Tills Held Is tho pri

by men who keep
them not as a nourco of prollt,
but nlco pleasure. A great many
of our rich mon ore buying
farms near their city of rcsldcnco and
stocking them with cows of the best
breeds. Theso men wish to plqco their
farms In charge of mon who havo a
thorough Knowledge; of farm dairying
and stock raising, and aro willing to
pay a good prl.co for tho sorvlces of such
mon. Tho wages offered aro abovo
those of the average accountant, teach
er or clerk, and tho occupation Is
more enjoyable to ono who has a lovo
for rural life. To be successful In this
lino a young man must bo of good
habits, neat and orderly, and capilblo
of turning to tho bcBt account tho la
bor of men under his charge, must havo
,a knowledge of up to date farming and
n thorough understanding of tho breed

from being overstocked with suitable

men, ono to superintend tho farm and
one to manage tho dairy and creamery,

The Dairy Hoik
,Tho so-called "dairy belt" that- wo
were wont to hear so much about In
years past proves to be a fallacy.
Wherover thoro Is good grassos and
good water, good butter can bo mado.
It was once contended by dairy writers
, tthat tho "dairy belt" was confined to
tho East, and that dairying could not
be made a bucccbs In tho West. Now
the West Is tho greatest of all dairy
'sections of this vast Union. And thoro
'was bneo a tlmo when tho West
preached the doctrine that dairying
could not bo mado a success In tho
'South. Koto tho condition of the South
today with her thousands of registered
cattle and her tens of thousands of
"grades. These cattlo aro certainly not
kept for breeding purposes alone. Thoy
arc butter producors, importnnt mo
tors In building up tho agricultural
wealth of our Southland. Thoy nro
money makers for our farmers and
breeders. For years tho best grades of
butter In tho South, tho product of
theso herds, has commanded a bettor
price In our markets than the best of
tho Elgin product that has reached us.
In tho past few years crcamerlcB havo
Increased slowly In tho South, but pri
vate dalrlea havo multiplied with as
tonishing rapidity, and tho growth of
our dairy interest Is but In Ua Infancy
ns yet, compared to what It Is bound to
bo In a few years hence. Ex.
Value of Gentleness Tho money
valuo of quietness, gontloncss and good
temper In milch cows Is well known
and appreciated by all practical dairy
men as a thing of prime Importance.
These to a certain extent are Inherited
from tho parents of tho animal, tho
.same as disposition to fatten, quality
of flesh, yield of milk, etc. Evon
harsh tones to a nervous and timid nnl
; mal aro almost as dangerous aa blowB.
- Gentle treatment should commence
early with tho young cair, and bo con
tinued until tho animal Is put In the
dairy. The calf should never know
what It 1b to fear man, nnd If never
treated harshly, frightened or teased,
will, almost without exception, bo ex
empt from vicious habits. They should
bo brought up with tho Idea that man
is their friend and protector. Stock
that can bo approached at any tlmo aro
easier to handle and In that way repay
many times over tho trouble It takes
to rnlBO them In this manner. Tho
best of dairy breeds may bo rendored
useless If subjected to harsh treatment.
Ex.
Tho Averago Cow. The census
claims that there aro over 16.GOO.000
cows In tho United States, and esti
mates their averago production of but
ter at 130 pounds each. When wo con
elder that a good many cows yield
from 150 to 400 pounds per year, wo
must conclude that thero aro a very
largo number that yield far below 130
pounds, elso the average would not be
reduced to that figure. It goes with
out saying that thero aro hundreds of
thousands of cows (probably millions),
that do not begin to pay their way. The
cow owners of this country can make
a few millions of dollars this winter by
entering on a campaign of Investiga
tion, and killing off such cows. Every
-dollar such cows bring as meat Is puro
profit, for they aro worth nothing to
keep.
Pleuro-Pncumonla from Australia.
The department .of agriculture has re
ceived information from English
sources that among tho cattlo shipped
to London from Australia six undoubted
cases of pleu'ro-pneumonla were dis
covered. This, it Is believed, will havo
an important bearing on tho competi
tion with American meats from that
quarter, as it is presumed that England
Will prohibit further Imports from that
section of the globo. It was also learned
from tho camo sourco that tho prices
obtained from Australian meats, 7c
dressed weight, was not satisfactory
to the Australian shipper.
8mn.ll Knrl of ihi Weilgn.
In farming, poultry kcbjtaK Is the
small cilgt of tho wedge, so fai In
vestment Is concerned. That Is, to tho
former who is poor, It presents a way
out into greater tilings. Tho po6r man
cannot go heavily Into horsc-brecdlng,
because It requires largo investment at
first, just when ho has not tho money to
invest. Then lio must wnit throe, four
and flvo years for returns, and to do that
will require considerable monoy to
"carry" tho business. Bo It Is with all
other departments on tho farm, though
not to tho sumo cxtont as in horsc
brcodlng. But with poultry it Is dlrfercnt. Ho
tan invest $1 or $100. Within a fow
weeks his investment returns him an
interest. Frequently it will double
within a year. How much will a man
bo worth If ho can go on doubling his
capital each year for ton years? Even
If his Investment bo only $10, It will
havo reached a comfortable figure. At
tho beginning of tho clovonth year his
capital would bo $10,240, a wedge of
quite rcspoctablc thickness.
Few, howovcr, will carry tho busi
ness through to such n point It re
quires application to numorous details.
Besides, many pcoplo use all tho profits
from tholr flocks, Instead of reinvesting
a portion. Another mlstoko Is to invest
too much n numbers of birds and not
enough In pens for thelraccommodation
nnd comfort, Tho houses, yards, uton
slls and variation of methods must keop
pace with tho Increase of flock.
Altogether tho poultry possibility
seems to bo a providential creation in
bohalf of tho man of moderate means,
tho woman who has a llttlo spending
monoy to Invest and tho school boy that
is ambitious. A small sum can bo in
vested, and It is like tho seed of n plant,
under favorablo conditions it will in
croaso boyond expectations. But in
cither enso the product must bo proper
ly cared for and nourished.
r
A Simple Itut-Trnp.
Under this heading a correspondent
of a poultry Journal sends a description
and sketch, hero reproduced, of what
ho calls "tho only perfect rat-trap, and
very simple and inexpensive." Rats
In soma localities aro a serious nui
sance to poultry breeders, nnd a good
trap is worth a good denl of monoy to
them. Tho contrivance is thus do

