side Of their clique. Perry arrived at
Buffalo March "a, and Immediately set
about his work with the greatest energy.
He was very efficiently assisted by the
sailing people of that region, particularly
such men as Capt. Dobbins and Noah
Brown, who were familiar with the wa
ters and shores, and were earnest, prac-
teal men. Perry had intelligence enough
to avail himself of their assistance, and
of everything. else that would contribute
toward the end.
He found that the forest trees around
Erie had been felled, boards had been
cut out by the old-fashioned whipsaws,
the keels of two brigs, to carry 20 guns,
and of a schooner had been laid, and three
other gunboats were well advanced in con-
strlctiOn. The frames of the vessels were
white and black oak and chestnut, the
outside planking Of oak and the decks
Of pine. Much of the frame wood nailed
on in the evening had been trees stand
ing in the forest in the morning.

ened to Pittsburg to hurry on the very
much needed guns and ammunition. He
was soon back on Lake Erie, and by the
Oath he had the satisfaction of having
five vessels afloat, three gunboats and two
brigs. These were the prize brig Gale
donia; the schooner Somers, carrying one
long "a FOUNDER; the schooner Amelia,
carrying one long 1S-pounder: the
schooner Ohio, carrying one long 24-
FOUNDER, and the schooner Contractor,
carrying one long 18-pounder.
VALUABLE LAND VICTORY.
Perry could not be content with even
all this activity, and SO hurried off to join
Commodore Chauncey in an attack upon

was born in South Kingston, Il. l., Aug
%, 17S5, and entered the navy as a Mid
shipman on the Sloop-of-war General
Green, where he saw active service before
Tripoli, when the Government desired to
punish those pirates of the seas. In 1910
he had risen to the command of the
schooner Revenge, which was wrecked,
but he displayed so much saiorship and
good conduct that he received rs much

for activity, and in February, 1913, he
received a letter from Commodore Cham-
cey, which said: "You are the very per-
son l want for particular service in
which you may gain reputation for your
self and honor for your country" This
service proved to be the command of tile
naval force on Lake Erie. Perry was
delighted and his JOY was complete when.
Feb. II, he received an order from the
Secretary of the Navy to report to Com
modore Chauncey at Sacketts Harbor,

In conjunction with Col. Winfield

calf will always act more hungry after
taking its meal than before, but 1t is
better thus than to give it a larger
mess and then have a case of scours or
bloat on your hands. The milk should
be measured every time with clean
tin cup, or weighed with a balance
SCALE Each calf should be fed by
itself out of a clean tin pail, which
should be washed and scalded after
each feeding, just as thoroughly and
carefully as one does the milk pals.
Place the calves in small stanchions
while they are being fed, so they will
not get into the habit of sucking each
other. Have the little manger in
front of them wide enough so an ordin-
airy tin pail containing the mess of
milk sets into it. Have partitions
placed in the manger, and when it has
taken the milk, take out the pail, and
if the calf is old enough to eat oats or
bran, throw in about tablespoonful
and it will get into the habit OF chew
ing the oats as soon as it has taken the
milk, for about that time it wants to do
something, and if it is not confined in
stanchion or tied out of reach of an
other calf it will amuse itself by suck
ing it's neighbours ears. The bottom
of the manger should be dressed board
about ten inches wide, and should be
so adjusted that it can be taken out
once a week and scrubbed with hot
water and soap, for the manger must be
kept absolutely sweet and clean"

THE DAIRY
Better Butter is Wanted.

While the late season has been res
ponsible for many drawbacks in pro-
duction, it has had a contrary effect in
milk and butter production through
out the country generally. The Elgin
Dairy Report, after careful canvass of
the situation, arrives at the conclusion
that production and shipments will az
gregate fully 10 per cent in excess of
last year. The same authority speak
ing of the quality of product, voices
complaint which will be recognized
and appreciated by the country at
large Continually and persistently
we hear the same old story from the
dealers and receivers of creamery but
ter, that the proportion of fancy to the
amount received is not what they
would like-is not as great as it ought
to be; that it would be much easier for
them to dispose of a thousand tubs of
fancy, at full prices, than of under
grades at lower prices. 1t would
seem that, with all the information
scattered about by the dairy schools,
experiment stations and other means
of information, the creamery men and
buttermakers should have at hand
knowledge that would help them, or in
fact compel them to make more good
goods. 1t is a well known economic
fact that the surplus of any product
determines the value of the whole out
put. So it is, the surplus OF poor but
ter determines the value Of the goods,
and holds the price down to a lower
level than it would be were it not for
the surplus of this medium and lower
grade product.

is examined very carefully, and any
tanned and off-favored milk rejected.
The factory and all apparatus is kept
very clean. The milk is heated in the
tempering vat to IS degs., and the
cream is run from the separators into
the cream elevator, and elevated by
same so as to run into a continuous
pasteurizer in which the cream is
heated to 1876 to 190degs. F., and as

FEEDING Separator Milk to Calves.

