A\D PTIY9 IOIOUH'AL KKATI HES (fK THE UAIRV COW. i-i# Intelligent and progressive farmers anl lairymen are becoming more fa miliar with the fact that milk aud but ter producing qualities of cows are ac companied by a general vigor, con formation, temperament, fineness, bear ing and other features that are quite characteristic, says a bulletin of the Ston-s experiment station. The accom panying tigurfr shows the outline aud general features of a profitable cow of the dairy type. The general constitutional vigor of the cow is of primary importance, and of nearly as great importance are effi cient digestive organs, large and well formed milk organs, strong heart and good blood circulation, large, strong lun^s aud a highly developed nerve system. For convenience in the pres ent discussion these are called the es sential organs and are considered hero with some remarks concerning their uses or functions. Milk is a manufactured article pro duced by the cow from the food which she consumes. The capacity of a cow for producing milk depends largely upon her capacity for digesting food and assimilating it into her tissues. For the accommodation of a large and efficient digestive apparatus a good dairy cow should have a long, deep and wide barrel, with well sprung ribs. This form of middle piece gives ample room for the storage of food and for an apparatus capable of disposing of large quantities of the coarse, bulky fodder which the cow consumes. The milk organs are quite intimately concerned in the productive capacity of the cow, as it is in these that the milk and buffer fat are finally elaborated from the food. It is not altogether clearly understood how the milk is made In the gland, but it seems quite probable that it is produced by the ep ithelial cells witliin the udder. So far as is known, the quantity of milk that can be produced depends in a large part upon the number and activity of DAIRY TYPK, these cells. The number of such cells Is limited by the size ol' the udder and the amount of fatty tissue it contains. The dairy cow should therefore have a large udder capacity—the larger the better but the size of the udder should not be due to any large amount of fat or flesh. There should be an elasticity of the tissue, with a shrinkage of the udder when empty. The udder should have considerable surface, extending far forward and well up behind. It should be well balancid and symmet rical in shape, indicating good devel opment in all quarters, for the more perfectly developed the organ Is the larger the amount of milk it will be likely to yield. It «hould be spread considerably from Hide to side also, while the teats should be even and squarely placed. To- make room for such a capacious, well developed udder the hind legs of the cow should be wide apart, the thighs should be thin and the flanks high arched. The digestive tract prepares the food for assimilation into the tissues, the udder elaliorates the milk, the heart forces the blood with its load of food and oxygen through the body, the lungs supply oxygen to the blood and remove from it the products of the ox idation which thkes place in the body, but the brain and nerve system are concerned in all these operations. Through the influence of this system the activities of ail the organs are aroused, guided, controlled and har monized. In the cow the heart and lungs are ever active. The digestion, absorption and assimilation of food, and perhaps the mysterious elaboration of milk, are constantly going on. Collier estimates that a cow giving an average quantity of milk produces, on an average, 138, 210,000 fat globules per second during each '21 DAKOTV.

Washington, August 22nd.—More than fifty years ago "M anifest Destiny'' was the watchward of American pro gress. Expansion was in the air, and in fact was the very breath of the American people. From that day to this "expansion" has animated our most progressive statesmen, and we might as well try to stop the How of Niagara as to try to stop the growth, grandeur and mighty forces of America. In American veins flows the masterful blood of history -English, Scotch, Irish, German, French and Scandi navian, nation builders all—rugged as the heather-covered granite hills of the highlands, gentle as the green vales of Killaruey, dominant on land as the English on sea and with a love for native land as strong, deep and lasting as the German affection for the Fatherland. There has not been an hour from the moment the pilgrims landed at Plymouth to the bright May day when Dewey humbled the flag of Spain in Manila bay when Americans have not been the missionaries of liberty. The Revolutionary war was for liberty and expansion on the land: the war of INI2 was for liberty and ex pansion on the sea: the Mexican war was for liberty and expansion of the west and south: the Rebellion was for liberty and union everywhere, and the country is still in the morning of its history. The imperialism of the American idea gave the French people power to throw off the old regime and enter in to the dominion of individual sov ereignty. tt has mademorethan a score of Latin American Republics strung along the Andean mountain chain, every one of them children of America though and of American example, and still sheltered tinder the strong arm of American protection. America never consulted with cowardice, or took council with the fearful. She rejoices as a strong man to run a race, and cares not how hard the task may be providing it be just. The Republican policy which so long has guided the destiny of repub lican America has been just and gen erous, opening the door of oppor tunity to all, opening markets that looms may spin, furnaces blaze, chimneys smoke, trains fly and ships sail, making work, maintaining wag es and paying honest toil and American skill the highest wages in the best