Jamaica. selected the other route
for the very good reason that all
places on the Boston boats were taken
far in advance when was ready to
engage my passage. But, as an Eng
lish friend expressed 1t, that line did
for us very WELL" and we had no fault
to find.
AS Jamaica Is becoming yearly more
and more the Mecca for tourists, 1t Is
as we'll to state the plain facts. which
really need no coloring.
There is more to be seen and en-
joyed for a month or more in Jamaica.
1t seems to me, than at any other
place SO conveniently reached from
our part of the world during the OBJ
jectionable months that precede
spring. The thinnest summer clothing
Is required, and no one Is more un.
comfortable than the Northern tourist
who tries to get about in blacb
derby, dark clothes and black shoes.
The best way Is to wear as much
white as possible. from the canvas
covering for the feet to the India-pith
helmet, do little walking in the sun
in the middle Of the day and preserve
an even disposition.
Those of us who were bound to
South America. or. as some were. on
the entire round trip from New York
to New York, arranged to take the
prettiest long drive on the island that
can be done in one day-that to the
famous Castle Gardens, the govern.
ment reservation, where nearly every
tree, shrub and plant that can be
found in the tropics has been gath
cred.
It was day that everybody en-
joyed hugely, including forty miles Of
drive over hill and dale, by the side
of purling streams, past plantations of
sugar cane, cocoanuts. bananas and
coffee, through negro villages and
groves OF gigantic cotton frees. As 1t
was on Friday, country people were
constantly being met in little parties.

Build Silos,

There are several very good reasons
why men should build silos. II they
have large numbers of cattle to feed.
There is less waste of fodder when It
Is preserved In the silo than when
taken care OF In any other way. Il
requires very much less room to store
In silos than in any other way. It 10
claimed that when the fodder is dried
and stored In the barn 1t requires
three times the room 1t does when
stored In the silos. Silage is also more
valuable than the dry fodder for milk
production, just as June pasturage
gives more milk than dry hay. Silage
Is as succulent and far more valuable
that roots. Silage keeps the digestive
organs OF the cows in excellent con.
dition, and thus disastrous outbreaks
OF disease are prevented. Silage can
be put up when 1t would be impos.
sible to cure the crop. on account of
wet weather. It is less trouble to
get silage made right than It is to get
a crop OF corn In the glazing stage
cured properly. II silage is left over
In the spring 1t may be used for help
ing out the pasturage with the best
results, for 1t is even superior to good
pasturage. With silage there Is no
sudden change from green to dry food
which always means q shrinkage of
the milk flow.

Soft Corn Gives Good Results.

From The Farmers Review: turing
the past year there has been much diff
ference of opinion among stockmen
concerning the feeding value of soft
corn caused by the early September
frost Of 1902. Early last October
Professors Kennedy and Holden OF
the Iowa Agricultural College issued
a report showing the chemical analy.
sis of soft corn and discussing the
feeding value of the same. They claim.
ed that on a dry matter basis 1t was
equal to mature corn for feeding pur.
poses. On account of the large
amount of moisture present more
would have to be fed to get good re-
suits. At that time the Animal In.
dustry department commenced a prac-
teal feeding experiment to test the
same. Sixteen steers of uniform breed
ing and quality were divided into two
lots of eight each. One was fed on
mature corn grown In 1900, and the
other on the soft corn of 1902. These
steers were fed six months and mar.
keted on April 10th in Chicago. Each
wv WoS soiu ocpaiatciy, uut TIE buyers
could not see any difference. thus
they both brought the same price,
S5.25 per hundred, within Is cents of
the top Of dull. slow market. The
results Of the slaughter test showed
the soft corn lot to kill out COS per
cent dressed meat. The mature corn
lot 60 per cent dressed meat. The
gains made by the lots were practical.
ly the same and the number of pounds
of corn required to produce one pound
Of gain was almost the same. being
slightly in favor Of the mature corn.
Valueiug the mature corn at IS cents
per bushel and the soft corn at 30
cents per bushel. there was a differ.
ence Of almost 8 cents per pound in
the cost Of producing one pound of
gain In favor of the cattle fed on soft
corn. Full details Of this experiment
will be issued In bulletin form at an
early date.-W. J. Kennedy, Iowa Az

Canadian Cheese Exports.


