WHY THE cows FELL orr.
Hired Mans Boot and 4 Sharp Fork
Quickly Reduced Milk Yield.

A farmer of my town owns a herd
OF Is fine dairy cows, of which he is
justly proud, and he treats them with
great care and consideration. for
which he is amply repaid by an abun.
dant flow Of the richest milk.
He was taken very i'll last summer,
and man was hired to take care Of
the cows for . month. At the end Of
that time the owner was able to 60
to the barn and make q call on his IA
vorites.
He was very much annoyed to see
that they had grown poor and that
their hair was ruffed up as though
they had not been well fed or cared
for. He questioned the man, who a..
sured him that the cows had been fed
and milked regularly, and he knew no
reason for the change except on &C.
count Of flies.
The farmer went to the house and
told his wife about 1t. She said that
there had not been SO much milk late
~, but that she had said nothing for
fear Of worrying him.
The farmer made up his mind that
something was wrong, goes on this
writer in the Farm Journal, and de.
termined to find out what it was. Ac.
cordfngly he followed the man to the
barn the next morning, and, hiding
himself where he could see. without
being seen, watched the proceedings.
First, the cows were fed, and ne
noticed that they were given their
full allowance. Then the man took up
the fork and began scraping the drop.
pings into the box.
Immediately the first cow in the
row stopped eating and stood switch.
ing her tail nervously from side tc
side, as though expecting something
to happen. And something did, right
OIL. for the next moment the tines OF
the fork were thrust into her ankle
and she bounded to one side, az
though she were on a spring, which
had suddenly been touched of, and
stood trembling with pain and fright
The work of clearing away the
droppings went on; each COW in turn
being helped out of the way by the
same means, and following the exam
pie OF the first, until the end Of the
row was reached.
The stable cleaned, the man picked
up the pail and stool, and walking
up to the first cow, with a Get owe,
there" gave her kick in the flank
She jumped with such violence that
her hind feet slipped backward and
she fell sprawling and trembling or
the barn floor; two more kicks helped
her back on her feet. Just as the mar
was about to seat himself upon the
stool the farmer, no longer able to con
troll his wrath, sprang forward and
gave him kick that sent him head
long under the COW, with the words
Take a dose Of your own treat
ment!"
Taken by surprise the fellow could
not utter word: but grabbing the
ten-dollar bill, which was one.half the
months wages, he skulked away with
out further inducement.
The shortage in the milk and the
appearance of the cows were fully ex
planned.
The farmer and his wife did the
milking that morning; and the same
day another man was hired who was
of the right sort. The cows were soon
In their usual order, and giving their
regular amount of milk.

of bright flags and gay streamers had
been strung between the trees, tents
and marques were pitched about the
green for refreshment booths and side
shows, woven palm fences had been
erected to provide for the Japanese tea
garden, the wrestling ring and the
children's show, and shady bowers af-
forded quiet retreats where the palm
lists could undisturbed pry into the
future and disclose the past, while fev-
erywhere through the scene strolled
the hundreds of sightseers and pur-
chasers and the many pretty girls, in
gypsy or Japanese costumes, selling
flowers or drumming up custom for
their booths. The Hawaiian band
played under the trees during the af-
ternoon and, towards the close OF the
fete, J. F. Morgan mounted the steps
of the lanai and auctioned off the adj
vertisement cards to a crowd of eager
bidders
Perhaps the best part OF the fete
was the daintily arranged japanese tea
garden, where number of we'll known
young ladies, attired in most becoming
kimonos, welcomed the hundreds of Wis
girls in their fan dances and treated
to tea and japanese CONNECTIONS. The
Japanese wrestlers, in another booth,
also proved an attraction, while the
best business. probably, was done at
the candy stall, which was sold down
to bare plates and empty boxes an
hour before the finish and where the
cash box counted up to one hundred
dollars. At the delcatessen stall, the
ice cream tables and the coffee shop,
also, there was never a stop to the
selling. while everyone visited during
the afternoon the children's show. in
which some beautiful children's songs
were sung by Mrs. Lindsay, Mrs. c B.
Cooper and Mrs. Ranney Scott, assist

trained by Miss de Lartigue. The
Punch and Judy show was also a ia

The nrst international peace congress

2e4 we're from Great Britain. 81 from
America. and only from other coun-

Iudge William Jay. OF New York, the
proposition was made that an aI'bitra-
ton clause be embodied in all commer-
clal treaties between nations. Other
congresses were held at Brussels IN
fS4s. and at Paris, Frankfort, and Lon
don the following three years. Even
nj these early dates the American dele
gates advocated Congress of Nations,
the oodihcation Of international law
and the establishment of an interna-
tional tribunal. But after these ef-
forts for universal peace the world
had the Ciimean war and all the other
great conflicts. and the peace thought
was temporarily laid aside. Recently
however. IL has come to the front again.

toward this goal they are labonng