money in the world. The republican party stands for im perialism of opportunity, the domin ion of achievement, the kingdom of of manly labor, royal remuneration for loyal service. If this be imperial ism let the enemies of the republic make the most of it. The party which freed the black man, gave work to the white man and deals justly with the brown man does not hesitate to go before the sovereign voters of the country and ask for endorsement. President McKinley has been true to the traditions and instincts of the American people. He has continued the policy which Jefferson inaugrated, which Monroe continued, which Se ward advanced, which Grant pro moted, which Harrison championed and which the growth'of the republic demanded. A policy which Cleveland could not'ehantre, for Hawaii is ours, Porto I4ico is ours, the gate of Asia is ours to the glory of America and for the good of the natives who find shelter and protection under the spot less folds of our ,llag. This is the record and loyal Americans glory in it. The republican party is not apos tate to the spirit of the race, nor will it check the resistless march of liberty and free in&titutions. Are the Americans of to-dav the de generate sons of noble sires? (.Uir fathers carried the flag from the Alle ghanies to the Pacific, from Ken tucky to the Gulf, from the Golden Gates to the frozen north, and with every change the prophets of evil pre dicted the fall of the republic. But the republic grew in size, in strength and virtue. And there is something more beyond. There is more freedom to give, more school houses to build, more truth to preach, more tasks to dare, and all the pessimism represent by Tammany Hall, the solid south, the anarchy of Chicago and the sophistry of the Platte cannot limit our growth, paralyze our commerce, stop our developement or make us re creant to our manifest destiny. The Kansas City platform by de nouncing expansion under the name of imperialism endorsed the policy of Cleveland, who furled the flag at Honolulu. It returned to the tradi tions 01 the sixties when the country was urged to let the south go, to let the imperial republic be divided, to let slavery continue, to create a lie© of custom hpuses and block houses all along the Mason and Dixon line, which would have called for a stand ing army in the north and another ia the south, and would have turned back the clock of progress and tolled the death knell for human liberty (•very where. But no, union and lib erty triumphed. The severed country united. It commenced to grow. Rail* w a y s w e e u s e o e s u n s e Alaska became our*. Hawii begged for adoption and we took her in Guam joined the procession the Philippines, just awoke to the fact that one American promise is worth more than sixteen Spanish bonds, sees the star of hope rising and looks for peace, prosperity and regeneration under the benign influence of American schools, American commerce, Ameri can laws and American justice. If this be imperialism let the democrats make the most of it. It will be recalled that Mr. Bryan wired hfe congratulations to the late Mr. Gobel upon his "'election" to the Kentucky governorship. He should hasten to felicitate the North Carolina red shirts upon the disfranchisement of the negro voters of that state. A Fms'oon Pt'lwttu. The celebrated .Mantel tine prison fur nishes an important scene In Sienkle wicz's utory. "Quo Vadis." It is locat ed on t'v slope of the Cnpltoline, in Rome, and, according to tradition, it was begun by Anecs Martins and later enlarged by Sen ilis Tullius. Jugurtba !s said to have been starved to death here, the accomplices of Catiline stran gled by command of Cicero and Seja nus, the minister and favorite of Tibe rius, executed. Church tradition has consecrated this prison as the place where St. lVter and St. Paul were con fined by order of Nero. Historian Hil lard says of it: "The Mamertine prison Is a hideous vault divided into an upper and lower portion scooped out of the solid rock .and lined with massive blocks in the Etruscan style of architecture. A more heartbreaking place of confinement if Is not easy to imagine. According to the traditions of the church, St. IVte# was imprisoned here by order of Nero, and the pillar to which he was bound and a fountain which sprang up mirac ulously to furnish the water of baptism to his jailers, whom he converted, are shown to the visitor. There is no rea son to doubt that .Jugurtha was starv ed to death in these pitiless vaults. I Here, too, the companions of Catiline were strangled. It is a curious fact that the chances of literature and his tory should have carved two such names as those of Sallust and Cicero on these Cyclopean walls." Tfot Piety, bat Perft, The following bit of nonconformist humor is taken from "The Farring dons," nn English romance. The speak ers are Mrs. Iiateson nnd Mrs. Han key, worthy wives, but not altogether above feeling a certain pleasure in showing up the ways of husbands: "They've no sense, men haven't," said Mrs. Ilankey "that's what's the! matter with them." "You never spoke a truer word, Mrs. I Hankey," replied Mrs. Iiateson. "The I very best of them don't properly know I the difference between their souls and their stomachs, and they fancy they are a-wrestling with their doubts when really it is their dinners that are a-wrestling with them. "Now, take ISateson hissolf," contin tied Mrs. Iiateson. "A kinder husband or better Methodist never drew breath. yet so sure as he touches a bit of por! he begins to worry hisself about th doctrine of election till there's no liv lng with him. Ami then he'll sit in the front parlor and engage in prayer for i hours nt a time till I says to him: 'Iiateson,' says I, 'I'd be ashamed to go troubling the Lord with a prayer when a pinch of carbonate of soda would set things straight again!'"
