Winter Prices for Milk.
The price for milk In tho winter
Is generally very much higher than In
I bo summer. The difference for tho
.vhole country is about the difference
betweoa 60 cents and $1.50. This dif-
ference however is extreme. In the
West sumo of the milk will sell as
low as 90 cents por hundred pounds
In summer and $1.40 In winter this
difference being about 50 cents. There
Is very llttlo excuse for this great
difference In price especially for the
small price in summor. It can only
bo explained on tho supposition that
farmers have not jet learned bow to
dispose of their milk in the summer
lime. Wo believe that all things con-
lidcred and on a well equipped farm.
milk can be produced as cheaply or
nearly as cheaply. In winter as sum-
mar. In tho summer often tho question
of mlll.ing is a serious one because
all the pcoplo on tho farm aro en-
gaged in looking after the crops that
are then being grown. In the winter-
time labor is more abundant and Un-
people who are doing the work on
tho farm are less pressed for tlmo.
Milking therefore should cost loss In
tho winter than In tho summer. Wc
said "on the farm that Is well
equipped." This of course means the
farm that has a silo and where a
great amount of silage has been put
up In tho fall. On some of our great
est dairy farms the cowa arc not
turned out at all during the summer-
time so far as pasturing Is concerned;
but they are fed in tho stalls summer
and winter in such cases winter feed
costing practically the same as sum-
mor feed.
Tho price for winter milk in north-
ern Illinois should be 1.40 or $1.60
per hundred pounds on the basis of
the present price of reed. Wo believe
at such prices It Is posslblo for the
farmer to make money providing ho
so arranges his breeding operations
that about half of his cows will come
In fresh in tho fall.
Feeding for Milk.
Taking it for gi anted that tho dairy-
man has warm and comfortable win-
ter quarters for his milch cows a
good flow of milk is readily produced
with proper feed and management. If
tho farmer has corn silage he is able
to put up tho best and cheapest dairy
ration obtainable. We feed cows on
full tlow of milk from 20 to 25 pounds
of sllago twice n day morning and
night. At noon bright clean clover or
millet hay is given in such quantities
qb will bo eaten up clean. About three
pounds of bran is given with sllago
to those on full flow of milk whllu
others reccivo proportionately less.
Tho feeder must constantly watch his
animals as to how they respond to
liberal feeding and vary his methods
with different animals. With silage
that has an abundance of corn In it
thero is no need of feeding ground
corn.
Salt tho cows nbout every other
day giving a small handful on feed.
This will keep their bowels open and
prevent disorders of tho digestive
organs which occur qulto frcquontlj
with animals highly fed. Where no
sllago is obtainable n good flow can
bo maintained by feeding good clover
or millet hay In tho morning and
bright shreddod corn foddor nt night.
For tho grain latlnn feed about lour
pounds of bran and two pounds of
corn-meal or four pounds of corn and
cob-meal twice a day. Although not
as good as the sllago ration mill In
tho absence of a tllo it will prove
very satisfactory. Feed water and
milk the cows regularly; 3co to their
every comfort treat them kindly at
mllklug time and rest assured that
you will recelvo your reward in a
good flow of milk. II. Pfaondcr
Drown Co Minn. in Farmejs' He-
view. SoCalled "Wonder" Churns.
Many ot tho churns being offered up-
on tho market with "wonder" attached
to their name In some form or other arc
good things for tho farmer to let alone
Wc havo Just heard of a new churn
ot this kind being manufactured in
Massachusetts. It makes a pound of
butter from a quart of milk which
has been tho form ot fraud most com-
monly practiced In tho salo of eucIi
churns. It Is easy enough by tho use
of pepsin to collect the butter-fat aud
tho casein lu milk Into ono mass that
looks very much like butter. The
mass however. Is not butter but a
very rich soft cheese. Tho men that
sell these churns depend upon this de-
ception for making their sales and
wo nro sorry to bollevo that they finu
altogether too many buyers.
