Secret of Success in Dairying

As farming is considered by some an
Improbable calling, it is perhaps well
enough to exhibit occasionally few of
the many indications on record that this
impression is erroneous. 1t would not /
think, be difficult to show that very few
branches of business offer more ample
inducements, in the way of profit on the
investment, than either farming in gen.
eral or dairying in particular, Whenever
these pursuits are rightfully conducted.
1t is one of the interesting features of
the dairy that it is widely adapted to
varieties of soil and climate, and may be
pursued with advantage in nearly every
section of the country. 1t is mistake
to suppose, as many do, that facts indi-
eating success in husbandry are at all an
swered or diminished by facts of the
opposite kind. There is an important
distinction between the two cases. If
one man fails in doing, it is at the best
but negative argument for the failing
party, while the fact of success is posi-
tive'and full of meaning, and stands out
in view challenging criticism and COM
polling recognition. If, for example, it
has been proved that farmer jenkins
keeps five COWS in good order through
the year on the product of two acres,
while Simpkins on the next farm, with a
a similar soil and like breed of cattle
is only able to keep one COW on an acre,
does the latter case in any manner neu-
tralize this former or impair the value of
it? Certainly not. The comparison
simply shows that one man has devel-
oped possibility in dairying, which the
other has not been able to reach.
Large products of butter, cheese or
milk, are not merely the evidence of the
natural capacity of the COW, but rather
indicate, in nearly all cases, intelligence
and good management on the part of the
owner; and it may be further added
that even the capacity of the COW is it.
self, to certain extent, the product of
human skill.-C0r. Rural Neio Yorker.

The Higher Aim in Farming.

The higher aim of every intelligent
tiller of the soil should be the improve
ment of the productiveness of his land
until it reaches the point where maxi
mum crops are produced at the least ex-
pense. Wise husbandry regards the farm
simply as a machine for turning out
crops. The machine is the matter OF
first Importance. This is always to be
kept in good running order, and its
efficiency is to be increased by all eco
nomical methods. The man who farms
upon this system will never sacrifice
soil for great crop. His aim is to have
every crop found it. He aims in every
working of the soil to increase its depth
and to add to it more elements of fertil.
ity than he removes in the crops, and to
make the crops not only pay for them
selves but to pay for the improvement
of the acres upon which they are grown.
In carrying out this aim so as to realize
these results, u man shows his skill as a
cultivator. 1t is comparatively easy
thing for any one who has money to i'm
prove the soil SO that it shall produce
crops paying for the labor of growing
ing them and the interest on 5000 Or
$500 an acre. Stable manure enough
we'll plowed in will do this. But it is
altogether another matter to make this
improvement pay for itself. Yet it is a
possible thing to do this, and there are
farmers skillful enough to accomplish
this result, and this we hold to be the
true aim in the cultivation of the soil
The most judicious improvements-those
which finally pay the: largest profits
require several years to bring in their
full returns. 1t is matter of great inn
portance that our farming population
should not only be settled, but that they
should feel settled. and plan all their
operations upon the farm as if they ex-
pected to spend their days. upon it.

Remedy for Burns.

A usefu, remedy for scalds and burns
is an embrocation of lime-water and lin
seed oil. These simple agents combined
form a thick, cream-like substance,
which effectualIy excludes the air from
the injured parts, and allays the infam-
nation almost instantly. A case is re-
corded where child fell backward into
a bath tub of boiling water, and was
nearly fayed from her neck to her hips.
Her agonies were indescribable; but her
clothing being gently removed, and the
lime and oil preparation thickly spread
over the injured surface, she was sound
asleep in five minutes. Subsequently
the parts were carefully washed with
warm milk and water three times day
the oil dressing renewed, and the little
patient rapidly recovered. Though ali
the skin came off she did not have scar
This remedy leaves no dry coat to dry
on the sores, but softens the parts and
aids nature to repair the injury in
the readiest and mostexpeditious manner.
This mixture may lie procured in the
drug stores, but if Thus not accessible,
slake lump of quicklime in water. ard
as soon as the water is clear, mix it with
the oil and shake it WE'LL If the case is
urgent pour boiling water over the lime,
and it win become clear in Eve minutes
The preparation may be kept bottled in
the house, and it will be as good six
months old as when first made.

MISSOURI KANSAS 4 TEXAS
RAILWAY.

The completion of the great iron
bridge over the Missouri river at Boon
vile, enables this popular line to offer
still better facilities for the business be-
tween the Northeast and the great South
west.
Two daily trains will be run between
Hannibal and points in the great Neosho
valley, in direct connection with all lines.
Also, two daily trains between St. Louis
and points in Southern Kansas.
For the Texas trade, new and better
facilities are offered. The rates have
been greatly reduced, and arrangements
have been made whereby through Pull
man palace sleeping cars are run from
Chicago, Quincy, Hannibal and st.
Louis, to Galveston, without change,
passing through the finest portion of
Southwest Missouri, Southern Kansas,
and Indian Nation, and the most desira-
BILE portion of Texas.
Any one contemplating q trip to
Southern Kansas, the Indian Nation or

FRUTT.-There is no good reason why
more of our citizens cannot enjoy the
luxury of fine fruits-peaches, apples
and grapes. In this country trees should
be set ont very thick, sufficient to shade
the ground at maturity. They thrive
much better and produce larger fruit.
There is room enough on an ordinary
town lot to raise fruit enough to supply
two or three families. Set out your
trees and vines this fall in every nook
and corner, and in three years you will
deserve the compliments of the press for
your energy in raising choice fruit. Be-
sides. grapes and peaches are conducive
to health, and are much cheaper than
drugs.

About i,ilioaSness,

A clergyman comes to me a dozen
times year about this biliousness. Bill
iousness Is common malady. They
have no dyspepsia in their lives; they
are only bilious.
Now this word biliousness is only a
sort of respectable cover for piggishness.
People are not bilious who eat what
they should.
Reader, are you bilious? (rather a
hard question after the above hard
word.) Let me prescribe for you. II
you follow my prescription and don't
get we'll, write me, and in the next edi.
ton will announce my error.
First, on getting up and going to bed
drink plenty of cold water.
Eat for breakfast until the bilious
attack passes, a little stale bread, say one
slice, and piece as large as yonr hand
of boiled lean beef or mutton. If the
weather is warm, take instead a little
cracked wheat or oatmeal porridge.
For dinner take aboat the same thing
Go without your supper.
Exercise freely in the open air, pro.
ducing perspiration, once or twice a day
In few days your biliousness is all
gone. This result will come, even
though the biliousness is one of the
spring sort, and one with which you
have, from year to year, been much
afflicted.
Herb drinks. bitter drinks, larger beer
ale, whisky and dozen other medicines
are simply barbarous.-Dio Le,ris.

CHEAP VINEGAR.-Take a quantity
of common Irish potatoes, wash hem
until they are Thoroughly clean, place
them in a large vessel and boil them un-
til done. Drain off carefully the water
that they were cooked in, straining it, if
necessary in order to remove every par
ticle of the potato. Then put this potato
water in a jug or key. which set near the
stove, or in some place where it will be
kept warm, and add l pound Of sugar to
about q gallons of the water, some hop
yeast, or small portion of whisky. Let
it stand three or four weeks, and you
will have excellent vinegar, at cost of
& or cents per gallon.

TASTELESS

A prominent New York physician lately COM
planned to DUNDAS DICK Il co. about their
SANDALwOOD OIL CAPSULES, stating that some

and broke each and every article of the
