A dairyman who has been taking
notes, says it requires 1000 quarts OF
milk at 2la cents quart to pay for
keeping a COW one year. All over thai
is profit. Accepting this as accurate,
it is easy TO see that a 3000-quart COW
is twice as profitable as 1000 quart

Rightman's Girl in Charge.
In Rightman's absence Rightman's
girl takes care of the house. the fields,
the herds. Just "Rightman's girl" the
dispatches say, and SO far as history
goes she has no other name. She is
pretty young girl. She knows how to
spin and weave and brew and bake
and set the milk to cool in spring
house under the hill. She knows the
history of her race, and if need be, she
would take up a rifle and fight for the
country.
Lord Kitchener was ordered to de-
stroy the Prieska district. Burn"

Soudan. his detachments thrown out,
to sweep the little settlements. Occa-
sionally the English soldiers encounter

the charge, the battle, the scattering
of one side or the other. Long lines
of litter bearers would go on TO the
field, and the groaning men whose life
blood was gushing out would be carried
to the low, hot tent, where the weary
surgeons cut and hacked and bandaged
and bathed, and the lines of dead
would be accorded burial.
One day they came upon the Right
man farm house. Kitchener and his
staff rode at the rear of the command

flames burst from the windows. They
waited and waited, and when they got
out their spy glasses they saw the SER

Preparing Soil for Ear,y Garden Crops.

Preparing Soil for Early Garden Crops.
Two years ago had a part of my
garden sown in rye in the fall and in
February broadcasted manure on the
sod, expecting TO turn all under for
early crops The result was that | was
not able to pillow that plat until at
least "A week after the adjoining soil
was in good condition for the pillow, and
even then / had TO pillow it SO wet that
the soil was IN bad condition all sum-
mer. Last year | had another plat
sowed in COW peas, which | wished to
turn under for early vegetables, but the
winter was SO wet and the Spring very
late so that peas and potatoes were two
months late, because the vegetable
matter on the ground kept the soil
from getting into blowing condition.
This season | determined not to be
caught in such fix again, so | turned
and SUBSIDIZED the land for early crops
in the fall and laid off my rows and
put what manure | had in the furrow
and threw up the beds as high as |
could with one-horse turn pillow. The
land lies level but there is perfect
drainage so these beds&sdry out when
the other soil is too wet to pillow.
When | want 10 plant ! knock down
the beds with harrow and | have a
perfect seed bed with manure rotting
underneath right where the plant will
get it.-E. Agnew Wesbter, in Prae-
tical Farmer.

On that cold, bleak ChrisImae
eve of1881 when business had been
stagnated by the heavy fall of snow
all stores were closed by nine
o'clock and the men of commerce
of the village Of Vinita, A G. Ray
mond and W. G. Patton met by
the glowing stove in George w.
Green's store and greeted there the
leading men of the times, and all
discussed the frigedness of the
weather.
At that time every person in Vi
nita knew the other and were ac-
qnainted with each others belong
ings.
Thus, it was not strange that
some degree of excitement should
be aroused by the paving of a
large newfoundland dog upon the
door for admission.
The dog sought to interpret the
reasons for his presence by varied
movements when Arch Goody-
koontz, long lamented because of
his untimely death, asserted his
intention to 60 with the dog be-
cause she certainly is looking for
aid"
Before Mr.. Goodykoontz had his
lantern ready all were wrapped in
their great coats intent upon fol-
lowing him.
An interested estimate was
placed upon the animals perform
ance and, as ne bounded out the
door opened for him, and led back
over the snow his coming tracks
framed in the glittering perspect-
i've of white, a motley array Of the
then people Of Vlnita followed him.
With a gladstone bark he en-
couraged the rescuers until they
came to about where the Frisco
mill now stands. In the blizzard
they discovered a broken down
wagon and perched upon the seat
they saw little, old man, shabby
about the face and sinister of raj
ment. An examination proved
that he was dead.
In the wagon gone awry because
of the broken wheel was found
young woman with ababe clutched

The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1900-04-13

San Juan, Porto Rico, April 1.-THE
startling fact was recently made pub
lie that in many districts of Porto Rico,
where the population reaches thou
sands. there is no resident physician.
For instance, Wayuia, a town of 1,5o0,
must depend upon simplest remedies in
the case Of illness. as there is no ply
stefan within call. At Utando the
Death rate is so per cent annually. and
this town is a days ride from Ponce
through the mountains.
Tt appears that physicians have been
sent to these districts. but they refuse
to remain, largely because no town is
able to support one. AS a result Of this
condition of things, the order provid-
ing a physician for every 800 persons
is now very difficult of enforcement, be-
cause the towns reply that there is no
fund to pay for such service.
This island is one vast poor house,
and there are opportunities for charity
at every step. Were $4,000 to be ex-
pended Immediately for medicine and
medical aid it would possibly save the
lives Of 5000 people. At one time the
government considered the feasibility
of assigning a physician to each town,
at an aggregate cost Of $50. 600 per year,
but the funds for such an outlay are
not available.