Dairying in Argentina
Tho dairy Industry is rapidly ad-
vancing In Argentina ThlB is shown
by figures recently published by the
government of thnt country. Eleven
years ago tho export of butter amount-
ed to less than twenty tons. Tho fol
lowing jear 1905 tho figures wero 494
tons; In 1901 they had reached a total
ot 1.510 tons; In 1902 tho total exports
of buttor wero 4125 tons; in 1903 the
exports wero 5520 tons Of these last
Great nritaln bought 4114 tons nnd
Africa 1213 tons. We havo no later
statistics than those of 1903. Tho num-
ber of cos In tho republic devoted
largely to the production of milk for
human consumption Is nbout 2000000.
Feeding Farm Horses.
I A. Men III Utah hpeaklng to a con
courso of farmers said tho amount of
hnv fed on the ordinary farm may be
qreatly reduced so far as horses arc
concerned. This he said would bo u
saving to the farmers nnd would re
suit In reducing tho digestivo disor-
ders to which the horses aro subject.
Hortos should recelvo most ot tho hay
at night very llttlo in tho morning
and uono at all for tho noon meal.
Always water bofora feeding Oats
mako the best grain feed for horses
but theso can ho roplaced by bran or
shorts or supplemented by the use o
corn. Carrots and sugar-beet put
havo a marked Uiyioflclal effect In
horso fcoding serving as a laxatlvi
ana tonic aB well as enabling th
horso to digest the hay and grain mor
effectively. Horses may eat as mucl
as 40 pounds ot sugar beet pulp dall)

Foundation 'of the New Poultry House.
After building" a number ot poultry
houses one has certain Important facts
Impressed upon him. One ot theso
that comes home with a good deal of
force to the writer la the matter ot
foundation. If he builds another poul-
try house he will seo that tho founda-
tion Is perfect and that It will be more
than strong enough. A poultry house
that Is not properly built In this re-
spect will bo a nuisance In several
WJ.VS.
It Is customary to build poultry
houses on slopes where It can be done
and that Is proper ns It gives good
drainage. Rut In case tho foundation
proves to bo poor and needs to be
supported It will generally bo found
very difficult to do anything without
raising the house by means of Jack
screws. The writer has had a very
vexatious task of this kind. The trou-
ble la that one end of tho house is
set so close to tho ground that one
cannot get tinder It or oven get at
the parts that need to bo supported.
When a poultry houso has to be
erected that Is twelve feet or more
wide thero should bo a row of sup-
ports running tho length of the house
under the very middle. Almost all
amateurs make the mistake of sup-
porting thn house only on the sides
and ends. Tho twelve-foot Jolsta even
though they bo six Inches deep and
two thick have a very great amount
of vibration and it Is unpleasant to
walk over a floor laid on such Joists.
Dut If the tlmo ever come3 that the
house has to bo used for another pur-
pose than poultry kcoplng. this kind
of a floor will be found to be unendur-
able. This possibility should be borne
in mind for numerous poultry houses
becomo transformed in time lntct
houses for other purposes especially
If they arc of good size
A fault that Is very noticeable In
tho building of most of tho houses
used by our poultry is that they nro
merely set on posts stuck In tho
ground for perhaps two feet. In a few
years somo of theso posts rot and
others get a lean on them out of
plumo due to the ground on one eide
of the poultry house being softer than
on the other side. Tbo rain gets into
tho holes and the soil there becomes
softer than at any other point and
this does not Improve as tho years
go by. Settling goes on year after
year. I havo in mind a poultry house
that cost nearly a hundred dollars. It
was set on cedar posts and tho posts
aro badly rotted now In spito of the
fact that cedar Is supposed to be re-
sistent to rot. Somo of the cedar
posts have also got out of plumb and
the houso has moved over several
Inches to accommodate tho posts.
What the end will bo nobody knows.
Build the foundations strong in the
first place. If tho building Is to rest
on supports of any kind dig deep' holes
in the ground and put In brick or
stono duly cemented. Have a big
timber running tho length of tho
building and also resting on tho same
klud of piers. This will cost a little
moro than tho posts but it will be
more satisfactory and yenrs afterward
tho owner will be glad that ho so
Invested tho money that tho good foun-
dations cost.
Cost of Transporting Fowls.
