The man who would get all from his
live stock it is possible for them to give
him is the man who feeds and cares for
them intclligently. There are thou
sands of animals that Will be turned

been half-starved during the winter.
This is particularly true of horses, who
have had little work to do. Their own
er has worked on the plan that if there
was no work for the horse 1t should
have only just enough food to sustain
life; he forgets that stored-up vitality
Is necessary for the animal to do the
heavy spring work of the farm. The

IL Your Dairy Farm q successf


Are you making all there Is to be
made in the dairy business? If not,
why not? This is question which
every dissatisfied dairyman may well
ask himself When business man or
manufacturer finds his business is not
paying to suit him he seeks for the
causes Of loss and strives to eliminate
them.
If we investigate we shall find that
the successful dairymen attend to every
little detail that affects their business.
They look at everything from bust
ness standpoint save wherever any
thing can be saved. and discard ami
mails or methods that don't pay.
If you are not one of the success
full dairymen. look around and see why
you are not. There is a reason for
everything, and when you know the
reason you are in a position to remedy
the trouble. If you have no liking for
your business, the sooner you change
to something you do like the better it
will be for you and those dependent up
on you. Have you tested your cows
Individually and discarded those which
show by their own performance that
they are not profitable? The Babcock
test and the scales will show which
are profitable and which are not and it
is sheer shiftlessness not to apply such
Il test. Indianapolis News.

TENINO TO TACOMA.
Northern Pacific Will Build Fifty Miles
of New Line.

Tacoma, May 1O.-Official confirma-
tion of the statement made few weeks
ago that the Northern Pacific railway
is to build new line into Tacoma via
Steilacoom and the Narrows has been
received. 1t was in the form of res
olution formally filed in the office of
the secretary of state at Olympia by
representatives of the Port Townsend
Southern railroad. The Port Town
send Southern is owned by the North
srn Pacific, and its line runs from
Tenino to Olympia.
The resolution bears date of Taco
ma, February 10, 1906" as the time of
its adoption by the directors of the
Port Townsend Southern, and reads as
follows:
Resolved, that this company estab-
fish. build and operate a branch road
in the state of Washington upon the
route following, to-wit:
Commencing upon the main line
of this company at some point at or
near Tenino, in Thurston county
thence in northerly direction to the
waters of Puget sound; thence along
Puget sound to the city of Tacoma, in
Pierce county.
CAN of which branch railway will
lie in the counties of Pierce and Thurs
ton and will be of the estimated length
of fifty miles,
The formal filing of this resolution,
making clear the Northern Pacific s
plans. would indicate that the road
has completed the purchase of all or
the greater part of the waterfront
property it needs in the vicinity Of
Steilacoom and along the Narrows
1t is probable that much of the recent
buying of property in these localities
by private parties, ostensibly for them
selves, has been done for the Northern
Pacific. Some Of the land it needs the
road will have to condemn.

CHANGING Lots for swine.

Where swine are raised in sufficient
numbers so that they are herded in
small Enclosures, it is essential to
change these lots yearly if one would
avoid the danger of cholera or other
diseases. The way to accomplish this
to the best advantage is to have the
swine distributed in small colonies. each
with Il movable house Have the lots
of double size using onehaf of each
lot during the early part of the season
and the other half at the latter part.
This will carry one through the season
with little danger Of trouble. and then
these lots should he abandoned for
swine, being cultivated the next year
and new lots provided for the swine
This Is considerable trouble to he sure
but there is no way more certain to
avoid disease than this. Particularly
is this plan valuable in sections where
the soil is inclined to be heavy so that
the filth made by the swine does not
drain into the soil readily.

Miners GO TO WORK
RESUMPTION In The Anthracite
REGION THURSDAY,
Convention In Scranton Ratifies
Agreements in New York.
Mitchell Says a Victory Has
Been Won in Securing a Signed
Scale.

