TO REFORM MARRIAGE CUSTOMS
The Mexican government has just
begun q task of tremendous proper
tions and OF an exceedingly delicate
nature, that Of %suppressing the prac-
tice of polygamy and Of promoting
marriages. In many parts of the Re-
public there IL little or no observance
of the laws relating to plural mar
riages and In some districts there Is
practically no such thing Is the mari
tai tie. For some time the authorities
have been investigating domestic re-
lations In the smaller pueblos and
settlements and they have discovered
a state of affairs that Is appalling.
The recent taking Of the census IN
particular served To bring to light
many instances where the natives In
the mountainous regions lived more
like animals than human beings. In
some of the pueblos there has o
been a marriage in years. In the min
ing camps of southern chihuahua. not
more than 200 miles from the city of
Chihuahua, a hamlet was found
where, in the twelve families compos-
ing the population, there had been no
marriage from the oldest generation
to the youngest. Neither had kinship
been regarded and families had inter-
married until the people showed
marked signs of degeneration. This
settlement, known as San Felixo, is
reputed to be the most lawless in the
State of Chihuahua and nearly all the
serious crimes in the region a be
traced to this pueblo. The efforts of
the Catholic priests toward correcting
this condition of affairs in San Felixo
and in many other places have been
unavailing. So isolated are many OF
the settlements that communication
with the outer world is difficult and
%infrequent. President Diaz is person.
ally interested in the reform move
ment and 1t Is at his earnest request
that the strictest measures are to be
taken to check the evil practices. Not
alone in Mexico do these evils exist.
Across the line in the Mexican colo
MES In southern Arizona similar con-
ditions are to be found and the au-
thorities of this territory are just
awakening to the fact. Territorial Of
ficials are making wholesale arrests
and forced marriages. One Of the
largest colonies. where marriage is not
generally ~practiced. is neal the town
of Tempe. only a few miles from
Phoenix. Last week officers raided the
villages and since then fifty marriages
have taken place among the inhabi-
tants of the village.

any more fighting until next fall. He
gives as his reasons that he does not
rare to take any chances OF hurting his
reputation by fighting top-notchers at
the present time. There is hardly any
9ne who will accuse Hart Of not being
game. and 1t looks as though he is do
Ing the proper thing In taking a rest
after making such a creditable record
tor himself In such a short space of
time. He Is said to be a hard worker
In training and a lad who takes great
pride In his profession. He should
give a grand account Of himself when
the proper time come. Hart had a
chance to tackle kid" Mccoy, but
modestly declined. saying he was too
recently out Of the kindergarten to
run up against such a hard PROPOSE
ton.

MCCOY AND

The Louisville authorities having sat
down on the proposed match between
kid" Mccoy and Peter Maher, it is
extremely unlikely that the two men
will be seen in the ring, at least not
for a long time. The principal reason,
1t is said, for stopping the contest was
that the Louisville officials had a sus-
picion that all would not be above
board. This came about through Nc
Coy's alleged iasco in New York with
Corbett, but which both men declare
was a square battle. Mccoy has lost
the great hold he had on the public
heart and 1t will be hard work sor him
to win 1t back again.

Every year dairymen and butter and
cheesemakers are becoming better
posted and no is working to this
end with better results than the dairy
associations and schools. These agen-
cies, which are similar to influences In
other states. are helping to lift the pro-
fession to a more dignihed position

