LOOKING AT THE FEED END.

Too many dairymen look only at one
end of their business. They seem to
think that IL they get a fair quantity
or milk every day that they are making
money. or course milk is what we are
after, and the nor OF il and the bet
ter the quality so much more will be
our profits, providing the feeding end
has been kept in right proportion. There
Is as much opportunity for profit by
reedlng right as there is in selling
right, yet the majority Of dairymen
could not tell for the life OF them how
much 1t costs to produce a gallon OF
milk or a pound Of butter. The feeding
end or dairying involves q careful sys-
tenn or FARMING, for wheat growing and
good dairying viii not go well together.

Here nice, bright fodder was stored I'm

ana there was tons of mangels to Civ

was a good size cutting box, and bran

OF a silo, which would go a long way in
cheapening winter feed. In order to-
get q COW to use her foods economically

The horizon was grey with the COM

the pier to see anything distinctly, so
they ven slowly back together to the
~boathouse.
Was tie necklace a valuable one ?"
asked the coroner, as he closed the
door.
1T was worth over n hundred thou
sand dollars" answered Delroy, and
explained briefly the purpose Of the Inn
mersion.
How many persons were aware of
your intention to put it in tie water

The coroner bowed but he shot Ire

"Yes-I was looking out the window

NO STRIKE In BRITAIN
An AGREEMENT REACHED
Rall7edy Directors Bind Themselves
to Compulsory arbitration.

London. Nov. 6-The anticinatad railroad

pubic has been averted by an agreement
drafted by David Lloyd George President Of
the Board of Trade, and signed at a late hour
TINS evening by the Chairmen of the principal
railroad companies and representatives of the
Amalgamated Society of Railway Servants
The agreement provides for the considera-
tion of further matters in dispute primarily by
a sectional board of conCiliaton representing
Vidual railroads. In case of disagreement set
tlement will be reached by the board of con-
ciliation and an equal number of men repre-
senting the full membership of the society If
the board and these representatives fail to
reach a decision, the matter then must be
settled by arbitration The directors of the
railroads thus bind themselves to compulsory
outside intervention in disputes with their en-
poyes The board will in every case be COM
concerned, we'll as officials of the various
railroads.
This dispute. apart from its effect on the pub
lie business. has attracted the attention of high
officials of the government. even that of King
Edward himself. His majesty has taken the
deepest interest in the crisis and the extraordi-
nary efforts and precautions adopted by the
