Broken Brio "A nraCS.

Mr. Major, The famous cement man of
New York, explains some very interest
ing facts about Majors Cement.
The multitudes whe use this standard
article know that it is many hundred per
cent better than other cements for which
similar claims are made, but IA great
many do not know why. The simpl"
reason is that Mr.. Ma or uses the best
materials ever discovers and other
manufacturers do not use them, because
they are too expansive and do not allow
large profits. Mr.. Major tells us that
one Of the elements of his Gem Mt costs
$3 IS pound, and another costs So IS a
gallon, while large share of the SO call
ed cemenis and liquid glue upon the
market are rOthing more than sixteen
cent glue, dissolved N water or citric
acid. and, in some cases. altered slightly
in color and odOr by the addition Of
cheap and useless materials
Majors cement reiails at fifteen cents
and twenty-five cents Il bottle, and when
a dealer tries to sell a substitute you can
depend npon it that his only object is to
make larger profits.
The profit on Majors cement is as
much as any dealer ought to make on
any cement. And this is doubly true Ia
view of the fact that each dealer gets his
share Of the beneft of Mr. Majors adj
vertiSiDg. which now amounts to over
$4,000 a month throughout the country
Est8 hlished in 1875.

Developing the Dairy CaIf.


The calf destined for the dairy should
never be fed ration which will make
it put on fat II the flesh growing
habit is acquired by the young growing
animal, it is retained afterward and
the animal is injured for dairy pur-
poses. i. W. Hodson, ex-superin-
tcndent of the Ontario farmers in
stitutes, recommends to remove the
calf from it's dam as soon as dropped
and to put in a separate pen, where it
must be thoroughly rubbed dry with a
cloth. Some prefer to let the COW
clean the calf, but he considers it
doubtful if any good is served thereby
and il the case Of heifer with her
first calf, the longer the calf is left
With her the more troublesome she is
likely TO he, especially as regards hold
ing up her milk.
Teaching the calf to drink is not a
troublesome process when it is remov
ed early from the dam. Always give
the calf the co30strunl, or first
milk. and let it lave the dams milk for
Il week. Feed Frequently and in small
quantities. never more than two quarts
per feed. Feed the milk at temper
ature Of from 80 10 SO degrees. At the
end Of the week begin to substitute
skimmilk. There is no better substi-
tute for the butter fat removed in
Swimming the milk than faXseed or
linseed meal. Take a quart Of flax
seed, soak for Eve or six hours in six
or eight quarts OF water and boil for an
hour. Give half a teacupful Of this
jelly at each feed and increase as the
calf grows.
An English dairy farmer gives the
following as his method Of feeding
calves: He makes a p0rridge OF four
quarts Of cornmeal two quarts of
ground buckwheat. four quarts Of
wheat bran and two hQndfuls Of lin
seed meal. Each calf receives a heap
ing tablespoonful for each meal, which
is made into a pOrridge with water
and added to one quart Of sweet milk
in which a pinch Of salt is put. The
grain is gradually increased each week.

E. W. BATES CLAIMS FRAUD.
Says His Wife Obtained q Restrain.
ing Order to Keep Him From
Home by INTERPRETATIONS.

Edward w. Bates, formerly of Washing
ton, Kan, filed a petition in the superior
court yesterday afternoon asking that the
order previously entered directing him to
pay his wife, Hester T.. Bates, $50 suit
money and $50 alimony every month, pend
ing the outcome of her divorce suit be set
aside. He alleges that 1t was obtained by
fraud, representations having been made
to him that the case had been dismissed,
and that he need not pay any attention
to it.
His wife also secured a restraining order
preventing him from even speaking to her
or interfering with her or her two chill
dren. This part of the order came about
through claims that Bates was a heavy
drinker and had threatened her life with
butcher knife some time ago.
Bates says he is at loss to understand
the case, because he has always been
kind and indulgent husband MY greatest
hope" he says, sis to give my children an
education" He says again he is a mining
engineer, and that in March, 1899, he went
to Alaska. previously having provided his
wife with a large quantity Of groceries
and $3.50 in cash, In April he sent her
draft for $50 from Alaska. On returning
to his home in August he found, he says,
that Mrs. Bates had contracted debts
amounting to $3.50. These he promptly
paid, and a few days before Christmas
gave her $500 in gold. He estimates that
he has given her $1,000 in ALL and says
he is at present living at local hotel on
credit. 1t is impossible to pay what the
court has ordered, according to his story
The husband believes designing people
have influenced his wife against him.

DENIES HIS SIGNATURE.
r. e. Davis Says He Did Not Ind0rse
Firm Name ON Indemnity bond
Expers Don't Agree with Him.

The genuineness of the signature of
West & Davis, by r. T.. Davis, is the piv-
otal point in a case being tried before a
jury in Judge Benson's court. Davis
says the signature Is a forgery, while w.
w. De Long and other experts says 1t Is
genuine.

West Before serving the papers he took
an indemnity bond for $3.50. 1t was signed
by L. A. Agassiz and Miss M. Farwell,
through Charles r. Repath, as their at

tached property, and subsequently was

pitted against Dan Ames, dean of the

signatures and the one in doubt, that
all were written by the same person. Fred

Ben Petit. of Dexter Horton & Co., also
testified that the signatures were made by
the same person.
At the close Of court Judge Benson took
under advisement a motion for a nonsuit.

on an attachment, and that when 1t came
to the execution there should have been
