Third Term Darragl1 and
COVell.

The opposition to Mr.. Ddrragh, be-
cause he is serving his third term,
forget that the argument loses all force
when they advocate Mr.. Covell, who
also is h rd term officer and four
wear terms at that. Do his friends
kindly intend to let Mr.. COvell change
Offices every nine or ten years, before
~his term expires, SO that he can stay
in\tho rest IF his life? Looks some
thing like machinery, dunt 1t?
MIR. Covell is now drawing $3.50 an
nual salary, with all expenses paid
when away from home on official busi-
ness. If elected to congress he will
have the expenses Of a second congress
sonal campaign in two years, which
will occur about one year before his
present term as United States district
attorney expires. Further, as CON
gressman Mr.. COvell will be obliged
to pay the cost Of living ia Washing
ton in style that will be credtable
to him and his district.
Under the circumstances IL seems a
little greedy for Mr.. Covell TO want
the congressional nomination. There
would be nothing wrong in letting
him draw his handsome salary for the
next three years. Most men would
think they were we'll cared for and be
dDntent II they could draw So, 500 per
year, with expenses paid. for twelve
long years, the length Of Mr.. Coveli's
three terms.
BY all means renominate Mr. Dar-
ragh for the next two years and his
past experience Will make him a more
valuable congressman than ever before

A School OF Zoology.

DR.. Gustav Loisel, who is professor
OF zoology in the Sorbonne, is making
persistent efforts to have the mena-
gerie in the Jardin des Plantes adapt
ed to the needs of experimental SCI
ence. He would have 1t SO transformed
as to become school Of geological re-
search without at the same time ceas-
ing to be q place of entertainment for
the people. Such plan has been
partly carried out in Bronx park, so
says the New York Post, so that GER
tain fauna are permitted to live and
breed almost as il they were in the
wild" The experimental stations in
this country where marine animals
and plants may be studied have proved
of the highest value to science; and
the laboratory in connection with the
Naples aquarium has long been a IA
vorite resort for naturalists. Two of
DR.. Loisels suggestions are not likely
to meet with popular approval. One Is
to do away altogether with the monkey
house, which he says is infected with
tuberculosis, and the other is to dimin-
ish the number of the more formidable
wild animals to make room for beasts
whose habits may be more convent
emily studied. But in general there Is
no good reason why the geological col
lections of the world should not be
adapted to the needs of students Of ma
tural history who should have advan-
tages analogous to those already en-
joyed by workers in botany and in the
fine arts.

BUTTER PRICES.
Some Reasons Why They Are Main
tanned at High Figure.

Much speculation is INDUCED in
about the fact that with all the sup
posed great increase in creameries
the prices of butter still hold up.
Those who speculate forget two or
three things, says Hoard's Dairyman:
Cd That the COW is the source Of
the butter supply, not the creamery.
(2) That the more dense the COW
population becomes in any section, the
less proportion Of heifer calves are
raised.
CD That the increase in milk con-
sumption has beeen so great that a
very large share of the COWS Of the
country have been diverted from but
ter-making to that business.
(4) That the increase of cows in
this country is only about five per
cent. yearly, so it takes about 20
years to double the COW population.
60 That the progress of dairy ideas
among farmers is teaching them to
weed out the improbable cows, thus
reducing very perceptibly the milk
supply for Improbable butter-making.
(6) That the percentage of increase
of population is much greater than the
percentage of increase in COWS, while
the consumption of milk and butter
per capita has been steadily on the
increase. All these things tend to
strengthen the dairy business in all
its parts and keep prices to healthy
grade

GERMS IN MILK.
How They May Be Kept Out by Rea-
sonabe Care.

Feeding hay and dry grain just be-
fore or at milking time fills the air of
the stable with dust This dust settles
into the milk pail carrying bacteria
with it; thus increasing the germ con-
tent of the milk. Feeding dry corn
stover at milking time has the same
effect as the feeding of hay and grain,
only in more marked degree, since
corn stover usually contains more
dust and bacteria than does hay and
grain.
Wiping the flank and udder Of the
COW with damp cloth just before
milking will help reduce the number
Of bacteria which fall into the milk
pail. The practice of brushing cows
at milking time is undesirable. The
hair and dust which are thus set free
into the atmosphere settle into the
milk pail during the process of milk
ing and very materially aid in making
1t spoil.
Stripping COW dry, says Farm and
Home, tends to reduce the number of
bacteria found in the milk at the next
milking while leaving a small amount
of strippings in the udder increases
the number of bacteria at the next
milking. This is probably due to the
fact that the greater manipulation
necessary to thoroughly strip the COW
removes many bacteria which would
otherwise remain in the udder to null
tiply during the time before the next
milking.
The Globe-republican. [volume] (Dodge City, Kan.) 1889-1910, 1906-12-13
Keeping the Cows Clean.

Cows can be kept clean in the
stables by a little attention to the
length of the standing doors and the
height of same. If the place on which
a COW stands is too long she will be-
come dirty and it will be practically
impossible to keep her clean. If the
length of the platform is just great
enough so that the droppings will fall
beyond it, the COW will be kept clean
with ease. Cows differ in length and
this difference may be made up for by
adjusting the tying arrangements of
the cows to suit each case. It is a
great thing to be able to keep the
cows clean, through the entire win
ter, but this can easily be done.

DAIRY NOTES.

The quality Of feed for farm ami
mails is as important as quantity.
Under salttng butter is poor econ
omy. Nothing is so apparent as the
lack of salt in dairy products.
Never closely cover milk still warm
with animal heat. This will cause 1t
to hold fetid, cowy odor, and pro-
notes the growth of bacteria that
hasten souring.
The average size of the farm dairy
herd is three or four cows. These
can be made source of great profit.
Roots and silage are about equal in
value for fattening wether lambs. If
any difference 1t is in favor of the
roots.

