splendid development of udder that
characterize the big mixers. A cows
body is butter and milk factory.
You cannot expect to make much but
ter and milk in small factory. The
'swedge-shaped' COW has a deep body
where depth is needed-where the ma
chinery of the body is at work con-
verting fodder into dairy products.
The cow that has little depth from her
back down to a point beneath her
Just in front of the udder has never
shown up, so far as my observation
has gone, as a heavy milker. like
also to see an udder like those in the
cuts. They stamp the cow at once as
a producer of large quantities of milk.
and these udders may well be taken
as model examples, not only in re-
gard to size, but as to shape as well.
Notice the fullness in the fore part
of the udder and how well it runs up
behind, with the large, well-placed
teats and its general appearance of
large capacity. Such an udder, when
MIXED out dry, will fall in loose, soft
folds, like an empty bag. It is good
type to breed to.-N. Y. Tribune.

of stable government which prevents
capital from going to countries whers
people are willing to work for starv-
alton wages. 1t is an automatic ar
rangement of nature that in unciv-
ilized or partly civilized countries
franchises and monopolies are not
well enough protected for capital to
risk itself If this were not so, all
manufacturing industries would seek
at once the country of cheapest wages,
other things being equal, and the
starvation of the home population
would follow 1t is best for the world
that the government of such countries
should not be too stable. and by in
sisting upon a stable government in
the Philippines we are doing our best
to throttle our own interests.
It is clearly the interest of all wage
earners to oppose imperialism root

doubt on the subject, let them con-
slider the cotton operatives of Egypt.

the question dispassionately, but per-
haps brief account of what / have
seen with my own eyes in Egypt may
serve to illustrate it. We hear great
deal of the political benefits con-
ferred by the British government
upon the Egyptians. but little or
nothing is said of the industrial re-
suits of expansion. and yet those re-
suits are the most important.
Some years ago while / was living
in Egypt [ visited one of the cot

These mills are owned by English,
French and German capitalists and
operated by native labor. In the

CONVICTS AND ROADS.
A New York State Experiment which
Contains Valuable Lesson for
County Officials.

The agitation Of the League of
American Wheelmen to have .convicts
rised in building public roads is slowly
making headway. On this subject the
New York Post recently contained the
following:
'sThe League for Good Roads in
Oneida county reports favorably on
She experiment of employing convicts
, on roadmaking. Under the direction
Of the board of supervisors and the
superintendent of a trained engineer
the county prisoners have constructed
macadam road 1910 miles long
through the village of New York
Mills, near Utica. The county author
tiles made a contract with the road
district whereby it was to furnish la
borers at rs cents day and allow
roller, ETC., free of charge. The road
district furnished the necessary fuel
and material and paid for supervision.
The cost of the road was about $5,s75,
or 1900 a mile, and the total cost
was only three times the amount of
the annual road tax. As it will cost
only $3.50 year to keep the new road
m repair, the annual saving will
amount to about $3.50, and after the
fost has been repaid the taxpayers
will be relieved to this extent, or the
money can be devoted to other inn
provements. While this road was
building the state authorities were
constructing similar one of equal
length wh:ch was to cost, at the con
tract price, $4,000"
