The Florida agriculturist., 1906-06-20

ern states, L can honestly say that in
my judgment, conditions are more
nearly ideal here than there, and
therefore the success of the industry
awaits only the man.
With us we are ten miles above
the Texas fever quarantine line, and
therefore have nothing to dread from
the cattle tick. We have a clear spark
ling spring that furnishes an abund-
ance of water for stock and dairy
purposes, and remains 5S +. Sundays
and week days year in and year out.
We have about 80 cows, and heifers
that will soon be fresh, make little
butter, but ship most of our product
as cream to the East Tenn. Dairy
Co, of Chattanooga, a cooperative
concern owned and operated by the
dairymen of east Tennessee
We raised the roughage (silage and
hay) for the cows and work stock,
have between 30 and 60 acres of wheat,
dairy pay the running expenses of the
farm, so the wheat, hogs and young
stock will be practically clear money.
We have some fine calves that are
being highly spoken of by those who
see them, and since the calf of today
is the cow of the future, and as so
many fail here, and fall later like
houses built upon sand, it may in
terest some to know how we raise
them.
We let the calf remain with its
dam for about II lheurs, not often
longer, the first milk from the COW
seems to supply the want of nature
as nothing else can. We then let the
calf get hungry before trying to
teach it to drink, as experience has
taught me that this is better not
only for my temper but for the future
good of the calf as it will not drink
till it is hungry and when it is
hungry, it requires but little cOaXing
to teach. 1 put my hand over its
nose forcing its head down to the
bucket of milk, put two fingers well
spread out into its mouth, and it
sucks the milk up between them,
the fingers are gradually withdrawn.
and frequently before the first lesson
is done the calf drinks. After a
couple of weeks, skim milk is gradlI-
ally substituted for the whole milk
till at the end of four to six weeks
it has all skim milk. The milk is
fed warm from the COW or separator,
never cold milk, that is one of the
most frequent causes of scOurs. An
other fruitful cause is wet, filthy
quarters, they must have a dry bed.
AS soon as they will eat it they,
have hay of some kind, and d little
ensilage, but no grain. They might
grow faster, L know they would, but
we want them to have a capacity
of utilizing a lot of home grown
feed. The cow that can't do this is an
COW, and it is cows that
we want, not fat calves. If anyone
doubts that skim milk is good for
calves or that good calves cannot
be raised without grain, he is cor

We ought to say to all the people
who are disturbed very much in their
minds about the result of County Local
Option running the towns and the bust
ness of the country generally, if such
calamity should come upon us we
would want to say to these good people:
Nov sleep on my beloved; take your
rest; the country is not going to be
betrayed into the hands of your enc
mics to be crucifed." We have observed
recently that these howlers break out
frequently when we say anything that
would lessen the number of saloons in
the country. Let them yell; the grand
old country can live without saloons;
it's salvation does not depend upon the
revenues derived from the saloons, but
it depends entirely upon the revenue
derived from property. Property ought
to bear it's just taxation, but taxes
ought never to be levied upon the weak
nesses and appetites of men and taken
from suffering women and children.
so howl on, my beloved, if you cannot
sleep.

Liquor Hearing
Ohio Hears Argument on Importan

Attorney Harry Thompson appeared
for the liquor people before the House
Committee of the General Assembly,
January 80 and 81. He first attacked
the Woman's Local Option Suffrage bill,
urging, in the first place, that the chiv-
airy of men was sufficient to take care
of women properly; in the second place,
that womans local option suffrage was
of doubtful constitutionality; and third,
that it tended directly to undermine the
home and break down social institutions
founded upon the home.
His flimsy arguments were easily re-
futed before the committee by Mr.. and
Mrs. Clark, representing the w. G. T. u.
The chivalry of men had not prevented
unbOunded cruelty to women through
the sale of liquor. The legislature could
confer the suffrage upon any persons to
whom the Constitution did not prohibit
it. The prohibited classes are named,
and women are not among them. They
already vote on school questions, and
this is constitutional. AS to undermin-
ing the family, Mrs. Clark made the
crushing retort that it was not in very
good grace for an agent representing
the liquor traffic to come before COM
mittee talking about danger to family
institutions, seeing the persistent as
sault on the family perpetrated by sa-
looms.
The committee reported the bill out

CORVALLIS, OREGON,
TUESDAY EVENING MAY !, 1906.
THE OREGON EXPERIENCE.

Most of the newspapers in
the state profess to believe that
the new primary election law has
been demonstrated to be a bowling
success. Perhaps it has, though
some of the results tend to discredit
that view. 1t has certainly demon
strated that personal ftnessand mer-
it are not so valuable assets in Sc
curing a nomination as are organ
ization and dollars. 1t is notorious
that on nominating day, the farm
ing population was largely at sea on
the question of what candidates to
support. The same conditions,
in perhaps less degree, was not
ably true of urban electors. 1t was
then and there thatthe organizetio
promoted by use of money in secur-
ing workers at the polls and other
wise had a telling effect. This
luxury the less wealthy candidate
could not afford. In more than
one instance on state Offices the
lack of it is believed to have chang
ed the result.
Analysis ofthe primary campaign
and its outcome shows beyond
question that it cost every candi.
date a large sum of money, that the
man who spent the least money
was handicapped, that there will
always be times and instance:
where the nomination will depend
on the amount of money spent
that on the whole money is bette
asset for getting a nomination thar
is merit, and that the boss, through
his superior organization, can prob
ably accomplish more in controlling
the outcome than he did under tn
convention system. The state i
to an expense of many thousand
of dollars, and as far as can be see
the tickets are no better. thoug
probably no worse than would hav
been evolved by conventions. Ths
the law from partisan standpoint
is good thing for the democrat
:. is certain. That it will remain i
effect is entirely likely. becaus
having once felt the new nomina
ing power, the electors will not

CAMP GIVEN UP.
Creffie1d Said to Have Disap
peared-Fol1owers Leav-
ing Waldport.

