They are supposed to be descended from
the prehistoric giant OK which inhabited
the lowlands of the west side OF Europe
some thousands OF years ago. These cat
tie are quite widely distributed in Amer
ca and have proved one OF the most sat
isfactory Of our dairy breeds, and they
are rapidly growing in public favor. Hol-
stein Friesians were undoubtedly thtro-
duced into America two centuries ago by
the early Dutch settlers OF New York, and
importations have been made from time
TO time since, though the greatest de-
velopment is recognized as coming to the
breed within the last twenty-five years.
These cattle are black and white in
color and have the characteristics indi-
eating great milk-producing capacity re-
markably well developed. In size they
are among the largest OF the breeds Of
cattle, the calves at birth often weigh
ing from 50 to 125 pounds, and well de-
veloped sires from 1000 TO $500 pounds
The cows as milk-producers excel all
other breeds, so far as quantity is con-
cerned. Wonderful records have been re-
ported during the last twenty-five years.
In a test covering a period of one year
Pietertje 2nd made 3o.s1s pounds of milk.
This, OF course, is the record of phe-
nornenal animal, but any good specimen
of the breed which has been well fed and
cared for should make from 1000 to 5000
pounds Of milk in a year, and 1t is not
uncommon for them TO yield from 40 to
60 pounds of milk a day. While this
breed takes high rank as a butter-pro-
ducing breed. the fat content Of the milk
IS not SO high as that or the Jersey or
Guernsey, a fair average being from
to 4 per cent 1t IS on account OF the
moderate amount OF fat contained in the
milk that Holstein COWS are regarded
with so much favor as producers Of milk
for babies and persons suffering from
digestive troubles. In tests made in GER
tain agricultural colleges cows OF this
breed have been found to produce WITHIN
one week from Is to "a pounds Of butter.
Holstein- Friesians are hardy, Vigor-
Gus breed of excellent constitution as
they naturally must be to make such
large Yields Of milk and butter as have
been recorded The milk is also valuable
for the manufacture of cheese, as 1t con-
tains a large percentage Of solids not fat.
AS beef producers this breed would not
rank well in American when compared
with the specially bred and developed
beef breeds. but viii take a high place
On this respect when compared with any
other of the purely dairy breeds. There
Is a splendid future ahead OF this breed
IN the south where its merits are Just
now coming to be recognized. and we ad-
wise all who are interested in the dairy
business to investigate this breed before
purchasing foundation stock on which to
build either a grade or pure-bred herd.

extraordinarily rich land to grow it;

BY all means, give attention to the
points you have' mentioned, as to size
and number of bolls, height of stalk,
and distance of bolls apart. Much can
be done to develop a boil that will re-
tain the cotton well even in the face
of rather bad storms by selecting with
this end in view, and your own success
in following this method is the best evil

We see no particular reason why you
should have two seed patches. If you

those that most nearly approach your
ideal for next years seed in your special

left as a rule, for your general field

choice probably as that saved for plant
ing in your special patch, but it should
be vastly superior to the ordinary seed
used You are to be congratulated also
on selecting your seed for your own To-
cality and your own Larm. You can de-
velop a strain better suited In this way
to your needs than anything you can
buy on the market: You win find as you
proceed with your work of seed selec-

MARIETTA METHODISTS

MARIETTA, Ca. Jan. 21--Rev. B. F. Frazier
is conducting a revival at the Methodist church
in Marietta and is meeting with great deal
of success in his work. Probably more interest
is being taken in this revival than has ever
been taken in a revival in Marietta. All the
business houses and offices in Marietta close
every morning to attend the morning services
and at both the morning and night services, the
First Methodist church of Marietta is crowded.
The whole town is interested in Mr.. Frasier's
meeting and he is being assisted in the carry

tunate that the young men of the south
who wish TO study veterinary medicine
should 50 largely have to so north 20
obtain this training. gf.tff "a
It generally takes from three to FIVE
years to take a course in veterinary med
icine. and there are a number of insti-
tutions offering first-class training along
this line. One of the best of our Ameri-
can institutions is connected with the
University Of Pennsylvania and is locat-
ed in Philadelphia. This is a four years
course and the expense will likely run
from $500 to $500 a year. The cost de-
ponds a good deal on the habits of the
man taking the course, some going
through for much less than others. Prob
ably my estimate for course in this in
stitution is rather low, because the lab
ora;ory tees are considerable. There is
first-class institution in connection with
Council university, at Ithaca, N. Y, and
branch OF the University Of Illinois. One
of the colleges recognized as furnishing
frst-class training at a moderate cost in
veterinary lines is associated with the
University of Toronto. and is located in
Toronto Canada, and many boys from
the south have gone to this college and
seem to be well pleased with the training
obtained there. I would advise you to
write to the presidents Of these several
Institutions ana secure their catalogues
before you decide where to so. You will
not make a mistake in attending any one
of the colleges mentioned. ~.
There Is certainly a wide field Of use
fulness ahead of a flrst-class veterinarian
who is acquainted with southern condi-
tions, and locates in some of our thriv-
ing towns and villages which are sur
rounded by a well-developed agricultural
country. We frequently see cows with
their tails cut of on account Of hav-
ing hollow TAIL" and the boring Of the
horn still goes on at a lively rate Our
animals suffer from many ills which
could be remedied by the simplest treat
ment, but up to the present time we
have not had anything like a sufficient
number of well trained veterinary sur
geons to meet the needs of our various
communities. One who has q love for
animals should succeed as veterinarian
and find the business profitable.

