H. CHAPEL A SON. The Greek nation numbers 16,000, but of these no less than 6,000 are negroes. They represent!the most 'pro greeilve part of the tribe and are said practically to control Its policy. These former alaves are so Influential that a •ban of negro descent was chosen as one of the head chiefs of .the tribe. Probably the smallest monarch in the world reigns over the Hindoo vassal state of Bhopaul, and governs a people more than 1,000,000 souls. This dwarf Is a woman, Pjihan Begum by name, and although she Is about 50 years old she does not appear larger than a child of 10. The horny-handed citizen who voted for the Full Dinner Pail last November Is Invited to look at the vote in the house on the bill designed to prevent federal iDjunetiont '&ing used as clubs to defeat labor strikes. The bill was beaten by a vote of 66 to 145. This may set the horny-handed to thinking, pro vided his admiration for the Full Din ner Pall has not blinded him to all otht-r considerations. The men who leave lows for farm,, ••7* the Winteraet New,, are miseiog it. Than is no state in the union where one can be ao lure of luccesa In raising a errp as in Iowa. Neither is there any place on the face of the flobe where land, will enhance In value as in the eorn belt. They are to be most densely popnlatel and the most productive land* In theJJnited States. The young man who can acquire a good bine grass farm and the education and experlenoe necisary to successfully conduct It trom this time on will doubtless enjoy a lar ger income and independence of life than will fall to many men in the world. To own a blue grass farm will mean In the future %o have a steady and certain Income. Mark Hanna not going to stand much mora fooiliSg in Nebraska. Mark will take just so much from his loyal and loving subjects and then be will call a halt. If the legislature of that state doe. not break the deadlock itself Mark will march out there with his sledghammer and hit it a few blows be tween the solar plexus and the I'latte river. If the people of Nebraska con tinue to demonstrate they are incap able of self government-Mark will send his old shoe out there to govern them, and he will not send the standing afmy along either. Mark needs two more ^nators In his business, and as they are for personal use he wants to be cer tain that the brand Is right.' Nebraska, now in the flush of good times, evident ly forgets how Mark sent them rain last summer when the drought was moving into the state for a three weeks stay. The people of Nebraska forget how be personally put his shoulder under tho the price of corn and held it up until they had marketed the crop. They forget other favors, but Mark Is going there to remind them. Nebraska will not need to Import Mrs. Nation to break its deadlock when Mark goes after It.—Chicago Record. Huxley And Immortality.' The literary world has been unusu ally interested in "The Life and Letters of Huxley," recently published by his son. A significant discovery is made concerning his epitaph, chosen during during hiB life time by Mr. Huxley, this epitaph haying been written by his wife. It reads as follows: And if there be no meeting past the grave blMk' W. A. ABBOTT. rtRTTOS, Wall paper, BtaUon.ry, Palnta, Olla 17 ete. Olty hall blook. If all is dsrkness, Bilence, yet 'tis rest. Be not afraid, ye waiting hearts that weep, For God still "glvetb his beloved sleep." And if an endlesB sleep he wills—so best. If this were ail one might conclude that Mr. Huxley was agreed with the sentiment once written over the por tals of the cemeteries in France— '•Death is an eternal sleep." But Its Ijgnl&cance is heightened by a letter, In the book referred to, from Mr. Hux ley to John- Morley. an extract from which reads as follows: It Is a curious thing that I And my dislike to the thought of extinction in creasing as aa I get older and nearer the gosj.

Oare of Dairy Oowa. Whenever a cow is keptformilk there are a few things that shoftid never be lost sight of. To the man with a few cows and little money they are more important than to the rich man with many cows and more money. It should always be the aim of trie/owner to se cure the largest poeslb' amount of butter fat (because this Is the only true measure of the value of,milk)wlth the minimum amount or expense, In cluding time, food and capital Invested. The cows should be comfortable, healthy end vigorous, able to consume, properly digest and assimilate food for her support and a large surplus for milk. The profit In dairying is always measured by this surplus. Moderate exercise, under favorable conditions, will contribute to the desired reault but every effort of the cow beyond that will detract from the profit. All the energy need In warming up ice-cold wa ter, every moment she shivers In the cold wind, lessens the surplus of the milk pail Gold, damp, dark or dirty stableB are not comfortable therefore, In such quarters a cow will not do her beet. In th^ exercise of my duties as a dairy inspector I have visited every nlaas of stable, from the best to the worst' Uiose that were dry, clean, light and well ven tilated, down to those that were dark, damp and filthy beyond description. Hundreds of times I have been met with the statement: "I would like to keep my cows clean, dry and comfort able, but I cannot afford it." In these inspections we note the kind and amount of feed Used, the cost, etc. .and also the amount of milk produced. This gives us a reliable basis from which to determine the kind of care and feed and the character of stables that bring to the owner the largest re turns for the time, labor and capital and brains invested. Bight here it might not be amiss to mention that it has often seemed to me that a great deal of time, and much hard, disagree able labor and the interest on consider able capital were wasted.—Midland Farmer. Dairy Bules. 1. Cowb must' have comfort or they cannot do well. Ulve them a good bed and a comfortable stall with as much liberty as is consistent with security, cleanliness and convenience. Have the arrangement of the stalls, gutters and fastenings such that the cows can be kept clean. Keep the stable clean. 3. Have the stable ventilated in such a way as to provide pure air for the cowa without making it too cold. 4. Always be kind to cows, then they will be glad to see you when you come around. Speak gently to them and never In angry toneB. Remember Ward O. White's famous saying: "Always apeak to a cow aa you would to a lady." 5. Give cows a chance to exercise in the open air when weather is comfort able. 6. Milk regularly, at the same time each day, dividing the day equally be tween mllkings cows in the same order and by the same milkers, if possible. Milk quickly but gently. Get all the milk each, time, but do not keep on stripping after you have got it. 7. Feed cows all they will eat of the proper kind of food. The concentrates should be feed somewhat In proportion to the amount of milk each cow can be made to give. But in no caBe should the concentrates constitute more than half, in weight, of the dry matter ot the dairy ration—a Bafer rule Is to say one third. Give only whatjthey will eat up or once. Have none left over in the mangers or feed boxes for them to breathe on and get foul. 8. Feed a variety of foo^ls. They will eat more and digest more because of it Feed nothing but sweet, wholesome food. 9. Feed at the Bame time each day, then cows will not be worrying about .their feed. .10. Feed as nearly as practical a bat anced ration. But all cows should not be fed alike those inclined to lay on flesh should be feed less of the carbo hydrates, such as corn, and those in clined to turn all their feed into milk should be fed more of such feed. 11. In summer cows should have good pasture, other green' food or silage. In winter a part of the daily ration should be silage or roots to enable them to do theirbeBt. 12. Feed both coarse fodder and con centrated feed'both morning and eve nlng. Feed a small or coarse fodder at noon if cows have been accustomed to. MANCHESTER, IOWA, WENDESDAY, FEBURARY 27, IU01 VOL. XXVII-NO. 9. it. If cows have not been accustomed to It, they may, perhaps, do as well without the noon feed as by giving more at the other feeds. 13 Cows should be watered at least twice a day wbei^ on dry feed, and the water should be pure and wholesome and at a temperature that best Buits them, which is at least 20 or 30 degrees warmer than iee water. 14. Cows should have at all times all the salt their appetites crave, which is from one to two ounoes each daily. If the above rules are followed, any oow that Is worth keepibg will pay for her care and feed, Any cow that does not ao pay should be disposed of. —15. I*. Goodrich, in Hoard's Dairyman.
