THE MILK MAKER.

Certainty is the fundamental
necessity in dairying. Don't
guess at results, but know what
you are doing.
It is very necessary for newly
born calves to receive the colOs-
trum or the first milk from the
COW after freshening.
Where one has reason to ex-
pect a cow to be predisp0sed to
milk fever her calf should be left
with her during the first forty
eight hours after freshening.
In order to know whether a
COW is profitable or not you must
know what she eats and what
she yields. Either alone is not
sufficient.
Carelessness is one Of the most
common causes Of failure on the
dairy farm. Look to your work
and to the details every day.

To Seek Lost Race Near Amazon.

To Seek Lost Race Near Amazon.
Washington, May 10. Just to the
north Of the lower reaches of the ANA
zon lies a section of Brazilian and
British Guiana watered by hundred
large and small streams tributary to
the great river which is one of the last
bits Of No Mans Land left. There may
be all sorts Of interesting things to be
seen in this 700 by 400 miles bit of un-
explored country, strange animals and
reptiles and stranger men. Algot
LANCE, who has already two explora-
tons Of the Amazon region to his cred
it, means to find out He will start
early in June for Para, where he will
fit out a cruising houseboat and then
say goodby to civilization for two or
three years.
The explorer hopes to find something
more interesting than big snakes this
time. On his last journey, in 1913,
when he explored part of the lower
Amazon region, he found and brought
back some remarkable specimens Of
ancient pottery, bearing strong resem-
blance in design and workmanship to
Aztec ceramic art. Mr.. LANCE has
theory that the people Of civilization
much higher than any other that has
left its mark on the Amazon region
moved north and that traces of them,
perhaps remnants of the tribes of their
descendants, may be found in the I'M
explored region he intends to pene-
trate.

physical science in 1907, has completed
twelve year task of drawing 100000

The purpose Of the ruled metal, which
Is called a diffraction grating, is to

Arizona to Be Launched In June,


New York, May 12.-The new super
Dreadnought Arizona is more than So
per cent completed at the navy yard
in Brooklyn and will be launched early
in June. AS soon as she takes the wa
ter preparations will begin for the lay
ing Of the keel of the still greater SUI
per-Dreadnought California, which also
is to be built at the navy yard. Con-
tracts for the materials to be used in
the construction of the California are
now being let.
The launching Of the Arizona is ex-
pected to prove one of the greatest
naval celebrations in the history Of
New York. The time selected for the
great ship to take her plunge into the
East river is one when the entire At
lantic fleet will be in New York wa
tiers, making it possible for $4,000 Off
GERS and men Of that organization to
witness the ceremony. President Will
son will be urged to go to Brooklyn for
the launching. President Taft was
present in Brooklyn at the launching
Of the battleship New York on Oct
80, 1912.
The Arizona will be the\ fourth Of
the great battleships built in the New
York navy yard to be launched, the
others having been the old flagship
Connecticut, the Dreadnought Florida
and the super-Dreadnought New York,
the last named the new flagship of the
Atlantic feet. When she goes over
board she probably will be about 65
per cent completed, which indicates
that it will be early in the spring of
1916 before she is ready to take her
place at unit of the first super Dread
nought division of the Atlantic fleet.
Her sister ship, the Pennsylvania, was
launched at Newport News, Va, a few
weeks ago.

him at Fort Worth This was the
only information any member of the
family could give as to his where

this information il was said he was
born somewhere in Wisconsin, prob

and Chicago University, was abroad
some time, then went to Mexico and
came to Fort Worth in 1908, after
which his life is an open book,
Mrs Hollis attorney explained