New York, May 9.-After carrying
on negotiations for nearly three
months the subcommittee representing
the anthracite mine workers and the
operators of Eastern Pennsylvania
have agreed to continue the award of
the strike committee for another three
years. or until March 81, 1909, and
the men will return to work as soon as
practicable, probably Monday. All
miners who have not committed acts
Of violence to persons or property will
be re-emplOyed and no one will be dis
eliminated against because of any &C.
ton he may have taken in the strike.
Scranton. Pa, May 9.-Work will
be resumed by the mine workers
throughout the anthracite field to-
morrow morning. This was decided
upon at the closing session of the con-
vention held yesterday afternoon. At
the morning session the arrangement
entered into on Monday in New York
between the operators and the sub
scale committee was formally ratified.
A few of the radicals once more
took the floor when the motion to rat
ify the Monday agreement was made,
and urged that the suspension be
turned into strike, but they were
hopelessly in the minority.
The convention adopted resolutions
condemning the state constabulary and
providing for the mine workers as an
organization taking an active part in
politics in the nomination and support
of legislative candidates.
President Mitchell was not present
during the earlier proceedings of the
convention. When he entered the
hall he was vociferously applauded
and was called upon for speech. He
said:
'"This will probably be the last time
that l shall address you, and it might
be we'll for me to say one or two
things. Some are inclined to believe
that because we have not secured an
advance in wages or any improvement
in the conditions of employment we
have not accomplished anything. l
want to say that l believe you have
taken the most advanced step in the
history of this movement.
lyon have secured what you have
never before secured-a signed agree.
ment with the operators. It is an
agreement which is not entered into
with the United Mi 10 Workers, but
with the officers of that organization;
they have signed an agreement with
your national president and your dis.
trict officers.
Last summer made tour through
this region. l urged the mine work.
ers to come back into the organization.
At that time there were only 1000
members. At the close of that year
there we're so, 600 members in the or
ganization. Had not that tour been
made there would have been reduc-
ton in wages, according to reliable in
formation that l have in my possession
Information that the railroads were
ready to increase the working day
from nine to ten hours; to require the
engineers to work seven days in the
week and to require the firemen to
work twelve hours instead of eight. If
this be true, then we have won great
victory"

LICENSES REVOKED
NO LIQUOR TO Be SOLD IN San
FRANCISCO.
Saloon Men Who Have Begun
Erection of Temporary Build
ings Advised that no Licenses
Will Be Granted for Some Time
to Come.

San Francisco, May 12.-That the
authorities here have no intention of
loosening the tight grip on the reins
which have held the liquor dealers in
check since the city suffered its great
disaster was made plain yesterday by
the emphatic declarations of Mayor
Schimtz. When asked as to the like
lihood of the saloons being allowed to
open in the near future, the mayor not
only denied that there was POSSIBLE
ity of such action being taken, but
added that he had decided + that all
drinking places should be- closed for
an indefinite period. ~41se>ssszs
He attributed the remarkable alb
sance of crime and the unexceptional
order which has prevailed in the city
since the confiagration to the fact that
the edict against the selling of liquor
had been rigidly enforced. This stand
of the mayor was emphasized yester-
day afternoon when the board of police
commissioners met and unanimously
endorsed suggestion made ty the
mayor that all saloon licenses now in
existence be revoked.

Advised to Quit Rebuilding.

A number of saloon proprietors
have in the course of construction
temporary buildings in which they
hoped soon to dispense liquors. To
these the commissioners issued a
warming, advising them that the num-
Der of saloon licenses to be issued in
the future would be greatly curtailed
and that it was premature for them to
incur any expense in the way of tenn
porary building operations.
In San Mateo county, just over the
border, the supervisors recently al
lowed the saloon men to open their
places of business. Thousands of
men and women flocked over the bor-
der and INDUCED in drunken orgies.
1t produced the nearest approach to
riotous conditions that has existed
in the city since the great catastrophe.
Chief of Police Oman appealed to
Sheriff Mansfield, of San Mateo county,
begging him to see that all grog shops
within his jurisdiction be closed.
Sheriff Mansfield has made answer that
he would close all drinking places,
despite the action of the supervisors
of the county, even if it was necessary
for him to go to the extent of calling
upon the militia to aid him in the
work.
