We are witnessing in New England an
exodus from the country TO the city. and
various theories have heen presented in ex-
planation; we only know that many Young
men are leaving their homes on account of
dilapidated walls and decaying roofs, as well
as exhausted lands, and that the dread of ex-
pens.ve repairing or rebuilding, drives them
from the old homestead.
Well for this country Wilt be, when oursup
ply oftimber for building material is exhaust
ed;not till then shall we learn the lesson Of
the old world, and not only build upon a.rock.
but build of brick and stone, and those arti-
heial compounds which perhaps are restoring
the lost art that reared tie Pyramids of
Egypt. We do not advocate tn. indiscrimi-
nate destruction of all the trees but with
the disappearance of timber forests, we shall
see the plow asserting its right to all arabic
land-the hedge and ditch defining division
lines-wandering animals restrained within
the walls of sheds and barns or only at large
il lands unsusceptible of eultivation-the
the land owner dweller at home under his
ancestral roof which shall go down TO mis-
children's children-then under the new econ
omies of time and labor and money, can he
plant trees for shade and fruit and shelter and
onament, and bid the forest spring up in all
waste places, to supply the simpler meellan-
ical industries of man.

Cooling Milk.

In relation to the cooling of milk, the fol-
lowing are the views given before the Ameri-
can Dairymen's Convention, by Mr.. Arnold,
who said that the circumstances in cooling
milk for butter and cheese are different. The
odor in milk is condensable in liquid form.
BY driving off the vapor with heat, it can be
condensed again into volatile oil, with a
slight color. At co. it becomes solid. Ii We
take milk from the COW and cool 1t to $50, we
leave the oil in the milk to do its mischief.
1t is necessary, therefore, to allow the milk to.
be above sixty for some time to allow the odor
to escape.
He had known cases where milk was cooled
in twelve hours time, so that it would keep
sixty hours. Again, cream will rise more
rapidly when the milk is kept warm. Ifyou
cool the milk down 10 $50 there are some por-
tions of the cream that do not rise. Another
advantage is that fats expand more by heat
than does water. Hence they will be kept
down when cool by the friction of the thick
portions of the milk. If a system could be
invented to raise the temperature Of the
milk to 1909 and then cool, the odor would
nearly all escape and the cream nearly all
rise.
The following experiment that he made to
| test this point was given: Three pans OF
milk were used. One was placed upon the
snow, the other kept in the milkroom, and
the third heated. The last pan showed a
complete rise of the cream and escape of the
| animal odor The other two showed the
presence of animal odor and a retarding in
the rise of the cream. The pan placed upon
the snow showed very little cream and a
| strong animal odor. Other odors in the milk
| it was claimed may be driven of by heating.

whn, shall We Have for Dessert

Let me suggest 20 your readers few ways
of varying the dessert at dinner-changes
from the inevitable pie. They may not be
new, vet / never see them at any table be-
sides our own. ls
Make dough as for biscuit, roll thin and
spread with currents, cherries, or any kild
OF berries. Roll it up like jelly cake and
steam it till done. To be eaten with sweet
ened cream.
Another is To one pint of sour milk add
one teaspoonful of soda, -four to make bat
ter. and handful of dried cherries or cur
rents. Pour into basin and steam until
done. To be eaten with sweetened cream.
Instead Of sweetened cream for the above
pudding, sauce made of half pint of wine,
half cup of sugar, one tablespoonful OF
butter boiled and thickened with little flcue
might be used. Cider is a very good subst'
tute for the wine. Or instead OF the sauce
a syrup of-sugar and water boiled Is sood
with either of the puddings.
| The following l know TO DC new 70 your

field s. Goss, was traced step by step
from almost the very hour his shop was
burned near Baltimore, to various sec.
tions of the country; how he was vis-
tied by WIN. +. Uddersook and his
brother, a. e. Goss, at different places,
until he at last made his appearance in
company with Udder,ook, at Jenner-
vile. Although the evidence against
the prisoner was mainly circumstantial, =,
yet it Is questionable whether chain
of evidence could be produced that
would point more directly aud concur
sive!y to his guilt.
This is certainly the most important
criminal trial ever passed upon in this
county. Willie all concede that there
can be no question cf the guilt Of the
prisoner, an impression prevails in the
minds of all that the whole story has
not yet been told. There is no doub,
that others were implicated, but how
far the Plan was agreed upon before
UdderzoCk left Baltimore, will possibly
never be explained.
The question has frequently heen
propounded to US, will there be a con-
fession'', We have invariably answered
in the negative. "A complete confess
sion, in our judgment, would mvolve
too many persons, and hence will not
be made at all.
