BUILDING Up
DAIRY BUSINESS

washington, Jan, 10.-"In mucn OF
the west cattle raising for beef has
long been the principal business
said Secretary Wilson, but dalrylns
is comparatively new. There Is an
extensive market, however, for dairy
products; and especially in h newly
settled regions it is found that the
dairy industry fills such a place IN
agricultural economy that it's develop
ment is urgently needed.
'In addition, a special enterprise mas
been undertaken with creamery pa
irons in Iowa, the object being to de-
termine whether it will pay creamer-
les to carry on the same sort of work
among their own farmer patrons Tor
the sake of getting a better quality Oh
cream as material for making butter.
Here also record keeping has been in
PRODUCED, along with other improved
methods, and the effort is made to
discover the leaks that reduce profits,
TN the older states Of the north,
where dairying is already an establish
! ed and highly developed industry, the
work OF the department outside OF ad-
vice to individuals upon request, con-
sists chiefly in the propagation OF
cow-testing associations and the i'm
provement of city milk supplies, Cow
testing associations are societies for
cooperating in the keeping Of hero
records by engaging a man who goes
from farm to farm periodically, makes
| observations, and keeps records fol
the herds of all the members OF the
association. BY this means records
are secured without the trouble or *
pense involved when each man keeps
them for himself; and in various 9TH
er ways the cooperation of the farm
ers is productive of profit. The prim-
airy objects are to detect and weed
out inferior individual cows, and BY
the use of pure-bred bulls to perpetu-
ate and intensity the valuable char
acteristics of the ows that are found
to be good ones-thus raising the a.
erage quality of the individual COW and
the total productiveness of the herd
There are eighty-fiye COW testing as
sociations now in twenty states, com
prising $4,000 cows.
THE records of one of these asso.
Citations show that the profit was
doubled after four years work. Fol
instance. a man with eight cows found
the first month Of keeping records
that he was losing 5h cents per COW
or Al cents on his herd for that month
After three months testing he wa:
making a profit Of S32 a month on th'
herd, and at the end Of the year hi
profit has increased to $50 a month
This notable increase was due largely
to the sale of five of his poorest cows
and the purchase of as many we'll
producing n e to take their places
In addition there were changes made
in the method of feeding, which con.
duoed to the result"

POssibnities.

The folks all laughed long years ago
at old Darius Green
When he laid out to fly the air with
his bird-like machine.
They Uttered till they cracked their
sides at Mr.. Fulton's talk
When he said he'd fit up a boat with
steam and make her walk.
They greeted talk Of telephones with
a derisive yell
And heaped all sorts of ridicule on
Alexander Bell.
When Holland took his submarines
beneath the raging main,
The sages gravely shook their heads
and said he was insane.
The public had a lot Of fun and
couldn't help but laugh
When young Marconi started on his
wireless telegraph.
When Edison built Photographs and
said what they could do
1t was considered such a joke. 1t
tickled folks clear through.
And now they're getting up a scheme
to have a talk with Mars.
And confidential chats with quite a
multitude of stars.
OF course. we know faint possible,
but still nobody dast
Make any jokes concerning 1t when he
thinks of the past.
The folks would like to laugh right out
and ridicule the thing,
But there's a chance that by some
means they'll do it yet, by jing.

The Old Fashioned Dinner.

To the New England dinner, / sing!
TO the genuine. old-fashioned thing.
With its corned beef and cabbage
and fixin's clear through;
It's turnips and parsnips and cauli-
flower, too,
All jumbled up in a magnificent
stew.
1t touches the spot Is no other
mealsG do,
Its memories ever will cling.
The kind that we all used to know.
And we had every fortnight or so;
Not the kind that they serve ix the
gilded cafe,
Where they have finger bowls and
the ~orehestras play;
Where a Teller cant eat in the old
fashioned way,
Bein' scared of what some other
people might say,
But the kind that mother cooked long
ago
HOW oft have we hailed with delight
And with robust appetite
The peals of the old-fashioned farm
dinner bell
AS we rushed to the kitchen to get
the first smell
Of the savory feed that we all liked
so well.
How I'd love just to linger an hour
meath the spell
CT a New England dinner tonight.

SECRETARY WILSON,

When Secretary of Agriculture Will
son retires at the end of the present
administration, after breaking all
records for continuous cabinet service.
he will leave behind him a record OF
duty we'll performed. Secretary Will
son has not escaped the criticism that
has fallen to the lot of practically all
our public men in recent years, but
the record he has made in office is the
only answer necessary to this crlti-
cism. In his annual report to congress
this year-his last report-there are
a few figures and comparisons given
that show something of the service
Secretary Wilson's department has
done for the country.
For instance, the secretary points
out in his report that when he took
charge of the department sixteen
years ago the yearly farm production
was $4,000, 100000. This year it was
50, 532, 100000, more than double. "Six-
teen years ago." the secretary says,
with pardonable pride, "the farmer
was joke of the caricaturist; now he
is like the stone that was rejected by
the builder and has become the head
stone Of the corner" Secretary Wilson
is a farmer, himself, and he can be
pardoned for calling our attention to
the progress the farmer has made.
Secretary Wilson does not take the
credit to himself. The great and grow
ing movement carried on by the de-
partment,, he says, has not been sus-
tanned solely by one man, nor by a
few men. but by corps CT scholarly
experts in their special lines of en-
,deavor. But the great things accom-
plished by this department were
brought about by the guiding hand. Of
llama Jim" nevertheless He found
a department with 2,244 employees and
an annual appropriation of $S,272,s02
when he went into office. Today there
are 1858 employees, and this year
there was an appropriations OF $25 ,O00.-
900 to carry on the departments work.
How we'll this work has been done Is
indicated by an increase In the farm
ers' wealth production during these
sixteen years of al per cent.

The superintendent Of schools In
Sumter, S. c., a town Of less than
10000, reports that there are 241
pupils in the high school of that town.
Last year fifty-three graduated from
high school and forty went to college.
DR.. P. P. Claxton, United States COM
missioner of education. sees truly re-
markable record in the South Caro-
lima educators achievement. Sumter,
by the way, has habit Of proceeding
along original lines. It was this town
that gained prominence by adopting
the city manager" plan of city gov
eminent In the schools there Is the
same disposition shown to get out OF
the beaten paths. Boys and girls are
educated separately from the sixth
grade up, making it possible to apply
education more directly to the special
needs of each sex. Then there is a
military company of grammar and
high school boys, in charge Of regu-
larly employed ccmmandant, which
proves an attractive feature. Another
feature of the Sumter school plan Is
the insistence by the superintendent
that each pupil shall realize that he is
an individual, not mere cog In the
machine. In Sumter this has been
found to develop a sense of personal
pride which leads to desire for more
and more education.

Families planning to have Christmas
trees In their homes this year are
warned to take precautions against
fires. The ordinary evergreen Christ.
mas tree is inflammable in itself, when
taken into warm room and dried out.
But when it is draped with cotton for
snow, tissue paper loops and tinsel
for decorations, and candles are stuck
all over 1t there is positive danger of
fire unless caution is used. When a
lighted tree, thus decorated is hung
with toys the children grab for, the
stage Is set for tragedy unless the
utmost precautions are used. It has
been suggested that electric lights
should be used in place of candles
where possible, asbestos instead of
cotton and non-combustible decorations
instead Of infammables. If the can
dies and cotton and tissue paper and
tinsel are used some Of the adult mem.
bers Of the family should guard the
children with the utmost care as they
play about the tree. .. ....