KaUInir Juull.
, Harry Rudolph, says the Philadelphia
Record, has bred, hatchod and raised to
maturity in captivity over 100 quail at
his home, on Van Pelt street, this city.
To thoso who have over captured a
young quail and tried to mako It live
this will bo good nows, for soma day
there will probably bo a quail farm
whero this most valuable game bird will
bo bred and raised In quantities. Rocont
severe winters havo greatly lessoned
tho natural supply of quail, not only In
this section, but farther south as well,
ond gamo protective societies havo ex
perienced much difficulty In obtaining
aB many birds as thoy wanted for
breeding purposes.
Mr. Rudolph's discovery of tho food
young quail require was not an acci
dent, but tho result of long study. Ho
has kept live quail for tho last twenty
years, but only until recently has ho
succeeding In getting tho young birds
to live. All ordinary food, Buch as is
given young chickens, turkeys, etc., ho
found to bo useless with quail, tho
young Invariably dying. Ho tried brood
after brood and finally turned his at
tention to wild food, such as tho birds
would bo llkoly to got In their natural
Btatc. Ho was successful and now says
ho can ralso GS per cent of all young
birds batched. Just what this wild food
is Mr. Rudolph says Is his secret. His
success proves that It Is a good ono.
After the birds aro ten days old they
will cat anything and live.
Exterminating Burdocks Like all
biennials, the burdock is easily de
stroyed In cultivated fields. It is
only In by-places, as fence sides, cor
ners, and arqund the buildings, pas
tures, and borders of woodlands that
hurdockc ivo trouble. But even In
theso they aro not difficult to destroy.
Farmers who go over their fields twice
a year with their spades will soon have
no burdocks. In cutting them care
should bo taken to strlko below tho
crown. Every plant cut In this way
must die. The cutting may bo done at
any time of tho year when tho ground
la not frozen, and it 1b, of course, much
more easily dono when tho plants aro
young. While It Is not difficult to cut
gft a small tap root wan tno spado, it
is much more difficult to accomplish the
samo when tho root has attained a di
ameter of an inch or more. Two or
three years of persistent spading will
remove nearly all burdocks from tha
by-places of our farms. Ex.
Don't let manure with smut spores
go on land for cereals. Put it whero
there will be something else. Foul ma
nure is tho cause of much disease
among crops and yet Beldom suspected,
or if suspected wo do not know that we
are to blame.

