The English Buying American Cows

The English Buying American Cows.
The agent of large creamery es-
tablishment in England is In this
country purchasing cows to ship
home. He says that the English have
been for some time purchasing cows
In the European countries, but espe-
cially in Holland. 1t has, however,
bnen found difficult to secure enough
COWS of the kind needed, and so he
has crossed the Atlantic for that pur-
pose. 1t Is pity that American dali
rymen find 1t advisable to sell cows
to go across the water. We need in
this country all the best cows as
breeders. It may well be feared that
American dairymen will sell the best
they have in this line, as the English
will pay enough to make it an object
to do so. 1t is reported that cows
are very much higher in price in Eu-
rope than in this country, and that
is disturbing factor viewed from
the standpoint Of the American dairy
industry. 1t is to be hoped that this
buying will not become popular with
Europeans, as 1t pays the American
far better to sell the products of our
dairy cows than to sell the machines
that produce the dairy products.

the present campaign. IT it had not

say that the Democrats would have
gained large majority and would
have carried the States of New York.
Connecticut, New Jersey, Ohio and
Indiana. The settlement of the coal
strike and the trusts and tariff ques-

The Beef Trust and the Coal Trust
have infamed the minds of many Re-

certain that the administration by it's
suit AGAINST the Beef Trust and its
arbitration of the coal strike has
avoided the impending danger caused
