Iowa a Great Dairy State.

Corn is King Of Iowa, and yet we
stand second, (next to New York. in
number Of dairy COWS and the pro-
duction of dairy products. The
government report for January lst,
1906, credited Iowa with over 400,
600 milk COWS. The average yearly
butter fat production Of these COWS
is estimsted at only l40 pounds per
head. According to reliable author
ity J Of Iowa's 100000 COWS are
MIXED at loss. This means that
the Iowa farmer milks 100000 un-
profitable cows every night and
morning. Ii we should assume that
each COW is milked ten months dur
ing the year it would keep 9.320
men busy ten hours each day for
300 days each year to milk the un-
profitable cows on Iowa farms pro-
vided these men are quick enough
to milk COW every six minutes.

How to Eliminate Poor Cows.

Number or name every COW in the
herd and keep a record of lbs. OF
milk given by each individual COW.
WEIGH THE MILK. This can be
easily done by suspending a spring
scales from the ceiling overhead. Ii
YOU are too busy to weigh the milk
every night and morning, then
weigh it one day out Of each week,
or two consecutive days out Of two
weeks Or three consecutive days out
Of each month. 1t is important to
have some system.
TEST THE MILK. Take a
sample Of each cows milk one day
out of each week or for three con-
secutive days of every month and
put in the test bottle. This can be
done by means of a small dipper.
1t is important that this sample be
accurate, and should be taken while
the milk is warm, or in case the
cream has been allowed to raise, ii
should be thoroughly stirred. The
samples may be tested at the local
creamery or G Babcock tester large
enough to test eight cows at once
and equipment to go with it may be
purchased. This will not cost to ex.
ceed $l3. Several families could &C
together and purchase this testing
machine making the cost for eacl
family very light.
Anyone wishing full particulars
regarding the equipment and method

THE STRANGLlNG FIG.
A Curious Tropical Tree That Lives
Upon Other Trees.

Upon Other Trees.
Visitors to Mexico and other tropical
countries often have their attention
called to "the strangling fig'-a tree
that commences its growth as an cpl

that grows perched on another-far up
on the trunk or among the branches of
another tree usually on a palmetto or

Of the strangling tree extend down

ground, gradually joining together,
making n tubelike mass of roots some
times as much as six feet or more III

Summer Pasture.


Green succulent pasture is the
ideal food for the dairy COW. Often
times pastures are over-stocked in
June resulting in scanty feed during
the latter part Of July and August.
This, together with the fly torment,
will reduce the milk flow materially,
unless the dairyman has prepared
himself for the emergency by pro-
viding fresh field of clover, sweet
corn or some other soiling crop to
his short pasture. Once
a COW falls off in her milk flow, it is
well nigh impossible to bring her
up to her best work again.
The importance of feeding can
scarcely be overestimated. The
Cornell Station reports a trial where
a change Of feed and methods Of
feeding alone resulted i'll an in
creased net return Of 50 per COW in
a single year.

NAMES OF DAYS.
The Latin and Saxon Terms Fro.
Which They Are Derived,

The Latin and Saxon Terms From
Which They Are Derived.
Our names for each day are derived
from the Saxons, who probably bor-
rowed the week from some eastern
people, substituting names of their
own divinities for those Of the clas-
steal gods, as is easily seen when the
names are tabulated:
Latin. Saxon. English.
Dies Solis....... SUMS day...... Sunday.
Dies Lunae..... Moons day Monday.
Dies Martis. .Tiws day.. Tuesday.
Dies Mercurli.. Woden's day.. Wednesday,
Dies Jovis...... Thor's day.. Thursday.
Dies Veneris... Friga's day.. Friday.
Dies Saturni.. .Seterne's day. Saturday.
Among the ancients the belief in the
influence of the planets upon the life
of men was so strong that many in se-
lecting their daily ornaments would
Wear only the gem associated with the
planet of the day. Thus on Sunday
only yellow gems and gold, should
adorn tile fingers. Pearls and white
stones, excepting diamonds, belonged
to the Moon day. Tuesday, day of Mars,
claimed rubies and all stones of fiery
luster. Thursday, Thor's day, demand.

Results of Testing and Selecting in
Denmark,

Ten test associations in Denmark
increase the productive capacity of
their COWS more than 10 pounds OF
butter Fat per COW, per year for
period of four years. Let it also be
understood that the COWS made an
annual production of more than twice
as much butter fat than the average
Iowa cow. Another portion Of Den
mark reports that by means of test
ing and selection $4,000 cows made
an increase of 36 pounds of butter
fat per COW in one year. If Iowa
with her l 100000 cows could do as
well, it would add 50,OOO,O00 pounds
OF butter fat to our output and
bring to the dairymen of the state
an additional sum of SlO,OO0,OOO
annually. Every dairyman can do
a little detective work and eliminate
the poor COW; it will increase his
bank account.

Dairying and Soil Fertility.

The man who markets his produce
in the form of butter removes very
little fertility from his soil. For ex-
ample, 500 pounds of butter Git
would take 3 Iowa COWS one year to
produce 500 lbs. of butter) removes
Is cents worth Of fertility from the
soil. The remaining S99S2 re-
ceived for the 500 lbs. of butter is
made by plant life from air, water
and sunshine. AS a result dairy
farms in Europe have maintained
their virgin fertility for 1000 years,
while some Of our grain farms are
exhausted in so years. The COM
parison between dairy and grain
farms is worthy of careful study.

Selecting and Feeding Dairy Cows,
Future Prospects.

