Imported HoIsteins at Riverside.

The Pierce Land & Livestock Co.,
owners of the Riverside herd of Hol-
stein-Friesian cattle at Stockton, Cal,
have recently received the first car
load of their imported cattle. Three
more carloads are now due to arrive.
These cattle represent many weeks
of labor on the part of the well known
Eastern expert, Frank S. Peer, who
was commissioned by Charles d. Pierce
to search Holland and the Netherlands
for the finest specimens of HOlstein-
Friesian cattle that could be pur-
chased
The shipments reach the fondest
hopes of Mr.. Pierce for they are said
to be the finest that ever left Holland.
Mr. Peers sojourn in Holland covered
many weeks, during which time he
conducted a diligent search for the
very best animals Before shipment
all the cattle purchased were subjected
to the most exacting tests for tubercu-
losis and other diseases by DR.. Geddie,
we'll known veterinarian and repre-
sentative of the American government
at London.

THE DAIRY
Salt Spring Island Creamery.

The practice of retailing feed to our
patrons is working most satisfactorily.
Many of those who would have kept
COWS complained of the high price of
feed, but that difficulty being swept
away the herds are increasing. The
man who brings in wagon load OF
cream with a strong team of horses
may Just as we'll return with the neces-
sary grain for his cows, and those who
bring in one can in the buggy can
easily pack one sack home every jour-
ney or so. A duplicate of the feed is
made out by our retary-buttermaker
and signed by the manager. We have
imported a buttermaker who has never
eaten a bit of lotus in his life. He
runs everything by steam. TWO secre-
taries having retired to eat lotus ana
find something less onerous and more
remunerative, we hit on the expedl-
ent of providing our buttermaker
with some stationery and good read
ing lamps and installed him as secre-
tary. We have also invested in re-
liable set of scales so that he can
weigh out the feed and handle 1t gen
orally. 1t does not seem to Interfere
with the GOODNESS of the butter
making operations, for his samples OF
unsalted butter would do credit to a
Surrey farm. There is some splendid
timber round our creamery. 1t would
be vet one more unique idea to fur
nish our buttermaker with an eight
foot saw and set of spring boards.

ing his idle hours?

experience, not confined to Senator
Stewart, lies the great weakness of
the argument in favor of compulsory
observance of Clearly methods. If the
public cannot be made to realize the
difference between clean and unclean
milk and is careless as to which it
consumes, what good to enforce regu-
lations intended to insure the produc-
ton of the clearly article? 1t is clear
ly a question for the public to decide.
No board of health regulations, be
they ever so thorough and ever so
thoroughly enforced, can be effective
in compelling dairy men to sell only
milk free from filth if the consumer is
not willing to pay the difference in
value between such milk and the other
kind. Milk properly cared for costs
more and is worth more and no citi-
zen worthy of the name should object
to pay the difference.

Model Diaries Not Appreciated.

On the subject of milk supply and
the advantage of model diaries, there
is another side which deserves atten-
ton The public generally will decry
dairy methods shown to be unsanitary
and there is always a thrill of horri-
fed indignation when the health OIL
GERS of q city in campaign for clean
milk make disclosures OF the unsan1-.
tary conditions existing in the dairies
which supply the city. But the same
public is rarely willing to give the
necessary support to dalryman VINO
goes to the expense OF establishing,
maintaining and conducting model
dairy. the product of which shall be
above suspicion. The observance OF
clearly methods, the erection and prop
err care of model dairy buildings, the
employment of competent help ana the
use of modern devices, all mean more
expense than that borne by the care
less dairyman who pays no attention TO
cleanliness or sanitation. That greater
expense must be made up in the higher
price of the product supplied to the
consumer and when the difference be-
tween clean and unclean milk is con-
sidered, with all the delecterlous re-
suits known to accrue from the use or
the impure aftlcle, IL Woulu SeeH Ied
sonable that the consumers would
gladly pay the difference in price.
But the facts do not bear out that as
sumption and case in point is fur
nished by the experience of Senator
Stewart, told in recent Washington
dispatches. The senator has expended
$11O, 900, and by expended" is meant
that he has lost that sum, in conduct
ing a dairy to supply high grade
quality of milk to the people of Wash
ington. The product was beyond ques-
ton, the condition of his dairy ex-
ceptionable, but the public did not
care about that and the senator was
able to obtain no more than others
who conducted their dairies on slip
shod, careless methods, at fraction
of the expense he was at.
This is discouraging. And in this

