Reward of Skilled Feeding.


Many people have the idea that if
they feed their mich COWS an abund-
ant supply of food it does not matter
so much about the quality. If there
are any of you who hold this view, it
will pay you to read the following
article from the American Cultivator
The workers at the Rhode Island
Experiment Station seem puzzled as to
the reason why farmers keep on buy
ing lOW-grade Oat feeds and other
feeds which, it is alleged, are scarcely
richer than oat straw. 1T is certainly
strange that feeders are so careless in
buying these various preparations.
Many farmers seem to go by the fash
ion of the neighborhood, buying the
feeds most easily obtained at the feed
store and never thinking to inquire
about the makeup or guarantee of the
feed. The average farmer neglects
the study of the feed market, through
which he might get information
enough to considerably increase his
income if he is a large dairyman and
buyer of commercial feeds. There is
a cotton seed containing only twenty
some containing forty-three per cent,
and study of the seed bulletins from
the stations will give an idea which
brands to select. There seems to be a
tendency to cut down the richness of
cOttonseed meal by mixing cheaper
material. The manufacturers have
concluded that the farmers will pay
as much for a lows grade cottonseed
meal as for high grade. The manu-
facturers of gluten feeds also need
looking after. Most of the feed seems
to fall below the guarantee. The
manufacturers explain the condition
by the statement that the factories are
just now undergoing change of man
agement Poor explanation is better
than none, but users of this excellent
class of feed material will rejoice
when the change is completed Some
brands of gluten feed mentioned are
so far below guarantee that the buyer
is seriously defrauded. AS a rule,
however, the guarantee which is print
ed on tag or on the bag shows pretty
closely the makeup of the feed. Those
buyers who have any doubt, judging
from the appearance of the article,
should get the analysis from the ex-
pertinent stations.
A professor in dairying at one Of
the New York experiment stations
visited a large number of farms in the
neighborhood He took notice in
particular of one of these farms on
which there were thirty head of cattle,
and asked the owner if he would have
any objection to allow a man to come
and weigh the milk from each COW
and take samples The farmer agreed,
and for one year an exact record of

A Woman Farmer Who Farms.

A Woman Farmer Who Farms.
The solution of the labor problem
is to do your own work. For the en-
enlargement of those ladies who own
land and cannot get help to do the
necessary work, we quote from the
Tribune Farmer an article which
shows what a woman can do when she
chooses. The article was illustrated
by two pictures, one of the house and
the other of Miss Condell seated upon
a wagon, piled UP with a large load
of stable manure
Can woman unaided by the hand
of man farm sixty-five acres of land,
preserve her health and be happy?
Miss Elizabeth Condell, who has a
small place near Libertyville, Lake
County, ILL.,, is a living affirmative
answer to this question.
Some years ago William Condell,
who owned a large tract of land west
Of Lake Forest, divided his holdings
among his children. Eighty acres of
this land was given to his daughter,
Elizabeth. She sold, or rather was
required to sell, fifteen acres to go
into the right of way of the Chicago
& Milwaukee Electric Railway, which
operates a branch from Lake Bluff to
Rockefeller. The road passes her
farm yard.
For about twenty years Miss Con-
dell has been farming this land. She
lives alone in the house that is shown
in one of the accompanying pictures.
The reason that Miss Condell is not
seen about this house with drawn
shades is that at the time the picture
was taken the owner was out in the
barnyard loading a two-horse wagon
with manure. With her own hands
she heaped it up as shown in the
picture, and then she took up the
reins, mounted the seat said "Get
up to Pete and Bet and started off
to the field, where she distributed the
fertilizer to the soil as evenly as any
man could do it.
This gives some inkling into the life
of Miss Condell. She dresses in a
plain Bingham dress that reaches the
top of a pair of coarse, high-laced
shoes, and she covers her head with
a sunbonnet In this kind Of attire
she breaks up the sod or soil Of her
fields, she follows a two horse cultiya-
tor through her cornfelds, she rides
moving machine in her meadows,
rakes the hay, loads it, and hauls it
to the barn. In short, she does all
the work that has to be done
Nowadays we read much about wo-
men who run farms. That often
means that they boss small army of
farm hands. But such a functionary
never sets foot on Miss Condell's farm,

FEARS FOR THE IRON TRADE
American Attempt to Corner Product
Seen in Inquiry

trict the possibility of coming Amer
ican attempt to corner the commodity.
ONE good judges think the foreign
demand may take the whole avail
able English supplies. If they do,
then the price of Cleveland pig iron
will increase materially.
Pigiron is certainly in the throes of
a "boom," which will, it is fondly
believed, carry prices higher than for
years. 1t comes from the busy trade
proceeding abroad-in Germany espe-
cially-but American doings are now
receiving share of attention to which
they have long been a stranger
Certain it is that today there is alb
solutely not enough pig iron and steel
in Germany to give consumers what
they want
Six months or so ago the inability
of Germany to sell to many British
users would have been almost mat
ter of Indifference, for America was
then a seller Today America, like
Germany, has not an ounce of stuff to
spare. On the contrary, it has bought
tens of thousands of tons of pig iron

CHINESE IN BAD TEMPER
Boycott Against American Goods Re-
newed With Increased vigor-
Japan Believed to Be at the
Bottom of the Trouble

Picking widely circulated
here and in the provinces give promise
of inaugurating a new literature of
revolt-one circular is issued by the
warm hearted people of Ipoh. 1t is
passionate protest against the "cruel
laws" made by America against the
Chinese, and it calls on the people to
maintain the boycott of American
goods. 1t points to the subbess of the
boycott and asserts that sit is carroied
on in such a civilized manner that
no excuse can be found for its sup
preston"
THE foreigners have characterized
us Chinese as being without patriot
ism and without, unity it says. ut
is our duty to prove that this is not
true. Mr.. Chang, a wealthy merchant
of Shanghai left his great fortune un-
cared for in order to start the boy
cott Mr.. Fung, a young man of great
talents sacrificed his life for the pur-
pose of encouraging his countrymen.
Mr.. Liam, Chinese minister at Wash
ington, fought for the cancellation OF
the cruel exclusion laws at the risk
Of losing hi appointment.
Wealth, honor and life are things
we all care for. But these three gen
tlemen were quite ready to give them
all up in order that they might help
their own countrymen. Ought we not
to respect their motives and avoid the
disgrace of being called 'cold-blooded
creatures? Boycott! Boycott!
'There are cold blooded creatures
of the lowest order who still buy
American goods Do not argue with
them. Let all Chinese with warm
blood flowing in their veins apply to
these low beings the same method
that they have done to American
goods"
The circular concludes with details
of the marks on American goods, SO
that all can know them.
There are good reason for believing
that the influence of Japan is behind
the action of the Chinese. Japan is
Jealous of American efforts to secure
trade in China and it is believed the

preston that there was corporation

Tho senator's record in the late

that he is not a republican, but as

he is one, the senate is expected to
