ual chicken owners in the immeaia

ual chicken owners in the immediate
vicinity of Yarmouth practically clear
fifteen hundred dollars in two weeks off
the hens, the shipper clears about $ll5
on his carload, the railroad receives
$500 in men clear a hundred dollars In
transferring the eggs to the retailers.
The latter make from two to three hun
dred dollars for their share and the
consumer gets the finest quality of one
of the most delightful and certainly the
most healthfui foods in the world as
his share of the bargain.
And the income from the industry OF
the Yarmouth hens does not cease with
the retailers, either, for the hotels, the
restaurants. the confectioners, the bak-
ers and the manufacturers of all COM
modities into the construction of which
eggs so. all make large profit out OF
that carload of eggs. When the thing
is figured out in this way 1T becomes
at once apparent what an important
adjunct the hen is to the prosperity of
a community. Coupled with republican
protection the Iowa barnyard fowl is
one of the best money-makers in the
world.

Stallion lns pection.


Annually there is considerable agita-
tion among progressive breeders us to
the desirability and expediency of gov
eminent stallion inspection. Some adVo-
cate voluntary application on the part
of stallioneers to an authorized pupllc
official, who would, on thd payment OF
n stipulated fee, cause the animal to be
Inspected for soundness and authenti-
cate the breeding by the proper stud
books, and on proof of soundness and
thoroughbred breeding issue the neces-
sary certificate to the owner certifying
to soundness and pedigree. Other horse
men champion compulsory Inspection
and certificate OF breeding in order to
protec, the breeding interests of the
horse industry.
1t is evident that many stations
standing for public service are defee-
tive in constitutional and physical
soundness as we'll as deficient in thor
oughbred breeding. The average farm
er is not skilled in veterinary science
and not informed as to the breeding OF
pure bred horses An expert horseman
can easily conceal a physical unsound-
ness or confuse and jugglel the pedigree
of his stallion. 1t is certainty spec
les of misrepresentation and fraud to
stand a stallion for public service that
is only a grade sire or is afflicted with
constitutional unsoundness.

largely to the Improvement of the diff

would be eliminated from the industry.
Individual responsibility would then
surrender to scientific authority and

in Germany, Belgium, France and

are, generally speaking. resting upon

1t is a terrible arraigr ment of the
race and coming, as it does, from
men like Thomas Nelson Page, the
north must accept it's general truth

horror simply incornprehensble to

present of ravulsion that will carry

ton. The north is learning that I'M

When the test comes. the north is

The whites, north and south, are eds-

never be made a helot. The white

4 QUEER MISTAKE.

Those interested in the manufacture
of cleo are calling attention to a pc
culiar mistake in the report of the
commissioner of inland revenue. to
which attention was called recently by
CONGRESSMAN Boutell. of Illinois, in de-
bate on the house floor during the
recent session of congress He said
that the commissioners report showed
that upwards of 10000 pounds of oleo
had been imported from foreign coun-
tries into Chicago during the months
OF June, July, August and September
last upon which customs duties ana
t internal revenue taxes of 81 cents a
pound had been collected. These fig
ures had been used in the brief of the
governuent attorney in the suit in
volving the constitutionality> of the
oleo law, now pending before the SUI
preme court OF the United States. as
showing that the anti-oleo law really
produced revenue. and was not as was
charged by its opponents, merely a
measure for the protection OF the dairy
and creamery interests, and that the
profits in the oleo industry We're SO
large as to permit Of the payment Of
an enormous tax on the imported arti-
Gle. Mr.. Boutell stated that the
commissioner of internal revenue had
admitted that this was an error; that
no cleo whatever had been imported
ana that internal revenue tax was col
lected en- small quantity only of that
article In Chicago. The government.
had agreed to correct its brief in this
particular. Mr.. Boutell said
Many persons and papers opposed
the cleo bill as sop to the dairy in
terests and as practically cutting out
OF market wholesome substitute for
butter. The law has been most strict
" construed and enforced, and its JUS
tice is still questionable.

Farmers Should Raise Their Own Seed.
1t is generally recognized by the
most successful corn growers that it
is not advisable to purchase seed corn
raised a great distance from home if
this can possibly be avoided. Partic-
ularly should one avoid getting seed
from the south II seed must be pur
chased from a distance, endeavor to
get it from a locality in your own
latitude but it would be preferable
to go north Of your own latitude rath-
er than south of where it is TO be rails

troduce a new or an especially good
variety into a neighborhood. it Is bet

ties.
There is no danger of crops running
out if seed be properly selected each
year. Continuous and vigorous selec-
ton, however, should be made from
year to year. II this Is properly done,
a given crop will not only hold its
own but it will improve. Good culti-
walton and fertilization of course are
also necessary.

Marbles ia Cattle.

A correspondent to Hoard's Dairy
man says:
have been much surprised at a let
ter in your issue of March 4th, inst.
signed by n. S. Mayo, in which he
states that the MARBLE fy lays its eggs
at the heels Of the cattle and from
thence they work their way to the
back of the animals. The fact is that
the eggs are laid directly upon the
back, anywhere from the rump to the
shoulders. The fly appears from May
1st to July, according to seasons and
its presence can be seen by the ex-
element among the animals. The best
remedy is smear made as follows:
Tar ! pint, kerosene ! pint. boiling
water l gallon. common soap H pound.
Dissolve the soap In the hot water, add
the tar and the kerosene. stir briskly;
il too thick on cooling add more water.
The composition should be thick
paste, which. if smeared on cattle
twice or three times a week will pre-
vent the MARBLE fly from alighting on
them.
For cattle which have many MARBLES
in them, hypo iermic syringe and u
solution of carbolic acid is the best
remedy.
Open the wound slightly, if not ex
posed, inject into the grub itself a few
drops and in a few days it can be
drawn out, dead.
This of course, can only be applied
to cattle in small herds, but I have
found that the smear is the best and