Something in Luck
The Cheapness of Life
Boston Post.


During this year labor in the United States
lost nearly $4,000 lives in the course of en-
ployment There also about 100000
accidents Most industries involve risks, some
greater than others. The accident rate Of cleo
tricans is excessive. That Of coal miners is
8 10 per 1000 in the United States to 1.29 per
1000 in the United Kingdom. This proportion
holds among the railroad employees. We lost
so per 1000 to Germany .9S per 1000. In
other words. slaughtered on the average
s15 more coal miners than England and !, 7S5
more railroad employees than Germany.
Two conditions account for this excessive
death rate that runs throughout all our de-
partments of labor. First. the reckless lndif-
ference and carelessness. united with an in
herent dislike to obedience. that characterize
our American workmen. Second, the unwil-
IinEness Of employers to install accident saving
devices and to compel military obedience to
preventive orders.
Germany has a permanent exposition OF &C
cident-savIng devices which has been produc-
tive of great benefit to life. This feature

You have probably diagnosed the Jumps
or knots on the back Of your COW cor
rectly as being the result Of an attack
OF the bot fly. While there are two spe-
cies of MARBLE" flies known, only one
is found in the United States, and that is
met with most frequently in the south.
The adult fly is about the size Of a
honey bee. Her eggs are deposited during
the summer on the skin of cattle or in
the region OF the heel, and cause the an
finals considerable discomfort. AS a re-
suit, they lick the parts, and the eggs
are taken into the mouth, where they
hatch and the larvae remain in the oeso-
phagus for some time, and then make
their way to the cellular tissue under the
skin of the back. Here they remain and
develop until the spring, forming the
Jumps known as wolves or MARBLES
When matured these grubs make their
way out through small openings in the
skin and drop to the ground, burrow into
the same and develop into adult flies.
These gad-flies cause much loss in the
cattle industry because Of the discomfort
they cause the animals, and also of the
damage inflicted on the hides owing to
the openings made by the wolves. Bot
flies discovered about cattle should be
killed and in January every wolve or
MARBLE should be treated by applying
turpentine through the small opening
directly over the lump. This will kill
most of them, and the balance should be
squeezed out and destroyed Where this
practice is followed the damage of the
fly can be reduced to minimum, as the
adult flies do not travel far. ss

The best way to insure raising bale
Of cotton per acre on sandy loamy land
is to follow, out the lines Of practice
you suggest in your letter. First Of
all, incorporate as much vegetable mat
ter into the soil as possible OF course,
there is a limit beyond which you
should not go, but you are not likely to
reach that soon in our climate with as
much washing and teaching as we have
to contend with. and in view OF thu
fact that your land is Of a sandy ma
ture. Leaves will help to supply the
vegetable matter and you should use
them literally, working them into the
soil by cross-disking the land or turn
ing them under entirely this fall, If
your land will not wash too badly if
plowed at this season of the year. We
would be certain to break this land well
with a two-horse turning pillow or a
disk, leaving it exposed to the rains Of
winter and letting it remain in as rough
condition as possible. The frosts will
help to break down and pulverize the
clods.
We would use a high-grade fertilizer
at the rate of 500 to 1000 pounds per
acre. We think we would prefer to use
800 to 400 pounds when planting, and
make two side applications, say of 200
pounds each during the growing sea-
son. This would make an appilcaIlOn
of about 700 pounds per acre. good
fertilizer to use may be made as fol-
lows: Mix together 1000 pounds Of
high-grade acid phosphate, zoo pounds
of cotton seed meal, 100 pounds Of nj
trate Of soda and 200 pounds Of mu-
rate of potash
If high-grade goods only are used this
mixture will contain approximately 80
per cent of nitrogen, 81 per cent of
phosphoric acid and 81 per cent of pot
ash This mixture may possibly be
little high in potash for sandy loamy
land Another good mixture might be
prepared as follows: 1000 pounds of acid
phosphate. $40 pounds Of cotton seed meal
and 100 pounds of potash. This mixture
will contain approximately 3 per cent
of nitrogen, S64 per cent of phosphoric
acid and asa per cent of potash.
The selection of the acid to be used
on this land is very important matter,
and you are certainly to be ,congrat-
ulatSd on the attention you are giving to
this work. Possibly one suggestion may
