Republicans and Tariff Revision.
[Atlanta Constitution.]
That tbe high protectionists who con
trol the republican party mean to pre
vent any revision of the tariff is evi
dent, but they are not likely to make
the political mistake of splitting the re
publican party by a contest over the
presidential nomination. They will
content themselves with retaining con
trol of the legislative branch of the
government, where they can, by meth
ods which proved so effective in the
case of the late lamented Cnban reci
procity bill, throttle all efforts at tariff
revision. They have not tbe nerve to
come out and fight President Roosevelt
in the open, but they will see that his
promises come to naught.
Health Hints.
The health department of Chicagcron
Sunday issued a lengthy bulletin giving
advice to people relative to the preven
tion of typhoid fever, which may well
be heeded generally. For the condi
tions which have made typhoid well
nigh epidemic in Chicago have prevail
ed over a large section of the country.
The bulletin begins by Btating that
the department wishes to shock the
public with the realization'of the na
ture and Bole cause of this disease. As
co tbe cause of typhoid fever, it makes
this explicit statement:
Every existing case of typhoid fever
is the result of having taken into the
stomach the poison from the intestines
of some previous case. The disease
can be contracted in no other way.
"Typhoid fever," continues the bulle
tin, "is not catching in the sense that
small pox and scarlet fev.er and other
contagious diseases are. One muBt eat
or drink tbe typhoid poison." The bul
letin then goes on to point out the com
mon methods of conveyance: First,
by drinking polluted drinking water or
milk. Tbe bulletin states that one of
the most frequent methods of pollution
comes about by washing milk cans in
contaminated water and the washing
of vegetables in water from polluted
wells or streams.
Undoubtedly the surface wells are a
tremendous menace to health. After
a wet season, such as we have had, all
sorts of 01th finds its way into surface
wells. Milkmen unwittingly use this
polluted water to wash milk cans. The
warm milk furnishes a most excellent
culture for the germB. People drink
without thought of danger and con
tract the disease. It was by this meth
od that typhoid became epidemic at the
college at Ames a year or so ago.
milk or cream raised to a temperature
of 150 or 160 degreea for from twenty
to twenty-live ruinuteB is made perfect
ly safe, and will keep several days with
out souring. In tbe third place, people
are advised to waBh all vegetables,
fruits and green stuff intended to be
eaten raw in water that baa been boiled
at least twenty minutes and then cooled.
It advises againBt the use of water cool
ed by putting ice directly in tbe water.
It says "put the vessel in the ice, not
the ice in tbe vessel." And lastly, it
advises extra precautions against Hies.
Flies are said to have been tbe most
potent agency in tbe spread of typhoid
in the army camps during the late war.
Covered with tbe poison from the illtby
pools and filthy vegetables, files crawl
ing over food previously wholesome,
contaminate it, and the mischief IB
done. jg
There can be no doubt about tbe ab
solute accuracy of these facts. Experi
ments without number bave shown ex
actly how typhoid fever originates, and
everybody Bhould give heed to this
warning. Next to consumption, there
is no greater enemy to human life than
typhoid fever. It is a pestilence that
walketh in darkness. Tbe germs of it
may be concealed in water tbat seems
to be most refreshing in milk that is
palatable and aweet, in food that tempts
the appetite.—Cedar Bapldi Republi

Even with the best of facilities, cou
pled with painstaking eilorts, it is some
times very difficult to preserve milk
quality for twelve or eighteen hoars in
hot weather. Many fly to ice and de
pend upon that solely, but this does not
necessarily imply good dairying. If one
is possessed of a supply of ice, it is a
valuable adjunct in these matters, but
it should be used circumspectly. For
Instance, do not cool down hot milk
suddenly with it before that milk has
been thoroughly aerated. With pure
air surroundings and except in the most
sultry and "muggy" weather, there need
be no difficulty in keeping milk sweet
without the use of ice, Aeration means
more for high-quality milk thaa any
thing else that can be done after It
comes from the cow.

tfe&How to Select the Dairy Cow.
We do not believe that any man, no
matter what his experience may be, can
invariably Beiect flrst-class, mortgage
lifting cows by the outward appearance.
There are Bome men, however, who can
coma much nearer it than others and
we do not know of any man who can
do it more correctly than G. F. Good
rich, the veteran dairyman of Wiscon
sin. From a paper written by Mr.
Goodrich for the Patrons' Herd Book,
we take the following statement as to
how to select a good cow for tbe dairy:
When one wishes to buy cows to take
tbe place of some weeded out, or to in
crease his herd, or start a new herd, a
difficult problem presents itself. He can
not have the year's record, fur the rea
son that those who have cows to sell
have not kept a record of Individual
cows, or, if they have, they bave too
much business cense to sell off their
best cowb. It is of no use to ask tbe
seller which are his good cows, for he
will tell you that they are all good, and
besides he does not know himself, be
cause he has never made a yearly teBt.
It is of but little use to see tbe cow
milked and take a sample and teBt it.
One can learn but very little from one
milking what a cow will do for a year.
Therefore, there remains but one
thing to do, and tbat is for the buyer to
use his own judgment, being governed
entirely by the form ot tbe cow. There
is a dairy type—a form which indicates
dairy ability, wbicb tbe clOBe student of
the dairy cow is able to recognize.
There are cows of dairy type and of
good dairy performance in nearly all
breeds, but they are found more nearly
universal among the recognized dairy
breeds, such bb Guernseys, Jerseye and
Holsteins, than among other breeds.
There is occasionally one of dairy type,
and a Bplendid performer found among
Bome
of the beef breedB, but they are
exceptions to the general rule, and
though good performers themselves,
would not be very likely to transmit
first-claBs dairy qualities to their off
spring. So it is best to hunt among the
dairy breeds, or grades of dairy breeds
—those which bave been bred and used
through many generations solely for
dairy purposes—when wishing to select
dairy
"cows.
The health bulletin also telle how ty
phoid may be avoided. It advises peo
ple to drink no water not known posi
tively to be pure or sterilized by boiling
or distilling to pasteurize all milk aud
cream used for drinking purposes, es- city for handling and digesting the large
pecially by the young. It states that amount of food that her strong jaws are

