Finger Print. Never Fail.

Although scars from wounds and Ill
GERS frequently partly destroy the pat
tern folds. such dishgurements are
more often than otherwise aids to
Identification. When the system Of
finger prints was first introduced at
police headquarters in New York a
lieutenant In one OF the administra-
tive departments tried to discredit it.
He had an experimental print made
Of the tip of a finger and short time
afterward asked to have the same
finger reprinted. He had meantime
ground down the skin Of this finger
on grindstone until the blood almost
flowed. Nevertheless the pattern form
was more accurately disclosed In the
second printing than In the first. Once
the record has been made nothing has
yet been discovered to invalidate it,

THE DAIRYMAN

1t Is not the way cream is separated
from milk. but the way it is handled
after being separated which deter
mines the quality Of butter 1t will
make. Ii kept unit! 1t ferments it will
make poor butter.
Use Modern Methods.
Does every cow In your herd return
you profit? You cannot know unless
you have tested the milk and keep a
record Of the yield. Use the best mod
ern method and be assured of results.
Loss Of Buttermilk Curd.
Loss Of curd from buttermilk can
be saved by straining through very
fine meshed cheesecloth or by adding
a small quantity, about one-fourth
sweet skimmilk to three-fourths but
termilk. Let the mixture stand over
night at temperature Of about 90
degrees. Then heat the next morning
to about 100 degrees and let stand one
hour.
Dairyman Must Know His Cows.
The successful dairyman must be a
student OF the task before him. He
must know his cows. know how to
care for them. know how to handle
their product ard know how to breed
for better stock. This. OF course. he
cannot do unless he has the pure bred
ball to breed from. This Is one Of the
prime requisites Of the profitable dairy
farm.
Main Points In Dairy Cow.
In judging the qualities Of COW as
to whether she will prove profitable
first look at the head. II should be-
comparatively small, clean cut In OUT
line ind thin. The neck should be
small and tapering and quite narrow
Immediately back OF the head. Her
eye should be clear and prominent.
This indicates nerve force and energy.
The body Of the cow should be slightly
wedge shaped, with good. ample heart
girtb The udder IL the third point Of
great importance. II should be well
developed. not fieshy. and well veined.
These are the main points In the dairy
COW, but they do not guarantee good
mixer by any means. though Ii Is al
ways well to consider them.

HORSES SHOWN AT FAIRS. I
Good Judgment Required on the Part
of Managers.

An authority says: The showing OF
horses at state and county fails, i've
stock eSpositions and other such
events has proved to be OF immense
value In stimulating horse breeding.
The great value Of horse shows
should be recognized by all. and the
fullest support should be given their
projectors.
The drst and greatest work has been
the creating OF standard. aud IL Is
absolutely necessary TO keep up the
high marks that have been SET and
not permit the awarding of money for
horses of no particular merit This Is
a mistake that has been made at some
fairs where he management was uu-

sired TO throw the doors wide open 10

To award . premium 10 a scrub stat

with the further effect of stimulating
the breed of scrubs rather than Of
horses of high quality.
The qualities that enter into the
makeup Of the winning horse are
stamina. vitality. correctness Of form,
symmetry. weight. beauty, speed,
firmness of bone. abundance of mus
cular tissues. intelligence and action.
These are definite qualities. and it is
desirable thar all horses bred in this
country have them.
All men that expect to show their
horses at fairs are continually breed

qualities and as many other good quail

nrains For Diet.

There is a latent truth In the primi-
tive Maori belief that by eating the
brains OF his enemies a warrior ac-
ouired their skill and cunning.
1t was n custom among these saw
ages. whose descendants ! have seen
and admired in Hawaii and New Yea
land, to hold a brain feast after a sue
cessful battle. The conquering chief
always reserved for his own portion
the gray matter Of the opposing leader.
Observe how the practice works out in
modern life We do not actually eat
our rivals brains, but IL we are wise
we will try to absorb what those
brains contain. The man who makes a
big success Is the man who makes the
best use OF his enemies. studies their
moves. learns their method, knows
what thought processes they are apt to
follow. Down here in the street
guess we're more or less akin to the
Naoris, anyway.-New York Herald.

GOOD POINTS OF DAIRY cow
Animal Should Possess Rather Thin,
! PIiaEIe Elastic Skin-Udde7
10 Important Feature.

A good dairy COW possesses rather
thin, pliable, elastic skin. A coarse,
harsh handling skin is a poor indica-
ton. When cows possess these quail
ties OF. skin they are rarely good pro-
ducers
Much attention should be given the
udder of the dairy cow-a large udder
does not indicate that it is good one
They are often very f1eshy: a good
udder should be elastic and pliable,
and shows many folds when MIXED
out. The teats should be placed
equal distances apart and which is
generally always the case if the udder
is symetrical and we'll proportioned.
Large milk veins are good intiica tiuiIis
the more winding and branching they
are the better the Indication. The
veins do not carry milk, as many
think, but carry the blood from the
udder to the body and the more
blood that passes through the udder
the more milk there is produced be-
cause the milk is produced from tbs
blood

OF shouting and speilbinding. The body
electorate at once split up into four
distinct parties, the real Monegasques,
the true Monegasques, the Monaco pa
triots and the Progressive National
lists of Monaco. The last-named party
came out at the top Of the polls and
holds the majority in the communal
council
The prince has granted the council
supplies amounting to 100000 q year.
The question before the council, i'm
probable as it may seem, is what to
do with the money. Every public ex-
penditure is covered already several
times over by the profits of the
Monte Carlo gambling tables. The
coullcii's budget, therefore, will work
out something like this: Annual rev.
enue, 100000; expenditure, nil.
The day of the political boss has
not yet dawned in Monaco, but it will
probably come, and then there may
be some modification in the unique
balance sheet
