Terrific Waste of Natural Gas.
Natural gas /Efficient to light the
streets and homes, heat the buildings
and turn the factory wheels of every
enterprise in Chicago, St. Louis and
New Orleans is going to waste in the
Caddo gas and oil fields near Shreve
port, La., at the rate of 100,000,000 cu
bic feet a day. Gas is rushing from the
bowels of the earth through two wild
wells and over fifty gas and oil wells
left uacapped. The crater of one wild
well covers over two acres. The atten
tion of President Roosevelt has been
attracted to conditions and by his or
der all public lands lying in Caddo and
Bossier parishes have been withdrawn
from entry until the government may
take what steps are deemed necessary
to stop the terrific waste and preserve
what is conceded to be the greatest
gas field in the western hemisphere.
In the meantime, says the Technical
World Magazine, the city of Shreve
port is thronged with oil investors
from every section of the country, rival
claims have been filed on Sovern
inent lands near the oil wells, the price
of real estate has reached heretofore
unheard of figures, men who a few
months ago held nothing but a few
scant acres of cut-over pine lands now
count their wealth by the thousands,
and armed guards stand watch over
ground which is claimed under various
acts and entries applicable to the se
curing of public lands. This territory
is underlaid with two strata of gas
sand, averaging from 40 to 140 feet in
width, the first 800 to 900 feet beneath
the surface and the second lying be
tween 1.S00 and 2,200 feet. The gas
sands show their greatest width at
Morningsport, which lies in the more
southern portion of the field.

ior QUAD 3EEORE QUAKE
jring of 1906 the last of the
lings of Stanford university
ly nearing completion, since
of the corner-stone in 1887,
of construction had been
unceasing. First came the
raugle, upon the completion
he university was formally
the public. Then the outer
, an imposing array of
i lit- iwo architectural triumphs of
the university, however, were those
which marked the front and center of
the quadrangles—the Memorial Arch
and the Memorial Church. The for
mer, rising 100 fee-t above the en
trance to the quadrangles, and bearing
the heroic frieze by St. Gaudens por
traying the “Progress of'- Civilization
in America,” was a memorial to Ice
land Stanford. Jr whose name is per
petuated in that of the university.
The church, the most wonderful struc
ture of its kind in America, was
erected by Mrs. Stanford, as the
legend above its doors stated, “To
the glory of God and in loving mem
ory of niv husband, Leland Stanford.”
And then in the gray dawn of that
memorable April IS, 1906, the campus
writhed and shuddered in the grip of
the terrific earthquake, and the splen
did buildings which had cost years of
time and millions of money to con
struct were ruthlessly shattered in a
moment.
comparatively mtio lias been pub-1
Iished, however, concerning the work
of reconstruction which has since
been steadily going forward. Inquiries
are constantly made as to the extent
to which reconstruction has been ac
complished, and also as to the pres
ent condition of various buildings.
For the benefit of those who have
not been able to gain definite informa
tion concerning the present condition
of the university, the following facts
are presented.
The earthquake was on Wednesday,
April 18, at a few minutes past five
in the morning. By nine o'clock a
notice was posted on the bulletin
boards, signed by President Jordan,
stating that all university work would
be suspended until Friday morning, in
order that the engineering experts
might examine and report upon the
condition of the damaged buildings.
When Friday morning came, it was
announced that the damage was so
far-reaching that no more work would
be attempted that semester, but that
the fall term would oi>en in August as
usual. Students were accordingly dis
missed to their homes, and the recon
struction of Stanford was begun, un
der the direction of a commission of
engineers.
The architecture of the university
had been of two main types. The
quadrangles were an adaptation of the
California mission architecture, hav
ing wide arcades, paved courts, and
low, tiled roofs. Of these buildings,
which contained practically all the
class rooms of the university, those in
the outer quadrangle suffered the
most damage, since they were all
more than one story in height. None
of them, however, were injured be
yond repair, and to them the author
ities first turned their attention. All
of these buildings are now completely
restored, the last step in the recon
struction being the placing of a fire
proof roof upon the Thomas Welton
library building, situated in the right
half of the principal facade. This
building, which was to have been
made the law libnrry upon the com
pletion of the new building, will now
be used as the general library for
some years to come.

