AN ABSURD THING Q

This attempt of Gel. Harvey and other re,rsiners of the money lords to bring out the venerable Ez-Presi- dan, Cleveland as a third-term presi' denllal candidate is beyond the limit for absurdity. That shB people of the United States have passed beyond the ideas and conservatism of Clevsland's day is SO apparent that one would think t wou d be accepted by those who vsrs leaders of thought a generation ago as matter of taet' The failure of the movement to defeat the nomination of President Roosevelt in 1904, the farcical termin' stiou of the Parker campaign, the refusal of the Democratic masses to take up the boom Judge Parker and Col. Harvey tried to create for a South srn candidate, the aatuess Of the Wood row Wilson boom, which struck earth
 with a sicke1iug thud 80 soon after Its launching, and many other Lhings should have taught the relicts of 8 past epoch the tutility of disturbing the
 respectable repose of the Sage of Princeton" st this lale day. The people of the United State regard Pres Ident Roosevelt and William J. Bryan
 as the leaders of the two great parties and lo si5s-track either will, ID all probability, mean 8 deieat for the
 party which permits the side-tracking.

the tie in such way as to clip off
short piece which dropped into the hay.
This occurrence, however, would sure
~ be seldom and even when 1T did oc-
cur the wire would be on the outside
=. of the flake and so would generally
drop off before reaching the manger.
Probably one-half the men who do the
tying at the hay baler clip off short
scraps of wire so as to reduce to
more convenient length for tying. These
clippings of wire become mixed with
alfalfa leaves and hay under the tiers
feet and are then fed into the baler
as hay Cows are extremely fond of
these leaves, and likely gulp them down
wires and all, considering the bits ap-
parently as extra tough alfalfa stems.
A large dairy firm has kept COM
plete records of their losses from
herd of 400 mich cows during the last
few years and finds that the wire trou-
BILE is responsible for an average loss
every month of one good COW valued at
SIS. In the neighborhood of $50 tons
of baled alfalfa is fed every month to
this herd. Now all the leaves which
collect around the baler are rejected
lest they might by chance contain
scraps of metal. However, hay is pro-
cured from great many sources and
it is probable that much If not more
than half of it is tied by men who
either by accident or through reason
use the doubling under method of tying
instead of clipping. The conclusion is
that considerably more than half of the
hay fed to this herd is practically free
from wire clippings but this leaves
seventy-five tons Of suspicious hay fed
and it is in this way that $S5 worth
of dairy stock is lost every month.
The remedy is simple, and absolutely
without cost. Hay men and da1rymen
need only to acquaint the tiers with the
fact that one man tying ten tons or
hay day by the clipping method allows
enough scrap to go into the hay to
destroy at least SO worth of dairy
stock for every day he works. It would
be we'll as further precaution to ad-
wise the keeping of the splice wires In
box and the saving of all other wire
scraps such as those removed from
around the bundles of wire.

last week in May. OF the occasion the
Okanogan Record spoke as follows:
THE creamery opening Monday was
a great success. All forenoon the ranch
ers filed in, bringing milk and cream in
cans, bottles and. pals, and it was not
long before the bottom of the huge vat
was we'll covered with the rich yellow
cream from the separator. Mr.. r. E.
Lindley the butter maker in charge
Of the plant, wore smile like full
moon. He had not expected nearly so
much cream on the opening day. He
had, said he thought that forty-fve
pounds of butter would not have been
bad beginning, but when the two
pound bricks Of butter were ready for
the refrigerator there were just forty
three of them-eighty-six pounds-or
nearly double the expected output.
Here is the record of the first days
run: G. A. Weeks, 10 pounds Of milk;
Dick Bray, q pounds of milk; Matt
Garigen, 40 pounds Of cream; j. V.
Segle, SO pounds of milk; Henry Do
heny, 10 pounds Of cream; G. II. Robin
son, "a pounds of cream; j. M. Meyers,
10 pounds Of cream; J. A. Woodward,
20 pounds Of cream; T. F. Gibson, 30
pounds of milk; C. H. Barnett, "a
pounds of milk; J. A. Barker, pounds
of cream; Jess Bolin, S5 pounds of
cream; Chas Schalow, 2S pounds of
cream.
Besides these there were several con-
tributors to the days run who did not
register.
The creamery patrons to the number
Of thirty-one were the guests of Man
ager Lindley at dinner at the Hotel
Elliott, and the day was spent by the
ranchers in discussing the merits of
this and that method Of handling milk;
how the cream would hereafter be
brought to the creamery, and the eff
ficiency of various kinds of separators.
When the supplies for the Babcock
test arrive each rancher will know ex-
The ranch. [volume] (Seattle, Wash.) 1902-1914, 1907-06-15

actly the quality of the cream he
brings. A sample will be taken every
day, and a test made twice a month
Out of the eighty-six pounds of but
ter made at the first churning, fifty
four pounds were sold by 4 o'clock, and
all that has been eaten has been pro-
nounced very good.
The subject of separators is one that
is bound to interest every creamery pa
iron. The rancher can have his cream
separated at the creamery, but expert
ence has proven that is not the most
economical way. There is a vast diff
ference in the cost Of hauling the whole
milk and lust the cream.

That Licenses Are IIIe-

IN the ground that j. M. Montoya
and Charles Jones, who conduct sa-
looms at Thoreau, n. M, neal the
logging camps of the American Lum-
Der company, are violating the terri
torial laws and maintaining nuisances,
the Lumber company yesterday filed
suits in the district court for McKin-
ley county, seeking to enjoin the fur
ther operation of the two saloons.
In the petition the lumber company
alleges that the employees of h COM
pany are wont TO patronize these sa-
looms when on duty and as a result be-
come intoxicated and unfit for work,
and that this occurs so frequently as
to become a serious nuisance to the
company and a hindrance TO its oper-
atlons.
1t Is further alleged that the saloons
are not within the limits of the town
of Thoreau. although they purport to
be operating under license in that
town, and that they are therefore vio-
lating the territorial law prohibiting
a saloon in any settlement of less than
100 people. The company seeks a
permanent injunction to restrain fur
ther operation of either Of the sa-
looms.