The mouth of tbe dairy cow should
be large and the jaw strong and muscu
lar, which indicates that she is a good
feeder. She should have great depth of
body showing tbat she has large capa
able to eat. She should bave a broad
chest and large girth around the heart
and plenty of lung capacity. She should
have a broad, strong loin with bips
quite wide apart, with the back bone
rising quite high between them. This
indicates large room for the organs of
maternity.
The thighs
Bhould
be thin and in­
curved on the back side with great
room between them, and" tbe flank
arched up high just in front of them.
All this to give room for the large fine
udder which she must have to be a
great producer. The udder Bhould ex
tend well forward and well back, mak
ing a long connection with the body,
and having four fairly good sized teate
set on well apart. Large, full milk
veins that carry the blood from the ud
der back to the heart through large
"milk wells" or openings through the
large walls of the chest are indications
of a large llow of milk,
Some other points whioh good cows
usually have, but not always, might be
mentioned. These are the thin slim
neck the clean, well out up throat the
thin withers and the long tall.
A great many men when judging of
a cow's dairy ability are guided almost
entirely by the udder. If that is large
and Que they think'she muet be a good
cow, no matter what her form other
wise is. Of course, a good udder UBual
ly goes with a good dairy form, but not
always, and when it does not, the cow
is either a partial or total failure as a
dairy cow.
A cow may have a large udder and
give a good quality of milk for a short
time, but if Bhe has not a good dairy
form, she has not the machinery to
keep on Oiling her udder long enough to
make her a prolitabie cow. More men
have been deceived by a large udder
than by anything else about a cow, be
cause that was almost tbe only feature
they looked at.
The buyer should never fail to exam
ine carefully the udder of every cow he
thinks of selecting, to see that it is
sound, has no paralyzed quarters and
gives milk easily and freely from all
four of her teats.

The Secret of Yonth.
A scientific contemporary has been
discussing why women as tliey ad
vance In years grow plainer than men
and why marriage so frequently de
stroys their good looks, says the Lady's
Pictorial. With this very question
Max O'liell also deals in his latest
book, and it encourages the hope that
a woman may retain her youthful
appearance longer and thus gain an
other point giving her further equal
ity with man to liiul that both the
scientific and the philosophic writers
agree on the point that careful atten
tion to the personal appearance and
the temper may do much to preserve
youth and beauty. Max O'Hell blunt
ly says that discreet and judicious co
quetry will keep a woman absolutely
beautiful and youug till fifty. After
that we must mercifully draw the
veil. Our scientific mentor soberly
advises plenty of open air exercise,
careful attention to the toilet and diet
aud the cultivation of amiability. A
sense of humor largely helps the re
tention of youth and might have saved
Faust a lot of trouble had he possessed
It. But, unhappily, amiability and a
sense of humor are alike dlfllcult to
cultivate indeed, they are wholly be
yond the reach of a large majority.
On tho whole, therefore, it is safer to
rely on attention to personal appear
ance. Nowadays it is made so easy for
women to make themselves attractlW
that there Is no excuse for looking old?
or than, if as old as. one's age. The
astute French philosopher counsels wo
man to be careful about her hair. Our
grave scientific contemporary suggests
that a hidy'3 toilet should uever be
hurried. And to this sage advice may
be added a third counsel, which Is to
cultivate distinct style of dress.
The Irtenl Drawing Ilooiu.
An ideal drawing room is coming,
having no-rugs, no upholstered furni
ture, no portieres, no window shades,
no sharp corners, no hanging pictures
and even no elaborate carvings on fur
niture, waluscoting or mantel. Ma
hogany will be tho one material for
finish and furniture. Wide windows

and to relievo the semibarrenness of
such a room there will be bunks of
plants aud flowers, and especially will
plants of the ludia rubber and eucalyp
tus families be kept for their bacteria
destroying qualities.
In the bedroom the same simplicity
as to flooring and walls should be
maintained, and, as to beds, thero
should be no pillows. The mattress
should be on plain springs, stretched
eighteen inches above the floor, and it
should slope three or four inches from
the head to the foot. This allows the

Parents make a groat mistake wheu

Do not tell him so do not bid him

when lie does what he knows to be
