I ! .HT jit VALUES OF DAIRY PRODUCTS Leader In Fight Against H. C. L. Judged From Economy and Nour ishment Furnished. S!ncp tlu hljrh cost of livin? Is still a pruhleni aiiii since New York is one of the two foremost dairy states of the union, the workers In dairying and home economics at the state college at Ithaca, N. Y are calling renewed at tention to the relative cheapness and high food values of dairy products. To eat these products is to increase the prosperity of the state and to decrease the drain on the pocket hook, because, the folks at Ithaca say, there Is a douhle advantage to the Xew York housewife, from the view point of economy and of nourishment. If she makes a larger use of them In the family diet. Not only do these foods contain the growth-promoting substances needed by children, but they are among the cheapest foods of animal origin in re spect to protein and lime contenl. Whole milk, skim-milk, cottage cheese and American Cheddar, or common "store" cheese, are good, cheap foods and the workers at Cornell advocate their use. PROTECTION FOR DAIRY COW BETTER TO KEEP GOOD BULLS Farmer Sold Registered Holstein for $50 That Afterwards Proved to Be Worth $5,000. (Prepared by the United States r-epart-ment of Agriculture.) When a certain farmer a few years ago sold his registered Holstein bull to his local butcher no records had been made by auy of the bull's daughters. Within a year 11 of the daughters frtshenid at the ages of two and three. Records were then made of milk and butterfat produc tion, and to the astnul-hment of every body the average milk production was 14,502 pounds and the average butter fat production was ""3 pounds. But before these records were avail able the bull was dead and his hide had become leather. Because there were no records, a ?.".000 bull had been sold for $.. The cow-testing association tests the dams and daugh ters, and the bull nidation makes High-Clasa Purebred Bull. It practicable to keep a bull until his daughters have been tested. These two associations would have saved that bull. Registration alone cannot guaran tee production. Registered dairy bulls should be backed by good pro duction records. Without record backing they may be very well bred, but there Is nothing to prove 1L COVERING FOR CREAM CANS Great Part of Value It Lost If Product Is Exposed to Sun While Be ing Hauled. A great part of the value of keep ing cream cool on the farm and at the station or creamery Is lost If the cream is exposed to the direct rays of the sun while being hauled from the farm to the point of sale. Far too few people stop to realize the Importance of cov ering their cream cans when brlnglug them to town. Expensive Jacketed cans are not a necessity to keep the cream cool. In summer weather Just an ordinary piece of wet burlap thrown over cans will keep the temperature of the cream as much as 20 degrees below what It would rise to If left un covered while being transported over the average hauling distance. DRYING UP COWS NEGLECTED Some Animals Inclined to Keep Up Heavy Milk Flow Until Calving Time Cars It Needed. Some cows are Inclined to keep up the heavy milk flow until calving time, and the dairyman Is apt to neg lect do ing them up. Some cows dry themselves while others must be dried up by the milker. Care must be taken or the odder will be Injured. The best practice Is to cut off the grain feed, giving no grain at all, and In some cases giving less of other feeds. The cow should be milked only once a day for a few days, and then the period lengthened until only once in four or five days. This should be kept up until the flow has entirely ceased. Much attention should be given to feeding calves If they are to becomf good dairy animals. The darkened stable by day and pas ture by n'.ht for the dairy cows helu boost the ( .para check. Exposure to Cold Rains Is Often More Injurious Than Colder Weather of Winter. The dairy cow often suffer the most from exposure to the weather be fore real winter has begun. After steady cold comes the cow Is gen erally stabled. Exposure to cold rains In November Is often more Injurious to the animal than the colder but dry weather later in the winter. The dairy cow Is not like the fat steer, protected from cold by a layer of fat. As a result bad weather causes a big drop In milk production. So long as the weather Is dry It Is Just as well to leave the cow outside nights, but every cold rain should find her protected. The main thing is to have tight walls so there is no draft or wind and a good roof. Care should be taken to arranging the