SECRETARY SHAW MAKES
REPLY TO AN ATTACK

Lancaster Pa, Oct. 17.-Secretary Of
the Treasury Leslie NJ Shaw addressed
Republican mass meeting last night
in the court house here. Upon his arrival
in this city Secretary Shaw issued the
following statement
my attention Vas been called TO the
report published in some Of the opposition
papers, that l was requested by the Re
publican committee at Pittsburg 10 dis
cuss state issues One Of the papers went
so far as TO say that after / had de-
clined TO comply with the committees
request speech was prepared by the
organization and handed out to the news
papers as a bona-fide Shaw speech.
1T is not likely that any man on the
paper. devil or editor, would make such
statement on the street. for I presume
they are all truthful men, and nothing
could be further from the truth. Any man
with the rudiments OF good sense would
know that a member of the presidents
cabinet would not discuss state issues
elsewhere than in his own state and no
one in Pennsylvania has asked me TO so
much as so even refer thereto. To the
best OF my ability ! am teaching the
principles Of the Republican party and
that Is my only mission"

FEEDING CALVES.
The Results of Some Experiments with Angus Steer Calves
 Grain and Hay Fed.

The Nebraska experiment station gives the following account of experi- ments in feeding on hay with and without grain
 During the winter of 1902, 12 Aber- deen Angus steer calves were fed to determine whether or not small grain allowance added to a ration of alfalfa and prairie hay would prove more economical method of winter ing Six of the calves received no grain, while the other six had four pounds a day of corn, oats and bran in addition to the hay. The hay was 80 per cent. alfalfa and 20 per cent. prairie hay During the winter pe- riod, from January to April. those re- ceiving four pounds of grain per day made an average gain of to pounds per month, while those getting hay alone made B pounds per month. Fig uring all foods at the market price. it was found that gains on grain and hay cost $4.66 per 100 pounds, while the gains on hay alone cost six dollars per hundred, a striking difference in favor of grain with hay for winter feeding During the following sum- mer, while on the same pasture, all without grain, the winter grain-fed calves made an average gain of 60 pounds less than the thinner mo- grain calves. which put the latter be- hind only 20 pounds each at the end of the entire period. October 30 1903. The grain-fed calves, however were appraised 25 per cent. per hundred above the hayfed calves. showing them to have been somewhat better in quality, even at the later date The experiment showed that it is cheap CT TO feed calves some grain in win ter and this was the result in more marked degree the previous winter.

more completely what it takes gravity several hours to do.
 As the milk goes into the bowl it IS at once thrown to the outermost parts and fills the bowl completely until an opening is reached where it will flow out again.
 The surface Of the milk is on a lire parallel with the center, or axis, of the bowl. and is exactly in line with the cream outlet
 A eross-section through the bowl from this surface to the outside pre- sents much the same appearance as would a pan of milk after the cream has raised by gravity.
 The cream is on the surface, which might be called the top, and the heav- fer portions of the milk at the point farthest from the center, which would represent the bottom.
 With this understanding of the ar rangement of the milk in the bowl there are number of things to be observed which influence the separa- tion.
 The difference in length of time it takes to separate cream by gravity and by centrifugal force shows plainly that the time varies with the amount of force applied. The shorter the time the greater the force must be-
 Skim-milk from the separator con- tains less fat than that secured by the gravity system, showing that the great CT force causes more perfect separa- tion
 From the above statement the fol- lowing conclusions regarding the use of the separator may be drawn:
 1. If the amount of milk that passes through the separator in a given time Is a fixed quantity, any increase in the speed of the machine will tend to cause closer skimming be- cause of the greater force exerted.
 2. If the amount of milk that passes through in a given time is in creased and the speed remains the same the skimming will not be so per feet, for the centrifugal force is not exerted on the milk so long time
 It is evident, therefore. that the cioseness of skimming is the result of two factors-time and force. If either of these is decreased, the result will he poorer work. If either is increased, better work will result.

MILK SEPARATION.
Principles Governing the Extraction of the Butter Fat from
 the Milk.

The force that is used to separate the milk is known as centrifugal force, says Edwin H. Webster This force may be described as the pull that is felt when weight attached to 2 string is whirled about the hand It is the pull outward. and the faster the weight is whirled the stronger the pull becomes.
 In the old system of creaming. the separation is caused by the action of gravity. The fat globules. being light CT than the other portions of the milk, are forced to the top; that is, gravity acts stronger or pulls harder on the heavier portions than it does on the lighter. and the milk is gradually ar ranged in layers. the lighter portion at the top and the heavier portion at the bottom.
 The forcing action in the separator has precisely the same action on the milk, but acts outwardly from the cen- ter of the bowl the same as gravity acts downward from the surface, only many thousand times stronger, accom- plishing in a few moments and far

 As the cold increases, if you find that the stables are not warm enough, building paper, literally used and carefully put on. will help the matter. It is cheaper than anything else.- Farm Journal
 Good milk is the rest stuff for the calves at any time of the year. No- body who has common sense can deny that. But if you haven't the milk to spare, make up for the loss by adding either buckwheat shorts or wheat mid dlings; fed dry, not mixed with the skimmed-milk
 Rinsing milk pails and pans with cold water is all right; but follow the rinsing with a thorough scalding in pure water. That puts an end to the disease germs. They cannot stand hot water Do not use any cloths about your buttermaking that are not ss clean as the driven snow
