A BRUTAL HUNGARIAN'S ACT.
Whips His Nine-year Old Child With
Strap and Buckle. Child
Nav DIE

A horrible case of cruelty is that re-
ported from Rockaway which may
result in the death of the child
of Steve Musack, a Hungarian, who is
said to have beaten his little nine-year
old boy last Friday with leather
belt, on the end of which was a brass
buckle, until the boy fell upon the
floor unconscious. He then secured
what money there was in the house and
fed. The boy had accidentally broken
a bottle of perfume. This angered the
father and he told the boy he would
punish him severely. The brutal
Hungarian tied the little fellows
hands behind his back and began
lashing him with the strap. Each
blow brought a fresh stream of blood
from the child's body. One eye was
fearfully lacerated, deep gashes were
cut in the head, and the boys hands
were bruised and cut in many places
from the blows of the brass buckle.
For several hours the poor lad was
left lying upon the floor, when the
fathers outrageous brutality was
learned of by neighbors who sent
for physician. The doctor found the
child suffering from conclusion of the
brain and held out but little hope
for his recovery. Yesterday it was
reported the child died. This was
found to be untrue, but it is said the
boy has small chance of recovery.
The police have been notified to look
out for Musack, but it is believed he
has fled to the old country.
WILL CONDEMN THE LANDS
tension of Erie Branch to THIS City.
Last Saturday morning former
Judge Cutler, counsel for the Whip
pany and Passaic River railroad, made
application before Judge Garretson
for the appointment of commissioners
to assess the value of the lands of
Andrew Pagan and John F. Martin,
of Whippany, in condemnation pro-
ceedings brought by the company.
The railroad company are con-
structing an extension of the Cald-
well branch of the Erie Railroad from
its present terminus at Essex Fells to
Morristown, and have been obliged to
purchase the right Of way most of the
distance.
AS the survey of the proposed
route crossed the properties of Pagan
and Martin, these men refused
offers for their land and compelled
the company to condemn. Judge
Garretson appointed former Sheriff
Charles A. Baker, of Kenvil, Free
holder Thomas II. Hoagland of Rock
away, and Alderman Eugene S.
Burke of this city, and set June 1st
as the day for the report to be filed.
Work on the extension commenced
over two weeks ago. A Newark con-
tractor was awarded the contract for
excayating and grading at $l65,00O.
The line will be eight miles long,
from it's present terminus to Morris
town. A permanent track is to be
laid by the first of next December.

proved, has a much better appearance,
and looks more homelike than some
of those bare farms, and if you should
ever want to sell you could much
more readily find buyer.
The dairy farmer is, in a sense, a
manufacturer he feeds the raw prod
ucts of his fields into the COWS and
gets in return the milk The same
laws apply to him as to other manu-
facturers. If he can increase the pro-
duction without increasing the ex-
pense his success is assured. This is
a time of progress and advancement.
The dairy machinery has been greatly
petes with others he must keep up
with the times and use the modern
methods.
Chief among the improvements
for farm use is the hand separator.
With this the dairyman can separate
the milk before it has cooled and can
feed the skim milk while it is warm.
He thus gets the highest possible re-
turns for his skim milk and has only
his cream to haul. 1t is probable that
having a separator he feeds more
skim milk because he does not have
to haul the skim milk back.
Skim milk is much more valuable as
food than it is generally supposed
to be. 1t has been proven by expert
ments that it is worth from Is to 80
cents ner 100 mounds as food alone
But when we include the increased re-
turns to the land through feeding it.,
we see that the value is much greater.
If the calves are properly fed on it
they will sell for the same as others
which have run with the cows. No
wonder some skim milk calves are a
sorry-looking sight when they are fed
cold, and half of the time it is sour,
and sometimes they are forgotten en-

MILK A CONDENSED FARM CROP.
r. E. Williams.


almost every case, we see that they
are not careful enough to make sue
cess of anything. The secret of sue
cess in any business is to look after
the little things. Some people are
more careful than others, so they sue
coed while others fail.
The price of land over the country
is rising. Land that few years ago
would pay profit will scarcely pay in
terest on investment now. If we wish
to get that profit we must specialize;
the day of general farming is over and
we must give our attention to one
thing.
1t is natural for men to wish to get
paid according to their merits. Skill
gets better pay in the dairy than In
anv other line of farm work. The man
who can get the most return for the
least expense is the man who will
make the largest profits.
1t is a great advantage to have
ready money as the dairyman has.
He gets his pay every month, while
the average farmer has money one
other half This is not only unpleas-
ant, but unbusinesslike.
There are some people who say that |
in a year or two the dairy business
will be crowded and that there will
be no demand for their produce. But
some other fellow comes in and gets
rich at it while they are still undecid-
oil "a demand
for good butter, and that can only be
made from good cream.
Cream is the most condensed crop
that it is possible to get from the
farm. ton of cream is worth al
least $500, and takes practically moth
ing from the soil if worked right,
while wheat is hardly ever worth $40
a ton and takes S. from the soil, SO
at given value cream would be many
times better to produce and easier
to market.
This alone would be an advantage
for the dairy, but it is not all. Dairy
ing is the practical answer to the fer
tility question. There are many farm
ers who haul all their grain away and
sell IL, Keeping Ollly OhouSh 'e HoAiiS
to feed the horses and one or two
cows They do not realize that they
are also hauling away the fertility OF
their farms In a few years they see
that their crops are not as good as
formerly, but they attribute their lack
of prosperity more to politics and
whether the president is Republican
or Democratic than to their methods
of farming.
If they would give this grain to
COWS and young stock and would
properly utilize the manure which
would be left, they would not only see
the yield of their fields kept up, but
increased, while they would make
profit on both their cream and young
stock.
The plant and the animal are direct
ly dependent upon each other. The
plant takes the food from the soil and
builds it up so that the animal can
use it, The animal tears it down and
much is restored for plant use. This
is natures cycle, and the farmer who
does not arrange his products SO that
