WHISKY DRINKING.


The Dins, enc. IN SIS Eject On vss-
aueres .na ehesp-hersasrs.
Our venerabls friesd, David Me.
larkey, 10 close observer os current
events, aud as becomes q person of bis
philosophical turn of mind, devotes
much study to cause and effect. IA
few weeks ago he noticed that q party
Of vacqueros who INDUCED in the
ardent rode through town whooping
and yelling like Indians on the war
path. and other wise conducted them
selves in very boisterous manner.
This ,sxuberance was generally attribu-
ted to the brand of whisky which they
imbibed, but the philosophical Dave
said it was owing to the fact that the
vacqneros had to deal with wild cattle,
and that their actions were Influenced
more by their associations with Spanish
bulls than by the whisky they had
drank. Since then party of sheep
herders arrived in town, and, the
shearing season being over, celebrated
the event by getting on spree. They
drank the same brand of whisky on
which the vacqneros got bigA, yet
never exhibited, while under its infu'
snce, any of the symptoms displayed
by the ea,hemeA. Our philosopher
points with pride to this fact, showing.
as it does, that there is no such thing
rs lighting whisky" and that the
sheep hsrder, whose occupation rs
quiet and peaceful may drink to ex-
cess, without becoming turbulent,
whisky that would cause vacquero to
turn double sommersaults in his saddle
and strain his intellect to- create row.

This stallion to be located in some central

ted to stand for the service of mares belong
ing to members Of the society at a nominal
figure, sufficient in the aggregate to pay for
his years keep. The use of such a horse,
with large, roomy, well shaped mares, will
furnish the farmer with exactly what he
wants from year to year, say for aaperiod Of
ten years.. Fifty farmers in a county, at a
cost of $40 each, will raise a sum Of 81, 900,
which sum will purchase a Clydesdale,
,Percheron or Norman horse, the Que horse
being sufficient to serve fifty mares each sea-
son. The service money might be fixed, say
at S. each mare; this viii yield a fund Of
$3.50 per year, Which viii fully cover the
cost of a years keep. Thus, after the first
trifling outlay the farmer in a few years is
put in possession of a Lotto colts at an ex-
tremely low figure, that viii fill all the re-

tain esprit de corps il trades and professions;
why should the agriculturalist be without
it? Unity OF action is all that is required.

IMPROVEMENT IN FARM HORSES.

A western farmer OF limited means, when
taken to task about the lot scrubs on his
farm, replied that he knew the stock was OF
no account, but that hehad no alternative;
he could not afford to pay the enormous
prices charged for the service Of stations,
nor could he afford to buy a thoroughly
good Clydesdale or Norman horse. Tor stock
purposes. This tells the whole story. On
an average, not more than one farmer in a
hundred has the right kind Of horse stock
on his farm. Now, then, the question natu-
rally arises, how is this state of things to be
femedieds Why not adopt the cooperative
plan, something like the following: At the

ald: The quantity 0 fbutter depends upon
the condition Of the milk, and the method of
its Manufacture, including the packages and
packing. A butter COW, above all others,
should be kept quiet and cohtentcd. Pure
wateri is aprilne requisite. Many failures to
make good butter can be traced to impure
water. The COW may be a machine to turn
heritage into milk, but she is not a filter, ca
pable of purifying all the filthy waters some
are compelled TO drink..9tM Mr.. Lewis has had
better success with shallow than with deep
setting. yet considers that there is little diff
ference in the results that may be obtained
from the two methods. He has obtained
the best results from keeping the tempera-
ture of the milk from $50 to co. during
the hot weather, and at from 60o to G5 osin
cold weather. He would skim milk as soon
as it is ~perceptibly sour. Better results will
be obtained by churning each day if the
quantity Of cream is sufficient to warrant
the frequency. When the cream has to
stand three or four days, add an ounce of
salt to each quart of cream of the first skim
ming, and stir up the cream of each subse-
tquent Swimming. Cream should be brought
to the proper temperature for churning by
lmmersing the jar which contains it in warm
OF cold water, as the case may require. But
ter made for immediate use gives better sat
isfaction if it is gathered in the churnl and
LETT unWashed. Would have a churn that
would produce butter by conclusion and
not by friction. Churns which produce but.
ter by friction break the grain of the butter,
making It salyy, and destroying its keeping
qualities. Itis safe for dairymen to let such
churns alone, Notwithstanding the amount
OF time and Labor they save. The butter

