MAKE PLEA FOR FLUSH BOARDS
Lower Fox River Property Owners
Want Water Supply Dur
ing Summer

Appleton, Wis, May 12.-Riparian
proprietors all along the Fox river
from Menasha to Green Bay have
signed a mammoth petition to be for
warded to the secretary of war, ask
ing the government to investigate local
water power conditions and deny the
prayer of the residents of Oshkosh and
Fond du Lac to abolish flush boards on
the Menasha dam.
The discontinuance of flush boards
at the head water dam would result
in an extravaganza and useless waste of
water and incidentally would cause
the loss of thousands of dollars to
manufacturers. The removal of flush
boards wuOld injure if not demoralize
water power along the Fox river for
period of from three to six months
each year

A very noticeable feature in the i'm
provement Of dairy barns in the mid
die west is that Of arranging for the
keep of dairy cows in large sheds in
stead of stalls, as has been the custom
everywhere among up to date dairy
men, writes w. W. Stevens in Ameri-
can Cultivator. The shed plan seems
to be giving the greatest satisfaction
among those who have adopted it, and
none of them seems at all inclined to go
back to the old method Of handling the
dairy herd. We notice, in fact, that
majority Of the dairy barns that are
being built now have the covered barn
yard, with milking stalls attached
The care Of the cow is a matter of
greatest Importance when she is ex-
pected to bring in the most profitable
returns. To have her do her very best
she must have an abundance of fresh
air and light, as much comfort as pos
sible and a reasonable amount of ex-
ercise, not alone for humane reasons.
but that she may produce the most
that she as an individual is capable of
on the food supplied The common
practice of keeping cows shut up in
tightly closed stable, cramped ON
platform with their heads fast in rigid
stanchions for nearly twenty-four
hours day for six or eight months in
the year, is going to be given up for
improved and better plans.
The advantages of keeping COWS in
this way over ordinary stabling may
be summarized as follows: Cows keep
much cleaner and the milking stalls are
in a more sanitary condition; conse-
quently it is easier to produce clean
milk. By this method there is less
difficulty in providing cows with an
abundance of fresh air, and they are
more vigorous and healthy and have
better appetites than when kept in the
stable. Labor is saved, as the shed can
be bedded much more easily and quick
ly than can stalls. There is little sta
BILE cleaning to be done, and the manure
is hauled directly from the shed to
the field at any time most convenient
and when least damage Is done the
land by tramping.

Strange Taste In Eating.

Many strange dishes were eaten by
Dean auckland, the English clergyman
and geologist. At his dinner parties,
which were attended by leaders of sci
ence and literature, the menus were
often of a most eccentric character. On
one occasion picked horse tongue was
greatly relished by the guests until
they were told what they had eaten.
Alligator was served up as a rare deli
cacy and puppies occasionally and
mice frequently. At other times hedge
hogs, tortoises, ported ostrich and
sometimes rats, frogs and snails were
prepared for the delectation Of favor
ed guests. Henry Labouchere said that
the dean swallowed the mummified re-
mains of the heart Of Louis XIV. Of
France

For Dairymen to Consider.

The fact is beginning to dawn upon
the dai,ymen that it costs no more to
shelter and but little more to keep the
cow that will give from 300 to 500
pounds Of butter fat a year than it
does the average cow Of today that
only gives $50 pounds and that it is
possible for the average dairymen with
q little care in breeding and in study
ing the true type of the dairy cow to
become possessed of herd of them.

Hawaiian Challenge
Cup to Be Raced
for Afresh.

The famous blue ribbon yachting cup
of Hawaii the handsome Hawaiian
challenge cup, has been turned over
by T. w. Hebron, former owner of the
Gladys, to the trustees, as he does not
at the present time have a yacht to
defend a challenge and his next boat
will be too large to be eligible.
Mr.. Hobron's letter in this connec-
ton is as follows:
Honolulu, T. H. October %, 1906.
Mr.. Chas. s. Wilson, Chairman Trus~
tees for Hawaiian Challenge Cup,
City.
Dear Sir: AS have disposed of my
Yacht Gladys, with which 1 had the
honor of winning the celebrated Ha-
waiian Challenge Cup, September Is,
1899, 1 consider it proper to return the
cup to the trustees, as [ have no yacht
at present to defend a challenge.
Would suggest that the cup be put
m, for a race in the near future, as we
have a new yacht here, the Kapolei,
which. with her time allowance under
the rules for competing for the cup,
might make a very interesting and
close contest. Yours very truly,
T w. HOBRON.
AS time goes on the Hawaiian Chal-
lenge Cup becomes more interesting
and more valuable as the list of races
and names of the winners adorn the
trophy. 1t is now over seventeen
wears old and has been raced for on
four occasions The first race took
place in 1889, the competing yachts be

and Helene in hours, 81 minutes and
10 seconds.
The advent of the Bonnie Dundee
seemed to stop all interest in racing
for the cup, and the next race was not
sailed for seven years.
In the year 1899, T. w. Hebron had
a modern cruiser boat designed by an
American designer and she was built
in San Francisco and brought to Ha-
vail She was not designed for speed,
but for comfortable cruising, having
splendid accommodations below, and
not a boat that would be picked out
for a racer. The knowing ones of the
waterfront viewed her and expressed
opinions decidedly against there being
any possibility of her winning from the
lean, fush-decker racer Bonnie Dun
dee. This race, therefore, on the 18th
of September, 1899, was of considerable
interest. 1t became a sort of interna-
tional affair, for it was England
against America. The Gladys was
brought home a winner in the best
time ever made over the courses
hours, 16 minutes and Is seconds.
1t is rather a strange coincidence
IllGtL AdSC LUZ, THEN owner OF InS
Bonnie Dundee. held the cup for seven
years and for seven years the cup has
reposed in Mr.. Hobron's parlor.
The general conditions governing the
racing for the cup are as follows:
Yachts over five tons and not more
than ten tons, with the exception of
the yacht Helene, which was then
here, and although above the tonnage,
was made eligible. The tonnage rule
shuts out La Paloma and Kameham-
cha l. Yachts below the tonnage and
above the limit have appealed to the
trustees to be permitted to race for
the trophy, but have been prevented
because the deed Of gift clearly sets
forth the size of the boat it was in
tended for. The newest boat now to
strive for the honors is the Kapolei,
although, as the matter now stands,
the cup is in the hands of the trustees
and the new owners of the Gladys will
have to win it to prove title.
