AS TO AMERICAN PRISONERS
No Truth In the Statement That They
VIII Be Released.

LONDON, Oct. 30.-The report that
Lord Salisbury has notified United States
Ambassador Joseph H. Choate that the
British authorities will release all the
American prisoners in Ceylon, South
Africa and St. Helena, is incorrect.
Mr.. Choate has not been notified of
their approaching release nor have any
representations been made to that end
by the United States embassy here. All
that has been done consists in an ex-
change Of communications regarding
the identity and destination of Ameri-
can civilians deported from the Trans

Milk Fever.

To the Farmers Review: My ex-
perience with milk fever has not been
very extensive. Some twenty years
ago was my first. l had very fine
cow at that time known as the Roam
Shorthorn. 1t was in the month Of
June about o'clock in the evening
she gave birth to a very fine calf, and
both seemed to be in excellent condi-
ton. The next morning about sunrise
went out to look after my fine COW,
and she was lying down. When | went
to drive her up she made several efforts
before getting up on her feet, and l
cannot describe her actions any better
than that she staggered and reeled just
the same as man would when badly
intoxicated. She only went few rods,
laid down and never got up again. She
died about sunset the same day in tho
greatest agony. This cow was in good
flesh, in fact too good as that is the
most likely to take it. About six years
ago | lost another one with the same
disease. Her actions were the same,
only she lived about two days instead
of one. Since that time / have not
lost any. In the first place, endeavor
not to let my best milk cows get too
fat, as that is the kind most likely to
take the ailment. l think, too, that
COWS are only likely to have milk fever
in hot weather.
l have found as an almost certain
preventative in fever that at least one
month before calving r;1t the COW on
dry feed, without grain, and diet AT
the time of calving and several days
afterward, and you will be safe in
never having milk fever among your
cows. The cows giving the greatest
flow of milk are the only ones subject
to milk fever. A poor milk COW never
has it. have no cure for the milk
fever, neither do l have any faith in
any one else curing its. C. Judy, Yer

Discussion on Milk and Cream.


CONDENSED from Farmers Review
Stenographic Report)
At the last Wisconsin Roundup In
stitute the following discussion took
place:
Prof. Smith-The fact iB that there
Is no animal odor in milk when it
comes from the COW. 1t is put in by
the mixer. We have MIXED COWS and
set the milk at once, and when it was
opened after twenty-four hours there
was no odOr about IL. 1t can set for at
least ten days and still have no odor.
Mr.. Goodrich cannot agree with
Prof. Smith in his conclusion that
there is no animal odor in milk in its
pure state as It comes from the COW.
A short time ago heard another pro-
lessor talk on this subject. He said
that there are in the body Of every anil
nal certain eliminating organs whose
work is to eliminate certain gases,
and that the udder has some of these
organs, which eliminate these gases
from the body and pass them into the
milk.
III. It III lOA llllnh lutlt is a
difference between aerated and I'M
aerated milk that we do not under
stand.
Q.-Does aerating milk improve It
for cheese making and butter making?
Prof. Farrington-Yes sir.
Mr.. Noyes-Yes, sir.
Mr.. Goodrich-Why doesn't that set
tic it, then, that cheese factories and
creameries should require patrons to
aerate the milk?
Q.-Does not aerated milk give a
better test and more accurate test?
Prof. Farrington-Yes, sir; think
that we would get better test unless
the person that makes the test is care
full to thoroughly mix the milk before
taking the sample.
Q.-What is the cause of cream but
tering in the process of being made
into ice cream? l supply cream to an
ice cream maker in the city, and have
had it butter when it tested q per cent
fat
Prof. Farrington-There are two
things, either of which may cause 1t;
one is the temperature and the other is
the thickness of the cream. Besides
that, the cream may be exposed to eX-
cessive jarring in transportation.
Mr.. Lomar-I have been supplying
cream TO a restaurant for three years.
and / think that the trouble with Mr..
Taylor's cream is due to the man that
makes the ice cream. The tempera-
ture of the cream is too high at the
time it is put into the freezer. and the
freezer was run too fast. The beating
of the cream produced butter before it
got down to the freezing point.

which the struggle for the mastery lies
between representatives of an exclu-

of Cuba must naturally hope for sue

Democratic Candidate for the Presidency
Has a Talk with Himself.


Once upon time Mr. Bryan had a
conversation with Mr.. Bryan in order
to learn exactly what Mr.. Bryan's po-
litical views really were.
After Mr. Bryan had thoroughly dis
cussed the subject with Mr.. Bryan, Mr.
Bryan concluded that Mr.. Bryan held
so many divergent views, that Mr. Bry-
an would have to be recognized as Mr..
Bryan the Populist and Mr.. Bryan the
Democrat, and Mr.. Bryan assured Mr..
Bryan that Mr.. Bryan could manage
both parties and derive a comfortable
income as political mixer.
Mr.. Bryan was not mistaken in his
estimate Of Mr.. Bryan. and Mr. Bry-
an is so pleased with MIR. Bryan's sue
cess that Mr.. Bryan will continue to be
Mr.. Bryan to the end of the chapter.
Mr.. Bryan recognizes that Mr.. Bry-
ans position is hard on both of Mr..
Bryan's parties, but Mr.. Bryan is SO
delighted with Mr.. Bryan. that Mr..
Bryan's personal advantages outweigh
all abstract considerations that Mr..
Bryan may have for Mr. Bryan's bifur-
Gated party. Meanwhile Mr.. Bryan
continues to take off his hat to Mr..
Bryan, and Mr.. Bryan smiles at Mr..
Bryan's jokes, and Mr. Bryan laughs
whenever Mr.. Bryan looks over his
own shoulder and sees Mr. Bryan's
bank book.

passing of the bicycle have tended,
however, to produce the satisfactory
results for the horse people. Tennes-
see roadsters and saddlers of the fancy
kind are readily purchased in New
York. while many buyers from the
lower Southern States have been in
Tennessee making purchases. Some
Tennessee horses TOO have been
bought up by British agents for the
cavalry service in South Africa. Many
good horses have gone there, the buy
ers taking only such stock as suited
the cavalry arm of the service, good
individuals, rather small and with
plenty of endurance. West Tennessee,
1t is said, has been able to furnish
Just such horses as these. The ship
ments of mules from the Southwest
to scenes of war has in a measure
created demand for the scrub stocg
also, many of which class have gons
into the Delta on the plantations TO
replace the mules which are not to
be had. This has taken the price or
even these animals up from $25 and
$50 to $40 and 500. Stock men are
breeding more than they have in
number of years in consequence of the
universal good time" conditions. The
deficit In young mules in the State on
account Of the war demand is pro-
nounced very great and as result the
price is higher than it has been IN fif-
teen years. Stockmen say that the
trouble just now with horses in Ten
nessee is the lack OF good brood
mares. These are very scarce and there
is no place from which to draw sup
ply. Kentucky horse men also being
on the lookout for good individuals of
this class. and many having come into
this state in search of them.
