ECONOMY OF DAIRYING.

Farm Products.

Provides Most Profitable Market For
Farm Products.
The dairy is the economic need of
the small farm. In just the proper
ton that land becomes more scarce
and land values advance the dairy be-
comes a necessity. The dairy COW is
the most economical producer of hui
man food. After all, the farmer is
only engaged in the production of food
for the human family, says the Kan
sas Farmer. Dairying supplies from
the small farm eheaply a highly
concentrated food product which al
ways has demand and which de-
mand is affected less by the fuctua-
lions of financial conditions and eli
matte conditions than any other in
dustry in which the farmer can en-
gage. The forage crops and grain
crops of the farm cannot be sold at
so great profit as when fed to the
dairy COW and that product sold in
the form of milk or cream for butter
or cheese making.
There are many instances in which
the small farmer with eighty acres Of
land or less, with herd of ten to fif-
teen good cows, is realizing a largea
cash income per year for period of
ten years than are the farmers with
three or four times as much land de-
voted exclusively to the production of
grains for sale.

Roosevelt would undoubtedly have the

The method Of getting up to cash val
uations that favored as a 1awmaker
was along the lines Of natural law, by
changing the basis of apportionment of
the states revenue against the counties

to a low value, thus removing all com
petition among assessors of the various
counties to reduce the assessed yalua-
tons 50 as to give their own county
fair deal with all the other counties of |
the state. And then by publishing the
tax lists Of every county and furnishing
each taxpayer with the list in his own
county, the economic tendency and NOR
al effect would gradually tend toward |
cash valuation.
I introduced measures at the last
session, and also two years before, that
would have accomplished this result,
but they did not become laws. So all |
governor Hawley has to work with is |
the law as he finds it and as the SUI
preme Court has decided it is.
Every man that believes in justice
and equality before the law, and that
the chief executive should show good
faith in its enforcement, will support

The intervening eighteen subdivi-

During the first centuries Of the Christian
church, Easter was celebrated on the same
day of the Jewish Passover, because Christ
rose from the dead on that day. In the early
days Of the church Easter was the favorite
time for performing miracle plays; priests be-
came actors, and the churches, theaters for
the time being. One Of the most popular OF
the mystery plays is based upon the cowardice
of Plate in condemning Jesus.
Three days after the death Of Christ" runs

ruler and hurled bitter reproaches at him for
his cowardice. Plate retired to the innermost

Still the voices Of the women reached him,

ocean, the sea and the rivers take part In the
great demonstration, and the word coward

From the legend springs curious custom
practiced in Hungary on Easter Monday. At
dawn the men of the village wait for the maid
ems Of their choice to appear; as each sees the
maiden Of his heart he runs after her, and
drags her, shrieking and protesting, to the
nearest fountain or well, where he proceeds to
drench her literally with water. Thoroughly
drenched, the maiden is supposed to pay for
the courtesy with kiss. Often she breaks
away from her tormentor, and there is a hot
and merry chase until she is captured OF
course, she is soon caught and is usually q
willing victim, for this is one Of the Magyar
betrothal customs, and an early marriage fol

not at all strange that the Franciscans at
Mount st. Sepulchre are enabled to present
particularly impressive services at Easter.
Moreover number Of the members Of the
community have resided for years ut a time
in the Holy Land and are familiar 3rom long
participation with every deail Of the Easter
services as conducted at the tomb of our Lord
in Jerusalem. This is the case with the pres
ent superior Of the community, Rev. Father
Bede Oldgeering, who is the celebrant of the
solemn high mass which is tho principal fea-
ture Of the Easter program.
1t Is doubtful If any church in America Is
embellished with more lavish floral decora-
ton than that in the Chapel Of the Holy Land
on Easter morning and equally notable is the
special music by the choir of male voices
made up Of members of the community with
one OF the brothers acting as organist. The
chapel at Mount st. Sepuchre, and which is
all too small to accommodate the throngs that
come hither on Easter, is In the shape of
fve-fold cross, the large cross forming the
main body Of the church and the small
crosses being represented by chapels This
cross, symbolic Of the five wounds Of our
Lord, appears again and again at Mount st.
Sepulchre and representation of it in Vene-
t1an mosaic forms the pavement Of the
church. The central aisle of the large cross
has, at the entrance of the church, a portico
which supports gallery, while at the other
end is the sanctuary. The whole interior
with its rows upon rows of columns and
arches and its significant white and yellow
decoration, is stately and majestic in the high
est degree and affords the best possible back
ground for the Easter decorations.
The whole arrangement of the interior con-
duces to focus attention upon the sanctuary
which is the main point Of attraction in the
church and especially so on Easter when it
