TO DWARF COTTON BELT.
Britain to Grow Cotton in Lands of
Upper Egypt.

Upper Egypt.
London, Aug. 23.-The British Cot
ton Growing Association. which, with
the hearty cooperation of the Colonial
Secretary, Joseph Chamberlain, is
striving to render the British empire
Independent of the United States so
far as raw cotton is concerned, is now
paying special attention to Upper
Egypt, where, it is asserted, the assoc
citation can develop a cotton belt
dwarfing that of the Southern states
of America.
Maj. Count Gleichen, secretary of the
Sirdar of the Egyptian forces; Maj.
Gen. Wingate, addressing the associa-
ton at Manchester recently, said the
experiments now concluded on the
banks of the Nile show the quality of
the cotton grown there to be the equal
of any in the world. There are avail
able 100000 acres of irrigated land,
and the only difficulty is the labor sup
ply, the dervishes having depopulated
the Soudsn, but the completion of the
Suakim- Berber Railroad is expected to
solve the problem, besides furnishing
an outlet for the crop.

HOME OF THE wAsHINGToNs.
Agents of Property Have Heard
Nothing of Its Sale.

London, Aug. 23.-The statements
published in the United States to the
effect that Americans in England are
trying to purchase the house near Ban
bury, Oxfordshire. which was the home
of George Washington's ancestors,
with the view of transporting it to
the United States for exhibition at the
St. Louis Exposition, have surprised
the agents of the property, who have
heard nothing on the subject.
The agents recall that when the
property was placed in their hands for
sale a year ago. the same project was
mooted and discussed in the newspa-
pers but It was dismissed as impracti-
cable. Since then the agents have not
been approached by any American Of
fers.

NOT SPECIALLY TO LYON.
Presidents Remarks Applied to All
Southern Republicans.

Providence, r. l., Aug. 23.-The
friends of Cecil A. Lyon, chairman of
the Republican State Committee of
Texas, are considerably exercised over
the recent announcement by President
Roosevelt that he wished to warn the
Republicans of the South. that If they
wanted from him they would have to
get out and secure votes instead of
getting delegates to Republican nation
al conventions and looking for federal
offices.
Judging from a dispatch received
aboard the train to-day. the friends
of Mr.. Lyon seem to think that he was
made the special object of the Presi-
dents ultimatum, and was held respon-
sible for the political quarrel in Texas,
but this was stated to be incorrect, the
President saying that his remarks ap-
piled to all.

HORSESHOE ON THE ENGINE.
Mammoth Floral Design Fixed to

Willimantic. Conn, Aug. 23.-Presl-
dent Roosevelt, after spending the
night at the home of John T. Robinson,
at Hartford, to-day resumed his jour
ney through New England. His train
left this city promptly at o'clock, but
the early hour set for his departure did
not deter the people from turning out
in force and giving him hearty send
off.
The floral horseshoe presented to the
President by the workingmen of Hart
ford yesterday was placed on the en-
CINE. All along the line the small
towns turned out their entire popula-
ton, each apparently anxious to share
in the welcome which Connecticut Is
extending.
When Willimantic was reached the
President was driven to the public
square, where he delivered an address
from his carriage.

The Example of Paganini.

A story is told of how Paganini once
came into the concert room. took the
violin and touched the strings First
one string broke, and a smile went
round the room; then another string
broke, and there was more audible ex-
preston of mockery. When a third
string broke. many people laughed out
right at his discontinue. But Paga-
mini stood forth with his violin as
though nothing had happened and
played on the one string. and the peo-
pie ceased to smile, but listened spell
bound. Some of those who had derid-
ed him began to weep. and some even
prayed.
Many a man had fallen helpless by
the wayside when some great catas-
trophe turned the current of his life
aside. The brave man pushes forward
with one remaining talent and plucks
victory from defeat.

South was answered by "Just Before

ed and jeered the others music and
cheered their own until the stars came
out and silence fell.
Then, sweet and low, band far up
the line began to play Home, Sweet
Home" Another and another Joined
until all the bands on both sides were

SiIaGe as a Milk Food.

