Etlitor Vitutreri t the H imm uot office as see- THTKSCAY, Ja-TI'AEY 4, The pops in the senate are reported as having decided to oppose the Wilson bill. It must be that some of their frietls told them what to do. It did not take the jury long in the case of the murderer of Mayor Harrison of Chicago, to decide that be was a tit subject for the gallows. There should be as little delay as possible in carrying out the details of the affair. The most fashionable thing of late in railroad circles appears to be to pass into the hands of receivers. It seems that hard times effect such institutions about as much as they do any class of business institutions, unless it be the banks. It is said that the arrangements are completed and that a sugar factory will be erected at Omaha in tiie near future. It is to cost about $700,000 and contracts will be made for furnishing it with six thousand acres of beets next season. The beet industry is gaining ground and friends in Nebraska rijht along. Ar rangements have been made in Sheridan . county to grow two hundred acres of beets next season to be shipped to Kor- folk and other localities are preparing to take similar action. There is little doubt that in a few years the sugar and dairy industries will work a great change in the resources of this state. It is hoped that the delegation in con gress will see that everything is done that can be to prevent any legislation being passed w hich Is unfriendly to the development of the sugar interests in Nebraska. We devjte considerable space agaio this week to creamery notes taken from the Albion Sew as the people of this lo cality are a good deal interested in that , subject. la addition to what appears elsew here we wrote to the editor of that paper and learned that the average price of land in the vicinity of Albion is f20 per acre; that the pastures theie are mostly wild grass; that coal costs them ?4.26 per ton; that there is anotlier creamery within 5 miles of the one at Albion and also one within fifteen miles; and that the average number of cows from which the milk was f urnislied was about 400. When it is considered that 'the fuel here would be much cheaper, that the pasture and hay land would not even cost taxes and that the grasses here ore much superior to those in the loca ity mentioned and that barns and sheds can be built with little or no expense here, some idea of the profits which our farmers would get by selling milk to a creamery can be had. It is a subject which proves more desirable the more it is investigated, and no more suitable place can be found than at Harrison. Good, mum. The following from the editorial in the January number of Omiy'g magazine has tlie right tone and a good deal of good sense: "It is the real life that you lead, and not that which is hidden from the world, which makes its impression upon those -. men and women with whom you come in contact. A man cannot live a lie and not be detected in it. He may some times live for years with a cloak about hint, enveloping the dark side of his na ture, but sooner or later the mask will be torn away, and the true man re- . realed. There are those who live double lives, who, like the characters in Steven Ma's famous English novel, have the extremes of good ami evil in their na tures, but, for the sake of humankind in general, let us be thankful Una they are few and far between. Much as the mor alists may attempt to argue to the con trary, there few lives so evil that there in not a iso some-good. You will have to search for a long time for Ue man or woman who is totally depraved. Cir cumstances, opportunities, lack of op portunities, or chance, go far toward moulding our lives for good or evil. Start out to the right way, deal justly and hoowtly with all men; be true to yourself, aod, as the poet has said, you cannot be false to any man. There is a great text in this, one from which many sermons have been preached, aod one Which will bear being used through all time. There are too many people today influenced by our rapid and feverish mod of life, wIkj have not the strength of character and courage to live open, hooMt lives, laying their hearts and tfoada open to the world so they may be seen as ia a mirror. But we must do jut this, if wa would be honest with 0 ml res and with oar fellow man. This vary boMrtjr of purport aod aUvagtb of character ara the two de lta that make or mar the live of .First, m sure you ara right, that your purpose aad ambitions la life ara Msb aad noble; aad, oeos knowing yon am la to right, prow forward so your 1 najr ha a aoaroa of help a 1 to those about you." More Creamery Note. Albion New. Studying the tabic. 