FaPsssera' Batter.

1t is q pity that some Of the farmers
who have given up making butter
should have done 20. Well made
dairy butter b the finest In the world.
1t will keep longer, retaining Its origi-
nal flavor, than nine-tenths OF the
creamery butter on the market.
There are thousands of city people now
who prefer to buy their butter Of farm
ers and thousands more would be glad
to do 50 II they could. But what ad-
vantage would that be to the farmer.
II would mean difference Of from
three TO six cents on every pound
made. II . man has twelve, fifteen or
twenty COWS, this means fine addi-
tlon to the yearly income. And moro
of us would find this o fine thing to
reckon up the seasons work.

ABOU BEN ADHEM.

Abou Ben Adhem-may his tribe increase
Awoke one night from a deep dream OF peace,
And saw, within the moonlight In bis room,
Making 1t rich, and like q lily In bloom,
An angel, writing In q book Of gold
Exceeding peace had made Ben Adhem bold,
And to the presence In the room he said,
"What wfitest thou?" The vision raised Its head,
And, with look made all Of sweet accord
Answered, 1.-THE names Of those who love the Lord"
"And Is mine one" said Abou. NAY, not so,"
Replied the angel, Abou spoke more low.
But cbeerly still and said, II pray thee, then,
Write me one that loves his ellow-men"
The angel wrote and vanished. The next night
1t came and with great wakening light,
And showed the names whom love OF God had blessed
And 10 q! Ben Adbem's name led all the rest.

OIL FOR STREET SURFACES.
It Lays the Dust and II . Powerful
Disinfectant.

It Lays the Dust and II . Powerful
Disinfectant.
A correspondent contributes the fol-
lowing to the Bakersfield Californian:
Among the many advantages arising
from the use Of oil In the manifold
ways in which 1t Is being made to con-
tribute to the welfare Of the people OF
the state have never yet seen includ-
ed what, from one standpoint, may be
considered the most important Of all.
I refer to the increased healtmulness
that Is certain to be observed In those
communities where oil is used 40 Q
dressing for street surfaces.
The street has always been and, but
for crude petroleum. would always re-
main a thickly settled place which col
lects the dirt, the filth and tie disease
germ. only to turn them back into the
atmosphere bearing more Of poison and
danger than when first deposited, with
the result that humanity. cooped up In
towns and cities, has had to struggle
for life. inhaling air which is charged
every breath Of 1t with illness and
death.
An important change is about to be
brought about in this regard unw1t-
tingly and entirely without design BY
the discovery that crude oil viii lay
the dust more cheaply and more ehec-
lively than any other means The
method is being adopted merely be-
cause of these two reasons, but the
fact that the oil is one of the best dis
infectants known to science accom-
panies it and will finally bring to the
fortunate people who live in localities
where the modern dust killing method
Is practiced a greater measure OF
health than has ever been their. store
before.

One remedy or preventative is to I'll

One remedy or preventative is to tie
both hind legs together.
Another way Is To pick up the cows
right front foot, bend the lex up to the
forearm and buckle strap around the
leg as 1t is doubled up. The cow thus
has but three legs to stand on, and
canuot kick or step with the right
hand foot.
Still another way Is to take sur
cingle or strap long enough to 60
around the cows body. Put 1t over
her hip, just back Of the points, and In
front OF the stiles and the udder.
Buckle up pretty tight for the first few
times, aud later not SO tight. She can
not step or kick.

THE GREAT HIGHWAY.
Automobiles and the New York Chi
cago Road.

cago Road.
The owners Of racing automobiles
have brought that machine. which
might be useful, into such disrepute
that 1t is pleasant to find one Of them
engaged in useful public service. Colo
mel Dickinson Of Springfield. Mass,
left recently on an automobile trip to
Chicago which promises to strengthen
the movement for good roads. says the
Brooklyn Eagle. He Is treasurer Of
the New York and Chicago Road asso-
ciation. which hopes to have a line Of
smooth, hard highways connecting the
two cities. The distance Is some $50
miles. Of which only 800 miles are OF
good macadam. The association. which
numbers some 1000 members, will ask
the next legislature to bond the state
Of New York to build good state
highway, and Mr.. Dickinson seems
confident of state help In Ohio. 1ndt
ana he regards as the enemy's country.
There is no question that smooth,
hard highways would be OF immense
benefit to farmers and not be merely q
convenience for the owners Of auto
mobiles and bicycles. 1t has been
shown over and over again that the
farmer could draw four times as heavy
loads to market with the same span OF
horses over a properly made road AZ
over the average roads through even.
level country. The roads ought to be
made and kept In repair from local
taxation by the towns and counties
through which they run. But cooper
alton between such neighboring divi-
sions In the matter Is more difficult to
secure than uniform divorce laws
among the states or uniform trust leg
islation. One long. fine road as an OBJ
Ject lesson might be worth even state
cooperation for its effect upon other
communities.
II the automobile can be used to pro-
note interest In that movement. It 10 q
good thing. but farmers IRE not going
to vote taxes for roads which would be
practically speed courses for these ma.
chine wagons and on which It would
be dangerous to drive their family car
ryalls. Colonel Dickinson and his as
ISOLATION should take the racers Of
their favorite machine in hand. II
they could suppress those public nui-
sances. their good road movement
would thrive better.