The Canadian foreign cheese trade
continues to grow. That country long
ago passed the United States In the
matter Of exports OF cheese, and has
been ever since increasing its lead.
A report from Montreal says that this
year that port was virtually cleared
Of old cheese by April first, whereas.
that does not usually occur till the
first Of May. The cheese export sea.
son Of 1902-03 is therefore 4losed.
There had been exported from that
port up to the first Of April 2,432 .6S2
boxes of cheese. as compared with
2.235.561 boxes the previous season.
which means an increase OF 1917. 121
boxes for this year. The value Of
cheese exported from Canada In the
last twelve months is estimated a.
$21,000.000. The Canadians are plan.
ming great things for the future. and
are expecting great run of cheese
making this coming season on &C.
count Of the fine way in which the
pastures are starting out. None of the
meadows are reported to have winter
killed and the recent seedlings arecom.
Ing through the winter in good shape.
At the present time a large hay crop
Is looked for. In England the cheese
market is said to be demanding large
supplies. which cannot be filled before
the beginning of summer. II is believ.
ed that cheese making in England is
on the decline, which would be a fur
ther factor in favor Of the Canadian
cheese makers.

typhoid Spread by Mix.

The water supply is almost always
connected with outbreaks of typhoid
fever. Sometimes the connection 10
indirect, as through milk, which has
been contaminated by contaminated
water supply. Could we but know the
facts, 1t would doubtless appear that
there are hundreds of local epidemics
each year that have been started by
contaminated milk supply. Only last
fall we reported an epidemic in
small village In northern Illinois,
which was due entirely to milk from
a small dairy In the outskirts of the
village. About thirty cases resulted
and at least two deaths. Just now
typhoid is raging at Stanford Uni.
versity In California and dispatches
say that 1t is due to milk from q local
dairy. About 100 students are down
with the disease. The dairy that was
known to have been the cause for the
outbreak has been closed down, while
some other dairies under suspicion
have had to go out of business tenn.
porarily. The fever has also appeared
in the university town of Palo Alto,
due probably to the use of the same
milk that started the disease In the
university. One-third of the pupils are
out Of school. This is bnt another
costly lesson Of the danger u using
unclean milk. II there were no other
reason for waging war on dirty sur.
roundings Of the diaries. the readiness
with which milk conveys disease
should be SUFFICIENT.

The pleasure OF going from the
North to the tropics in midwinter is
always much enhanced by a particu.

who sailed, for New York wore an air
OF almost summer mildness, and only
the lightest of overcoats were needed
as we steamed out into the bay.

Gated upon certificates of registry and
thus pass from owner to owner. as a
constant means Of Identification. As
in this system the marks, in case Of
error, cannot be rubbed out, care is
required to secure accuracy. The OPP
orator requires a rubber stamp show
ing the ears unnotched. With these
he can stamp first series OF impress
sions Of the head and ears upon the
pages Of record book and also upon
sheet Of paper, notching and number.

he proposes to notch the ears OF the
animals to be marked, making the
impression and marks also on the
sheet Of paper to correspond. Then,
with this duplicate sheet in hand,
when doing the work, he can be sure
to mark the animals exactly as shown
In his REGARD book. For numbering
polled cattle SO that the markings
shall be reliable and permanent, the
plan indicated by the accompanying
illustration is presented.
The explanation is as follows:
A notch in bottom of left ear equals
1; two notches equal Q.
A notch In top of left ear equals 8;
two notches, 6; three notches, 8.
A notch in bottom of right ear
equals 10; two notches equal 20.
A notch In top of right ear equals
80; two notches so; three notches 80.
A notch In end Of left ear equals
100.
A notch In end of right ear equals
200.
A hole in end of left ear equals 400.
A hole in end Of right ear equals 500.
A hole in bottom of left ear equals
1000.

regarding the marking Of polled ami

use Of ear tags, marked halters. tat

have not proved permanent nor en-.

The War on Morgan.

The Panama Canal cliques war on Sem ator Morgan grows in bitterness. although the Senator has made 1t plain that he is not fighting the canal but the unAmeri- can treaty under consideration. Yet even the unfriendly administration organ, The Washington Star, states the Senator's real position This is called forth in connec- ton with Senator Morgan's two resolu- lions offered today providing that no treaty ar agreement with any interested power or with the Panama Company shall interfere with the act of last June to con- struct a canal to connect the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans, and calling on all for correspondence relating to the American military occupation of Panama last year.
 The vindicative spirit of the Panama money power fight against the Alabama Senator is further illustrated by one daily newspapers cartoon which represents Senator Morgan standing bent over a wrecked bicycle. marked Nicaragua" his right hand holding a scroll marked Talk and Morgan" and his left hand scratching his chin, while just behind him rushes the automobile 'Isthmian"

FAST MAIL IS SAVED
ALABAMA DELEGATION WINS A
 VICTORY.
Congressman from Other States of the South Were Divided on the Question-Roosevelt Atti.
 tude on Venezuela.

