Farm Dairying

Paper read by R. l.. Sawyer be-
fore the Farmers Institute:
In speaking to my friends for a
few moments on the important topic
of farm dairying, l wish first to say
that if can give you one thought
and give it to you in such way
that 1t will cause you to do better
work in the line of farm dairying, l
shall feel amply repaid for this
effort.
More and better milk under the
same condition of feed and shelter
is what would have you get. Do
you know that one individual will
get this from COW as compared to
some other individual who might
milk the same COW at the same time.
: his is caused by the effect of the
person milking on the nervous
temperament of the COW. One
quiets, paciefs and soothes, while
the other irritates and worries the
COW. Many believe that the cow
can give her milk down or retain it
as she chooses. This is a great
mistake and should be better under
stood. These same people think
that the udder is full of milk just
previous to the process of milking.
On the contrary, the udder is full OF
blood with only very small amount
of milk. From this blood, the COW,
h milk mandatory, actually
makes or manufactures the milk as
you proceed with the milking. Now
if you in any way disturb the peace
and quiet of the COW, the process is
arrested. By this you see the COW
has nothing to do with it. 1t all
depends on your ability to keep
everything quiet and normal. This
process is helped or hindered in just
about the same way that digestion
is. 1t is just as essential to bring a
little mental activity to bear in dairy
farming as IN any other line of work.
Listen to this: "He that ruleth
himself is greater than he that taketh
city," When you go to milk rule
yourself and thereby rule the COW,
and do it every time If you would
succeed best in dairy farming.

Wheat Conditions

Wheat Conditions
After inquiring of wheat grow
ers from all parts of this coun-
ty and southern Ford and south
east Gray, we have sized the con-
dition up as follows. That IN all
parts there has been some loss
by severe weather in the winter,
and later conditions. That the
injury is not general in any part,
but is confined to spots, in field
or to a farm. The reason for
this has not been made clear to
us, but there seems to be three
main causes. First very early
sown fields seem to have suffer-
ed most. Field or parts of fields
which for any cause held the
snow or accumulated more water
than others have generally been
injured. Then fields which
we're worked down fine at seed
ing time have baked worse after
the wet season closed than others
which were not so fine, or that
had trash on them which shield
ed the surface from sun and
wind. On a majority of the
fields on the flats a crust has
formed which in many instances
has injured the crop. For all
fields narrowing has been sug-
gested as remedy, and es-
pecially for those which are
crusted as most are. When the
Manhattan professor was here
at the last institute meeting, he
recommended narrowing which
opinion was concured in by all of
the farmers present. Many
farmers had already been using
the harrow, aud many others
have since been using it and so
far as we have talked with them
all believed that to be the best
thing for the crop now. The
indications now are that many
fields will have thin stand, that
there are many smaller spots in
most fields which will be bare of
wheat. That there are but few
if any fields which are so badly
damaged that it will be neces-
sary to plant a spring crop. The
most usual damage by the un-
usally wet winter seems so to be
the crust over the surface, which
narrowing is relieving, the next
is what has never occurred here,
and that IS what is known as
heaving. That is the ground be-
ing wet the frost heaved up pull
ing the wheat up with it leaving
the roots bare. The thinning of
the stand means weeds in the
wheat. But they can be kept
down to some degree by harrow
ing. The consensus of opinion
we have been able to gather is
that narrowing well, and per-
haps more than once will be a
great help to the wheat.

