IMPROVING THE DAIRY HERD
Best Results Only Can Be Obtained
by Exactly Testing the Milk
Produced by Each Cow.

Every farmer is interested in his
herd of dairy COWS because of the
money the cows bring him. Very few
farmers, however, have any knowl-
edge of what their cows are doing
Most of the farmers judge of the quail
ity of their cows from the amount of
milk each one gives. If she gives a
large mess of milk she is usually 1.-THE
best cow on the farm" and if a small
mess she is not very good cow"
This is an unscientific way of judg.
ing of the individual cow or the herd.
To help farmers upon higher plane
of dairying has been a study of the
Minnesota department of agriculture
for several years. Through a long
series of experiments the department
has found that the testing of individu-
al cows, weighing their milk and test
ing it is practical and necessary If one
is to breed up his herd intelligently.
The department now recommends the
organization of cooperative COW test
ing associations in any neighborhood
where a sufficient number of cows is
kept. This is not a hard matter to
do. Let fifteen or twenty farmers join
together in a neighborly way and sign
an agreement to stand by each other
for year, agreeing to pay $100 or a
$3.50 per year per cow for some one
who shall make it his duty to appear
at each farm once a month for a year
at milking time, see the cows MIXED
weigh their milk, test it, and make a
record of each cows work and leave
1t with her owner. In this way a prac-
tical man thoroughly acquainted with
the work can be employed to give his
experience to the dairyman at so low
a cost as to make his employment
necessity to every owner Of a consid-

b. H. CANNON CHARGED WITH
STEALING FURNITURE

The Capital News of May 31st,
states that B. H. Cannon, a real estate
dealer of Boise who recently left for
Denver, was charged with grand lar
ceny on account of stripping the home
of E. G. Cook of Boise, of nearly all
the furniture, china, silverware and
bric-a-brac.
Cannon spent the winter in Boise,
having rented the home of e. G. Cook,
who spent the winter abroad, and
thought by having Cannon in the
house he would have it well cared
~.
A short time ago, says the MARIA
tive, Cannon boxed up a large part
of the property and under cover of
darkness, had it taken to the Office of
a local transfer company. He ex-
pressed some things, but nothing is
known of what the packages con-
tanned. Mr.. Cooks agent learned
something of the movements of Can
non and obtained search warrant
and had the boxes opened. He next
wired the authorities in Denver to
look out for Cannon. The goods had
not been shipped pending the arrival
of money to pay the charges.
Cannon Was Here
Cannon was here last year, and was
connected with some transactions at
Pingree, it being reported at one time
that he had jumped the Pingree town.
site. He drove a fine span of blacks,
sometimes appeared with mock cow
boy regalia and six shooter, much
to the disgust of the inhabitants, and
in many ways calling forth unfavor-
able comment.
Mr.. Cannon transacted considerable
business in the Grove City and did
much business by long distance
phone. However, he so frequently
called up from hotels and kept the
collector in hot water with line
charges, that they adopted the plan
of making him 60 to the exchange and
push his money through the window
before using the line.
If Mr.. Cannon will call and settle
what he owes at this Office we will
give him receipt in full.

