The cows should be well bedded both for comfort and cleanliness. Stall fed cows average higher in total yield of milk and fat than those at pasture. Some herds give more than one pound of milk for each pound of dry matter in the food. Milk consumption is increasing faster in the United States than butter consumption. The cost of milk production is said to be greater in 2 year olds, decreasing gradually up to 4 years. In the dairy herd at the Ithaca, N. V. experiment station, the period of graftation for cows varied from 261 to 296 days. About the average period is 280 days. MILK RECORDS Several methods of estimating yearly records from a few weighings and test have been proposed. The only absolutely accurate way to tell the amount of milk and butter fit produced by a cow is to weigh and test the milk at every milking town vary so much in the amount and quality of their milk from one milking to another, owing to variations, many of which are uncontrollable, that entirely accurate results can not be secured by weighing and testing the milk secured at a few milkings and using the results as a basis for estimating the total production for a lactation period or even a month. Many dummies, however, do not feel they can take the time to secure daily records; nor is this necessary if it is simply desired to obtain a reasonably accurate estimate of a cow's performance at the end of the year. An approximate record is sufficient for comparing one cow with another or, for determining whether a sow is up to the profit standard—C. B. Lane, United States department of agriculture. A Farmer, a Pipe and a Load of Hay. Next time Farmer William Fox of Burlington, N. J., takes a smoke he will carefully note "where he is at" when he strikes the match. Recently he filled his pipe for a good puff. It happened that he was on top of a load of straw on the road. The match ignited the straw and the farmer had to scramble lively to save his life. The blaze quickly enveloped the dry straw and Fox, in order to save his wagon, unhatched the horses and overturned the load, which was consumed in a jiffy. We Want Business.

Dairying entails tedious work during every month of the year and every day in the week, early and late; but no industry on the farm gives such satisfactory results, which is demonstrated by the large number of farmers who are annually being added to the list of dairymen. The dairy farm provides a market for the products grown, and the dairy farmer need not utilize anything that can not be grown on the farm. Dairying gives the farmer great control of his operations, and the work is also educational. It leads to the use of better stock, and the farms are gradually being populated of the scrub cattle, which have caused so much loss in the past, the pute breeds rapidly coming into use over all portions of the country. If tests are so conducted as to teach farmers the actual cost of the product they will all to the value of the high record towns. I Mr. Weller Sr. Dickens, famous character who lived his son Samuel to beware of widows could see the sixty eight a mutual report of the regimental general, which was issued yesterday he would look up the section dealing with the remittance of widows and find no matter to replace his heart. In the marriage market the demand for widows has been on the decrease for many years and the analysis for 1905 shows that the rate of decrease is accelerating. And this applies also to the marriage of widowers, as the following table shows: MARRIAGE RATE PLR 1000 1870 .169 594 1830 .155 520 1890 .144 440 1000 .144 440 1007 126 383 The general marriage rate in England and Wales increased in 1905 by 01, but the figure was 0.5 below the average rate of the past ten years. The actual number of marriages in the year was 260,742, a rate of 13.3 per thousand of the population, which was estimated at 34,238,419. The lowest marriage rates are in the agricultural districts, while the counties with the highest marriage rates are coal mining and manufacturing centers. A very striking feature of the report is the fact that the year shows the lowest proportion of marriages of men who were minors since 1818 and of women since 1850. In every 1,000 marriages only 418 of the men were under 21 years of age. The number in 1880 was 77.8. Only 551 divorced persons married during the year, and the previous three years giving 479, 522, and 573, respectively. In twenty cases divorced men married divorced women. The general tendency to raise the age of marriage is borne out by the statistics, which show that the mean age for men was 28.56 and that of women 26.38. The births for the year numbered 929, 293, a rate of 27.2 per 1,000—the lowest since records were taken. In 1870 the rate was 353; in 1900 it was 29.6. The figures for the typical East and West end metropolitan boroughs are instructive. Per 100,000 women aged 15-45 years there were 15,631 children born in the East end boroughs, as against only 6,053 in