BACK UP YOUR NOISE.
Opportunity to Do Good Business
Never Better Than at Present.

Opportunity to Do Good Business
Never Better Than at Present.
Inc man who is satisfied with things
as they are never makes them better.
one man says you have succeeded
because you have located at a certain
place at the right time. Another says
you nave succeeded because you have
mad the opportunity. Abraham Lincoln
said: Don't whine about the lack of
opportunity. There are opportunities
for every one who is able TO convince
the world by his industry that he is
worthy of success
There has never been time when
there was not an opportunity for every
man who was willing to take advan-
tage Of it, and the opportunity of do
ing good business never was better
than at the present time, said ]. G..
Cornell in a convention speech. The
thing to do is to take advantage of
this opportunity and make every ef-
fort in getting every dollars worth of
business that you can at a profit.
Josh Billings says he "admires q
rooster for two things-one is the crow
that is in him and the other the spurs
that he has on him to back up his
crow" This can be applied to the man.
We admire him for the noise he can
make if he is capable and has the busi-
ness ability and personality to back
up & noise.-Paint, Oil and Drug Re-

Post Siqns Aaainst Dumping.

AS a preliminary step to a campaign
against dumping Of trash about Dallas,
Tex, twenty-five signs were ordered
painted to be posted up at places where
complaint of dumping is being made.
Members Of the board Of commission
ers suggested that a few prosecutions
might put an end to the matter, but
past experience showed it difficult to
secure a conviction. as the offenders
secured dismissal on the plea that they
did not know the dumping was pro-
hibited. The signs will bear a warning

PRINTS OF CHEESE.
Novel and Attractive Form For Mar.
keting Dairy Products.


E. II. Harrington of the Wisconsin
experiment station has recently re-
ported results Of experiments on the
manufacture of cheese in small sizes,
the form chosen being suggested by
the pound prints of butter which have
proved so successful.
The cheddar cheese experimental
with was made by the usual process.
the only modification being in the
pressing and in the follower used
in the press. The curd was placed
in a mold or hoop of rectangular
shape, the bottom or follower of
which was carved board divided into
a number of sections, each Of which
corresponded to half pound print Of
cheese. Two sections would, of course,
represent a pound. The form Of the
prints is determined by the carving
of the board, which may be of any
size to suit any particular market.
The sections can be readily cut apart
when sold by the retailer. The cheeses
averaged very nearly fifteen pounds

SiIaue For Horses,

1t seems probable that deaths report
ed from feeding silage to horses have
generally, if not always. been caused
by moldy silage. Those who have had
encouraging results with it have al
ways fed good sweet silage made from
fairly mature corn. In some of the
fatal cases it is known that the silage
contained some mold. The trouble is
that it is next to impossible to be GER
tain that an occasional spot of mold
does not get into the silage which is
fed. as small moldy places often occur
in the silage even in the center of the
silo and are frequent near the edges.
Horses are particularly subject to the
baneful effects of any deleterious sub
stance ip the feed. and their high val
ueS prompt caution.

RAISING DIARY COWS.
FRONT In Producing Well Bred Cows
For the Market

FRONT In Producing Well Bred Cows
For the Market.
The high prices which prevail for
first class dairy COWS ought to induce
more farmers to keep registered bulls
and to make more thorough study of
the business of successful calf and
heifer raising, says Hoard's Dairyman.
1t is surprising how few farmers there
are who are really good calf raisers.
The final value of good COW depends
in q great measure upon how we'll she
has been raised from calfhood to ma
ternity.
We have noticed that four things
contribute very greatly to success in
this particular-frst, good dairy blood
In the sire; second, clean, dry quarters,
frequently disinfected third, plenty of
sweet skimmilk fed in pals kept we'll
scalded; fourth, good, we'll cured al
falfa hay after the calf is three to
four months old and from that time
on. A heifer given alfalfa hay will
make decidedly better growth and
size on that account.
Such raising. feed and care seem to
have stimulating effect on the ma
ternal organs, and the heifer makes a
better COW on that account. OF course
the dairy breeding is the foundation.
1t is Of no use to try to make a good
cow out of heifer that has no such
tendency in her. But it is true, and
often lamentably true. that the best
bred heifer in the world can be utterly
spoiled by stupid, unskillful handling
and feeding in the first two years of
her life.
The business of producing well bred
first class dairy cows is a profitable
one. After two years of age the COW
has a double line of profit in the milk
she yields and in her progeny. All
that is needed on the part of the
farmer is an intelligent understanding
of what it means to produce a good
COW.

