OPPOSE MACHINES.
Milk Handlers Look With Disfavor
ON Hand SeparatOrs.

The battle between whole milk and
farm separator creameries is growing
warm in some places, says A. E. An
derson Of Iowa in The Creamery Jour-
nal. The farmers who hold shares in
creameries, but who prefer to buy hand
machines and skim at home, are often
forced to pay as much for hauling their
cream to the creamery as they would
have to pay for hauling the whole milk
! from which their cream has been tax
en-. Thus where they pay 10 cents per
100 for the hauling of milk they are
forced to pay 40 cents per 100 for the
hauling of cream.
Still the farmers go right on and buy
farm machines, which is evidence to
me that the farmers consider the home
skimmilk Of enough or more value for
feeding purposes to pay the difference.
In localities where routes have been in
! existence for years and where the haul
ers rely thereon for a living the haul
erS naturally become strong partisans
in favor Of the whole milk system and
fight hard against the introduction of
farm machines. Yet the hand ma
chimes are gaining steadily.
One farmer in Chickasaw county, Ia,
told me recently he would submit to
the extra charges for hauling Of his
cream this season, but that would be
the last. He would figure some way to
get his cream hauled as cheaply per
pound as the whole milk is hauled.
Yet, notwithstanding his extra expense
in hauling, he told me he was ahead in
cash every month this year over for
mer years from the same number of

Waldo T. Brown in Prairie Farmer
has the following to say about cement
floors: l write from the standpoint of
experience on this subject, as it is now
about ten years since I put in my first
stable floor of cement, and I had been
watching and inspecting cement floors
in stables for several years before lay
ing mine. There is no comparison for
durability between q cement floor and
wood floor, as I believe the former will
last without repairs for 100 years if
made of the best material and properly
laid down, while | have rarely been
able to get a plank floor that would last
ten years, and unless made Of the best
oak lumber it usually begins to give
way in half that time. There are
other advantages in the cement floor
besides it's durability, one of which is
that by it's use all Of the liquid manure
is saved, and another and still more
important is that there will be no foul
odors in the stable with this kind of a
floor, for the cement will not absorb a
particle Of urine, and if cleaned as it
should be every day and a little fresh
bedding added the air of the stable will
remain pure and sweet. What I say
applies only to floors made of portland
cement.
%~"> Farm Fences.
Bad fences have been a trouble to
every rural community from the earli-
est history to the present day. Neigh
bOrhOod rows and feuds and aggravat-
ing litigation and even bloodshed have
resulted from defective fences. Wood
en- fences, whether of rails, poles or
boards, are a standing menace to the
public peace wherever they exist, and
but little better is a wire fence that
does not effectively serve it's purpose
There are nowadays a large number Of
patterns of wire fences ready made
and sold in rolls ready to be unrolled
and nailed to posts Some of these are
good, and some are better, and some
are almost perfect A really good wire
fence may cost more to begin with than
a wooden one, but on account Of it's
durability alone it is far cheaper.
Dark Stables.
Dark stables are as injurious to COWS
or horses as a dungeon is to man.
1t is the basement barns for milk cows
that have developed tuberculosis to
such an alarming extent In the south
west there is no necessity for base
ment barns, and as far as we know
they do not exist, says Farm and
Ranch. But we have seen many sta
bles that were almost as dark as Egypt
on cloudy day. These may not be SO
bad as easements, but they are bad
enough Sunshine is natures great vi
talizer and disinfectant, and men and
animals should have it in large guam

Repentance and faith are matters OF the
intellect and heart, and something more
is required, an act to complete the trans
action between God and man. This act
concentrates his faith and repentance
and expresses it. So we have Sacraments,

lives in two worlds. the natural and the
spiritual, and the outward act expresses
the inward idea of truth. So God In

so that there may be as little canvass
ing as possible. The various candi-5
dates will not have time, even IL they
have the inclination TO give close study
TO the questions Which will come be-
fore the convention until after the pri-
mary election shall have been held
and the delegates nominated. We
think. therefore, that the primary
should be held at the earliest practi-
cable moment and the selections made
so that those who are to represent us
in the convention may have plenty OF
time before the convention meets to
prepare themselves thoroughly for the
work. The delegates should study the
principles of organic law ana const'-
tutional government. they should care
fully read the history of constitutional
conventions. and especially should
they study the debates before the Viz
GINA Convention OF 1929 and other
conventions which followed. But that
is not enough. They Should also take
up the latest constitutions of the most
progressive States in the Union, and SO
be prepared to give Virginia Consti-
tuition which shall be in keeping with
thcsSpirit and progress Of the age. Our
present system of government IS IL
some respects antiquated and nonsult-
ed to these times. We believe that 1t
would be worth 4 great deal TO the ma
terial interests Of Virginia if our new
Constitution should prove to be thor
ouglly up-to-date document.
We say that the delegates ought to
begin to study all these questions long
before the convention meets, and hence
we think that it will be better to elect
the delegates as soon as practicable.
