really know her value one must apply
the Babcock test. II he Is not able to
do this himself his state department
station will test samples without cost
to him, except the express charges.
The average Of two tests made from
two day composite sample Of milk
from each COW will give very close
approximation to the test of the whole
year. By multiplying the number of
pounds Of milk for the year by the per
cent of fat obtained from the two
tests made on each COW at about six
weeks after calving and again at about
six months after calving he can know
about the value of each of the cows
In his herd. The advantage is that he
can understandingly weed out the
boarders from his herd, thereby In
creasing the net profit, and can tell
which are his best cows to save calves
from TO add 10 the herd.-C. VI. Wins

Feeding Young Cows.
My practice in feeding heifers from
calfhood has been to give ratIons
which would induce growth OF bone
and muscle, notwithholding n gener-
Gus supply OF fat forming material, so
that the little creatures were SYM
metrical beauties, says a prosperous
dalryman.
When they began TO milk stlll gave
them enough of such food TO keep |
them from becoming thin, believing, |
for the manufacture of the greatest |
supply OF milk they were capable OF
producing, they should he furnished
the materials in their food and not be
required TO take It from their own
bodies, and | believe II this method
of feeding were more generally prac-
ticed there would be less tuberculosis
among the dairy herds OF the country.
FlaSseed Meal For Calves.
Ground fax is an excellent substi-
tute for butter fat to be fed to calves.
Use heaping teaspoonful TO every
feed OF milk while the calf is from two
TO six weeks old. provided you are
feeding skimmilk. AS the calf grows
older gradually increase the fiaxseed
meal until the calf is getting about n
heaping tablespoonful with each feed
This faxseed may be mixed with the
milk, but never mix cornmeal or any
other ground feed that contains good
deal OF starch with the milk, as that
Is very apt to produce scours.
The reason for that is that starchy
foods must be mixed with saliva be-
fore digestion can take place, and any
thing that Is drunk with the milk does
not become mixed with saliva, and
It falls to become digest
I'd and acts as an irritant TO the all
mentary tract.

If you don't just like everything you see in your home paper, go around the streets and howl. The editor is never supposed to make a mistake and of course cannot do so. Other people can. but the editor is ubiquitous. omniscient. omnipres- ent, omnipotent. "omniverous." If you can't see a good point, don't fail to see bad one. If a thousand pleasant things are said of people, hunt for something unpleasant. If you don't find it. howl some more; {; if you do, howl anyway. Never mind your own business; watch for something to find fault with in some other mans business, this will make you great.

A SPECIAL IRAN
Syl Dix0n Specialist, Wants Rep seBtatives In this County to
 Attend Convention.

A special from Phoenix to Chicago to the republican national convent ion carrying Taft supporters. is the idea of Syl Dixon, who for the past fifteen years has made a specially of advertising the western country by means of special trains. Dixon makes his headquarters at Dodge City. Kansas. He has written to friend here that special train will be run from Phoenix to join others which will start from differ ent parts of the southwest to join at some point between here and Chicago and combine, thus going into the convention city in one long train.
 Dixon's idea is to have repre- sentative from each county. He offers free transportation to the representative thus selected. The men going to the convention in this manner will march in the streets of the principal cities, boosting the Taft move to the best of their ability.
 Mir. Dixon has conducted fourteen trains to the east and every one of them has been a success. So much so in fact that Mr. Dixon has achieved a national reputation as the champion booster from the west.
 Undoubtedly the Mckinley corn train of forty cars with banners and cartoons representing as many different Kansas counties. which he conducted from Wichita. Kansas, to the St. Louis convention which nominated Wm. Mckinley in June. 1896, created more comment and called the attention of more people to the wealth of the southwest than any previous enterprise.
 The Mckinley train made day light run and heralded to all in every important town. state capital and even the villages and hamlets through which it passed the name of Vim. Mckinley. The best orators of the country accompanied the train and spoke in the behalf of their fayorite at every stopping palce.

The term printers devil as appli- ed to the boy who does the choring around a printing office has a peculiar romantic history. In early days printing was styled the black art. '" and printers were supposed to be in league with Satan. But it was in the time of Aldus Minutius in Venice that the matter took a serious turn. This was the famous printer who first published | the Greek and Roman classics. He took into his employ negro boy who was homeless on the streets of Venice. The people supposed the boy was an imp from Satan and that he assisted in printing. Mobs col lected about the office and were about to wreck it. when the boy was brought forward and exhibited showed that the boy was flesh and blood, but he was still called "the printers devil" and ever since has been so called.

