Nature The Designer.

There was certain college pro-

nature and correct design. Boys -

take, and the more we study his
work. the better machine we will
build. When you put your legs un-

you can-don't get too much over

Have Heifers Freshen Early.

Those who are having their first
experience with cattle of dairy breed
ing are sometimes at a loss to know
how early it is desirable to have the
young heifers freshen. Dairy bred
cattle, especially the smaller breeds
develop earlier than do half-bred cat
tie. While there is some difference
of opinion as to how early dairy heif-
ers should freshen, it is generally
considered that they should be
brought into the milking herd for the
first time at about 2 years of age.
They may not make quite so good
growth during the next year when
milking begins at this early age, but
they are more likely to become sure
breeders. and it is also generally be-
lieved by dairymen that a high pro-
ducing COW is more likely to result
where the heifer comes into produc.
tion early.
1t is very important during the
first lastation to give the heifer the
best possible chance to maintain a
large flow of milk throughout theh
period. ! must be remembered that
the heifer OF this age should make
more growth. and in the feeding this
must be taken into consideration. To

Self Help Is Best,


The disadvantages of farming as
practiced in the Southwest is that i,
requires the farmer to produce the
raw materials and depend upon the
others to convert these into finished
products; it makes an unskilled la
borer Of the farmer and places a pre-
MUM upon the skill and labor of
those who manufacture and handle
farm products; it causes waste and
other heavy cost to fall upon the la
Dor Of the producer and requires the
consumer to pay this, thus limiting
consumer,
As George w. Russell expresses it,
our system forces farmers to sell at
wholesale and buy at retail and gives
him the privilege of controlling nei-
ther purchasing nor marketing, but
requires him to pay what is asked
and 10 sell for what is offered.
Instead Of selling grain and hay
crops we should sell butter or cheese
and get the benefit of the higher
price for manufacturing and the by
products. Instead of selling corn,
Kafr, milo and other grains we
should sell bacon, hams, sausage, beef
mutton, etc. Canned, preserved and
evaporated fruits should be market
ed, not the perishable green fruits
where so many things contribute to
waste and deterioration.
But we have no one to blame for
these disadvantages and losses but
ourselves. So long as we depend upon
others for skilled labor, for market
ing methods, for doing for us what
we could do cheaper for ourselves we
may expect to pay the price.
We must bring the farm and the
factory nearer to gether; the market
must not be so far removed from the
farm; the consumer must get closer
to the producer and the men who help
us reach the consumer must render
economic, indispensable service.
Leaders of farmers organizations
will find their best field of endeavor,
not in politics nor state and county
Offices, but in encouraging and Or
ganizing creameries, bacon factories,
abbatoirs, elevators, selling associa-
tions, etc. Farmers must themselves
take the initiative. Help will come to
those who help themselves, if it ever
comes Most farmers have learned
that government and state help are
too expensive since the cost must be
paid very largely by those who live on
farms.
We can get more for our labor if
we will use our intelligence more, de-
pend upon others less and the politi-
clans not at all.

Victor Blues Feat.

Rear Admiral Victor Blue is chiei
of the bureau of navigation in the
Navy Department. The men of the
navy are within his jurisdiction
Three of his deeds during the wal
with Spain have become part of the
history of the Nation.
There is a minor event to his cred
it, however, OF which there has been
no mention. 1t shows what he can
do with a gun. Blue was a Lieuten-
ant when the Maine was sunk i'm the
harbOr of Havana and was sent to sea
on the Suwanee, an auxiliary gunboat
bound for Cuban waters.
On July /, 1895, the Spanish fort
and rife pits at Aguaderes were
shelled by some of Simpsons ships
as a cover for the advance of the left
flank of the American army toward
Santiago. After the way had been
cleared for Gen. Skaters infantry
and cavalry Admiral Sampson sig
nailed his ships to stop firing.
The little Suwanee was 1900
yards distant from the fort and had
been using a 4-inch gun. Capt. De-
lehanty signalled back to Sampson
asking permission to knock down the
flag, which was still flying on the
fort. The permission was granted
and Lieut.. Blue sighted the gun.
Three shots were fired. The first
rent the flag, the second struck the
flagstaff near its base, inclining IL
about twenty degrees from the verti-
cal. and the third shot away both the
flag and staff.
The feat was so remarkable that
