DISPUTE OVER PARK

Sixth District Association Gets

cision of Lower Body in
Long Legal Fight

The long fight for possession OF the
Los Angeles Agricultural park was
ended yesterday when the supreme
court upheld the decision Of the su-
perior court OF the southern city Civ
ing the property TO the sixth district
agricultural association This associa-
ton was organized under the law
passed in 1880 authorizing the incor-
poration Of the agricultural districts
of the state IN order that they might
conduct affairs
When the state ceased 10 make ap-
propriations for these fairs another
corporation, called district agricultural
association No. 8, took possession OF
the property. The original directors
brought suit against the directors OF
the new corporation for possession OF
the park and the rental collected for its
use This suit was won by the original
corporation. and the possessor OF the
property appealed on the ground that
the older association was improperly
named The supreme court held that
under the law, there could only be one
corporation in each district and the
natural decision was that the first or
ganized is the legal owner Of the park
Possession OF the property was given
10 the old association, and II was given
Judgment for s5.4s4 in rentals. John
C Lynch, g director Of the new cor
poration, was released from his part OF

When Cows Should Dry.

As to when COWS should be dried from milking, dairyman giving his own experience says that this depends to some extent on the quality and wig or of the COW, and that COW in poor condition may be allowed two months in which to recruit her strength, with advantage to herself and her prospec- tive calf, but this is to some extent a matter of keep, fer the poor COW generally belongs to the poor feed CT, and, if the feeding is generous, the animal healthy, and the quantity of milk produced pays expenses there is no reason why the period of rest the case of the average COW, the milk ing can be continued until within a month of calving. If a COW is in low condition, it is better, in our opinion, to resort to higher feeding than to dry off. We have known COWS treated thus for many years, sometimes being milked to within a month of calving, that have carried as good an appear ance, and produced equally good calves, as those which run dry nearly three times as long. Six weeks may be considered the average period dur ing which a COW should be dry. unless the circumstances are exceptional.

Great Dairy Industry.

The clean milk problem is a vital enc, affecting the production and con- sumption of over 9,0O0000,0OG gallons in the United States per year. being an annual supply or over one hundred gallons for every man, woman and child in the country This amount af. lords II quart a day for every in- dividual, which includes the milk used in making butter and cheese. The act ual amount of whole milk consumed each day averages about .65 of pint for every individual The value of this product for year at retail is the startling sum of 2,500,000,000 of dol- entire wealth of the nation, five times the wholesale value of last years wheat crop, nearly twice the value of the corn crop, and over one-third of the entire value of farm products for 1907, which is estimated at $7,400,- 000,000. The wholesale value of dairy products last year was estimated at $500 0000,000, which would allow price of less than ten cents a gallon for milk at the dairy. An average retail price of seven cents a quart was as- sumed, which is probably little be- low the average price.-Conn. Station Bulletin.

Marketing Spot Cotton.

Discussing the question of market ing cotton the Cotton Journal says:
 After passing through the terrible hardships of forty years and submit ting to the dominating control of out side influences in pricing the cottop crop of the south, the growers are at last exercising the rights of American freemen to have voice in pricing the products of their labor. The recogni- ton of this inherent right has been a long time coming, but it has at last made it's presence felt, and within the results have been secured. Now that something tangible is to be developed in the future marketing of American cotton by the growers, it is well to sit down and calmly and dispassionately consider the best methods to be pur sued to get the best and most satis- factory results.
 That the south intends to place price on it's cotton crop each year in the future there is no use to argue. That the south has passed the period In its history when arbitrary iGfu- ences on the outside will be permitted 10 fix and regulate the price of this great staple crop, there is hardly any need 10 waste time in discussing. If the growers expect to do well their part they must recognize and conform to the rules of sound business princi- pies and the regulations of the de- mands of trade. The price of spot cotton cannot be regulated and main tained al profitable figures to the growers by artificial means or spas modic attempts through the medium of force from time to time. There must be some well defined system of marketing adopted which will give permanent relief and which at the same time will not tend to restrict or harass the business of the spin ners
 There is but one way 10 get rid of the artificial inSaences which affect the price of spot cotton, and that is 10 remove the power and influence of the speculative trader. To do this the marketing of spot cotton must be regulated in such way as to meet only the legitimate demands of con sumption. If the mills of the world only require one million bales of Amer ican cotton each month to meet their demands then we must keep the sup ply of the raw material we'll within the limits of that demand.