Late In the fall or early in the.
winter is tho best timo for tho farmer
to buy poultry to rept-enlsh his stock
or to give him n high quality of
breeders. Theso should bo mated early
In February. I think it is better for
him to buy male birds but he can do
much by buying both kinds. Ho need
not bo afraid to buy birds at a con-
siderable distance from him as they
can bo shipped long distances without
deterioration Tho cost of shipping
birds Is not great when wo ccssidor
the bulk of tho bird and the trouble
any living thing Is to tho transporta-
tion companies. I shipped ono bird
to Crlpplo Creek Col. for $1.25 cost
of transportation. On one shipped to
Los Angeles the cost of transportation
was $1.50. I havo shipped several to
Kansas at tho rate of 80 cents each.
1 find that birds can bo shipped In
'winter without being in danger of
tnklng cold if they aro boxei right.
Whether tho birds aro taken caro of
on the railroads Is a thing wo cannot
know as that depends on the em-
ployes. Some aro careful of such
tilings and somo are not. Some farm-
ers are afraid to buy from flocks at
a dlstanco because they aro afraid of
roup and other contagious diseases. 1
can only say to that that it is neces-
sary to deal with a reputable dealer
and that Is true whether ho lives near-
by or far away. The only way that a
farmer can know that he Is getting
good birds and not scrubs when he
buys poultry is to educato himself
along tho lino of poultry. Judging all
ho buys by a book called tho Ameri-
can Standard of Perfection which de-
scribes all the classes of poultry now
in general use with tho exception of
a few breeds brought out recently
which tho Amerlcnn Association ot
Poultry Raisers do not yet admit as
standard breeds. It n man pays for a
first-class bird and when It arrives
.Inds It is not what he paid for tbo
rcmody is for him to ship It back at
once. Marciau P. Seavey Cook Co.

Incubator in Cold Weather.
Bolow I givo my methods of incuba
tion. I mate my birds In January and
begin to bet tho eggs some timo in Feb-
ruary. Frequently I begin about the
15th. I find tho fowls hatched in March
and April nro tho best winter lajers
and also mako the best show birds the
coming winter. They do not need to
Q pushed forward by high feeding
ta do those that aro hatched later
in tho spring. I placo 15 eggs undor
each hen. But wo use only a few
'iens so I have two Incubators nach
t thoso holds 150 eggs. I only start
one at a tlmo and then ten days after-
wards start the other nnd I keep them
joing. That slves mo a hatch every
n days. If I two a hen that wants
to set I sot her in the basement If the
weather is cold C. W. BrehB. Clay

HE HATED TYPEWRITERS.
Ilever Neglected an Opportunity -to
Denounce the Machines.
Tho lato Associate Justice Gray of i
the supreme court was very eccentric
Among h!j prejudice was a deop and I
lasting aversion for a typewriter j
That machine did not come Into gen- '
oral use until Justice Gray was tin '
old man and he never became recon-
ciled to it. It made him furious It n
lawyer filed with him a motion or ot'-
er court papers typewritten. Hs 1 1-
variably returned It with a bniiqui
variably returned It with a brusqitJ
request thnt tho natter be wrltton In
his disposal but never utilize his
services as ho wrote all his lutto.M ai
well as his opinions. He notified the
clerk of tho supreme court not to
send him any typewritten paper no
matter how Important It might be.
Ho never neglected an opportunity to
denounce typewriters. The result
of his hatred for theso machines was I
that ho did three times ns much work
ns tho other Justices.
The only enemy of will power Is
won't power.
People now demand tho right to
know exactly what they eat.
To bo told by maker or retailer that
tho food is "pare" is not satisfactory.
Candy may contain "pure" white
clay or "pure" dyes and yet be ery
harmful. Syrups may contain "pure"
glucoso and yei be quite digestible and
even beneficial. Tomato catsup may
contain a small amount of salicylic or
boraclc acid as a necessary preserva-
tive which may agree with ono and
be harmful to another.
Wheat flour may contain n portion
of corn flour and really be improved.
Olive oil may be made of cotton seed
oil Butter may contain beef tuet nnd
yet be nutritious.
Tho person who buys and cats must
protect himself and family and he has
a right to. and now demands n law
under which he can make intelligent
selection of food.
