Overlooking the dairy cow has diff

COW has been overfed, writes III. G.
Van Pelt in Jersey Bulletin. In a gem
eral way it may be said that the diges-
tive tract becomes weakened, the cow
sickenS, rejects more feed, often fol-
lowed by impaction, and in some cases
is ruined forever even though she does
not die. More often, however, she re-
cuperates, but seldom, if ever will a
COW once Overfed have the strength
and power to digest and assimilate
food, and when subjected to heavy
feeding she will easily get overfed,"
refusing to eat, at which time she de-

source Of endless worry and trouble to
the feeder.
There should be a definite plan in
view in feeding any class Of farm ami

Healthfui youngster throughout.
To accomplish these ends milk and
grain should be fed in limited amounts

diana Railroad, with offices at Kan
kakee, ILL.,, there was in the town a
clustering coal merchant, somewhat
larger even than Mr.. Shonts, who did
not like the way the railroad officials
treated him. He would make the air
blue whenever he thought of the
way " them boys who operated the
railroad were handling him." On
one occasion he started for the presi-
dents office, with the intention of
cleaning up the place." The sub
ordinates each received flashing
from his tongue before he reached
Mr.. Shont's room. When he entered
the office of the general manager his
immense beard was bristling with
rage, and food of profanity poured
forth with vehemence that would
not be stayed. At last Mr.. Shonts
could stand it no longer. He seized
the beard of the irate man tightly in
one hand, and with the other dou-
bled into a fist he pummelled the
belligerent coal dealer until he could
hardly see and cried for mercy. Then
he was released and allowed to de-
part.

Perjury in the Courts.

A Toronto Judge complains of the
large amount of perjury in the
courts. It is doubtful whether we
follow up suspected cases of perjury
as vigorously and as constantly as we
should. Unless a decision of some
importance is to be upset by proving
a witness guilty of perjury, there is
a general tendency to let him go, al
though his evidence may not be be-
1ieved. Yet this is probably what
produces the large amount of per-
jury which confuses justice and often
works the gravest injustice. If every
apparent case OF perjury were prose-
cuted by the Crown officers, precisely
as they would prosecute a suspected
case of burglary, we should have far
less Of it.-Montreal Star.

his sutton, and he, in revenge, &C.

he tradition. were the first roses that
doomed on earth since the loss Of

Then, according to a Mussulman ira
itiOn, the rose is thus accounted for:
Then Mohammed took his journey to

ENFORCE THE LAWS.

ALL LAWS on statute books or passed by Congress,
Legislature or Village Board OUGHT TO BE ENFORCED.
Some laws UNNECESSARY, some are UNJUST, some
are sometimes DOWNRIGHT BAD. They ALL ought to
be faithfully enforced. If think it would be WRONG for
me to obey law ought to BREAK it but should be will
ing to SUFFER THE PENALTY and not try to escape
the law. The QUICKEST AND BEST way to have bad
law repealed is to enforce it thoroughly
has been the in country for long time for
officers to enforce the laws which pleased them the
muny which elected Them and refuse enforce other laws
The result of this system has been BLACKMAlL, PER-
JURY, GRAFT, CORRUPTION, BRIBERY and POLIT-
lCAE FILTH on the part of those who political
wants had something to gain from Them and ANARCHY
on the part of citizens generally.
For the United States the ENFORCEMENT OF
EXISTING LAW is much more important than the MAX
ING OF NEW LAWS. That is reason why it is FAR
MORE IMPORTANT to elect HONEST MEN to office
than who belong to the PARTY you believe in To elect
dishonest help govern you because he belongs
