Train Dairy Cows Properly.

Dairy cows very easily acquire
bad habits. These are almost in-
variably the result of bad manage
ment on the part Of the milker or
caretaker. A writer in the Jersey
Bulletin says:
"A nervous COW will very quick
ly and easily acquire the undesire-
able trait Of kicking, depending on
how she is handled. During the
hot season when the COW is pester-
ed with flies she has good cause to
be irritable and will kick to dis.
lodge the flies without the least
intention of meanness, if unprotect-
ed. Then if her mixer loses his
temper and bangs her with the
milk stool, she will kick again,
quite legitimately. and if this per-
formance is continued from day to
day, or even occasionally, she soon
becomes a regular kicker.
Then in cold weather if the
mixer grabs at the teats and starts
milking harshly, the COW will nat.
urally kick, and ten to one her
foot lands in the bucket. Perhaps
a fight begins, but who is to blame
One could hardly lay it to the COW
in either case.
The good milker and the most
efficient handler of dairy cows we'll
knows that such treatment is not
only inhuman but improbable.
He knows that the COW and her
career for good or bad are quite at
his mercy, and he acts accordingly
by treating her with. gentleness,
using good judgement in training
her, and caring for her in a way
that adds to her welfare and pro-
ductiveness and to his pleasure and
profit as we'll Kansas Farmer.

VarletIes Of The Peanut.

Roughly speaking, three varieties OF
peanut are grown in this country-red,
white and Spanish. The white, the
most important variety, has nut with
two kernels with pink skins; Its vine
spreads along the ground, in this re-
spect unlike that Of the red variety,
which grows more upright and in O
bunch. The pod of the red nut holds
three and sometimes four kernels, and
has deep red skin. The Spanish is q
much smaller nut, with lighter skin
and milder flavor than either Of the
others possesses. The entire crop Is
shelled and used especially in the con
fection known as nougat.

How Prohibition Has Grown.

How Prohibition Has Grown.
One of the best examples of the
growth and power of an idea is to
be found in an analysis of the recent
election. The reference, Of course,
is to prohibition. In the national
Congress today, out of 435 men,
bers of the Lower House and nine
ty-six members of the Senate, there
is only one man who describes him.
self officially in the congressional
directory as Prohibitionist. In-
cidentally. he comes from Califor-
MIA, one of the two states which
went anti,prohibition in the recent
election. His name is Charles
Hiram Randall aud he represents
part of Los Angeles.) So far as
our recollection goes, in previous
Congresses there was never any
member who was sent to Congress
as Prohibitionist, And yet pro-
hibition has been growing until
today it prevails with more than
90 per cent of the population Of
the country and over IS per of the
area. A good deal of credit be-
longs to a party which can achieve
this without ever casting more
than negligible vote for Presi-
dent. (The Prohibitionist vote for
President this year was only about
third Of a million.) Of course it
has been sticking Ito single idea
year In and year out for nearly two
generations that has done it. And
we feel like taking off our hats to
the lone leaders of this party. For
them the honors and emoluments
OF office have been rendered I'M
possible by the very fact of their
Identification with the Prohibition
lists. The very thing for which
most politicians work we're scarifed
in advance by those who took up
prohibition leadership. This is
probably good place at which to
recall to a hurried and fast-forget-
ting world that probably the most
powerful, individual force in the
propagation of prohibition in
America died only last summer.

Furlong was at first furrow long,

The Princeton union. [volume] (Princeton, Minn.) 1876-1976, 1917-02-15

A number Of good people have been
all a furne Of late because Uncle Sam
licenses, drinking places in dry ter
ritory. The Duluth Herald points out
that the Federal government licenses
no saloons at all. It does tax every
drinking place, and the so-called Ii
cense is merely receipt showing that
the tax has been paid. Payment of
this tax does not exempt any person
from prosecution under state laws.
The Herald concludes it's editorial
thusly:
So when people demand that the
government quit licensing blind pigs
to operate. in defiance Of state or local
laws, what they are really asking is
that the government distinguish be-
tween licensed and unlicensed drink
ing places, taxing the former and let
ting the latter go tax free. Which
would be singularly stupid thing to
do
