THE GREAT AFTERWHlLE.

All me! the things that We mean to de-
In the great, great afterwhile:
When our ship comes in.
We're sure to begin,
And We'll keep right at 1t. too.
Yes, yes. my boys, know 1t is true
That we mean just what We say,
But afterwhile Is a mythical place
In the realms of an unborn day.
The railway of life Is supposed to run
Through the land of this unborn day,
And the great afterwhile is a station there,
Where people do fine things, they say.
But thousands, my boys. are travelling this
road,
Whose hands are as white as the snow.
Who meant to stop off at the great after
while
In the years of the long ago
But somehow or other they never quite
reached
The place with the high-sounding name,
So they travelled along with the rest OF the
crowd
Who hunted for fortune and fame.
Yet fortune or fame ne'er came to Them
bows.
And. neither, will they come to you.
II you walt to begin, in the great after
while.
All the grand things you mean to do.
IT'S best. then. to begin right here.
In tbs land of the greater to-day.
And work while YOU wait,
For your ship might be late
Then you'd miss half Of life. fear.

QUALITY OF BUTTER.
Tests Made Mt the Illinois University
Station show That 1t Varies
from Day to Day.

At the agricultural station at
tached to the Illinois university, q
test was conducted last year for the
special object of studying the varia-
tons in the yield and quality of milk
obtained from a number of cows
specially selected for the purpose,
and the results obtained were very
curious, and in many respects very
conflicting. The experiment lasted
for a period of close on year. AS an
outcome of the results obtained dur
ing the period the officials having
charge of the researches came to the
following conclusions: /. The yield
of milk from different cows under
the same conditions differs greatly,
greatly from day to day. 2. The COM
position of milk is highly variable;
the ratio of the fat to other solids,
and that of other solids to water are
not constant as between different
COWS or for the same cow on success
sive days. 3. The percentage of fat
or of other solids is not always high
est in the smaller yields, but cows
that give milk with high per cent.
of solids generally show q low total
yield. 4. Fat is the most variable
constituent of milk, and it's variations
are independent of those of the
other solids; therefore, the yield
of milk is better intedx of the
other solids than it is of the fat. S.
As regards the first and last milk
drawn, the proportion of solids not
fat is higher in the first, but the pro-
portion of fat is decidedly greater in
the last. 6. Neither day time nor
night time is shown to be superior as
a milk-producing period. z. Different
COWS differ in their power to make
milk from food, and the same COW
varies in this respect from time to
time. 8. Aside from the influence of
food or environment, each animal ex-
hibits individual variations of her
own, and such variations tend to
show something like periodicity in
the separate functional activities of
the animal body.

PITY THE POOR BOT.
when He Tries to Teach the Calf to
Drink from Poll Johnny Has
Troubles of His Own.

The time of year recalls the dear,
dead days beyond recall when the
farmers boy taught the calf to drink
from a pail. The Britt ua.} Tribune
refers fcelingly to these strenuous
moments in the life Of our agricultural
youth-moments that teach patience
and kindly dealing with the dumb ami
mails. For the weaned calf is full OF
the infinite and eternal energy. 1t de-
sires it's sustenance nightly, but it
desires it in the way nature has
taught it to obtain sustenance. The
sight of the pail seems to fill the caIf's
mind with forebodings. The calf de-
sires to look up when it drinks. The
farmers son desires it to look down.
ward into the pail. The farmers child
must hold the pail between his feet
with his hands, using two other hands
to hold firmly the cows child to its
milk. When the calf humps it's back
and tries to jump, it is necessary to
hold it down with two more hands.
When it breathes hard into the pail
and blows the milk all out you must
twist it's tail with two more hands.
Just before calf bunts it wiggles its
tail. At the premonitory wiggle the
tail must be held also, meantime keep
ing the Calls head directed into the
pail. The Britt Tribune says:
"Don't get excited; stand perfectly
still, inspiring the calf to confidence
by your GOODNESS and sang froid.
There is nothing equal to sang froid
in the initial lesson, and without this
attribute the pedagogue is sadly ham,
pered. There are other requisites, one
of the chief ones being that the
teacher must know more to begin with
than the calf. By following these di-
rections closely calf can be induced
to fill itself with invigorating, life
prolonging milk in very few lessons,
so that it will run it's nose clear to the
bottom of the pail the first bunt."
When you feed calf it is better to
be alone. Especially is it necessary
not to allow the women of the home
stead to be present. The proceeding
sometimes looks like cruelty, and they
have other methods of calf feeding
that seem more feasible to them, and
they do not hesitate to voice them at
critical moments, thus shaking your
confidence in yourself and incidentally
shaking the calf's already small stock
of confidence in you. tbs an art-that
of calf feeding-that has not been
sufficiently treated in the bulletins of
the agricultural department.-Min-
neapolis Tribune.

