CERTIFIED MILK.
Methods Used by the Dairymen In
PRODUCING 1t.

In describing the methods used in
the production of what is termed Ger
titled milk" Clarence b. Lane, assist
ant chief of the dairy division of the
bureau of animal industry, says:
1t is the general practice in certified
diaries to remove the manure at least
twice daily to the field or TO suitable
pit some distance from the stable. In
the most carefully managed diaries the
whole interior of the stable is washed
and scrubbed daily with water con-
tanning a washing compound. Some
use q disinfectant in the water once
or twice week. as bichloride of mer-
curry, carbolic acid or permanganate
of potash. Bcholride of mercury is
probably the most expensive of any of
the disinfectants. Aside from this fact.
1t is one of the most satisfactory be
cause it gives off no odor Where the
interior of the stable Is built of wood
it is whitewashed from two to twelve
times annually or kept well painted.
Land plaster is the most common dis
infectant for floors and cutters. Slaked
lime is also satisfactory for this pur-
pose. Shavings are most in favor for
bedding
The COWS are cleaned daily with
currycomb and brush. The udder and
parts in proximity to it are either
washed and wiped with a clean towel
or are wiped with a damp cloth or
sponge In many cases the udder,
TANKS, etc, are clipped periodically.
Occasionally dairyman sprays sta
bles and cows Immediately before milk
ing. 1t is a common practice to fas-
ten up the cows after they have been
cleaned in such a way that they can

Take the mare to it at least once in
the middle of the half day and let it
suck while she rests De not hurry
her back to her task either. Very soon
both mother and foal will become re-
signed to this system of living, and
neither will fret much. The colt will
be nibbling the grass, even munching
oats, instead of YEARLY plodding the
endless corn rows with its mother I'M
der a too ardent sun. Is it best that
the mare should work? No; it is better
that she should give all of her energy
to making milk for her foal, but this
Is not always practicable on the gen
eral farm.
The foal soon learns to eat. The
earlier he learns to eat oats the better,
and the more he eats of them while
sucking his dam the better. Add
wheat bran to the oats. The bran has
a lot of bone in it, and truly marvellous
will be the effect ON the young and fast
developing animal. Gain made then
during babyhood will assuredly never
be lost, nor can ground lost then by
neglect in feeding ever be regained.
Wonderful is the effect of feed on the
frame of the baby horse. The first two
years fix the bony framework. No
subsequent feeding can materially al
ter it, and the first six months gives
an impetus toward development abso-
lutely essential if the highest results
are to be reached Feed the mare,
mi cor no
foal too. Then will weaving time be
passed by so easily that neither groom
nor foal nor mare will regard it as
more than trihing incident.
And now what of the brain of that
colt While we are feeding so well its
body? We must not neglect our OPP
portunity to lodge in that soft. plant
and impressionable colt brain certain
fundamental facts that will go with it
all it's life and upon which may be
built great habits of docility, useful
ness and safety. Teach the colt these
three cardinal principesfrst. that
man is stronger than he is; next, that
man is to be obeyed; then that man is
his best friend How will you best do
this?
While the foal is very young and
very ignorant catch it, putting one
hand at its breast and one hand be-
hind it and hold it gently, letting ii
see how much stronger you are than it,
Repeat this lesson now and then. The
colt will never forget. 1t will instinc-
lively associate you with the idea of
great and irresistible strength. While
it is young break it to halter There
Is no other time so good.
Then be good to him. Take him
some dainty he likes to eat when you
go near him. AS in man, the way to a
colts heart is through his stomach
Take time to fondle him, let him love
you, but do not let him become in any
way unpleasantly familiar. See that
while he loves you he at all times i'm
plicitly respects you.
Then some day, when the time comes
for that colt to be harnessed, there viii
be no breaking needed, only getting
him used to the feel of harness, the
pressure of the collar and the rattle oil
the wheels.

The AustraHan Blacks.

1t is believed by many persons that
the blacks in Australia are dying out.
AS a matter of fact, says correspond
ent of the London Standard, no such
thing is happening. The belief, how
ever, is easily explained. AS ciyiliza-
ton advances. and it is yearly advanc-
ing, the blacks recede farther and far
Their into the back blocks and unknown
country save a few who have acquired
the craving for opium or drink. These
latter succumb amid the advancing
wave of civilization and seldom leave
any children Those who have passed
inland, if they do not increase, have
certainly not decreased. In some few
cases whole tribes have died out when
civilization has reached them. but
these have usually been small tribes.

