LOOPING AND SUFFERING.

Galveston. Sept. 12-Today, like yes terday, is being sp5nt in clearing away the debris and removing the dead Men, literally supplied with stimu- lants, are engaged in the terrible task of disposing of decompossd bodies. Tine ghouls have been at work, too. A party of ten negroes, returning from a loot ing expedition, their pockets bulging with fingers and ears Of the dead, cut from bodies because they were too swollen for the removal of jewelry were shot to death by the incensed citizens It is believed the total thus killed will reach fifty.
 Efforts to identify the dead are slackening because of the pressure of time A hundred men worked all night uncovering the machinery of the water works. It is hoped they will be able to turn on water today. The suffering for lack of water and ice is terrible. Scores died last night and a number have gone insane. The dead in Gal weston are now estimated at 5000.

The Storrs Agricultural Experiment
station OF Cincinnati, has completed
test as to the value Of dairy cows
as indicated by the type alone In
every dairy breed there are cows that
are distinctively dairy in type and
there are other cows that approach
the beef type. The cows OF this lat
ter type, though fine bred, are in
ferior as dairy cows. The station
work in this regard is summarized as
follows:
Statistics indicate that the average
annual production OF milk and but
ter and the average profit per COW in
Connecticut diaries is considerable
less than IL should be.
Among both ordinary and thorough
bred cows the ability to produce milk
and butter varies with individual ami
mails. Dairymen should study this in
dividuality Of their cows. and should
retain In their herds only those
which produce each year certain
amount Of milk, containing a given
percentage of fat
For the purpose OF improving their
herds. both in increasing the pres
ent returns and in obtaining profit
able stock for breeding. it is essential
for dairymen to understand the real
significance OF breed, and the relation
OF form and type to capacity for
economical production.
In the college herd there are re-
markable differences In productive
capacity between individual cows OF
both the pure breeds and the grades.
These differences are accompanied by
characteristic differences in conforma-
ton and type Comparison OF types
and records of performances. by indi-
viduals and by groups, shows decided
advantage for cows of distinct dairy
type. According to the observations
made upon this herd 1t would appear
that, In the absence of actual records,
which are the final test of merit in
every COW. the type OF COW is
much better index OF her ability for
economical production than Is her
pedigree alone.
Every dairyman should have water
running directly into his barn, and
have the faucets so arranged that Il
will require but little work when the
time comes for watering the cows. On

The Agricultural College of Kansas,
in its advice to milk producers, says:
The souring Of milk is caused by the
growth of bacteria in it The fewer
the bacteria in the milk, and the slow
er they grow, the longer will the milk
keep. II cleanliness be observed, the
number of bacteria in new milk will
be few. Bacteria double in numbers
in new milk every twenty minutes
when 1t is at blood heat. They grow
slowly at so degrees and not at all
at 80 degrees. The sooner the milk
is cooled after being drawn from the
COW the longer it will keep. The usual
way to handle milk Is to set the cans
containing 1t in trough of cold
water and stir occasionally until the
milk becomes cool. II may be an hour
or two before the milk in the center
OF the can becomes thoroughly cooled,
and al this time the milk-souring bac-
terra are developing rapidly. 1t will
pay any Kansas farmer to use a cooler.
In these machines cold water flows
through the interior while the milk
flows oven the outside in drops, each
drop being quickly and thoroughly
cooled. The saving in labor over the
usual method OF stirring will soon pay
for the cooler. while the quality OF the
milk Is made much better
We found in hot weather that the
temperature OF our milk rose 10 de-
grees while on the road to the cream
cry. and that some farmers were de-
Iivering milk as high as 81 degrees.
Milk should be kept as cool as possible
while on the road and ought not to be
above 20 degrees when delivered at the
creamery. If 1t is. the quality of the
butter from It will be injured and the
creameryman will have to pay a lower
price for butter fat.

A writer on poultry topics com.
plains that cold storage eggs are sold
for fresh lad eggs, and says laws
should be passed to prevent it. Well,
the laws would be all right il they
could AFFECT the situation. but they
could not. They would be like the
laws against profanity that are on tho
statute books in some OF our states.
A law to prevent cold storage eggs
being sold as fresh laid eggs would
be in fact a law against lying. and
that vice is so universal that every
legal weapon aimed against it will fall
short. The only method of checking
this practice is to properly instruct
the buyer as to his own interests.
Some object to the principle OF cold
storage establishments because they
say ii reduces the price OF eggs at the
time when they should be high, that
is, in the winter. The argument Is
without force. If the cold storage OF
eggs causes a lower price for winter
produced eggs, it also causes higher
price for eggs produced In the summer
time. However, as by cold storage
many eggs are saved for use that
would otherwise rot, there Is little
doubt that the price is somewhat af-
fected. On the other hand. the increas-
ing certainty that when one buys eggs
he will get good ones. causes a larger
number to be consumed. When our
systems of keeping ard handling eggs
become SO perfect that no eggs spoil
eggs will have become an even more
popular article of diet than at the pres
ent time.
