Chicago Alderman Owes His Election
To Chamberlain's Cough Remedy.
' "I can heartily and conscientiously
recommence Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy for affections of the throat
and lungs," says Icon. John Shenick,
220 So. Peoria St., Chicago. "Two
years ago during a political campaign,
I caught cold after being overheated,
which irritated my throat and I was
finally compelled to stop, as I could
not speak aloud. In my extremity a
friend :advised_ me to use Chamber-
lain's Cough Remedy. I took two
doses that afternoon and could not
believe my senses when I found the
next morning the inflammation had
largely subsided. I took several doses
that day,. kept right on talking
through the campaign, and I thank
this medicine that I won my seat in
the Council." This remedy is for sale.

28 DAIRY COWS ON 50 ACRES.
Gross Annual Returft Of Over $3,000.
(Weekly Sun)
T. G. Raynor, of the Ontario Tarin,
ers' Institute staff, Who is on Institute
work in Minnesota at present,
furnishes The Sun with these parti-
culars of a honey -making dairy herd
in the neighboring State of Wis-
consin ;
"In the rieh La Crosse Valley, and
about 12 miles from the city of La
Crosse, is the town of Mt, Salem,"
says Mr. Raynor, "This town is not-
ed as being the home of Hamlin Gar-
land, one of the world's best magazine
writers. About a mile from the vil-
lage is a 50 -acre farm, owned and
managed by H. D. Griswold, and
which last year gave him a gross in-'
come of $3,000, $2,800 of which carne
from a herd of twenty-eight dairy
cows. Mr. Griswold has a family of
seven, and keeps a hired man and
servant girl. He and his boys have
put up their own barns, which have
been constructed in four sections as
increase of business demanded.
About twelve years ago Mr. Griswold
had four grade cows, which averaged
265 pounds of butter in the year. He
now has 23 cows averaging nearly 450
lbs. of butter, and 20 head of young
cattle. He keeps horses enough to do
the work, and feeds some pigs. Last
year he sold $300 worth of pigs, got
$100 for potatoes, $50 for hay, $200 for
increase of stock, and $2,800 worth of
butter fat. Thin totals a little over
$3,000. To produce this, besides what
he grew on the farm and ten acres ad-
ditional of fair ground pasture, he
bought $450 worth of bran.
"You naturally ask hots he does
this and educates his family at the
same time.
"Two of his boys are attending the
State Agricultural College and Uni-
versity. In the first place there is a
good, deal in the man. He is a geni-
al, kindly spirited man, as is every-
where indicated in his well -lighted,
waren, and white -washed stable. He
is a business man, and looks closely
after all details. He has weigh scales -
Babcock tester, cream separator re,
cords, two silos, two galvanized iron
water tanks, concrete floors and
mangers, and a manure carrier. His
farm of fifty acres is made very rich
with stable manure. He grows good
corn and fills his silos, and still has a
lot of dry corn fodder. He grows his
corn for husking, and oats, which he
mixes anil grinds together in equal
parts, and adds by weight as much
bran. He feeds his grain mixture in
such quantities as his cows eat up
clean quickly. He feeds silage morn-
ing and night, and what dry fodder
they want. They get a little mixed
hay at noon. At noon he waters.
They don't drink so much, as they get
silage twice a day.
"He graded up his herd by the pur-
chase of a pure-bred Guernsey bull,
which he mated with his grade Short-
horn cows. He has kept right along
that line, and now has a few pure-
bred Guernseys, as well as a very high
grade lot of cows. Two old Jersey
cows are also found in his stables.
"This, in brief, is the history of a
man who is masking two blades of
grass grow where one grew before,
and he is certainly a public benefac-
tor. He is a enthusiastic farmer, and
he and his family enjoy life upon the
farm."