AS the population Of the United
States increases the problem of Sc
curing a cheap source Of food is sure
to bring dairying into great promi-
nence. This will be due to the fact
that the dairy COW produces a great
er amount of human food from a
given quantity of rough feed than
any other farm animal. Experiments
show that for human consumption,
three pounds of milk are equal to
one pound of beef, and the COW will
produce twenty-five pounds of milk
as cheap as the steer will produce
three pounds of meat. Hence the
cow manufactures human food in
the form of milk for one third what
the steer will manufacture food in
the form Of meat. For the above
reasons the dairy COW is of para
mount Importance in the thickly
settled communities Of the United
States and in Europe.

Feeding Dairy Cows.

THE COW is manufacturing
establishment; a machine for the
conversion of the raw materials
(hay, corn, straw, etc into the
finished product-milk. 1t takes
more than half Of the cows capacity
for feed 10 keep the machine in re-
pair; all she can be induced to eat
Of the right kind of feed, over and
above body requirements, goes into
the pail The more feed the COW
eats and digests, the more milk she
will give, and the dairyman's profit
will be correspondingly increased.
OF course, the COW must be supplied
with a liberal amount Of clover or
alfalfa hay, or some such by-products
as bran, linseed meal, gluten feed,
cottorseed meal, ETC., in order to
balance up the corn ration. Where
it can be grown, there is no forage
that excells alfalfa in the economical
production ofmilk. Alfalfa is about
equal to bran in milk production.
Corns alfalfa and silage makes a
splendid milk production ration.
COWS SHOULD BE FED AC-
CORDING TO THEIR CAPACITY
to produce. One man should do the
feeding in order that he may study
the individual requirements of COWS.
Some cows have greater capacity;
their digestive apparatus is stronger;
they have the ability to handle more
feed than others. Hunt these COWS
ont and feed them accordingly. The
more food COW eats and digests the
greater will be the profits returned.

THE BEAT OF THE PULSE.
1t Varies Grently IN Different Per.
sons and Conditions.

sons ana Conditions.
The pulse of women generally beats
Mt n slightly faster rate than that of
men. 1t may be said that when Il per-
son is at rest his pulse, that of any
adult, may be from seventy-fve to
eighty times minute. Great variation
exists in different individuals in re-
spect of the number of beats. After
exercise the pulse quickens because of
the stimulation of the heart. and the
same result applies to the effects of
taking food. A dose of alcohol will also
stimulate the pulse somewhat, just rs
the use of tobacco, especially i'll excess,
will tend to have an opposite effect
namely, that of lowering the rate OF
the pulse, because of the depression OF
the heart which results. In fcvers and
inflammatory diseases the pulse rate
tends to be very much increased and
also in respect of its character. Instead
Of beating quietly the blood vessel in
such cases exhibits Il very full and
bounding movement. On the other
hand, where depression exists and the
temperature of the body falls, the
pulse may be unnaturally slow and its
character weak. Physicians are accus.
toned to distinguish other characteris.
tics in the pulse, such as become valu-
able hints in the discovery and deter
mination of disease. The practical les.
son we learn here is that where the
pulse continues for any length of time
to have its beats quickened to an un-
natural degree and where especially
rise Of the temperature or heat of tha
body accompanies these symptoms We
ought to suspect some kind of feverish
condition or other to be represented
The pulse alone forms valuable
enough guide to this state of the body,
but its value is very much increased ic
to the information given us by the
pulse we add that which the use of the
thermometer supplies.-Cardiff Times.

Weed Out The Poor Cows.

The immediate problem is to get
rid Of the poor COW. The one thing
that will do more than any other one
thing to make dairying profitable in
the state Of Iowa during the coming
year, is to get rid Of the COW that
does not pay her way. How can we
detect the worthless animal? The
Babcock tester and the scales an
swer the question. Weigh the milk
from each COW; test the milk for
butter fat; know exactly what the
cows are doing and eliminate the
dead heads. Our most successful
dairymen are building up their herds
by the above method.

A Philadelphia father appeals to
the editor of the North American to
suppress, as far as possible, the dis
gusting details of Harriman's story
on business depravity and CONNER
cial dishonor Of the witness stand.
He believes it's effect far more in-
siduous and dangerous to the youth
full reader than the testimony in the
Thaw trial.
Here we have he writes, "a
captain general Of American bust
ness telling story that from the
point of view of old-fashioned bust
ness honor reeks with shame. Hid
den by the gliding of millions
in profits, his story has the guise of
responsibility and the lure of sue
cessful fight for great riches. 1t
cannot fail to set up new standard
Of business honor for the coming
generation. If Hartman can resort
to the methods by which he piled up
his millions and still retain his
place in the front rank ofrespectable
business men, a leader Of finance
and a captain of industry, why,
there's the new ideal for American
boys and young men,"
There can be no question that
the successful application of the
green goods and gold-brick games
to the affairs of high finance has
had marked and basing effect on
business ideals in America. But the
remedy for the decease is not in
suppression. but publicity. The re-
vulsion Of sentiment that has follow
ed Harriman's complacent admis-
sions on the stand shows that
American business ethics are sound
at the core. 1t is healthy sign
that the Hartman revelation has
aroused very general and very
genuine Indignation. The high
handed methods of the railroad
dictators have resulted in a legis-
lature anti-railroad campaign that
has extended to most of the states OF
the union. So decisive is the action
thus brought about that there is
danger of going to far. Meanwhile,
the keen, white light Of publicity
with its powerful sterilizing qualities
is the best prophylatic agent that
can be used in driving out the
microbe of commercial infamy.-
