A FEW POINTS ON DAIRYINo

To have your cows milk long,
milk them clean.
Uneven sailing and working make
streaky butter.
Keep the farm separators cIean, in
side and outside.
Do not keep your small patches
of skim milk. Feed it while it is
sweet.
When the butter sticks to the
worker the latter was not scalded
properly. Rub it with salt anu scald
again.
There is no longer any question
that the earlier the calf is taken
from its mother the easier It will
be to teach it to drink.
1t don't pay to keep cows for a
side issue. Get the best and make
dairying a business just like any
branch of farm work.
In the successful dairy, kindness
to animals, careful attention to clean
illness and the comforts of the COW
are sure to be found.
In order to make a success of rails
ing the calf on skim milk the con-
dition of the milk must be uniform
ly sweet. Nothing. perhaps will con.
tribute more to produce scours in
calves than to feed sweet milk one
day and sour milk the next.
Interest on a note runs night and
day and never stops until the note
is paid. Give the dairy COW
the right kind of feed and
while you sleep she will be turning
into butter fat worth four times as
much as the feed, and have 1t al
ready when you get up in the morn
ing.

SALARIES OF RURAL
MAIL CARRIERS

The following is taken from the
current issue of Farm and Preside:
"on September first the salaries
of rural mali carriers were increased.
On standard routes this advancement
of salaries amounted to 500 year.
Those carriers who have been mis-.
takenly opposing parcels post are
now able to see that the new law
will give them additional compensa-
ton somewhat in proportion to the
larger service they will render. One
of these days the position OF carrier
will become a much more important
and lucrative one than many OF us
are able to foresee. The best OF
1t is that, according to the Postmas.

be more than onset by an increased

HAD AUTO IN WAITING,
SEXES BIG ARMFuL

Salt Lake City, Nov. 1S.-Charles
Green, an ex-convict who was re-
leased from the state prison Thurs
day, after serving a sentence there
for burglary, stands an excellent
chance of returning to that institu'
ton to serve another term for bur-
glary, according to the evidence the
police department claims to have
against him.
1t is charged that early yesterday
morning, with public automobile
waiting at the curb for him, Greene
hurled a stone through the plate
glass window of the Webster-Wise
clothing store, rs East Second South
street, seized an armful OF suits,
leaped into the waiting automobile
and ordered the driver to beat 1t. y
Patrolman A. e. Lund, VINO has
been distinguishing himself OF late
in the capture Of thieves, and Patrol
man Leon Mayhem, heard the crash
and falling glass, and ran TO the
scene in time to capture Green be-
fore the automobile could be started
by Chauffeur G.. A. Eldredge. The
latter claimed he was not party
to the attempted robbery and did not
know of Green's intentions. Green
was locked at police headquarters on
the charge of burglary and a COM
plant will probably be filed against
him today. The automobile driver
claims that when he saw Green re-
turning with an armful of clothing
he threw the machine out OF gear
to give the police a chance TO arrest
Green.

MORE ABOUT
ORCHARD TILlAGE


A writer in the Nebraskan Farmer
says:
Orchard tillage has at least three
beneficial effects worth noting In
the first place the stirring of the
soil in an orchard soon after a heavy
rain hastens the drying out of a pro-
tective dry soil layer to prevent the
escape of moisture from the soil in
to the air. In the second place cul-
tivation keeps the soil loose and
open. In other words, it supplies
ventilation so that the processes IN
the soil that are required to prepare
plant food for the use of the trees
may go on under the most favorable
conditions.
There Is but one limitation 10 the
thorough cultivation of orchard trees
and that is to guard against Guilt
waiting too late in the summer where
there Is danger that the growth OF
the trees will be encouraged at the
expense OF delayed ripening OF the
wood growth OF the season. Usual
~ cultivation should stop about the
first OF August in ordo~ to allow the
trees to stop CROWN d ripen their
wood before cold weather Utah

A TYPE or REPREsENTATINE DFMOC-

The meeting Of the Presbyterians of Virginia
and North Carolina in Richmond during the
crucial period of national campaign, in which
the fate of representative government is ac-
cepted by some as the supreme issue. is not
without interest to those who recall that the
government of the Presbyterian Church Is a
representative government, very similar to that
of the United States.
The foundation of the church government is
the congregation. just as the people is the foun-
daton OF our own Federal government Next
above the congregational meeting is the session
OF the individual church. and above that the
presbytery or district government The synod
in which are representatives of the presby-
teries, is the next highest in authority the
supreme authority being the general assembly
% the church. The congregation chooses the
members of the church session. which governs
itself as the counties of State govern them
selves, subject to certain restrictions All
power of the general assembly comes indi-
rectly from the congregation. The eongrega-
tions may be compared loosely to the people
ct the counties and cities, the session 20 the
county government. the presbyteries to the
Legislative districts. the synod to the State and
the general assembly to the Federal govern
ment. There are some differences, of course
but the general scheme of church government
resembles to great degree the system of gov
eminent in this country.

The contest between Watson and Turnbuil
in the Fourth congressional district served to
show just what an absurd law the legislature
put on the statute books. The Byrd primary
bin was torn all to pieces in the senate, and
the law finally passed distinctly dis
creditahle to the Democratic party.
Mr. Byrd. in commenting upon the law as 1t
exists. says:
1t will never really be worth much until the
Judges of election are appointed by the electoral
boards and until the votes cast In primaries are
canvassed required by the general eecti On
law and the courts have Jurisdiction of all APP
peals."
In this State the primary is practically the
election. and the people will never be satisfied
until every safeguard that surrounds the gen
eral election Is applicable to the primary.
If the legislature refuses to give the people
fair and absolutely safe primary law the
voters are simply going TO ignore the primaries
and vote in the general election they see II.
No party domination is strong enough TO
make the people party to any crooked cleo
ton machinery. No primary law will be re-
spected that is known to leave loopholes for
corruption.--Norfoik Ledger Dispatch.

PROVES VALUE or PUBLIC SCHOOLS.

The of figures to show the value of edu-
cation is sometimes misleading. The practice
OF taking at random body of pubiic-school
to show that the earning capacity of its mem
bers Is greater than that of an equal number
OF nonrgraduates, also taken at random is
much like attempting to gain advance knowl-
edge of the result of election by a straw
vote. Even straw votes, however If pains
takingly taken, are sometimes valuable and are
always interesting. The following figures gath
cred by the school board of Massachusetts are
not lacking in interest and may shed some
light upon the discussion as to whether public
school education is financially worth while:
The careers of a large number of boys who
left school at the age of fourteen eighth
grade1 we're traced out, up to the age Of
average of 81 per week. At the age of twenty
five their average earnings were s12.75 per
week
Another set of boys who remained in high
school through the whole or large part of
the course traced out. These boys began
work at so per week and their average pay
at twenty five years of age was S31 per week
In twelve years the aggregate earning of the
average boy who left school at fourteen
amounted to $5.7225o. an average of sl76SS
per year.
In eight years the aggregate earning Of the
average boy who took the high-school training
was $7,377.50, average of s92219 per
year. almost twice much as the boy who
went to work four years earlier In life
Similar Investigations have had similar re-
suits, but after all the material of an education
is not the sole objective The further capac-
ity for solid enjoyment which an education
gives is not without value TO the individual
who, as well the State. is to be considered
