Boone, Ia, June 2S.-Negro
miners of Ogden, numbering 161
who are suirg John P. White, In
ternational President; W, H. Rog-
ers, Iowa President of the United
Mine Workers of America, and
other mine officials, for more than
81, 100000, began presenting their
case to Judge Wright here today.
The Negroes claim they were i'm
ported into Ogden under misrepre-
sentations, and ask damages in the
sum of $4,000 each. The suit
grows out of labor troubles a year
ago when white miners, learning
that the strike was costing the
union 5000 day resumed their
work, and later resigned in small
numbers. The Negroes were i'm
ported to fill their places, but were
refused admission to the union.
They also ask that they be per-
mitted to form a union of their
own.

The Colorado statesman., 1911-07-08

AS far as the actual haldships
they have to endure or the oppor-
tunities open to them, the condi-.
ton of the Negro in these cities
does not compare, in my opinion,
with that of the masses of the
Italiars in these southern Italian
cities.
There is this difference also; the
majority of the Negroes in the
large cities of the South and North
in the United States are from the
country. They have been accus-
toned to range and wander in
country where life was loose and
simple and existence hardly a
problem. They have not been ac-
customed to either the comforts or
the hardshids of complex city life.
In the case of the Italians life in
the crowded, narrow streets, in the
unsanitary intimacy and confusion
in which men, goats, and cattle
here mingle, have become the fixed
habit of centuries.
1t is not an unusual thing, for
instance. to find COW or a mule
living in close proximity, if not in
the same room, with the rest of the
family, and, in spite of the skill
and artistic taste which show
themselves everywhere in the con-
struction and decoration of the
buildings, the dirt and disorder i'll
which the people live in these
buildings are beyond description.
Frequently in passing through the
streets of these southern cities one
meets herd of goats wandering
placidly along over the stone
pavements nibbling here and there
in the cutters or holding up in
front of house to be milhed.
Even where the city government
has made the effort to widen and
improve the streets, let in the air
and sunlight, and maintain sani-
tary conditions, the masses of the
people have not yet learned to
make use of these conveniences,
| recall, in passing along one of
these streets, in the center of the
city, which had been recently laid
out with broad stone sidewalks and
built up with handsome three and
four story stone buildings, seeing
a man and COW standing on the
sidewalk at the corner of the
street. 1t seemed to me that the
natural thing would have oeen to
let the COW stand in the street and
not obstruct the sidewalk. But
these people evidently look upon
the COW as having the same rights
as other members of the popula-
ton. While the man who owned
the COW was engaged in milking,
a group of women from the neigh
boring tenements stood about with
their pitchers and gossiped, wait
ing their turn at the COW.
This method of distributing
milk, namely, by driving the ami
NAL to the front door and milking
while you wait, has some advan-
tages. 1t makes it unnecessary to
sterilize the milk, and adulteration
becomes impracticable. The dis
is that, in order to make
this method of milk delivery poss-
ible, the COW and the goats must

Feeding The Dairy Calf

Young calves need whole milk for
the first few days. The calf should
always have the first or oolostrum
mink of the COW and be allowed to
nurse the COW until the eighth or
ninth milking, when the milk is
suitable for human food. Feed often
with small amounts to avoid over
feeding. Teach the calf to drink and
feed whole milk for at least three
weeks, changing to a skim milk diet
gradually
The amount of milk fed should be
carefully regulated. A good plan
with the normal calf is to give 4
pounds g quarts) OF while milk
three times per day, fed sweet and at
blood temperature. In the state of
nature the calf gets milk containing
about per cent fat. our domesti-
Gated cows have been bred in some
instances to give nearly twice this
amount. Milk that is too rich may
cause serious trouble from scours.
and In feeding such milk care should
be exercised TO give limited amounts
at the proper temperature. The feed
ing of whole milk should be con-
tnued for about three or four weeks.
when the number of meals may be
reduced to two per day. From one
half to a pint of skim-milk may now
be substituted for an equal quantity
of whole milk The amount Of skim
milk may be gradually increased and
the amount Of whole milk cores
pondingly decreased until, at the end
OF a week or 10 days. the calf II get
ting all skim milk.
Skim milk is cheap feed for
calves but should be foe carefully in
limited quantities and only while It
is warm and sweet S'Sim milk may
form the principal diet Of the calf for
eight months or year. Factory
skim milk should always be pasteur-
lied to avoid the spread of tubercu-
losis. The best skim milk is that
which is fresh from the separator
and still warm Experiments show
that II is only one-fourth as expen-
slve to raise a calf on skim milk as
whole milk. Two pounds Of grain
with the proper amount Of skim
milk equals one pound Of butter fat.
Buttermilk or whey may profitably
be fed TO calves.
Grain for calves should be fed
first while the calf b quite small
