THE DAIRYMAN.

II just want to give the result Of an
inquiry made myself as to whether 1t
pays better to raise beef cattle or pays
better to raise dairy cattle. made an
investigation of this. | wrote letters to
the islands of Guernsey and Jersey. to
Denmark and Holland where. as | I'M
derstand. the greatest dairy interests
of the world are. to find out the actual
cash value Of agricultural lands In
those countries. From Guernsey and
Jersey | got the answer that the aver
age cash value of agricultural lands
was $3.50 an acre, from Holland and
Denmark from $500 to 5000 an acre.
All those lands are devoted 70 dairy
ing. and you will always find that the
highest priced agricultural lands in the
world are devoted to daiTying and not
to the raising of beef. That tells the
story" said Judge Quarton of Iowa
before the national dairy convention.
Running the Separator.
Three points worthy of attention
when using the separator are specified
by Professor Oscar Err of Kansas:
First.-The speed of the bowl has an
influence on the cream. A change in
speed from one separation to another
changes the per cent of fat of the
cream.
Second.-The temperature Of the milk
affects the cream. Ii the milk is warm
the cream will be thicker than If it is
cold.
Third.-The amount separated per
hour is another factor. This is espe-
eially important. for If the milk is I'M
evenly fed into the bowl the thickness
Of the cream is vastly influenced.

 lures for Coming Year.

Seattle, April 2s-Extensive expen- allure of money and labor in the de- velopement of their holdings in AL aska is the plan for the present year of the officers of the Northwestern Commercial and allied companies. These plans were discussed with much detail at the annual meeting of the directors held here yesterday and to- day.

The Northwestern Fisheries Company and the North western Lighterage Company were the other companies represented at the meeting yesterday, the business of the Alaska Steamship Company being taken up today.
 At today's meeting it was decided to disincorporate the Northwestern Steamship Company immediately and to at once take steps to increase the fleet of the Alaska Steamship Con- pany, which is in reality the re-organ- ized Northwestern company, by the construction of two steamships to cost $500, 900 each. To this purpose dividends of $4OO, 1000 were turned into the treasury of the steamship com pany.
 It is purposed to place the new steamships on the Seattle -Cordova run if the railroad from Cordova is constructed by the time the vessels are ready for use.
 The election resulted in the choice of w. R. Rust, of Tacoma, as pres- dent, $, w. Eccles, of New York, vice-president, Capt. D. A. Jarvis, of Seattle, secretary treasurer. The of ficers are also on the board of trustees which in addition is composed of William P. Hamilton, J. K. McGowan. Moritz TOmsen, F. P. Program. w. F. Bennett and w. II. Bogle.
