1t has been customary for lone OF
the speakers at our dairy meetings to
compare the price of American butter
in England with that of the 'best Dan
ish or Holland butter" and say that
this was because Of the greater clean
illness in the European diaries. If such
talk has induced any Of our dairymen
or creamery men to take better care Of
their cows or to be more careful in the
dairy room and in the handling of
milk. we are glad Of it, says one Of the
dairy publications. Major Fl. q. Al
word sprung something of surprise at
the meeting Of the Kansas State Dairy
association in his talk on "Dairying In
Europe" when he told them that he
found about as much untidiness in Eu-
ropean diaries as In the United States.
Even in Holland, of which so much
has been said In regard to the cleanli-
ness of the stables, he found the aver
age COW stable to be poorly arranged,
badly ventilated. badly lighted and
very unclean in winter, when the COWS
were at home. The housing and care
of cattle in Europe. as rule, are no
better than in this country, and we
have individual animals in this coun-
try better than the best they can show.

Right Kind of Dairyman.
I like the calves because I like g6yd
cows and realize the fact that the foun-
dation of a good COW is a good calf.
Sometimes l come across a good COW
that can be bought at a reasonable
price, but the surest way to get a good
COW is to raise her from calf of
known good parentage. There are peo-
pie who yet believe they can feed but
ter fat into milk.
My experience, however. is that when
you have COW that gives blue milk,
blue milk she will make even on the
richest kind Of food and when it is
given to her in fullest supply, and
when you have COW that gives rich,
creamy milk that butter makers and
milk consumers like, rich milk she will
give even if she has nothing but corn
stalks or poor hay to eat Feed deter
mines the quantity of milk, while the
blood Of the animal determines the
milll's richness. For that reason it
does not pay to bother with calves of
blue milk stock unless for selling milk.
and hardly then, nor does it pay to
fuss with calf that for any reason is
lacking in individual vigor-T. Green

That Horrid Bog Hole.
1t is an awful sight to see dairy
cows come wading into the barn
through pond of mud and manure
tea coming up to the udder and wet
ting and bedaubing the teats so soon
to be stripped of their fluids. Say.
there is little poetry about the cows
coming home in the cleaning when
they wade through this horrid bog
hole. And the worse of it is there is

bling you of money and your cows of

Difference That Makes the Profit.
II my whole herd did no better than
the poorer half, my business would be
a dead loss. If, on the other hand. the
entine herd did as well as the better
half, there would be big profit in the
business. The education that comes
from keeping track of the production
of each COW is more than sentiment or
gratifying idle curiosity, said Massa-
chusetts' largest dairyman, G. 81. Ell
lis. at recent grange meeting.
Practice Economy.
Milk producers should practice more
economy in production and produce
more feed on their farms. There are
not enough silos among dairymen. not
enough accounts kept with the indiyid-
ual COWS, to make dairying profitable
at present rates.
Pearl of Great Price.
Some farmers wives can make good !
butter once week. 1t is the one that
can make good butter every time she
tries that is pearl of great price and
worth her weight in gold or gilt edged

PRICES VARY WIDELY,
Excitement in the July Corn Option
Continues.

E%SlkSshSHI III Ine July SoFn OPtIon
Continues.
Chicago, June 19.-The corn pit was
again the scene of turbulent mob of
grain spectators during the day.
Prices scared skyward under the
manipulation of the crowd that has
cornered July options and as quickly
dropped with thud. Every trader in
the pit was kept guessing as to what
would be the price at the end of the
day. Natural conditions were entirely
ignored. In the first ten minutes ad-
vances of 11s cents were made. In the
next hour prices slumped cents.
All sorts of conjectures are made as
to the final outcome of the corner.
Bulls let the shorts have all they
wanted OF the July corn and as a con-
sequence prices broke very raggedly.
The Gates crowd was supposed to be
heavy seller, but it's brokers bought
openly in the market on all declines
Excitement ruled the day. The ten.
sion was great and so nervous was the
feeling that fluctuations that ordinarily
would be considered broad, were lost
sight of in the great slump. July
broke 35s from it's top and closed 2
cents lower than Tuesday, at 651a
The corn crowd sold September wheat
freely and broke the price 1 cent
This brought dip in July to 71R. A
fair rally followed and July wheat
closed firm.

TROUBLE THREATENED.
Apache Indians Object to Cutting OFF
of Rations.

Washington, June 19.-The war de-
partment has transmitted to the inte-
rior department information that
trouble is threatened among the
Apache Indians on the San Carlos res
ervation in Arizona on account of the
proposed shutting off of beef and other
rations after July 1 next. The action
of the war department is based on re-
ports received from General Funston,
commanding the department of Color
ado, saying that the Indians are very
much agitated over the proposed &C.
tion of the government and predicting
that in case the rations are discontin-
ued the Indians will take beef and
other supplies wherever they can get
them in that section, regardless of con-
sequences. Governor Murphy of Ari-
zona is in the city and has received ad-
vices along the same lines. AS result
of these reports it is understood that
the interior department will suspend
the order of discontinuance of the ra-
tions, pending an investigation.

GENERAL DEFICIENCY BILL.

Grafton.

House Devotes the Day to Its Consid-
st,, Grafton.
Washington, June 19.-At the con-
clusion of routine business the house
entered upon the consideration of the
general deficiency appropriation bill.
When Mr.. Cannon, who was in charge
of the bill, was trying to arrange for
the division of time, he announced
that if he could have his way congress
would adjourn sine die before July 4.
The announcement was greeted with
applause on both sides of the house.
It was arranged that general debate
should extend for two and one-half
hours. .
Mr.. Loud (Cal), under the latitude
allowed in general debate, submitted
some remarks upon the question of
salaries for postal employees. He said
he believed that the government
should pay liberal salaries-as high
as private corporations but no higher.
Employment in the government serv-
ice, he maintained, had advantage over
private employment. A government
employe had liberal leaves of absence.
His employment was continuous
whether times were good or bad
While there was, he said, a steady agi-
tation for the increase of the pay of
postal clerks, railway mail clerks and
letter carriers the particular agitation
was for the increase of the pay of the
latter class from an average of 1913 to
$1,000 year. He declared that all
the circumstances considered the pay
of the letter carriers was the highest
for the service performed of that OF
any branch of the service.
