and interested in farming, the daily
drudgery would be largely reduced,
and increased profits would result.
The milk house is an important part
of the dairy that is often limited or
overlooked entirely. Milk should be
kept clean, covered and cold, and the
chances for doing this are limited I'M
less a convenient milk house is con-
structed. The cleaning of dairy uten.
sls Is an irksome task, unless some
preparation is made for doing this
work. The cost of a small milk house
is very little. Milking machines have
been accredited with varying degrees
of success; in general, observation
would tend to show that while the
milking machine can be made "a sue
cess, it requires close observation and
attention in order to keep it clean
and in running order.
There is no factor that helps more
in producing good milk than does the
use Of ice. Simple, inexpensive ice
houses can be constructed if arrange
ments for obtaining the ice can be
made.
The selection OF the site for dairy
buildings is important and expert adj
vice should be obtained before opera
lions are started. Careful considera-
ton should be given to the arrange
ment of plans, which may mean the
loss of hours of labor in a month be-
! cause of the amount of time and la
Dor necessary to care properly for the
dairy COW. Plans and specifications
furnished by the United States dairy
division can be secured from the dairy
department Of the university extern
sion division at Boise, Idaho. These
plans have been formed as a result
of the experience gained in all sec
tons and under all conditions. These
include plans for barns, milk houses
silos, manure pits, water trOughs, ice
houses. etc. Bulletins on the various
subjects also have been published
which may be obtained free by writ
ing the extension division. Instance:

OUTLINES
IRISH PROPOSALS
WILL COMBAT ANY STEP At
SECESSION, DECLARES
LLOYD GEORGE.
Two ParIiaments for ireland contem
plated, With Full Constituent Pow
ers to Create a Single Irish
Legislature.

LOndOn.-Premier Lloyd George out.
lined the governments proposals for
Ireland in long statement in the
house of commons on December D.
Speaking with great deliberatiOn and
emphasis, he declared:
Great Britain can not accept sep
aratiOn. The people who think Brit
ain can be forced into it have not read
the story Of the last five years."
The premier began by remarking
upon the extreme difficulty of the task
-"difficult indeed" he said. after
such a discreditable outrage as has
just been perpetrared at Dublin"
He characterized the attempt on
ViscOunt French. the lord lieutenant
OF Ireland, as one of the most coward
ly and foolish incidents in the history
of political crime. He was glad the
chiefs of the Catholic church had has
tened to denOunce it.
Reviewing the position Of Irish at
fairs he said that nobody in Ireland
| wanted the act of 1916. In the exist
ing circumstances no possible scheme
for Irish home rule was universally
acceptable and parliament must as
sumo the responsibility and propose
what it thought fair and just.
A settlement would be found. not in
the enactment but in the working of
a home rule scheme. He admitted that
plenty of mistakes had been made on
Doth sides, there were also fOllies and
crimes.
But" he added. 1--WE want that
chapter clOsed-not to ask who is TO
blame but to set matters right
The governments new bill provides
briefly for the creation of two legisla.
lures in Ireland with full constituent,
powers to create a single Irish legis
lature to discharge all powers no
specifically reserved to the ilnperia
parliament. A clause in the bill vii
protect the rights of minorities. TIL,
question of uniting these two Irisl
legislatures into one body rests will
the Irish people, the consent of the i'm
perial parliament not being required.
1t was an Intensely interested hous
that listened as the premier outlines
the governments proposals which. h
said, would be embodied in a bill an
presented at the next session of parlia
nfent.
From the two proposed parliament
in Ireland, one of the Catholics in tn
south and the other for the Protestant
of the north and east. council will b
selected, which. it is hoped. eventual
will bring about a union of the Who'll
country under single parliament.