stalls In the form of a platform of the right length and a gutter of sufficient depth to hold the manure. The cleanliness of the milk depends to a considerable extent upon having the barn built so the cow will keep herself clean. Clemson College Bulletin. FOUNDATION FOR DAIRY HERD Young Calves From Good Cows Art Satisfactory for Start, Say Gov ernment Specialists. (Prepared by the United States Depart ment of Agriculture.) It Is not always necessary to pur chase all mature animals In establish ing a herd. Young calves from good dairy cows are a satisfactory founda tion for starting a dairy herd. In the opinion of specialists. Ordinarily the method advocated Is to grade op com mon cows with a purebred bull, requlr Ing a number of years of patient selec tion and breeding a period sometimes discouraging to an energetic dairyman. Frequently this causes farmers who want results too quickly to change breeds. How Asbestos Is Produced. The finest asbestos, and the great er part of the world's supply, comes from Quebec. Asbestos Is a fibrous mineral that can be spun and woven Into fabrics as fine as silk, which are unnfTected by temperatures of from 2.000 to 3.000 degrees F. It Is found In layers filling fissures In certain ser pentine rocks. It Is believed that, when the rock was forming and still hot. water penetrated the fissures, wid ened them and dissolved some of the silica and magnesia. On drying, these crystallized as a hydrated silicate of magnesia, forming threadlike crystals building up from opposite walls rf the fissures and meeting In the middle. No one has yet discovered how fine ly asbestos fibers can be split. A microscope magnifying 000 diameters revealed fibers that ore estimated to he five oiie-mllllonths.of an Inch thick. illlllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllilllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllillllllllU llllllllllllllllllllllllllll Cap't T.

IT IS CHEAPER TO BE FREE THAN IN SLAVERY. Liberty has cost only $0 per capita, per annum, in Greece and Serbia, $7.50 in Bulgaria, $9 in Switzerland $13 in Sweden, $14 in Portugal, $15 in Norway while in IRELAND British militarism costs about $40 per capita per annum. Ireland is large enough, populous enough and rich enough to run her own national business in a business way The money Ireland paid England last year could have run the governmental business of Bulgaria, Norway, Switzer land and Denmark combined paying for all their admin istration charges, their police, ships, and guns. Ireland means to spend her own money, for her own people, in her own land; developing her anthracite and bituminous coal, her enormous peat deposits, her marvelous possibilities in the linen and leather and many other industries, as well as in developing her great waterpowers and using her un rivalled harbors. IRELAND DOES MORE BUSINESS THAN MANY OTHER SMALL NATIONS IN 1917 did a business of - $47,500,000 " $01,500,000 " " " $75,000,000 " $115,000,000 " " $205,000,000 " " $210,000,000 " " $325,000,000 " $375,000,000 SERBIA GREECE BULGARIA PORTUGAL ROUMANIA NORWAY DENMARK SWEDEN While Ireland did a business of $820,000,000 but more than 95'; of it was done with England These figures prove the natural wealth of Ireland. The indisputable facts above presented clearly prove that Ireland can stand alone and pay her own way as n Nation. Judged by any standard, Ireland is equipped for freedom. She asks no favor save that of a hearing from America, now that the hour for the Irish Republic has struck. England has shut off Ireland from direct inter course with the outside world, with the result that Eng lish middlemen secure not only double freight charges and commissions on Ireland's exports and imports to and from other countries, but also England compels Ireland to buy in the dearest market and to sell in the cheapest, with great consequent loss to Ireland. Irish independence means an increased trade with America- to the advantage of both countries. A free Ireland with a normal population of from fifteen to twenty millions of people, trading with all the world as a matter of right, instead of with England as a matter of compulsion, would mean another great market in which America could sell to advantage many hundreds of millions of dollars' worth of American producls"anniially and from which she could buy directly products now ox ported by Ireland, but which reach England alone. Irish freedom means prosperity and peace and good will to all the world. A failure to do justico to Ireland means that there will be no just or permanent peace.
