A western play deal ing with frontier life is apt to bo tiresome, but last night's was not at all so. Nor was it alone the play which pleased; the players were a well balniioed troupe of artists ) who played their parts naturally and with out the usnual overdoneness seen in that class of plays. It was a good show and one worth while. Evening Statesman, Walla Walla, Wash Will appear at Shiveley's opera house Sat urday, Aug. 15. Seats 25, 60 aud 75 cents. eart to Heart Talks. By EDWIN A. NYE.

She Is the oldest daughter and takes after her mother, who was a mighty ulee woman who never had a chance. If you remember, they lived upstairs over a' store building on Main street. John Brown worked, wben he "felt woll," at painting and wall papering. He complained that be had contracted "painter's colic" and bad never got over It. 'Well, John never was very strongand that's true. And one day when he was a substitute over at the stave factory a big knife machine cut off his right hand. After that he couldn't do much except at off Jobs. Mrs. Brown? A smart little woman and ambitious. She always kept the kids looking neat and clean three of them besides Mary two boys and a girl.

Oregon City young people welcome Mr. and Mrs. Latourette back in their midst. teen years ago. "Yes, Mary Is just thirty years of age. " Well, In all that fourteen years Mary Brown has scarcely had time to raise her eyes from her sewing at the cloak factory. She got n dollar a day for several years. She Is a forewoman now and gets $9 a week. And, would you believe it, Mary Brown has kept those boys and the girl Just as well dressed as the aver age? She kept her sister In school through the grades. One brother. John junior, graduated Inst year In the high school. lie helped Mary a good deal by selling newspapers. The other boy took a course In the business col lege. nndJIary can now take a. long breath. The old man? Oh, he earned a dollar occasionally. And he was pret ty handy round the house. Died a year ago. He had a very decent burial Mary's money. That's who Mary Brown Is. And somehow, when you know what Mary has been aud done, sue la a pretty good looking woman, don't you think? Good? She's as good as gold. And I'm telling you no secret when I say one of the best men In this town Is going to marry Mary In the fall. He knows what Mary la, and he thinks a lot of her. Say, there's many an old maid In this world Just like Mary. I don't know how things would get along without some .of them. But all of them are not as lucky as Mary, inore's the pity. LIBERAL. There will be a dance at Wright's Springs Saturday, Augost loth. Ev erybody is invited to attend and en joy a good time. Quite a number from here were at Wilhoit Sunday. The rain came just in time to save nicch property from fire, but most of the farmers would have 'preferred it delayed a few weeks. POINTS FOil THE DAIRYMAN. A spring scale with a pointer for the tare of the pull now makes the weigh ing of the milk easy and quick. This scale can" be had from almost duy hardware store at a small price, aud the milk puils can be made of uniform weight b nutting n little lead on the bottom of the lighter ones. The pro ducer can buy milk record sheets, good for a month, with spaces for keeping the weights of milk from over thirty cows, morning and night, at a cost of 15 cents a year. These sheets, tacked on a board near the scale, with a peucil hanging by a string, make It easy to weigh and set down the result, which shows at a glance what every cow Is doing in quantity of milk. This, carried out through the year, will be a great surprise to the producer, disclos ing unsuspected good and bad quali ties in his cows. The yield of milk, however, is only a part of the value of the cow. To WEIGHING THE MILK really know her value one must apply the Babccck test. If lie Is not able to do this himself his state department station will test samples without cost to him, except the express charges. The average of two tests made from a two day composite sample of milk from each cow will give a very close approximation to the test of the whole year. By multiplying the number of pounds of milk for the year by the per cent of fat obtained from the two tests made on each cow at about six weeks after calving and again at about six months after calving he can know about the value of each of the cows in his herd. The advantage Is that he can understanding weed out the boarders from his herd, thereby In creasing the net profit, and can tell which are his best cows to save calves from to add to the herd.-C. M. Wins low, Secretary Ayrshire Breeders' As sociation. Feeding Young Cows. My practice In feeding heifers from calfhood has been to give rations which would Induce growth of bone and muscle, notwithholdlng a gener ous supply of fat forming material, so that the little creatures were sym metrical beauties, says a prosperous dairyman. When they began to milk I Btlll gave them enough of such food to keep them from becoming thin, believing, for the manufacture of the greatest supply of milk they were capable of producing, they should be furnished the materials in their food and not be required to take It from their own bodies, and I believe If this method of feeding were more generally prac ticed there would be less tuberculosis among tho dairy herds of the country. Flaxseed Meal For Calves. Ground flux Is an excellent substi tute for butier fat to be fed to calves. Use a heaping toaspoonful to every feed of milk while the calf Is from two to six weeks old, provided you are feeding sklnimllk. As the calf grows older gradually Increase tho flaxseed meal until the calf Is getting about a heaping tablespoonful with each feed. This flaxseed may be mixed with the milk, but never mix cornmeal or any other ground feed that contains a good deal of starch with the milk, as that Is very apt to produce scours. The reason for that Is that starchy foods must be mixed with saliva be fore digestion can take place, and any thing that Is drunk with the milk does not become mixed with saliva, and consequently It falls to become digest ed and acts as an Irritant to the ali mentary tract. Salting the Butter. It Is needless to say that nothing but the best grade of salt should be used In salting butter. I would prefer the flake salt, as It dissolves more readily and Is not so liable to make mottles, says a dairyman. Salt adds flavor to the but ter and materially Increases Its keep ing quality. Buttermakers differ as to the amount of salt which should be used In butter. Very high salting, how ever, has a tendency to detract from the fine, delicate aroma of butter, while at tho same time It tends to cover up slight defects In flavor. Salt very readily absorbs odors and must there fore be kept In a clean, dry place, where the nlr Is pure. It should be of the same temperature ns the butter when used. Fly Cover For Cowl. To keep flies off the snlmal while milking Is In progress a coarse woven fly cover ran be thrown over her, and tn a bad season such covers can be left on during the day to good ad vantage. Diarrhoea Cured. 