There are signs that the Crefaeld
campingproposition at Waldport has
miscarried. Two of those who
started for the rendezvous recently
arrived in Corvallis yesterday, and
a third passed out to Albany on
today's train. CreEeld himself, is
said to have been two or three
days at the camp and he then dis
appeared and has not since been
seen. The belief is that all the
others will within short time. re-
turn to their homes, and that Cref-
field will go elsewhere to carry out
his devilish enterprise.
People familiar with the situation
are convinced that the residents of
the vicinity of the camp turned out
to be hostile to the undertaking, and
through fear Of bodily harm, Cref-
field abandoned his plans. Mrs.
Starr who deserted seven months
baby and another small child in
Portland Saturday to join theparty
is said to be in Alsea. She arrived
here Sunday and is supposed to
have traveledmost of the way to AL
seaon foot. A story of her desertion
of her home and children appears
in last nights Portland Journal.
Crefield tells his dupes now that
he cursed San Francisco and that
is why the western metropolis is in
ruins, and that he has a similar
curse On Portland and Corvallis.

THE BENTON EXPERIENCE.

They say the primary election
law is good thing. Undoubtedly,
those who put up the job that de-
feated William Jolly for the NOM
ination think so. He is a good
man and had lots of friends who
wanted him renominated, but the
jobbers knew the trick by which to
let him down and didn't hesitate
to spring the trap.
In the same way they took votes
from Hawley and gave them to a
former democrat to such an extent
that man actually born and reared
within its limits scarcely got a plur-
ality of the votes of the county.
AS to the others who got railroaded
our of nomination by the combine,
each probably knows in what part
OF the neck he got the axe, and
just what was the influence that
put it there.
IT the primary law were given
fair trial and voters were left free
to act on their own information,
as the trainers of the law contem-
plated, it would doubtless work all
right. It would then give a fair
test of the party sentiment. But.
when by secret agreement, as was
the case in Benton, certain candi-
dates agree to stand by each other
to down others, and when good men
are sacrificed by tricks of jugglery
and jobbery, the law cannot besaid
to be universally satisfactory. Ex-
perience here has demonstrated that
it Is as easy to be unfair under its
operation as under the convention
system.

FROM ALBANY NOW.
Transmission Wire Completed
and Current urned on.

The wheels at the electric light
plant stood still last night. They
are not not to run anymore in Cor
wallis. They have been in service
in supplying Corvallis with light
for something like twenty years,
but their usefulness here is ended.
In few days, the work of dis
mantling them will begin, after
which they will be shipped to Sea-
side, where the work laid down by
them here is to be taken up there
The changed conditions are due
to the fact that Corvallis electric
lights are now made by power
from the Santiam ditch. A new
generator was recently installed in
the Albany plant for the Corvallis
service, and transmission line has
been under construction for several
weeks. 1t was connected up yes
terday noon, aud the current was
turned on at one O clock in the af-
ternoon. The lights were all or
throughout the afternoon in order to
give the electricians opportunity tc
adjust things. The transmission
wire brings in voltage of 2,2oe
while the plants voltage was only
I, 100 which made readjustment:
necessary. Even with precautions
half dozen arc lights in the south
ern and central portion of towr
were burned out. They will all b.
repaired and in service tomorrow
night.
The transmission wire consists o
three aluminium cables of sever
strands each. One wire is at tn
top of the pole and the other tw'
are at either end of a five foot eros
arm three feet below. The usua
transmission wire is of copper, bu
copper is 28 cents a pound nov
30 miles of cable at that figur
comes high and the aluminium
resorted to. The latter answers a
purposes, but permits larger los
of current in the process of tran:

!, and switchboards arrive, 1000
,, volts of current will be brought ov
er the transmission wire into Co,

The redeeming feature of the
primary law is Statement Number
I. In principle, it is right, and in
the end, If Oregon voters are what
they ought to be, it will triumph.

OYSTERS FROM JAPAN.
Will try 70 Grow Them at
Yaquina- Shipment Receiv-
ed for that Purpose.

M. M. Davis is planting japanese
oysters in Yaquina Bay for expert
ment. Thirty boxes of the bi.
valves, each box weighing $50
pounds, passed over the G. & E.
Saturday, and were planted in the
Davis beds near Oysterville the
same evening. The oysters are of
large size, measuring from four to
II inches in length and four to five
inches in width and are two years
old and over. They came from
remote part Of Japan, and two weeks
after being packed in the boxes,
reached Yokohama, where they
were Immediately transferred to the
steamer Nicomedia and brought to
Portland. The Japanese oysters,
says the Albany Herald, like those
native Of the Pacific Coast, live and
multiply in cold water where the
Eastern oysters cannot increase.
Many of the oysters in the boxes
are dead owing to the long time
they had been out of water. When
ordered by DR.. Davis the instruc-
tions were to take them trotn the
beds to Yokohama, there to be
placed in the water over one steam
er so as to revive them after being
out of water for two weeks before
they were shipped across the Pa.
ci6c. But this order was ignored
and the oysters on arrival in Yoko-
hama were Immediately placed or

! shipment reached here yesterday
many of the oysters, especially ths
large ones. were dead. DR.. Davi
