Importance. Next the feeding should
be considered. The animal should be
supplied with rations that are suitable
for the production Of an abundance of
milk and mt the same time will keep
them in perfect health, without which
they cannot produce good milk nor a
profitable quantity of it. The third
consideration is the management or
the cows. They should be handled
quietly and kindly; otherwise they will
not return profit. Much depends on
the character of the man in charge OF
the herd.
All these three considerations must
be we'll looked to, and when the cows
are cared for in this way they will, Ii
they are the right kind, pay back their

CROP CONDITIONS ON

F. r. Stevens, the agriculturist of
the Lehigh Valley railroad, issues
the following bulletin in regard to
the condition of crops in the terri
tory traversed by that line;
Wheat, oats and barley, in gen
eral, have been harvested. Tho
yield is reported as unusually large.
One cas- was brought to my atten-
ton of thirty-six acres of wheat
which average on %threshing fifty
bushels to the acre.
"The hay crop, especially on new
meadows, has been unusually large.
Apples will show a fair sized
crop, with quality excellent. More
injury has resulted from spraying
than in many years past.
Cabbage has been injured some
by louise, but Ia growing now fairly
well. Acreage in general not quite
as large as last year.
Corn has not recovered entirely
from the unreasonable weather in
the spring and bids fair In general
to be a short crop, although a late
fall may materially help this condi-
ton.
Peaches show a large crop of ex-
cellent fruit"

Special to the EVENING NEWS.
Trenton, Aug. 16:-According to
his own statement, William Harri-

received 2,349 letters and kilograms
from friends urging him to enter
the contest for the democratic nom
nation for governor. He has yield
ed to these appeals and will be a
candidate, standing as an outspoken
opponent to the domination Of the
democratic organization by former
United States Senator James Smith,
who is doing his best to nominate

Sheriff Harrigan, Familiarity known

follows:

FEAR SECOND HEM

Every other contingency conceivable
to the alert surgical mind has been
provided for. The mayor has received
injections of antitoxin to ward off te-
tanus, the bullet has been viewed as
it lies embedded In bony tissue in the
roof Of the pharynx, the wound has
been dressed and ascepticized and the
mayors blood tested twice a day for
the germs of ~septicaemia, or blood
poisoning. OF course, such precautions
as may be have been taken to guard
against a secondary hemorrhage, but
wholly to guard against that is impos-
sible.
That is why there is always at least
one ablebodied doctor on duty with
the mayor night and day. II a secon-
dairy hemorrhage were to come the
doctor In the would simply have
to stanch the flow of blood with his
fingers for a moment or two until
ligatures could be applied.
But Rufus Gaynor, son of the mayor,
has no fear that there will be a sec
ondary hemorrhage resulting from the
wound inflicted by James J. Gallagher,

'"Ten days is a long time In the esti-
mate when father will be allowed by

Special to the EVENING NEWS.

Special to the EVENING NEWS.
Trenton, Aug. 16:-"There is not
a word of truth in it," said former
Governor E. c. Stokes yesterday af-
ternoon in an emphatic manner when
shown a statement printed in a Cam
den newspaper to the effect that he
and former Governor Franklin Muir
ply had a conference early last week
concerning the United States sena-
torship, following which Mr.. Murphy
issued his challenge to John Kean
and David Baird to submit their SEN
atorial candidates. to a vote of the
republicans of the state through the
direct primary system.
Mr.. Stokes said that he was not
making deals with the other aspir-
ants for the senatorship. He reiter-
ated that from the very outset he
had intended submitting his candi-
dacy to a vote of the people and to
stand or fall by the result of the
primary vote.
Mr.. Stokes said that he would not
file his petitions with the secretary
of state until the latter part of this
week, although at present he has
petitions in hand with more than a
thousand signatures attached, as re-
quired by law to secure the printing

