Keep upS Her Milk.

Whatever you do. try to keep
up a cows flow of milk after she
once becomes fresh. 1t may be
possible to bring her up again te
considerable extent after having
dropped, but the undertaking is
difficult. 1t costs much more TO
bring her back even partially than
to keep her up from the start With
plenty of good clover and bluegrass
pasture and an abundance of pure
water, 1t ought not be hard to
keep up a cows original flow OF
milk, at least within reasonable lim-
its. When the pasture begins to
dry up, give the COW some good
protein feed like alfalfa, cowpeas or
clover hay, II these cannot be
obtained, in their stead give some
wheat bran or few pounds of cot
tonseed meal.

NOTES OF The FARM.
COLUMN OF INTERESTING NEWS
THAT WILL BENEFIT
FARMERS,
The Cow 10 Freshen.

Don't neglect the COW that you
are expecting to freshen. She
should have plenty of nutritious
food, but not too much. The calf
will be better by properly feeding
the mother, The drain of her own
system by CESSATION must also be
supplied
The COW must be kept in vigor-
Gus health and good condition in
order to enable her to stand up
well under the approaching ordeal
A COW that is poorly nourished dur
ing this period often succumbs when
the crisis arrives.
Plenty of good feed before caly-
ing will give better development to
the cows udder. A swollen udder
only indicates copious flow of
milk and. points out good COW.

skim MIX Cheese.

The Dairy Review thinks W,
ought to make more skim milk
cheese in this country instead OF
feeding the milk to calves and pigs
In Europe a dozen or more varieties
of cheese are made from skim milk
and we import a number
of them for which we pay fancy
prices. They are of the soft sort
and comprise most palatable and
nutritious article of food. Why we
have so long neglected this import
ant feature of the dairy business is
somewhat remarkable, Cottage
cheese is not all we can get from
skim milk by any sort of means and
some OF our dairy people are be-
ginning to find 1t out.

Business Conditions.

THE only unfavorable element in
the situation is the unfavorable at
! titude of federal lawmakers and
state officials towards the railways
and the spirit which would prevent
the companies from moderately ad-
yancing their charges to offset
the increased cost of operation.
When the manufacturer is obliged
to pay higher prices for raw ma
terial and increased wages he
does the only possible, thing in
the circumstances and correspond
ingly raises the charge for his
product. The railways are oblidg-
ed to pay increased prices for sup
plies and higher wages and 1t is
only reasonable that they should
get more for what they sell, namely,
transportation.
That they are impelled to raise
their charges is plain from cur
rent traffic returns showing in
creased gross takings, while costs
Of operation have increased inI
still great ratio, with resulting de-
crease in net earnings. Unless
The greatest of all industries is per-
nitted to prosper the country cam
lot be prosperous"

$50, Af|1ston, W. Va, June 15.-
'eI d ||I| compiled by Charles Con.
Of the office of Chief John
mag D the department of mines
t4ey that West Virginia has set a
.ecedent in the mining of coal.
For the year beginning July /, 1903
not one person has been killed by
any kind of an explosion inside a
coal mine If this record is main
tanned for seventeen more days
there will be a whole year with
out fatality due to a mine ex-
plosion in the state.
This is almost an unheard of
thing in coal mining. Ever since
mining began in West Virginia
there have been several explosions
Of dust gases, etc, some of them
Strengthening men by the hundreds
There has been the usual number
of accidental deaths, caused by
falls of slate and other accidents
but if the rest of the present
month can get through withou an
explosion West Virginia mining CON
ditions will attract attention from
all over the country.

A Timely Warning About Flies.

In every town and locality II
the State may people have failed q
heed the numerous warnings tina
have been issued against flies. AZ
tention has been called 10 TN
fact that they are one OF the mos
dangerous menaces to life anC
health with which mankind has Il
contend, being responTte FIR ,
large proportion OF all cases o.
typhoid fever and durrhoeal dis
eases OF infants and mani cases Of
tuberculosis and other contagious
diseases.
They have caused thouasnds OF
deaths in Kentucky and Will con
tinue their work OF destruction uil-
iii housekeepers awaken 10 the
fact and inaugurate wacfare that
will result in their determination.
This can be accomplished definite
ly and effectively. 1t requires on
ly THE REMOVAL OF FILTH.
Flies breed In filth and live in
filth. Without filth there can be
no flies, More than 80 per cent OF
them breed in stable manure aud
the balance in garbage, outhouses
and other forms OF refuse
The fly season is at hand
Prompt action at this time may pre-
vent many deaths during the sum
mer and fall and grave response
bility rests upon all health officers
and other citizens.
An immediate and thorough clean
ing of premises should be affected,
further accumulations OF filth avoid
ed Stable manure should be kept
in vaults or boxes screened or, COW
cred or frequently sprinkled with
lime or kerosene and should be
removed at least once week.
Garbage rleceptacles should be
carefully covered and the contents
sprinkled with unslaked lime or
oil
Priyy vaults should be made fly
proof and their contents frequently
sprinkled with lime.
In addition to the measures for
the prevention of the breeding of
flies every effort should be made
to prevent them from entering the
house or having access to milk or
other foods.
ALI doors and windows especially
those of the kitchen and dining
room should be screened.
Food exposed for sale should be
screened and ordinances to this
Effect should be enacted and en-
orced. 4
