LANDED IN CUSTODY

A Acquisition for San Diego Diamond
 Thief HOnOred Yesterday.

| Acquisition papers issued by the i governor of California, for the extra ditiOn of T. F.. Rowan, were yesterday 1 honored by Governor Kibbey and for warded to the proper officer in Tucson ] where the man is in custody awaiting return to San Diego, to answer to a i charge of grand larceny.
 Rowan was arrested in Tucson by Sheriff Pacneco on Saturday morning
 Had it not been for his intemperance and consequent carelessness, it is doubtful if he would have been molest- ed in Tucson, or in any event he had ample time to put further distance be- tween himself and the scene of his trouble had he felt the necessity of doing so. He arrived in Tucson on
 Friday morning and wired a San Diego friend that he was safe in Arizona Then he proceeded to indulge in strong drink and gave himself away to the
 extent of intimating that he was want
 ed but could not be arrested. His
 presence became known to the sheriff who was on the lookout Friday night
 he received a message from his San Diego friend that Tucson was un-
 healthy, whereupon he tried to hire a rig and get out of town. but being stranger none of the liverymen would accommodate him. The next morning he was arrested without a warrant being an Elk he called upon his lodge friends to help him and habeas corpus proceedings were instituted. The result was his liberation, but by the time he had gone to nearby saloon and treat
 ed his friends, a telegraphic warrant was received and he was again talk en into custody.
 Concerning his crime the Tucson Star says:
 Rowan was arrested last week in San Diego charged with having stolen a diamond stud from F. E. Thomas while on a jaunt to Escondido, Cal When tried in the superior court the case against him was dismissed be-

of land near enough to the business center of Phoenix so that a man could do business in the city and live on a small place in the country. Having this in view I have purchased so acres lying 34 mile west of the fair ground on the Christy road. The ground lays just right for subdividing into 3, 10 and 20 acre tracts and each tract fronting on the Christy coun- ty roads. The soil is of the richest alluvial and of the best straw berry land in the valley. With the land there is a water right in the Mar icopa canal and an independent lateral belonging exclusively to this tract Of land, all the way from the canal to the land. I am going to put this tract on the market at S100 to $125 per acre for short time. This is far below the value of land in this immediate vicinity and I am Justified in saying that the surroundings are of the best in the valley. It also has the proximity of the street car to Phoenix. If you want something that will double in value in a year or two. Here is your chance.

What Is Meant by A. II. O. Cows

An A. r. 0. cow is one that has been
officially tested and produced the re-
quired amount of butter fat in seven
consecutive days. The letters stand
for the phrase Advanced Registry, Of
fetal
If the cow calves at two years or
under she must make 70 pound; Of
butter fat in seven consecutive days in
order to become an A. r. O. heifer A
three year-Old must make at least S.S
pounds, four-year-old at least 1914
pounds, and a fve-year-old or over
must make II pounds Of butter fat.
Whether the cow enters the A. r. O.
does not depend upon the amount of
milk that she produces, but upon the
amount of fat that she gives in seven
consecutive days
The record must be made under the
supervision of an officer Or assistant
of an agricultural experiment station
or agricultural college or by some per-
son whose integrity and ability are
vouched for by the director or by the
professor of dairy husbandry.-H s

Floor of the Cow Stable.

Writing in National Stockman and
Farmer on the subject of COW stables,
L. w. Lightly says: 1 prefer to have an
earthen floor in my cow stable, though,
Of course, the manure gutter is cement
and liquid proof. l believe the cow is
more comfortable on the yielding, non
conducting ground than on hard plank
or rocky cement 1t is true that the
earth will wear away and has to be
filled up and leveled off occasionally,
the doing of which has just reminded
me of this: The floor of the stall
should be level or slope back toward
the gutter very little; there should be
no rough ridges or hard, uneven places,
as [ could not nor can the cow rest in
comfort on such bed. A small guam
tity Of gravel and earth we'll tamped
can be made perfectly smooth and lev
ell, and light covering of sawdust
we'll moistened will help to keep it in
place.

WINTER CARE OF COWS.
How the Good DairEInan VIII Pro-
vide For His CattIe's Comfort.

How the Good EairE1nan VIII Pro-
vide For His Csittle's Comfort.
1t is some work to keep Il lot of cows
clean in the stable, writes correspond
ent of Tribune Farmer. No one will
deny that But the farmer who cares
anything for the real comfort of his
herd will willingly do all in bis power
to make them as neat as possible. Here
are some of the things he will do:
The dairyman will have the platform
on which his COWS stand slant backward
slightly-not too much, for that would
tire and perhaps permanently injure
the cows that must stand upon it such
a large part of the time He will see
to it that the long cows stand where
the platform is longest and the short
ones on the shorter planks. He will
do his best to have the stanchions
which keep the cows from creeping up
at times when they are apt to foul
their sleeping place. He will provide
some kind of litter on the floor for the
COWS to lie on. This may be straw. if
he has it to spare, and there is nothing
better for the bedding than clean straw
Some have a way of putting the horse
manure under their COWS for bedding
This surely must give the COWS an I'M
pleasant smell and more or less faint
the milk
Ii horse manure is used at all, it
should be in the gutter behind the cat
tie to absorb the liquid manure This
is most essential thing, for the man
who let's this part of his barnyard fer
tiliZer drip through a hole bored in the
stable floor in that way deliberately
of us who can afford to do this, and
yet it would scare us if we knew what
losses we incur every year through
that anger hole in the stable floor
But bedding and lttering the gutter
is not ali that needs to be done to in
sure neat cattle. There remains the
most particular work of all. The man
who would keep his COWS clean will
have a good curTycomb and brush and
keep them in the stable within handy
reach at any time, and he will use them
too. Every day the comb and brush
must be called into play With me |
take the time for this work when my
COWS come into the stable, after hay
ing been out to drink in the forenoon.
Then the sides and tanks are compare
lively dry, so that everything may be
removed with little effort
Then the man who is tidy about his
barn will brush his COWS before he
milks them morning and evening with
a cloth of some sort An old bran sack
is better than nothing Every particle
of filth should be brushed away, so
that none may find it's way into the
milk pail. These precautions will take
cows through the winter season, so
that they will come out sleek and neat
in the spring.

There is no question whatever about
the powerful influence which feed has
on butter, says Farmers Advocate Ex-
perienceS dairymen who have made d
study of this condition will tell you
that whole oats and coarse hay will
make hard, crumbly butter, while
ground oats and clover produce a good
quality.
Oats have a great influence, but
more prominent when fed in combina-
ton with something else.
Linseed meal, if fed in large quanti-
ties. makes & soft product but q nor
NAL condition is noticed when but a
moderate amount is fed.
AS a milk stimulator the oil is very
valuable, but it is almost too expensive
to be used very commonly.
COrnmeal fed with coarse folders in
large rations makes very firm butter,
but finer mold is found when other
grains are mixed with it.
In the south cottonseed meal is used
very extensively, and a hard butter is
the result, while bran and shorts pro-
d'Ae a normal composition.
Zoo many potatoes will bring a very
poor quality of butter. There is but
little nutriment in them, but if grain is
added an excellent article is the result.
Timothy and tubers have no value as
buttermakers, nothing better than a
hard, tallowy substance being the re-
suit.
Ensilage is always good if an excess
i've amount is not fed.
