The skim-milk calf is an unknown
quantity to a good many people but it
has a mission to perform and we will
probably know more about it later on
The Kansas experiment station has pro-
duced a bunch of skim milk calves
which weighed as much when finished
for market as did calves of the same
age running with the cows until six
months of age. The question to deter
mine is simply this: Is the cream
worth more than the cost of milking
the COWS and feeding the calves by
hand? If it is then a man should
run a dairy in connection with baby
beef feeding. When butter fat is sell
ing at from IS cents to 20 cents a
pound at home and the right kind of
cows are kept there is no doubt as to
the profitableness of milking. At the
Idaho station it was found that calves
fed skim milk and oats yielded a net
profit of SIS more a head than those
fed whole milk.

President Roosevelt told him at the White
House last Monday that Secretary Taft should
be nominated for President.

that Tafts strength In Ohio was growing, and
explained to him that the primary bill would
soon become a law, thus enabling the proposed
test Of strength between the Taft and Foraker
forces. To all OF this the President most pleas
aptly replied that Secretary Taft should be
nominated. and said that he was the best
equipped man for the office. The President said
this a fact because of Taft's knowledge OF
the present conditions of national affairs He
said further that the Secretary was man 10

The Secretary maintains that this was the view
OF the locomotive engineers one year ago when by
their agreement they contracted that including
their reporting for duty, their day should be con-
sidered one of nine hours. From that position, he
says, the engineers withdraw and ask over
time for ninth hour. in addition to their increase
OF $50 a month. He adds:
The equality of wage between the locomotive

reason, IT does not seem fair to me that the add-

and the steam shovel engineers in furtherng the

which the locomotive engineers necessarily and
regularly engaged IN running their engines and

taking them back to the yard at night Therefore.
the eighth law lends them support for con-
tention here.
Secretary TAFT approves wise compromise a
suggestion by Colonel Goethals that tho overtime
should be added 10 the six weeks leave with pay
to which each employe is entitled each year. In
this way says Secretary Taft. the overtime
could be enjoyed in the United States"
The proposition OF Mr.. Stevens and Colonel
Goethsls 10 increase the pay OF construction train
conductors from $40 10 $50 month Secretary Tatt
thinks reasonable. They have asked for the same
wages the engineers. TO wit 500. lie holds that
there is ground FOR maintaining equality

Of the construction train conductor is chiefly to

else to do with It's operation" For this reason
Secretary Taft says that the increase from $40 10