the West end boroughs, but of these numbers there died in the first five years of life 4,070, or 200 per 1,000 births, in the eastern area, as compared with 1,031, or 242 per 1,000 births, in the western area. The general death rate—152 per 1,000 persons—was the lowest on record. Among the deaths of 1005 were fifty-eight of reputed centenarians—eleven men and forty-seven women. Influenza claimed 0,953 death, or a rate of 204 per 1,000,000 of population, the average or the five years having been 206. In the year under notice spotted fever caused seventy-one deaths. SOME EASTER RECIPES. Drawing Mottoes on Eggs—Take a quill and use melted lard for ink. The dye takes no effect on the lines or letters traced in grease, and they are consequently left white. Calico Eggs.—Wrap the eggs carefully and tightly in bits of bright colored calico that you think will fade. Boil for half an hour. Paterns and colors will be transferred to the egg shell. Coloring With Onion Peel.—The eggs may be wrapped tightly in the peel of red onions, or they may be put into the water with the onion peel and boiled for half an hour. While the eggs are still hot from boiling, take a little lard on a rag and rub them all over, then polish, and they will have a much better appearance. The Easter dyes sold in all stores at five cents the package, give some beautiful colors, and one has only to follow directions on the package. Pig Shell Basket.—Break the shell carefully in the middle; clean and even the edges as smoothly as possible. With a sharp darning needle, make four equivalent holes in the edges; take the narrowest ribbon that comes, or bright colored cords of wool or silk, and draw through the holes, making small bows or knots on outside of the shell, and fasten them with a stitch on top where the ribbon crosses. Line the shell with pretty pink cotton, and fill with tiny candies. Or take the shell when finished and fill with lavera of cotton batting and soak the cotton with water; on top of the wet batting now rape or mustard or cross seeds; hang in a warm, sunny corner and keep the cotton moist. If this is done a week or ten days before Easter, the little basket will look very pretty with the tiny leaves and tendrils hanging over the edges. FEMININE COSTUMES. The Dutch feminine costumes are too complex for words. The women's custom is a trifle too complex for verbal the concentrated feeds. Enough can be description, as feminine belongings usually are; but the white lace cap which covers the head from eyebrows to nape of neck and from ear to ear, curling out in rounded wings on each side of her cheeks is always a conspicuous and invisible portion of a woman's attire. It may possibly be that on sunny this cap is a trifle whiter or stiffer or drier than on us. Kids, but the inflation of a very amputent. The ladies assume us there is a vast room in the quality of the net in the amount of handwork employed, but this is made no spartal mole at that time and outline the cannot touch it destination between these caps and the cloth lattice or Marken or on ice Dan, between Sunday and Monday caps in Volendam it records now what ever. For the rest of the costume time Holland asks above all things, apparently, a very flat, narrow coat, surmounting enormous hips, and Volendam is no exception to this fashion rule. The invariable black "best waist" of the older women is usually brightened by a sparse yoke of lighter color and material, and the dark apron or over-kirt is topped by six inches or none of gay plum, on light colored band, worn over an under skirt of dull blue striped or black material and uncountable petticoats. About the throat a collar formed of many rows of heavy, dark red coral beads is fastened by huge silver clamps, and the number of rows, the size and quality or the heads are matters of feminine pride. Long hair is not the glory of woman in Holland save, perhaps, at Marken. It is usually hidden, and at Volendam is not quite close and entirely covered by a tight-fitting thick black silk cap, concealed beneath the snowy white lace. The younger girls, from the tiniest toddler to the young meisje, old enough to wear, wear dresses and the caps the exact counterpart of their grave mothers, not less full of skirt or narrow of chest, but much gayer in color. A group of tiny maidens in a stiff breece on the dike resembles nothing more than a swarm of butterflies—From "Volendam, the Artists' Village," by Florence Craig Albrecht, in the March Scrummer. PHYSICAL EFFECT OF CHILD LABOR The increasing interest in child labor reform is strongly reflected in the March Woman's Home Companion, which contains a department of child labor information officially furnished by the National Child Labor Committee. The important question of physical injury caused to boys and girls by child labor is treated in part as follows: "Laymen usually underestimate the physiological importance of the play hours of children between the ages of ten and sixteen