Moscr Tells Figures.

NIoscr Tells Figures.
But there was nothing in the talk
of c. o. Moser of Denison, delivered
to the Farmers and Commercial Club
congress at Amarillo last week, about
range cows and Jerseys. Mr. Moser
confined himself, not to theories, but
to facts. lie is government expert
in charge OF the experimental dairy
farm at Denisou and his business in
Texas Is to demonstrate by actual re-
suits what money there Is in dairying
for the farmers Of Texas. At the
Denison farm there are all kinds OF
COWS and one OF the tasks OF the
farm will be to breed up grade stock
with pure bred animals and show It's
advantages or disadvantages, accord
ing as time may prove.
an 1907" said Mr.. Moser, "there
we're 21,0O0,000 milk cows in the
United States The value OF their
products amounted to 100000, 900.
The average yield Of milk per COW
was $3.50 pounds and the average
amount OF butter was 155 pounds
at is worth remembering that
there is no dairy belt in the United
States as there are wheat belts. corn
belts, cotton belts and rice belts.
Dairying may be carried on success
fully in any part OF the world.
Five Things Needed.
give things are needed to make
dairying successful, First, whole
some supply OF water, Second, a
large quantity Of feed at a low price.
Third, the proper kind OF cattle.
Fourth, the proper market for the
products and fifth, the right kind of
people to conduct the work.
"You have abundance of water,
am told, at from a depth of 200 to
800 feet. You can raise from ~
to . tons Of alfalfa to the acre. You
can raise cowpeas and legumlnous
plants, sorghum kaffir and milo
maize. You can buy Texas cotton
seed meal at $25 to $40 ton. Texas
cotton seed meal Is the richest in the
world After It has been digested II
IS still worth $2G a ton as fertilizer.
You have an advantage in being
north of the fever line. The fever
has been n serious drawback in
southern and central Texas :hany
years 1t has cost a great deal to
establish herds in the face of the
fever. You can start with all that

he was followed rapidly as the meet

THREE PROFITS
IN DAIRYING
CFrom Fridays Daily)

(From Fridays Daily)
The numerous requests for copies
OF the Daily Panhandle containing
the address of Mr., C. o, Moser, a
government expert, on the subject
of dalrying, delivered before the
Amarillo Farmers congress in Jan
uary, induce us TO re-publish the
same, The address follows:
Nearly everybody knows that there
is more or less money in dairying
and nearly everybody who has lived
on a farm has his or her own ideas
how much profit that u.s.
There are men who will argue that
the way TO make money from darying
is to buy fresh cows in the spring,
sell their calves, get the milk all
summer and sell the cows in the fall.
Others will argue Just as positive
ly that the only way is to buy a pure
bred herd and stick to It, Probably
It IS not generally known that a Jer-
sey COW is not at her most efficient
age until she has seen seven or eight
years. At the age of twelve she is

twelve years being worth anything

10 Make Shares Lower.

~ H'AaAN' tNANfAA - Aa'"hAH
Another point OF issue was brought
mp by " +. Gee who stated that
the shares at 500 might be beyond
many citizens. II nave .alked with
a number OF citizens on this subject
and there are a great many who
would subscribe at SIS who cannot
reach the 500 mark. Some ofgan-
izations Of this kind fix shares Of
stool, at $40 or even s. but ! believe
that's On a lower basis than we fig
IRE out here with the lower shares
man could take any number OF
them as he was able so 1t would
amount to the same thing and there
are a number of people in town who
want to help and who are willing to
help who could get in on the smaller
shares" A newcomer to the town,
who stated that he intended TO live
here and that he wanted to help but
that he could not reach the higher
figure, urged that shares be put as
low as SO so as to let in all who
wished to help c. l., Smith, the
auctioneer, quoted scripture to prove
that the little man, like the widow
with her mite might be giving more
than the bigger man with his big
subscription.
Amendment ana counter amend
ment followed in this effort TO make
the shares fiji the men with smaller
amounts Of available cash. The meet
ing debated the $40 basis and
adopted the $25 share basis, till II.
b. Sanborn rose to protest that al
though he did not wish to oppose
the will Of the majority under any
considerations. / fully concur in the
statement Of Mr.. smith that to many
people payment Of $40 VIII be as
large in proportion as much larger
figures from some other men. But
these payments are easy. only one
half down and nearly year 10 pay
the balance Now we all know there
are n great many selfish people In
the world and this trait develops in
a most decided manner when sub
scription list Is presented. We must
raise $4,000 II we take the larger
share price we would gain in the
total more than We would lose. If
man were able 10 pay $500 and he
got a $50 share we'd lose $3.50. I'd
be glad to see the shares set at $50
or at $2J or even at $40 If that is
the will OF the meeting, but | believe
that It is to the best interest of the
association IN securing the amount
needed to leave the shares at the
higher figure"
Then after the SIS motion was
rcconsidered c. b. Pash presented
a motion to set the shares at $50
and It was accepted by the passage
Of the motion.

DENATURED ALCOHOL
BARRED AS DRUG

Commissioner Of Internal Revenue
John c. Capers has just handed down
an important opinion regarding the use
OF denatured alcohol for external N, d.
icinal purposes. 1t seems that some
druggists have prescribed denatured az
cohOl for external medicinal purposes
not knowing that 10 do so is a viola
1iOn of the law
Commissioner Capers says that com
pletely denatured alcohol contains kerr
osene ana crude wood alcohol. which
renders il unit even for external medi-
cation. Moreover. the second section OF
the law regulating the sale and manu-
facture of denatured alcohol provides
fine and Imprisonment for any person
who uses denaturcd alcohol for manu-
featuring any beverage or liquid medi-
cinal preparation, or knowingly sells
any preparation made in part or wholly
from such alcohol
The Commissioners add that eft Is clear
that both the physician who writes
a prescription for denatured alcohol.
and the druggist who prepares the pre-
scription and sells the medicine TO the
psuent are liable 20 criminal proseeu-
