V/INTER DAIRYING.
By J. II. Frandson. Professor of Dairy
Husbandry.
There are many advantages in hav
ing cows cor.ie fresh In the winter ,
when all dairy products sell at a high
price. Her j In Nebraska the price of
batter is fully 30 per cent higher In
the winter than in the summer.
When the cows calve in the spring
they generally milk well until the pas
tures "dry up , " when the flow of milk
< iuickly falls off. so that by the time
stable feeds begin the cows are al
most "dried up. " Noif the cows
come fresh In the fall they produce a
good flow of milk during the winter
months , and in the spring when they
are turned on grass this acts as a
second freshening , and thus lengthens
the period of milk production An
other distinct advantage In winter
dairying Is that during this season the
farmer is not so busy with other
work , consequently he can give more
time to the care of the cows , the milk
-.ind the cream than is possible during
the busy season of the year. When
winter dairying becomes more general
ly practiced the subject of winter
feeds will he given more attention.
Of these , silage Is one of the most
Important , since one acre of good
ullage material will yield as much feed
ss three acres of pasture.
COMMUNITY BREEDING

through the herd is rapid , there will
be many that are apparently well that
have been Infected for three or four
days. Most of these will die In
herds that are very susceptible and
where the outbreak Is a virulent one
the spread is so rapid that unless
serum is used at the outset the loss
will be heavy. In ordinary outbreaks
if the serum Is used early and In suf
ficient dosage the loss should fall be
low 10 per cent.
1 breed , but that a community , so far as
possible , should favor a partlculai
breed It nearly all the breeds art
represented In a sparsely settled com
munlty it means that there are noi
many of one breed , and , as a result
whenever new blood is desired for a
herd It is necessary to send away , fie-
'fluently ' long distances , to secure what
Is desired Another distinct advan
tage of community breeding , especial
( ! y where the herds are small , is that
the farmers of a community can Joint
ly purchase the sire and use him for
their herds The cost of purchaslne
and maintaining a good , pure bred
sire will in this way be reduced to ?
minimum The further advantage tc
a district or locality in sticking tc
one breed is that the demand for thai
particular breed may be supplied In
carload lots , and in this way the dts
trlct will gradually work up a reputa
tion that will readily enable it to dls
pose of anv surplus stock. In a great
measure the success of our European
t
friends is due to the fact that they
have , as n country , been faithful tc
anil developed that particular breed

HEAVY GUN FIRING PROVED FATAL -
TAL TO THEIR PETS.
ONLY A FEW ARE LEFT NOW
The Louisiana Has a Goat and the
Vermont a Boston Terrier and a
Cat , While the Ohio Has a Big
Black Bear.
Mascots In the United States navy
nre on the decline. Of the 102 wnr-
nhlps Hint participated In the grand re
view nt New York not half of them
possessed mascots. There wns 11 time
when many United States battleships
resembled Noah's ark. There was not
one mascot to a ship , but seemingly
a miiscot to every member of the crew.
The fo'c'sle was like the menagerie
tent of n circus. Trained pigs , goats ,
dogs of various breeds , cats of vari
ous color , bears , roosters and other
specimens of the animal kingdom de
lighted the hearts of the Jolly tars.
Hut there has come n change.
In some cases the commanders of
the ships are opposed to mascots on
the ground that they are a nuisance.
On other ships the surgeon objects
claiming that dogs and cats are breed
ers and carriers of disease. But the
chief reason for the passing of the
Bailors' pets Is thnt the terrific concus
Hlon aboard the big boats during tar
get practice U fatal to mascots.
But there are mascots still. Often
down between decks , In a quiet corner
seldom visited by olllcers , the men
have secreted a cut or n dog.
The Connecticut , llagshlp of Rear
Admiral Osterhaus , is minus a mas
cot.
cot.On
On the Michigan the men have two
mascots In 1'ie ' shape of a Boston bull
nnd an English bull. Between the two
dogs and Seaman J. G. Faulhaber , the
end man of the ship's minstrel troupe ,
the men of the Michigan are amply
biipplled with mascots. Seaman W. J.
llagmayer. the champion buck and
wing dancer of the Atlantic licet , Is
also one of the cherished treasures of
this big ship.
Aboard the North Dakota the men
tion of the word mascot brings pain ,
for Xip. the white dog mascot of the
ship , Is no more , lie was lost at Nor
folk a shoit time ago , and the men
have not had the heart to replace him
with another.
The Louisiana's mascot Is an able
bodied goat , kept between decks in
the bos'n'.s locker , a workroom about
four feet square. Billy Butts is the
goat's name , and Billy Butts Is the
pet of every man Jack aboard the I/.iu
Islana. Cockswain N. T. Nightingale
is the ollicial gout keeper.
Aboard the Vermont are two mas
cots. One Is a Boston terrier and the
other a cat. There Is nothing extraor
dinary about either beyond the fact
that they are sincerely revered by a'l '
the enlisted men aboard the huge war
hhlp. Chief Bns'u's Mate Payne de
clares that they are the most wonder
ful animals in all the world , and hi1
will lay great stress on the fact that
they sleep together and never scratch ,
bite , spit or growl at each other.
Aboard the Ohio Is the biggest mas
cot in the fleet. The beast of good
omen Is none other than a huge black
bear , with shaggy coat and cold tip
ped nose , who likes nothing better
than to playfully paw a sallorman or
give a backhander that sends his hu
man admirer scrambling in the scup
pers. The bear has half a dozen
names. Some call him Teddy , other. '
call him Sam.
The Wisconsin has for her mascot e
kangaroo. This kangaroo is said tc
be the greatest mascot that the Ameri
can navy has ever possessed. It will
don hosing gloves and make the ship's
champion slugger look like a babe IE
arms in the presence of Jack Johnson
CENSOR POSTCARDS.

Eight New Members.
Home , Nov. 27. Obedient to a
summons from Pope Pius X , the car
dinals In Rome assembled in a secret
consistory today and confirmed the
papal nominations of eight new mem
hers in the college of cardinals , the
biipreme governing body of the Ho
man Catholic church. Of those thus
honored , three are citizens of the
United States : Mgr. John M. Farley ,
archbishop of New York ; Mgr. Will
iam O'Connell , archbishop of Boston ,
and Mgr. Dlomede Falconio , apostolic
delegate at Washington.
Thus , with Cardinal Gibbons , Amer
ica will have now for the firbi time a
representation of four in the cardinal-
ate , which , such aa now constituted ,
will elect a successor to the reigning
pontiff. As lie entered the hall of the
consistory , where today's ceremony
took place , the pope's step was less
sure and the careworn face of hla
holiness bore signs of his recent Ill
ness. Nevertheless he withstood the
fatigue of the long and trying ordeal
bravely.
In accordance with the ecclesiasti
cal , the consistory must be held three
da > s after the private gathering when
the cardinals , with the exception of
those from Spain and Austria , will re-
celve their red hats. The Spanish and
Austrian prelates , OB is pro\ided in
the concordate with those countries ,
must receive the biretta first from
the hands of their temporal sovereign ,
Besides the new cardinals who re
ceived the red hat today , the pope
created another , whom he reserved "in
pectore" ( kept secret ) , and whose
name will he published in a lettei
consistory when the pope wishes that
to be done. In some cases the name
of the prelate thus chosen only becomes
comes known after the death of the
pope.
