II b. Hickey, president OF the re-

sr~nerintendent. MacGregor, arrived
last evening. Mr.. Hickey left this
morning in his new Pope for Austin,
where he has mining interests, and
will return to Manhattan tomorrow.
Mr. MaeGregor, with assistants, is
making a complete survey and samp-
ing Of all the workings in the Stray

we know pretty well already
what we have in these properties
said Mr.. Hickey, "but you can't be
too certain OF your ground when CON
templating the large expenditure of
money"
The new program for these well
now Manhattan properties dates
from Mr., Rickey's first inspection Of
them about q month ago. He saw
the immense possibilities and the
present inadequate equipment Work
was stopped, but stopped for the pur-
pose Of inaugurating development on
a productive scale.
THE Stray Dog is a much better
mine than most people think" con-
tnued Mr.. Hickey, and the others
are just as good. Our plans look to
working all u properties as one.
A consolidation is probably what the
ultimate result will be. As a mat
ter OF fact. there are a number of
properties oyer on Stray Dog hill that
ought to be worked and financed as
one. II we could form a merger OF

Four, you can see what a tremendous
proposition that would be for Man
haitian and for every stakeholder in
all the companies. don't say there
IS an effort on foot to bring about
such an extensive merger, but | am
sure It would be good business policy.
Our own companies, with possibly
one or more besides, will doubtless
eventually be merged.
"our plans involve the installa-
ton OF the most powerful mining
machinery and the construction and
operation of our own mill. These
things take time and money. The
foundations have been laid at Man

ing camp. The showing already
made justiies heavier investment Of
money here than ever. The camp is
ready for extensive milling plants
and these must come as your next
step in the path of progress.

MAKING OF A GOOD COW.
First Fifteen Months Of Calls Life
Determines Her Future.

A wise old dairy farmer once said
to Gov. Hoard. The COW is either
made or unmade in the first 15
Their he stated that he had come to his
conclusion after years of observation
and practice. He had noticed this:
That where a farmer took the best
possible care of his heifer calves, kept
them dry and clean. fed them well on
good growing food and kept them
going in a strong, growthy manner, II
they were well bred from good dairy
stock. nearly all would make good
cows, whereas, II they were eyer SC
well bred, if they were neglected, and
badly cared for. 1t was rarely any of
them would make good cows.
I'VE believe firmly in the truth of
what this old farmer Sid" sdIs Gov.
Hoard. More good COWS are spoiled
by neglect. insufficient food. during
the first Is months than from any
other cause.
Good blood. dairy heredity and all
that is necessary. 1t is the founda-
ton. But IL we are going to make
good cows out of these heifers we
must pay close attention to how we
start them on the road.
For years we have been rearing
heifer calves. Some of them we have
sold and some of them w have kept.
We are greatly impressed by our X.
usrience with the truth of the old
farmers theory. 1t is true that we
take great pains that the heifer shall
De well born. But hat is only half
the proposition. the first half.
IF she is to have good, large capac-
ity she must be steadily well nour
ished from the beginning to the time
she is first in calf. This done she has
a greatly increased chance of profit to
her owner. In buying heifers 1t is
worth a good deal to know how they
have been reared. OF one thing we
are certain. and that is hat it pays to
feed the heifer skim milk daily till
she is 10 to IL months old, together
with a pint to a quart of oats. Such
feeding with good care turns out
much finer cows than does the treat
ment heifer calves usually receive"

A ~HiGH-CLASS DAIRY.
Fine Quality of Milk Supplied to Sc
iect Trade.

A Massachusetts physician owns
and operates a dairy farm where ever
200 COWS are kept the year round. The
milk is sold to a high class of buyers
in Boston. Four kinds of whole milk
are sold, also two kinds of skinned
milk and three qualities of cream. A
special grade of milk, testing six per
cent. is produced for co~nvalescents
and sick folks. who need the richest
milk possible. Jerseys and Guernseys
supply this high grade of milk. The
milk furnished especially for babies
contains about four per cent. butter
fat and is MIXED from Ayrshire cows.
Jerseys. A~yrshires. Guernseys. Devons
and Shorthorns are all used in this
dairy. Every stable and barn on the
place Is kept neat and clean, and no
fosll odors are allowed to permeate
them. The mornings milk from this
dairy Is cooled. bottled and delivered
to the many customers in time for
their use on the breakfast table. But
a couple of cents more per quart is
charged for this milk than for thai

DAIRY NOTES..

