an insufficient supply, suspicion of III
purity OF the product, and the large
negro population 1t then is declared
that when the milk supply of South
/ ern cities is improved by means of
/ better sanitary inspection, and when
the public realizes that an ample sup
!, ply of clean, safe milk can be OBJ
tanned, increasing amounts will be
consumed.
Here is another opportunity for
improving tsle condition of the South
ern dairyman," the report states. AS
the public is educated to realize the
difference in the way good milk is
produced as compared with the infer
lor article, there will be willingness
not only to consume more of that
which is produced in the proper man
ner, but also to pay a higher price
for it,
It is pointed out that in Memphis
and Nashville, Tenn, AshevilIe, M.
g, and other places some daries get
one to four cents quart more than
others, merely because the public has
confidence that the product is pure
and clean.
A striking example of the unwis-
dom of not producing its own dairy
products such as creamery butter. rem
ovated butter, cheese, condensed milk
and oleomargarine and as conse-
Quence having to import these food
staples and the estimated financial
gain if produced at home is shown. 1t
is shown that the estimated profits
that could he saved t0 the Cnufb
would aggregate 14,652,72 in the fif-
ty cities which now import those pro-
ducts to the value of S22,957,82, if|
184,59 cows were kept to supply the
deficiency. This would amount to q
profit Of S293.054 to each OF the fifty
cities. 1t Is further shown that H.
304 dairy farms, or an average of246
farms per city, with fifteen cows
with the proper milk capacity on eae 4
farm. would be required to supply
these products and at the same time
give profitable enlployments to about
twenty-five thousand men.

The Daylight Store,

Great emphasis is laid in the sum
mary OF conclusions on thee fact that
dalrying In the South is not only q
profitable industry in itself, but that
1t may be made the means of increas
Ing the productiveness of the soil and
promoting better type of agricul
ture. Briefly reviewing some of the
improvements which he dairy situa
tion demands in the Southern States
the experts point out that;
1t is found that Southern dairy.
men, as a rule, are not using the
most economic methods in the follow.
ing particulars; The production OF
the average COW is only about half of
what 1T should be. Too many of The
dairies are in the cities, when they
should be on the farms, hence too
high-priced feed and bad methods of
feeding. Milk and butter of poor
cases where an inferior dairy herd
bring the highest prices.
1T is strikingly true that in most
cases where an inferior dairy heard
had been in existence for some years,
it will be found that expensive meth
DDS are being practiced and an infer
Tor grade of output is being produced.
Southern dairying needs improve
ment all along the line. The cost of
production is unreasonably high, the
the price of first-class products is in
some cases too how"
The conclusion the report points out
that the three main points that every
Southern dairyman should bear in
mind. and which can be too strongly
emphasized, are;
Better cows, more homegrown
feed, better product.
A noteworthy fact developed in the
investigation is that the per capita
milk consumption in the South is be-
low the average for the country and
that the use Of cream, of which large
amounts are consumed in the North,
per capita daily consumption of milk
is almost unknown in the South. TIE
per capita daily consumption of milk
in the United States is estimated at
about tWo-thirds of pint, while in
the most Southern cities the daily
consumption Is less than half q pint,
and as low as one-third Of pint isl
named In some eases.
Several reasons for this low per-
capita consumption Of milk and creaI
are given as follows indifference as]

DAIRYING IN THE SOUTH.
Report Of the Federal Bureau of
Animal ndustry-Governm Ex
perts Have Been Conducting Ex-
periments for the Past two Years.
DAIRYING

That there is no branch of agricul-
ture that is more needed in the South
than dairying, iss the emphatic decla-
ration of experts of the Bureau OF
Animal Industry of the Department
of Agriculture who. for the past two
years, have been conducting syste-
matte field work in the Southern
States for the development of the da-
Try industry in that section. Some
interesting facts are to be CLEANED
regarding the important industry in
the statement prepared by B. H. Rawl
Duncan Stewart and Geo. H. Whit
aker, entitled "The Dairy Industry
in the South" which was made pub
lie today. The report is divided in
to three parts entitled Southern Mar
kets for Dairy Products" by Duncan
Stuart. THE Milk Supply of Southern
Cities by Mr.. Whitaker and why
Dairylng is Undeveloped in the South
by Mr.. Rawl.
The Investigations in regard to
the dairying industry in the South
has been carried on by these scien-
lists in cooperation with state ex-
pertinent stations, agricultural collie
ges, and departments of agriculture,
and has steadily increased until at
present representative of the
Dairy Division of the Bureau of AMI
NAL Industry is working in each of
nine Southern States. The work has
consisted largely Of personal effort
among the dairy farmers with a view
to teaching them better methods, and
produced good results.
In the prosecution of this work,
declares Secretary of Agriculture vii
son In letter of transmittal, 1t was
realized that decided Improvement
In the quality Of milk supply of
the cities throughout the South was
needed. Insanitary methods Of pro-
ducing and handling milk was great
menace to the public health. IN 1907
an inspector was assigned to inyesti-
gate the situation more fully and CIV
assistance il applying methods that
would bring about improvement" Th !
secretary adds that only a small part
OF the dairy products consumed in
the South are produced in that sec,

There has probably never been time

The deadlock in the Illinois legisla-
ture has been broken by the election
last week cf Congressman Lorimert
succeed Albert j. Hopkins in the
United States Senate by coalition 81
80 democrats and SO republicans on
the 95th ballot. Mr.. Lorimer is re.
publican but in his speech accepting
the office stated that be stands for tar
iff revision and for downward revi-
sion and was emphatic in the matter.
This is but another straw to show
which way the wind is blowing in the
great central west on the subject OF
tariff. We have seen with no little
modification some of our southern SELL
ators, whom we have always regarded
as earnest honest democrats, going over
to the enemy in many Of the tariff
schedules but our vexation and cha
grin have been modifi I'd by the scene
of many of the ab!est and intenset re-
publicans breaking away from their
party and voting for the democratic
ideas of tariff reform.

The Chinese Doctor.

In China physicians practice on
the subscription plan; that is TO say,
each family pays its doctor certain
fixed sum each year. But the Chi
nese consider that the principal value
of doctor is to keep them well rather
than to cure them of illness; so when
physician is unable to prevent one of
his clients from becoming i'll, certain
sum is deducted from his pay, the
amount being regulated by the length
of time his client is sick, This sensi-
BILE system makes the Chinese physi-
clan exceeding watchful over the
health of the people.
But tho system has its disadvan-
tages, las the physicians nave just learn
ed to their cost. For the doctors found
themselves unable to prevent the EN-
peror and the Dowager Empress from
dying; therefore it was,necessary that
they should suffer The penalty of such
grave ignorance. As consequences of
this double imperial death five imper-
ial physicians have been degradsd two
degrees, although they retain their
posts at court, while the President of
the Imperial Hospital and two of his
chief assistants have been dismissed
from their positions, the reason assign
ed being "for their ignorance

The. Cost of Education.

the teachers and $50, 900 each year
to provide buildings. Over one-tifth
of the entire population of the United
States is enrolled as pupils in the
schools. The number of teachers en-
ployed in the common schoo i'll the
school ,year ended June, 1907, was
475,000. OF these $40, 900 were women.
