Intelligence In Dairying.

intelligence in DairyIns.
In an address to dairymen, Prof
c. e. Marshall of Michigan said:
The producers of milk in general
are not sufficiently acquainted with
milk itself and with those agents
which tend to influence milk. They,
therefore, are not ,intelligently posted
in those methods which will produce
satisfactory milk. Also they are
claiming that the consumers will not
pay for the extra labor entailed in
the production of a first grade milk.
Farther, too, there is too little COM
prehensive knowledge Of the methods
used in the manufacture of milk prod
ucts. You may chide me for max
ing these remarks, but in general
am right in saying that they are true.
You know that every farmer cannot
produce milk at profit. You know
that one farmer will make 6 to 8
per cent on his investment while his
neighbor, living practically under the
same conditions, will lose as much or
even more. What is the difference?
One is an intelligent dairyman and the
other is not. One is an expert and
the other Is not. No matter where
you go or what profession you exam
inc. this same condition exists. It
is the mn who knows, who has the
energy to push his knowledge. So
believe tnat he who is able to know
dairying from A to z will be the man
who will succeed in dairying. He may
be depended upon to develop dairy
science and dairy art, for he Will ap-
preciate the value of it and the rela-
ton of such to his work. I do not be-
lieve that it is worth while to try to
educate man who is opposed to that
education, whether it is in college or
whether that education comes through
self study. The best way to cure a
balky horse is to get rid of him. Time
is too valuable to spend in efforts to
correct him.

CAPTURED THE WRONG LION.
How Head Waiter Came to Have
Honors Thrust Upon Him.


The career of a social lion hunter
is liable to be attended with an oc-
casional Disappointment, even though
on the whole successful. Burton
Holmes, on some of his tours as a
lecturer, has been considerably lion
lied and he tells this story of COM
pliment which he missed, but which
was enjoyed by another. He was lee
turing in an eastern city, and a re-
ceptlon was given in his honor at the
principal hotel of the place.
Among those who attended this re-
ception was woman prominent So
cially, who has established a sort Of
salon" and receives her friends Sun
day afternoons, trying to provide
Zion" or two for each occasion.
Burton Holmes was so fortunate
as not to be presented to the fair lion
hunter, but she presented herself to
the man she had stalked for her
game, and urged upon him her invi-
tation for the Sunday afternoon. He
very modestly attempted to decline
it. His excuses were not accepted,
and the victim consented to appear.
Extra arrangements were made for
this occasion and the fact that Mr..
Holmes was to be there was herald
ed abroad. On the day all the youth
and beauty of the place gathered to-
gether awaiting the advent of a some
what tardy lion, who was received
appeared to be embarrassed thereby.
The head waiter had been mistaken
for the eminent lecturer.

STRUCK BY TORPEDO
THE CRAVEN WAS STUNG BY THE
SUBMARINE ADDER.
FINE POINT IN NAVAL WORK.
EFFICIENCY OF THE SUBMERGED
CRAFT DEMONSTRATED.

The Adder, in Mimic Warfare,
Creeped Up Near the Craven, SINK
neneath the Waves, Approached
More Closely and Launched a
Dummy TOrpedO-The Missile
Struck the Craven Amidships.
Distinct Shock Felt ON the Craven.
Newport, r. l., Sept. ia pretty
exhibition of mimic warfare, important
as illustrating the effectiveness of the
navy's submarine craft was given to-
day off Brenton's Reef Lightship, when
the submarine torpedo boat Adder sue
ceeded in torpedoing the torpedo boat
Craven.
So stealthily did the Adder creep up
on the Craven that the wooden tor
pedo, successfully fired, struck the
Craven a smart blow below the water
line amidshiDs before the crew on the
floating ship could man the guns or
the torpedo tubes.
The Craven left the torpedo station
during the forenoon and running down
the harbor. cruised about Brenton's
Reef Lightship, awaiting the attack.
The Adder, instead of following imme-
diately, waited an hour in order to get
the crew of the Craven off their guard
As soon as Fort Adams was cleared,
the submarine boat plunged beneath
the surface and remained for forty
five minutes, during which time Off
GERS and men enjoyed lunch without
inconvenience. On getting outside the
harbor the Adder was once more sent
to the surface, but only her coming
tower was exposed. The Craven was
sighted a short distance outside the
lightship, riding unconcernedly on an
easy swell.
The Adder again plunged, and when
within 300 yards of the Craven, a
wooden torpedo in the shape and size
of a regular projectile, was fired. The
shot was a good one, and the torpedo
struck the Craven amidshps with con-
siderable perceptible jar to the boat.

