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

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.

SWITZERLAND $35,000,000 DENMARK $47,500,000
Ireland $65,000,000
While to end ot fiscal year, March 31,1919 England
spent $65,000,000 in Ireland, but collected from
Ireland $170,000,000
All the Small Powers mentioned have maintained their
own Governments, their own armies, and three of them
have fleets as well. 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

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.
