THE FOX YTRAMP.
TR,--'i-oror uLaya

I. a fellow, who is walking around the
word from? Boston and who had COM
pieted about 1850 of his 1880 miles,
was at Chicago recently and lectured
there. and probably got quite a lift"
Strange that there are towns here and
there in the land that have not gotten
TO their limit, SO far as this particular
graft is concerned. The country seems
to te full of fellows who are walking
TO some point or other on a wager. and
with the agreemen, that they shall
take no money with them. but shall
live or the country. And SO they have
something to sell. and they extort
money from al, sorts of gullble people
under some pretext or other. Ard the
same persons. who will turn hungry
tramp from their doors and who will
telephone the police to have that tramp
arrested will become interested in the
tramp who cooks up some such tele
and VINO tries to work his victims for
a larger sum. whereas the poor tramp,
who Is rot Ingenious enough to rig
himself up as a tourist who is making
a. certain distance in a certain time
under an enormous bet. is usually con-
tent to get a handout or q nickel and is
glad if the dog is not set upon him.
CONCRETE PAVING PEACEMAKER
Davenport Democrat
Demonstration Of the fac: that con-
crete makes an excellent pavement
for alleys ana even for streets has
opened the way for the settlement Of
disputes over paving in q number OF
neighborhoods IN this city. In tTo In
stances at least. this fall. where It
was desired TO pave small stretches
Of an alley. the neighbors have ad-
justed their differences OF opinion.
got bids from a contractor based on
city specifications, and have applied
to the city for permission to go ahead
With the improvement. In this way,
they saved some Of the money usually
spent in preliminary advertising. and
the cost being comparatively light.
IL easy to adjust the burden among
the interested property owners in pro-
portion to their admitted benefits.
One may own an automobile and
want the paving badly. and another
may have little use for II. Cutting
the former cost OF paving nearly in
two, the new material would aiioT"
the auto owner to pay the major part
Of the bill without feeling 1t. Con-
crete seems to be the great neaghoor-
hood peacemaker.

Commissioner Resigns.

Sam II. Butler who was appointed
United States commissioner here
shortly after statehood concluded that
he had held down that lucrative posi-

pathos and tears. and even the urgent

less to make him reconsider his move

Plenty Of Forage Crown.

W. c. Downing. who was here to-
day from Cornish. says that the
drouth has demonstrated to the far
mers in his section of the STATE that
they can raise a forage crop with
but small amount of moisture and
to that extent the drouth has been
beneficial in teaching that lesson.
Necessity forced the farmers TO plant
large acreage in kaffir corn. milo
maize. cane, peas and other quick
maturing forage crops and the farm
ers have rs much feed stuff this wear
as they ever have. Cotton, he says,
is very poor in much of Jefferson

family TO Ardmore and he will move

the depth to which the meeting has
gone-and it is not a mans revival,
but Gods.
The men have become so aroused
that they are meeting with their diff
ferent pastors at the churches before
services to talk and pray.
The campaign of personal work that
is now on in Ardmore is the talk of
the town. and number of the prom
inent men that have been reached is
;ery encouraging. The prospects fot
the rest of the week is very hopeful.
The Monday night service at the
large tabernacle was well attended
The interest is good. Seven We're
converted and quite a number request
&c prayer.
Rev. J. W. Lee preached on the

The Good Dairy Cow,

The dairy cow possesses long face,
thin, slender neck, sharp, projecting
shoulder, according to the Stockman
and Farmer. She is not very wide in
the chest, but her capacity Of chest is
due to her depth, which is greater in
proportion to her size than you will find
In the beef animal. She possesses large
barrel, which indicates a good capacity
for digesting her food. Her depth here
should exceed her depth in any other
portion of the body. A dairy COW
should have a good width at the hips
Her thighs should be lean and free from
muscling. She should be open between
her thighs. Much attention should be
given the udder of the dairy cow-s
large udder does not indicate that it Is q
good one. They are often very feshy
good udder should be elastic and phi
able, and shows many folds when milk
ed out. The tssts should be placed
equal distance apart, which Is generally
the case II the udder is Symmetrical
and we'll proportioned. Large mill
veins are good indications. The vein,
do not carry milk, a. many think, bu
carry the blood from the udder to tn,
body, and the more blood that passe,
through the udder the more milk ther,
10 produced, because the milk 10 pro
duced from the blood. A good dair,
cow possesses . rather thin, pliable
elastic skin. A coarse, harsh handling
skin 10 poor indication. When cow
possess these qualities Of skin they ar
rarely good producers.