NEW YORK PRIMARIES
PASSED Peacefully.
Some Good, StiG Fights Were Made

Some Good, Stiff Fights Were Made
in Some of the Districts.
New York, Sept. 15.-The primaries,
both Republican and Democratic, to-
day passed off much more smoothly
than had been expected
The closeness of some of the district
fights was remarkable. This was true
in four of the Democratic fights. They
were the First district. where Daniel
E. Finn had to fight for victory against
Alderman Michael Kennedy; in the
Ninth district where the hottest fight
in the city was waged unsuccessfully
by William S. Devery against Frank
j. Goodwin, who won by 404 votes; in
the Nineteenth, where former Tombs
Warden James j. Hagan wrested the
leadership from forn1eF Police Commits
sioner John B. Sextbn and i'm the
Twenty ninth, wherd the result be-
tween Joseph F. Mulqheen and Thomas
E Rush appeared to be in doubt.
The Republicans, who had fights on
their hands in three instances. met
with defeat, one, that of Henry Birrell,
the leader of the Twenty-tifth, being an
overwhelming Vistory for Alderman
Herbert A. Parsons, the aspirant.
Former Police Inspector Thomas F.
McAvoy, the leader of the Twenty
third district, after a picturesque bat
tie, y defeated the contestant, John j.
Dooley, whose name was instrumental
in reviving a song popular during last
years campaign.
The voting during the day was re-
markably free from trouble. There
were not more than fifty arrests dur
ing the entire seven hours of voting.

Washington, Sept. 15.-The weather

Further deterioration in the condi-
ton of cotton is very generally re-
ported throughout the cotton belt.
Shedding and rust are extensive, and
quite general complaints of premature
opening are received from the central
and eastern districts. The greater
part of the cotton belt is now suffer-
ing from drought and boil weevils are
destructive in localities. Boil Wee
wills continue to destroy nearly all new
forms in the southwestern. central and
eastern portions of the cotton area in
Texas.
Cotton is opening fast in all dis
tricts and picking is progressing rap
idly.
Tobacco harvest has made favorable
progress, except in Wisconsin, where
it has been delayed by rains. In Ken
lucky considerable is being cut green
on account of drought. In Tennessee
late tobacco is in need of rain.

JEROME OPPOSES LOW.
why He Declares Against Him for
Recollection as Mayor.


New York, Sept 15.-District Attor-
ney Jerome. who is at his summer
home in Lakeville, Conn, has written
to a member of the Citizens Union in
this city a statement of his reasons
for opposition to the candidacy of May
or Seth Low for reelection.
81 have satisfied myself by careful
inquiry" says Mr.. jerome, that the
great mass of people to whom we must
look for support in the coming cam
paign believe that Mr.. Low cannot be
reelected, and that while they may
give a half-hearted support to him for
the sake OF, the cause, they cannot over
come their dislike and disgust for him. ="
The weakness of Mr. Low as may
orally candidate, Mr.. Jerome attributes
to "egotism, self-conlplacency and con-
stitutional limitations"
AS for the attitude of President
Roosevelt toward the municipal cam
paign, Mr. Jerome says that although
the idea is fostered that the Presi-
dents influence is behind Low, he has
reason to believe the President has
abstained from any expression of ap-
prevail Mr.. Jerome says the President
is being hurt by the belief that he is
behind Low. ,-...-
In summarizing, MI. Jerome says
that "Mr. Low should not be noni-
mated because of his personal unpop-
ularity caused, not by his adherence
to the principles of reform, but spring.
ing from the personal character of the
man."

San Juan, Porto Rico, Sept 15.-Ed-
uardo Condo and Leonidas Guillot, two
Socialists, who spoke in a recent meet
ing of the American Federation of La
Dor, were put on trial to-day for in
sulting the American flag and threat
ening the life of Gov. Hunt. Their
speeches teemed with abuse of the gov
eminent.
One of the prisoners was accused of
advising the workmen, upon the return
of Gov. Hunt, on Oct. !, from the
United States, to parade, carrying black
flags, and then TO make demands upon
the government. If these demands were
refused. the speaker added, the alterna-
tive of killing Gov. Hunt remained.
The other orator was said to have
declared that the American flag was At
only to cover rascals and criminals
The accused vehemently denied the
charges. They were tried before JUS
tice Kopel, convicted of anarchistic
conduct and sentenced to six months in
prison.
The convicted men will appeal from
the Judgment, claiming that Justice
Kopel had no jurisdiction, as there is
no law covering the offense. The in

MOODY DISAPPROVES
WORKMAN FINDINGS
He Says the Ensign Was CuIpabIy

Washington, Sept. 15.-Secretary
Moody has disapproyed the findings in
the case of Ensign Ward X. Workman,
U, S. N, who was tried by court-mar-
tial and acquitted on the charge of
''culpable inefficiency in the perform
anee of duty"
Wortman,s on Jan. Is, last, off San
Juan, was In charge of the third gun
division on the Massachusetts, includ-
ing the two eight-inch guns in the
starboard after turret,. when one of
them, during target practice, exploded.
injuring nine enlisted men, all of whom
afterward died.
The court of inquiry found Workman
guilty of error of judgment, in giving
an order to open the breech of the gun
The court recommended that no fur
Their proceedings be had in the matter
The secretary, however, ordered a
court-martial on the basis of the
courts findings. Workman was acquit-
ted by this court.
Secretary Moody finds that Workman
failed to exercise the care required of
him, that the death of nine men result
ed from his negligence and that he was
guilty of culpable inefficiency in the
performance of duty. He concludes:
Ensign Workman failed to exercise
the cafe and skill and foresight which
the United States has the right to ex-
pect from one who holds its commission
in the navy"
The action of the secretary does not
affect the courts findings.
