Vancouver, B. c., Aug. 12.-It is
reported that the Canadian Pacific
and Hartman roads have entered
into an alliance against the merger
roads and that the Bellingham Bay &
British Columbia, which is to be eX-
tended east to connect with the Har-
riman road at Spokane, is also to be
extended to Vancouver.
When the news of the Bellingham
Bay & British Columbia extension
to Spokane was first made public, it
was expected that the western termi-
nus would be at Whatcom. Mr.. Harri-
man, however, is aid to have sent a
representative to this city to see if
sites can be obtained for terminal
and works on Burrard inlet.
Those who claim to be in position
to know say that the Union Pacific
will apply for running rights over the
new Fraser river bridge at New
\. estminster, the same as the North
ern Pacific and Great Northern will
do and will run line to Sumas, to
connect with the Bellingham Bay &

MEET AT ST. LOUIS.
Delegates Will See the Exposition
Next Year.

Washington, August 12.-The In
ternational Typographical union to-
day decided unanimously to hold its
meeting in 1904 In St. Louis. The de-
cision to make St. Louis the next
place of meeting was reached with
out opposition, all other candidates
withdrawing.
Delegates Gilmore of Montreal and
Powell of Ottawa gave notice that
those cities would he candidates for
the honor in 1905. They stated that
there is much opposition in Canada
to international unionism and cX-
pressed the opinion that a meeting
in the dominion would strengthen the
cause.
The union began it's session today
by ordering the removal of all circu-
lars and other literature distributed
in the meeting nall which does not
bear the union label.
The convention resumed consilera-
Yion of the report of the committee
on laws. The first proposition taken
M was a recommendation prohibit
| ing members of subordinate unions
voting on a change of the scale of
| prices unless they have been mem-
Ibers for at least six months. This
suggestion was adopted but the con-
yen.iOn voted down a Suggestion eX-
cluding from membership in subordi-
nate unions machine operators who
/ have not served an apprenticeship as

taken because the point is already
covered by existing law,
There was considerable discussion
on an amendment suggestion by
Delegate Taylor Of Tacoma, Wash.
for the recognition of the rule Of en-
ployng substitutes as regular print
ers. There was a recognition of the
fact that a better regulation than
that which exists at present is de
sirable. but the suggestion was an
tagonlzed as impracticable by the
law committee. and the proposition
was voted down.
The convention adopted al amend
ment to the general laws suggested
by Delegate Taylor giving to substi
tute printers the privileges enjoyed
by regular printers.
The convention then took up th'
suggestion made by the committee
on laws to fix a standard for th
| measurement of machine set type
but after extended debate the ques
ton was recommitted to the commit
too for further consideration.

degree against Peter MortensOn and
refused to grant him new trial.
Mortenson was found guilty of

The case attracted wide attention
on account of the prominence the

A Durable Whitewash.

Lime is always measured before it is
slaked. In receipts for whitewash this
is understood, unless otherwise stated.
The rule published was furnished by a
large manufacturing company in Ohio,
which uses it on the outside Of its build
iugs, and claims that it makes most
durable whitewash, mnch better than
the ordinary kind. To make it use one
barrel of lime (unslaked). Add while
shaking three pounds of glue, three
pounds of fat meat, Suet OF tallOw, lard
or bacon cut in small pieces. The heat
of Stacking will eat up and dissolve this
fat, which acts like an oil. Six pounds
of salt and half pound ofsborax should
be added later. Put bluing in when
you use it asin ordinary whitewash. 1t
is better to make this whitewash several
weeks before using. Stir it little each
day.

Making Veals.