been constructed since the earthquake,
most of them being devoted to the
engineering and woodworking depart

the other engineering buildings in the
rear cf the outer quadrangle.
mdndous energy is by measuring the
amount of heat which its rays are
capable of generating; and, further,
by our knowledge of the relation
which exists between heat and me
chanical work, we are able to es
timate the amount of work which the
suu is capable of doing, and also the
quantity of energy it must be losing
year by year.
By suitable arrangements we can
cause a certain quantity of its rada
tion to be absorbed by water or othei
substance, and note the rise of tem
perature which results, and, as we
know the mechanical equivalent of
each degree of temperature in water,
it is only a matter of calculation to
arrive at a knowledge of the sun's
total energy. Like everything else
connected with this wonderful body,
figures give us no adequate concep
tion of its vast energy, and various il
lustrations have been used by differ
ent investigators.
Thus Herschel considered it in rela
tion to the quantity of ice which it
would melt in a given time, and states
that the amount of heat which the
earth receives when the sun is over
bad would melt an inch thickness of
ice in 2 hours and 13 minutes.
Another scientist uses an even more
striking illustration. He says; "If we
cculd buiid tip a solid column of ice
from the earth to the sun, two miles
and a quarter in diameter, spanning the
inconceivable abyss of 93,000,000
miles, and if then the suu should con
centrate its power upon it, it would
dissolve and melt, not in an hour, nor
in a minute, but In a single second;
one swing of the pendulum and it
would be water; seven more seconds
and it would be dissipated in vapor.”
Of course, of this enormous quanti
ty of heat the earth receives but a
small fraction. The rest, except what
the other heavenly bodies receive,
passes away into space and is lost
forever, so far as can be ascertained.
It is by this enormous supply of
energy that the whole world is kept
alive and active. It keeps ns warm,
and drives our steam engines and wa
ter wheels; it circulates our at
mosphere, and brings us rain and
snow.
But It Was Very Long Ago.
A man came into the forest, and
made a petition to the trees, to pro
vide him a handle for his ax. The
trees consented to his request and
gave him a young ash-tree. No soon
er had the man fitted from it a new
handle to his ax than he began to use
it, and quickly felled with his strokes
the noblest giants of the forest. An
old oak, lamenting when too late the
destruction of his companions, said to
a neighboring cedar: "The first step
has lost us all. If we had not given
up the rights of the ash we might yet
have retained our own privileges, and
have stood lor ages.”—Aesop.

RUNNING THE DAIRY
TO PRODUCE A PROFIT
Weed Out the Robber Cows, and Feed the Good Cows Left to
Limit of Their Capacity— By C. M. Smalls.
While the consumption of milk per
capita shows an increase, the number
of cows per capita show a decrease.
This would seem to indicate a marked
improvement in the development of
the dairy cow of the country. Ac
cording to the statisticians there are
21,194,000 miich cows in the country,
aa average of one for every four of
population.
In the decade of 1890 to 1900 the
average production of every dairy
cow showed an increase of 1,000
pounds of milk or a commercial gain
of $211,000,000. Yet with this improve
but also leave a liberal balance for
profit.
The dairyman is entitled to liberal
compensation, as he represents the
most strenuous branch of husbandry.
The dairyman is confined to his work
every day in the year and follows a
branch of live stock industry that
needs methodical, systematic manage
ment. The dairyman is eomoelled to
place business before pleasure or suf
fer serious losses. Regularity in feed
ing and milking is one of the great
secrets of success in the dairy indus
try. Any branch of agriculture that
involves such strenuous effort as dairy

There is no class of farming more
under the control of the proprietor
than dairying. It is a branch of hus
bandry that calls for the exercise of
intelligence and judgment. The me
chant and the manufacturer keep a
record of their transactions and can
toil whether their business is operated
at a profit or loss. The milk producer
can keep a record of his cows and
weed out the unprofitable members
and replace them with better perform

