The near approach of the inaugu-
raj ball makes haste necessary in the
selection of the slippers and carriage
boots. This stock and variety, as
large as they are, may not contain
just what you wish, and therefore
special designs will have to be made
to your measure, all of which re-
quires several days. In nine in
stances out of ten, however, we are
able with this most comprehensive
variety to suit you, for we show all
the novelties in addition to the con-
sentative effects-all the swell crea-
tons of the leading designers whose
styles set the fashion in the metropo
lis of America. We show to MANY
styles which are the crystalization OF
Our own ideas which we've had made
to us to suit the tastes of fastidious
dressers.
The same haste is necessary if you
have military or riding boots to buy
for wear in the inaugural parade,
though you'll find here ready to
wear all the fashions which are cor

Weather on "the fourth" may be
inclement and it behooves all who
will be exposed on this occasion to
provide themselves with waterproof
and dampproof footwear. Such
footwear is shown here in most COM
prehensive assortment.
Those contemplating southern
travel and DESTROYS of taking with
them the new spring and summer
footwear will find it here in variety
almost complete. The correct fash
ions in golfng, shooting and riding
footwear are also here in abundance.
One whole floor third is devoted
to the selling of children's street and
party footwear, and if you've never
been here you'll be surprised at the
extent of the stock-a feature of the
usual shoe store which is most often
neglected.

pairrlng in California.

In the alfalfa districts one hears
incredible reports concerning the pro-
ductiveness of the soil. Enormous
crops are common, and five or six cut
tings a year are not unusual. Irriga-
ton is practieed to a considerable ex-
tent Here, too, grain is seldom used.
When cows are grazing they are usu-
ally given small amount of hay at
night, and little bran is occasionally
fed. One dairyman, who paid SITS an
acre for his forty-acre ranch, reports
that he receives about 500 per month
from the creamery for the milk of his
thirty COWS. He uses no grain, pas
lures eight months, and feeds hay four
months each year. His herd consists
Of ordinary grades and fairly repre-
sents many others which have been
built up within a short time from stock
which is better for beef production
than for the dairy.
1t is stated On good authority that
a dairyman in Yolo county fed ninety
milch cows in a corral from Marcn 10
to July Is. 1897. on alfalfa cut from
thirty-two acres. No other feed was
used. The cows gave satisfactory re-
suits in milk yield and were in bet
ter condition at the close of the period
than at the beginning. The custom of
keeping cattle out of doors is made
possible by the prevailing mild eli
mate. On many ranches the animals
never so under a roof to be MIXED or
for any other purpose.
These facts make it evident that the
California dairymen have good cause
to boast of their ability to produce
milk eheaply. AS might be expected,
they have much room for improve
ment They admit that in many ways
their methods are extravagant and not
q few of them are leading in move
ments toward economy. The more
careful selection of cows for the dairy
and especially the selection of good
stock for breeding is line of inn
prosement which would show splendid
results.

A Colorado writer, speaking of the
fall and winter outlook for feeding
lambs, says: The lamb feeding situa-
ton for this fall and winter is Just
now interesting. All parts Of the south
and west report a very heavy crop Of
lambs. Prospective buyers who have
Travelled over the sections note that
there will be also a big cutback-
there have been too many twins tc
permit the entire holdings to sell at
an even price. Growers are soliciting
business and quoting close around last
years prices. Some buyers say that
never before have they been deluged
with so many offers to sell. Very few
contracts have been closed, however,
for buyers, almost to a man, are salts
fed that they can get all they want,
and the longer they wait the less
money viii they have to pay. They
reason this way: Good sales years
do not follow in succession. Last win
ter's feeding averaged about s7.25, the
best price in years, and every feeder
made money. The year before he lost
heavy, and now that he has a gain he
proposes to keep it. While this
springs market averaged SIPS. next
spring it is just as liable to go down
to s5.25 as not, for there is surely GO
ing to be a great deal of feeding, and
good reason to think there will be
more than in many years, thus Great
ing an immense volume OF production.
This volume is going to be created
through the fact that there is bound
| to be according to conditions today
a scarcity of winter feed, especially
in the west and northwest, and the
impossibility of the rangemen to carry
their stock, coupled with the fact that
there will be plenty of grain and grass
| feed east, will result in large sales and
| at low prices. This is the condition
as presented today. There must be
frequent good rains for the next
month to insure the feed in the west,
yet in many places it would do no
/ good.

terms:

always supposed these affections to
be different diseases, but l have

are properly called catarrh.

The hand separator and the small

factory or turn it over to the man that
comes after it. The skimmilk can
then be fed before it is sour and there
is no necessity Tor heating it to 1S5

1t is surprising to note the indiffer-
ence of some farmers to the quality of
their cows. We might almost say that
the farmer is a fatalist when it comes
to COW owning. If a COW sells at GER
tain price on the market he imagines
that the COW is worth that price and
buys her for his herd of mixers with
out fully investigating the real value
of the animal as mixer. 1t is not
only true that half of the cows in the
country are not profit makers, but it is
also true that farmers are all the time
buying cows that have in them no
possibility of profit. How shall we in
duce farmers to get rid of the I'M
profitable cows? This is one OF the
great problems of dairying.