The dairy cow to wake us a profit
must be housed in a comfortable ate
bee these cold wintry days, Thus we
admonished at an institute a few days
ago, writes L. W, Llghty in National
Stockman. "But," said a practical
farmer, "with feeds so high and dairy
products so low, we cannot afford the
expense of building such stables as the
speaker advises. Our income does not
warrant such an outlay."
Then another practical farmer spoke
thus: "I know my cows were very un-
comfortable, and I was uncomfortable
milking and doing the chores. While
the weatherboarding acted as a wind
break, the temperature on the inside
of the stable was nearly as low as on
the outside, and I knew it was un-
profitable, but I began to feel that it
was inhuman. I collected old newspa-
pers (they were plenty after the cam-
paign) and pretty heavily covered .the
entire inside, and over all this I put
some heavy hardware paper that cost
me but little. Next I went to the saw-
mill and purchased some waste boards
very cheaply and boarded up the en-
tire inside of the stable. Now the sta-
ble is perfectly comfortable, the cows
eat less and give more milk, and, while
I keep no particular account, I know
those cows have already paid all I in-
vested in the extra milk produced, and
on Sunday morning when I go to
church there is just a little less weight
on my conscience."
Food Value of Cheese.
Undoubtedly many people underesti-
mate the, value of cheese as a human
food. Comparing it pound for pound
with beef, it furnishes nearly twice as
much food value. Cheese is composed
of about 37 per cent water, 34 per cent
fat, 24 per cent casein and 5 per cent
ash, while meat contains about 00 per
cent water, 15 per cent protein, 20 per
cent fat and 5 per cent ash. Full
cream cheese well cured is a whole-
some, digestible and comparatively
cheap food.
A Prolific Mincer.
Helena Burke, not only the founda-
tion cow of the Helena Burke family,
but also one of the foundation cows of
Brookside herd, is one of • the few
twenty-five pound cows having three
daughters with A. 11. 0. records aver-
aging over twenty pounds each, says
Holstein -Friesian Register. At the time
HELENA BURSE.
of making her official record of 25.45
.pounds butter in seven days she pro-
duced in one day 98% pounds milk, and
later. at twelve years old, she gave in
one day during an official test 98%
pounds milk. In 1897 she produced in
four months 10,000' pounds milk, an
average for 122 days of 82.78 pounds
per day. Three two-year-old heifers
sired by her son, De Iiol Burke, at-
tained in official test the unparalleled
average of 18% pounds each.
Clean Milk.
Stop the dirt from getting into the
milk. This eau be done easily and
quickly. If the milker will carry with
him a damp cloth and carefully wipe
off the udder and the parts immediate-
ly around it the trouble will to a great
extent be prevented. All of the coarser
particles of dirt will be rubbed off
and the finer particles of dust damp-
ened so that they will not fall into the
pail. This work will require but a few
moments of extra time and prevent
much after trouble in the way of sour
and ill flavored cream. The cow should
be milked in a place in which the air
is free from dust. In winter or when
the cows are kept in the stable never
do anything to stir up dust or strong
smells just before milking.
Dairying In Friesland.
The cows in Friesland are not fed
any grain during the summer, except
in extremely dry seasons. About Oct.
1 most of the dairy farmers put a few
of the best cows in the stables and feed
them grass, mostly of the third cut.
The rest of thein are blanketed and
left out until the weather becomes
very wet and cold, when they are taken
to the stable. They do not leave it
again before spring. The feed through
the winter consists mainly of hay, oil
cake and cornmeal.
Prevention of Batter Mold.
As a preventive of mold on butter the
following practice is highly recom-
mended: Soak the parchment paper
Iinings immediately before using in a
saturated brine to which have been add-
ed three ounces of pure formalin to the
gallon of brine. Place the paper in
the boxes without drying. Keep the
brine in a special covered vessel. Boil
the brine every week, and add fresh
formalin in the same proportion as at
first.
Mating of Dairy Cattle.
. Bodily vigor or constitution is best
Indicated by the structure of the ab-
dominal muscles. A strong, powerful
lower belly Is almost invariably an in-
dication of great vitality. If either a
bull or cow lack in this particular do
not breed them if you can help

Everyone With Sore Throat

Cures. "I Can recommend Nerviline
very
highlyhlv for sore throat, writes
Mr. R. McKenzie of St. George. T
once had a very sore throat and my
chest was full of cold and soleness.
Every sough hurt me. 1 cured my-
self quickly by rubbing my vilest and
throat vigorously with Nerviline and
using it also as a gargle. I believe
Nerviline to be the hest general rctne-
dy for emergent sickness that one can
get. We have used it for twenty
years in our house." Mee 25e.