Butter-MakinR Mt Home.

Milk should be set in perfectly
clean, differentiated place, where
nothing else is kept, and the room so
constructed that the temperature can
be regulated as desired. There should
be another room where the cream
can be ripencd and churned and the
work of the dairy performed. Very
few farmhouses have proper con.
veniences. The cellar is often used to
set milk in and the kitchen used to
ripen the cream and do the dairy
work; the cellar is all right if it is
not used as q general storeroom for
the house. Bad surroundings and bad
company are fatal to fine buttermak.

about revealing her thoughts, and hel
mother, being occupied with the prob
lem Of feeding the lion, failed to notice
the preliminary signs.
The distinguished guest arrived on
We dnesday. At recess time on Friday
afternoon Grace unfolded her plan to
group of excited girls, while Tom, on
the other side of the school building
was the center of larger and still
more excited group of boys:
Its the chance of lifetime said
Grace. "You can't afford to miss it.
Remember the time. Admittance to

"Three o'clock sharp" Tom was say
ing. 'Oh, yes, he'll be there, sure. The
minister's coming to play chess with
him at half-past three. He'd rather
play chess than eat. Oh. he'll be there
all right"
At a quarter to three the following
day quiet, middle-aged man in
glasses seated himself beside little
table upon the pleasant, vine-shaGed
veranda of the Barker house, quite OBJ
livious to the fact that Grace, fiat on
her stomach in the grass, was printing
along the veranda rail. in large letters
with white chalk, the words: 1.-The
greatest show on earth. Only two
cents"
A few moments later the patrons Of
the show began to arrive in little
groups of two or three. Each child,
after paying two cents to Tom, whose
box office was discreetly screened from
his mothers view by the large white
rose bush near the gate, paused on the
lawn to gaze for awhile ut the uncon-
scious celebrity, who was intent upon
a chess problem.
After prolonged stare, with min
gled feelings of awe. respect and Gu
riosity, and, above all, desire to get
the full worth of his or her money,
each child withdrew reluctantly to-
ward the back yard. Here they were
received by Grace. who formed them

This, thanks to Grace, was strictly
true, for she had talked of othing but

What? What's that? Oh, shake
hands with your little friends? Yes,
of course" said the novelist, reluctant
ly putting printed chess problem into
his pocket, and bringing himself back
with an effort to an everyday world.
'Why, really, my dear, am very much
touched. This is the prettiest, and
probably the sincerest, compliment l

The young conspirato tor had the grace
to blush at this, but she did not allow
herself to waver. She realized that it
was too late for qualms of conscience.

Poor Pasturage Causes Loss.

Poor pastures do not pay for the
reason that it is to the interest Of
the farmer that his COWS secure an
abundance of food at the least cost.
The animals should not be compelled
to work for their food on the pasture
by trampling the ground in the
search for grass. AS soon as a pas.
ture does not supply an abundance
the cattle should be taken off and
fed on green food at the barn, as they
will fall off in milk if the supply Of
food on the pasture fails.

BURD CONTESTS 1T.

A case will be hear at the present
term of court that has attracted much
interest by the peculiar defense offer
ed.
In February, 1900, the Conrad Ma
tional bank loaned Levi J. Burd, an In
dian of the Blackfeet reservation,
$4,000, taking his note for the same,
payable November 1, 1900. The note
not being paid at maturity the bank
brought suit to enforce payment. In
the answer to the complaint VIM. B.
Rodgers, United States district at
torney, as counsel for Burd, claims
that at the time the note was issued
Burd was full blood Indian and a
ward of the United States government
and that the money was borrowed by
Burd without consent or knowledge
of the Indian agent or any one else in
authority over him. This fact he says,
makes the note null and void. He also
claims that the prosecution knew at
the time the money was loaned that
Burd was not citizen.
The date for the trial has not yet
been set, but it promises to be a
most bitterly fought contest. Sidney
M. Logan is counsel for the Conrad
bank.