date on the official primary ballots.
Frank Transue, chief clerk of the
secretary of states office, today stat
ed that the petitions for United
States senatorial candidates would
be received up to and including
August "a.
In addition to bringing out James
e. MARITIME, of Plainfield, as a candi-
date for the United States senate,
through the direct primaries, the
democrats are likely to have another
aspirant submit himself to a popular
vote in the person of Thomas H.
Birch, of Burlington. Last spring
Mr.. Birch's name was considerably
discussed as a possible candidate for
governor, but he dropped out of the
race before his boom became formid-
able.
Mr.. Birch is a business associate
Of his father, James H. Birch, In a
large carriage factory operated in
Burlington city. He ia about forty
years of age and has been active In
democratic politics in South Jersey
for fifteen years. He was a candi-
date for presidential elector on the
democratic ticket in 1900. He is a
personal friend Of William ]. Bryan

open a safe In the post office early
Sunday morning a thief, whose iden-
tity is suspected, secured and made
away with $1,000 in stamps and
about $50 In cash. Residents in the
vicinity Of the post office heard the

loss was not discovered, however,
until Postmistress Journee entered
the office yesterday morning. There
she found the safe door partly blown
from its hinges. Papers and bundles
were scattered about the floor and a
search revealed that about $1,050
had been stolen.
The police Of Jamesburg and
other surrounding towns, as we'll as
the federal authorities, have been
notified and the supposed thief is
being searched for. 1t is believed
that he is a former local character

fish is thisf" he once asked his hostess
where he was dining. whiting she
replied. 1.-The meanest fish there is,"
he remarked, quite unconscious that he
could have wounded any ones feel

HAPPENINGS AT THE

ST. PAUL IS
PLAN N FOR
A BIG CROWD

st. Paul, Mimi, Aug. 16:-St.
Paul is going ahead with her ar
rangements to handle her guests
during conservation week Just the
same as If there was no ~dissension
among the governors.
To the business men and citizens
who have subscribed their money
for the expenses of entertainment 1t
is the National Conservation Con-
gress that is coming to the city; not
a Pinchot congress; not an anti-al-
linger meeting; not q Taft confer
ence nor a Roosevelt convention. All
will be welcome and the people Of
this city will guarantee fair play to
everybody.
1t is believed In this city that the
misunderstanding which has result
ed in a calling Of western governors
for a conference in Salt Lake will re-
suit benefcially for the congress. 1t
is believed it will insure fuller dis
cussion of the great questions in
volved in the conservation subject.
Information received here is to the
effect that the western governors In
tend to come to the St. Paul meet
ings despite any action that may be
taken in the Salt Lake conference.
The following telegram received
from Governor B. B. Brooks. of Wy
oming, is typical of others that have
reached the offices Of Secretary
Ship:
"In order to bring about united
action by western governors, If the

ton and will attend conference Of

participate in its deliberations"
These kilograms were pleasing to
the congress officers who are here
and the members OF the local board
who were anxious that they be pub
lished to show that there really Is no
intention on the part Of the western
governors to oppose the st. Paul CON
gress, but on the other hand, the

The Usaass of War,

War is necessarily bad enough IN
der any circumstances, but its laws
and usages are steadily changing for
the better. In very early times all pris-
ners were ruthlessly put to the sword
or reduced to slavery, and as for the
property rights of the belligerents they
did not exist. In the famous pandicts
Of Justinian 1t Is stated without the
least equivocation that an enemy's
property Of every description Is res
nulltus chat is to say, is without an
owner) and that occupancy, by which
the captor makes 1t his own. is an In
%stitution of natural law. If things were
as bad as that so late as the time of

Womsn's Time Schedules.

Few women speak of a train starting
slightly off the even hour, as the 1902
train, for example, or the 3:12. Three

go hunting for a 8 o'clock train by
feminine directions when 1t is 8 3:12
train. For some women "3' will dc
for the 2:54 train; it's a enough.
Then the man following feminine d.
rections, unless he Is on his guard
against these pitfalls, is lost. Prob
ably if it weren't for his business train
ing, which teaches a man that 3:02 is
not 8, not 3:01, not 3:011a, not 3:01A,