years. Work during this period of life in factory and workshop has the effect of causing excessive fatigue in certain groups of muscles. This fatigue results in muscular degeneration and the assumption of certain faulty attitudes which are at first habitual, but later assume the place of the normal, leaving the child more or less permanently deformed, and to some extent incapacitated. "These deformities are to be regarded on the one hand, however, not simply as disfiguring, but as interfering with wage-earning capacity later on, or as menace to health and the normal tenure of life on the other hand. "The work of boys is for the most part done in the standing position. This work usually constitutes an apprenticeship for work to be done in the same position as journeymen adults. A very frequent result of such premature and excessive tool in boys is the breaking down of the feet, which results in what is popularly known as 'flat foot.' Under these circumstances it is seen quite frequently in its severest forms, and thus often results in permanently forbidding the continuance of the trade learned as a boy. "The girl, on the other hand, does her work in the factory in a sitting position, as a rule. The effect now is frequently the development of what is known as rotary lateral curvature of the spine. This results in disabling the expansive power of the chest, crowds the heart and lungs abnormally, and even affects the capacity and shape of the pelvis. For this reason it is well known that severe cases of lateral curvature result in bringing the tenure of life far below the average by its effect upon the heart and lungs. The deformity of the pelvis has long been known as being productive of serious harm in the maternal function. "While these deformities do not occur in the greater number of toiling children, they are known to be particularly frequent among them. And the harmful effects of these deformities are greatly intensified by unfortunate home environment and improper nourishment." ROOTS AS FEED. In arranging the plats and holds for crops this summer do not forget to plant an ure or two of roots for the dairy cow. Such roots as the so called "row beets," mangles, turnips and even potatoes make an acceptable change from the more concentrated roots during the winter. Most of these roots need not be planted till after the corn is in. Of course, none of the roots are rich in food elements, since they are composed largely of water, but that is where their value lies. They serve as a balance to False Teeth Stop Bullet. A news tibgram of March 4 from Wilkinson, Pa., says "The doctors to day probed for the bullets which struck Mrs. David Richards of Plymouth when she was shot, it is alleged, by her husband last night after returning from church. --- "She will recover, but she owes her life to her false teeth. One of the bullets struck her teeth, which, shattering them, presented the infliction of a fatal wound." Valuable Whiskera. Whiskers, though not a marketable commodity, have reached a quotation of A101 in Wellton, Omah, the highest value known ever to have been placed on them. The figure was established by an award in the amount of damages to Samuel Bentley, to years old, who possessed a baxen intubation until two years ago. He underwent explosion to treat the Southern Omaha company a possible for loss. Kent Vow to Her Death. A relative of Henry City, Mr. James Pierce born in 1905, died at his home in Desertton, Ky., last week. She lived seven miles from town, and had not been to town more than forty years. She became angry at some of the people of the city below, the civil war and vowed that she would visit the place again. She was wealthy TWO COLORED LADIES ARE VICTIM TO MOBS. This brutal on slaught of the bloody lawless mob, the conditions are contributed to the spirit of craft, as to the perpetrators, and to a gross negligence of the best whitie citizens. And there is no need of an attempt at an pology by sadling this fienish crime all upon the poor white trace. For these are non financial, non politiccl, non progressive, and is not responsible. But is the out growth the satianic spirit that characterizes the American political chaise players Non 75,000 troops kept in the hands of the Executives one great central power and Forty local bowers to protect the lives liberties of 100 people. And to allow such a long chain of brutal vengeance wrecked upon an inoffensive, brave, loyal, patient and patriotic class of citizen as Negroes have been to tha powers of this country; Constitutes one of the most subblimest problem known in human historical social etics. And a good solution to this all perplexing problem, is for the race to rise up in its might and denounce the American social ethics from the pulpit to the halls of congress, and cling to the fundamental principlea of our federal constitution, and cling to the Flag and take our cause for redress to the civilized nations of the civilized world E.

