Burn all smutty corn stalks. A gallon of milk weighs eleven pounds. Oats fed on the farm are as well not threshed. Close croppiug of pastures is not deemed advisable. The most restless cows in the herd are usually the least profitable.

Skimming the milk at' the right time often prevents rancid butter. A good dairy cow will give milk ten months in the year. The demand for cattle bred to give milk is constantly improving. Dairying has made the farmers of Wisconsin rich, and will do the same for those of Kansas. It pays to give the cows a little extra feed as soon as tho pasturage begins to fail.

Keep them in good Condition. Massachusetts cows average a higher yeild of milk than any others. The annual average yield to each cow is 480 gallons. Ten quarts of milk to the pound of butter, is the Iowa creameries' average, while those of New York report a trifle better one. A cow that is in a fevered state will give tainted milk, and if her milk As Brother Pomeroy was absent last Sunday afternoon, we had prayer meeting conducted bv Sister Hafer of Admire.

Smel- ser. should be mixed with that of others say that his ace would prevent his accepting either the secretaryship of tho treasury or of state should either be offered him, and Speaker Reed should never have been put on the list as probable member of the cabinet. Major McKinley would doubtless be only too glad to have the strong personality of Speaker Reed added to his famfly of official advise, and will probably tender him a place in the cabinet, but without any idea that it will be accepted.

Even if his party did not need his services In tho house, Mr. Reed would not be likely to be in the cabinet. The speakership of the house is a much bigger place than the best position in the cabinet, and can, be made to serve the ambition of a man who is a candidate for his party's presidential nomination, as Mr. Reed unquestionably is, to a much greater extent. County Scat News.

From tlic Km porta Pally Gazet te. Judge DeCamp, of Allen, was in town Monday. There are already four candidates for the Emporia postoflice. Postmaster McCovvn, who has been quite ill for soine time, is at his post of duty again. Mr.

Vm. Kretsinger has been given the principalship of the Cottonwood Falls schools. Roy Evans, Emporia's base "ball pitcher, has signed' with the St. Louis Browns for next year. Thanksgiving day will be generally observed by all churches with morning services.

Tom and Jerry and err-nor will be served down town. Chas. Chambers, the man who was brought from Iowa a few days ago by Tom O'Connor, charged with stealing a buggy and harness from a man near OJpe, was tried before Justice Combs Saturday and bound over to the district ccurt. A liryan picture still hangs over Commercial street. That man was beaten by the largest popular vote ever recorded in human history and by the biggest majority in the American electoral college.

Let it hano- there as a horrible example. Henry Schwintz, of Olpe, was arrested Saturday evening and taken before Justice Combs for a preliminary hearing. The complaint was made by two of his neighbors charging him with having disturbed their peace, lie was found guilty and fined $5 and costs, a total of 27.00. A person would have thought the town was on fire by the way the fire bell rang Saturday morning. The fire was at John Ilenning's packing establishment and in the smoke house at the rear.

Little damage was done to the building, it being iron with nothing to burn but the frame work used in its construction. Now that the Pops have the legislature, what's the matter with John Madden for United States senator? John Madden is a better man than any one mentioned for the senate and he has a right to make a stiff claim for party honor. He made a Cood fiVlit and deserves honorable THE IIPH 0VED NEW GOODRICH, I-atest Important News From the National Capital. l-'rom our Ucgulur Correspondent. Wasiiinotov, Nov.

1). Senator 15 tier makes it very plain that ho thinks tho Populists emerged from the campaign in mush better condition than their allies, th Democrats, did. In fact, he thinks, and says, that the result virtually wipes out tho Democratic party; that the old Democrats will mostly become Re publicans and the silver Democrats Populists, and that tho next presidential campaign will bo fought between tho Populists and Republicans, lie also says that tho Democrats were responsible for Rryau's defeat Not a little comment has been caused in Washington by the defeat of tho two men who were ac knowledged leaders of tho A. P. in the house Representative Linton, of Michigan, and Ilainer, of Nebraska during the last session of congress.

