ATTACK ON CHAMBERLAIN.
Colonial Secretary Severely Criticized
by His Sister-jn-laW.

London, April 17.-Discussing the
South African war at meeting held
at Canning town, Mrs. Richard
Chamberlain made lively attack on
the colonial secretary, Mr.. Joseph
Chamberlain.
1T is all very WE'LL" she said, for
men like my brotherinlaw Joe to say
that farm burning is all right. but
how can he know about farms or farm
ing? Who was his father? He was a
little screwmaker, very respectable
profession, but it does not teach much
about farms. 1t is no good sending
out screwmakers or anything of that
sort. The war was not made for Eng
land, but for johannesburg capitalists
who could not speak English

Mrs. Richard Chamberlain went to
South Africa early in the war and re-
turned to England towards the end
of last summer.

BUTTER DOESN'T COME.
MILK From Farrow Cows Retards
Process OF Separation.

MILK From FarrOw Cows RetardS
Process OF Separation.
Trouble with the butter at churning
time may be caused by the milk of far
row COWS Or those long in lactation,
suggests a Michigan dairyman in Ma
tional Stockman.
One thing noticeable in such cases is
the trouble occurs. Where there are
ten or more COWS freshening at differ
ent periods throughout the year we sell
dom have it, and, while no one cause
will be found in every instance, yet as
a rule the difficulty can be traced to
one or two COWS, and these long in lac
tation.
AS is well known, as q COW advances
in her period Of lactation the milk be-
comes viscous and the cream globules
are not SO easily separated. It is some
times impossible to get butter to sepa
rate entirely from the buttermilk in the
case Of a farrow cow, as nearly every
farm butter maker can testify, for
there are few who have not at some
period had trouble of this kind in
churning.
Now, in a large herd there may be, as
is almost invariably true, one Or more
such COWS, but the number Of animals
comparatively fresh so largely overbal-
ances that the quality Of the milk is
sufficiently equalized so that baneful
results are not noticeable. In actual
test it will be found that where the
milk of farrow COW is pooled with
that from a number Of fresh COWS COR
siderable loss results in churning, since
the butter from the latter comes so
much more readily than the other. AS
any butter maker knows from expert
ence, new milk COW gives no trouble
when churning day comes.
In treating milk from a cow long in
lactation it needs dilution in order
more readily to set the fat globules at
liberty. The viscous, sticky nature of
it binders the process. Milk from fresh
COWS will do this, but water, hot or
cold, will be found advantageous if this
be lacking. One-third to one-half in
bulk, or even more will thin the milk
and assist in the subsequent process of
separation. When it comes to churn-
ing, it is sometimes a benefit to bring
the cream before souring to quite
high degree Of heat, say $50 degrees,
hold it there Is to 20 minutes, then cool
to 20 degrees or 50 degrees and allow
to ripen. The addition of a starter
from a fresh COW in the form of fresh
times be en- assistance also.

DAIRY SANITATION,
Cleanliness and Ventilation De-
manded In the Stable.

manded In the Stable.
Good sanitation demands a better
stable floor, one on the ground itself of
cement or close jointed wood, which is
water tight on which abSorbents can
be used and deodorizers as we'll and
stop the fermentation of the manure
in cracks and crannies of the stable
floor by perfect removal of the liquids
and solids each few hours, said John
Gould in an address before the Yer
mont Dairymen's association. For an
other thing sanitation demands more
light in our stables, more windows,
more stables on the south side of the
building so that the direct rays of the
sun may fall direct upon animal and
floor, less dark, damp, gloomy dun
geons for our stables. Sunlight is an
almost instant destroyer of disease
germs. Sweep the stable overhead
frequently, whitewash the walls twice
a year and have a dry stable. Do not
have pools and crevices with moisture
apparent in them. Use absorbents in
abundance and in addition to the usual
absorbents have some South Carolina
rock as we'll as some land plaster. Get
a few loads of road dust or dry clay
from some bank or well dried muck or
loan, and when the stables are
cleaned use bushel or SO in the gut
ters and behind the COWS. This makes
a perfect deodorizer.
What about the air Of our stable? Is
our stable ventilated? Sometimes this
matter is overdone with unbattened
cracks and wall boards suspended by
one nail, but in the closer housing now
so often met with there is often too
much restriction Of fresh air. There
must be menace to animal health by
the breathing Of the vitiated air. In
the burning of fuel in the animal econ
omy there must be consumption of oXy-
gen and giving off of carbon dioXide
gas, which latter falls to the floor AS
the cow lies down fully one-half of the
time she thus places herself in this low
er air stratum. Injury in health must
follow sooner or later from breathing
this bad air, and q sluggish, i'll made
blood follows, and many think the milk
is affected also, as there cannot be a
purifying of the blood, as there should
be, and sluggish blood might have it's
influences upon the milk to the detri
ment Of the one that consumes it.
To change the air Of the stable all
sorts of shafts, shoots, chimneys and
drafts have been devised. Some work
and some do not when they should.
Shafts commencing close to the floor
and carried up ten feet or more above
the ridge of the stable, the protruding
part made of galvanized iron to draw
the suns rays and make a draft, seem
to be by far the best.