Many puro food bills have been In-
troduced nnd some passed by State leg-
islatures; many have been offered to
Congress but nil thus far seem objec-
tionable'. It has seemed difficult for politicians
to formulate a satisfactory bill that
would protect tho common pcoplo and
yet avoid harm to honest makers nnd
prevent endless trouble to retaller3.
No gov't commission or officer has the
right to fix "food standards" to define
what the people shall nnd shall not cat
for what ngrec3 with ono may not
agree with another and such act would
deprive tho common citizen of his
personal liberty. Tho Postum Cereal
Co. Ltd. perhaps tho largest makep.1
ot prepared foods in tho world havo
naturally a closo knowledge of the
needs of tho pcoplo nnd tho details of
tho business of the purveyors (the re-
tail grocer) and guided by this experi-
ence havo prepared n bill for submis-
sion to Congress which Is Intended to
accomplish the desired ends and inas-
much as a citizen ot tho U. S. has a
right to food protection even when he
enters nnothor State it Is deemed
proper that the gov't tnko control of
this mattor and provido a national
law to govern all tho states. A copy
of tho bill is hcrowith reproduced.
Sec. 1 governs the maker whether
the food is put up in small packages
scaled or In barrels boxes or other-
wise. Sec 2 governs the retailer who may
open a barrel and sell tho food In
small quantities. When he puts tho
goods into a paper bag ho must nlso
Inclose a printed copy of the statement
of tho maker which was affixed to the
original pkg. aud inasmuch as the
retailer cannot undertake to guarantee
the statercnt of Ingredients ho must
publish .tho statement of the mnkeis
and add his own name and address as
n guarantee of his selling the food as it
is represented to him which iclieves
tho retailer of responsibility of tho
truth of tho htatemrnt and throws it
upon tho maker whero it properly be-
longs. Tho remalning-sections explain them-
selves. Tho Postum Cereal Co. Ltd. for cs-
amplo havo from '.he beginning of its
cxlstcuce printed on tho outside of each
and evcr pkg. of Postum and Grape-
Nuts food n truthful aud exact state-
ment of what tho contents wero mado
of in order that the consumer might
know precisely what ho or she was
eating. A person deslrin to buy for
Instance strictly puro fruit Jelly and
willing to pay tho price has a right to
expect not only un equivalent for tho
cost but a further right to a certainty
as to what ho eats. Or bo may bo will-
ing to buy at loss co3t a jelly mado
part of fruit juices sugar and a por-
tion of glucose. Hut he must bo sup-
piled with truthful Information of the
ingredients and be permitted to use
his personal liberty to select his own
food accurately.
The peoplo havo allowed tho slow
murder ot infants and adults by tricky
makers of food drink and drugs to go
on about long enough. Duty to oneself
family and nation demands that every
man aud woman join in an organized
movement to clear our people from
this blight. You may not bo able to go
personally to Washington to impress
your Congressmen but jou can In a
most offcctlvo way tell him by letter
how you dcslro him to represent jou.
Remember tho Congressman is In
Congress to represent tho peoplo from
his district and if a goodly number ot
citizens express their views to him ho
secures a very sure guide to duty. Re-
member also that tho safety of the
people Is assured by insisting that the
will of tho people be carried out and
not tbo machinations of the few for
selfish interests.
This pure food legislation is a puro
movement of the peoplo for pul lie pro-
tection. It will bo opposed only by
thoso who fatten thetr pockets by de-
ceiving and injuring the ntonle. Therc-

condition than when a faction demands
class 1 glslatlon of tho Congressman.
Soveral cars ago tho but'.er Interests
of the country demanded legislation to
kill the oleomargarlno industry and by
power of organization forced class leg-
islation really unworthy of u free peo-
ple. Work peoplo wanted baef suet
butter because it was cheap and better
than much unclean milk butter but the
dairy Interests organized and forced
the legislation. The law should have
provided that pkgs of oleomargarine
bear tbo statement of Ingredients and
then let peopla who dczlrd purchase It

Into bankruptcy among the Mara-
waris In India now unhappily giving (
way to tho leas picturesque method of j
tho white man. When a man could
not pay his bills ho would summon his
creditors. They were ushe-ed Into
a room In which the Thnker or liousc-
hokl god was enshrined but covered
up with a cloth and with the face
turnod to the wall. In order thnt it
might not witness the scene thnt was
to follow Tho Insolvent would then
in garb of mourning lie on the floor
presenting his hack to his creditors
who. on a given signal would fall on
him with shoes and slippers and be-
labor him till their wrath nnd exhaust-
ed. The beating finished honor was
diclarod to bo satisfied all around.
