TO DEVELOP DAIRY HElFERS
Great Caro- Taken In Milking Young
Animal Quietly as Possible to
Avoid Kicking Habit

Our endeavors to develop our dairy
heifers into persistent mixers start
when the heifer has its first calf,
writes William Turner to Farm and
Dairy, Petersboro, Ont. We take
great care in milking the heifers using
them as quietly as possible so as not
to get them in the habit of kicking.
Many a heifer is spoiled during its
first year from lack of such care.
If the heller shows signs of drying
too soon, we still continue to milk her
even If the quality Of milk does not
pay for the time spent. We know,
however, that we will be doubly re-
paid during the next period of lacta-
ton, for she will then keep up the
flow until the proper time to stop.
A COW that has got into the habit
Of slackening in her milk flow toe
soon after calving can be made into
a good mixer by persistent care. We
bought COW four years ago that II
her first season Of milking was almost
dry in six months. We still milked
her. however. and she Is now a grand
mixer.

ALLOWS SLEEPING IN CHURCH
Massachusetts Pastor Will Permit
Tired Attendants Upon Services to
Rest Wthaut Disturbance.

Cambridge, Mass.-Sleeping men
will find a welcome at the Union Con-
gregational church here, according to
an announcement made by the pastor.
Rev. DR.. Allan Stockdale.
The minister heard recently that
many men were unwilling to attend
church services because Of the fear
that they would disgrace themselves
by going to sleep. This is his reply:
Let them come here; they may GO
to sleep II they want to. They will
not worry me atall on the other hand.
sleepers often cause me pleasure. The
sleeping man can't find anything to
complain about in my sermon or write
indignant letters to me afterward.
There are many reasons why men
go to sleep. Many have been hustline
during the week, and when they come
into a warm church and restfui pews
they can't avoid sleeping. Heavy air
and heavy sermons are also respon
sible. The music is soothing, too. Lei
the man fall asleep; the rest will dc
him as much good as the sermon. per
haDs."

Prime Vegetables

A vegetable grower in western
Pennsylvania has been highly success
full in supplying his local market with
the very best vegetables. He has al
ways endeavored to grow strictly
first-class vegetables and this has
made 1t possible to obtain prices con-
siderably above the average. For ex-
ample. he grows pink or purple fruit
ed tomatoes, not because they are
better than red tomatoes, but many
people think they are better. He
grows only two varieties, namely.
Globe and Magnus. The price which
he received from merchants the past
season ranged from two to eight cents
a pound. Even the minimum price of
two cents a pound is excellent after
the middle Of August. Again, this
gardener has been growing cauliflow.
err far above the average in quality
He uses a select strain of SNOWFALL
for both early and late crops. Some
heads have weighed six pounds and
he has sold them at fancy prices.

Scotch Cattle Sell High.

The Christmas sale Of cattle and
sheep which is held annually following
the Smithfield fat stock show was held
as usual at the cattle market In Lon
don. The quality was extremely good
and the prices excellent. There have
been fewer animals from the United
States sent to England than formerly,
and this has been the cause OF this

who last year were buying American
stock have been buying English meat.
The pick of this market was 600
Scotch cattle, including Angus and 9TH
or breeds, that brought as much as
s10.57 for 100 pounds live weight.

WOULD PREVENT TUBERCULOSIS
Necessity for Stopping the Disease at
its Source Presented to International
Congress at Rome by Nathan Straus,
Delegate from u. s. Government.

Rome.-Urgent pleas for the absolute
prevention of consumption were made
today before the seventh international
congress against tuberculosis by Nathan
Straus, the New York philanthropist,
who by appointment of President Taft
is senior delegate from the government
of the United States to this congress
in which experts from forty nations are
planning to extend the warfare against
the great white plague. Mr.. Straus
said:
The message with which am charged
by the government of the United
States is:
"Prevent tuberculosis. Stop it at its
sources"
My government, as the result of
twenty years investigation, believes
that the disease can be checked, con-
trolled and finally practically eradi-
Gated. Smallpox, yellow fever and the
bubonic plague have been stamped out
| in America, not by mere treatment of
the victims, but by scientific proven
| tive measures that went to the origin
of the infections.
| Milk a Considerable Factor.
| Pointing out that America had spent
$14, 100000 the past year in combating
tuberculosis and was maintaining 1896
associations and institutions whose
work was chiefly to alleviate, not tC
prevent, the dreaded disease, Mr.. Straul
cited the investigations by the United
States government that demonstrated
that "the milk from tuberculous cow
is real and considerable factor in thu
persistent increase of tuberculosi
among human beings"
He said these demonstrations ha'
been corroborated by the British Roya
commission on tuberculosis, that D1
Park of New York, had estimated tina
ten per cent of all children dying fror
tuberculosis were victims of milk in
lection. After showing the wide exten
of bovine tuberculosis, Mr.. Straus cite
the public health service, the America
Medical association and Rockefeller II
stitute of Medical Research as urgn
the necessity for pasteurizing milk s
/, as to prevent it's being a vehicle fc

SUIT LONG DELAYED
KANSAS WOMAN SUES FOR d.
voRcE AFTER 20 YEARS.
Action Was the First Big Luxury ID
the Self Sacrificing Life Of Do
serted Mother Of Eight
Children.

Chlcago.-Mrs. Ernest B. Case in
dulged herself in luxury the other
day, the first big luxury, by the way,
she has had In twenty years. The lux
ury was a suit for divorce.
Nearly twenty-one years ago Mrs
Case was living at Sedgwick, Kan.
She was we'll preserved woman OF
forty then, with brood OF eight
young children around her-and
husband.
One day the husband disappeared
He went off to town ostensibly on q
marketing expedition, leaving the wife
and her eight young children on the
lonely little farm together. He never
came back
1t required almost the whole OF the
first three months for Mrs. Case to
realize she had been deserted. She
had hoped against hope that such
thing could not be true, that this hu.
initiation had been spared her. but
finally she found herself face to face
with the fact.
Then she made up her mind to for.

years went by. With the aid OF kindly
neighbors she managed to exc out
living on the farm. At the end OF the
four years one of the neighbors who
had shown interest in her affairs sug'
gested that she should get divorce.
But Mrs. Case refused.

the children.
Ten years slipped by, years OF bit.

dren had to be reared and fed and
educated, and 1t all took money. But
at last some of the children reache
maturity and then the work OF the
mother grew lighter. They all by this
time had learned the story OF the
recreant father, and the older of them
urged, almost commanded, their moth
er to start the proceedings that would
give her legal separation.
Again Mrs. Case refused. She die
not tell the children why, but the rea
son was that in addition to an innate
aversion Of divorce she had the con
viction that the fact she was di
vorced woman might initiate agains
her daughters marriages.
The oldest daughter married th'
son OF a neighbor and moved to Chi

The ex-governor was at Rupert last

hear the spouting and the promises.
Every effort to mix w. X. Hyatt, candi-
date for representative on two county
division with the three county trick
met with failure. After the talk, confer
ences were held; then more conferences,
after which the ex-governor went into
conference with himself to find Just ex-
actly where he is located. We are not
informed as to the result of the last con-
ference. Perhaps Mr.. Dampier who has
lived in Rupert the past two years in the
interest of the Gooding plan was able to
suggest something; again, perhaps he
couldn't. After the primary it would be
