ADD sKIM-MILK SLOWLY

The increase of the skim-milk
should be gradual until the calf is
about seven weeks old, when it should
be receiving only skim-milk The
feeder must be governed by the size
of the calf and its growth, but the
average calf shonld receive about
eight quarts daily when it is eight
weeks old. When the calf is fed
twice a day it will drink more milk
than is needed, if it has a chance.
If the calf is born in the late fall or
winter it shonld have access to bright
alfalfa or clover hay. The stall should
be kept clean Plenty of clean straw
should be used for bedding. The calf
should have access to a lot large
enough for exercise and sunshine
If the calf is born late in the
spring it should have access to a
good pasture. Good, cool water
should be supplied. Alfalfa or clover
makes excellent pasture for young
calves--The Kansas Industrialist

HOW TO REAR A CALF
Some Good Advice ON This Important
Subject

Did you ever rear a calf? After
it has run with the s COW long
enough to have consumed the first
milk, which takes two or three days,
it is best to wean it and feed it by
hand.
In teaching the calf to drink, place
two fingers in its mouth and at the
proper moment withdraw them and
put its head into the bucket of milk.
After a few lessons the calf will soon
learn to drink.
1t should be fed whole milk for
about four weeks before you add any
grain or Skim-milk. The milk should
be fed to the calf warm; that is, with
the animal heat still in it.
The calf should be fed about four
quarts of whole milk day at first.
After about three weeks one quart of
SKINNED milk may be added This
skinned milk should be warmed
About teaspoonful of oil meal
should be added to the milk
USE CARE IN FEEDING
Care should be taken that the calf
is not fed warm milk one time and
cold milk the next, for this is almost
sure to produce the scours. in
case the calf does get the scours it
should be fed ground dried blood, in
doses of teaspoonful to feed, I'M
til the trouble has stopped. The
dried blood is sold at most feed stores.
In case it cannot be obtained a table
spoonful of common salt will be found
very effective.
Teach the calf to eat grain after it
is four or five weeks old. Let it go
without one feed of milk, so it will be
hungry, and place a few grains in the
calf's mouth. If you hold up its
head it soon learns to chew the grain.
Corn should be placed in box so
that the calf can reach it. All the
corn that the calf will eat up clean
should be fed. In case more corn is
fed than the calf will consume the
box or trough should be cleaned be-
fore the next feed. Calves will not
eat so much if there is any feed left
over.

MADE RAILROAD HAUL THEM.
Tired of Repeated Changes. Three
Passengers Win Their Rights.

Monticello, y. Y.-When a train on
the Ontario & Western railroad left
Weehawken it contained more than
dozen cars filled with passengers.
Seated in the last car were three in
nocent looking New Workers. AS the
train advanced on its journey and pas
sengers alighted at the different re-
sorts the remaining passengers would
be moved forward and the rear car
left on a siding When Livingston
Manor was reached the three New
Workers had been hustled forward no
less than half dozen times, and their
patience and good humor were eX-
hausted.
Change cars here and take the
train on the siding for all points fur
ther west" announced the conduc-
tor. The trio refused to move. I'VE
have walked more than two-thirds
the distance to this point and we are
going to hold our seats until this COM
pany delivers us at our destination"
they said "When we wish to go out
after Weston's record we won't buy
a railroad ticket for the privilege"
An engine was attached to the car
in which the three New Workers sat
enthroned and a special trip made to
Roscoe.

Stockton, Cal.-The tragis death of
Carlo Besagno, whose team ran away

and breaking his neck, calls to mind
the spectacular appearance he made
at the funeral of c. Gasoline in this
city about ten years ago.
Besagno awoke one fine day to
learn that his wife had eloped with
Gasoline. If Besagno grieved he did
not give any outward sign of it, and
took no steps to get back his erring
spouse or revenge the desecration of
his home. He just waited until cir
cumstances should furnish the psy-
Geological moment when he could
square accounts. 1t came with the
death of Casseline two years later.
Bosagno engaged an open hack and
four white horses and appeared in the
funeral procession with n number of
his friends. He wore a plug hat
jaunuly topping his smiling features
and bright flowers appeared in his
Button hole. Besagno ana his friends
made th0 occasion gay one. and
while the woman mourned the death
of the man she loved, Bcsagno found
cause for merriment
To add to the gaiety of the novel re-
Vrugr. Rosagno played an accorde-

The story became public through
Mr. Kubel showing the letters. While
he admitted the truth of the story
to the correspondents, he would not
talk for publication until recently. The
story reached the Washington news
papers, and one OF them secured Laf-

just as Kubel had done. The con-
gresham again succeeded in avoiding
immediate exposure by pleading It
was his first offense and protesting
his high regard for women.

LAFFERTY STILL
ANNOYING WOMEN
PICKS SCHOOL GIRLS
AS INTENDED VICTIMS
rails I'm Love With Young Ladies'
Photographs and Bcgs for Meetings
I'm Letters-Latest Is Daughter OF
Washington Widow.

Portland's congressman, A. w. I.af-
ferty, is again in range of the spot
light as the result of new charge that
he is guilty of annoying women with
whom he has no acquaintance, says
the Journal. The latest episode comes
in story from Washington which in
dicates that the congressman has not
been giving undivided attention to his
official duties.
The substance Of the story printed
in an afternoon newspaper yesterday
has been known to a number of per-
sons in Portland for some time, and
has been common knowledge to the
newspaper correspondents in Wash
ington. 1t was also given publicly by
The Spectator about two weeks ago.
Wrote TO School Girl.
The Washington dispatch, telling Of
the congressman's writing to a Wash
ington high school girl after seeing
her portrait in a newspaper, seeking
to arrange a meeting with her, has
almost exact parallel in the case of a
Portland girl to whom his attention
was attracted before he went TO
Washington.
In this case. as the story runs, the
girls picture appeared among those
graduating at local high school. She
received a letter from Lafferty, en-
closing the picture. in which he pass
ed her compliment and said he
would like to meet her. His letter re-
mained unanswered. and he then had
the temerity to call the girl over the
telephone. The girl called her moth
er and Lafferty dropped out. The
mother of the girl talked over the
matter with some of her friends, but
decided to do nothing to expose her
daughter to publicity The girls
mother is a widow.
Admits Authorship.
According to the story from Wash
'ngton, Lafferty's attention was
drawn to a high school girl, Miss Flor
ence Kubel, 10 years of age, in the
same way. He is said to have cut her
picture from the paper. pasted it on
a piece of his official stationery, and
scrawled under it, "This looks good
TO me-" He sent this delicate COM
pliment in letter to the girl. In the
letter he expressed the hope that
meeting might be arranged and the
further hope that she would use tick
cts for the family gallery in the house
of representatives, which he also en-
closed. He added the information
that he is a bachelor, SO years of age,
with no family.
Miss Kubel's father, S. J. Kubel, is
chief clerk of the bureau of geologi-
cal survey. In a rage he went to
Lafferty's office to square the account.
1t is narrated that when confronted
with the letter, Lafferty at first de-
MED all knowledge of it. and sought
to throw blame upon one Of his
clerks
Begs for Leniency.
Later he admitted the authorship
and begged for leniency, saying it was
his first offense and he held the high
est respect for womanhood. He
wrote letters of apology to both faith
er and daughter. and promised he
would never molest her. Immediately
afterward he left Washington for
months vacation in Canada.