There is more Catarrh in this section
of the country than all other diseases
put together, and until the last few
years was supposed to be incurabe. For
great many yesrs doctors pronounced
it local disease, and prescribed local
remedies; and by continually failing to
cure with local treatment, pronounced it
incurable. Science has proven catarrh
to be constitutional disease, and, there
fore requires constitutional treatment
Halls Catarrh Cure. manuf' ctured by

DUAL PURPOSE COW.
CATTLE THAT WILL PREDOMINANT
ON THE AVERAGE FARM.

Good Milk and Beef Production Not
Incompatible In One AnimaI-HOw
to Produce This Desirable Glass OF
Cattle.
At the winter meeting of Minnesota
stockmen in st. Paul Professor Thorn
as Shaw started lively discussion by
praising dual purpose cattle. Among
other things he said: Cattle kept for
meat and milk production or for milk
and meat production, as the case may
be, in my judgment always will be the
class of cattle that will predominant on
the average farm. Especially will this
be true of farms rich in production, and
more particularly will it be true Of
those large enough to maintain from
ten COWS upward or even a smaller
be kept upon the farm
There are several reasons why it
should be so, the chief Of which are
the following: Good milk and beef pro-
duction are not Incompatible in the
one animal. Growing animals for milk
bic consumption of all the varied food
products grown upon the farm. Main
tanning such COWS and milking them by
hand will be more profitable relatively
than growing beef cattle only where
the calves suckle the dams. Such
system of cow keeping is a necessity to
keep in equilibrium the production and
market values of dairy products.
Which breeds furnish those dual pur-
pose COWS? The Shorthorns do in lar
gest numbers pure and in the grade
form, for one reason among others that
Shorthorns are by far the most numer-
Gus. And the place for the dual pur-
pose Shorthorn is on the arabic farm,
rich In productive power. Second in
order come the Red Polls, not placed
second because they are in any way in
ferior to the Shorthorns as dual pur-

pose cattle, but because they are not SO
numerous. They are little smaller
than the Shorthorns and, in my judg
ment, should be kept so. Hence their
best place will be found on farms I'M
dulatng and with fairly good produc-
ton.
The Brown Swiss are also good dual
purpose cattle, with leaning to milk.
They have ample growth for beef pro-
duction, but their strong bone develop
ment is somewhat against them for
producing the highest class of beef.
They are large cattle and are therefore
adapted to conditions in which milk
production is abundant. The little
Devons are good dual purpose cattle,
with a leaning to beef. Their place is
on hilly farms, with proportion of bot
tom land for growing winter food
These animals, with their neat limbs
and smooth, ponylike frames, dress
we'll on the block and produce an ex-
cellent quality of beef. Dual purpose
COWS may also be obtained by taking
large dairy COWS of mixed breeding and
crossing upon them Shorthorn, Polled
Durham or Red Poll bulls from good
milking families. In two or three gen.
erations Of careful breeding the dual
quality will assert itself.
How. then, shall the dual purpose
COW be bred? Select large, roomy bod
led COWS. Secure bulls inclining to the
pronounced meat form to maintain
stamina for crossing upon the COWS.
These bulls should be from dams in
the near ancestry Of which were good
mixers. Feed the heifers in such a
way that their milking powers will
not be injured. Eliminate all milk pro-
ducers below the desired standard as
soon as the fact is known. Persistence
In such breeding will give the coun-
try such dual purpose COWS as have
not been seen in the land.
Eoards Dairynal recently printed
the picture of the brown Swiss bull
Me- Ohm, with the following informa-
ton: In reply to our request for some
specific information as to the dairy
points and dairy heredity OF this bull,
McJ John, Mr.. Inman writes us concern
ing the former that ''he has a wide
head between the horns and eyes, a
! very Gishing face between the eyes
and between the eyes and nose; lots of
room between the ribs and from the
ribs to hip bones; long, slim tail
with heavy switch; four we'll devei-
oped rudimentaries; a long udder
vein; loose, mellow skin; full, bright
| eyes; a good back, and a fine chest"
| He is. however, unable to state any
! thing about the dairy ability Of the
dam, most important particular for
correctly estimating his dairy potency,
but says the dam Of his sire gave TO-
| 966 pounds of milk in one year that
made $50 pounds of butter. Her
weight was 1850 pounds. McJohn is
only years old and consequently none
of his heifers is in milk and thus able
to contribute her evidence as to his
! merit or otherwise as dairy sire.
