Why Don't You Get Married?

why Don't You Get Marrieuf
 There Is renewal of the discussion Of how to prevent celibacy by enactment or laws" said a man who has never felt the halter of matrimony.
 This sudden activity of the gabblers is due directly to the action of thesUnited States government in promoting marriage among the Indians of the Ponca and Otoe tribes. The agent of the government catches the men who refuse or neglect to marry and claps them into jail, where they stay till they realize the falacy of Richard Lovelace's theory that Stone walls do not a prison make, nor iron bars a cage and are brought to more reasonable frame of mind with regard to their own welfare and desires. As the squaws seem delighted with the arrange ment 1t is obviously a just and useful one.
 Married women are responsible for all this talk about the scarcity of weddings in the country at large though here in Birmingham we seem to be doing well; a case In point being that Rev. Father O'Reilly of St. Paul's church last week married four couples in one day and SA6hN III tWO uayS.
 Tt is urged with much force that the proposition that the continued celibacy of certain persons of both sexes Is entirely the fault of the bachelors necessarily in- piles the corollary that no woman ever refused an offer of marriage, supposi- tion as insulting to womanhood as the whole argument Is impertinent and med dlesome. Similarly, any law aiming to punish bachelors for being so Is mani- festly unjust, unless accompanied by law to punish spinsters for refusing any offer of marriage
 Meantime there are g. great many young men in Birmingham who are doing ali they can to get married; and like the church organist out West, they oughtn't to be shot, for they are doing the best they can-to get married"

No Limit to New Idens.

There never has been a time when
the individual has stood for so muck
as he does at present. There has
never been time when individuality
and personal initiative brought such
amazing rewards. There never has
been time when the individual could
or did exert so much influence as at
present. There is no individual today
so insignificant that, if he became the
medium of a new or potent ideal, he
would be prevented by uncomfortable
conditions from expressing his idea
and reaping his just reward.
In all ages up to this man has been,
owing to his limitations of physical
force, plaything of conditions, slave
of his environment. Skill and intelli-
gence were but two of the factors in
his progress, bounded and restrained
by limitations to their employment.
Now, however, with universal energy
at the disposal of each individual, this
terrestrial sphere scarce puts bounds
to his field of nfluence.-Cassiers

Grain For Cows.

John Gould. who is called good au-
thority on dairy products, says that ex-
periments carefully made this year
have convinced him that a cow we'll
fed with grain all the season stores up
a reserve that enables her to produce
much longer normal amount than one
from which the grain was taken away
while she was in pasture, says Ameri-
can Cultivator. The grain fed COWS are
holding out much better than the 9th
ers in every case, and two of them are
now giving thirty-two pounds of milk
q day, while some of those that had no
grain while at pasture are not giving
quite half of that amount. Yet while
the pastures were flush the grain feed
did not seem to increase the yield or
but little if at all.
But he finds difference in individual
COWS. Some seem to need six or eight
pounds Of grain a day to give most
profitable results, and others do better
with three or four pounds than when
they have a large amount. Some Of
them do best on a mixture of corn and
oats ground together and others on
bran or shorts, but he likes little lin
seed meal every day. He believes in
milking out the udder two or three
times before the cow freshens and
gives q dose of physic few days be-
fore to prevent constipation.

RIGHT UP TO DATE.
(Benson's Plaster is Pains Master)

These are days of records and of the beat
ing of records. Benson's Porous Plaster, for
quickness of action and thoroughness Of
cure, has no records to beat except it's own.
Benson's Plaster, always the best, always
the leader, is to-day better than e0er. It
sticks to the skin but never sticks in its
tracks. It marches on.
The people not only want to be cured
but cured Quickly-and Benson's Plaster
does it. Coughs, colds, lumbago, asthma,
bronchitis, liver and kidney complaints,
and other ills approachable by an external
remedy, yield to Benson's as ice does to heat.
Neither Belladonna, Strengthening or
Capsicum plasters are to be compared with
Benson's. People who have once tested
the merits of Benson's Plaster have no use
for any other external remedy.
More than 5000 physicians and drug
gists (and thousand times as many nom
professional persons) have called Benson's
Plasters one of the few @ home remedies
that can be trusted.
Fifty-fve highest awards have been made
to it in competition with the best known
plasters of Europe and America. Better
proof of it's merits is inconceivable. Be
sure to get the genuine.

Holding Up the Milk.

This is a peculiar vice and one af-
fected by many COWS. Indeed there is
scarcely a herd in the country that
does not contain one or more COWS that
are given to the habit Of holding up
their milk, says Hoard's Dairyman.
Such COWS, as rule, are possessed of
a highly nervous organization. They
are quite apt to take prejudice to GER
tain persons as mixers, or if spoken to
harshly they can be easily thrown into
this unfortunate state Of mind and
body. The easiest and surest remedy
for such a habit that we. have ever
tried is to set a palatable mess of food
before the COW when we sit down to
milk her. Her mind is at once diverted
from the act of milking, and she let's
down the milk naturally and freely.