'My father has for years been trou bled with diarrhoea, and tried every means possible to effect a core, with out avail," writes John H. Zirkle of Philippi. W. Va. "He saw Chamber lain's Colic, Cholra and Diarrhoea Roinedy advertised in the Philippi Republican and decided to try it. The res. ilt is one bottle cured him and he has not suffered with the disease for eighteen months. Before taking this remedy he vns a constant suffer er with the disease. He is now sound and well and, although sixty years old can do as much work as a young man. " Sold by Huntley Bros., Oregon City and Molalla. WOUNDS OF LIVE STOCK. How Injured Animals May Be Treated by the Farmer. By GEORGE II. GLOVER, D. V. M., Veterinarian Colorado Agricultural Col lege. Animals on the farm arc coutlnuully being Injured by accidents that hap pen In a thousand different ways. Barbed wire cuts are most frequent, and a word or two of ndvlee ns to the proper treatment In the hands of farm ers will not be amiss. The ordinary wound will heal of It self If not Interfered with. This In terference may be from germ infec tion, parasites or too much meddling with various applications on the part of man. Now, let us suppose a case. A horse has a badly lacerated leg from contact with a barbed wire. The first thing to do, of course, would be to stop the bleeding. This can be ac complished by a tight bandage of clean white muallu tied directly over the wound or above It. Often the bleeding artery will protrude, and a thread can be run under it with a needle and the artery tied. Do not use flour, dirt or cobwebs or anything of that sort ou the wound. They are unnecessary and may produce a dan gerous infection. Having stopped the bleeding, re move the clots of blood and cut off the ragged edges of muscles with shears. A pan of antiseptic solution should be provided. After having cleaned out the wound wash It thor oughly with tho antiseptic solution. See that there ,1s good drainage from the wound at the bottom. Do not al low It to start healing with a pocket that will hold pus. As It Is practically Impossible to keep a wound on a horse antiseptic, It Is not advisable for the farmer to tie up the wound. Leave It exposed to the. air ami apply the anti septic wash several times a day. Three good antiseptics are corrosive subli mate, which can be purchased at the drug stores In tablets all ready for use; formnlln and boraclc acid solution. After about a week It is well to change to dry dressing. A powder composed of equal parts of boraclc acid, charcoal and Iodoform makes a very good dry dressing. Clean air slaked lime powdered over the wound twice daily Is very satisfactory. The so called "proud flesh" Is only un healthy granulation. It Is seldom ad visable for the farmer to Interfere with this condition by using caustics. The results are usually disastrous. Better In this case to call in a qualified vet erinarian. If maggots should get Into the wound a little turpentine or chloro form will help bring them to the sur face, where they may be picked out. I did not mention sewing up the wound for the reason that in ense of the ragged barbed wire cut It is very seldom worth while to do so. A wound to heal properly must be got perfectly clean and free from germs from the start and then kept clean. Remember that It Is largely a matter of keeping dangerous germs out and giving nature a chance. Too much Interference Is often the cause of tardy healing of wounds. Feeding the Cow. Feed the cow all the hay or other roughness she will" eat, even if she Is running on good pasture. Her appetite tells her better what she needs than you can tell. THE DAIRYMAN. The following remedy Is recommend ed for the cow that slobbers: Ammonia chloride, one ounce; gum camphor, one half ounce; pulverized gentian, two ounces; add molasses to make a paste. Put some on tongue twice a day uutll relieved. . Experiments In Buttermaking. The following conclusions were reached after tests made In some On tario experiments: Sweet cream was churned lu less time than ripened cream. Buttermilk from sweet cream contained more fat than buttermilk from ripened cream. The moisture content of the butter was fulrly con stant, averaging 13.79 'per cent. But ter made from gathered cream was as good as that mnde from cream separat ed at tho factory. Drains For Dairy. Every dairy room or cream skimming room should have good drains, cement floors aud plastered and whitewashed walls, and the floor should have slope enough to carry off all water to the drain tiles. Sanltiiry methods do not mean expensive methods, but that all of the . buildings, tools, utensils and men employed must be neat and tidy and kept free from bacteria. Some of the best and most sanitary cream ery rooms are the least expensively equipped. Remedy For Ropy Milk. Ropy or Btringy milk is ofteuer than otherwise caused by the cow drinking stagnant water or water from an im pure source, such ns a marshy, mucky spring branch. The remedy Is to sup ply absolutely pure and absolutely clean drinking water, just as good as you provide for your family. In addi tion, give the cow two drams of bl sulphate of soda once a day In the drinking water. Good 8ires. As the average farmer Is not gen erally able to Invest In a herd of full blooded stock to commence with, the next best course will be to grade up from the herd owned by the use of pure bred sires of the best typo. In every herd there should be some good cows, very good ones, of real dairy type. Raise the heifer calves from these, but never from an Inferior cow. The Idea should be to get rid of the poor cows as fast as pnsslbl and re place them with the heifers that are being grown for th purpose. Granulated Sore Eyei Cured. "For twenty years I suffered from a had ense of granulated sore eves, savs Martin Bofd, of Henrietta, Ky. "In February, 1908, s gentleman asked me to try Chamberlain's Salve. I bonght one box and used abont two-thirds of it and ray eyes have not given me any trouble since." This falve is for sale by Huntley Eros.. Oregon City aud Molalla.
