1t never pays to be dairyman BY
accident. Have a purpose.
A good milker never brings his hands
in contact with the milk.
The farmer can produce clean milk,
but it means added expense
The demand for dairy products Is I'M
limited and always on the increase.
Remember, even the best dairy COW
cannot make good returns without
plenty Of good feed
A pail Of milk standing in a foul
stable for ten minutes win absorb
enough bad odors to spoil it.

States That fraeterminate Law aiias
Proved Success, and Gives Some
interesting Statistics.

Des Moines, Dec. 10.-The Hrst re.
port OF the State Board OF Parole TO
be filed since the board came into
being July /, 1907 shows that of the
men who were paroled between that
time and June 80, 1910, more men
sentenced under the old determinate
sentence law violated their paroles
than men sentenced under the new
indetermi:- ate sentence law, thus
proving that the new law has great.
er influence for real reformation OF
prisoners.
The report shows that from the
time the board was created up till
last June that 221 men prisoners
were paroled Of which 131 were in
determinate sentence men. OF the
number paroled 1913 are now actively
reporting and 81 have received their
final discharges. OF the men who
violated their paroles 10 per cent
were indeterminate sentence men.
The report deals with men who
were not paroled until after July /,
1908, because of the provision of the
indeterminate law which provides
that prisoners must have served al
least eleven months before they can
be heard before the parole board. -,
In their report the members of the
board state that three things should
govern In the punishment of crimi'
mails and in determining the time
which they shall serve under the in
determinate sentence law. THESE
things are the punihsment Of the Of
fender, the deterrent effect Of bis
sentence upon others who may be
criminally inclined and final consid.
Grafton for the reformation of the
prisoner himself.
The report makes but one recon.
mendation, namely, that the board be
not compelled to report its expense
items for postage and printing. They
say it is impossible to accurately
guage this.

To Ask State for Money.


Poultry fanciers of Iowa will try
to get an appropriation of $4,000 an
nually from the state to be used for
prizes at the annual poultry show held
in Des Moines. The chicken men of
the state have felt the need of such
an appropriation keenly. Iowa with
the greatest number of organizations
devoted to poultry raising of any
state in the union, is yet one of the
few that does not give financial en-
couragement to the state poultry
show.
The Iowa state poultry and dog
show to be held in the Coliseum the
week of Jan. will have as many en-
tries of as high a class as any state
show. Heretofore, the association
has tried to pay for the prizes out OF
the proceeds of the show. This year
an effort will be made to interest the
legislature in their project. 1t Is un-
derstood that Governor Carroll is in
sympathy with this movement, as he
is an enthusiastic poultry fancier.