South African Exhibition.
Preliminary arrangements for hold-
ing a Uritlsh South African exhibition
in London early In 1907 havo been
completed by Captain Ham a member
of the Cape parliament.
for Just that It is and not try to kill It
by a heavy tax Manufacturers some-
times try to force measures In their
own interests but contrary to tho In-
terests of the people and the labor
trust Is alwajs uctlve to push through
bills drafted in the interest of that
trust but directly contrary to the In-
terests of the people as a whole. Wit-
ness tho anti-Injunction bill by which
labor unions seek to tlo the hands of
our courts and prevent the Issue of
any order to restrain the members of
that trust from attacking men or de-
stroying property. Such a bill is per-
haps the most infamous Insult to our
courts and tho common people ever
laid before Congress and the Represen-
tatives In Congress must be held to a
strict accountability for their acts ie-
iatjng thereto. Dut when bills como
before Congress that aro drawn In tho
Interests of all the people thoy should
receive the active personal support of
tho pcoplo and the representatives bo
ItiBtructed by tho citizens. Tho Sena-
tors also should bo written to and in-
structed. If therefore you will re-
member jour privilege nnd duty ou
will at once now writo to your Con-
gressman nnd Senator on this pure
food bill. Clip and enclose tho copy
herewith presented and ask them to
make a business of following It thiough
tho committee considering it. Urge
Its being brought to a vote and re-
questing that they vote for it.

NEW BALTIMORE GALLERY.
Famous Walters Collection Is to Hiue
a Worthy Horns.
Tho famous Waiters nt collection
nt Baltimore is to have n homo wor-
thy of It now going up nt tho corner
of Wnshlngton place and Center
street. Tbo new gallery Is being built
by Henry Walters as a memorial to
his father tho late William T. Wat
tors who gathered ono of tho world's
greatest private collections of point-
ings nnd ceramics. Tho bulldlnghas.
been designed by Delano & Aldfipfi
of New York who hnve cmployetlWo
Italian stylo of architecture and it Is.'
bald that this will be ono of tho finest
as well as one of the largest galleries
In the country. It Is expected that tho
building will be completed beforo
January 1 next when the valuable
collection now stored In Now York
will bo taken to Baltimore. There is
to be n fireproof Jntranco from Mr.
Walter's present gnllcry In his houss
on .Mount Vernon place to tho new
Ballery.
Tho bitter dregs of truth aro to bo
found nt the bottom of tho cup.
carping critic may say tills is slmply-
nn advertisement for Postum and
Grape-Nuts. It is true that theso ar-
ticles aro spoken of here in a publio-
manncr but they nro used as illustra-
tions of a manufacturer seeking by
example printing on each pkg. n truth'
ful. exact statement ot Ingredients to
shame other makers into doing tho
fair thing by the common people and
establishing an era of puro food but
that procedure has not jet forced thoso
who adulterate and deceive to chnugo
their methods hence this effort to
arouse public sentiment nhd show a
way out of tho present condition of
fraud deceit and harm.
The undersigned Is paying to the
publishers of Ametlca about $20000.00
to print this announcement in practi-
cally all of the great papers and maga-
zines In tho conduct of what he-
chooses to term "an educational cam-
paign" esteemed to bo of greater di-
rect value to the people than the estab-
lishment of many libraries. That la
held to bo a worthy method of using-
money for the jmbllc good. Tell tho
people facts show them a way to help
themselves and rely upon them to act
Intelligently and effectively.
The reader will bo treely forgiven if
lie entirely forgets the reference to-
Postum and Grape-Nuts If he will but
join the puro food movement nnd
i'n tMngs.
