THAT CHEERFUL FRIEND

When all the world seems kind o.
wrong,
And things amt going right,
And when you've got the blues SO bad
You'd most give up the fight,
Your cheerful friend comes down the
street;
His features seem to shine;
He greets you with these words: "By
George,
Old chap, you're lookin' fine!"
You've simply got to tone up then,
No matter how you feel;
The world takes on a different look;
A smile begins to steal
Across your beaming countenance;
The very air is wine;
You pass on with the knowledge that
by George, you're lookin' f1ne!"
You soon forget your aches an pains
1t puts you back in tune;
If there's any better tonic.
1t would be earth's greatest boon
The friend who slaps you on the back
With gusto half divine,
And says to you, by George. old
chap,
You're looking simply fine!"

should be ascertained twice a month
with Babcock tester. It takes about
one-half minute day to weigh the
milk of each COW and record the
weight. An hour twice q month will
make Babcock test for butterfat Of
the milk of each COW. The necessity
for weighing and testing for butter
fat is that while cows may have the
proper dairy formation of their
bodies, they may have been misman-
aged as calves or later SO as to make
them Improbable.
Such tests pay. A dairyman was
making a moderate profit from his
herd. He decided to test each COW -
recommended above. At the end of
the year he found that one COW had
returned 54 cents for each dollars
worth of feed eaten through the year.

An Everyday Revenue

H. M. Cottrell, agricultural COM
missioner of the Rock Island lines
has the following to say on dairying.
speaking of that business as "the
everyday revenue producer"
1.-The dairy business is one line of
farming that furnishes daily cash
income throughout the year. One
strong objection to the man with
limited means is the length of time it
takes to turn his money. A grocer
turns over most of his stock every
sixty days and much of it every thirty
days. The man starting to raise hors-
es has to wait four or five years be-
fore he can make sales to advantage.
1t takes two to three years to raise
beef cattle and market them. Sheep
and hogs properly managed make
cash returns twice year, the Dairy
Cow every day.
The crops that force a high milk
yield are alfalfa, the clovers, cowpeas
and Spanish peanuts. These crops
increase the fertility of the land and
the manure from the cows increases
the crop yield. The longer good dairy
methods are followed on farm, the
more productive the soil becomes.
Good dairy cows, we'll fed and pro-
perly managed return good profits
everywhere in the Southwest and
South. A man who knows how to
select a profitable dairy COW and who
will raise for her the right feeds can
make a gross income of SIS COW a
year from every COW in the herd. This
will be the cash return for his labor
and the feed and the average family
can raise the feed and handle twenty
cows. In this way the family may
have cash income of $1,000 a year
besides good living.
The great recent advantage in
dairying has been the introduction
of efficient low priced milking ma
chimes. These machines take the
|drudgery out of the dairy business.
One person with a machine can milk
twenty to twenty-five cows an hour.
The machines can be installed for as
low as 5000, not including power.

never fail in his section will keep
the cows furnishing steady cash in
come thru the winter. Every family
who goes to the Southwest to build
a home should take 10 good dairy
cows with them. Every family who
moves to the South should arrange
to buy 10 good cows to be delivered
the day the family arrives in the new
home.
The Man
The man to make the most profits
from a dairy herd must be a gentle
mankind, considerate. progressive,
intelligent. Milk Is the product of
motherhood. The COW is a mother
and gives milk to develop the life Of
her baby. the calf. The dairy COW,
to be made most productive. must
have the care and consideration due
to every animal mother. She must
have milk producing feed and feed
that will develop fully her unborn
calf while she is milking. She must
have bodily comfort-shelter, water,
salt. shade in hot weather, and pure
air all the time. She must be petted
When a man takes her calf away from
the cow and milks her, he becomes
for the time to her happy when she
| is giving milk to it. The more the
dairyman can pet his cows, make
them comfortable and make them
like him as they do their calves, the
more milk they will give and the
richer will be the milk. This sounds
like gust" but is cold business truth
that closely followed will bring
prifits.
The Cow
The dairy COW is a machine that
takes the bulky and coarse farm crops
which she combines into high priced
milk. The more efficient the machine
and the better it is operated the larg-
est the returns. Here is where two
thirds of the men who milk cows
in the United States fail. They milk
cows that are Just cows instead Of
cows that are efficient milk producing
machines. A leading dairy authority,
after years of widely conducted in
vestigation along this particular line,
says that one-third of all the cows
MIXED in the United States are kept
at a loss, one-third barely pay for
their feed and the other third return
a profit to their owners.
A dairy COW converts into milk the
materials absorbed by her body from
her food. Many cows that are MIXED
convert part of the digested portion
of the food into milk and part into
flesh. That portion that goes to make
flesh yields no profit while the ow is
being milked. A very large number
of cows that are being MIXED give
only moderate supply of milk and
do not put only moderate suT

Railway

The great advantage the dairy COW
gives the average farmer is the op-
portunity to market through her at
a high price large quantities OF bulky
farm products that have slow sale
or are not salable. The farmers
chief interest and most Of his cash in
come may come from raising staple
crops like corn, wheat or cotton. To
secure the largest yield of any of
these crops. to reduce the cost of pro-
duction and to employ his teams and
implements to the most profitable
extent through the year. he is obliged
to raise large acreage of legumin-
GUS crops like alfalfa, the clovers,
cowpeas or Spanish peanuts. Forage
crops like cane, the kafirs and Sudan
grass can be raised at little cost either
as second crops. where poor stands
of staple crops have been secured and
for fields that are found every year
on most farms that have to be planted
late. These fertilizing and forage
crops can be marketed at good pro-
fit through dairy cows and another
profit be secured from the manure.
The dairy COW is the salvation of
the family with little money who goes
to new country. The settler can set
up his stove and bed in the new home
and while his wife is getting supper,
he can milk the cows and separate
the cream with a cheap hand separa-
tor. The next morning he can milk
the COWS and separate the cream
while his wife is getting breakfast.
That morning he can sell the cream
from the two milkings, starting a
weekly cash income within "a hours
of his arrival in the new home. Ma
tive grasses will feed the cows thru
the summer and forage crops that

TARIFF NUGGETS

1 Henry d. Estabrook, New York
lawyer who has gained distinction as
a speaker and writer on the Tariff
questions, says:
1T is astonishing what chronic.
intransitive, ever-recurring problem
the Tariff seems to be in this country.
Other questions are given their quie-
tus in single election, but the Tariff
! is ever with us. And yet once heard
Mckinley declare that the difference
between those who believe In Tariff
for revenue only and those who be-
lieve in Tariff for Protection had
for If you would give him a Tariff
that produced the running expense
OF the government. it would be all the
Protection he, as high Protection. st,
would ever ask for. Consider that
statement, Mckinley made it. and he
was no dreamer"
"That is Just what the Tariff is
la barbedwire fence-a peculiarly
American invention--under which
no foreign sheep may crawl without
leaving a tuft of wool sticking as a
memento of his trespass.
'If Tariff is Inherently wicked.
why not. on high moral grounds,
abolish all Tariffs? II high Tariff
is grand larceny. why compromise on
petit larceny? In my opinion tax
on the privilege of trade with an alien
rather than with your neighbor is q
Just and righteous tax"
"Our government has among its
several States and Territories the
largest Free-Trade Of any nation in
the world; but 1t is a trade based on
an equality of lost production, on
American standards of compensa-
tion."