PEANUTS AND PINK LEMONADE
ARE POPULAR

HOlllSter Free Lance
Ladies and gentlemen: The great
Campbell Brothers Consolidated
Shows, presenting an endless array
of marvellous and death defying acts,
producing the startling, sensations of
the twentieth century-but what S
the use.
What We wish to say is that one
of the best, cleanest and most hon
orably conducted shows on earth is
visitingHollister today, and as this
is being written the mammoth tent
Is crowded by thousands of excited
men, women and children, who are
present to witness the matinee per-
ormance. Another exhibition will be
given tonight, statring at s o'clock,
the doors open an hour earlier.
The Campbells came to town
shortly before daylight this morn
ing travelling on their own special
trains hauled by powerful putting To-
comOtives. The railway yards were
soon filled with the yellow cars and
tented city sprang up surrounding
the depot and extending far out into
the ball grounds.
The parade, which was witnessed
by large crowds that alm0;t taxed
the capacity of the sidewalks, passed
into San Benito street from South
street and headed north shortly be-
fore II a. m. The pageant was
dazzling spectacle and made a fine
impression. The spectacle consisted
of hundreds of high-spirited horses,
with their natty trimmings; South
American Gauchos and Australian
boomerang throwers; bright-eyed
senortas from Mexico; desert-born
Arabs, japanese athletes and Hindu
fakirs; master horsemen of the uni
verse, funny clowns, with their trick
mules and ponies; cages containing
the wild beast and trained animals;
the heard o elephants, camels, etc.
The parade was headed by troop
Of lady buglers, followed by a brass
band. Three big bands divided the
march into sections, and then came
the steam caliope, without which no
circus would be complete.
Campbell Brothers are known per-
sonally to the Free Lance and back
East the are regarded as being
among the best showmen on the

DAIRY NOTES.

One bad butter COW will eat up the
profit Of several good ones.
Cool the milk as soon as 1t comes
from the cow both in winter and sum-
mer.
Cool each lot of cream in cold wa
ter before adding to the general lot Of
cream
1t doesn't pay to keep too many
cows any more than it pays to farm
too much land.
Do not fill the churn over one-third
to one-half full. Give the cream room
for agitation.
Good butter must be properly pre-.
sented to the market 1t must not
only be good but look good.
Cream that is being ripened should
be thoroughly stirred several times be-
fore it is ready for churning.
Butter is usually worked enough
when the water has been removed so
that the butter will bend without
breaking.
High grade butter is the result of
intelligence-poor butter the result of
ignorance. The one is in demand
everywhere, the other goes begging
in the market.
Butter worth 40 cents per pound is
made from the same milk that grease
worth 20 cents a pound is made from,
as the other.
Dairy COWS must be treated in ac-
cordance with their Importance, as
factor of success, and the milk and
cream must be handled properly from
COW to churn, and from churn to mar
ket.

BALL GAME AT ARCO
A Hot Time and Then Some In the
Town of ArcO Caused by an
Innocent Ball Game

And it came to pass that on Sun
day, May 22nd, the Philistines enter
ed the city of Arco and engaged in
a great war of baseball with that city.
Yea! verify! 1t was sad affair.
The Philistiens wore overalls for
they were farmers. The Israelites
wore baseball suits for they were
baseball players, what?
The attendance was large. Me-
thinks there must have been nearly
ten thousand spectators or should
have been. Figuring that each and
every spectator paid two bits to see
the slaughter or should have, Arco
should be able to buy different color
ed suits for their warriors. 1t has
not been reported how much money
was taken in, but as / said before
the attendance was large-yes, very
large, and it might be said, too, they
were a sad lot of spectators, for they
came to witness ballgame not a
sprinting match. AS all farmers can
pitch hay and not be physically dis
tressed next day, and they can sprint
a little ways and not be physically
distressed next day but listen, they
cannot be expected to run all day.
What? Nay, nay, Pauline! But they
could pitch hay all day, yea, yea,
Claudia! And they can play ball, as
witnesseth the score following. Up
to and including the sixth inning II
Moore hay makers had crossed that
pretty IA dollar rubber plate, while
nearly OF ARGOS base players had
crossed the same rubber plate. said
nearly three, as matter of fact there
were two by actual count.
Then in the ninth inning, on ac-
count of that great hay pitcher
trickler, who caught for Moore, being
truck on the finger and having to
luit the game, Arco run in 6 tallies.
But laying all jokes aside Arco GER
tainly can entertain. Dinner and
supper were served to the visitors
and refreshments before and after
each meal. They're a fine lot of peo-
pie, every one will admit that.
Manager Williams and Captain
Beck are to be thanked for the en-
end of it.

stock and hold open the cleft for the
insertion of the scion, and grating