Butter is frequently overworked and
oyerwashed. A sliding or grinding motion
Wnen working butter will destroy the, grain
and lnjure the value. Butter should net. be
worked with the hands. Wooden packages
should be disinfected with hot brine and
then soaked in cold brine until the woody

but he had never used one which was proof
IN ali Its parts against the action ofthe brine.
Butter should be packed perfectly solid, but
it's often injured by too much pounding.
smoothing and unnecessary mussing over.
Ice should not be put in cream to cool it. A
square box churn is the only one he ever
used that brought all the cream TO butter at
the same time. It is better to thin cream by

ANOTHER CONFEDERATION AT
ST. JOHNS.

Portland, suburb Of st. Johns, New
Brunswick, was devastated by fire on
Saturday, Goth inst. About $50 houses
we're destroyed, and 700 families COM
prisiug 1000 people were made homeless.
Many persons were driven from st. Johns
on the 10th Of June last, who. with moth
ing left, sought refuge in Portland. and
now for the second time, are left doubly
destitute just at the approach of a posi-
bly, hard winter. Considering the extent
Of the fire, very small proportion Of
furniture or shop goods was saved, and
what those now so rudely thrust into the
streets will do for shelter is more than
can at present be defined. The total
loss is estimated at s25o,00O; insurance
about $4,000. The streets of the
burned portion swarmed with living VIC
tins Of the fire, houseless and desolate,
looking in vain for what they hoped they
had saved. and trying to plan as to what
they could do in the future. Some had
lost the earnings Of lifetime, and were
almost distracted, while others had los

mittee since the last fire, but they bore
up with great fortitude, evidently becOm
ing used to the ravages Of the fire 6end

eral large hotels are doing good bust
ness here, and the San Franciscans find
this pleasant resort. A lofty mountain
rises abruptly just back of the town, and
the place reminds us of some of the
towns along the west coast of So. Amer
lea. Away up on the steep side of the
hills and mountains, some of the rich
nabobs from the city have built their
cottages and fine residences. To the
lover of nature. these sites are most
beautiful. After looking over the lower
town, we assembled several flights of
stairs dug into the hills, and was sur
prised and delighted by the expanding
view obtained from the higher elevation.
We were encouraged to 60 still higher,
and began the ascent of mountain that
rises two thousand feet. After long
and weary climb we reached the sum-
NIT, and met the chilly wind that sweeps
off the waters of the Pacific. But the
view was so grand that the cold wind was
forgotten. and we gazed in delight at the
scene unfolded to view. To the west.
ward was the illlmitable Pacific, with
its foamy waves beating against the
rocky base of the mountain to the
southwest was the Golden Gate, with
its numerous steamers and ocean vessels
passing in and out; the Seal Rocks,
eight or ten miles away, are in view and

ward is the city of San Francisco, and a
little further east is the bay stretching
away thirty miles to the southwark,

with the university in plain view. To
the northeast, the eye takes in the beau
tiful bay of San Pablo with its surround
ings. The Coast range of mountains
stretches away to the northwest, in 81

ger longer in this lofty spot, where s.
many of the lovely and majestic thing

TIE PRESIDENTS MESSAGE.

The message which the President sends
to Congress is so brief document that
it need not tire the most easily discour-
aged reader. In brief terms he asks
Congress to appropriate s32,4S6,764.9s
for the expenses of the War Department
for the fiscal year, which began July l,
1874 duty which the last remarkable
House refused TO do unless it should be
acknowledged as COmmander-in-Ch Of
the army. The sum Of $2,003, 86l.27
is asked for current expenses in the Navy
Department, particularly to pay officers
and men, the sum originally devoted to
that purpose having been diverted to
other objects by ex-Secretary Robson.
The President also recommends an ap-
preparation of S262,535 for the Depart
ment Of Justice, and an appropriation
for repairing the building of the Inter.
Tor Department.
The Importance of early action re
specting the French Exposition by Con
gress leads the President to speak Of tina
topic, and. at the same time, shows hi
interest in the enterprise. He ais,
brings to the attention of Congress tn
invitation Of the Swedish Government
to the United States to participate in tn
deliberations of the International Prise
Congress, to be held at Stockholm mex
favorable consideration of that body.