The creamery is not the only profit
able outlet for country milk. Good
veals have for several years borne uni
formly high price the year round, aprice
that paid well for the milk used up in
growing the calves. While this may
not have been true in the case of many
Jersey herds with their small calves and
rich milk, yet the case is quite different
with cattle of other breeds. In the
making of veal, as with that of beef, it
makes a wide difference how one be-
gins. A cat-hammed Jersey calf weigh
ing forty or fOrty-five pounds when
dropped presents but little of substance
at the start out of which to build veal
that will bring a profit to the man who
feeds it, while with Shorthorn or
Hereford cross weighing ninety to a
hundred pounds there is not only weight
at start, but there is also foundation
to build upon. With such calves a
rapid gain in weight is sure to follow.
At the same time calves of this kind
are worth more and sell at higher prices.
As with the making of beef, to realize
the best money the calves must be of a
kind suited to the end in view.
Jersey milk. or any other containing
five or six per cent of fat, is not best
suited to the growing of veals. A milk
with no more than three or four per
cent of fat is better suited for growing
calves and will gain them faster thar
richer milk. Hence the ShorthOrn or
Hereford calf is good calf on which to
realize rapid and profitable gain. Hol-
stein calves are also rapid growers apd
make heavy weights. But the rapid
growth is by no means all due to the
breed of the veals fed. Shorthorn or
Holstein milk will grow calves faster,
and the animals will be healthier and
thriftier when fed on it, than if fed on
milk richer in fat. Such milk is ration
better balanced for the production OF
growth than that with higher pro-
portion of fat. Thus in making veals to
advantage it is important that both the
calves and the milk on which they are
fed be suited to the work in hand

Early Cut Hay.

The feeding value of hay depends very
largely upon its palatability and diges-
tibility, both of which are very material
ly affected bv the time of cutting, says
Prairie Farmer. Very much of the hay
is allowed to get too ripe before the
mower is put into it. On the other
hand, it can be cut too green. The less
mature it is when cut the more difficult
it is to cure and the greater is the dan
ger of damage by rain or of the leaves
becoming so dry as to break off badly
before the stems are sufficiently dry to
take up. Taking into consideration the
three factors above mentioned, the best
time to cut most plants for hay is when
they are in, full bloom. If left longer
they become less palatable and also less
digestible by reason of the increasing
development of woody fibre and the
various compounds of the plant being
transformed into more stable and less
digestible forms. A larger quantity of
hay is also secured at this time than If
cut earlier. There is little increase,
however, by allowing it to stand longer.
In fact there is very often decrease.
Cutting at this time is also decidedly
preferable to later, on account OF its
effect on the succeeding growth OF the
crop formowing or pasture. The more
nearly mature such plants become be-
fore being cut the less readily do they
start up again. This factor often very
materially influences the amount OF hay
or pasture that is subsequently obtained.
We have known farmers to advocate late
cut hay because it would feed farther;
that is, the cattle would not eat so much
of it. But all good feeders now realize
that to get good results they must not
save feed by having it so poor the stock
will not eat it, but by having it in such
condition as will induce a large con-
sumption thereof, for whatever is con-
sumed beyond maintenance ration, and
that only, is turned into gain. Even the
chemical composition of the crop may
be materially affected by the time OF cut
ting. An experiment at the Maine ex-
pertinent station with timothy illustrates
this point very well. For this expert
ment two acres as nearly alike in amount
and condition of standing grass as possi-
BILE were selected. One was cut in early
bloom and the other ten days after
bloom. The hay was stored under like
conditions, and on Nov. 2S was reweigh-
ed and analysed. There was differ
ence of 65 pounds in the weight OF the
dry hay in favor of the early cutting,
but when we come to the digestible nu-
trients per acre and to the percentage
of the hay we find very
marked difference. The percentages OF
digestible nutrients were: Protein 4.S9,
carbohydrates 4S7S, and fat 2.OS in the
early cut. as against 3.29 per cent OF pro.
tein. $50 of carbohydrates and Ito OF
fat in the late cut hay. This was an
increase in digestible nutrients in the
early cut over the late cut hay of 63. .46
per cent of protein, 24.0S per cent OF rat
and u .26 per cent of carbohydrates. 1t
will also be noticed from the above that
the greatest increase is in the protein.

Cider from Rotted Apples.

From Dorchester, Mass, l have another
communication on cider making. The
writer says: 81 agree fully with the
sentiment of your article on honest cider
and farm honesty, and when have to
face this problem myself 1 shall pursue
a policy similar to yours or not make
cider at all. 1t might be very truly bet,
ter policy for the mills not to accept
partly decayed fruit. At present fifty
out of every hundred apples are what
call rOtted; that is, decayed spot as
large as half dollar on each fruit. "
The letter goes further to discuss the
wholesomeness of cider made of decay
ing apples. My own opinion is that we
are not careful enough about the use OF
decaying fruit of any sort. 1t is quite
certain that apples or grapes affected
with mildew are sure to have germs that
are not wholesome to the human stomach
The subject needs good deal of study
more than it has yet received.
