Editor Morning Star:
In our quiet section there is little of in
terest transpiriDg, save the work of the
husbandsman, and he is busy preparing
for his crops.
Last year was disastrous crop-year.
The prospect in the spring and summer
was magnificent, but the wonderfully wet
fall and the early cold of November last,
cut it down to nearly one-half, and hence
money is scarce and business dull, for the
tiller of the soil "pays for ALL" and 30
when he fails things work badly.
We can say nothing yet about the COM
ing seasons prospects, except that the area
of cane planted will not be as great as we
hoped, on account of the seed being bad.
In Church matters We have little to note
except that we have q new pastor-the Rev.
Father Harnsis, from Franklin. Our peo-
pie truly regretted that Rev. G. V. D'Hem-
ecourt should leave us. However, these
changes must come to pass, as much aa
they may be regretted. PELICAN.

HISTORICAL.

The following, which will be inter
esting to the people Of Kenosha county,
is clipped from Prof. Salisbury's "His-
tory of the Wisconsin Teachers Asso-
ciation":
similar work appears to have be-
run early along the lal1eshore about
Kenosha, in which ard adjoining towns
educational meetings were frequently
held in the years from 1849 to 1852.
At these meetings the people met and
were addressed by Judge Jno. B. Jilson,
Col. M. Frank, I. W. Webster, Esq,
and such teachers as JnO. &. McMynn,
Il. c.. Graves, MI. Marks, and John 3.
Coe l cannot ascertain the date OF
the formation of the "KenOSha County
Teachers Association" but find that it
held meetings in March and April,
1853. At the meeting Of March 18th,
1858, about 30 were present, I. w.
Webster was Chairman and George M.
Dewey, Secretary. J. c. Roberts, Dr.
Adams, John B. Jilson, and J. G. Me-
Mynn were appointed committee to
make preparations for a county cele-
brati0n on the Fourth Of July. :.

HOLDING Up MILK.

'The cow hollis UP her milk is Of
| ten the complaint, and the reason is
often unknown. A correspondent in
the Queenlander thus explains the
matter
The bag or udder is divided into four
parts, entirely distinct from each other,
except that they are held together by
membranous ligaments. The milk in
each is held in continent tubes, which.
/ like the roots OF a tree, are all contract
ed into one, just above the teat-t the
milk entering that funel-shaped organ
by q single channel. Just at the upper
end Of the teat the walls Of this chan
mel are contracted, and the contraction
is surrounded by q band Of muscular
hbers. Tie will of the cow can ope-
rate on this band, contracting or .eX-
panding it at pleasure, making it ope-
rate like valve. At the junction Of
each smaller tube with larger one is
a similar contraction and band, also
under control Of the will, Ordinarily
these bands are contracted Gas ia the
neck Of the bladder) SO that the milk
has to crowd it's way through them to
get from the smaller into the larger
tubes. This is an admirable arrange
ment for sustaining the weight of the
milk equally in all parts of the udder,
and preventing it from pressing heaV-
lily upod the teats. When the udder is
full, if the milk is drawn out Of the
teats, relieving the pressure in them, it
requires q vigorous effort Of the will of
the cow to prevent the pressure above
from croWding the milk down to fill
the vacancy. If the udder is only part
ly filed, she can hold the milk back
more easily, and the less there is in it,
the more easily can she maintain the
tension of the muscular bands necessa-
ry to prevent entirely the milk from
lowing through them. When the
mixer first takes hold Of the teats and
begins to milk, the excitement causes
the cow to contract the bands so firmly
as to hold back the milk perfectly for
a time. But presently the vigorous
contraction will begin to slacken and
the milk will begin to pour through,
and if all is quiet she will relax the
bands fully, when the milk all settles
down upon the teats, and if quickly
drawn it can all be MIXED out to the
very last drop. But this perfect relax
alton will only last for short time.
If the milk is not soon extracted she
viii begin to tighten up the muscular
bands again, and the last part will be.
held back and permanently retained,
when the mixer probably thinks heI
has got it all, because it stops coming.
A cow should, therefore, be MIXED
quickly as we'll as quietly. A calf will
draw milk in three minutes, and a
mixer should come as near that time
as possible. If the time of milking is
much prolonged she will become impa-
tient, and be sure not to give down"
perfectly. The quietest and quickest
mixer gets the most and best milk, be-
cause he gets all the ''strippings,"
which are the richest part

How TO TIE UP RAsPBERRIEs.

EDITORS WESTERN RURAL have

berries, which has proved so convent

thao wish to give the numerous read
ers of The Western Rural the benefit
of it.
plant my raspberries in hills, six
by six feet, as | can cultivate and keep
them clean with much less labor plant
ed in that way. Drive one stake Ct
used two at first but find that one does
just as WelD on the southwest side of
the hill, then take common fencing
wire Smaller will do), cut it in proper
lengths, to make hoops about sixteen
inches IN diameter, turn small hook
on each end, bend it round and hook
| 1t together including within the hoop
the stake and the hill of canes.
Its advantages are: it supports the
fhill of canes perfectly without confin-
ing them too closely together, and in
the next place, if the new canes stray
gle outside of the hoop, as they are sure
to do, you have only to unlock the
wire, put it around them, and hook it
up again. Then it is easy to unlock
it when you go to cut out the old canes
after fruiting.
Make the stakes four or five feet
long and when they rot off YOU can
sharpen and drive down again. Thus
making them last number of years.
