The first general census IN Russia
was taken in January 1897, but-as
may be expected in such vast country
the difficulties are so great that the
returns cannot be vouched for as alb
sOlutely correct Compared with west
ern countries, census taking in Rus
STA is rather crude Prior to 1897 the
census had been taken ten times, but
this was to find out how many males
there we're who paid or ought TO pay
taxes The first census took place 50
far back as 1924, when the number Of
Inhabitants was set down at 14,O00, 900
In round figures; in 1897 the number
was given as 12s.OOO.OOO, including Fin

A Leaky Dairy
P. ". Keys,

A friend of a farmer in central Kan
sas while spending a few weeks in the
country made these remarks: There
must be a leak in your dairy. 1t is not
surprising that you do not prosper more,
such loss would bankrupt a man with
modern means" ooh, no!' says the
farmer, "there is no leak IN my farm and
especially in my dairy" "What did your
herd of milch COWS average last month";"
"Most $3.50 per head" was the answer.
"But we lost two Of our best mixers last
month from founder" ''YOur neighbOr
shows a statement of s16O from a herd
of 20 cows"
YES, but look at the bother he goes
to. He says he weighs every pound OF
milk from each COW and tests the COM
pOsite samples once a month and feeds
balanced ration, I think they call 1t,
keeps an accurate record Of all the milk,
feed and ali expenses connected with
the dairy. Oh! that is too much sugar
for a cent am thinking of letting the
calves run with the cows hereafter.
This dairy business does not pay. Be
sides 1 lost three Of the best steer calves
from feeding skinned milk and some Of
the others look as if they had tasted 40
days. OF course the children do most of
the feeding and perhaps they give them
too little"
1t is not strange that he was disguised
with the business. The dogs chased the
COWS home from the pasture; the milk
ing was done by the hired man and the
children who were too young for the
business. Often they failed to milk the
COWS clean and cared less. The help
often became impatient with the nerv-
Gus COWS which resulted in the laying on
Of milk stools or whatever might be
handy.
During the winter months the COWS
had little shelter and often drank water
through a hole in the ice at the tank.
Sometimes the calves got sweet milk,
got two quarts, sometimes eight quarts.
No wonder such results.
A few days later the farmer and his
friend happened at his neighbours at
milking time. Here they found things
quite different No dogs were seen about
the herd and the cows were handled in
q quiet manner. The mixers were
kind and gentle and each tried to get
most from his or her COW, and how
pleased they seemed to get a gain Of only
one fourth of pound. On the other
hand a decrease, the cause was looked
for and remedy given if possible; nor
did they see any kicking cows. Through
the cold weather they had good shelter.
A tank heater kept the chill of the wat
er thus the food consumed went to pro-
duce milk rather than keep the animal
warm.
The calves were cared for in a similar
way, feed and milk being measured for
each animal fed, and the farmer admit
ted that they were one Of the finest lot
OF calves he had ever seen.
What is worth doing at all IS worth
doing we'll.

Mexico is Becoming Americanized.


There is one thing" said DR.. Charles
Amezcua, Of the City of Mexico, that
probably great many readers do not
know, and that is how rapidly therepub-
lie Of Mexico is becoming Americanized.
Our people know of the tremendous
progress Of their greatss::5t5r across the
Rio Grande and, while they realize that
there is yet an enormous gulf which
separates the one from the other, still the
United States is ever an inspiration and
an incentive. We rejoice in seeing the
United States taking precedence over
the old world monarchies and do not
doubt it will eclipse them all.
with such an object lesson before US
it is no wonder that Mexico is also max
ing rapid strides along the road that
leads to national greatness. The coun-
try is awake, wide awake, and everybody
seems imbued with the idea Of a glOri-
Gus destiny. We are praying also that
General Diaz may have his life pro-
lOnged for at least ten more years be-
cause he is really the one great factor in
our advancement and as long as he lives
no one fears but that all will 90 well

A Magazine Thirty Years Old.

The Christmas (December) number
of the Dllineator is also its thirtieth
anniversary number. To do justice to
this number which for beauty and util-
ity touches the highest marx it would
be necessary to print the entire list Of
contents. It is sufficient to state that
in it the best modern writer's and ar
fists are generously represented. The
book contains over go pages with 81
full page illustrations, of which 20 are
in two or more oOlOrs- The magnitude
of this December number, for which
728 tons of paper and six tons Of ink
have been used, may be understood
from the fact that 81 presses running
IA hours a day have been required to
print it; the binding alone of the edi-
ton of 915,OOO copies representing DO
100000 sections which had to be gath
cred individually by human hands.