Tommy's Thoughts Were Elsewhere, but he Could Guess. "There is a sentimental Tommy in almost every school," said Michael King of Lewiston as he knelt over the counter of his cafe on Main Street and cut a lustful pumkin pie. "There was one in our school when I was a boy. He was Tommy Prazier, and he was a mighty smart little fellow, but he never had his eyes. He knew where every bird nested, where the Marmoset we grew the thistle and who the high top sweetings fell first; but he you, he couldn't remember his name. He was critical in many stories too. He knew all that was passing in the politics of the state and nation, but he was off in his history lesson. One day he came in late and couldn't keep his thoughts on his book. On his way to school he had seen a big mud turtle by the side of the track, and he had to put a big rock on him to hold him till night, and his anxiety lost the turtle should get away blinded his eyes. He hoped that somehow the teacher would pass him over. He listened to the other children reeling, with a big mud turtle crawling away before his eyes with a rock on his back, but finally the teacher's eyes fell on him. "Tommy Frazier, what battle was Lord Nelson killed in?" "Tommy was in despair, but he found a way." "Did you say Lord Nelson? he said cautiously. "Yes." "Which battle?" "Yes, certainly." "Well," said Tommy as the light of inspiration broke over him—'well, I smokes it must have been his last.'" A Loren From Kelse It was in a country school, and I was hearing my little second reader class. The lesson that day was a story about files, their curious ways and habits. Among other things the story said that files always kept their faces clean and then went on to tell how they rubbed their feet over their heads, as could often be seen by watching them. The last thing in the lesson was the question, "What lessons can boys and girls learn from the files?" I asked the children to answer the question. Only one small boy ventured an answer, and that was, "To wash our faces with our fe." Christian Register.

LAW POINT& If there is an express or implied notice to the purchaser that an agent has no authority to collect money, a payment will not bind the principal. (107 III. App., 82.) Where a contract recites the payment of $1 as its conformation, it is valid, although the sum was not actually paid, as it creates an obligation which can be enforced by the other party. (44 S. II. Rep., 885.) When a debtor offers a creditor a certain sum in satisfaction of all demands and the creditor gives a written acceptance of the same, there are accord and satisfaction, though the creditor states in accepting it that he cannot accept it in full settlement.

THE PLAINDEALER PUB,CO 112 East Seventh Street LEAVENWORTH POLITICS. The Republicans have nominated for the office of police judge, Mr. Benjamin F. Endres. At the present time he is police judge, and his record for dealing out even-handed justice to all classes, has gained for him the respect of everyone. He has distinguished himself throughout the state as a terror to wifebeaters and gun-toters, a class of people who are not only a menace to society and good government but a source of expense to the taxpayers. It can be truly said of Judge Endres that after a wifebeater or a gun-toter once appears before him, he never wants to go before him a second time. One "done" brings the offender to his senses and he is willing to reform and be a good citizen. The laboring classes and the down-trodden man have always been given a patient hearing by Judge Endres, and his kind words of advice to the petty offender have placed many a man on the true path to commence life anew. Such remarks as these are frequently heard about Judge Endres. For a young man his judgment of the law and his ability to apply a proper remedy in simply wonderful, and such a man as he ought to be retained in office, as he undoubtedly will be. Judge Endres is 32 years of age, born and raised in Leavenworth, his father, John A. Endres, being one of the highly respected citizens of that time. The family was a large one, and as a result, each boy had to get out and hustle. His brothers are all hard-working men, but Ben mapped out a different line to follow as a means of livelihood. He took the position of office boy with the Hon. Thomas P. Fenlon, the famous criminal lawyer. Judge Endres studied law with Colonei Fenlon until he was admitted to the bar, and today it is said that he is one of the most able lawyers of the Leavenworth county bar, and his knowledge of the law makes him eminently fitted for the office of police judge. Floyd E. Harper, candidate for city attorney of Leavenworth, is a self-made young man and deserves the support and encouragement of the voters. He is a graduate of the University of Chicago, is 26 years of age, and earned his education by hard work: having no one to assist him or give him a penny. He was admitted to the bar two years ago, associating himself with the great law firm of Atwood and Harper. His name has been on the tongues of the nation for the past sixty days, having brought habeas corpus proceedings in the U.S. Circuit court for Lieutenant Kirkman, of the U.S. A, now serving sentence in the military prison by court martial, two sentences given before the expiration of one. This is the first time this question was ever raised in the courts, and Judge Pollock indicated very strongly when first brought to his notice that he thought the action of the court martial illegal. He kept the matter under consideration for several days, finally deciding against the defendant Mr. Harper has appealed the case to the U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals. He is a Mason and K. P. of high standing. He is an unanimous gentleman, and should be elected to the office to which he is apt.