The silo is gaining friends every year,
and it will not be many years until ev-
cry progressive dairyman will put his
corn crop in silo and thus get the
best possible results from it, says Dairy
and Creamery. Corn is the cheapest
feed that can be grown in this country
and in the shape of silage is the best
food for dairy cows. Mr. D. M. Nc
Pherson, Lancaster, Canada, keeps
seventy cows on 125 acres of land, and
these cows average 1000, pounds Of
milk a year, and this great yield is
made on silage. Experiments have
proved to Mr.. Mcpherson that corn
fodder is not as valuable as corn ST.
lage. The difference in his herd amounts
to 500 pounds of milk day. In speak
ing of his system of keeping cows Mr..
Mcpherson says:
'Actual experiments have proved
that for every thousand pounds weight
of live animal twenty-siX pounds Of
food daily are required in a properly
balanced ration. That will give enough
as heat producer and flesh former
for either beef or milk. How can that
food be supplied at least cost? 1t is
quite possible for every farmer to have
each cow give 5000 pounds of milk a
season at cost of only so to 60 cents
per hundred pounds. 1 have reduced
the cost of producing milk to 40 cents
per hundred. Farmers are losing daily
what. if properly applied, means wealth
to them, and increase in wealth, if
properly used, is increased happiness.
The balanced ration that is costing
you a cents day per cow can be had
for 8 cents by studying out the require
ments of your cows and by loading
them both ways. Our railways and
steamships are on that principle. I
claim that cows should give 5000
pounds of milk per season. 1 feed
meal every month Of the year to my
cows because it reduces the cost to
keep and increases production"

THE TANK HEATER.
Warul Water 1'or Cows Is Cheaper
Than High Priced Feed.

Warul Water 1aoP Cows Is Cheaper
Than High Priced Feed.
The recent cold snap has well DEM
onstrated the value of a tank heater.
1t would be tremendous task to cal
culate the amount of suffering ana
consequent loss to stockman that have
been caused by water tanks being
frozen over and by stock being obliged
to drink ice water after an exasperated
attendant had broken the ice and fished
out the big pieces. Water is one OF
the most necessary foods and one OF
which both man and beast take too
little during cold weather. Warming
the water allows the animal to drink
all it needs and at time it is needed
without being chilled, says the Kansas
Farmer.
The temperature of cattle and horses
is about 100 degrees F., and this tenn
perature is maintained by the food they
eat, and everything should be done in
the way of preventing the loss of heat
by economically supplying an addition
al source of heat
In 1896, when corn was worth 10
cents per bushel, some farmers thought
it more economical to burn corn in
their stoves than to sell it and buy
coal, and they were about right, pro-
vided q ton of corn on the cob would
yield as much heat as ton of coal,
but with corn up to 70 cents it seems
eXtravagant to warm stock with 1t
when coal is only $3.50 to So a ton.
The time required to keep the heater
burning is very small indeed, depend
ing to some extent on the kind OF heat
erS. One. from which the ashes can be
taken without first letting the fire go
out is preferable The heater needs at
tention twice daily and need not take
over seven or eight minutes each time.
Six of these heaters, representing
four different makes, were started at
the experiment station Dec. 10. One
of them has burned constantly ever
since The others have had to be re-
kindled after each cleaning of the ash
es. One Of the tanks was Of galvanized
iron, and this radated heat so fast that
it was frozen over during the coolest
weather. The others were of wood and
did not freeze.
During the warmer weather Of the
latter part of December the fires were
kept burning, and we found that they
could be regulated so as not to over
heat the water and keep the chill off
and be ready for sudden changes.

Breed to Good Bulls.

Farmers that keep cows largely for
the milk and butter fat they get from
them should encourage the keeping III
their neighborhoods of first class dairy
bulls, says Colman's Rural World. That
more animals of this kind are not avail
able is largely due to the fact that the
cheap bulls drive out the good ones. We
have known cases where the farmers
really felt aggrieved because the owner
of really good animal charged more
for his services than did The owner OF
some scrub.
