With average stock, the horns
should be removed, as it is much
easier to keep peace in the herd with
dehorned cattle This may be done
in calfhood with caustic soda or pot
ash. Clip the hair around the little
buttons, dampen the horn slightly, and
rub with dry stick of potash. Sepa-
rate the calves in little pens for few
days so they cannot lick each other
Do not turn them out in the rain dur
ing this time. When mature stock are
to be dehorned use good, sharp meat
saw, taking the horns off close to the
head so that they will not grow again.
Remove from one-quarter inch to one
half inch of the hair with the horn,
which will prove to be about close
enough. Dehorning should be done
in the spring, or late fall, when there
are no flies, but not in too cold wealth

The Minnesota Experiment Station
has found that success in handling
dairy cattle depends greatly upon
proper feeding. Much time has been
devoted to this work by Professor T.
L. Hacker, and his investigation
thoroughly demonstrates the fact that
in order to get economical results the
grain feeds must be combined in the
proper proportions to form a balanced
ration. If grains alone that are high
in carbohydrates are fed, the COW will
take on fat, will not produce well, and
may eventually become spoiled. There
are three food essentials which must
be supplied in proper proportions
protein, carbohydrates and fat. When
this is done, and the COW is made alb
solutely comfortable, good results may
be expected at the pail.

The COW should be put into a box
stall several days before caIVing, and
given liberal supply of bedding. Be-
fore and after this period she should

be fed lightly, and feed gradually in
creased up to the thirtieth day, when
she should be at her maximum flow
of milk. It is bad policy to milk out
the udder clean for the first few days,
as in heavy mixers it is liable to
cause milk fever. Should milk fever
occur, use the air treatment This is
nothing more than pumping air into
the udder,

BILE it is necessary to supply from four
to five square feet of window space
per head. In summer the windows ana
doors should be darkened with shades
or burlap to keep out the flies. The
doors may be hung with burlap dfvid-
ed in the center like the door of dog
kennel This keeps the barn dark and
brushes off the flies when the cows
enter.

While feeding, calves should be
fastened in small stanchions and kept
in until the nose is dry, so that no
sucking is done. The grain should be
fed while the calves are secure.

An unhappy life is an idle one.
Those who are happiest are the

say that we can find no labor. Life

sion to remind our readers that the
seyerest handicap placed upon the

Another Ws1d Of Warning.

The Republican party was swept
into power by sentiment" said Cen
eral James s Clarkson. Republican
war horse and until yesterday Sur
yeyor OF the Port OF New York for the
past eight years. For IL years 1t has
lived through commercialism.
1T came into power as the cham
pion OF human liberty. The first right
of man is the right to earn his liv.
ing, and in that right the party is not
protecting the citizens Of this country.
ANY debt the negro owed the Republi-
can party he has paid. 1t would be
better for the negro to divide his vote.
The Republican party has betrayed
him, and is betraying him now"
In Republican politics the General
has always been looked upon as the
man to get the vote OF the negroes,
because OF their faith in him. He was
a strong abolitionist. AS an editor he
was an enthusiastic advocate of the
Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amend
ments, and as a Republican leader he
fought for their observance.
In the above quotations from
Hearsts New York American is stated
the observations Of a man who was
our fathers friend in the days Of the
reconstruction and who more than any
other retained the confidence OF our
Southern brethren up to this time.
The conditions which We spoke Of in
the last issue Of The Statesman as be-
ing true of Colorado and Negro Re-
publicans. seems not to be local from
what he says. We urge, We implore
the leaders OF the Republican party
to wake up and do justice before 1t

FIVE CENTS A Cory
TRUE FRIEND OF THE RACE.
Henry Artus Says More Negroes Should
Enoaqe In Business.

In a recent address to Afro-Aneri-
cans in New York Henry Artus, a
prominent and influential white man,
who numbers among some of his most
intimate friends large number of
business and professional men of our
race, said:
"As a wellwisher of your race l beg
to offer a suggestion. Even a casu-
al observer knows that no race or
people take so little advantage of busi-
ness opportunities in the northern
cities as do the Negroes. Before an
Italian can speak our language he
owns a push cart or stand from which
he sells fruits, candy or most anything.
Syrians own stores and factories.
Even Cinnamon have various kinds of
businesses of their own. In neighbor
hoods where colored people are numer-
GUS one occasionally sees barber shop
or small grocery store owned by a
Negro.
why a larger number do not engage
in business is hard to understand. In
certain parts of the city shoe stores,
clothing stores and, in fact, all sorts
Of business places would do fine
business If conducted by Negroes. 1t
cannot be said that colored people lack
ability, because records of schools and
colleges show that many high averages
are made by Negroes. Enterprise and
push are what are needed. In some of
the southern cities banks, stores and
factories are being successfully con-

