Good Milk Producers.

For feeding purposes he did not use
brewers grains, as he thought they
had a prejudicial effect on the milk,
but oil cake, with a fodder made by
chatting straw and hay.
A quantity of the latter was placed
in a rack just above each COW, so that
she could nibble at it if not satisfied
by her ordinary meal, and what re-
NAMED in the rack was turned into
fodder.
The place bears all the outward
signs of prosperity. The buildings are
by no means new, but they are Kept
in a state of sanitary cleanliness. At
tention was given to the admission of
plenty of fresh air, without draughts,
and the farmer held that to keep a
cow in health a certain amount of
light is necessary for the winter
months.
All liquid sewage was carried off by
means OF a drain. The dairy itself
was a model of spotless cleanliness.
This, of course, was virtue In itself,
but the farmer explained that he did
not expect it to be it's own reward.
He had made a good circle Of custom
ers and was in the habit Of charging
them somewhat more than market
prices for butter; in return, he in
sured that it would be Of the very best
quality, and of course made under con-
ditions of the utmost cleanliness.

DAIRY HERD IN THE WINTER
Close Study of Individual Cow Is Nso.
essary if Results Are to Be
Profitable.
(BY w. r. GILBERT.)


Not long ago I was looking at a
herd of cattle used for the production
of milk and butter in winter. 1t has
the merit, at all events, of yielding
handsome profit 20 the owner, and
differs in this way from many similar
herds.
1t was the more interesting, there
fore, to look over the arrangement of
a herd by which this feat is accom-
plished. There was, as the owner
smilingly said, no secret to disclose.
He is man who lives on the prod
uce of his herd, and has made butter
a much greater factor in his prosper
ity than is the case with his neigh
bors. What he insisted upon as re-
CARDS feeding might be comprised in
two parts.
The first was that which may be de-
scribed as individuality; in other
words he paid no regard to the "ra-
tons" which many textbooks give for
the cow.
There was no such thing, he said, as
the average cow" Some eat more
and some eat less, nor did their eat
ing bear any proportion that he could
f1end out to the amount of milk they
yielded.
1t necessitated the employment of q
man who knew the idiosyncrsies Of
each COW and gave her what he knew
she should take, and nothing more.

Hoarse Coughs. Stuffv Colds

Pains in chest and sore lungs, are

Boston, Special.-Having for its

besides Mr.. Hammond, Daniel j. Sui

Scott Dalgleish of Carlo, Egypt, the
representative of the Hirsch syndicate
Of London.
Briefly the idea is to establish

we'll as in the manufacturing centers
for storing the cotton crop, so that
instead of selling i: from hand-to-
mouth as has been the practice here
totore. it will be marketed through

which will result in a saving of not

General Robert e. Lee, the Immortal
Leader of the Confederate Soldiers,
Will Be Forever Honored.

Beverly, Mass, Special.-President
Taft has approved without comment
an opinion by Attorney General
Wickersham to the effect that there
is no provision of law by which the
statue of General Robert E. Lee, in
Confederate uniform can be removed
from Statuary Hall in the Capitol at
Washington.
In addition to deciding the ques-
tion on purely legal basis Mr.. Wick
ersham argues the matter from an
ethical point of view, declaring that
Lee has come to be regarded as
typifying all that was best in the
cause to which he gave his services
and the most loyal and unmurmuring
acceptance Of the complete overthrow
OF that cause. That the State of
Virginia should designate him for q
place in St"tuary Hall as one illus
trious for distinguished military SER
vice, the Attorney General declares
Is but natural and warranted under
the reading of the law.
Mr.. Wiskersham s opinion was call
ed forth by protests to the President
