COST OF MARKETING.

Mud Has Added Enough to 1t to Keep
Many Farmers Poor.
The fight for reduced freight rates
which the farmers, through their repre-
sentatives, used to wage so earnest
~ and necessarily against the railroad
companies, has now been brought near
er home.
Increased competition among rail-
road companies, dull times, and much
legislation friendly to the farmers.
have: diverted the attention of the pub
lie from the railroads, many of which
are in the hands of receivers, to tn.
farmers, themselves, and the roads thew
maintain.
The cost of the long railroad ship
ment to the metropolis has been re-
duced nearly to the minimum. Atten-
ton is now being directed to the wagon
road leading to the local market Here
in has lain hidden enemy to the pros
perity of the agricultural classes. The
monster, Mud, has added SO much to
the cost of marketing, and thus, indi-
rect'y, to the cost of production, that
thousands of farmers have failed,
where, with good roads, they would
have been happily prosperous.
Not that the farmers have found the
wrong they wish corrected is very close
| at hand, and has avital influence on
their welfare, they should not he slow
to correct the evil. Every poor road
robs them of profit and the pleasure OF
living, for amid their surroundings
mud-clogged highways mean enforced
isolation.
The transportation problem has be-
come simplified. Every man is his own
roa6-maker. Every neighborhood, town
and city has it's work to do. The proper
amount of labor and legislation will
correct the wrongs.-Good Roads.

to descend from the species Dos primo

black Welsh cattle is seen IN occasional

Sanitary Food for Cows.

If the COW has tendency to be COIL

meal in her ration. If her bowels be-
come too loose, decrease the oil meal and
increase the bran. If the COWS have
tendency to put on too much flesh, de-
crease the cornmeal or discard it alto

more cornmeal and less of the other
foods. If straw and corn fodder are
high, limit the feed to eight or ten
pounds day. If these rough foods
are cheap, give 20 to rs pounds day to
each COW and use what is uneaten for

Poor Calves Are Extensive.

If the calf is not a good one it would
be better to knock it in the head and
feed to the chickens, rather than raise
it for the "lairy. It does not cost
five cents more to raise a good
calf than it does poor one, and
the cow that will make 800 pounds of
butter a year has eaten NO more up to
the time she drops her calf than the
one that will make only $50. There is
not a fortune in the dairy business in
any event, but if we raise calves from
poor cows from which to make up our