Mr. and Mrs William Hallion, formerly of Wichita, Kansas, mourn the loss of their son, Alonzo, who was stricken Tuesday evening. February 26th, and died Thursday, the 28th at 8.30 a.m. at the residence of his parents, 708 University street. The cause of his death was la gripe, which developed into spinal meelogit is. His illness lasted 36 hours, and in spite of all that Dr. Mitchell and his assistants could do, though they were in constant attendance on him all Wednesday night and until the hour of his death, nothing in their power could save him. Alonzo was born in Kansas City, Kansas, in 1892, and was 14 years 8 months and 10 days old at the time of his death. The funeral services were conducted at the undertaking rooms of Collins Bros, by Rev. T. L. Donohou, pastor of the A. M. E. church. His eulogy of the deceased was very impressive and his remarks concerning the floral designs that surmounted the caset were full of wisdom, truth and pathos. The Neverend said that these flowers were plucked as a design to show that there was a meaning. "As we go out into the field of the flowery kingdom, we pick different flowers of various sizes, and sometimes they consist of a flower that is just budding, while some are half and some are full blown, yet they are all cut to make a beautiful bouquet, while other flowers are left on the vine until the leaves begin to fall. This is the way that God picks from the human family to complete his heavenly bouquet. Blessed be his name." Master "Lon' Hallum was a bright young boy, full of ambition; he had a kind word to say to every body. His friends were many, and he was obedient to his parents. He leaves a mother, father, sister, two brothers, an aunt and a cousin to mourn his death. The remains will be shipped to Wichita, Kansas, in the near future, accompanied by his mother, sister and brothers, for interment. Mr. and Mrs. Hallum have relatives and friends in Topeka, who deeply sympathize with them in their bereavement LEAVENWORTH COLORED PEOPLE ISSUE A PROCLAMATION. ored people of Leavenworth feel it our duty to say something in behalf of a few of our friends who are sucking our suffrages at the spring election. One of them is the present mayor, Peter Everhardy, who has done much for the colored charitable institutions and churches. We have never gone to him when our churches were in a strain or our poor in need that he did not help. He is a hard-working, honest German and would not do anyoe a wrong if he knew it. He owns a meat market, where he is found at all times when not in the mayor's office. He is a laboring man, and therefore sympathizes with that class. Since he has been mayor he has reduced the city's indebtedness $65,000, while Anthony reduced it $25,000. He has lived in Leavenworth the past forty years, and understands his people and their wants.

This irritation produces pain in the head, and the turbulent nerve current sent to the stomach causes nausea, vomiting. This is sick headache, and is dangerous, as frequent and prolonged attacks weaken the brain, resulting in loss of memory, inflammation, epilepsy, fits, dizziness, etc. Allay this stormy, irritated aching condition by taking Dr. Miles' Anti-Pain Pills. They stop the pain by soothing, strengthening and relieving the tension upon the nerves not by paralyzing them, as do most headache remedies. Dr. Miles' Anti-Pain Pills do not contain opium, morphine, chloral, cocaine or similar drugs. "Sick headache is hereditary in my family. My father suffered a great deal, and for many years I have had spills that were so severe that I was unable to attend to my business affairs for a day or no at a time. During a vacation I took a black shirt and took Iry Milen's Anti-Pain Pills, relieved me almost immediately. Since then I take them all if I feel the spell coming on and it stings at me." JOHN J.
