WATER FOR THE DAIRY COW.

II Is very important that the wa
ter drunk by the cows giving three
or more gallons Of milk daily be
warmed to about 90 degrees r.
Otherwise the cows will not drink
as much as they need to keep up n
good milk flow. 1t does not take
much ice water to chill a thin-fleshed
dairy COW through and through ON a
cold winter day, especially when
she is compelled tn walk some dis
lance through the snow or cutting
wind to get to the tank or pond.
Experiments made at the Nilsson
ri Station show that drinking water
is needed in proportion to the milk
Weld. That is, "A cow giving six
gallons OF milk Il day needs about
twice as much water as cow Civ

ter is TOO cold to he comfortable II
drunk in large quantities, the COW
will not drink enough and as re-
suit will drop considerably In her

London Globe.
Prince Burban-Eddin, Abdul Ham

Answers to Queries

APPLE OF THE EYE-Subscriber. City. What
is meant by "the apple of the eye'?
According to our method of writ
ing the word apple says LIE Mon. ANY
person would suppose that by the apple
of the eye we meant the ball of the
eye; but, Notwithstanding the apparent
connection between these two ideas, the
apple of the eye means quite another
thing, at least the derivation points out
a different meaning; for the Greek and
Latin words from which we have taken
our expression do really signify some
thing different from the ball of the
eye. The Greek words are parthenos.
kore and pals and the Latin word is
pupi1la; all of which signify what is
commonly called the bird of the eye;
that little opening or round hole, that
admits the rays of light, and through
which is reflected from the bottom of

Making the Cartwright

HE indictment of the responsible heads of the local
fish trust marks long step in advance, and in the
direction of emancipation for the consumer from
the exactons of criminal conspaces raise the prices of
food products and other necessares of life by of
combinations in restraint of competition
The Call has realized that the prevailing and oppres
slvely high cost of living and is due in nconsider
able measure to these criminal conspiracies and the fish
trust selected the first object of attack and perhaps
the most deserving of punishment by reason of it's fragrant
law breaking and dishonest methods To forward this end
The Call offered financial and personal assistance to the
municipal department OF justice, realizing that the appro
priaon for support of the district attorneys office made
no provision for special work of this character
Mr.. Fickert welcomed this help as the only means by
which effective action could be taken under the Cartwright
law against trusts which is defective in this particular
that provides for its enforcement This was an
instance wherein private enterprise required to carry
out the provisions of law intended to correct grave
abuse but falling short of the point of effectiveness The
Cartwright law has been in effect for years. but it
has rarely been invoked, although numerous cases of
nfractlon notorious to the point of public scandal
Backed by this essential assistance, Mr. Fickert has
proceeded with energy and ability make the necessary
accumulation of evidence and lay the matter before the
grand jury with the result that indictments have been filed
and arrests will follow Attorney General Webb has prom
work, so the way is made clear. But no part of this
useful enterprise could have been set in motion had it not
been for the volunteer service of The Call
Already the price of fish has been reduced by the
trust not at all for any concerned with the law of
demand and supply but simply because this law breaking
trust is frightened into full retreat It took nothing more
than hasy order from the headquarters of the trust to
cut prices Nothing had happened increase the supply
of fish, but the price, being purely artificial measure fixed
arbitrarily by the trust reduced to allay the popular
feeling against the law breakers.
This repentance comes too late and the conspirators
will be all the better citizens for sharp lesson that the law
must be obeyed and for realizing that crime
to raise by artificial the prices necessares of life
There are other trusts engaged in articiay boosting
the prices of food products They have hitherto suf
ered to operate with immunity because of the defect the

The revision of Congress.

The Republican majority in the Con-
gress now in session had full year
to digest the Republican national plat
form, with its clear-cut promise to
lower the cost to consumers of the nee
essaries of life. Last year this Con-
gress went into session with a clear
tariff reduction mandate from the peo-
pie, and concurrent pledge from the
ruling party.
The result was the Aldrich-Taft law
which, measured by the standard of
the 1908 Republican platform, is no
tariff revision at all. The chief bene-
ficiaries are still the trusts-not the
people who buy and produce.
Therefore, the supporters of real
tariff revision must revise Congress-
The fires of indignation are burning
