Calves and SkimmiIk.

One must learn to manage calves
when feeding skimmilk, and with. ex-
perience success is easily attained.
says Professor ". \. Henry. The milk
should always be fed sweet and warm
ed to blood temperature. Care should
be taken to restrict the amount Of
skimmilk allowed. for it is often fed in
excess. Further. it should never be
fed in anything but clean vessels and
at regular intervals. After eXhausting
the contents of the feed pail the calf
will take readily to whole or ground
oats, cornmeal. middlings and other
similar concentrates. Later hay may
be added. AS indicated above, there is
an art in feeding the calf which can be
learned from close study. When once
it is learned. the feeder has acquired
knowledge CT great value.

SELLING OLEO.
City People Who Have Forgotten |
the Taste of Butter.

| City People Who Have Forgotten
the Taste of Butter.
Il learned more about oleo than
did about butter" said Assistant Dairy
Commissioner White after attending
the national dairy convention in Chi
cago. people ia Chicago have forgot
ten the taste of butter. They have
fed on oleo so long that they don't
know the difference.
There are 800 federal licenses to
sell oleo in Chicago, and there is store
after store where they sell nothing but
pure creamery BUTTER according to
the placards, that handles nothing but
Oleo.
ut is put up in something like two
dozen different forms in maybe a
dozen grades and labeled 'Elgin Cream
cry and Wisconsin Creamery but /
am glad l didn't see any Minnesota.
Some Of it sold as cleo at 16 cents, and
maybe the same grade is sold as but
ter for as high as % cents.
1.-THE department stores are honest.
They sell cleo on it's merits. One
store handles $1,000 pounds a month
of oleo
"But in only one restaurant where
ate was any real butter served.
THAT isn't the whole of it. The
Oleo agents go around with samples
mixed, as much as half, with pure but
ter-the best grade. And that, they
say, is cleo and ever so much better
~
know butter only~by the oleo they have
eaten have to admit it. If that isn't
a case Of double cross l never saw
one What with buying oleo that he
thinks is butter and getting samples
Of butter that he thinks is oleo, how is
a Chicago man to know any better?
'They are just beginning to do bet
ter. They have a pure food and dairy
law in Illinois for the first time, be-
lieve, this year, and the first commits
sioner, who resigned for some reason,
has just been succeeded by new
man. They will be all right when the
department gets going.
'They have tried to correct the abuse
on the simple basis of false represen-
tatiOn and have had, | think. 10 cases
dismissed. Now they ought to be able
to regulate it.
"And as soon as it is possible for Chi
cago people to tell butter from cleo,
and vice versa, then it ought to be
good field for the Minnesota creamery
men to work up a high class trade.
They have the better chance because,
so far as know, the reputation of the
Minnesota butter has not been ira
duced by the sale of oleo under it's
name.'

The Aged Minister.

If his work be in city church, it
is grave question whether any min
lister can, now discharge it with eff
cheney who is much above SO years
Of age. The multitude of details in

the severe demand upon the mind and
the heavy burden of responsibility call
for a man in the prime of life, with
an alert intellect and an unfailing
body.-Ian Maclaren in Ladies' Home

Here is story which Baron Dowse,
the celebrated Irish judge, once told
in that exaggerated ''brogue" which he
loved to employ:
81 was down in Cork holding assizes.
On the first day. when the jury came
in, the officer of the court said, 'Gintle-
men av the jury. yen take yer accus-

\ letter from Il volunteer officer Serv
ing at Zamboanga, Mindanao island,
one of the most southern of the Phil
ippine group, TO Il relative in Washing

Asiatic possessions is not all fighting
and hiking" says the Washington
Post. He writes: The presidente gave
a grand feast and ball on April 4, pro-
claiming in the public invitation there
to forgiveness to all his political enc
mics and the promise of royal treat
ment. He certainly did furnish his
guests with lively entertainment. In
the course of the day he dispensed
over $1,000 worth of beer and wine,
including champagne.
Not to be Outdone in lavish display,
Datto Mando, the MORO chief, follow

example and gave II grand celebration.
The dattO started his affair with a bull
fight, in an improvised ring, and it was
rather lively show of the kind. The
picadors were uniformed in the regula-
ton Spanish ring fashion, and the pref
test of the MORO girls was crowned
queen of the occasion. The whole af-
fair was carried out in the approved
style of Spanish bullfghts, the only
drawback being the fact that of the
20 bulls brought into the ring only two
put up any sort of fight. For the
evening the datto gave n 20 course

ing morning Millie, while being taken
10y her mother 10 the Twelfth street
station, ran into the main office of
Dowie's place, where she was seized
and kpet for five weeks, though her
mother showed commitment papers is
sued by Judge Carter. Mrs. Logan al
legged also that the elders tied Mile
hand and foot. treated her cruelty and
made indecent proposals and actually
assaulted her. Whipp says Dr. DOwie
denied all Mrs. Logan'S charges.
Statement Made by Dowie.
Dowie stated that Mile had been
brought TO the house and he had seen
her twice. once when lie blessed her
and again in the assembly room. Whipp
says Dowie denied his right to inspect
the place, but waived it and showed
him over the buildings. The main
structure is used as L hotel. Adjoining
il on Michigan avenue are the Zion
laundries. printing offices. Zion taber-
nacle (which holds $500 peopleD and
numerous Industries varied in charac-
ter. Then there is the Sixteenth street
Zion for fallen women, and scattered
throughout the city are innumerable
lions of different characters; so many
that it would be impossible in a short
time to inspect them all. Whip called
on Mrs. Logan and got her story in de
tail. He has not made II report to the
board of what he found and saw in
Zion, nor his conclusions in the
case at issue.

Figures Questioned.

The Baltimore SIMS Cumberland cor
respondent writes to that paper of some
prevalent skepticism of the accuracy of
the census returns from this county. In
his own words:
The population of the various counties in
Maryland as announced by the Census
Bureau, which shows that Allegany county
has 1904 inhabitants while the county
shows registered vote of only IL ,537. is &C.
casioning much comment and the accuracy
of the figures is being questioned. The cen
sns shows Frederick county to have 81, 800 in
habitants while her registered vote is IL, $50,
or 1913 more voters than Allegany has.
Washington county has 49, 1873 inhabitants,
with a registered vote of IL ,6l3 a larger num-
Der than Allegany, which is credited with
6,7S7 more people than Washington county.
These figures are hard to reconcile.
The fact that registration results are
reached by ii radically different process,
by different people, III different coun-
ties, may account largely for discrcpan-
cies when compared with the results of
the more uniform census system.
But if this be not sufficient-if the
census figures are inaccurate, they can
he fully justified by the righteous anti
merit rule of selection of incompetent
enumerators by equally Incapable State
committeeman here and there.
The JOURNAL called attention to this
matter at the time.

The Bond OfCnity.

The brewers will make herculean eff
fort to get the dollar-a- barrel tax on
beer removed at this current session of
Congress, notwithstanding the outlook
is very unfavorable.
They argue that the taxes on their
product should not remain when the
tobacco and other luxurious industrials
are to be relieved.
Viewed from the freezing standpoint
of implacable equity, it does look unfair.
Especially SO when it is considered
they contributed so literally to the cam
paign fund for the distinct purpose of
saving to their own pockets the 30
millions which now goes in every other
direction except to the promotion of pub
lie education and good roads.
''They are" it is said, ''inclined to
blame the church people largely for the
anti-remOval sentiment" but they for
get that pnrty is "the tie that binds
brewers and ''church people" to vote for
the same men.