When a Man Is Graceful.

Men should go early to party, even
III they have to go before supper and
sit in the parlor all alone while the
hostess is dressing. If a man is late,
he is taken around a circle of about
forty persons and introduced to every
one of them, and there is nothing more
awkward than when man tries to
bow. Every one in the room stops
talking and stares at him, and il there
are any sixteen-year-old girls present
he can hear suppressed giggle when
he is trying his best to be graceful. A
man is never graceful except when he
is saving wood or hammering nail,
and society should never expect him to
bow like a woman who has spent years
learning how to handle her feet and
hands. Atchison Globe.

controlled party of tariff robbery
and political jobbery and join the
democrats in maintaining a
government of the people by
the people, for the people. >"
Mr.. Kitchin offered undisputed
testimony showing that the re-
publican party, State and Nat
ional, is controlled by bosses in
the interest of their own selfish
ends, usually a Federal Office of
some kind. Only a passing re-
ference was made to State is
sues, but the speaker drifted in
to a lengthy and learned discus
sion of the tariff and the trusts,
both of which he declared are
robbing and plundering the peo-
pie in order that the rich may
grow richer while the poor be-
come poorer.
Mr.. Kitchin closed his address
with an earnest invitation to
young republicans to join the
democratic party, in which they
would have a voice concerning
all matters effecting their inter-
ests. He said the republicans
could not hope to carry North
Carolina for many years to come,
if ever again. The people were
afraid to trust them and young
men should enlist with the party
of progress instead of hiding
their lights under a bushel.
Democrats were greatly pleased
with Mr.. Kitchin's strong and
argumentative address and a
number of republicans present
termed it a vote getter.

was handsomely entertained at
the delightful home of Mr.. E. B.
|Norvell. He goes from here to
Franklin tomorrow. thence to
Webster on Wednesday.
Mr.. Shipman, who is accom-
|panying Mr.. Kitchin through the
West, says he finds democrats
cheerful and hopeful everywhere.
He thinks these mountain coun-
ties are determined to roll up the
biggest democratic majority for
Mr.. Kitchin that any candidate
for governor has received for
many year. And present con-
ditions really. appear to justify
isnch a conclusion.

w. w. Kitchin, democratic NOM

audience which filled the court
house before noon, and in the
afternoon Col. v. S. Lusk, of
Asheville and Chas. F. Toms, of
Hendersonville, spoke to about.
one hundred people from the
same platform occupied by the
democratic candidates three
hours previous.
In the absence of Democratic
County Chairman, Hon. B. F.
EPosey, who was recently called to
Atlanta, Ga, on. business, the
democratic gathering was pre-
sided over by Mr.. E.. b. Norvell,
a leading attorney of the Muir
ply bar, who first presented
Mr.. Shipman as the next Com
missioner of Labor and Printing.
Mr.. Shipman began his we'll
timed remarks by saying: II
have a pleasant surprise for you
good people. It is the simple
announcement that / shall detain
you for only a. few minutes.
Then you will have the oppor-
tunity of listening to an address
by your next Governor, whom all
these folks came out to hear. I
say the next Governor because
the democracy of this great
State is going to give Mr.. Kitch-
in as many thousand majority
in. November as single ballots
were required to nominate him
at Charlotte in June. And the.
West will do her part nobly as
she has ever done in the past"
Mr.. Shipman said the noun
tain democrats were accustomed
Ito fighting and did not mind it.
HE reviewed former contests and
thanked the democrats of Cher
okee county for cooperating
with him as chairman in 1904,
when the democratic majority
WAS increased from less than
two hundreds to more than eight
hundred. Every shoulder to the
wheel said Mr.. Shipnan in con-
lclusion, and we will achieve a
really great victory in the old
Itenth this year"
Mr.. Kitchin was presented by
Chairman Norvell in q happy
little speech which made a decid-
ed hit. Al storm Of applause

Governor and for two hours he