NO HAZING AT WEST POINT.
Col Mills Reports on Military Acad
emy Conditions.

Col T. Mills superintendent of the L..
Military Academy IN his annual report
to the adjutant general of the army says
that the health of the cadets and the com
mand generally throughout the year has
been very good, influenza being the only
prevalent disease. The effort inauSurated
last year to combat malarial fever by de-
stroying mosquitoes has been continued
without relaxation and with excellent re-
suits No cases of this fever lAve occurred
so far this summer.
The discipline of the cadets, as man
ifested in their conduct and at drill
and in military exercises and attention TO
duty. is satisfactory. There has been no
relaxation of the efforts made to enforce
the regulations concerning haZlng, and II
is a pleasure to state that no departures
worthy of notice from the spirit of these
regulations have occurred during the past
summer.
In speak!ns of the proposed academy
buildings. Col Mills says that the act un-
der which these Improvements are TO be
made requires the complete plan to be ap-
proved by the Secretary of War before any
buildings can he begun. This requirement
will entail much delay in beginning actual
work. In view of the overcrowded condl-
tions of cadet barracks and the limitations
of necessary training by the inadequacy
of several existing Buildings, it is hoped
Congress will. when the matter is present
ed so change its action as To permit the
Secretary of War. after approving a gen
eral plan, to proceed with the construction
of buildings as he may see fit
An interesting and important work re-
Gently inaugurated should be mentioned it
having for its object the proper manage
ment of the forest lands of the reservation,
comprising approximately 300 acres. The
forests are in poor condition. up to this
time no systematic plan having been fol-
lowed to care for them or to promote the
growth of desirable varieties of trees and
prevent damage of fires. A working plan
of management is now being prepared I'M
der the general direction of Mr.. Clifford
Pinchot of the bureau of forestry Depart
ment of Agriculture. The plan VIII include
an accurate statement of the eXiS ing Spe-
cies of trees. the rate of growth of the most
important varieties. with advice for their
management and recommendations for pro-
lection from fires and other dangers. When
the plan is Systematically followed. not
only will our woodlands be improved and
made more attractive, but their productive
ness watersheds and in firewood be
greatly increased.
The acquisition. under authority given in
the last Military Academy appropriation
bill, of the Dassor tract of land. compris-
ing about go aces adds "A very desirable
extension to the southern part of the
reservation. II win be a wise policy Col
Mills believes, to acquire property. when 1t
can be had at fair value so that ulti-
mately the government lands may extend
to the natural southern boundary the High
land Falls brook.

SENTENCE TOO HARSH.
Dishonorable Discharge Should Be In
aictcd Only in Grave Gases.

Gen. Chaffee, commanding the Depart
ment, made some interesting comments on
the general subject of punishments i'm
posed by courts-martial in the cases of en-
listed men. His remarks we're provoked by
the sentence imposed in the case of Private
Max Winkler. Hospital Corps, who was
convicted, at Fort II. G.. Wright New Nork
of absence without leave. and sentenced to
be dishonorably discharged, to forfeit pay
and allowances, and to confinement at hard
labor for nine months.
in the foregoing case says Gen. Chat
fee, 'the infractions of discipline of which
the accused was found guilty are not SO
serious as to warrant dishonorable dis
charge. nor is there anything in the record
to indicate that he Is not amenabie to dis
ciplnary measures He has been a soldier
for more than two years, and during the
past year has been tried but once. for a
slight Offense, by summary court-inartial.
THE tendency of courts-martial to
tence soldiers to dishonorable discharge
when other disciplinary measures would
answer does not meet with the approval
of the department commander. Ordinarily
dishonorable discharge should be included
in the sentence of a general court-martial
in those cases when grave military Of
fense has been committed or when the con-
duct of the accused points conclusvely to
morbid viciousneSS confirmed criminal
ity or where by reason of evidence of fire.
quent previous convictions by cOurtS-mar-
tial, it appears the accused has lost his
Self-reSpect, and with 1t his usefulness as
soldier
None of these conditions exist in the
present case. and in the opinion of the re-
viewing authority sufficient punishment
for the offenses committed would be con-
firement at hard labor for two months and
forfeiture of ten 00) dollars of his pay per
month for two months; therefore. the dis
honorable discharge is remitted, the con-
finement reduced to two months and the
forfeiture reduced to ten CO dollars of his
pay per month for two months. AS miti-
gated. the sentence will be duly executed
The prisoner will serve the Germ of confnei
ment at his station"