Professor T. L. Hacker, of the Min
nesota agricultural college, out of the
abundance of his experience, presents
the following directions for the grow
ing of good calves on separator milk.
81 have made calf-rearing my bust
ness for over twenty years, and dur
ing the last fifteen years have placed
my chief reliance on skim milk. For
growing calves, l consider the separa-
tor milk at least equal to my whole
milk, though calves will not lay on
as much fat as they will when whole
milk is fed, but they will make as
much growth and be as thrifty on
skim milk There is nothing in but
ter fat that a calf can use in building
body tissue Butter fat can be con-
verted into body heat and body fat, and
nutriment for this purpose can be sup
piled more cheaply with flax meal,
which contains 80 to 35 per cent more
oil. My system of feeding is very
uniform. When the calf is dropped, |
let it suck once, and then remove it
from the dam. If it is removed in the
morning / give it no feed until the
following morning This is done so
the calf will be hungry, and will drink
the milk without the finger. | give
from three to four pints of it's mothers
milk twice a day, Immediately after
milking the dam. A small calf gets
three pints, and large calf four pints.
This l continue for about one week
Then for one week / give it whole milk
half and skim milk half twice a day.
giving it only from three to four pints
The third week I feed all separator
skim milk, but put in the milk tea
spoon of ground flax. [ gradually in
crease the skim milk and flax meal so
that by the end of the fourth week it
is receiving a heaping tablespoonful of
flax meal and ten pints of skim milk
twice a day. After the first month it
has access to little early cut hay, and
a little whole oats and bran and shorts.
The important points are strict reg
ularity in time of feeding, quantity
and temperature of milk.
'It has been the general opinion
among farmers, that separator skim
milk was not a strong or nutritious
feed and that a large mess must be
given to make up in quantity what
they supposed it lacked in quality, and
the result was the calves were overfed

Pasteurized Butter from Whole Milk.


The pasteurizing of cream for butter
making is not generally practised, but
it is gaining in favor and the predic-
ton is made that in ten years from
now it will be regular adjunct in the
art of butter making The tendency
is toward a general increase of the
system and the subject is an important
one. There is not much data to be
had on the subject. One fact that
stands out paramount is the necessity
of psychological cleanliness in cream
cries where pasteurizatiOn is practlsed.
1t is hardly necessary to remind our
readers of the principle Of pasteuriza-
ton further than that it's object is to
free the milk and cream from all acc1-
dental germ infection and to place the
control of it's bacterial content as far
as possible in the hands of the butter
maker; manifeStly, therefore the sue
cess of the system depends upon the
ability to prevent interference with
such control through further accidental
infection in the creamery; and this
depends upon the utmost cleanliness of
surroundings-not only as to the
grosser forms of dirt" but as to the
air itself, the water used in washing
and every other thing that comes in
contact with the butter.
Making butter from pasteurizel
cream raises buttermaking from an art
to a science if it is done properly, and
makes the buttermaker deal intelligent
ly with organisms the properties and
functions of which were scarcely sus-
pected thirty-five years ago. 1t adds
an interest to the occupation which
is very attractive to educated and cul-
tured men, and raises the standing, as
it should make the requirement of ca
pacity and the remuneration of the
buttermaker's occupation. The de
tails as practised by makers actually
following the system are valuable
when published and given out to the
great mass of progressive buttermak-
ers who read dairy literature. This is
being done by the New York Produce
Review, and we take the liberty of re
publishing three articles found in a
recent issue of that publication. Those
who practise pasteurization were ask
ed to describe in detail how they made
pasteurized cream butter in a whole
milk creamery. One Iowa buttermak
er said:

am working at present, but will an

Negro Had Attempted to Strike the Officer With Q Brick-The Patrolman Not Placed
 Under Arrest.

Eugene Lewis a negro, after attempting to take the life of Mounted Pstrolnan J. M. Mosely. was shot and instantly kiii- ed by the policeman at 1:30 o'clock this morning.
 That the homicide was justifable ia not in dispute. The companion of the dead negro says that Lewis had thrown . brick at the policeman and was attempt ing throw another when the fatal shot was fired. Patrolman Mosely was not arrested.
 With Mounted Patrolman Potter Smith and Bicycle Patrolmen Evans and Can tey, Mosely was securing Vesuvius in search of the assailants of John Weiser, watchman who was knocked uncon- cious and robbed at the Alabama Com press early last night. Within 8 stones throw of the compress. Lewis and a com panion, Ed Mickens. came out of negro house. Mickens carried guitar and was singing. Lewis was swearing in loud tone of vice.
 The patrolmen advanced toward them. calling out for the negroes to stop their noise. Lewis turned and ran a short dis tance. Patrolman Mosely followed him.
 Seizing a brick, the negro hurled it at the patrolman, the missile passing over his head. The brick fell near the other policeman, who at once advanced.
 Mosely ran up to the negro, who stood his ground and grappled the officer. Dis engaging himself, Lewis stepped back about a yard and crying, Now I'll fix you" drew back his arm with Q brick cienched in his hand.
 At shat instant the policeman fired. Tho ball took effect in the right side of the | negros neck, breaking 1t. Lewis died instantly. The brick was found clenched in his right hand.

 back his arm to throw, when he fired, The pistol was discharged three times.
 The dead negro was about q years old. He was known in police circles as . turbulent man, having figured in several

 My babe was born seemingly fair, healthy child, but when she was three weeks old . swelling appeared on the back of her head, and in course of time broke. It did not heal but grew worse, and the sore spread from the sise of a dime to that of 6 dollar. I used all kinds of remedies that could think of, but nothing seemed to help; in fact, it grew worse. Her hair fell out where the sore was, and feared lt would never grow again. It continued until my aged father came on c visit, and when he saw the baby he told me to get Cuti- cura Soap and Ointment right away.
