PUBLISHER MARRIES

Milton A. Dillingham;. of the firm
of Dillingham; Bros, publishers OF
The Mackay Miner, gave his friends
a surprise last week by slipping away
and getting married without their
knowing it. The lady in the case is
Miss Gladys Ferguson of Mackay,
and he was visiting friends in Salt
Lake City Mr.. Dillingham; dressed
up in his hunting attire and left
town in company with the state game
warden, and after a few days re-
turned with his bride.
The ceremony was performed at
Salt Lake City on Saturday the 31st
of August, at the home of his sister
Mrs. Thos. Holding, Jr., Rev. Mr..
Neil of the Central Christian church
officiated, and after days visit in
the city by the lake they returned
to Mackay, where their reception was
of the most cordial kind. A pro-
cession met them at the depot with
a gay old rig drawn by a big horse
and a little mule, the harness being
made of ropes, chains end things,
and many ornaments attached, all
being tokens of esteem arranged by
the delightful populace.

will take couple of years.
There is a difference of opinion
in regard to using coal ashes to pull
verize soil. We are using it with
apparent success in preparing soil
for ferns and a few other plants.
Further tests are also being made.
The use of liquid manure is another
good way to secure abundant growth.
This is made by leeching, or pouring
water thsough manure, preferably
fresh for this), and applying week
solution to the plants, perhaps twice
week until the desired result Is
obtained. It is better to begin using
this too weak than overdo the mat
ter by sing it too strong which may
kill the plant.
There is no apparent reason why
people living in town owning their
own homes, may not grow a good
variety of flowers, vines and shrubs
if they SO desire. With tho farmer
and his good wife, however, it is a
different matter. It is absolutely a
waste Of time and energy to make
any attempt to beauty grounds un-

A GOOD INVESTMENT.

The lots in the Park block just
east of the depot, which were put
on sale couple of weeks ago are
near the center of town and are level
and in every way inexpensive to i'm
prove. The surroundings are good
and anybody desiring a place for a
home should look them over before
they are sold.
1t is not SO much the first cost of
lots that counts, as the ease with
which they can be improved and
made into homes. The grading or
lack of it, the distance from places
that everybody goes to daily are
things that modify original prices
and should be considered carefully.

age is passed, but three or four of
them racing and romping will do an
untold amount of damage.
There is often. an inclination to
put off improving the grounds for
some reason; quite frequently it is
the children. Parents say they will
wait until the little ones are grown
and leaving them, then will turn
their attention to flowers. Why not

the children up with flowers, music,

books and wholesome pleasures that
educate as life goes along, preparing
the young people for conducting
homes of their own and leaving
pleasant memories of an attractive
parental home.
Do not wait until the boys and
girls have formed habits that lead
them to be committed to the reform
school or some other institution of
correction until they are twenty-one
years old, not only leaving a stain
upon their lives, but depriving them
of all the happiness and buoyancy of
youth which rightly belongs to them.
What pleasure can parents find
in beautiful homes when their child

A practical way to begin the work
is to prepare the soil this fall on
lines suggested, and plant a row or
clump Of peonies, pulverizing the
soil very deep for them. When the
ground is frozen, cover with mulch
of straw or coarse litter as a win
ter protection. Peonies are willing

local nurseyman carry a variety of
well nourished plants that are entire
ly satisfactory. Other suggestions for
floral planting will be given in sub
sequent articles. Preparation of the
soil is the first step necessary.

Most of the samples of milk were
free from faint, but two samples
were tainted with "cowy" odor
and silage flavor. One sample had
evidently not been aerated and
was criticised for having a dis
tinctly ''cowy" odor. The cream
had sometimes been tainted by the
use of a dirty separator or dairy
utensils. A large percentage of
the samples of milk and cream
were marked with very high
score by the Judge, and it was only
occasionally, among the thirty-one
entries of milk and cream, that
the above named faults were found.
The premium offered at the
dairy show aggregated in value
$3.50, and it is sincerely hoped
that next year every section OF
Kentucky will be literally repre-
sented by exhibits.

printed in square, or brick shape,
except the two samples that scored
lowest. These round samples
were wrapped in waxed paper,
whereas the highest scoring
samples were wrapped in parch-
ment paper. The waxed paper
sticks to the butter, and it looks
bad.
The best sample of country but
ter scored 90 per cent, and the
best five received mark above
"a, while the best sample of cream
cry butter received score above
90 per cent. This is no reflection
upon the creamery butter, which
was of high quality, but seldom
does an expert Judge give a score
above 90 per cent to any butter.
The expert judge of the dairy
show highly complimented the
country butter exhibit. This
high score received by the first
prize sample proves that as good
butter may be made on the farm
as can be made anywhere, pro-
vided the farmer is prepared to
handle the cream and fresh butter
properly at every stage.

Farmers Should Get the Tariff
Boards Full Report on
Schedule X.