NEW MILKING MACHINE.
Device That Is Winning Favor In
New Zealond.

From New Zealand comes the re-
port of a new milking machine that Is
being installed in one Of the dairies.
The new machine does not follow the
pulsating method at all, but milks by
the pressure of air bags on the teats
The process of milking is silent one
and the milk is drawn thoroughly, &C.
cording to witnesses of the operation
of the new machine. 1t is planned to
milk - cows at time with this ma
chine and with it little power is re-
CURED. The owners Of the new in
vention claim for it the following
points:
(a) As compared with all suction
machines
/. The teat is not congested by the
unnatural action of vacuum as a milk
extractor Hence the COW lets down
freely instead of resisting, and there
fore (a) there is no need for hand
stripping; OBJ the COW is not dried
off," and (c) no harm whatever is
done if the machine is left on longer
than needed.
2. Cleanliness-th milk does not
pass through rubber tubing.
(b) As compared with all known
attempts at noAsuction machines:
/. Absolute softness of fluid pres
sure as contrasted with pressure OF
anything solid.
2. Absence of wheels, pistons or
other mechanism in region of teat.
8. No Harvesting around the cows
body is included in the attachment
gear.

THE JERSEY COW.
How to Judge a Good Animal When
Buying.

Appearance comes first, as being
most readily judged Of. Solid colored,
or almost solid colored, animals are
very generally preferred, as matter
of taste, but white markings of great
err or lesser extent are no indication
either of admixture of the blood Of
another breed or of dairy inferiority.
The general health and apparent con-
stitution of the cows are matters Of
prime Importance to be looked into
She should show good depth through
the body when viewed from front or
rear, with capacious barrel, indicat-
ing a good feeder. The udder should
be large and well rounded out, both in
front and rear, with large and evenly
placed teats. The milk veins should
be prominent, the back level, the eye
large and placid, the hide soft and
pliable and of yellow color. The
scale of points drawn up and adopt
ed by the American Jersey cattle club
will prove an excellent and instructive
guide in judging Jersey COW.
The best way, however, of determin-
ing the merits Of any dairy COW, says
Farm and Home, is to use pair OF
scales to ascertain the quantity of the
milk and a Babcock tester to ascer-
tain its quality, or percentage of fat
The ancestry of the COW is also well
worthy of some attention; for If she
comes Of good dairy strains of blood,
similar qualities are to be expected
in her. As to the particular family
to which she may belong, it is we'll to
remember that there are good Jerseys
TO be found in all families.

TO The PRESIDENT
Mr.. Roosevelt Awarded the Nobel
Peace Prize Valued at $4,000
by Norwegian Parliament.
CABLES HIS ACCEPTANCE
Given in Recognition of HIS Ser
vices in Ending RussO-Japan-
cscWar-Win Establish In
dustriaI Peace Committee.

CnIistiania, Norway, Dec. 1O.-The
NJ wegian parliament Monday con-
ferred the Nobel peace prize upon
President Roosevelt.
The American minister, Mr.. PIERCE,
in an eloquent speech, thanked par
lament in the presidents name. Mr..
Pierce then read message from
President Roosevelt expressing his
deep thanks and saying there was
no gif; he could appreciate more.
The following is the text of Presi-
dent Roosevelt's dispatch:
Il am profoundly gratified and
touched by the signal honor shown
me through your body in comforting
on me the Nobel peace prize. There
is no gift | could appreciate more
ANA wish II were in my power to
fully express my gratitude thank
you for it and | thank you in behalf
OF the United States, for what | was
able to accomplish only as the repre-
sentative of the nation of which for
the time being | am president. After
much thought | have concluded that
the best and most fitting way to APP
ply the amount of the prize Is by
using it as fund to establish at
Washington a permanent industrial
peace committee. The object will be
to strive for better and more equit-
able relations among my countrymen
who are engaged, whether as capt.
talists or wageworkers, in industrial
AMI agricultural pursuits. This will
carry out the purpose of the founder
of the prize, for, in modern life it is
important to work for the cause Of
just and righteous peace in the in
Gustrial world as in the world of ma
tons.
Il again express to you the assur-
ance of my deep and lasting graft
tude and appreciation.
The Nobel peace prize is awarded
to President Roosevelt in recogni-
ton Of his services in ending the
Russo Japanese war. Candidates for
this distinction must be proposed by
legislative bodies, peace organiza-
tons or universities. 1t is under.
stood that the presidents sponsors
were Prof H. P. Judson, acting preSi-
dent of Chicago university; Prof.
Baldwin of Yale; Prof. Harberger OF
the University of Munich and the
faculty of Georgetown University,
Washington
The peace prize went last year to
Baroness Won Suttner, Of Vienna, and
in previous years to w. H. Creemer,
N. p, of England, Prof. De Martens,
Of Russia, and Henri Dunant, founder
of the Red Cross.
The Nobel peace prize is part OF
bequest left by DR.. Alfred Bern
hard Nobel, the Swedish scientist,
who died in 1896. BY his will a
large portion of his fortune was de-
voted to five annual prizes, each val
ued at about $4,000. They were
awarded for the most important dis
coyeries in physics, chemistry, physi-
ology or medicine; for the most dis
tinguished work of an idealistic ten
dency in the field of literature and
for the best effort toward the frater
nifty of nations and the promotion of
peace. The last named is awarded by
the Norwegian parliament The
other are awarded by institutions at
Stockholm.
