WISH SRT 'ID A.PPEA R. Mr. George \\ishart, who i$ charged with conspiring with Dr. lleattie. \e • hitt to rob the Farmer:, Bank through the medium of the Keele` Mine of fitaol,- 000, has consented to eone to Toronto at ones. Ile would have come to Toron- to some deys ago on!v that he was ad- vised that such action c•n bis part wnnitl he inopportune. Arrangements for the granting of bail to \\'i.Iutrt n'ie ar- ranged yesterday and he is eapeeteci to arrive in the city to -day. Wishart ate serts that lie eau establish that he never received a dollar from the Farmers Bank and that the charge preferred against. him has no foundation in feet. Wishart was associated with 'J'rarer•s and Nesbitt in the negotiations leading nn to the t•ransfor of the Keeley Mine •to the bank. It is intimated that W. T. Lixtdsay- who had ehargc.of the sell ing of the stock when the batik was first )ir•onioted, will voluntarily present himself. In a statement ;;igen out by George Wishart in Nework yesterday, he said: "It is a faet that 1 had stoek in the Keeley aline, It is also a feet that lcni:w Messrs. Nesbitt and Travera, for- merly of the Farmers Bank. of Toronto. Tt is also a. feet that T still have money to my credit in that bank. "I know of nothing that. 1 have done on which a conspiracy charge or any other eriminla charge eould possibly be made against me in connection with the affairs of these two tnen, the 'Keeley Mine or the Farmers Batik." The Farmers Bank sunk in all about $1,156,000 in the. Keeley Mine, showing that •it ought to be a, valuable property, as there was a lot of silver put in it. 'When the mine was taken over by the Keeley Mine Company. Travers acted in the dual rote of secretary of the urine company and general manager of the Vernons 13a,tk, advancing witbouf. an- thor•izaiion upwards of $02,1,000 of the baek'e funds to the mine.

Have you a bunch to be a dairy-- man—a farmer? Well, beret-:• tate stars of Josephine —Chief Joreiiliine, they call Iter— w�ho is tit ;resent the champion; of ! merica. This is the tatiiinotut's problem: "How can 1 p oehire the greatest amount of rncil. and butter at the least expellee?" Chief Josephine, bred laid owned by the agricultural department Of the )Jnrt ere: ty of Mieeouri, at Col- umbia, it(0., baa- come -tearer solving this problemthan env otter cow on earth. it caste about 77 cents a -.ay to keep Josephine. stmt bee daily pro- duction as worth more than 54. Thus Josephine taroks: 118 much each -Iasi' as the average mechanic. She rnrtkes more eitch .lay than the average preacher, and, Outwit as much as the average college professor. The plumber, the glees blower and the head wait^ r Have scmeth og on Josephine in the way of earning., but most of the rest of its might, do worse than to work at Toseplrine's reale, Of course, the 77 Bents expense does not include all the little extra attention which Josephine receives from Van Note, foreman of the dairy barns, but as an offset 1..; this she is the mother of a calf valued at 53,000, which is not included in -the 54 estimate of her product. The year'is test which Totiephine is now undergoing will end Jen. 17, and unless sire falls below ber present daily aeterage. kFhe will exceed the world's record. In the first four anonths of the test Josephine yielded 11,536 r,.,unds of milk, or nearly ten times her weight. The highest single day's yield iwas 110',; pounde. When hall of the strenuous • year had rolled around, Josephine had to her credit :t product of 10,834 pounds of milk. This exceeded her only real competitor. A. Wisconsin cow, named Johanna, by 1,293 pounds. At eight ntarths Josephine still easily held the world's record, of 21,- 698 pounds of milk. During the en- tire eight -months elle, .maintained a daily average of 89 pounds, or 42 quarts' --103a gallons. ttT OF CHIEF JOSEPHINE. , Beginning, with the ninth .tnonttc her record ,began to drop perceptibly, but at the end of the month she was still more than a ton ahead of her C:,ntpetii or, Chief Josephine is now a little over eight yearn old, and is of the Hot - stein breed, otherwise known tis Friesian er Holland. Of c_lut'se, Josephine's diet is care - folly and systematically looked at - ter. She is fed alfalfa hay and court silage frit enarse feed, and for grrairt she is given a.ntixture of corn, bran, lineeocl meal and cottonseed meal. The amount she requires of eaoh is carefuly computed from the cheat - :teal composition of the feeds. During the walrni summer mon he Josephine consumed about thirty gal- lons of water daily. Just now half or less of this amount is all that able calsl for. The water is warmed to c1. temperature of about 70 degrees. which has been found to give bent returns in milk. Through the 'whole routine of her daily life, Josephine is never forced to rho anything; above all, elle ea. never struck or excited. Up to tt few weeks 'ago, she was milked four, times each day.: No one railliartga has been 'discontinued,: ',rho question to -day is: "Will Jose-- phine� win the tvorfld.'s champion-. fillip? Three months ago the a.n.swer to, this gtestion would have been em- phaticaly in the affirmative. But to -day they . is an air • of •uneasinesa out at the state farm. She is cham- pion still, but it remains to be seen whether she remains champion -t:t the end of the- twelvmonth. Josephine is no freak. What sale has done can be repeated in any ne,r- nta:l milk -giving cow. It is a fact that any cow can rte devlaped to give milk beyond what is to -day considered a good average. It is largely because dairymen are ignorant of the latent pcsitibilitien of their herds that the present aver- age is so low. All that is required for a start itt a cow that is normal in every re- spect. Front this point pian is the chief factor—man with a training such as ,is imparted at the college of agriculture of the University of Atl ia- souri, and at other like colleges the eountry over. .mss BUNG FORCED our Liquor Bottles in -Barrels of Frozen Water Seized in New Ontario' Cobalt, Ont., Jan. 23. --Chief Of Police C:'oidbeck returned 'this efternl,stt :from Kelso, where Constable Lefebvre seized sixty casesof liquor being shipped into the gold country.'
