FREIGHT RATES RAISED.
Steamers on Tombigbee Announce an
 Advanee

Advance.
 Demopolis, March 21.--(Special )-- The fear that a raise in river freight rates would result after the combirla- tion in the management of the Tombig- bee and Warrior River boats. reported last week, was realized sooner than was expected, and the first boat to reach this place from Mobile after the combination announced a raise in the tariff on everything, and on some ar- ticles the increase Is 100 per cent.
 Six and oue-half inches of rain fell Sunday and Sunday night, and the river has risen nearly fifteen feet. A telegram yesterday from Columbus stated that he water registered I2 feet on the gauge at that place, but this re- port is questioned here.
 All trains were delayed yesterday on account of washouts.

HOLsTEIN-FREIsIAN CATTLE.


We also quote from an address of
Professor Carlyle, Of Wisconsin Ex-
pertinent Station:
ga farmer of Illinois, operating an
extensive dairy of over 200 COWS, is
delivering milk in Chicago on the
recommendation of the physicians
and surgeons there. He receives
twelve cents per quart for his milk
wholesale. On visiting his
farm, he gave me an idea which had
never heard presented before, and
which 1 am confident is going to be
elaborated, especially for the milk
supply of cities. The Physi-
clans and Surgeons Association, of
Chicago, frequently visit him on his
farm, and they have asked him if he
can give any reason why his milk has
more vitalizing power than any other
milk they can get. The gentleman
remarked that he had never thought
of such a thing; that he had always
considered one milk as good as
another, provided it had the same
percentage of butter fat and milk
solids. They remarked that if they
had patient that was very much
run down and weak, and they gave
him of the milk from his herd, they
found it had more life giving, vital
izing power than any other milk they
could get, even though it was no
richer in its chemical properties.
The point wish to make here is that
there rs such a thing as vitality in
milk, and that it is of equal, if not
greater, Importance. than its chemical
composition, especially for the milk
supply of cities. And there can be
no question but that the vitality of
milk is closely associated with the
vitality of the animal producing it.
Strong, vigorous cows, such as the
