Any Other Office.

The planks of the New York Repub-
lioan state platform will bear very dis

Roosevelt mature.
James y. Reynolds. investigator ex'
traordinary for Colonel Roosevelt In
times past. and ever his admirer. went
to Oyster Bay TO talk over labor mat
ters in general and what the Repub.
Leans will have TO promise later in
the platform in particular.
The two men were In consultation
for the greater part OF the morning.
but the colonel did not care to go into
the details OF their talk. He simply
said in ~ og-hand manner. as though
II were an accepted fact that the plat
form would have progressive leanings,
and that they discussed what to put
into the labor plank.
Also Mr.. Roosevelt silenced for the
time being all talk OF his running for
governor this fall. He told inquirers
that he could say nothing additional TO
what he had said on his return from
Europe and repeated in dozens of let
tiers since that time, and that was
that under no circumstances could he
accept the gubernatorial nomination.
The same statement. he added. applied
to the Craftsmanship of the state com.
mittee. He lapsed into silence. how
ever. when questioned as to the pos.
sibility of his becoming temporary
chairman of the state convention
When Mr. Reynolds had gone on his
way Mr.. Roosevelt referred to the re-
suits OF the primaries. which appar-
emily he had foreseen since he said;
Il am naturally gratified It is no less
than expected
Some one bobbed up with the infor-
nation that Miles Poindexter. of Spo-
kane. an insurgent leader in the house,
had defeated the old guard for sena,
torial nomination In the state OF
Washington TO the tune of 10000 plu'
rality. The colonel rubbed HIS hands
together delightedly. and he decided
right away TO make statement. and
here il is:
Just as IN South Dakota. where the
regulars won. urged their opponents
TO support the winners heartily so
must earnestly urge that the progress
sives in the state of Washington be
given the hearty support of the regu'
lars there"

7. q. snubs Lorlmer.

Mr. Roosevelt didn't mince matters
in his speech before the Hamilton
club, of Chicago. He hit out straight
from the shoulder and told the men Of
Illinois that the four men who have
been indicted for bribing the legisla-
ture and the four who have confessed
have committed a most infamous trea-
son against American institutions.
The colonel told Chicago that they
ought to be ashamed to allow men of
corrupt leanings to represent them in
the legislature. He said that any sane
minded man who had read the reports
OF the two district attorneys engaged
In the Lorimer case could arrice at
only one conclusion. lie didn't men
ton names, but he made himself clear
on every point.
One of the important points that
Colonel Roosevelt brought out was the
fact that 1t is not necessary to convict
a man in a court of law to be able 10
drive him out of public life.
Law honesty isn't the only thing. he
said II you know he is crooked cinch

istrative heads have the power of re-

Mr.. Roosevelt refused to sit at the
same table with I.orimer. AS soon as
he heard that the Illinois senator, who
has been in the limelight concerning
bribery charges of his election. was
scheduled to appear at the Hamilton
club dinner Mr. Roosevelt angrily de-
clared that In that case he wouldn't
attend. He was very emphatic in his
declarations. too.

GOAT MILK FOR HEALTH.
Doctors Prescribe It, and Demand e*-
ceeds Supply.


Concerning goat milk an authority
ON goats has the following to say; one
OF the most easily digested as well as
nutritious foods for human consump-
tion is goat milk. The most eminent
medical authorities hold that 1t Is the
most dependable of all foods Tor the
production of adipose tissue and Tor
this reason is ideal for dyspeptic anu
emaciated people. Where others faii
it succeeds. Although digested more
readily, goat milk contains nearly
twice the amount of butter fat-that
is. the quality that nourishes-tnah Is
contained i'm the milk obtained from
the COW.
Moreover. to those accustomed TO
the difference the former Is more PAL
atable. more delicious to the taste.
This fact. together with its conceded
value as a nourishing food. has estaD-
lished substantial demand for goat
milk for domestic use. A brisk de-
mnnd exists and a ready sale awaits
all that is produced. The price Is about
% cents a quart.
A considerable quantity is sold upon
the recommendations of progressive
physicians. 1t Is particularly bench
cial to infants afflicted with stomach
or bowel troubles or those worried
with intestinal worms. Many feeble
and aged people purchase 1t also and
derive great benefit from its use. IL
makes the weak strong and the strong
stronger. Those suffering with tuber-
culosis find it Il boon indeed.
A close personal experience covering
many years has proved beyond doubt
that the benefits attending the indus
try of raising milk goats exceed by
far those to be had In breeding or
dealing in any other kind of domestic
stock. AS money making PROPOSE
ton a goat milk and cheese dairy
proves a veritable gold mine ut home
Considering the few dollars invested
no other legitimate enterprise COM
pares with 1t.
Milk is an admitted necessity to ev-
cry one from the day of birth to that
of death. But the milk should be rich
and pure This is why goat milk is
regarded so highly. for eminent physi-
clans the world over cOncede that 1t
is an embodiment of purity and whole
someness. 1t is recommended. there
fore. frequently not only as remedy
but cure for many Of the Ills to
which mankind is heir.

MAKING BUTTER
IN HOT WEATHER.

According to well known dairy
man. butterlaking on the farm in hot
weather has always been difficult, and
the same holds true in most of the
creameries. Heat Injuries the grain or
body of the butter directly and the
flavor indirectly.
Butter with poor body and poor fla
vor is displeasing and unprottaDle.
good body can be secured at any time
of the year if the temperature of the
cream is low enough. Ice will take
care of that. If ice is not used, wen
or spring water will answer the pur-
pose if cool enough.
few farmers have cellars so clean
and cool that churninS can he done
successfully all summer. Those who
churn on the ground floor can do vast
ly better work by churnins early in
the morning. The early morning air
has almost magic gifts in this respect.
Avoiding a Bad Flavor.
But how avoid bad flavor? More
than 200 different kinds of germs have
been found in milk by scientists.
Most of them are harmless; some are
beneficial. But even the helpful
germs, the Tactic acid germs, will spoil
the cream if given time enough. Ripe
cream makes delicious butter. but
when Overripe has a nauseous flavor.
| The secret of the whole matter is to
churn before it becomes overribe.
There are three practices that have
| been proved helpful: First, churn early
and often, so that fermentation will
not have time to progress too far: sec
| ond, hold the cream cold enough to
retard souring: third, skim Il rich
cream with as little milk in it as possi-
Bile. 1t is the milk serum. not the but
| ter fat, which is food for the germs.
Working In the Dairy House.
A dairy house is needed and ce-
mcnt floor. If built of hollow cement
| blocks, all the better. A small gaso-
line engine will run the separator and
| the churn and pump water Turn the
separator screw so as to skim thick
cream. Set the can of cream in IL tank
of cold water in the dairy house, this
| water being kept fresh and cold by
| the engine and the overflow running
| out for stock use.
Twice week take the cream cans
out of the tank. mix the cream thor
oughly and let it warm up. At night
| set it back in the cold water tank and
early next morning churn it. This
| method will work successfully. In
large dairy churning can be done ev-
cry day. and ripening watts and COM
bined chiIIns are in order.
If you have not Il good cellar for
ice or cold water making good but
ter in hot weather is out of the ques-
ton. Do not try. Failure is sure.
Get the conveuiences. The essential
conveniences are few and simple, as
mentioned above. Get them and be-
come master of the situation.
