Calving Time.

Nearly all dairymen who give dairy
work close attention, and thereb, render
it profitable, have long since discovered
that the ancient practice Of making the
spring of the year the invariable calving
time for milk cows is back number. A
large proportion of the COWS kept for
dairy production are now bred to calve
in the fall, and the reasons for this are
many and potent. 1t brings the cows
fresh in the milk at the time when the
product is highest, for one thing. An
other is that along about the time next
spring when the grass comes, the cows
going onto the green pastures make
fresh start and are stimulated TO ill.,
creased production at time after calving
when with spring calves the production
would be beginning to fail. 1t is better
for the calf, too, if it is to be raised, for
it can be fed on skim milk, properly
supplemented with corn meal during the
winter and 60 on pasture next spring
and summer and be further along and
better able to resist the flies. Every
thing is in favor of fall calving, and
there are no substantial reasons against
it. Major Alvord declares after care
full investigation of the subject that he
regards COW as being rs per cent more
productive when she comes in fresh in
the fall than the same COW would be if
she came in in the spring. This is a
percentage that every dairyman can
well afford to strive for.
A good many dairymen now have
calves coming every month in the year.
This has certain advantage with re-
spect to the Dreaming and churning
quality of the milk. As most people
know, the milk of cows that have been
long 10 milk is more difficult to separate
and that it churns with more difficulty
The milk of COW long in lsctation,
however, can be made both to cream
and churn more readily by mixing it
with the milk Of fresh COW For this
reason it is a good thing to have COWS
coming fresh all the year around. The
old practice of exclusive spring calving,
however, is about the worst that can be
pursued with dairy herd Exchange.

TRAVELLING GARMENT.

trimming indeed-in fact, nothing more
than rosette of very soft satin and a
couple of quilts. This shape Is almost
universally becoming. and 1t IS really
smart when properly adjusted.
The newest shape Is the double brim-
med hat simply trimmed with wreath
of flowers between the two crowns and
fiat velvet bow at the back resting on
the hair The fiat shapes continue to
be as popular as ever.
A stunning travelling cloak Is shown
in today's cut. 1t Is made of fawn col
orcd cloth trimmed with pipings of n
deeper shade. The garment Is cut
without high standing collar, and it
has n shoulder ornament composed Of
three little capes, which surmount the
long, capelike effect which hides the
sleeves proper. This gives an arrange
mcnt similar to the old fashioned dol
man. A broad line of strappng runs
around the collar and the edges of the
garment. The coat is cut threc-Quarter
length in front, but with decided dip
in the back to follow the lines of the
long skirt.
The continental hat is of rough yell

THE TOPICS OF THE WEEK
EDITORIAL COMMENT.

The principal topic of conversation dur
ing the past week, has been the result
of the late election in Cecil county. 1t
is conceded on all hands that the Wings
of the county have done remarkably well
we'll so far as regards the county itself,
and well compared with the rest of the
State; for while some of the Wing count
les have been electing opposition men,
bers of the Legislature, Cecil has elected
Two Wing Delegates.
The voting in some of the districts pro
SCENTS Il similar result, and shows that
the former party lines We're not very
strictly adhered to. In the First district,
for instance, Mr.. Neasey beat his opp0-
nent 1856, while Mr.. Wilmer has only
80 majority. In the Second district. Mr..
Harris. Wing, has al majority over Mr..
Pennington. while Mr.. Wilmer falls 50
behind Mr.. Miller. In the Third district,
DIR. Mitchell has 269 majority on the
same side, while Mr.. lamar has - on
the other In the Fourth. the voting
was more regular. but even there Miller
has 2l7 over Wilmer, while James
Mackey has but 11S over DIR. Carter In
the Fifth, Janncy has 267 majority over
landvcr and lamar but / over BusSey.
In the Sixth. Janney beats Nandiver 81
votes. and Wilmer beats Miller -. while
on the Commissioner ticket Taylor beats
Barnes, Wing, 106. Nandiver beats
Janncy in the Seventh 10. Wilmer at
the same time beating Miller 1O4.
These results, looked mt with the part
IAN eye, are very singular, and we think
they bctoken the approach OF the time,
when party nominations for local offices,
will fail i'll their power to bind voters TO
any particular ticket.
Much condemnation is bestowed on the
Third district, i'll regard to its vnt" for
Clerk and Senator, particularly the
former 1t IS nut TOO true thht SeNeral Oh
the most active ana influential Wings
supported DIR. Mitchell by their votes
and influence; but the Wings of the DIS
trict should not he counted i'll mass on
that account. All districts are liable to
such calamitieS. In 1918. the FIRST dis
trict gave Mr.. Jnnncy but - majolIty'
and lost him his election. 1t would be
as wrong to charge the Wings of that