4 given in la-" week's issue of tlie tv a t:keu fr.jni Ue books of the creamery company several interesting facts are br juglit out which are worthy of note. We find ttvit tlie average price paid for milk during the six months was 76c per hundred, while the average price paid for uusalted butter was but Hjc It is claimed by the manager of the creamery that on an average 100 pounds of milk will make four pounds of butter, which at 76c per hundred is equal to 19c per pound, mak ing a difference of 4C in favor of tlie selling of the milk. Another thing to be taken into con sideration also is the fact that w here tlie milk is sjld the only labor attached to it is that of milking. No straining of the milk, no skimming of cream, no wash ing of the oans or cans, no burning. Someone may say lie cannot afford to take his small quantity of milk to the creamery. This may be true, but you can hire it hauled for 12c or 14o a hun dred aod still save all the work und some money. Anotlier saving is in the uuuisuted fact tliat the separator makes more but ter than is possible by the churn from the same amount of milk. We will not discuss this point because it is so easily demonstrated and acknow ledged as to make it useless. . Some say that they cannot sell tlieir milk to the creamery aud raise their calves on the skimmed ruiik. Here in the first place is an implied acknowledge ment that the separator does get all the butter, and per contrary, that the churn does not. We are glad we are able to present olt readers w ith the testimony of men here in our midst whose veracity is without question, and even if it was not they have the calves on the farm to show for themselves. W. W. Baker, of Loretto, who milked 18 cows during the period spoken of, raised 1") calves from tins kind of milk, and who says that they are good enough to bring $10 a head at this time. We give you his letter, which is dictated from his actual experieuc: There ure qaite number ol men I find ho suy they cannot raix calve mid sell tlieir milk to the creamery, tmt I say Hiey csu. My culves nre here for liippertiou. anil a better lot of calves connot tie found in the county, ruiMft by band. They had new milk until one month old. and then I put a little oil meal in It, and when a little older taught them toeal out. Some say that they will not drink the returned creamery 111IIU, but If fed sweet there will be no trouble on that score. I know this milk business will pay the farmer here in this county, if the cow have projier care and feed. I have taken partlculur care to find out and have kept a book account of all expense, ho that I speak from a knowledge gained by experience. I Khali milk double the number of cow this coming season. Wishing the creamery company every sueceu, I remain your renuectlully, V. '. 11AKEH. From the table used last week we find that for the six mouths his cows paid hint f'2")6 in milk; and 13 calves worth $10 r head, or f l."0. Total in cash of 100, or an average of $27 per head. Again, let us look at A. C. Mead's record. In the first place he has a herd of full-blood Holsteins. As the records show his 10 cows brought him $275, or an average of 27.50 in milk and nine calves raised, which ut common scrub stock prices are worth $10 a head, which added to the milk make the average earnings of his cows $37.50 per head. Do you see a point here? No moie work, no more feed to care for a cow that will bring $37.50 than the one tliat brings $27. Blood will tell. Mr. Mead values his calves at thoroughbred prices, or at $170. A, B. Johnson milked on an average through the six months 13 cows, but we notice that his credit at the factory was greater in November than any other month, as he now has several fresh cows and is receiving $1 jier hundred for his milk. Ten of these cows he bought lat spring, as soon as trie creamery was an assured fact, for $19 a head. He sold from the 13 cows milk to the amount of $253.54 and raised 14 calves equal 10 a head, or $140. Total $403.54, or an average of $31 a head. Remember he only paid $19 per head for 10 of them and they have brought him in the six months $31 a head, or in other words he has made' one hundred and sixty-three per cent on his investment Do you consider this a good specula tion? While you cannot now buy cows at $19 per head, yet any of the men thut we have so far mentioned would have been able to pay $30 a head and pay for them inside of a year. If a man could buy a farm on time and pay for it from the product of one year's lalior on it, many a man would own a farm of his own before another New Year rolled around, yet that is just what these men have made their cows do for them during this last year. Perhaps our bankers have hardly been able to take $30 and make it bring them interest enough during the year to equal $30. We have of course left out the item of cost of keeping, but we have also left out four months of profit from each cow. Mr. Johnson say s tliat some of his cows are now in their ninth month of milking. As to his present mode of feeding he says: I sin now feeding to these cows K pound of ground oats and corn, mixed with 10 poundaof whent bran; timothy hay In the morning; three pound of beeU to each eaw and hwUnee of ration Is corn 11 talk. They are tied In a warm barn at night, milked at six o'clock In the morning and seven lit night. I think the milk from the creamery vkea ted to pigs la equal to the feed eon wined by the cows, a It nuke a mix ml r.itton Jan sack as is needed for yonng atgs. 1 aball Increase aiy milking eapanity this prlag teSleow.
