Elliott of the Mon tana Dairymen's Association, presents figures to show that the total amouut of motley invested iu the creamery industry iu Montana, exclusive of laud, for tlio last five years, has in creased from $100,000 to $800,000. These figures are a comparison of the years 1U03 and 1008. The number of creameries valued at $5000 each hns increased from 750 to 6000 and tlie number -of hand separators in use from 75 to 600. Iu 1903 there were 60 dairy barns and in 1908 there were 400. Spokesman-Review. Why Not Plainer Language? It is easy to beliove the things sci otitists toll us when Iwe don't under stand what they are talking about and many u lunuer 1ms put dowu. the re ports from an experiment station after having lead them with a foiling of awe, and yet with a total luck ot un dorstandiue of what he had road, says Thomas Alphrum in f urm Lite. Many a time have 1 been totally at. a loss to understand what was meant by page alter page which I Jiave eu doavored to read. I did not doubt the truth of the language, but it was not expressed so that I could understand it. Low Wheels Save Stiengrth The wagon with low wheels is i great saver of strength, says Win. H Underwood in Farm Life It is the last iuch or two ot the lift that taxes most the strength. In the loading ami hau ling of hogs, stone, earth, pota toes, apples, com todrtor, grain in the sheaf, liav, farm machinery, mid, in fact, anything, the waaon with low wheels has so many advantages that the ordinary high-wheeled wagon is hardly to be considered. By the U6e of a low-wheeled wagon one man chu frequently do the work which would otherwise require two. Sap Running Out oi Cherry Trees There are a great many Hist ant es where jsfcerry trees will have the bark cracked and the sap pour out in the form of a gomlike substance for the greater portion of tl e year. As the trees will not bear, the owners are often worried as to the cause. These trees are affected with what is culled gumosis, a peculiar coudi tiou rather than a disease resulting from any one ot a dozen different in juries or diseases. If your soil is not adapted to cherries, or the w inters are too severe or late, or yon ha"e bad at taclis of slugs, or aphis, or the tree is injured by late spring frosts, it wi frequently commence to gumosis as we say. The best thing you can do is to remove tin difficulty if possible, aud then cut away all the gum or gummy patches on the tree. Care fully wash these injured places, cracks or broken patches with a solu tion of Bordeaux mixture, and aftor this has dried coat the surface with orange shelac to keep out further in foctidta. Scrubbing the bark with lye water or soapy suds is frequently iclpful. As a last resort the first of June when the growth is active take a pen knife and with the Bharp point Blit tlio bark from branches to root. This will give the trees a chance to grow and remove the congested condi tion and with proper cultivation the tree will come out all right. Dairy Dou'ts Don't neglect saltiug stock regular ly and otteu and see that they have aoeess to plenty of water of suitable temperature. These are necessities at this time of shifting stock from pas ture to stable feeding and especially when animals are being fed heavily on dry fodder iu yard or field, it may prevent impaction of the rnmni. Don't decive yourself by leaving the hay chutes and stairways, etc., above your stock open and think yon-are giving your stable proper ventilation. You simply allow the escapo of the little dry, pure air of the stable and retain the damp ' foul air which al ways settles to the bottom because of its extra weight. Don't negle'ot the young calf. It deserves more than a ration of milk twice a day if it is to be the most profitable dairy animal. Teaoh it early to eat oats and it will then Women as Well as Ken are Made Miserable by Kidney anil Bladder Trouble. Kidney trouble preys upon the mind, discouragesandlessensambition; beauty, vigor ana cneenui ness soon disappear when the kidneys are out of order or dis eased. Kidney trouble has become so prevalent that it is not uncom mon for a child to be born afflicted with weak kidneys. If the child urinates too often, if the urine scalds the flesh, or if, when the child reaches an age when it should be able to control the passage, it is yet afflicted with bed-wetting, depend upon it, the cause of the diffi culty is kidney trouble, and the first step should be towards the treatment'of these important organs. This unpleasant trouble is due to a diseased condition of the kidneys and bladder and not to a habit as most people suppose. Women as well as men are made miser able with kidney and bladder trouble, and both need the same great remedy. The mild and the immediate effect of Swamp-Root is soon realized. It is sold by druggists, in fifty cent and one-dollar Gize bottles. You may have a sample bottle by mail tree, also pamphlet telling all about bwamp-Koot, hou sip-rx. including many of the thousands of testi monial letters received from sufferers who found Swamp-Root to be just the remedy needed. In writing Dr. Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N. Y.,fbe sure and mention this paper. Don't make any mistake, but remember the name, Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, and the address, Binghamton, N. Y., on every bottle. "Don't hitch your horse in the rain." use our free stable room. E.

Then don t forget that this calf will eat much more hay if you keep it supplied with frosh water than it otherwise would, aud those are ver' important steps toward the development of the dairy farm and capacity mid conse queutly the general future usefulness of the dairy animal. Don't negloct or put off grooming, as it nelps to keep animals in condi tion and may keep them from getting lousy. Don't teach the cows to expect their feed at milking time. Don't forget to brush udders Ijofore beginuing to milk, and don't allow the milk to stand in pails or cans un til it cools. Allowing it to stand in the barn while feeding hay, etc., to stock means to increase its dust and bacterial content as well aa diminish the quautity of cream aa a result of separating at low temperature. Re move from barn and separate at once Don't neglect stirring' the cream in the storage can whenever adding f resli to it. And don't forget to siir well the whole lot before turning it over to the cream gatherer. If you do for get this, done blame any one but yourself if vour test is not satisfac tory. Don't ullow the oream to freeze if you can prevent it, bat if it does freeze don't pour iu boiling wa ter to thaw it, bi t rather set the can into a larger one of warm water. G. A. Freeman in Pacific. Homestead. Breed for Merit, Not Display Agriicultural fairs aud stock shows have lots to do with stimulating an interest iu better farming. This goes without the saving, yet the pr- ruinm list induces tendencies which may b arried too far. It is evidently -with regard to the;.; that Willt-t M. Hays, assistant secretary of agriculture, has tins to say : 'I do not think much of fat stock and fancy shows. Instead of the most intelligouce being displayed m breed ing ornamental plans and fancy or net animals, the highest science and art should be extensively employed in breeding those staple crops aud do mestic animals wlinli represent so much ot our wealth prolnetiou. S ates could well afford to inaugurate a system of live stock pedigr e rec ords based on perfornmu. e, measure meuts, fecundity, etc. County CO' operative associations might record the individual characters, somewhat as is done in the Island of Jersey with cattle, and the state might properly pay for supervising, recoirline and tabul.'v i;)g the records of qn:ili ies and prefnraiance. Under our present sys tem, we are losing all knowledge of valuable blood ot too many auimals ot peculiar power and value, and we ere emphasizing the blood of too man; am uuils winch can win on their form n the show ring, but would tail iu a contest on the block, at the milk pail, or on the work team. We base too many breeding records on the show and too few on intrinsic value." ORES HAM. The diphtheria scare is over aud the sohool library lias been oponed to the public.
