farm
ers of Redland, Pasadena and Pomona
are offering $1,000 to n rain maker to
cause one single inch of rain to fall upon
the parched surface of the soil. Here in

fund might easily be raised for anyone
who could successfully prevent the rain
from falling for awhile, at least long
enough for farmers to get all their fields
planted.

NO RAILROAD LEsIsLhyIoN

1t is notable fact that while the
Repuh leans, in their territorial and
county conventions, pledged them
selves and their party that il they con-
trolled the Fifth legislative assembly
they would enact laws regulating rail
road transportation rates, and do other
wonders towards protecting the people
from the exor bitant and excessive rail-
road rates and Oppressive express and
telegraphic charges; but so far, now at
the very shank end of the session, not
single promise have they redeemed
or even attempted to redeem During
the political campaign last summer the
leading Republican papers and orators
made loud promises what they would
do when a Republican legislature got
in power, and one of the most conserv-
ative and candid journals of the Re
publican party said that unless the
party stepped out from under the DOM
ination Of the railroads the load would
destroy it, as it ought TO be.

ANY excitement or disturbance Of the
animal system always affects the m ch
COW. In April, 1898, the Kansas agri-
cultural college purchased twelve he d
OF cows from Lincoln ,ounty, which
had to be forwarded by rail for OYER
100 miles. Records were sept from
each individual milking. and it was
found that with the ride homesicknes S
and change Of feed il took near two
weeks for these cows TO return 70
their normal quan ity and quality Of
milk. Observations since then have
monstrated that any unusual excite
ment or disturbance always influences
the mil flow. A littl, knowledge Of
the str ure Of the udder will show
why.
TIC ud aer is composed Of cavities, or
milk cisterns, and milk duets, sur
rounded by muscular connective aud
fatty tissues. AT the end of these milk
ducts we find small cells, which have
the property of secreting and trans
forming nutrients from the blood into
milk These cells are the most active
at the time of m king, and, in fact, a
large part Of the milk Is elaborated az
this time. This necessitates good
supply OF blood to the udder during
the process OF milking, for 1t is impos
sible for these cells TO manufacture
milk without fresh supplies of nutri-
ents from the blood, ANY excitement
that tends TO contract the muscles OF
the udder or turn the blood 10 other
portions OF the body will cause a de.
