Cows of the Primer.

There is a wide difference between
the schoolbooks of the present and
those of long ago. When we first went
to school we read the lesson in our
primer something like this: "See the
COW. Is not the cow nice? Can the
cow run? Can the COW run as fast as
a horse?" But the latest style of read
ing is by the average youngster about
as follows: "Git on to the cow. Hain't
she butte? Sure she is corker! Can
the COW get move on herself? Can
she hum it like a boss? No. She amt
I'm it wild de hoss."

A Curious Wedding Present.

Among the Brass river tribes of
west Africa when young couple get
married it is the custom for the old
est member of the brides family to
present the bride with a plot of ground
six feet long. This is for the grave
Of her family and herself when they
die
The first member of the new family
who dies is buried about twenty feet
below ground and the next one almost
sixteen feet, and this goes on until all
the family die and are buried. The
grave holds them ALL and this, they
think, prevents them from being sep
arated
This grewsome wedding present is
the one most valued by the bride, the
favorite native saying being, when
all other things are gone this re-

Va1ue of Our Dairy Products.
At the Louisiana Purchase exposition
the Importance of the dairy industry
will be shown in the excellence of the
exhibits The vast importance Of the
industry has been in a measure over
looked. 1t is not generally known that
the products of the dairy for one year
in the United States are Of greater val
ue than the output of all the anthracite
and bituminous coal mines combined,
says w. c. McCarty. But the census
report establishes this fact. Indeed, the
value Of the dairy is greater than all Of
the minerals mined in the United
States if iron be excepted. The dairy
products for year easily outrank in
value wheat or cotton. The last census
report shows that the years dairy
products were valued at $472.216, 1873,
while the wheat crop brought $685., 945,-
800, and the value of the cotton manu-
features was 1928, $50, III.
Demand For Buttermakers.
There is a greater demand for first
class buttermakers today at larger sal
aries than we have ever had before,
said Professor G. L. Mckay in an ad-
dress before the Minnesota dairymen's
convention. We have had more calls
for makers at salaries Of $1,000 per
year than we could supply. This was
not because we did not have good men,
but because we did not have men
enough to so around with all the nee
essary qualifications.
Buttermakers should enter butter in
the educational contests and should
occasionally attend some good dairy
school if they wish to keep abreast of
the times. A great deal more will be
required of the buttermaker, of the fu-
ture than has been required in the
past The competition will be greater,
with higher skilled men entering it.
Many of our brightest four year college
men are taking up 6airying as a life
profession.
California Buttermakers Alive.
Rumor comes from the Pacific coast
that a special train will carry the but
termakers of California and their
friends to the st. Louis fair in Octo-
Der, 1904, at the time OF the national
creamery buttermakers' convention
The western butter people, it is de-
clared, will try to get the convention in
1905 or 1906.

Ruined by a Receding Sea.

Castle Rising is an instance of decay
brought about by a receding sea, the
town, once place of considerable i'm
portance, giving way to Kings Lynn
as the waters retired. A memory of
the former relative positions of the two
places is kept alive by the lines:
Rising was a seaport town
VIII IN Lynn was but a marsh;
Now Lynn it is a seaport,
And Rising fares the worse.
But, though it lost it's commercial val
lie, it retained it's political status, re-
turning two members down to the re-
form act of 1892 At that time it had
three voters on it's poll list, but the only
person legally entitled to exercise the
right of voting was the rector

The customer had a map OF the foot

public for the first time.
In the evening the largest crowds
were out, and fully 5000 eople were
gathered on the ground at 8 o'clock.

pieces under the management Of Vic

some length that delighted the vast
crowd, and the band is entitled to
thanks.
