Dairy Industry Of the United States

According to the last year book
OF the Department of Agriculture
there are 81, ,72O, 900 milch COWS in
the United States. and these are
worth $702, ,945, 900. The magni-
tude of the industry can perhaps
be best understood when it is con-
sidered that these COWS produce
yearly about 81, 900. 900, 900 worth
of dairy products.
There is no other branch of
diversified agriculture so important
TO the progress of q community.
The fertility of the soil can best
be maintained by the liberal use of
bsrnyard manure and the dairy
here not only makes this possible,
but dairying is also more remuner-
alive than other branches of farm
ing when properly carried on.
Dairying has made wonderful
progress since the advent of the
modern creamery and the consumer
OF butter has not only been bene-
lifted by being furnished more
wholesome and palstable article of
food, but the wife in the farm home
has been relieved of the drudgery
incident to making butter on the
farm. Where formerly the cream
was ripened and churned into
butter under conditions not con-
ducive to fine quality in the finished
product and in the majority of
cases by unskilled hands, now the
most of milk or cream is delivered
to = modern creamery where con-
ditions are suited to the purpose
of making butter. and the result
has been a wonderful Improvement
in the quality of our dairy pro-
ducts. AS the quality has i'm
proved consumption has increased
and the progress of dsirying has
been remarkable during the past
decade.
The perpetuity of the country's
greatness depends upon increasing
the production of farm products
from year to year, q result which
not only furnishes our people with
food but maintains the prosperity
of our farming communities. In
crease in production can only come
through improved methods of
Agricultural and soil improvement.
When it is considered that the
dairy cow is the foundation for
soil improvement and farming
prosperity, her Importance is best
understood, and interest in her
should not be confined TO her
owner. She is an important fac
tor in the development and pros
perity of our country.

Intempersnce is curse always
and everywhere. 1t never rules
over a happy home. II robs homNs
Of peace and personal character of
strength; it fills prisons and aims
houses and insane asylums; it
causes heavy taxation of hard
working people 10 repair its dam
ages; it destroys love and paralyzes
ambition and roots out high ideas;
il seeks to drag humanity back TO
dark ages of barbarism; and withal
It eliminates its miserable power
BY bringing blindness to people,
even good people sometimes, so
that they cannot see or understand
or comprehend its awful debasing
ruin. 1t throws . veil over its
ravages which makes them appear
harmless and almost attractive,
and allures men into side issues so
that they cannot correctly measure
the cost and the tendency of its
various powers.
II we were to wake up some
morning after = hundred years
sleep, and find all new, prscticing
all forms of Temperance, we should
probably think we had gotten into
another and better world. Itwould
be little like this world of 1910.
For here society is SCARED and
diseased, and wears weeping eyes
and heavy heart, all because of
intemperancer of vatrious sorts.
Danish intemperance-mind you,
not merely liquor drinking, but all
intemperance-and the jails will
20, the almhouses will disappear,
and in their wake would follow
most of the hospitable; while wars
would cease and poverty and
suffering would become practically
unknown Yes. the practice of
temperance on the part of every
individual would transform the
whole earth. We of this glorious
land must lead the world in
morality as well as in other things.
There must be . high standard.
For not only is a temperate nation
more powerful in commerce; it is
also more powerful in religion and
missionary activity. Think of the
money coming from the tax on
drink-thirty nine, nearly forty
millions of dollars. More than all
the Christion nations together have
spent on missions. If we could
curtail the drink bill, we could
increase the missionary expendi-
ture. There is no question but
that the growing prosperity of =
people advances on all good causes.
In the United Statesin 1907, there
were consumed 1859. .0S1, 900 gal
Ions of liquor, spirits, and beer, or
about l9t gallons to 8 person,
including women and children.
In 1906 the tax on drink was
$S9, $685. 900, or 80 per cent of the
whole national revenue. Those
are startling figures, and mark,
they do not include the amount or
value of liquor exported. And
while the United States has the
lowest per capital consumption of
alcohol of any great nation. there
Is certainly room forimprovement.

CHARLEY JOHNSONS CHICK
EN- COOP.

The man that gets away with Char
ley johnson chickens must be good
one. Charley lives in the West End
and has one of the incest aocks Of
feathered fowls that ever graced hen
roost, says the Birmingham Age-Her.
aid.
Charley had peculiar insight and
has discovered the weakness Of his
colored brethren for good piece Of
chicken. He is also aware that they
sometimes go SO far as to acquire the
fowls in a very unmannerly way. With
the idea in view Of protecting his birds
from the long arms of his rude and
chicken-hungry brothers Charley has
erected chicken coop that is unique
in the extreme.
He placed large store box in the
boughs of a tree about twenty feet
from the ground and securely fastened
it. Leading up this, from the ground,
there is a weak little ladder. just
strong enough to bear the weight of a
fowl, but which will not carry the
weight OF the smallest boy.
But the hen house in the top of the
tree was only the beginning of Char
ley's strategy. He made circular
barbed wire fence around the foot of
the tree. The fence is woven very