Improvements in Dairy Methods.
r. A. Pearson of the Department of
Agriculture at Washington, says:
The dairy industry has not been
backward In making changes In the
past few decades. This is a fact of
common observation, and 1t is plainly
shown by statistics. In 1860 the cheese
output of the country was about 100,-
000. 900 pounds and only a small part
Of this was made in the Ave factories
then in existence. 1t Is estimated that
the census just completed will show
that the amount of cheese made In the
United States has increased to 300. 000.-
600 pounds, So per cent of 1t now being
made in factories. Thus we see that in
cheesemaking the change from farm to
factory methods has been almost COM
plete. In 1860 the butter output was
nearly AGO, 000, 900 pounds, all Of which
was made on farms. 1t is believed the
last census will show the annual output
Of butter to have increased to 1,400,-
000, 900 pounds, one-ffth Of which was
made in factories, There is yet an i'm
mense amount of farm dairy butter on
our markets and much of it is sold at
a low price, which means a tremendous
loss to those who make it. High grade
butter Is made in some farm dairies,
but a large part Of farm dairy butter.
packed in various forms is purchased
by dealers for renovation.
Every dairyman is more or less ia
miliar with changes in apparatus and
methods which have been made In his
W line of work. The method of but
termaking is being almost revolution
lied by the centrifugal cream separa-
tor, the Babcock tester and new meth
DDS Of ripening cream.
With a few notable exceptions, there
has recently been but little change in
the method of supplying milk for city
use. We think that the system of SUI
pervising city milk supply. as followed
In some cities. is radically wrong. Milk
consumers are often informed through
the public press that certain dealers
have been prosecuted for selling adul-
terated. preserved or otherwise impure
milk and they get 80 much informa-
tion Of this kind that they are led to
believe that milk is a dangerous article
Of food and should be avoided as much
as possible. It seems to US entirely
practicable to give prominence to the
well-conducted diaries, SO that the
public will also be occasionally re-
minded that 1t is possible to obtain
pure milk, In doing this. 1t Is not
necessary to lessen the vigilance owe,
the dishonest dealers.

h Relation of Feed to the Flavor Of
Eggs.
FARMERS Bulletin 122, u. s. Depart
ment Of ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
VINO . many eggs and all who habit
ually eat them boiled know that there
Is much difference In the flavor OF even
those which are undeniably fresh
There is a very general belief that the
flavor Is influenced by the feed which
the hens receive and that materials
possessing strong ~flavors. like onions.
turnips. ETC., impart an injurious ia
vor to the eggs. The truth Of this be-
lief was shown by recent experiments
at the North Carolina Station.
Chopped wild onion tops and bulbs
were fed to hens and the length OF
time before there was q change In the
flavor Of the eggs was noted, az we'll rs
the length of time which must elapse
after onion feeding was discontinued
before the very Objectionable flavor
would disappear. At the beginning OF
the trial . half unc of chopped
onion tops per head daily was fed 10
IL hens Of different breeds. Repeated
tests did not show any onion flavor In
the eggs until the fifteenth day. when
1t was distinctly noticeable. The
amount Of onion fed was doubled Tor
four days and then discontinued. The
eggs laid while the larger amount OF
onion was fed were SO strongly ma
vored that they could not be used.
After disseminating the feeding OF
onions the flavor became less notice
able and in a week the eggs were OF
normal flavor. The main point brought
out by the tests was that flavor can
be fed into the eggs. Therefore 1t ap-
pears that to insure finely favored
eggs 1t Is necessary to restrict runs 30
that no considerable amount OF food
which will produce badly favored eggs
can be obtained.
Some years ago the New York Cor
nell station. in studying the effect OF
heterogeneous VS.. carbonaceous food Tor
poultry. reported observations on the
effect of the different rations on the
flavor of the eggs. One lot Of fowls
was fed q mixture of wheat shorts, cot
ton-seed meal and skim milk; another
lot cracked corr and corr dough. The
former ration contained much more
nitrogen than the latter. The hens
fed corn laid fewer eggs than those fed
the heterogeneous ration. but the eggs
were larger. The eggs produced by
the heterogeneous ration were Of a dis
agreeable flavor and smell, had a
small yolk, and did not keep well. The
flesh of the poultry fed this ration,
however. was darker, more s%ucculent
and tender than that OF the fowls fed
the carbonaceous ration.
These experiments also show that
the food has a marked effect on the
flavor of eggs. The general experience
Of poultry raisers is that heterogeneous
rations are more profitable to feed
since they produce a larger number Of
eggs. In view of the fact that such a
ration, If too rich in nitrogen, may
produce eggs Of unpleasant flavor. 1t
would seem advisable to note the eff
feet Of any ration fed upon flavor, and
modify 1t, II the eggs are found to be
inferior in this respect--C. F. Lang
worthy.
