Mr.. MOrehead
interviewed

At this time of intense local political
speculation the mouth of the Boss re-
mains as tightly closed as the lips of
the festive bivalve. The very sight of
a reporter is sufficient to set the facial
muscles and the lineaments of his coun-
tenance into SphinX-like impenetra-
bility. When he steps out from his
sanctum sanctorum il Is only after a
thorough reconnaissance of the premis-
es. The door. behind which is evolved
each artfuI move in the political game,
is slowly opened. A well-groomed
head wearing a nicely brushed greyish
felt hat is thrust out and pair of keen
blue eyes glance furtively along the
corridor. If the ubiquitous and all per-
in the throng that waits to pay or re-
ceive the coin of the realm, the body
belonging to- the head emerges through
the door.
1t is the Boss.
With every evidence of relief de-
picted upon his cleancut features he
shakes a hand here, throws a smile
there. and passes forth into the street.
This morning. however. The Herald
reporter watched his opportunity and
slipped across the dead line which
marks the division between the masses
in the corridor and the master in the
office.
The outline of the boss's back was |
turned to the intruder as he entered, |
but the click of the lock as the door |
closed behind caused him to whirl |
around. For one brief moment ripple

ace became as impassive as man
rho holds four aces after a two-card

BITS OF DAIRY WISDOM.

Keep the dairy utensils strictly
clean, but never put tinware into
scalding water at first. Vessels that
have contained milk should first be
thoroughly rinsed with water in
which a good cleanser has been mixed.
and lastly, after thorough cleansing,
use boiling water and sun the uten-
sis thoroughly.
There are two classes of abortion;
contagious, caused by a germ. and
the ordinary or accidental kind. The
latter may be caused by an over-ex-
ertion or excitement; musty or ergo
tized hay. or smutty, mildewed or fun
gus-diseased plants. Often ice water
is responsible, and great care is there
fore necessary at this time of year.
We have no oyerproduction, nor are
we likely to have, for many years of
bright. intelligent dairymen with
good herds of cows. Nor have we an
oyerproduction of good dairy prod
ucts. whether butter. cheese, or a
high grade of city milk Good dairy
products have declined less in value
by % per cent. than any other prod

eral decline in alues.-Barnum' Mid

cows were from the same locality we
do not know for a certainty. At lit
tie later period evidently cattle were
imported into Virginia from Spain.
These cattle were black The Dutch,
having settled New York, naturally
brought cows from their own coun-
try. Some of these are known to have
come from off the coast of Holland.
That was before the development of
fixed breeds even in Holland, but we
may fairly infer that they were re-
lated to the proge nitors of the Dutch
be.ted cattle. Delaware was provided
with cattle from Sweden, and it is
said that from Denmark were brought
the cattle that became famous in New
Hampshire Coming down to revolu-
tionary times we find that cattle had,
at that date, been previously imported
from Great Britain and Ireland in
considerable numbers. Some of these,
we know from tradition, were white
Durhams especially white Durham
bulls. The general mix-up of all of
these breeds, which subsequently took
place, gave us the almost endless va
riety of form and color now seen in
American cattle.

FEEDING DAIRY COWS.
The system I'm Vogue at the Mime
sofa Experiment station Is
Said to he Perfect.

The herd Of milch cows at the Min
nesota Experiment station is one of
the most profitable in the country. In
report one of the professors tells how
they are fed:
Few people have any idea how care
fully we watch the physical tone and
feeding capacity of every animal in
the dairy department of the univer-
sity herd. A stranger passing along
in front of the cows when they are
finishing their evening meal, and see
ing how clean they lick out the man
ger, not leaving as much as could be
put on the end of penknife, would
conclude that the cows were not be-
ing literally fed; in fact. that they
were half starved. And as con-
elusive evidence that such were
really the case, he would point at
the clearly defined ribs, sharp hips and
backbone, thin thighs and necks, and
probably remark that he would not
have such scrawny animal in his barn.
And yet, if an additional pound of grain
were added to their ration probably
half the COWS would go off their feed
before the close of the week.
Our barn is open to the public and
scarcely day passes when there is
not visitor there inspecting it. We
feed twice day and challenge anyone
TO find in the hangers of the 40
COWS a cupful of food, grain or rough
age, after they have finished their
meal. Once in awhile, one not feeling
just right will leave a little, but this
is removed at once, and generally by
the next feeding time she will need
the usual amount No food should be
left in the hangers from one feeding
period to another. Cows should be
kept away from food between meals.