Under tho tariff protection which is
said to bo laid primarily for tho pitr
poBO of enriching' anh ennobling Amer
ican labor mantitacturora have amassed
colossal fortunes. Amerlcanlahor has
largely disappeared In mlllond shops
of nil kinds. Its place has been taken
by Huns, Uolaclu-Ttusslans and Ital
ians, Imported free, Ihoro bolng no cus
tom houso tax upon labor.
Pamporcd by Republican legislation
of more than a qdartor of a century,
laid In its excesses as n war measure
and maintained because protected in
dustries had tasted blood and would
not roadlly yield advantage, great cor
porations In this country have dealt by
their labor unjustly, cruolly and harsh
ly. Tho Amorican laborer has gone
into other field?. Ho has taken up lands
or ho hns found occupation for himself
elsewhere. The class of men taking his
placo aro not of tho highest, though
thoy are somo of tho fiercest at times.
Companies, instead of enriching and
ennobling these men, havo used tholr
advantages to treat them as vllllan3
and serfs. Tho Insufficient wage they
havo given them at times has been
taken back from thorn for ronta and
through truck stores. Stockades have
been built about them as though thoy
were prisoners. Tho law has still
looked to tho protection of all citizens,
oven of aliens. To mako appeal to tho
law a nullity InBolcnt employers of
labor that havo togged men with num
bered bits of brass as it they wero cat
tlo instead of men aro going so far as to
compel tho parents or guardians of
children upon their pay rolls children
who ought never be there while adult
labor Is to bo had to sign contracts In
their behalf aa a condition of their em
ployment that they shall hold the com
pany harmless for any injury that mny
bo sustained by them In tho perform
ance of perilous labor.
At tho ond of a long litigation such a
contract might bo pronounced void and
of no effect, but tho tariff which Its
friends and beneficiaries say was de
signed to ennoble nnd enrich American
labor docs not glvo that American labor
sufficient surplus to warrant Its con
testing a long litigation. The com
panies havo tho benefit of theso con
tracts. Such treatment of labor aa the re
quirement as to children is monstrous.
It comos from thoso Industries that aro
still clamoring for more protection,
still nssortlng falsely that a high tariff
Is laid primarily In the interest of
labor. It comos from McKlnleyltcs, It
is the Inevitable accompaniment of Mc
Klnloylsm, Which impoverishes and de
grades labor.
Tho Tariff and Shoddy.
Says tho Intor-Ocorui: "Under opera
tion of tho Wilson-Gorman thrift tho
Imports of shoddy have increased 117
fold. This means that thoro aro 147
times moro shoddy Clothing worn In tho
United States than when tho McKlnley
law lovled a duty of 30 cents per pound
on tho vllo stuff."
Breathes there a Republican with
head so thick as to take that In? If It
wero true that the imports of shoddy
had Increased bb Btated under tho law
It would not follow by any means that
our people were wearing 147 times moro
shoddy clothing than thoy were before.
Wo have plenty of shoddy mills of out
own and tholr numbor and output havo
increased enormously under Repub
lican protection of the noblo shoddy In
dustry. Wo aro Importing about eight times
as much clothing wool as wo Imported
under tho McKlnley law. Reasoning
Inter-Ocean fashion, our people aro
wearing eight tlmcB as much all-wool
clothing as they wore when tho McKln
ley law was in force. Thoy aro wearing
a good deal more, but not quite eight
tlmeo as much. Nor aro they wearing
147 times as much shoddy or twice as
much. Of woolen rags and all kinds of
"waste," Including shoddy, wo aro im
porting about eighteen times as much
as wo did under tho old law, but It docs
not follow that n slnglo pound moro is
put Into tho clothing of tho people. The
total Import of shoddy and all wastes
and rags Is comparatively small. It Is
only ono pound to moro than twonty
threo pounds of wool Imported.
Shoddy has Its legitimate uses, ao In
making felts, and for such uses tho Im
rrts no doubt havo Increased. The
great lncreaso In the importation of
clothing wool tellB tho story as to tho
clothing of the people. If tho Repub
licans do not believe it. if they think
the peoplo aro longing for the restora
tion of McKlnley duties and prices for
woolen goods, lot them pass tho Mc
Klnley wool schedule during the com
ing session of congress and cee whero
they will land a year from now. Chi

Delated WHrriora.
Henry Cahot Lodge of Massachusetts
and Dolph of Oregon havo joined the
army ot republican senators who aro
rallying about that intrepid leader,
"Bill" Chandlor to undertake tho con
quest of tho world.
Lodge cables all the way from Paris
his high defiance of all effete nations
of Euro?a and his demand for a foreign
policy mado up of ultimatums. Dolph
telegraphs his war cry from Oregon.
The westerner Is a trifle more turgid
of language than tho scholar In politics,
but no whit more bloodthirsty. He de
mands that the Monroe doctrine be
upheld, if necessary, at the point of
the eword, and that Cuba be taken un
der the protective wing ot the American
eagle expensive and doubtful enter
prises both.
It is not by mere coincidence that
so many republican' so'nhtbfa from eucli'
widely separated points o.f vantagi
sound the war tocsin. Clearly thero Is
a woll-defincd understanding between
them. It lf only ono movo in tho gamo

tho fight for sound money by their al
liance with mining camp senators nnd
by their rotten record of mismanage
ment of tho currency, tho republicans
seek to inject a new issuo into tho pres
idential campaign. They havo chosen
the sentimental issue of tho domination
of tho United States In tho eastern hem
isphere and purpose pressing It to tho
point of war if it servo their partisan
purpose. Tho chorus already begun by
Chandlor, Dolph and L'odge will bwoII
to deafenlns volume before tho ides of
March.
It Is politics only, though. Thoy
don't really want war, these noisy jin
goes. Thero has been war,, grim and
earnest enough, In theso United States
of sufficiently late date for theso wor
thies to havo distinguished themselves
on hard-fought fields, Bheddlng their
blood for their country. But you may