husbandry and show the proprietor
how to increase his profits.
FEEDING THE CALVES
SKIM MILK
By Prof. A. L. Haecker, Nebraska
Agricultural College.
The use of the hand separator has
brought, about the rearing of many
calves on hand separator skim milk.
The calf stanchion is the best equip
ment for calf feeding. This stanchion
should be supplied with a little box
or manger, and the stanchion should
be used both in the calf pen and in
the calf pasture. Care should he used
to feed the skim milk fresh and warm
from the separator, giving small ra
tions in preference to large ones.
With the present prices paid for
butter fat it requires a rich man to
afford his calves the luxury of nurs
ing their dams, and the one who says
he cannot afford the time to milk and
feed calves is either getting a very
large salary or is well enough off so
that he need not economize in this
way. This does not. of course, refer to
the man raising pure-bred beef cattle
or the range conditions. There i£
quite a diversity of opinion in the
method of rearing a calf on skim milk,
and I do not assume that mine is the
only one or that it is particularly bet
ter than others. Hut I have been very
successful in raising calves for the past
20 years and attribute this success
largely to the method employed.
Alter tne cait is removed trom tne
cow it should be given its mother's
milk for a few days, and then any
whole milk will answer, but it is bet
ter to give milk that is low in per
cent, of butter fat than that which is
high. Feed small rations in clean pails.
When the calf is from ten days to two
weeks old it may be changed from
whole milk to skim milk by adding a
small amount of skim milk, say one
fourth, and increasing this per cent,
at each feeding until the change is
made, and the calf is on a skint milk
ration. The skim milk to be the best
for calves should be fresh and warm
from the separator.
Now is the time to start feeding a
butter fat substitute and this may be
given in the milk until the calf is
able to tat ground feed. Oil meal
makes a good cal'' feed and a little
added to the skim milk will answer
the purpose. Here is when the calf
stanchion will come in handy, for
with such an equipment the calf can
be taught to eat grain much earlier, on
account of its being held in front of the
grain and its being free from the an
noyance of the other calves.
A good calf feed may be made by
mixing the following food stuffs: Blood
meal ten pounds, bone meal live
pounds, oil meat 20 pounds, oat meal
20 pounds, corn meal 20 pounds. This
i mixed well together and given In
small rations after the skim milk has
been fed. The calf should also have
free access to water and salt as well
as hay or pasture, as the season may
require. The grain may he changed
to simply corn and oats or bran as
the calf grows older, say after three
months old. In this way good calves
may lie raised in an economic way, and
the valuable butter fat will he saved.
Give Cows Good Care.—The milk of
a cow that produces 10,000 pounds of
milk yearly, and this is possible, con
tains on an average 8,710 pounds of
water, 890 pounds of fat, 4S5 pounds
| of sugar, 840 pounds of proteids or
caseous matter, and 77 pounds of ash.
To produce the above amounts, it is
evident that she must consume succu
lent food and large quantities of water.
In other words, we might say that the
; cow is a machine for transforming the
rougher foods such as fodder, corn,
hay and different grains into the finer
finished product that we call milk and
cream. The efficiency of any machine
depends upon the care it receives. If
every man who keeps cows would se
riously consider what to feed and how
to care for them, it would do more to
increase butter fat production, than
any other two things.
Raising a Calf.—It is an expensive
I proposition to raise a cal? on mii-i at
the present market price. The quan
tity of milk which a calf will require
for its maintenance and growth may
be somewhat reduced by early teach
ing the calf to eat hay. corn, and other
feeds. The young calf will learn to
| eat shelled corn at four or five weeks
of age and hay at the same age or
even earlier. By giving it these feeds
twice daily regularly the milk ration
may be reduced and the calf will.
thrive.
Dehorning Cows.—Do not dehorn
dairy stock after the middle of March
in central latitudes. As soon as green
flies come they- are almost sure to lay
eggs in the wounds which hatch mag
gots. The dehorning itself is a severe
enough shock to the cow, and the rav
ages of maggots will almost finish the
animal. Dehorn as cold weather
comes on, rather than at its close.
Judging the Qualities of a Dairy Cow
i---1
Can a dairy cow Be judged by outward form or by any special character?
There are judges who claim that they can pick out the animals of good dairy
form with a fair degree of assurance that these will be the best milkers.
Other judges, and among these are Prof. Dean, declare that form counts for
little or nothing, and that all depends upon the performance at the pail.
Most practical men, however, would allow themselves to be influenced by the
size and apeparance of th* udder when purchasing a ccw. The development
of the mammary veins is also worthy of note. In the illustration the situa
tion of the veins is indicated by I. I. I. on the udder. The extensions of iheSe
veins along the abdomen are indicated F. F., and the branches by B.