kets at much better than steer prices
of same age and grade.
The buying up of good appearing
heifers that show milking quality,
crosses of Jersey and Shorthorn or
Guernsey, Holstein or any good grade
mixer, where both quality and quantl-
ty of milk are reasonable certainty IN
the make up of the heifer, cannot but
develop into a paying industry. The
care and attention of a lot OF helters
is more than that necessary to bestoW
on steers. The feed and general at
tention of the heifer, outside OF the
breeding season and preparation OF the
heifer for the calving period, is not
more than is due the thrifty steer,
if he is to be made a profitable ami
NAL.
The heifer should be encouraged to
gentleness and quietness of disposition
This is the work of the one who feeds,
salts and looks after the heifer herd.
Cattle are not naturally wild and vic
ious. This is cultivated into them by
the manner of the person who is
around them Proper treatment at
calving time will almost certainly keep
a heifer from becoming kicker
The time of discrimination between
good mixers and poor mixers is TAX
ing place now There has been more
reform in this respect in the last two
years than there was in any five years
previous, and yet there is room for
much more in every herd in the coun-
try. The city milk dairies are attempt
ing a reform, but this is in the dlrec-
ton of getting larger mixers. The lit
tie Jersey of quality, but lacking in
quantity, is not popular COW for the
present day city milk dairy. The de-
mand is for cow that will water her
own milk, a big mixer, regardless OF
quality.
The growing of heifers for milch
COWS, or the establishing of heifer
herds of select, choice animals, is an
industry that offers a good field for
profitable investment today. The good
mich COW is always in demand, and
such an industry can be made to lead
to better prices and a great reform IN
the quality of the mich COWS OF the
country.

The Heifer Raising Industry.

This is a period in the cattle bust
ness that causes cattle breeders anu
cattle handlers to guess at what phase
of the industry to take hold with
a reasonable chance ahead to make
money. The feeding business does not
offer anything certain; on the other
hand it presents very unsteady anu
doubtful future. The steer raiser can
not feel sure of a demand for his stock
steers, that will justify his efforts, be-
cause he must have the feeder de-
mand to market the surplus or ne
himself must become feeder, fea-
ture in the cattle business he does not
understand or desire to engage IN:
The dairy business is now one OF the
most successful and best money-mak-
ing branches of agriculture that the
American farmer can engage In. 1t mas
been simplified in it's methods OF op-
Grafton and system OF management SO
the plain, common, every day FARMER
can engage in it with as much assur-
ance of success as the expert. 1t means
now the cream separator, and the eco
nomical handling and feeding OF the
skim milk.
The demand is for better COWS for
the farm dairy; it is quality that
counts when the cream is SOLD at the
farm. There are too many poor quail
ty COWS in the country, and they nave
been finding their way into the dairy
herds to the detriment of the dairy
business. It does not take dairy
man. who is selling cream, long to dis
cover that the low quality butter rat
COW does not pay in any relation she
NAV hold to the cream or butter dairy.
The raising of high class heifers for
the dairy should be good business
now and should continue to grow bet
ter. 1t is not every one who can raise
heifers of this class, even IL they were
so disposed, and those who can, do not
seem disposed to raise more such IMAM
their herd demands require. 1t is
almost an unheard of thing to flnd a
breeder or heifer dealer VINO is rais
ing high grade mixers, outside OF the
full blood herds kept for the sale OF
breeding stock.
The heifer raising industry for pro,
ducing mich cows will pay. even II
these promising high grade helfers
when two years old are shipped with
their calves at side to the city markets
and sold. A quiet, good appearing
heifer. broken so she is easily handled,
will find a ready sale in all city mar

People who have tried change of eli
mate in vain for the cure of weak lungs
have been perfectly and permanently
cured by the use of DR.. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery. It cures deep-seated
coughs, bronchitis, bleeding lungs, ema-
citation, and other conditions which, if
neglected or unskilfully treated, find a
fatal end in consumption.

monia which left ME with very bad cough,
and also left my lungs in a very bad condition"