The dairy farmer as a general thing
should raise his own stOck-that is, the
heifers-says correspondent of Amer,
get the best males he can from the
most approved families or breeds and
then select the most promising heife1
calves from the best cows.
A considerable proportion Of our most
enterprising dairymen, those who are in
a condition to do so, have their cows
fresh in milk from September on dur
ing the four succeeding months. This
affords a good opportunity for raising
a fine lot of fall and winter calves that,
if we'll cared for, will become large,
thrifty animals, which another spring,
as the pastures become good, will be
fully able to care for themselves.
The raising of calves in this manner
is becoming quite an industry OF itself
where winter dairying is practiced. 1t
comes at a time of the year when the
work can be readily performed and in
the best manner.
To be the most successful in this bust
ness there are some necessary condi-
lions. These are comfortable quarters,
where the young animals can be kept
dry and warm. This is very important,
as they can hardly be expected to thrive
or do we'll in cold, dark, wet pens.
Plenty of bedding to keep them dry is
one of the requisites, and they should
be fed regularly with sweet, warm
milk 1t may be skimmilk after the
first few weeks or days even, with mel
Their too little nor too much at a time.
Where separators are used on the farm
or cold, deep setting of milk is practiced
these conditions can be successfully
carried out.
Where calves are thus kept in a COM
Portable stable and fed milk until the
following spring they should become
such animals as the owner may well
be proud Of But milk should not form
the entire ration. After few weeks
they will commence to eat a little hay,
and it should be fed to them regularly
and that of the best quality. If there is
a silo on the premises, the ensilage will
be relished and help to make a better
ration.
Not much grain need be fed, as it is
essential to develop the milking quail
ties rather than those of a beef tenden-
cy. A little bran or oats will not come
amiss The idea should be to keep
them healthy, thrifty and growing all
through the winter.

RAILWAY RUMBLES.

Our miles of railroad track exceed by
more than 10000 all the tracks of Eu-
rope.
The Dominion Of Canada has granted
SSS,SS4, 557 and 80, 725, 100 acres of land
to railways.
More than 100000 passengers a
year go through the North Union and
South Union stations in Boston.
In most European railways the prin-
cipal difference between second class
and first class lies in the color of the
seat cushions, first class being usually
red, second class gray.
The average cost Of the body of a
modern long electric car is $4,000, the
average price of set of double trucks
for such a car is 5000, and the average
cost of the motor is $1,000, making the
total cost of the car 81, 100.
Some of the Austrian railways have
followed the German custom of selling
numbered seats in the cars of fast
trains, both first and second class. An
extra charge Of from about 25 to so
cents is made for these seats, according
to distance.
The other day, just as train was
about to leave Kutas, in Hungary, for
Palfalva, an official appeared and put
seals on the wheels of the engine. The
passengers had to get off and walk.
The company was 296 crowns in ar
rears in payment of taxes. Next day
the taxes were paid, and the train pro-

BILE, sufficient supply of pure water and

Ohio doctor in Farm and Home. No
dairyman should be so negligent as to
be responsible for the transmission Of

berculosis is small compared with the
danger which may occur from unclean-
illness and improper sanitary conditions
about the dairy.

AERATiON OF MILK.
Effective Homemade Device For This


EAISctIFe homemade Dev1ce For THIS
Purpose.
1t is somewhat difficult to properly
aud quickly cool down warm fresh
milk when set in the large cans, says a
Michigan farmer in Hoard's Dairyman
For this purpose the narrow shotgun
cans, S by 20 inches, are far more pref
cradle.
1t pays to use some standard device
for aerating and cooling the milk drawn
fresh from the cows The aeration of
warm milk is very important when sew
eral cows are MIXED. For small
quantity of milk in shotgun cans a
homemade device can be utilized The
accompanying cut illustrates it's con-
Struction and use.
Procure a good hand bellows and
have tinsmith solder on a small tin
tube, with a rose attachment at the
bottom, somewhat like that shown at
A in the cut. B represents a brace
soldered on to make the attachment
more rigid. A clamp can be attached

Cause of streaky Butter.

The one great cause of streaky but
ter is insufficient working, which causes
irregular distribution of the salt, says
Hoard's Dairyman. Unless the salt
is added uniformly there is liable to be
irregular distribution, and as the salt
has a deepening effect on the color any
parts of the butter insufficiently salted
appear as light streaks. Distribute the
salt over the unworked butter as even
" as possible and work the butter
thoroughly, and there will be no
streaks. A second working after the
butter has been allowed to stand a
short time is sometimes done to pre-
vent Streakiness.

Fruit Acids XIII Germs.

A writer in a scientific periodical
states that it is not generally known
that fruit acids are germicidal. ''The
juice" he says, "of lines and lemons
is as deadly to cholera germs as cor
rosive sublimate or sulphur fumes Or
formaldehyde or any other disinfectant
It is so powerful a germicide that If
the juice of one lime or lemon be
squeezed into a glass of water that is
then left standing for ten or fifteen
minutes the water will be disinfected.
It makes little difference where the
water has been obtained or whether it
has been boiled or filtered" AS boiled
or filtered water is not always obtain
able this is worth remembering.

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There Is only one way to cure Deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an infamed con-
dition of the mucous lining of the Eus-
tachian Tube. When this tube gets in
famed you have rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when it is en-
tirely closed deafness is the result, and
unless the inflammation can be taken out
and this tube restored to it's normal con-
dition, hearing will be destroyed forever,
nine cases out of ten are caused by Ca
tarrh, which is nothing but an inhamed
condition of tie mucous surfaces.