The scrub farmer will keep scrub
stock.
Starving the young animals in the
dairy saves feed. but that is all.
The savage dog has no license on
the farm and especially around the
dairy.
A few good rules consistently fol-
lowed will accomplish greater re-
suits than much wisdom and little
practice.
1t is a mighty poor COW that will
not respond to good care and good
food. She should be sold to the
butcher forthwith.
Milk with dry hands. The man
who milks with wet hands is usually
very careless as well in the other
details of the dairy business.
A man who abuses his stock has
about as much chance of reaching
that Better Land as the Golden Rule
has of being worked to death.
It's a pretty good plan to have ar.
engagements made so that the stock
can get in out of the storm should
one come up while the family is
away.
An exchange tells about a man who
becomes i'll at the smell OF butter.
Now, we feel sorry for such a man
Either he has not had any of the real
article or he has a complex nervous
system that we hope isn't contagious.
The first. and all important. point
in selecting a COW is to note the size
of the udder; whether 1t is large, uni.
formly placed with teats placed at the
proper distance. to note whether the
u,ider is fiabby and not fieshy. which
is particularly apparent Immediately

Farmer. The opening may be as vide
as desired. Two by two-inch plank are
nailed to the fence posts about four
or six inches from the ground and
two extra posts are set out from the
fence about a foot. The plank is
nailed TO the inside of these posts and
This plank should be about four feet
longer than the one fastened to the
fence. so as to go by the opening at
each end about two feet. The hogs
cannot jump the two planks and small
hogs that go between them cannot
jump over, as they are lengthwise of
the opening. The cattle will readily
step over. The same plan mag be

At B is shown the udder as 1t should

lance, as it is a w~ell-known fact that

milk is in the udder when milking

scientists that the ability of a COW to
produce milk abundantly is deter
mined by the lumber of cells, and
hence h r available for the dis
%tribution of blood and other fluids
through the udder tissues is too re-
stricted in this instance. A small
udder is therefore a poor sign of deep
milking lowers, though a large udder.

may enter into its formation, is not al
ways a sign of a good mixer. At G

very large and poorly placed teats; 1t

PIGS AS DAIRY ROBBERS.
Cow Secretly Adopts Invaders as Her
Own Family.


Doe Run, Pa.-Walter T Wood, of
this place. runs a dairy farm, where
he has a herd of 81 cows. Among
these are Is which he raised himself,
each of which gives a daily supply of
from 40 to 60 pounds of milk. One
evening recently. when the cows were
brought into the stable, Mr.. Wood
noticed that one of them had little
milk. and he made some observations
the next day.
In the barnyard he had eight shoats,
Weighing about $50 pounds each. 1t
did not take long to solve the mys-
terry as to the thieves of his milk. The
largest shoat hunted out this particu-
lar COW, stood under her finally. and
sucked the udder completely empty.
Mr.. Wood put the cow back into the
stable. and the text day, when re-
leased into the yard. the shoat per-
formed the same stunt. Other shoats
learned the trick. and finally there
were three of them. Mr.. Wood then
raj into the house for his camera.
Mr.. Wood got his pencil. after the
picture had been made. and. figuring
at four cents a quart for milk and
$3.50 per 100 pounds for pork, he con-
cluded hat 1t was not a profitable
transaction; so that the COW is now
tied in her stable and the shoats have
to go on skim milk.

Son Of Lord Leitrim Said to Have
Served as Stoker on Steamer.

New York.-According to Engineer
titled Englishman who recently left
his home and a life of ease to make
his own way in the world and who
started his career of labor by securing
employment on the steamer st. Louis
as a stoker, is Lord Francis Patrick
Clements, the 22-year-old son of the
late earl of Leitrim. The young man
in carrying out his purpose, it is said,
renounced his position as heir pre-
sumptive to h earldom and has also
sacrificed the 100000 a year income
that goes with the title. The family
has made every effort since the young
nobleman left the family estate at
Mulroy, County Donegal, Ireland. a
month ago, to induce him TO abandon
his purpose, but in vain. He is now
somewhere in this country earning his
bread.
Engineer Dobson describes the
young nobleman as being of good
stature and strong build. When he
was hired as a stoker under the name
of Sloane his real identity was un-
known. On the first day out he was
almost overcome by the hard shovel
Ing. but after the first day he was as
able as any of the other men to per-

he told no on board. except to
say that he intended to get work in
