: Several of Lexingtons sportsunder
standing that therj was to' be some
fun at lone last 'Sunday, traveled to
the; 'Hub" to see", the wheels move.
It was reported that there was a purse
of $10. hung up for the man who
would ride their; "outlaw cayuse" and
Lexington and Clark's Canyon riders
were after that purse. After reaching
lone it was learned that this "outlaw"
was tied up In the stable and the own
er, who was away from home, had left
strict orders that he was not to be
taken out. ' We will bet a pint of milk
with the cream on that the parties who
went from here can ride this "outlaw"
and do it easy. .

Experiments at the Oklahoma Agri
cultural college Illustrate what can tie
done In the dairy business in any sei
ttou where a sullicient number of cows
are kept to warrant starting a factory
and when the fanners will stand by
the factory and have confidence, in it a
management and see to it that it i
managed successfully.
The patrons have always been will
ing to deliver sweet cream to the
creamery, and to this one fact is at
tributed much of the success. The but
ter has been placed on nearly every
market in the south and west, and it
lias never been wanting a buyer. It
sells at the top of the market, which
enables the creamery to pay a premium--
for tha cream received. Herein
lie" the hopes of the successful devel
opment of dairying in Oklahoma. The
price that the farmers receive for their
cream depends upon the quality of the
product of the factory, and it should
be the highest aim of the cream pro
ducers whether they patronize an in
dependent creamery, a centralized
creamery or are shareholders in a co
operative creamery to deliver to.- the
creamery the best cream that they can
possibly produce.
Milk and cream take up odors and
taints from unclean 'vessels in which
they may be placed or from any sub
stance emitting tan odor. They are
easily spoiled and made unwholesome
for food if any dirt or filth gets Into
them, or If they are covered up tight
so that fresh air does not get Into
them to remove the odors and gases
which may be forming in them.

the remarkable total of 17.297.51
pounds of milk, with an average test
of 4.84 per cent of .butter fat. an
equivalent of 830.21 pounds of butter
fat. In the three years In which she
has been tested, In two of which she
was but a heifer, she gave 38,813.02
pounds of milk and 1,914.1 pounds of
butter fat, or an average of 12,927.97
pounds of milk aud (538 pounds of but-
ter fat for each of the three years, and
considerably more than 0,000 quarts of
very rich milk for the three years, in
cluding the two years' heifer record.
The feed of the past year's tost may
be inferred from the ration for Febru

pounds mixed wheat feed,1 three and
three-quarter pounds gluten, three and
three-quarter pounds oilmeal, three
pounds middlings, three and three
quarter pounds oats, with about

"Our little boy had eczema for five
years," writes N. A. Adams, Henrietta
Pa. "Two of our home doctors said
the case was hopeless, his lungs being
affected. We then employed other
doctors but no benefit resulted. By
chance we read about Electric Bitters;
bought a bottle and soon 'noticed 1m
pro'vemeht. We continued this medi
cine until several bottles were used,
when our boy was completely cured."

Coel the Milk Quickly.
Too much care cannot be exercised
to cool the milk quickly and keep It
cool, tfs cleanliness . and cold are the
two main factors in the production of
milk that will keep sweet for any rea
sonable time. Add to this a healthy
herd of cows and healthy attendants
and we have a summary of the neces
sary requisites for the production and
car of clean milk.