Obituary


bon, Noble county, Indiana, August
23rd, 1912, and died at her home in
Meade county, Kansas, March ID,
1910,
Thus her life covered all that we
call the development of the west,
that is west of Ohio. Noble county
in northeastern Indiana, was at that
time almost an unbroken wilderness.
West of there but little had been
accomplished in opening up the
country. Yet as little girl she had
accompanied her parents to Texas
and back In wagon. The settle
ment in Texas by her father had
been with the intention of remain
ing, but the shadow of the coming
civil war soon cast a portentious
gloom over the land. Mr. Isbel
thereupon returned to the north.
She married while yet quite young
a Mr.. Thomas Moore, and they
made their home at Chicago, Illi-
nois, where Mr.. Moore took up the
business of heavy draying, moving
machinery and general hauling of
that kind, with several teams. This
he continued up to his death which
was in 1883. His wife although
a frail little woman, decided to con-
tinue the business. For several
years she attended to all the busi-
ness details, made estimates, super.
intended the actual loading and de-
livering of all difficult jobs, and
especially the placing of heavy
safes in upper Offices, of high build
ings, and locating machinery in
shops.
The stories of the novel writers,
of such work and success by
widow have her life as foundation.
In early life she was converted and
having been raised under religious
parents she took up her duties as a
practical Christian with full know
ledge OF their responsibilities, and
conscientiously attend to the duties
of life as she understood her bible.
In 1908 she was united in marriage
to Ira A. Smith, who had in early
life been the husband of her elder
sister. She came to Meade county
to consummate this marriage, and
has lived as happily as her invalid
condition of health permitted, in
the home provided for her by her
husband. After her health became
so bad that severe pain was of daily
and almost hourly occurance, she
longed to 60 home, and waited with
the patience of strong Christian
faith for the summons from NOR
tality. Almost her last words were
when can 60 home, her daughter
in law replied it will not be long
now. l am so glad she said. Of
near relatives there survive her an
adopted son. John T. Moore, of
Stocton California, two brothers,
William II. Isbell of Kendallville,
Indiana, and NathanielH. Isbell, of
Plattsmouth, Nebraska, and two
sisters, Mrs. Alice Goodwin now at
Shelbyville, Indiana lying at deaths
door, and Mrs. Harriette Cole, OF
Kendallville, Indiana.
The friends, and neighbors of the
family gathered at the Presbyterian
church on Tuesday the 18th, where
the funeral services we're conducted
by Rev. Hancks of the Baptist
church, after which all that was
mortal of this devoted Christian
woman was laid to rest in Grdceland
Cemetary.

PROF. JENSEN WRITES
ON TREE PLANTING
Has an Article in Last Issue of
The Globe
THF INFORMATION IS MISLEADING
Species and Method of Handling
Should be Given

The article printed last week
by the Globe from the pen of
Prot. Jensen of the Dodge eX-
pertinent station, was offered to
the News some three weeks ago
and turned down. We have had
some experience in raising trees
in a nursery and some in plant
ing in Meade county. We have
been making observations on
tree planting here since 1886.
We objected to the paper be-
cause it is misleading. 1t gen.
eralizes, is acedamic and not
practical. Possibly useful to an
experienced man in tree culture,
but will lead an experienced per-
son, just beginning here, into
loss. He ommends cedars
and pines without stating the sort
of cedar to plant. The western
red cedar of the cedar canyons
south of us, and of the Platt
river, as also of the foot hills
west of us, will grow here if pro-
per care is taken in handling
and planting them. The species
and method of handling should
have been given. The eastern
red cedar is of no value here.
The advice to plant rows of trees
across the farm is not good.
IT ees planted in clumps and on
sandy land if there is any on
the farm are a benefit, but rows
across the farm are a nuisance,
The winds of western Kansas
are not the curse which atender-
foot imagines they are.
His list of hardy trees is well
given, with exceptions. Among
others he names ash. Green
ash is all right, and all that he
claims for it, but no other ash is
any good here. Chinaberry is
another recommendation, it will
grow, we know by experience,
having planted some in 1886, and
been since 1892 trying to kill
them out. But what one wants
of them in tree plantation we
do not know, thev are never a
tree here, that is one large
enough to be of service. Coffee
bean also recommended, will,
along the side valleys in the
bluffs of the Missouri river at
tain in 100 years the size of a
stove pipe. Among those rec
commended tor a reasonably
favorable location on the up land
is the cottonwood. The cotton
wood will not grow more than
five years where the water sup
ply is at a greater depth than
80 feet. This fact was noted
and referred to by ex-governor,
Furnas of Nebraska, rs years
ago. Furnas has done more
for western tree planting and
the successful growing of forests
on the plains than any other ten
men. Ia 1886 we stated to Mr..
Crane that his Cottonwoods
planted on the east flats would
die in few years. He hooted
at it. Later hearing us advise
uncle Hughey MCGOWAN o
plant the cottonwood grove now
growing on the bottom east of
town the one on the old Howard
farm owned now by Fred Stald-
er)he broke in to say that cotton
wood was not worth D., would
die in a short time. We recall
ed our remark to him and he re-
plied that we knew nothing

A SMOKE CONSUMING
FURNACE INVENTED
Will Save One-Half or More in
Fuel Consumption
A BROTHER OF ?. ]. LEE OF MEADE
Is the Inventor. In Use in Large
New York Factory u

