The bonds for the construction of the long talked of Morning Star Rail- way Company have been foated, and are accepted by the Equitable Trust Company of New York City. Such is the import of lengthy document filed upon the mortgage records of Jackson county Saturday afternoon showing the bond issue to have been approved by the directors of the railway com pany and the loan to have been ac- cepted by the trust company named above.
 The first party, corporation with a fcapital of $3, 3,50O, 1000, has by action of the board of directors, under authori- ty conferred by the stock holders, ex- +ecuted a mortgage, conveying all their rights, powers, privileges and franchises, including railway con .structed or to be constructed from Melville to Newport along route described in said instrument, in lieu of a loan granted by the second party or Equitable Trust Company not to exceed S3,5OO, ,OO0, to be evidenced in the issuance of first mortgage gold bonds, in denominations of $500, bear ing five per cent interest, excluding taxation, payable semi-annually.

PANDEMoNIUM BROKE LOOSE.
Resolution To Gust Financial Agent Cook Stirred Up The Animals Stringent Game Measure
 Enacted.

Little Rock, March 8.--Pandemoni- um reigned in the house for short time Saturday morning, and the mem- bers and spectators had all the excite ment they could wish for short time before the noon recess was taken. Everyone seemed anxious to talk at once, and it was with difficulty that Speaker Moore could keep anything like semblance of order. The occa- sion was all over resolution intro duced by MT. Chapline memorializing the members of the state penitentiary board to demand the resignation of M. D. L. Cook, the financial agent. -' T
 The resolution was based oii the ac- counts appearing in the daily papers of the proceedings of the house ways and means committee, and asserted that Mir. Cooks own testimony before that body was sufficient to make his resignation necessary inasmuch as he had openly violated the law if what he said was true. e g-s 8ft@Vt'
 The excitement followed upon 8 motion to table the resolution and the roll-call which followed. The motion carried on the first ballot, but sound ling was necessary. The confusion which followed was of the most inter esting nature, and at times 1t was thought that it was hopeless. The speaker finally announced that the re- solution had been tabled,

Mrs. Haugiss was quite shocked by
the intelligence that the bank in which
she kept her reserve of pin money
had failed, but after the first gasp Mr..
Haugiss was glad to observe that she
was not seriously grieved.

Danish Dairy Cattle.


We may very properly inquire
countries which would improve our
dairy herds or be a valuable aoquisi
ton to the variety we now possess
Although others may hold kifferent
views, it is the belief OF the writer
that the only countries TO which any
attention can proftably be given in
this connection are Denmark, France.
and Switzerland The first named

world Of dairying as a national spec
ialty, of rapid development and OF
present high average production and
excellence. Here we find the Red
Danish cattle to be the standard stock.
and very satisfactory business cows

But they lack uniformity except in
color, particularly in udder develop
ment and other dairy points, and tn
the show ring the very best OF them
could not hopefully compete with the
best Of any one Of the four leading
dairy breeds Of this country, AS dairy
performers they are good, but not re
markable; the best yearly records the
writer has seen show an average pro
duction of 5000 to $500 pounds OK
milk per COW. in herds of IL to 10
animals Of ali ages, with an average
fat content OF about 3A per cent, an
equivalent Of 290 10 325 pounds or
butter per year. A very celebrated
herd OF 20 cows averaged 1850 pounds
OF milk a year. In Jutland there is a
distinctively dairy race Of sharply de-
fined black and white markings in APP
pearance reminding one OF Holland
cattle, and still more Of Brittanies, al
though between these two races in

Visitors at WinOna lake have not
iced that upward Of fifty mineral
springs there form drinking fountains
on the more than 1000 acres OF the
as ambly grounds. AT each fountain
lg provided a tin cup A year or more
Rgt it was discovered that the fire.
qu mt disappearance of the cups from
Eha springs caused much care and
trcnble. People would carry OFF the
cups, filled with water, and would for
get TO return them Every cxpedient
was tried to put stop to this prae-
tiee The cups were chained to the
rocks. but they were detached and car
ried OF, much to the annoyance Of
thirsty individuals who afterward
looked about in vain for the vessel.
The trouble found its way to DR..
Dickey. the geaius who runs the place.
He got a chisel and a bit a quarter of
an inch wide, set cup on a block and
cut silt in the bottom of It. Then
he took the cup to spring, left it
there and sat down on a neighboring
bench to watch developments.
Presently a cottager came along,
stopped at the spring to take a drink
allied the cup and started to walk on
with II. In less time than it takes to
tell It he discovered that the water
was escaping and had coursed down
his trousers legs and dlmmed the lus.
ter Of his shoes. Then he threw the
cup back TO its place and tried another
spring with a like result.

