speech Senator Getty got the floor and
made a few remarks. He said:
THE question 1 was trying to ask
the senator was this: If burglary is
committed and the burglar escapes,
should the legislature enact no laws for
his capture because they don't know
his name?'
When Getty sat down, Porter said:

the invitation and gave Getty a good

IMPROVING BUTTER QUALITIES.
Many WAYS in Which Better Quality
of Milk and Cream Can Be Produced.

The dairyman and farm-wife, who
often find the butter quality injured,
might keep in mind this list of ways
by which the injury often results:
BY using improper vessels for hold
ing the milk when milking.
By using milk too soon after the
birth of the Cox. or up to the birth
of the calf.
By failure to properly wash and
scald and sterilize all vessels coming
in contact with milk.
BY giving the COWS bad water
and having disagreeable odor or an
unhealthy quality.
BY allowing the cows to wallow in
the mud or in water in the summer
thereby coating the udder with dirt
containing noxious germs which en-.
ter the udder through the teat and
abide there for long periods.
BY neglecting the surroundings OF
the stable-allowing the manure tc
rot in the immediate vicinity or per
hitting a mud hole before the stable
door or about the water trough.
BY milking in dirty air, or into
dirty pals, or with dirty hands, OF
without properly cleaning and moist
ening the sides and udder of the
COW; by cleaning out the stables just
before milking, or stirring up dust
in the stable, or by feeding the COWS
roots or silage or even grain before
| milking TT would he eaSy to oh
serve any of these rules.

Weather Crop Bulletin
For week ending May 6, 1907.

For week ending May 6, 1907.
Another extremely cold week has
been added to the score of this abb
normally cool and dry season. The
average daily temperature of the
past week was to Is degrees below
the normal. Minimum temporal
lures of Is degrees were recorded
at several stations on the night of
May 8. On April Goth six to ten
inches of snow fell in considerable
portions of the southern and central
sections; and snow t1urries were
quite general on the Sd. The pre-
cipitation was generally very light
in the northern section, and in the
larger part of the state there ia
deficiency of moisture.
This ia the fourth consecutive
week of unseasonabiy low tempera-
ture and despite adverse conditions
very good progress has been made
in farm work. A large portion of
the corn acreage has been plowed,
and is in fine condition for planting.
A considerable number of farmers
have begun planting, and this work
will be general as soon as the
weather becomes sufficiently warm
to insure ready germination.
There are conflicting reports
from the fields as to the extent of
damage caused by freezing weather.
1t is probable that early fruit has
suffered material loss. And posi-
bly, early seeded wheat, oats and
barley have been somewhat injured
in some localities.

BUILDING GOOD ROADS
What Oklahoma Is Doing to Improve
the Highways.

Oklahoma is starting in young with
a campaign of education for model
roads. Its first legislative body will
be given object lesson instruction in
practical road building by the Nation

national and state associations will at
tempt to have inserted in the consti-
tuition clause that will enable the
Legislature to provide general legisla-
ton that will cover the entire state
for the purpose of road building.

the national association has to impart.
That is, the present plan is to try to
instil into the new state legislation
that will provide that the state shall
have the authority to pay SO per cent
while the county and abutting proper
ty owners shall bear the remaining
so per cent, ad at any time that ma
jority of the property owners petition
the road shall be constructed. All
construction must be under state su.
pervision.
w. H. Moore, president of the ma

from $500 to $4,000 per mile to con-
struct macadam road, depending
upon the available material. Such a
road, when built, is practically indie
structible. There is as much road
building material in the new state as
in the union, and the natural roads
are as good as any state has. The

FARM NOTES.

The fruit grower who didn't spray
his orchard last season is not likely
to have the largest balance this win
ter Sometimes spray drops are al
most as valuable as pearls.
Yes, it's cold outdoors; but cold

all be on hand in the spring-so be
ready for them! II there are any
signs of this pest on your trees, buy
good spray pump and be prepared
to fight the enemy in March.
The most obvious means of controll
ing the brown-tail moth, and the cas-
lest one, is the collection and destruc
ton of the winter nests after the
leaves have fallen, says American

Corn stalks, if bright and sweet,
are useful for wintering horses. They

pieces, and steamed or sprinkled in
