The cotton workers of Massachusetts have been, working on short time for several months and are now asked to accept A- reduction, in wages, Hanna ihas been begging the manufacturers to postpone the reduction until after elec tion, but Massachusetts is regarded as so safely Bepubllcan that employers do not see why they should allow poli tics to interfere with business.; In Indiana there are at least 85,000 men In idleness because the iron and steel and other trusts have closed down thelf plants indefinitely.'

Tbe farmers wore themselves out washing sheep during the last Dem ocratic administration. Since McKin ley 'was Inaugurated the sheep have washed , themselves. .They, hay not only washed, but scoured their own wool.: and.. given their, owners triple prices.. With four years more of Mc Kinley they will shear themselves, car ry, their fleeces to market and bring home tbe money for their masters. : As for pork, .what hasn't Republic anism done for It? It baa made the bogs bigger and fatter and made their flesh at once more firm and more ten der, . It bas imparted to pork, and peclally bams, that beechnut . flavor which tickles, the palate of the gor- maud. It has beaten the Weatpballan article out of sight and scared all the German swine breeders out of their WitS.' Who doesn't know what Republican ism Una done for beef?

Tf ir , The average dairyman, by Instinct or education, bas come to realize that a cow Is not merely on animal with a leg on each corner; writes W. r. McSpar ran In Tbe National' Stockman. Many a farmer knows pretty well when he sees a good cow, not because he bas studied er perhaps even seen a scale of points, but because bo does. He knows there are cows snd cows, and tbe mote he knows that tho more difficult It be comes for him to acquire by purchase such cows as be knows be wants. He wants tbe bag and teats and body and back and bead and heart and bide of cow, and 'when be drives around and finds this combination In one cow or ganism he finds ber owner does not .

If be goes to tbe pub lic sale or auction, where a great many kinds, but very few of tbe one kind, go, and be picks out that one kind as meet ing tbe specifications, be finds a num ber of other men also who want ber, and tbe man who is willing to back bis judgment with tbe most cash or the biggest, note gets ber, Numerous experiences along tbe line nt trrlne? to hnv such cows aa ha wanta finally teach , bim . what be should Ibave known In tbe beginning of his .business as a dairyman, that be must produce what be wants. And just here ;is where be Is apt to make tbe gravest and most lasting mistake of tbe breed ertrying to breed up and buying the sire of bis herd "way down.-., - : It is past tbe day of trying to serve many masters In any line of business. The tendency Is all toward specialties and Intensification. If a man Is In the dairy business, be Is in error when he , tries to serve butter and beef from the same dairy. He needs cows for milk, cream and butter. As be branches to ward beef be grows away from these. He must select bis butter breed, and hunt a , sire with individual merit enough, to make blm conspicuous and an ancestral tendency that carries guarantee that he will produce lifter his kind. Then buy him. He may cost three or four cows, but buy blm. If be Is a calf, clearly .defined to tbe buyer's mind should be tbe bull be wants to make him and then make him that He must not be used until old enough and only then according to his age and strength. Wben bis heifer calves come with a royal right to be better than their dams. It must be seen to that their rights are recognised by being fed and cared for toward their useful cow hood. " There has been so much said and written In warning lest tbe future cow be fed so as to lay on fat and grow In- to a beef animal Instead of a desirable member of tbe dairy that tbe starva tion plan is too often followed to the permanent hurt of the subject, and careful Investigation of feeding young stock Intended for. the dairy will show more spoiled by timid underfeeding than by Judicious full feeding. A mere matter of good feeding can scarcely change tbe tendency of heredity, and If you fill the coirs belly and Its back gets fat send It to tbe butcher before yoa lose a lot of feed and care trying to make a cow of It If fed at all Intel llgently, there will be no trouble with tbe young thing that is to make a prof itable cow getting fat. That is heresy, but It Is the truth. Being well fed, she will be big enough wben old enough to make ber start toward cowbood. Let ber mate be better tban she is. Try to khave ber a cow wben 20 to 24 months aid.- Having always treated her aa a lady, treat her now as a mother as well. Keep ber clean snd give ber plen ty of' good feed and pure water.

' I think It is not too much to say that the wives and daughters of farmers In this country bold the fate of dairying In the hollow of their hand; says George E. Newell In Tbe American' Cultivator. . t'nleas one stops .to think seriously of the subject the fact of what a tremen dous Influence woman exerts In dairy ing Is not appreciated. No matter bow wise m breeder and feeder of milk stock a man may be, he U not apt to be fully successful In the home manufacture of milk without tbe Intelligent co-operation of bla wife. It is she who keeps the dairy depart ment scrupulously clean and generally watches with tbe solicitude of an ex pert the delicate processes of butter making. I sometimes think that there Is an In tuition In regard to dairy cleanliness In woman that man does- not possess that fits ber naturally for tbe bettor dairy work of the two. What a large proportion of farmers' wires and daughters need, however, la a better appreciation of modern scien tific dairy principles, ; .: ; For instance, woman by nature Is tender and sympathetic nurse, but edu cate ber as a trained nurse and she Is ten times better. -.ij. . v ; ' Science perfects the Inherent apti tude. It Is so With the faithful, conscien tious dalrywomaa of the land. Let het grasp and put-Into practice tbe scien tific principles of milk care and milk manufacture, and sir becomes an in valuable factor In the march of dairy proeress. . The wives snd daughters of farmers all over tbe United States sboaid be encouraged to study the technical side of fine butter making, to enhance the value of tbelr labor and Increase their emoluments. Tbe task of the average American farmer's wife Is none too easy, and one of tbe most prominent signs of dairy Improvement would be to see the dairy man trying to lighten the burdens of the dairy woman, . Give ber a modern, np to date dairy bouse or room in which to perform her tasks, and one profitable step baa been taken in the rlgbt direction. Dairymen, co-operate wttb your bet ter halves In thejr efforts to produce an Improved quality of butter. , If you send your milk to a manufac tory, co-operate with them ta earing for tbe product and see that they are furnished with tbe beat of utensils and appliances for this purpose. Dd" all these things with tare objects in view, first because it will be easier tor your wife, and, second, because will pay. ' . ' " Valae at Warns Milk. ' Dr. D. J.

The lost quart of tbe milking, or "stripping,' taken Immediately after milking, before It baa parted with ny of tbe animal heat I the most valua ble thing known to build up a person who Is thin and emaciated from any diseastt, ;: ';-:,.' My theory for years bas been that tbe "etrlpplngs" was nearly all cream. which I have demonstrated to be fact I also believed that when take Immediately after milking; while contained all tbe animal beat and be fore any change bad taken place, it would be absorbed at one Into the circulation without going through the ordinary process of digestion. This I have also found to be true. . I direct my patlenta to begin with one-half pint and gradually Increase tbe quantity until at tbe end of a week they are taking a quart at a time or as much as they can possibly drink with' out causing too much discomfort This should be followed up regularly twice a day. i --- , u.,1 L I have known of many eases where tbe patient could not drink cold milk or even milk which had stood for an houror two, and yet thesa persons could drink a quart Immediately after milking, without the slightest derange ment of toe digestive organs. It Is not aa uncommon thing for my patient who have followed my ln ctructlons to gain five pounds a week In weight. No ether plan I have beard of has proved so successful. I have tested this plan to hundreds ef esses in. tbe last few years, and know that there are thousands at per sons whose lives might be saved If the above instructions were faithfully fol lowed.
