Lord Says His Country Needs I'm
migration Restriction.
Lord Brassey, accompanied by
Lady Brassey and Capt Parkingham,
inspected Ellis island recently and
was the guest of Commissioner
Watchorn at luncheon. Before leav-
ing the island Lord Brassey praised
the system of the immigration in
spection.
II am turning to study of the i'm
migra zion question" he said
This IS because in my own coun-
try it has become necessary to study
this question. England is in need of
some kind of restriction on the i'm
migrants who are pouring in. We
get the Immigrants rejected by this
country Your country gets the best
stock, While the inferior is admitted
by us by one hand and led and cared
for by the other. This is becoming
q serious drain on the national
charity.

they were adaptable to the English

always work to that end. am also

NOT READY 70 MOURN.
Bride Was Thinking Of Anything But
VI. Mourning Garments.

The pretty bride met so many ladies'
at the reception given by her hus-
bands cousin to introduce her that 1t
was impossible to keep up with them,
and so when the hall boy telephoned
up to know whether she was at home
to Mrs. James or Miss Richards she
always said she was. and took it for
granted they were family friends.
A Mrs. Martin was announced In
this way, and little Mrs. Anderson re-
ceived the stranger with cordial
gayety and began to chat to her Of
teas and matinees. Mrs. Martin was
q dismal person In rusty black and did
not seem to respond to merriment.
The bride racked her brain for CONVEX
sation and the guest eyed her with
growing disfavor. Finally the out
burst came when Mrs. Anderson said:
Il met you at Mrs. Towne's recep-
ton. Of course, didn't 1? find 1t so
hard to connect names with faces, but
I hope"
The visitor rose and broke In:
No, you did not meet me at any re-.
ception, and must say am sur
prised to find you like this. I've been
In the business off and on for twenty
years, and never saw one take 1t so
light as you do. l answer your note
to call and talk over mourning for
your husbands funeral, and you tell
me about the theeayter last night"
When the bride; lad sufficiently re-
covered from her Stuck she took the
note the other t5id out. It was signed
Mrs. Sanderson and was written from
the apartment just overhead, where
there had been a death the day be-
before.-New York Press.

Poor Farmers No More.

The time-worn expression, "the poor
farmer has come to be one of the
standing jokes. The fact is the farm
ers are no longer poor. Every town
Of 500 people or more in north Mis-
souri, now has at least one bank and
the bulk of the money on deposit be-
longs to the farmers. The deposits
are large, too. Few banks even OF
small capital carry less than $4,000
on their daily balances and many have
two and three times that amount.
Count the market price of the poor
farmers land, figure out the value
Of the stock. put in his hank account,
and you will find that the average
farmer is worth good deal more than
the average townsman.-No

Creamery Milk supply.

NO creamery should be established
where the milk from 400 or 500 cows
cannot be obtained. Fifteen years ago
it was believed that creamery could
be successfully run on the milk from
300 to $50 cows. That may have been
SO at that time. but at the present
time the expenses CT running cream
cry are very much greater than they
were fifteen years ago. The wages OF
men have advanced very much and
creamery supplies have in some cases
doubled in price. The commissions
for selling butter are larger than they
were, because it costs more to run
the establishments of the commission
men. 1t therefore requires larger
volume Of milk to produce the same
amount Of revenue Investigations In
the State Of Iowa show that large
number of creameries supplied by less
than 500 cows have been compelled to
suspend operations, Cue to the fact
that they could not secure enough milk
to yield them profit on their bust-
ness. It is for the advantage Of the
farmer to have his creamery supplied
by as many cows as possible, for the
reason that the less the cost of max
ing a pound of butter the greater will
be the price Of milk received by the
farmer. Thus in the largest factories
1t costs only one cent per pound Tor
making butter. This is equal to four
cents per cwt. of milk. In some OF the
smaller creameries it costs as much
as $.025 for making pound of butter.
Every farmer should encourage his
neighbors to keep more cows if they
are supplying milk to the creamery.
In some cases farmers that are promf.
nent in the production Of milk seem
to have a Jealousy in relation to the
matter, they being prominent In that
line. But they should understand that
the more cows kept the better 1t Is for
them. The other men are not COM
peting with them in the production of
milk, but are cooperating with them;
what benefits one will benefit the
others. Large 'crca;neries seldom fall.
This is because they are able to sell
all their products to the greatest pos
sible advantage. They are able to dis
pose of their b,,ttermilk at large prices
because they can send it in consider
able quantities to distant markets,
where they can secure permanent Gus
toners. The small creamery is un-
able to handle such trade, and when
they try it they frequently lose it be-
cause there comes tine when they
are unable 10 supply the quantity de.
mandod.
The very foundation of successful
creamery work is large milk supply,
and every man interested in the
creamery, whether he be the manager,
butter-maker or patron, should labor
for the increase Of the milk supply.
The limited milk supply is the danger
point. 1t is at this point that the
creamery is more likely to fail than at
any other, and If the amount of milk
be too limited to yield profit on the
returns, no kind of fine butter-making.
no amount OF skill in selling, and no
measure of cleanliness about the fac
tory can prevent its being failure in
the end.

Feeding Apples to Cows.

At this time of the year, when the
small apples from the orchard are be-
ing sorted out and disposed Of as by
products, 1t is q practice for many
farmers to feed some OF the wormier
apples and small apples to the cows.
A limited amount fed each day will
prove Of great help to the animals, NJ
though there is no great amount Of
nutriment In the fruit. The great
value comes from the presence Of
the fruit acid in apples; yet in the
feeding of apples great care is needed.
Large apples should not be given to
cows whole; liz fact, it is better If all
apples OF medium to large size are
cut in two before being fed Many
cow has been choked to death on large
apples One boy, known to the writer,
started to feed hungry COW apples.
She was SO eager for the fruit that
she tried to swallow one whole to
make room for some more. An apple
throat. 1t was only by vigorous work
on the part of the owner of the COW
that she was saved. He put both
hands on her throat and worked the
apple down whole A good way to
feed apples is in the form of pomace,
which is the remainder of the apples
after the cider has been pressed out
OF the ground mass This pomace con-
tains small amount q. nitrogen,
very small amount OF potassium and
some phosphorus. The vegetable
sugars are also present. The phos-
phorus is to large extent locked up
in the seeds, and is not likely to be
liberated unless the seeds with the
other pomace, is mixed with hay
which will retain them in the large
:stomachs and compel them to go
through their usual modes Of diges-
ton.
Calves that are to be raised should
not be left with the COW more than
twenty-four hours after birth. Feed
them for three weei,s with warm,
sweet milk just from the COW, how
ever, then begin to drop off the new
milk and add gradually sweet
skinned milk. At three weeks OF age
the calf will take some bright hay.
Place it in potato crate near enough
so that the calf can get at it and yet
not be apt to tip it over. It will pre-
vent bowel troubles and make the calf
grow nicely.
Scientific dairying requires close
study OF the feeds Of dairy cows.