1t seems to be the judgment of
various impartial critics that the
report of the Tariff Board upon
Schedule K-wool and manufact-
ures thereof-when fully studied |
and comprehended, will be set
down as really monumental
piece of work of its kind. The
demands upon Congress for COM
plete copies are already so great
that talk of second and larger
edition is heard. Farmers, ranch
men and students of agricultural
economics in general will find the
report of absorbing interest, par
ticularly Part III, dealing with
flock maintenance in different
parts of the United States.
President Taft has through the
medium of this report let a Hood
of light in upon the questions in
volved in the revision of the most
complicated of all the tariff sched-
ules. and incidentally has present
ed study of one of the most i'm
portant branches of live stock
husbandry, more complete in
complete in many respects than
any similar work ever undertaken
by any Government. When writ
ing to your Congressman or Sen
ator for copy, ask for the entire
report, not the mere synopsis.
You will be glad to preserve it as
a permanent addition to the farm
library. The Government has
paid for the work and the people
are entitled to have it.

AGRICULTURAL
EXTENSION
. lessons Derived from Kentucky
Dairy Show.


.dairymen of the State held an inn
portant meeting and the awards
were announced in the third an
nual dairy show. Nineteen entries
of farm butter were sent to the
show, and they we're Judged by
Il. G. Corneliuson of the U. ,.
Dairy Division. Since the awards
were made we have read the
statements that we're sent in by
each dairyman with his sample OF
butter. Many lessons may be
learned from the show.
In the first place we note that
centrifugal separators are in use
ON the farm of each dairyman who
won a premium. The separator
enables the dairyman to secure the
cream in a sweeter and cleaner
condition than the gravity system
of separation, and through this
means better butter may be made.
The best butter was made from
cream ripeued for "a hours, until
slightly acid, and which was kept
uniformly warm. One exhibitor
ripened the cream by pouring 1T
into can near the kitchen stove.
The open can permitted the cream
to dry on top, and clots of curd
were present in the butter. One
of the worst samples was made
from cream ripened y hours.
The dairyman who made the
best butter churned the cream at
temperature of SO degrees, and it
required 80 minutes to churn.
One dairyman who produced low
scoring butter had the cream at
68 degrees F. and churned in
fifteen minutes. The cream was
too warm, the body of the butter
was weakened, and by the rapid
gathering of the butter, much Of
fat in the cream did not gather
and was probably lost in the but
termilk.
The premium samples of butter
were made in the hollow churns
of either the swing or barrel types.
These dairymen churn the cream
until the granules appear the size
of corn kernels, then they stop
the churn, draw off the butter
milk, and wash the granules twice
with clean water that is of the
same temperature as the butter
milk. They use the same amount
OF wash water as they have butter
milk. This washes the butter.
milk out of the butter, but one
.dairyman reported that he worked
the buttermilk out of his butter
instead of washing it out. Tbs
Judge noticed that a few Whit
spots of casein were present il
this sample of butter.
The lady who made the frs
premium butter adds salt at tn
rate of a teaspoonful to tw'
pounds of fresh butter. The 9th
er prize winners stated that the.
sailed at the rate of three-quarte
ounces salt to one pound of un

There are two ways to tell whether you
have weak kidneys.
The first is through the pains in the back
and other outward signs. The second is
by examination of the kidney secretions.
That is why physicians make such q
careful examination when you apply for
insurance, and if there is any sign of kid
ney trouble you are surely rejected.
Kidney disease is so dangerous that it
is bad mistake to overlook or neglect it,
and if pain in the back, recurring head
aches, or a,fretful, nervous, tired condition
makes you suspect some kidney trouble,
take the trouble to watch the kidney secre-
tons. Look for any of the following
signs:
More or less than three and one half
pints passed daily.
Too dark or too pale color.
PASSAGES too frequent. profuse. or much
reduced. or scaldind and painful.
sandy. Gritty or cloudy settings.
Fat or oily-lookinG layer which gathers
or jelly-like thickeninG.
Staining of the linen or bad odor
Temporary changes may occur for time
from things eaten, but if the changed ap-
pearance continues, your kidneys are out
of order and need help. Neglect may prove
serious.
Doan's Kidney Pills correct and regu-
late the kidney secretions, stimulate and
heal sick kidneys, and thereby drive away

Millions for Anti-TubercuIosis Work.
Money to the amount of over $14.-
100000 was spent in anti-tuberculosis
work during the year 1911, according
to the third annual statement of ex-
penditures in the war against con-
sumption issued by the National Asso-
citation for the Study and Prevention
OF tuberculosis. The statement Is
based largely on reports received from
anti-tuberculosis agencies in all parts
of the United States.
By far the largest, item of expense
was that for treatment In sanatoria
and hospitals. and for the erection OF
institutions of this kind, over $780,
900 being spent for this purpose
alone. Dispensaries for the examina-.
ton and treatment of tuberculosis
spent $850.000, and associations and
committees In their educational CAM
paign against tuberculosis spent $780,
900. The remaining $1,30O,000 was
spent for treatment In open-air
schools, prisons and hospitals for the
insane. and also for the work OF
state and local boards OF health
against tuberculosis.