Separate Sick From We'll,

Whenever a fowl shows symptoms Of disease separate it at once from the balance of the flock. It seldom pays to doctor them. At any rate, whatever you do get them away from the well ones. At the same time re- move all straw from the nests, all droppirgs from the boards, all scratch. ing material from the floor, and emp ty all watering vessels, and clean and disinfect them thoroughly before wat CT is put in them again. The trouble will more than likely end here. where as if this is not done others may con tract the disease and you have trouble CT VOLT hands sure enough.

Plant Louse Remedies.

The habit of all plant lice are very similar, and the remedies best adapted for their destruction are practically the same, being varied according to | the conditions regarding size and form of the plants, vines or trees to be treated, and depending somewhat on | the facilities for obtaining and apply ing the various mixtures. The green aphis which affects the apple, plum, prune and other fruit trees, is numer-
 ous at this time of the year, and can
 only be treated with spray that will which kills the insects by coming in contact with their bodies. A strong spray is required to force the mix lures into the depths of the foliage and
 to cover the lice properly It may
 also be necessary to spray more than
 once to rid the trees of the pest.
 Black Leaf Dip, tobacco prepara- | tion gotten up primarily for the pur-
 pose of killing parasites on cattle
 sheep and hogs, has been found a most excellent remedy for the green aphis
 and other plant lice The dip is used
 in the proportion of one gallon to 70 gallons of water
 Kerosene emulsion made in the pro- portions of one gallon of kerosene to fifteen gallons of water and one-fourth
 pound of soap to this amount of the liquids, is an old and tried remedy Whale oil soap or fish oil soaps in the proportion of one pound of soap to eight gallons of water is a good
 remedy. This is easily prepared sim
 ply requiring to dissolve the soap in
 the water and apply the same as the kerosene emulsion.
 A tobacco decoction made by boiling whole leaf tobacco, one pound to four
 gallons of water, or two pounds of to-
 bacco stems or dust to four gallons
 of water, is said to be as effective as
 the black leaf dip though perhaps
 more expensive and more difficult to
 prepare.
 No lime should be used in any of
 these preparations The lime and sul-
 phur preparation heretofore described
 and advocated for the green aphis and
 the woolly aphis is not to be used dur
 ing the growing season. It will in-
 jure the foliage, so Is used only as a fore the buds open in spring.

ALMOST A SHADOW. Gained 20 lbs. on Grape-Nuts.

There's a wonderful difference be. tween food which merely tastes good and one which builds up strength and good healthy flesh.
 It makes no difference how much we eat unless we can digest it. It is not really food to the system until it is absorbed. A Yorkstate woman says:
 "I had been a sufferer for ten years with stomach and liver trouble, and had got so bad that the least bit of food such as I then knew, would give me untold misery for hours after eating.
 ' lost flesh until I was almost q shadow of my original self and my friends were quite alarmed about me
 First l dropped coffee and used Postum, then began to use Grape-Nuts although I had little faith it would dc me any good.
 But continued to use the food and have gained twenty pounds in weight and feel like another person in every way. I feel as if life had truly begun anew for me-
 q can eat anything I like now ir moderation, suffer no i'll effects, be on my feet from morning until night Whereas year ago they had to send me away from home for rest while others cleaned house for me, this spring have been able to do it myself all alone.
 My breakfast is simply Grape Nuts with cream and a cup of Postum, witt sometimes an egg and piece of toast but generally only Grape-Nuts ant Postum And I can work until noor and not feel as tired as one hours work would have made me year ago.

Mothers Accomplishment.

In the Bohemian set of New York two of the popular members are well known writer and his wife, who also has written several books. They have a daughter about four years old. Re gently the little girl was visiting at the home of friend and her small playmate asked her: Gan your mamma sew?''
 The daughter of the literary pair evidently was bit chagrined. She could not remember that she had ever seen her mamma sew. She is a truth ful child and would not claim any ad- vantages she was not sure of, yet she felt that mammals honor was at stake.
 T don't know if mamma can sew, she replied, dubiously, but she can smoke a cigarette"

Did You Ever Think About It?

Did you ever happen to think that the flour purchased in barrels costs about 20 cents more than the same ar ticle put up in sacks?
 Thousands upon thousands of bar rels of this flour are purchased in the South every year-many of them by cotton growers.
 Two points are important in this conn5 lticn. First, if these thousands of barrels of flour were packed in cot ton sacks there would be an increased demand for our cotton.
 Second, if these barrels were not called for. some of the great causes for devastation of cur forests would be prevented. These are worth think. ing on.
