From Bryan's Pen.
The Commonerl.

1t appears that the republican
party has also given a new defni.
ton to reciprocity"
Is it good democratic policy to
unite on principles that meet with
the cordial endorsement of repub-
lican organs?
A democratic platform, promul-
gated by democrats, and adhered
to by candidates known to he
staunch democrats will bring
about harmony.
The Filipinos enjoy all the
rights and privileges of American
citizens with the exception of re-
lief by habeas corpus, trial by ju-
ry, representation, right to keep
arms, right of petition, franchise,
citizenship and other minor things
too numerous to mention.
The Pennsylvania railroad has
issued an order prohibiting kiss
ing in its depots. The Pennsylva-
MIA railroad may issue orders to
congress and legislatures aud have
them obeyed, but when it collides
with Dan Cupid the Pennsylvania
railroad is going to come out of
the trouble second best.
We have spent $20O,000,0O0 and
sacrificed the lives of upwards of
5000 Americans in order to adj
vance commercialism in the Phil
ippines. Since the beginning of
the trouble in the Philippines our
trade with those islands have
amounted to less than $20,000,000
Do the books balanceY
Whenever a democratic senator
fails to note the insults of a re-.
publican senator the republican
organs accuse him of cowardice,
and when he does resent the insult
he is accused of brutality. 1t is
unwise for a democratic senator to
waste time trying to please the re-
publican organs.

man pushed out for the Kentucky
shore. When a short distance
from the shore one of the men
drew his pistol and began firing it
in the direction of the tug. A
bullet from the pistol struck Mrs.
Sam Sturgis, who was in the pilot
house of the tug, in the back of
the head, inhicting an ugly scalp
wound. The bullet flattened on
the skull and was cut out by the
attending physician. Mrs Sturgis
fell over when the bullet struck
her, but two lady friends who &C

ton soon restored her and she ra-

skull was laid bare over space as
large as a silver dollar. and the
great wonder is that the ball did

Before the fact that Mrs. Stur-

report, the three men in the skiff
were Frank Moore an d a young

~ the additional factor OF succuIenf
feed. This is especially the case
when cows are on pasture, in which
case their digestive systems have
adapted themselves to the succulent
nature of the foods. In case of a
storm lasting for days, or of any
mishap that makes it necessary to
take the animals off the pasture, the
substitution for that pasture grass
or dry hay always causes loss in the
How OF milk and in the production of
butter fat. Every dairyman should
have on hand silage, sugar beets, or
some other succulent feed to help
out the pasture whenever necessary.
The Importance of this is shown by
an experience at the Arizona exper-
iment station, as told by the direct
or: The 18th, 18th and 18th DAYS of
November, 1900, were rainy DAYS.
From the day before to the day aft
er the rains the amount of milk de-
livered at the creameries fell off ten
per cent. In the same time the milk
from our own herd decreased 81 per
cent, and continued to decrease un-
III III mad reached so per cent. 1t
then took the COWS month to get
back to where they were before the
rain. The week of the storm and that
following, two of the six cows had
sugar beets in addition to their pas
ture. During these two weeks the
Tour COWS having pasture alone fell
off 46 per cent. in amount of butter
fnf civ 4, A L
teH OFF only 20 per cent. Here is
to be noted not only the effect of the
storm, but the effect of feed as well:
the cows having sugar beets during
the storm falling off less than half
as much in their butter fat as did
those on pasture alone.

turning them out TO drink at the
spring. We never allow our milch
COWS to drink out OF brook, as it is
unreasonable to expect COW to do her
best IL compelled to gorge herself
with ice cold water. In the fan and
early winter, when we have only few
of our cows calved, we always like to
take the chill off the water they drink
and give it to them I'm the stable: we
notice very marked Improvement
over turning them out. OF course,
where there is a large herd it would
not pay to water them in the stable
without one had the water right in the
barn. We water twice a day, and it is
surprising how much they will drink,
especially If some feed flour is stirred
in it. a cow has no filter in her, and il
the water is impure all the impurities
will go to the milk. Some of our ''bigr
farmers may cry 'egotist" when they
see this, but am in fair position to
know, as for the last two months
have weighed every pound of feed our
cows consumed. Also in the stable the
milk of each cow was weighed sepa-
rately and a record kept. From this
we could plainly sc that the day the
icows were turned out to drink, If let
for any length of time, there was al
ways shrinkage in the milking. If
the change was noticeable in our
mild December weather, what must
it be when the mercury is lowering
about the cipherl
Where there is a winter dairy of
eight or ten cows it would pay to have
a good water system, so as to water
our cows in the stable in cold weather.
Also induce them to drink as much as
possible, for when we consider that
milk contains over so per cent. of wa
ter, it is evident that our cows should
have lots of good, pure water.-D. R.