Washington. Feb. 5.-(SpeciaD-Th Ala bama delegation in the House led by it's oldest member, Colonel Bankhead. won signal victory today, the result of which Is that the South will continue to enjoy it's present fast mail service.
 A number of Southern Congressmen did their best to abolish this prime necessity of the Southern business community, even the Georgia. Louisiana and Texas dele gations being divided in their views. for example, Congressman Fleming of Geor- gia, who had been petitioned by the lead ing commercial bodies of his district particularly, the Augusta Board of Trade, | to vote for the fast mail. made himself rather conspicuous against the measure in the final roll call having previously stated that he had long ago written a letter which satisfied his constituents as to his attitude.
 Yes" responded Congressman Wiley of Alabama. ''and those same constituents have satisfied themselves further by vot- ing to leave the gentleman at home.'
 In the heat of the fight for this para mount benefit to the Southern business interest, when Colonel Bankhead was taking the brunt of the blows from op- position and they were firing fusillade of irrelevant questions upon him. seeking vanly to confuse him, Congressman Henry Smith of Michigan piped out: 'The gentleman from Alabama (Mr. Bankhead) seems to be familiar with the service. and l see that the appropriation asked for is $I42. .728 75. What is the 75 cents for?'
 "I suppose that Is to pay for axle grease" was the instant and bland re- ply, whereat the House roared itself into good humOr.
 Truly the retention of the fast mail is great victory for the Alabama delega- ton.
 1t is interesting to note that Southern business men so entirely felt the retention of the fast mail a foregone conclusion that they sent nobody to Washington to urge the matter this time. while two years ago the Birmingham Commercial Club alone sent about a dozen of it's most influential members to intercede for the service. the cost of which Birmingham enterprise must have run well up into four figures. Snme that time the fast mail has ben expedited ,as Colonel Bank head demonstrated in his speech, some twelve hours upon the average for Mont gomery. Birmingham Mobile, New Or leans and Texas points.

WASHINGTON TALKS
EDUCATOR TELLS OF HIS WORK
 AT TUSKEGEE.
Made No Allusion Over Dispute About His Visit to Gainesville. Says Invitation to Him
 Was Natural.

Gainesville, Fla, Feb. 1.-Two thousand people of both races went to the court house tonight to hear Booker T. Wash ington. Hundreds stood outside unable to get in. Professor Washington made no allusion to the dispute over his invita- ton.
 He said in part:
 Many teachers of the public schools of Florida were educated at the Tuskegee Institute and I am sure 1t is but right and proper that you should know some- thing of the methods employed in prepar- ing colored teachers for their work. There Is nothing unnatural or unusual in my be- ing invited here to explain the methods and object of our work. Even in days of slavery the two races had frequent con- ferences with each other. There was no master who would not permit a slave to come to his presence and talk freely about his condition and aspirations. There was no slave who did not feel he could have a hearing in the presence of his owner"
 Speaking of the work at Tuskegee he said:
 When I began the work of founding Tuskegee Institute I resolved to make the school not only of value in uplifting my own race. but school to send out colored men and women who should prove of value to both races. In analyz- ing the condition of our people I found a majority lived by some form of agri- culture and I found in studying the life of the race that. as a rule, the race was better off in the coutry uistricts occupied in the cultivation of the soil. and from the first I have placed the greatest em- phasis on agricultural training. I be- lieve the time not far distant when the advantage of teaching agriculture in all public schools will be seen I believe you will agree with me when I say the time has come when we must recognize that an intelligent. slxillful. conscientious man is of more value than an ignorant, shiftless one I do not believe the negro will ever appeal to the white man in vain"

NEW TRAFFIC RELATIONS.
Agreement of the Rock Island and
 the Southern Pacific.

Chicago, Feb. 5.-In connection with the new relations between the Rock Island and the Southern Pacific, 1t developed to- day that the Hartman interests opened the Denver and Cheyenne gateway to the Rock Island freight traffic two months ago.
 The arrangements whereby the Rock Island now turns over freight to the Union Pacific at these points were com pleted in Chicago. Formerly the Denver and Rio Grande secured all the Rock Isl- and's through freight Now the condition is changed and the Union Pacific is the recipient of most of it, The traffic agree ment whereby the Rock Island exchanges traffic with the Union Pacific does not in- clude passenger business which still is handled by the Denver and Rio Grande, except that which originates at Memphis.
 It Is understood that a tentative move ment has been made by the Union Paci- fic toward securing friendly interchange with the Burlington through the Denver gateway. thereby competing the list of Denver Chicago roads.