New York Factory vi
Il. f. F. Lee of New York, a
brother of our popular contractor
and builder P. ]. Lee, has reach
ed the goal sought by all furnace
and stove builders. That is to
say, that he has found the way
to burn the gasses from the coal,
instead of allowing them to es-
cape up the f1ue.
His method of fuel saving has
been applied to the furnace of
large factory at Dover, New
York. and at two or three other
plants, with the result, that one
half or more less fuel is needed
to run the plant than with the
old method of open CRATE fur
mace. In addition the produc-
tion of steam has been increased
so that smaller boilers are in
use, with an increased power tor
the engines. The furnace in
vented and patented by Mr..
Lee is a perfect smoke consum-
er, the gasses being fully con-
sumed, results in burning all es-
Gaping carbon.
The fact that all the inflam-
able gasses are consumed, makes
the use of bituminous coal more
prof table than the use of anthra-
cite. That again cuts the fuel
price down. The Dover plant
has used the Lee furnace for
three years, and the others near
ly as long a time. The furnace
is easily applicable to either loco
motive, or ships engine use, as
well as stationary engines and is
practical in stove construction.
The New York Central and
Hudson River Ry. has thorough
ly investigated the Lee furnace,
and are about to put it into use
on their system. We saw let
ter from the manager of the de-
partment, under which the sub
ject comes, as to its use by the
road, in which he strongly COM
mends the Lee furnace, and
depreciates the use of the pre-
sent style as being was teful IN
the extreme. The brothers of
Il. +. Lee are all interested with
him in the development of his
idea, and when p. ]. last return
ed from New York, he built a
small modelin his shop. This
he experimental with, and show
ed to his friends, but after the
successful application of the Lee
furnace to different engines and
power plants he tore it down.
The furnace, as the above quot
ed r. r. official says, is simply
itself. One may say that it is
the development of the idea en-
braced in the construction of the
base burning heater. AS de-
scaibed to us, the Lee furnace
for engine use consists of a
greatly reduced CRATE surface,
entirely enclosed and with di-
rect draft so arranged that
it can be shut entirely off.
The fuel is not fed into the fur
mace, but into hopper which is
in effect a retort.
A fire is kindled on the CRATE
with the direct draft, and con-
tlnued till the coal in the hopper
IS so hot that inflamable gasses
begin to escape; the draft is
turned on from above the coal,
and the damper opening into the
flue chamber of the ordinary
boiler is opened. the result be-
ing that all of the gasses are con-
sumed where the heat is direct
! ly applied to the boiler. AS the

SHALL MEADE HAVE A
FARMERS SALE Day
The Idea is Proving a Winner
Wherever Tried
liberal FOUND IT VERY PROFITABLE
And The News Believes it Should
be Adopted Here


day is being taken up in a num-
Der of towns in this section Of
the state and is meeting with
universal approval among the
farmers living in the country
near where these sales are held
The last town to fall into line
is Liberal. For some time the
merchants of that town have
kept an eye on the sale days at
Hooker, Oklahoma, twenty miles
south, and finally decided it was
a profitable undertaking. This
decided, they went to work to
make it success for Liberal.
The following from the Lib
eral News will no doubt be taken
as evidence that their fondest
dreams, and more, were realized.
The article follows:
The big Salesday, the first
that Liberal has tried, was sue
cess despite the March wind
which carried the sand and dirt
high and made standing around
rather disagreeable. We made
an attempt to secure an estimate
of the amount of sales made, but
only a guess can be secured.
Some think the sales amounted
to from three to five thousands
dollars, others place the amount
higher. At any rate five auc-
tioneers we're kept busy and a
great crowd of buyers were
present. ]. w. Campbell, who
has been much engaged IN es-
tablishing the salesday says that
the sale was a greater success
than the committee had expect
ed to see for the first attempt.
The salesday for Liberal is to
become an established and an
important date. The fl r S t
Tuesday of each month is It's
official date.
The next salesday is expected
to be greater and it's promoters
expect to make the date the red
letter day of the towns calendar.
Speaking of the event the Lib
eral Independent has the follow
ing:
Liberals first sales day Tues
day proved to be a grand sue
cess. Most everything in gen
era1 use was offered. 1t is esti-
( ted that the proceeds of the
sale will amout to 100000.
Probably five hundred people
were present. When the date
of these sales become we'll liked
in the minds we can expect large
crowds. The next sale will be
on the first Tuesday in April.
From this it will be seen that
the people of that town are salts
ned with the plan and will keep
it going,
The News is of the opinion
that the merchants of Meade
should take steps to the end
that this town shall have have a
sale day. The event brings the
people to town from far and
near and money is put, into cir
culation which will find its way
back into the pockets of every
business concern in town. The
farmer is enabled to find a ready
market for anything he may
have to sell. Many farmers have
pelces of machinery, few hogs,
chickens, COW or horse, which
they would sell If the expense of
advertising sale would admit,
and as these sales furnish them
the crowd of buyers without any
outlay, except a small per cent to