Why don't some of your leaders do
something up north: A general store

erly conducted, would be a success. If
conducted on share plan many fami-
lies would own part and the custom

could plan out such scheme and hope

Yesterday was a day of intense in' terest in the feeling of the people generally in this city over the re- cent assassination of George Mahard and wife, and the belief prevailed that some clue might be established that would lead to the source of the commission of this foul deed. But all were disappointed, and nothing whatever was learned of the motive that prompted the crime, and neither were any persons mentioned upon whom any suspicion whatever could be centcrcd. The only theory that received any approval was that he deed was committed by Mexicans, and especially by those who were known to entertain a hatred for the deceased while he was engaged in mining at Placeritas.
 Telephone advices to the sheriff's office in the forenoon stated that Sheriff Smith was at that time at the Octave camp, watching that sec ton. but what his movements were to be in the future was not stated. Sheriff Simth reached that place af- ter one of the hardest rides he ever made, and % eager was he to follow the tracks he picked ID sssr the

 Sheriff Smith made the announce ment yesterday that he would i.- crease his reward as sheriff fvou se6o to $500 for the arrest and COG. viction of the murderer or murderer, of MT. and Mrs. George Mahard.
 This will aggregate, with the reward offered by the county, Si,0Oo, and it is expected that after the ar- rival in Phoenix of Governor sloes from Tucson, the Territory will take eognizanee of the above sums suA authorize a like sum.
 No developments were announced yesterday as to the identity of ths nurdevers in this frightfui crime, a.l aside from few vague reports h circulation, that could not be traced to s definite source, public sentiment was centered to . line of theories, that did not materially affect the ss- lution of the crime.
 Owing to the prominence of the Mnhsrds, the foul crime continues te absorb attention, and the residents hope 10 see the assassins captured and given the full penalty of the law. Sheriff Smith Is exerting himself in every way possible to effect the capture of the criminals, hence the heavy rewards that he offers person ally.

 After three days in the saddle, in an effort Co get some trace of the murderers of George Mahsrd and his wife, Sheriff Smith returned 70 the city last night. He reports that he was unable to locate the assassins or secure any definite clue as to their identity.
 He travelled from the scene of the crime, at Orc Fino, through Walnut Grove, the Oak Creek region, Weaver, Octave and other places that might be selected by the fugitives in their flight, and after a thorough search of that section, returned via stanton, Yarnell and Peoples Valley to Kirk. land, being unable 10 gain any in formation or to learn anything that would lead to the capture at this time of the sssassins.
 In speaking of what was in evil dence at Gro Fino, where the bodies were found by him on Monday night, the sheriff gives an entirely differ ent version from that heretofore pub. lished. He is of the opinion that Mrs. Mahard was the first one to be shot down, and bases this on the be. lief that the sssassins approached the kitchen tent, while her husband was away, and fired but one shot, the bullet striking her in the right eye, when she fell to the floor, death resulting instantly. Where Mrs. Ma. hard fell there was an immense amount of blood on the floor
 This fatal shot, he believes, at tractcd the attention of Mir. Mahard, and as he came between tho kitchen tent and the bedroom tent, and had reached a point close to the door of the former, he received the wound in the face, and fell, striking the bottom of the canvas. The point where Mshsrd struck the canvas show sd blood stains, and after laying on tAe ground for an instant, he evi. lently raised himself to . stepping position, when the second shot wss arsd, the bullet reseAias his breast

to Prescott. He will remain for sew eral days to assist in the running down of the murderers, and to look after the business interests of Mir. Mahard, on behalf of his wife.
 Yesterday afternoon, Ed. Nj. Blake, q former resident of the city. arrived from Naco, Ariz., and also comes ts look after the business interests of the deceased in mining and milling properties, in which he was asso- eiated. Mir. Blake, in speaking ef the crime, deeply regrets the loss sf his partner, and is also here to assist in any way in the capture of the men responsible for the eowardly deed. The interests of the two mes are said to be valuable in mining ground and are located at the Placer itas, where MT. Mshsrd operated for several years. A ten stamp qusyss mill is among the property owned by them at that place.
 According to the Phoenix Republic an, the supposed murdersrs were ssss near Glendale. The Republican says: "The two MeIicans who murdered George Mshsrd and his wife near O,s tino, Yavspai county, on MosAay morning, probably were in camp sst far from Glendale for . short tine on Tuesday night, long enough e rest and feed their tired horses.
 "A telephone message wss received at the office of the sheriff last nisht from Constable Rudd of Glendale. saying that a Mexican woman livisr on the north side of town, on tAs other side of the Arizona canal, Id reported that . couple of Mexics,s, riding big horses, one of them . stsl- lion, had come to her place on Tues- day night. to buy some hay. Thsir horses had the appearance of having been ridden very hard and long.
 "There is little doubt that thy are the men whom Sheriff Smith q Yavspai is following. It is knov, that the murdcrers fled south ana n was learned that Sheriff Smith Asl come to Octave. Of his movements after that nothing has been heard.