EVOLUTION OF BREEDS.
Studying the Pedigree of Our So
Called Native Cows Brings Out
Some Odd Facts.

Tracing the evolution Of breeds is
Always interesting. Someone has
been figuring out the pedigree of the
so-called native" cow of this country
and brings to light some odd facts
that are worth recording. AS early
as 1911 dairy cows were brought to
Virginia from England, and 10 years
later there was an importation into
the Plymouth colony. This was in
1924. These cows were brought from
Devonshire, England, and were doubt
less Of the same stock as that from
which the Devon breed was developed
at later period. This probably ac-
counts for the predominance of red
color in the native New England cat
tie. Whether or not the Virginia

Perchance you feel like signing, dear,

And cheer some wayworn wandercr

Great blessings doth bestow;

A heavy load OF woe.
Alas! the many aching hearts.
Along the circling years
Though there be dearth Of all things else
Is never dcarth of tears.
Then put aside thy griefs dear heart,
Nor grudge a smile To dole.
Twill cheer thine own sad lot, and bless
As well thy neighbors soul
For there was One whose spirit oft
Was wrapped, methinks, in gloom.
Before Him rose dark Calyarys cross.
The agony Of the tomb.
And sim He ever strove 10 cheer
The wayworn pilgrim lone;

From Heavens eternal throne.
IT'S not the costly gift bestowed
That cheers the aching heart

But kindly words and loving smiles:

CARE OF DAIRY cows.
The Animals should BE Kept in Clean,
Dry Stables and Fed Well
and Regularly.

Whenever a COW iskept for milk there
are a few things that should never be
lost sight of. To the man with Few
cows and little money they are more
important than to the rich man with
many cows and more money. 1t should
always be the aim of the owner TO Sc
cure the largest possible amount of
butter fat (because this is the only
true measure Of the value of milk with
the minimum amount of expense, in
Guiding time, food and capital invested.
The cows should be comfortable,
healthy and vigorous, able to consume,
properly digest and assimilate food for
Ter support and large surplus for
milk. The profit in dairying is always
measured by this surplus Moderate
exercise, under favorable conditions,
viii contribute to the desired result;
but every effort of the COW beyond that
viii detract from the profit All the
energy used in warming up ice-cold wa
ter, every moment she shivers in the
cold wind, lessons the surplus of the

in such quarters a cow viii not do her
best.
In the exercise of my dutiesas q dairy
Inspector l have visited every class Of
stable, from the best to the worst, those
that we're dry, clean, light and well ven
tilated, down to those that were dark,
damp and filthy beyond description.
Hundreds of times have been met with
the statement: 81 would like to keep
my COWS clean, dry and comfortabl
but | cannot afford it." In these in
spections we note the kind and amount
of feed used, the cost, etc, and also the
amount of milk produced. This gives us
a reliable basis from which to deter:
mine the kind of care and feed and the
character of stables that bring to the
owner the largest returns for the time,
labor and capital and brains invested.
Right here it might not be amiss to
mention that it has often seemed to me
that great deal of time, much hard,
disagreeable labor and the interest on
considerable capital were wasted

Good Roads in New York.

There is every reason to believe
that Westchester county, n. Y, viii
shortly have 60 miles of macadamized
bouleyards extending through the en-
tire length of the county. The new
roads will be greatly used by coach
ing parties and automobiles, and
many Westchester millionaires are
behind the good roads movement. As
soon as the legislature is in session
the good roads committee and large
delegation of taxpayers viii go to
Albany and urge the passage of a
general good roads bill which will
provide for. new highways through
out the state.

The farmers who supply milk to
creameries are usually paid in pro-
portion to the butter fat in the milk.
According to this plan COW that
gives less milk than another may be
the more profitable because her milk
contains larger percentage of butter
fat. but the COW that yields milk
largely also gives profit in the skim
milk, which is used for feeding pigs.
The dairyman who sells to the cream
cry is therefore interested in the
breeds that give rich milk, and it will
pay him to raise his calves from a Sc
lect breed, in order to bring his herd
up to the highest standard of eff
cheney.

Creameries should be so located
that drainage will be perfect. Then
the drains or drainage pipes should
be carried so far that the Stops will
go into some stream or onto soil that
will absorb it, At any rate the scent
from it should not get back to the
creamery 1t is better to so dispose
of the drain that it will be placed
permanently out of sight While the
creamery men are looking after the
sanitation of the creamery let them
be sure also that they do not create