Only Ono Sldo to tho Ilareuln.
Now York World: However much It
Is to bo condemned by everyone who
bclloves in fair trade, tho action of
the leather trust Is logical. In shutting
down a hundred tanneries nnd locking
out 15,000 men for a month It seeks to
so "restrain trade" as to force up prices.
This is the ultimate object of all mo
nopoly combinations. Their talk of
combination as "a meanB of cheapening
tho cost of product" Is specious hum
bug. When they combine it is In tho
hope of coercing the public and sus
pending tho first law of fair trade tho
law that It "takes two to moke a bar
gain." Every trust Intends that thero
shall bo only one eldo to a bargain
tho trust side.
Too Much Kvon for Jingo Kdltors.
In their frantic efforts to assail tho
foreign policy of President Cleveland,
which has adhered with firmness and
dignity at all points to the old Ameri
can lines laid down by Washington nnd
Jefferson, the ultra-jingo statesmen
are overreaching themselves. The re
cent hysterical manifestoes of Chandler
and Lodge have had but fow Indorsing
echoes oven in tho Jingo press. Even
tho average Jingo editor has enough ap
preciation of tho common senso of tho
average American citizen to refrain
from approving tho mad and Immoral
proposal to provoke a great war with
tho ono foreign nation with which, If
for no other than commercial reasons,
It Is doslrnblo that wo should maintain
an honornblo peace.

WHERE GRAIN GROWS.
Manitoba's magnificent crop of 1895
demonstrates tho wonderful fertility
and productiveness of tho soil of that
western Canadian province. Tho yield
of wheat on 1,145,270 acres was about
35,000,000 bus.hels; of oats, nearly 30,
000,000 bushels on 482,578 acres; of bar
loy, 6,000,000 on 153,839 acres, and there
were besides 1,250,000 bushols of tlax,
C5.O0O bushols of ryo and 25,000 bushels
of peas. This Is au average of over 30
bushels of wheat to tho acre, of CO bush
els of oats, and of 39 bushels of barley;
ond this Immense crop was safely har
vested by 25,000 farmers, many of whom
settled in Manitoba within tho past ten
years With very llttlo capital except in
dustry and energy, nnd some with little
or no experience whatever In farming.
In the nggregate theso 25,000 farmorrt
have averaged 2,880 bushels of grain of
ali kinds; and besides this havo pro
duced magnificent crops of roots, pota
toes, cabbages, onions and garden vege
tables of all kinds. They havo snipped
to eastern markets, In addition, thou
sands of head of sleek cattlo and lr.rge
numbers of sheep. And all this has
been accomplished without tho expen
diture of ono dollar for artificial fer
tilizers and with a very small outlay for
wages.
Beyond this province are fertile lands
and a ranching country stretching tailes
to tho foothills of the Rocky Moun
tans. These aro divided into tho dis
tricts of Asslnlbola, Saskatchewan and
Alberta. Tho eastern part of tho firm
er is also admirably adapted for wheat
raising and mixed farming, and tho
western part of tho district and tho
southern half of Alberta combine to

Bubbles or Medals,
" Best sarsaparillas;" When you think of it how contradictory
that term is. For there can be only one best in anything one best
sarsaparilla, as there is one highest mountain, one longest river, one
deepest ocean. And that best sarsaparilla is ? .... There's,
the rub I You can measure mountain height and ocean depth, but
how test sarsaparilla ? You could, if you were chemists. But then,,
do you need to test it? The World's Fair Committee tested it, and
thoroughly. They went behind the label on the bottle. What did
this sarsaparilla test result in? Every make of sarsaparilla shut out
of the Fair, except Ayer's. 80 it was that Aycr's was the only
sarsaparilla admitted to the World's Fair. The committee found it
the best They had no room for anything that v.-as not the best.
And as the best,. Ayers Sarsaparilla received the medal and awards
due its merits. Remember the word " best is a bubble any breath
can blow; but there are pins to prick such bubbles. Those others
are blowing more "best sarsaparilla" bubbles since the World's Fair
