Keeping a record of the product OF
each COW affords the dairyman an OPP
portunity of knowing which cows give
a profit A dairyman who had been
in the habit of buying fresh COWS to
replace those dried off commenced to
keep an account with each, and the
first year he found that, after charg-
ing each COW with her cost for food
and crediting her with all she pro-
duced, there was wide difference in
the profits. One COW gave a profit of
only 80 for the year, while another
gave 81 as profit. Selecting the best
COWS, and breeds two pure-bred
males he found it cheaper to raise his
cows than to buy them, although the
cost was more the first two years, but
after that time he found that two cows
raised by him were equal to any three
COWS purchased. Since then the quail
ity of his stock has been improved.
There is nothing that will convince
farmers so surely as the keeping of
accounts with the COWS, and it soon
induces them to improve.

FRENCH ARE AWAKENING.
As Extent of Tragedy Dawns Upor
Them Subscriptions Pre- Increased.


Paris, May 17.-Provincial France
seems now to have fully grasped the
situation in Martinique. Most Of the
towns and communities turnout the
country are actively at work raising
funds and voting resolutions of sympa-
thy with the sufferers. The government
is placing collection boxes in all the
postoffices. An official of the foreign
office said to q representative of the
Associated Press yesterday:
I'VE well understand that the ener-
getic Americans are surprised at our
seeming slowness in this emergency
to wait for the government to take the
initiative. Besides the magnitude OF
the catastrophe at first so stunned us
that we We're unable to think what
tc do"
AS yet none of the French papers has
haG special dispatches from Martin
ique. The Matin yesterday prints a
two column special from Fort de
France under date of May IA, entirely
composed of facts already published in
New York and England. Beyond the
Havas agencies colonial dispatches all
the news that France gets comes from
New York by way of London.
The total Martinique relief fund at
noon yesterday was 100000 francs. The
Bank of France and other financial
concerns are opening subscription lists
in aid of the fund and in most of the
cathedral towns masses have been cele-

st. Louis, May I'm the United

Adams rendered verdict In favor OF
Mrs. Margaret Roth. who sued fol-
payment of a s1o,s75 life insurance pol
icy held by her husband, Adam Roth
the wholesale grocer, in the Mutua
Reserve Life association of New York
The verdict includes costs. A short
time prior to his death Mr.. Roth re-
fused TO pay an assessment on the pol
| icy, and this act. the company claimed
made the policy invalid.
Judge Adams said:
MIR. Roth had paid many assess
ments on his policy and the net value
lpaid was sufficient to carry, after the
| lapse, for a period extending to the
! time of his death. Therefore, the fac
that he failed to pay an assessment
constitute no defense"

question in the house of commons yes

four first lord of the treasury, said it
was quite impossible for the govern

mittee had put the question down for
discussion on May 81.
Mr.. Blake, liberal, contended that
wherever there was a freedom of COM
petition in shipping the British beat
the Americans hollow, and the feeling
of the latter was one of humiliation.
The combine. he said, probably paid
twice as much for the ships as they are
worth. This would be seen when divi-

TRAINS TO BE WORN AT COURT.
King Edward Rescinds Order by Which
They Were Abolished.


London, May liking Edward and
Queen Alexandra held their third event
at buckingham palace last night
Owing to the recent order concerning
the dresses to be worn at court only the
ladies presented and those who pre-
scented them wore court trains. The
unique spectacle was witnessed last
night of many ladies making their bows
to their majesties clad in dresses only a
shade more gorgeous than ball gowns.
The question as to whether or not
trains should be worn at court has
caused great excitement in society here,
and the restoration of trains at all fu
ture courts, which has been ordered, is
great triumph for the fashionable
dressmakerS of London, who brought
such pressure to bear at court thru in
iluential customers that his majesty
yielded in the matter and counter
manded his first order abolishing
trains.
The court was the best attended and
most brilliant of the year. A large num-
Der of Americans, in addition to those
presented by Mrs. Choate, wife of the
United States ambassador, were pre-
scented. In the diplomatic circles Mrs.
Choate presented Mrs. Roosevelt's SIS
ter. Mrs. Douglas Robinson, and Mrs.
John r. Carter, wife of the second sec
rotary of the United States embassy.
In the general circle, Mrs. Choate pre-
scented Mrs. Foxhall Keene, Mrs. Louis
Chanler of New York, Mrs. Frank
Avery of Chicago. Mrs. Blow of Denver
ard Mrs. Newhouse of New York.
Mrs. Avery was clad in a dress of
white lace embroidered with pearls
her train was of white brocade Tined
with cloth of silver. She wore a pearl
necklace and diamond ornaments.