COSTS MONEY TO BUILD TOWN
But Spending II This Way Creates
Wealth, Says Mayor.


In an address delivered some months
ago before the Denver chamber Of
commerce Mayor Speer, an enthusiast
on town improvement, said:
''The real good things in life do not
come without effort. 1t costs money to
build a town, but money wisely spent
for that purpose is a wealth creator;
it pays higher rate of interest than
any other investment There is a diff
ference between the hardships of the
plains and the comforts of a well
governed town. You would not be
without these conveniences for many
times their cost The people Of Den
YER pay in taxes to conduct their city
government about cents each per
day This amount is so distributed
that over three-fourths of our popula-
ton pay an average Of less than
cent per day. Few stop to consider the
protection, amusements and comforts
they receive in return for this pay.

Milk Room Requirements.

The milk house or milk room should
be separate from the barn, so that no
odors from the barn will penetrate it.
It need not be expensive, but should be
built so that sunlight and ventilation
are not obstructed. 1t should be pro-
vided with plenty Of cold water and
also with some method Of providing
hot water or steam for cleaning the
utensils. 1t should have smooth walls
and ceilings, such as can easily be
kept clean. The milk house should not
be used as general stOreroom.

Sweeping Streets at Night Best.

The street sweepers in Gadsden, Ala,
are now sent out at night instead of
in the daytime. and in the early morn
ing wagons haul away the dirt which
has been swept into the cutters. The
sweeping of the streets at night is a
big improvement over the sweeping
in the daytime. as it does away with
the annoyance from the dust The
night atmosphere is damp. and the
dust does not rise extensively.

Irregular Milk Flow.

Some COWS will start out with big
flow of milk and then dry up in four
or five months. Others will milk the
year round. Weighing every milking
and testing the milk from each cow
once a month or oftener will not only
furnish the dairy farmer with the
facts that are necessary in his busi-
ness, but will lead to an Investigation
of the causes of irregularity in milk
flow as well as to better care of the

All Dairy Breeds Good.

. The battle of the dairy breeds
still goes on, but the views re-
. garding the quality of the breeds
and their adaptations are becom-
! ing more sane. 1t is now COM
ing to be more and more recog-
. nized that there is a place for
all the breeds of dairy cows and
! that that place is not quite the
same for each. Thus the Ayr
. shire does particularly well in
climates a little stern. The Hol-
: stems do well where much milk
is wanted. So Of the Others
! Each will best fill niche that is
a little different from that filled

Stick to Your Last.

The merchant who has been trained
all his business life in dry goods is not
likely to be great winner in the gro
cery line. though the principles of
salesmanship may be thoroughly mas
tered by him. 1t requires exceptional
ability for man to adapt himself to
one line of work after be has spent
years in some other line.

GUlDEPOSTS ON THE ROAD
TO BUSINESS SUCCESS.

If you cannot make your for.
tune in the same place and in
the same way some other man
has, make it in a new place and
new way.
The nail of a good precept al
ways needs the hammer Of prac-
tice to drive it in.
Minutes are to hours what the
pennies are to dollars-and be
wins who saves both.
1t is not the position a man
fills SO much as the way he fills
it that stamps upon him the
mark Of his quality.
1t is all a building process
the rock is built of atoms, the
tree is built of cells. the house Is
built Of bricks. success is built
of conquered details

perth a single line Is surely a
winner. He can always find

Professor Frear, of the Colo
RADIO Agricultural College, de.
clares that "a quantity of water
retained by cultivation is of
far greater value even where
water is plentiful than the
same amount applied to the
soil. One of the great princi.
pies of dry farming is to keep
a good mulch on the soil all
the time to prevent loss Of
water by evaporation"