HAWAII BIG BOOST
SOME PERTINENT REMARKS ON MATTERS BY GOVERNOR
FREAR FOLLOWED NEwEI. L-HAwAn HAS AMONG MOST
ATTRACTIVE OPPORTUNITIES IN COUNTRY FOR UP


Governor Walter F. Frear, introduce
ing Mr.. F. H. Newell at the Opera
House Saturday night, said: 1T has
been ordinarily supposed that the pub
lie domain of the United States upon
the mainland is of such vast extent
that good 160-acre farms may be had
for the asking for generations to come.
That is not so. There, as here, most
of what remains is of such a character
by reason of it's arid nature or for
other reasons that it is unsuited or
poorly suited for homestead purposes
or purposes of cultivation. The lib
crafty with which the public lands OF
the United states have been disposed of
and the prodigality with which they
have been wasted, has produced it's ma
tural reaction. There is now on foot
tremendous movement rapidly grow
ing led by our great President for the
conservation, development and better
utilization of our natural resources.
The most conspicuous method by
which this result is being accomplish
ed already is that of the reclamation
of arid lands by the construction or
great irrigation systems. We here
in this subtropical country ought to be
in a position to appreciate the benefits
of this work and especially if we
stop to recall that our industries con-
sist mainly of the sugar industry, that
one-half of the area devoted to sugar
production is arid land that has been
reclaimed by the construction of irri-
cation works at great cost,-$15, OO0-
| 000-and that nearly two-thirds of the
sugar produced in these islands is pro-
duced on arid lands that have been so
reclaimed.
THE reclamation service of the
| United States is under the Interior
Department. MIR. Garfield, as you know
is Secretary of that Department, and
Mr.. Newell is director of the recla-
nation service. Mr.. Newell l know

HUGE PARADE AND
MONSTER RALLY

Both the most Imposing political
parade and the largest political rally
ever seen in Honolulu were realized
by the Republican party last night.
Col. j. w. Jones was in charge Of the
parade, having only accepted the job
two or three days in advance, and 1t
was a great credit to his organizing
ability and military skill.
James A. Wilder, the local artist,
had charge of the transparencies with
their notices, which formed one of
the most catching features of the pa
rade.
Several business houses put in floats
bearing inspiriting inscriptions. Those
who manned these were equipped with
roman candles, red fire, horns and
combells.
About $50 torches were in line and
many of the paraders had roman can
dies and bonus to contribute to the
flare and the blare.
The Hawaiian and the Concordia
bands we're in the procession, at tho
head of which the Republicans candi-
dates walked. There were several
hundred men in uniform
Winding up at Aala Park and draw
ing in it's wake and upon its 1anks
great crowds, a concourse of ten thou
sand people was assembled ait the
front of the band stand when A. L.
c. Atkinson, chairman of the Repub-
lican Territorial Committee, started
the speeech-making.
All of the candidates from Kala-
nianaole for Delegate to Holt for De-
putty Sheriff delivered addresses, most
of them of the short whirlwind brand.
Hon. W. o. Smith, John Lucas and G..
w. Smith also made stirring speeches,
Lucas giving a humorous boost to in
dividual candidates. Many of the
speakers made either a first or second
appearance of the occasion upon an i'm
provised stand on the Beretania street
side of the square, where an intelli-
gent audience of several hundred was
seated on chairs, an overflow meeting
of those who had found themselves
out of reach of the voices from the
bandstand.
Governor Frear visited the band
stand and received a great ovation but
declined opportunities to speak.
Chairman Atkinson delivered many
telling shots in his introductions.
Harry Won Holt easily made the
hit of the evening in three languages.
A climax was reached when he stood
with Kaai's glee club after speaking
and Joined the musicians in a cam
paign song. Kaais music was fine
throughout. The moving pictures,
alternating with portraits of candi-
dates, did much toward entertaining
the multitude.
William H. Hogs ably presided at
the overflow meeting
1t was about II o'clock before the
| grand rally came to dispersal.