STYLE THAT ALL WELCOME
Combination Lingerie Both Comfort
able and Suitable to the
Present Fashion.
The work of making lingerie is very
much lightened this season by com
bining three pieces in one. The slim
as well as the stout woman approves
of this plan. After a woman has worn
the three-piece combination, which
fastens down the front, is without
belts, draw strings, plaits or gathers,
she cannot return with satisfaction to
wearing the three separate pices.
The new garment is worn over the
corset, which is placed over a thin
lisle-thread skirt or a knee-length com
bination suit.
The latter is more acceptable than
any other garment under the corset.
The shirt cannot be kept down. ;ind
wrinkles around the e.lge of the cor
set, making a ridge that shews
through the outer skirt.
Dressed in this fashion, a woman is
more comfortable than she ever has
been. Her underclothes are reduced
to minimum weight, her waist line is
natural and not made larger by
strings, buttons and belts, and the lack
of petticoats gives her greater free
dom in walking.
DRESS FOR SMALL CHILD.
Here is a dainty little dress in
sream nun's veiling. The pretty
shaped opening at neck is edged with
silk galloon; a set of pin tucks are
made in centre of front below opening,
and also round the foot of skirt; the
armholes are edged by galloon.
The little slip or blouse, which is
separate, is in cream spotted silk, fin
ished at the neck and elbow by a nar
row frill. A colored sash is worn be
low waist.
Materials required: 2 yards veiling

Convenient Sewing Basket.
Convenient sewing basket is a wil
ow clothes hamper lined with cheese
cloth of a pretty shade of deep blue or
violet, or cretonne of a dainty pattern.
Pockets of various sizer, are stitched
o the lining to hold patterns, thread,

arger pockets for patterns are stitched
tear the bottom of the basket, while
‘he smaller ones are near the lop.
rhc cover of the hamper Is padded
vith cotton apd covered with the same
naterial with which it is lined. This
nakes the cushion lor pins and
leedles. A sewing basket of (his
cind will hold a larger quantity of sew
ng than any ordinary sewing basket;
t is easily covered from the dust,
ooks neat, occupies small sraee on the
'cor, and is convenient to reach while
sitting at the sewing table or machine.
Cotton to Be Worn.
Gowns of coarse cotton not em
sroidered in a heavy crude darning
stitch are to hr worn in not only white,
aut colors. They are made over china
ir other soft silks or even thin cotton
if glossy finish.
i WHITE NOW IN HIGH FAVOR
Color No Longer Regarded as Suitab e
to Youth Alone Is Sure to 3e
Much Worn.
A growing inclination to wear white
is apparent. White was once regarded
as the special privilege of youth. Now.
with a clearer knowledge of the Tallies
of color and a better realization of the
iinjiortauee of surrounding, one in
dulges one's natural tastes. Perhaps
the influence of the period under
which fashion is passing has some
thing to do with this, for the women
who amused themselves at Trianon
used white freely and without stint.
Be that as it may. white gowns, and
white generally, will be more worn
this coming season than ever. White
cloth in a variety o£ makes, satin
charmeuse, the cashmere and white
serge, in an infinite variety of quali
ties and thicknesses, will come in for
much attention from artists in dress.
As to the lingerie gown, its import
ance in the wardrobe cannot be ques
tioned. It is one of the most useful
I tilings to have and, whether worn out
j side or indoors, permits so much in
; dividual taste and charm in contrast
| that it is quite indispensable.
Attractive Empire Combs
Empire combs have come back with
the empire coiffures, and in Paris and
i London there has been a rage for the
I genuine combs of the period, very
iiigh prices being paid in many casts
for the antiques. Even where the
stones used are not real gems, the de
sign and workmanship often give real
value to these combs; but excellent re
productions have been made from
many of the most attractive empire
designs, and these will content the
woman who does not care to spend a
large sum upon an ornament which is
Ifkelv to be but a passing fad. Denies s
in antiques tell us, however, that
have sold a number of the genuine
old combs, chiefly in dull gilt, and
pearls.—American Register. London
Tight Sleeves and Low Collars.
Women whose arms are either verv
full or very thin dislike the revela
