How to Tell a Good Cow.

One or two signs will denote \
good COW AS we'll as twenty. Iu a
poor COW the thigh runs down
straight, so there is no space be-
tween the thigh and udder on one
side and the tail on the other. There
should be plenty of daylight be-
tween the udder and the tail.
One of the best ways to tell what
kind II COW you have is her tenn
permanent. A good dairy COW has u
sharp spine, strongly developed
nervous system and sharp hip bones.
A good cow has large, wedge
shaped stomach, for she must have
a powerful digestive system to use
up her food quickly and make the
best returns tor it. Some of the
animals the first year made but lit
tie over 200 pounds per COW, while
others gave.300 pounds. We have
kept up this record every year, and
the last year our cows averaged 500
pounds per COW, and at cost Of
only AZ cents per pound for feed.
One COW gave us SIP pounds during
the year. These were no: picked,
high-priced dairy cows. but the
common run Of dairy stock. Prof.

prove that the sun was not station

80. Jasper's sermon has been
known as 1.-The Sun Do Move Ser
mon.'' This sermon was delivered
in the year 1876. jasper coutend-
ed that, in spite Of the popular mo-
tioh, .'tIle sun do move,'' and he
fortified his position by many quo
tations from the Bible. Jasper con-
tended that the earth is square, flat
and immovable, and that the sun
rises IN the east and sets in the
west. He took his text from Ex-
odns, chapter 10, verse. 3,-'sThe
Lord is a man of war; the LORD is
bis name. Jasper said, ''The Bible
says the moon stood still. II any
body going to say the sun was
standing still before Joshua told it
to stand still? Do you think Joshua
would have asked the privilege VI
stopping thessun if she had not been
moving? This NOR ing when the
sun rose it was over there, (pointing
to the east. How ia the nam. OF
God could the sun gel from that
side Of the house over to this,
(pointing to the west unless it

ariseth and goeth dowh, and hasten-
eth back to the place lie moved
from!" It is nonsense to say the
sun does not move. The man who

Jasper was in his SD year when
lie died, and for more than 62 years
he had been a preacher.

CUBANS In WASHINGTON

New York, April 25.--The exact ma
ture of the propositions to be submit
ted by the Cuban commissioners is not
known. says a Tribune special from
Washington. They have held rather
long executive session at their head
quarters in the Shoreham. the Object
of which, 1t was announced, was to de-
eide on a plan Of procedure, but If they
reached a conclusion they did not say
so. That the commissioners with prac-
tically one voice will lodge with the
President some kind of complaint
against Governor General Wood, there
is scarcely any room for doubt. Nor is
there any room for doubt that they
will in any way weaken the Presidents
confidence in that official.
