Supply Fodder Early to Calves.

Young dairy calves-and, indeed. all
calves-should be given good folders
early. 1t is important that these
should, be given to them early, so that
the proper distension of the paunch
may take place in due order. If It does
not the capacity to take food becomes
limited Even with calves of the beef
breeds the tendency is in the direction
of giving too little attention to this
matter. The free feeding of meal to
calves makes flesh in good form, but
it does not distend the stomach.

Sheen Shearinus,

Dip your sheep at least once year
and you will find it profitable.
Good lambs are never reared unless
they receive favorable start in life.
a sheep must produce a variety of
products If it's to be most profitable.
Mutton sheep give the best returns
when fed for that purpose when
young.
In order to realize the most for
wool there must be uniformity of
condition.
Sheep can stand almost any degree
of dry cold so long as their fleece is
not wet. 1t is necessary that sheep
have tight roof over their heads.

BIG ROADS IN TRAFFIC
AGREEMENT

San Francisco, Cal, Oct 24-The
traffic agreement recently concluded
between the Atchison, Topeka and
Santa Fe and the Western Pacific
railroads will come into operation to-
morrow. The new Arrangement gives
the Western Pacific an outlet into
southern California and territory now
reached by the Santa Fe, while it will
permit the latter to tap territory north
of Stockton and Nevada points, now
reached by the Western Pacific. One
of the important results of the agree
ment between the two roads will be to
place them in direct competition with
the Southern Pacific between northern
and southern Carolina and between
Nevada points and El Paso, Texas.

In 1880, on his return from his New
England progress. Washington lodged
at Taft's inn, at UXbridge, Mass.
where the domestic service-as at
many inns in the country-was per-
formed by the landlords daughters
Somewhat later Washington wrote to
Mr.. Taft:

Sir-Being informed that you have given
my name TO one of your sons and called
another after Mrs. Washington's family.

with the modest and innocent looks OF
your two daughters, Patty and Polly. l
do for these reasons send each of these
girls a piece of chlntz, and to Patty, who
bears the name of Mrs. Washington and
who waited upon us more than Polly did,
1 send suineas, with which she may
buy herself any little ornaments she may
want. or she may dispose of them In any
other manner more agreeable to herself.

Molsant and Grahame-White Attempt

Mile Breeze - Avlators Receive
Threatening Letter From Owner Of
Adjacent Property Who Objects to
Screens That viii Prevent View.
New York, Oct 24.-When the Off
cials OF the international aviation
meet declared that there was too
much wind for flights, the crowd of
5000 left Belmont park in disgust.
But stormier than the storm was
the feeling of the members OF the
French team, Leblanc and, Latham,
here to lift the Gordon Bennett in
ternational speed cup. Leblanc and
Latham vehemently confirmed earlier
Tumors that the international course
Is little to their liking and that they
probably will not compete at all.
There are too many buildings, trees,
wires, railroad tracks and other dam
gerous things along the route, say
Che Frenchmen, and they fear the
abruptness of the turn at the western
end of the course. Some alarm was
occasioned by the receipt at the
hangers of the following letter:
"As you probably are aware, the
promoters of the aviation meet at
Belmont park are provoking the an
tagonism of owners of adjoining
property and properties over which
they have laid out the course over
which you are invited to fly by erect
ing high canvas screens designed to
block the view of your fights by
Baid owners or lessees from said
properties.
Now this Is to notify you that
they are all amply supplied with
means, II these obstructions are not
removed, TO block your flights, If at
tempted at any but very consider
able elevation over the properties,
and that / will be regretfnlly com
PEELED by legitimate and scientific
means to do so unless you can pre-
vail upon your friends to abandon
these preparations to block our view
OF your aerial gyrations.
WILLIAM ELLISON"
While officials of the meet seemed
20 regard the letter lightly, It is be-
lieved by some that the complainants
intend to shoot up the aeroplanes
passing over their properties.
