To properly finish'a dirt road made with the use of the grader, it should be thoroughly rolled and hardened. It .is not sufficient that it be crowned, but it should be made hard and smooth. The same thing is true of gravel roads. This can be best accomplished with the use of rollers. Horse rollers weigh- ing from five to eight tons a e most frequently used for the purpose. All loose stones should be removed from the road surface before rolling, as well as sods, turf, leaves, sticks or any other matter that will tend to soften the road bed. A road that is thoroughly and repeatedly rolled is well fitted to stand the wear of travel, and can be made into a perfect watershed. A Waste. Filodnct No'Longer. Skim-milk has heretofore been almost a Waste product in many creameries. It ‘has not been utilized to the advantage of either the creameryman or patron. Its value for feeding purposes has been almost entirely ,destroyed, and the farmer who ‘ofiered it to his calves or pigs felt almost ashamed of himself to think he would provide such unwhole- some, miserable rations for their use. But with better enlightenment on this subject and facilities for doing it in bet- ter‘shape, they are beginning to utilize skim-milk in such a way that many of the farmers now consider it worth from 15 to 20 cents per hundred for feeding purposes alone.—Elgin Dairy Report.

I Have ' __...-._......,_.. ,,...,.._,W_.. n...— GENERAL o'ris- ARM-Y, :; Ens Informed the War Departmen‘ 'l‘hht 30,000 Lien Will Do. WASHINGTON, 'May 31.—The Post today says: I “General Otis has informed the war' department that he will be satisfied if the army under his command is kept at a maximum‘of 30,000. The president will give him this number. “The situation in the Philippines was" the subject of an extended conference yesterday between the president and Ad- jutant General Corbin. In view of the more or less alarming reports which have ' been sent to the United States from Ma- nila it is important to know that the president does not share in‘the anxiety which these dispatches have naturally created. General Otis has kept in close touch with the authorities here, and if he was in the tight position which the press reports seem to indicate it is felt that he would not hesitate about mak- ing his dilemma known. On the con- trary, the advices received from him show that he is not in need of a largely increased army. He has cabled that. the press reports of thenctivity of the in- surgents south of Manila have been greatly exaggerattd. and he thinks that 30,000 men will be ample to meet all re- quiremcnts. “The present strength of the army in the Philippines, including volunteers, whoare still in the service, is 36,000. \thn the'volunteers return, some 24,- 000 regulars will remain, or 6,000 less than the number estimated as necessary by General Otis. The re-enforcements. new on route to Manila or under orders to depart will bring the total regulars up to the t-required figure, but as there will be considerable loss/through sick- ness it is proposed to decrease the com- panies now stationed in garrisons in this country to their minimum and increase the companies in the Philippines to their maximum. Klee-“Wheeler FOr Go": ernor. a.» BIRMINGHAM, Ala, May 31.——Tho‘ News says: “\Vith almost one accord the newspapers in General Joe IVheeler’s congressional district have unfied in a call for him to enter the race for gov- ernor and heal the disruption that now exists in the Democratic party in Ala- bama. The call has been taken up by other papers in central and southern Al- abama, and it is said that Wheeler might be induced to enter the field if he is not sent to the Philippines. If he ran he would be elected beyond a doubt. Even the I’opulists and Republicans would scarcely oppose him. W’heeler’s election as governor would. it is believed, insure him an eventual seat .in the .United States senate.” The News expresses the opinion that General W'heeler will not accept the governorship.

CORNELL A WINNER. Leads the University of Pennsylvania Crew by a Half Length. ITI-IACA, N. Y., May 31.—The Cor- nell-University of Pennsylvania boat race, which was postponed from the scheduled time 01:15:30 o’clock yesterday the lake. which had been exceptionally rough all day, having finally quieted down. Cornell reached the start at 7:15, Pennsylvania joining at 7:30. Consider- able time was spent in arranging the shells in position. Pennsylvania chose the inside course. Coach Courtney as- sisted with the work and, after the crews had started, went back to the Cornell launch, following the crews to the finish. At the word the Pennsylvanians had a slight advantage in catching the water first and gained nearly a third of a length after a dozen sharp strokes. Cor- nell did not attempt to spurt, but rowed a 32 stroke. Pennsylvania had started with 34 and from time to time increased it to 30. Cornell began to gain at. quarter mile, and at the'mile had more than made up the loss at the beginning. Pennsylvania had lost about half a length at the mile and a quarter and began to put effort into their work. Cornell’s rowing did not vary. and although Penn- sylvania pushed the nose of her shell nearly even with the Ithacans at the mile and a half Cornell did not let out until about 300 yards of the finish. The men in the Cornell boat then rowed a 33 stroke. while Pennsylvania’s went up to 37. The Ithacans unincd slightly. and at the end won by fully half a length in 11 minutes 261/; seconds. Pennsylvania’s time was 11:28. Both crews finished strong and pulled to the hoathouse in good form. Government Storehbnse Bni-ned.