Inside Of half an hour all the cups
at the different springs had holes in
their bottoms. Now no one has any
further use for a. cup than to drink
from It and then to place the vessel
where 1t belongs.
The education of Winona people IN
TO the use Of the ieaky cups caused
as much effort as do some Of the many
other things that are taught on the
grounds. Ii some drinkers did not say
things that would not look well In
print their countenanees betokened
what they thought The posture that
some Of them assume to prevent the
water from dripping on their raiment
would furnish rare studies in attir
tudes. They incline forward 70 awful
angle and they look as If they wished
they possessed necks as long as 81
raffes. The women are Obliged TO
hitch back their skirts and the men
set their polished shoes as far to the
rear that they must hold on to some
friendly object to keep from pitching
forward into the spring.
These. however, are the experiences
Of drinkers only during the first few
days they spend at Winona lake. Soon
they learn how to take the "Winona
drink without allowing the water to
trickle over them.
ITS just as easy as falling on a
log, says Or. Dickey He places his
forefnger over the hole in the bottom
and. standing erect, quaffs the cooling
draught at his ease.

snraxinn Is Necessary.

In an address on spraying, Prof f..
NJ. Webster said The canker worm,
the tent caterpillar. leafrollers and
other native leaf-eating insects, find
instead Of an occasional wild cherry
tree, wild crabapple tree or wild plum
tree. whole acres Of improved varie-
ties of these, acres upon acres of
raspberry. blackberry. strawberry and
grape Grass feeding insects find
hundreds and thousands Of acres of
grassy plants more tender and juicy
than the natural grasses. Is it any
wonder that native insects. before
confined to a less number of less
fruitful trees, with an occasional year
that permitted almost no fruit at all
to grow, thus almost exterminating
them, should, under such favorable
conditions as are offered by our pres
ent system Of fruit. vegetable and
grain culture, thrive and increase In
numbers far beyond what they would
under less artificial and less favor
able surroundings? We first create
an environment, unnatural and vast.
ly more favorable than the original
for the development OF insect enc.
mics Of our crops, and bring about the
very conditions that these insects are
intended to prevent. and ahen wonder
why it is that they do what is the
most natural things IN the world for
them-feed and breed in the midst OF
plenty. 1t has always seemed to me
that the fruit grower who planted out
his orchards, vineyards and berry
fields, and gave them no protection
from their natural enemies, was do
ing about what a commanding general
would do If he we're to send a divi
sion Of his army into the enemy
country and not support it with other
troops. It is as plain as can possibly
be that the fruit-grower must use arti
fetal measures to fight the enemies
Of his crops, If he expects to succeed
The present conditions are now whai
they are. and we cannot now change
them This being true, it is mani
festly the proper course to pursue, il
seeking by artificial means to eoun
teract, so far as possible, the adverse
effects Of these present conditions
Thus. the spraying Of plants with In
sNcticides and fungieides becomes i'm

The dairy calf. to be raised ecoaom-
ically snd with the greatest chance OF
developing into a valuable dairy COW
must be raised by hand says ] II.
Grisdale True, considerable skill and
careful attention are necessary TO sue
ceed along this line, but careful OBJ
servance Of four or five principles VIII
insure success First. regularity of
feeding; second. uniformity in guam
tity Of food third. uniformity in gual-
ity of food fourtls. uniformity in tenn
perature Of food; fifth. cleanliness.
The young calf should be fed at least
three times a dag for two or three
weeks, and preferably four times. The
ration the first week or ten days
should consist Of whole milk fed at
temperature Of about 100 degrees
Fahr This ration may be gradually
changed to skim milk by introducing
a small amount into the whole milk
ration and gradually increasing the
proportion, being careful to feed al
ways at the same temperature. The
pltce Of the fat removed In the cream
may be taken by oatmeal or haxseed
meal boiled. being careful to make
but very slight addition in the usual
amount at any one time Most Ills
that calves are heir to arise from a viD.
lation Of some one Of the principles
have mentioned or from lack OF
cleanliness. Almost every case Of
scours or Indigestion may be traced
TO some sudden change in the time Of
feeding, the quantity or temperature
Of food fed THE boy is father OF
the man is a trite saying. but even
more surely the calf is mother OF
the COW. The ill-fed. dyspeptic. un-
thrifty calf can never hope to develop
anything but a commonplace COW, and
two or three successive generations Of
calves SO treatel are surely enough
to chill the aspirations of the most
sanguine dairy man. The calf once
past the age Of three months is usual.
4 ly safe, the danger from that time on
lying In the risk Of getting too much
food and taking on fat rather than
growing. 1t is usually best to breed
when about Is months old and When
four or five months advanced Ia preg-
nancy, ,sor even sooner. a heavier ration
Of a kind fitted for milking cows
should be fed AS parturition ap-
proaches she should be fed as much as
she can stand Of foods suited for
COWS in full milk, even though she get
fat and develop an abnormal udder.
Much OF her future usefulness depends
upon her treatment during the first
period Of her lactation. A ration must
be found that will induce milk produc-
tion, but such as will not encourage
the laying on Of fat. She must be
treated kindly, well fed and MIXED
for twelve months or longer Habits
formed during the milking period stick
to the COW as long as she lasts. SO
let these habits be good ones, In
conclusion TO the prospective dairy
man l say as was once said to me:
Breed, weed, feed and hustle but
Of these the greatest is feed.
