LaWson's attorneys will appeal. The
Chicago Federation of Labor has start
ed a movement to aid the labor leader
and recently wired President Wilson to
investigate the trial. 1t is believed that
organized labor will rally to the de-
tense of the convicted man.
John Nimmo was killed in q battle
between deputies and striking coal
miners. Lawson vas II of the lead
crs of the strike and had charge of the
tent colony in which the strikers were
established. Before the state militia
arrived on the scene at Ludlow several
clashes had taken place between the
strikers and deputy sheriffs. On the
afternoon of Oct. %, 1913, a fight
started between these deputies and a
body Of strikers. Firing ragged until
evening. Some time during the battle
Nimmo was shot In the leg and bled to
death. Lawson was charged with the
homicide on the theory of the prosecu-

WINTERING sToCKERS.
SiIage and C]ottonseed Meal an Eco.
nomical Ration For Cattle.

~ detS VI SdtSIVs
For wintering stocker cattle a ration
OF corn silage and c%ottonseed meal has
proved very economical. Two pounds
Of the meal combined with as much
corn silage as the cattle will eat will
give a small gain in weight. Straw
and other roughage which cannot 9TH
erwise be used advantageously may be
fed with the silage and cottonseed
meal. When the cattle are put on
pasture cottonseed cake, which is the
same as the meal in substance. can be
used prof1tably as a supplementary
feed.
C~ottOnseed meal is also recommend
ed as a winter ration for the breeding
herd. About two pounds of the meal
should be given to the breeding COWS
per day. together with some silage,
stover and other roughage. This will
prove an economical ration and one
which will leave the COW in good con-
dition in the spring. The bull also
may be fed from two to three pounds
Of cottonseed meal combined with
some other concentrated feed, but
some authorities hold that it is not
well to continue this feed too long, as
it is believed to have injurious effects
upon the breeding powers.-Tnited

ing bad days, and let out to drink only
pure water that is warmed. In sum-
mer they are on pasture day and night.
Before milking we wash and wipe
the udders and tanks. The milk is
separated Immediately after milking
and the cream is cooled as soon as
possible. We never put warm cream
with cool cream. We churn every
other day. We use a dairy thermom-
eter all the time. In summer we put
In ice to cool cream to about so de-
grees, anG in winter we add hot water
to make it about 60 degrees. When
our cream Is ripen1ng we stir often so
as to make the cream smooth and even.
We use a barrel churn, which is
scalded three times before and after
each using. When the butter reaches
a granular condition the buttermilk
Is drawn off and the butter is washed
In water until the water drawn off is
clear. The butter is now taken from
the churn and sailed, allowing one
ounce of salt to a pound of butter.
The butter is let stand until the salt
is dissolved and then it is worked and
put in n pound rolls and let stand
overnight in refrigerator. The next
morning each roll is placed in parch-
ment paper and is then ready for the
customers.
Nothing is kept in our milk house
but milk and cream, and in the re-
frigerator nothing but cream and but
ter, otherwise odors would quickly be
taken up by the butter and cream,
thus tainting both. Our milk pals are
washed. summed and scalded very
thoroughly. The separator is washed
both morning and evening and also
summed during the bright days.

Two Noted Sportsmen Honored by Bri.
Tain

London, Aug. %. - Military honors
have come to two sportsmen famous in
America-one an American Of a distin-
guished st. Louis family, Lieutenant
Oliver Dwight Fil1ey Of the Royal Fly
ing corps; the other Captain II. A.
Tomkinson Of the Royal dragons,
member of the British polo team that
wrested the international cup from
America in 1914.
Lieutenant Filley has received the
military cross for conspicuous gallan-
try, and Captain Tomkinson has re.
ceived promotion to the rank of major.
lllley is famous in American col
lege sports as an oarsman. He was
the stroke and captain of the Harvard
crew of 1906, which won over Yale,
and he afterward took the crew to
England to race Cambridge and Ok
ford on the Thames.
The gallantry by which the young
American has won the military cross
occurred on July 6, while he was TAX
ing observations for the British artil-
lery. The official report tells how
Lieutenant Filley, with an observer,
was aloft in an aeroplnne not especial
ly constructed for fighting; that he re-
pulsed two attacks by German aero
planes, continued his observations and
retired only after two German aero
planes charged him at once, his OBJ
server had been killed at his side, the
engine of the aeroplane crippled and
Lieutenant Filley had exhausted his
last round of ammunition in battling
with the enemy.
There is no official statement of the
reason for Major TOmkinsOn's promo
ton. save the Inference of general eff
ficiency. On his trips to America to
appear in the international polo matches
the tall, modest manrtered Englishman
achieved great social hOnors and was a
fayorite with the crowds because of his
fine riding and playing.

port presented by Naval Constructor
Roberts Of the bureau of construction
and repair, who made an examination
of the ship. The Oklahoma was to
have been ready for delivery in Octo-

AROUND II DAIRY.

The machinery of a COW, by
means of which she produces
milk. is as delicate as that of a
watch. and yet we often act as
though the contrary We're true.
1t is necessary to the perfect
thrift of q calf that it has q
chance to drink pure fresh wa
ter every day.
a cow that makes less than
200 pounds of butter a year is
not worth bothering With. You
don't have to have that kind,
either.
Any irregularities in the milk
ing or management of the COWS
will tend to lessen the milk flow
and cut the profits.
Improve the butter capacity Of
your herd by breeding only to a
high class butter sire.

Daniels Tells Of Plans to Improve Navy.
washington, Aug. 3O.-Josephus Dam
iels, secretary of the navy, has issued
the following statement:
We are now studying what has been
learned by the European war that will
constitute the best guide for the larger
naval program. The outstanding les
sons are three:
First.-The value of the submarine.
The last congress authorized twice as
many submarines as any previous con-
gress and also authorized the building
OF three seagoing submarines larger
than any nation has yet constructed.
We are building one submarine in the
navy yard at Portsmouth, N. H., and
must build others in navy yards, thus
securing competition between govern
ment plants and private construction
companies. We are expecting to get
better batteries. Two have already
been ordered from Edison and will be
shortly installed, one in an old and one
=" Aa1V Ill cAIJCIlS
and civilians are trying to improve the
motors, which are now difficult to oh.
tain. We are planning for new subma-
rine bases ashore and for new tenders
for submarines. The perfection of the
submarine and the construction of a
large number Of additional ones NAV
be said to be receiving most earnest
consideration by naval experts and ma
val statesmen.
Second.-Thc European wal has en-
phasiZed the value of air craft as Il
naval aid. The last congress recognized
the Importance of air craft and gave us
$1.O0O,oOO to begin a fleet of scouts in
the air. We have established at the
abandoned navy yard at Pensacola an
aeroplane station with school for in.
struction and shops to repair machines.
and the construction officers will soon
nave completed the plans for the con-
struction Of our %aeroplanes at pensa-
cola. Important experiments are being
made at the navy yard in Washing
Ton. | had made contracts to buy hy-
uroaeroplancs in Germany and i'm
France just before wal was declared.
These cannot be secured now. But we
have placed orders also with home
companies II are buying all types
mat are suitable for our service made
by American manufacturing concerns.
Ihlrd.-Thc need of fast cruisers has
been emphasized. The general board
and construction officers are now busy
discussing the character of fast cruis-
ers and battle cruisers. Our policy in
the navy hitherto has becn to sacrifice
speed to armor and guns. Now we see
the need, if necessary, of sacrificing
armor to speed. We must have ships
that III heavy seas can make forty
Knots. The types are yet to be deter
mined upon.
These are the big things the big war
has emphasized as the Immediate need
in our naval program.