It wan supposed that both these men owed their seat in the house to the preponderance of A. P. A. sentiment in their districts; yet in a campaign in which tho A. P.

A. made itself more conspicuous than ever before, they fajl of re-election. Somewhat puzzling, isn't it? i't Treasury officials are keeping mum about the dismissal of Beveral officials, one of them a woman, refusing to say more than that the dismissals were "for the good of the Krvicty' but there is no doubt that tho dismissals were connected with tho actions and language, especially the latter, of the ex-ollicials in the campaign just closed. They were all for Jiryan and they are accused of having talked "hot stuff," publicly and privately against Secretary Carlisle's financial policy and his attitude in the campaign. While the conferences of General Vitx Lee with President Cleveland and Secretary Olney have raised a fresh crop of Cuban rumors, there in nothing in sight to indicate any change of policy by this government.

Some think that President Cleveland, will, in his annual message to congress, make some positive recommendations upon the subject, but it is more probable that he merely state tho situation," as shown by General Lee's report and leave the responsibility of the action in the hands of congress, and of his successor. The Republicans arc in a state of jubliatiou over MeKinley's election, which is likely to continue until after the distribution of patronage gets fully under way. Then we shall have the kicking which is always the striking feature of the first few months of every administration. They appear to fully realize that the retention of the favor of the voters who have given them another leate of power depends upon their ability to give tho country the prosperity they have promised, and there is no doubt of their intention to do their level best in that direction. The claim that the boom in industrial uiul commercial circles which started as soon as tho results of the election was known, will be permanent, and the people, regardless of their politics, are most heartily with them in hoping that it may be.

His personal expenses for hotel bills, railroad fare, were $10, making a total of $77.50. II. D. Dickson, the successful candidate for 'county attorney, spent $27.35 $25 going to the committee and $2.35 for personal expenses.

II. Mapes, who was re-elected county commissioner, gave the Republican committee $25 and spent $2 for printing. L. R. Wight, defeated candidate for representative, spent $00.50 on the campaign.

In order that the butter may have a good ilavor, the milk and cream should be removed as far from the odors of the kitchen as possible. Two-thirds of a cow's food keep up her body, the other third makes the milk. Therefore give her the best of food and carefully-balanced rations. The poultry business has become a leading industry in many of the states, and the profits are large when the amount of capital invested is considered Experiments at the New York station show that a flock of hens will produce 30 per cent, more eggs unattended by ft rooster than with one, and that the unfertilized eggs keep longer.

A surprise party was given on Carl Lynch at his home last Saturday night, Sunday being his birthday. A crowd of nearly twenty-five were present and supper was served about 10 o'clock, after which games were played until midnight, and it being Sunday, (Carl's birthday) they gave him a good pounding and departed for home, wondering where the next good time would be. think it funny, but the man caught once doing it should never again be trusted about a horse.

If your horses are continually scratching their necks it is not unlikely that they are lousy. Examine them carefully, and if you find lice make an ointment of oil of tar, sulphur and lard, one, two and four parts, respectively, and rub into the hair along the neck and other parts which lice infest, once or twice a week. Two Surprise Parties. Quite a surprise party was given in honor of Miss Bertha Hunt last Saturday everting, at the home of Postmaster Stinson and wife, by Mr. A.

One explanation has it that Mr.

Carlisle is already in accord with the financial policy of the Republicans and will join that party, and another is that tho exception of Carlisle's friends is based upon the well-known fiends between prominent Kentucky Republicans, which they believe will prevent any Republican being able to command a suflicient number of votes to be elected senator, and will result in the election of Mr. Carlisle as a comprise man by the votes of gold Democrats and Republicans. In the speculations as to who will be members of President-Elect MeKinley's cabinet, three names of prominent Republicans have already been eliminated.
