The faster and more gently COW is
MIXED, the greater will be the amount
given. Slow mixers always gradual
ly dry up n COW, and for the reason
that If the milk be not drawn about
as fast as it is given down it will sub.
sequently be withheld, and that with
held is, as a matter OF course, what
is known as the strippings. in fact, the
upper surface of milk in the udder.
Many mixers draw the milk with a
strong downward pull--in fact jerk.
This should never be allowed; it irri-
tates the COW, and Injuries the bag.
Fill the teat and with firm pressure OF
the last three fingers empty it, draw
ing slightly on the ieat and udder at
the same time; so proceed alternately
with each hand until the milk supply
is exhausted. Many mixers get the
habit Of slow milking because steady,
firm, quick milking tires the fingers
and wrists, until by practice the mus
cles get use to the work. Until this
use comes naturally the individual
should only milk such number as
they can without severe cramping Of
the hands. What are MIXED should
be MIXED fast, increasing the number
until at last there is no firing whatev-
err. Five minutes is about the limit
that should be allowed for milking a
COW. There is another thing well
worthy of being remembered. Cows
should be MIXED as nearly at a given
hour, morning and evening, as posi-
BILE, since undue distention Of the I'D
der is always injurious.

1t is claimed by writer in the Gin
cinnati Enquirer that a certain rene
dy has been discovered by German
physicians for the cure Of consumption.
The medicine, benzoate of soda, will
elIectually destroy tubercles in the
lungs and is applied by inhalation.
The weight of the benzoate of soda is
to the weight of the patients body, as
one thousand to one; that is the case OF
man weighing 40 pounds, 2f
ounces would be the proper daily
quantity. This is used in a D per
cent. solution--i. G., five parts of the
substance to ninety.fve parts of wa
ter. The remedy should be inhaled
from an atomizing apparatus from two
to four times daily, SO that the daily
quantities will be divided into from
two to four portions. The boiler Of
the apparatus should be filed, in the
absence Of fresh spring water, only
with distilled water. The inhalations
should be at first gentle, and lher
gradually, with the increasing strength
deeper and deeper. They should mol
be praeticed beyond a half hour, wher
the patientr should take a rest. W.
hope our physicians will investigat'
! the matter and give II fair count.

GRATITUDE. - There is very
touching little story told of a poor wo-
man with two children, who had not
bed for them to lie upon, and scarce
ly any clothes to cover them. In the
depth Of the winter they were nearly
frozen, aud the mother took the door
of cellar off the hinges, and set il
up before the corner where they
crouched down to sleep, that some OF
the draught and cold might be kept
from them. One of the children
whispered to her, when she complain
ed of how badly of they were, "Moth-
err, what do those dear little children
do who have no cellar door to put up
in front of thems' Even there, you
see, the little heart found cause for
thankfulness.

ITALIAN GIRs.-The girls of Italy

So much is said about the paper
pulp which is extensively used in the
manufacture of paper that a brief de-
scription Of the process of making it
will be entertaining. Any white, soft
wood may be used. The bark is taken
of, the knots and dark and decayed
places cut out. II is then put into a
large caldron and boiled, which ex-
tracts all the glutinous matter AMI
resin and renders il soft. II is then
put on a large stone grinder, with
water pouring on il all the time. The
grindstone wears of the fibres until
they are finer than sawdust, which
float away into a receptacle. The
water is drained of by means of a fine
sieve, leaving the pulp, which consists
of fire fuzz or splinters Of wood. Ii
is white and requires no bleaching,
but is ready to be mixed with rag
pulp or anything else that has strong
fibre and receive the proper constitu-
ents TO make it into paste, after which
it is run oil into paper sheets, whereas
rags have to be washed and bleached
with chloride Of lime, soda ash and
alum, and such strong chemicals to
take out the color. Then they are
picked to pieces aud made into pulp.
The process by which wood pulp il
made is purely mechanical. IL can
be made cheap, say at about one cent
pound.

ro00.
The Comier-Journai, in an article
upon the newly proposed routes to thu
sea, has the following TO say Of thu
Richmond and Southwestern railroad
A new departure will shortly b.
made which will attract the attention
Of railroad men everywhere. Tn,
Legislatures Of Virginia and Of Ken
lucky have chartered the Richmond
and Southwestern Railroad. The di
reciors are Parker G. Chandler, vii
liam Amory, Jr., james l.. Little
Jr., Otis Kimball and Walter H.
Sweet, Of Boston; Leigh X. Page, Of
Virginia, and Jas. b. McCreary, Of
Kentucky. They propose to build a
q narrow-guage double track railroad
from tide.water through the noun
tains Of Virginia aud Kentucky di,
rect to Louisville, extending on to
Paducah, where Il will connect with
a narrow gauge road 10 Chicago. II
will also have n branch from Beatty
vile to Maysville aud Cincinnati,
which will run down on the banks Of
the Ohio to Louisville, where il will
connect with the main line.
The progress of this enterprise will
be watched with an interest that no
railroad project has excited since the
completion Of the Central Pacific. We
are assured that the managers are
men Of experience, ability ard ample
capital, and their scheme is far reach
ing and comprehensive. They have
engaged in work that, IL successful,
will be Of immense advantage to a
country that is almost unknown and
the resources Of which are untouched.
II the road is built according to the
plans already formed, IL will trans
form two States, and turn to Kentucky
much Of the wealth that now seeks
the West
This road, as we have said, is to be
n doubletrack. and laid with steel
rails; il will decline first passenger
business and make the carriage Of
freight the dominant feature ofthe en-
terprise. The trains will be run on
what is called the shuttle" system;
the line is divided into sections, and
all trains will be run at a uniform
speed over all sections, thus reaching
a minimum cost and minimum wear
and tear, and avoiding wild trains and
timetables. Under this
plan it is believed freight can be
moved as cheaply at the rate Of
twenty miles and hour as il now costs
to move it fifteen miles, and passen-
gers will be carried at as great a speed
as they are now profitably carried.

Gov. Blackburn has signed the
Whips Bill. This is one Of the most
outrageous bills ever showed through
a Legislature. Whips owns some
real estate in Louisville. Il seems he
is unable TO dispose Of il in the usual
way. Nobody wants it. .or his price
is too high. lie asks the State to
grant him power to dispose Of it by
lottery. The Legislature complies
with the request by passing bill to
that effect, and the Governor signs
the bill. The law-for law il isis
against public policy. 1t violates a
fundamental principle of Democracy
in confering special privilege of the
most odious character-a privilege
granted to a man who has not the
slightest claim on the State; who, SO
far us appears, has no claim upon
pubic sympathy, ana who Is re-
quired to make no return for
the special privilege conferred. A
few days ago Gov. Blackburn
vetoed bill intended to promote a
public charity on the mere inference
that a clause of the bill authorized a
lottery scheme, and the people APP
plauded. Now this same Governor
afiixes his official signature to a bill
which openly, undisguisedly author
lies a lottery, intended to promote the
interests If an individual, whose oh.
ject can only be accomplished by APP
pealing to the cupidity of reckless or
inconsiderate people. - [Covington
