Preparing for Receipts of Gold Shipment

Preparing for Receipts of Gold Shipments
WASHINGTON, Aug. 30.-The Treasury de-
partment directs that $30,000,000 of gold coin
in the New York sub-treasury be placed 10 the
credit of the Superintendent of the assay office
in that city, This coin is to pay for foreign
bullion as it arrives. After the bullion is as
sayed the superintendent of the assay office
checks against the gold coin to his credit in the
sub treasury to the amount of the assay. 1t is
officially estimated that about $4,000.000 of
foreign gold will arrive in New Yonk each
week the LIST of November.
Census Report on Oysters.
The Superintendent of the Census at WASH
ington has received advance sheets of the
special report on the oyster interest of the
Chesapeake Bay. This is an interesting paper
relating to curious industry. 1t appears that
it has been the plan of the Legislatures of Ma
ryland and Virginia that each state should de-
rive revenue from the natural oyster beds be-
longing to it. Many laws have been passed to
this end. The expense of enforcing them,
however, is very great. Last year the amount
received from licenses in Maryland was less
than the cost of maintaining the oyster police

Hints to Dairymen.

The most enterprising and success
full dairymen carry on what is known as
winter dairying. Every one cannot
make butter in winter, and the MAORI
ty of dairymen are compelled to do
their business in the summer season.
But no one is obliged to sell his prod
uct as soon as it is made unless it
is so made that immediate sale
is necessary to preserve it from de-
terioration. If butter is we'll made
and well packed it may be kept for six
months with perfect safety, and some
experts are convinced that the best
made butter ripens and improves in
flavor by keeping, because the particu-
lar essential oils which give the aroma
to good butter become slowly developed
when the latter is perfectly well packed
and preserved from the atmosphere.
Manufacturers of goods rarely or never
crowd their products on the market as
soon as they are ready for sale. They
watch the markets, and the selling of
their goods is one of the most important
parts of their business. Their profits
depend in a great measure on selling at
the right time and holding off at the
wrong time. 1t should be so with the
dairyman. But he cannot hold off I'M
less his butter is so well made and
packed that ii may be kept over for
weeks or months without injury. Fall
trade butter, from the fresh growth of
grass which is now beginning to spring,
as the cool, dewy nights and seasonable
showers occur, is of as choice q quality
as any. The success of the dairy bust
ness depends upon excellence of product
and sales made when the highest prices
are current. Doubtless the mere sug-
gestion of these points will draw mature
consideration to them from our interested
readers. -Rur0L NeW YORKER.

To Keep Seed Pure.

WE have the oft repeated testimony
of many farmers, who have tried the
experiment, that changing the locality
of seed increases the productiveness of
many kind of crops. 1t is therefore
reasonable (although the why and
wherefore is not generally understood)
that there is something in it, although.
after all, think that equally good if
not better results may be obtained by
judicious system of selection, culture
and rotation on different sections of the
same farm. 1t is my opinion, corrobo-
rated by experience and observation,
that system of selecting seed and
planting only the most perfect of its
kind, would obviate all difficulty and
complaint of poor crops and seed, aris-
ing from this source. For example, in
planting potatoes, plant none less in size
(and those whole) than hens egg, and
no overgrown tubers, and follow this
with regular rotation, not growing
related crops on the same ground oft
ener than once in three to five years
Select the best, most perfect kernels of
wheat, sowing only such; also the best
and most perfect of all kinds of seeds,
taking pains to save from the best repre-
sentatives of the variety. Instead of
deterioration, as we often hear, improve
ment in both quantity and quality will
then result. know farmers who, in
stead of pursuing such course, sell the
best because it brings better price in
market, and then they go to others for
seed, or plant such as is left of their own
after the best is disposed of, and then
complain that their crops deteriorate,
whereas, had they pursued the course
indicated above, in a few years their
crops, as well as their purses, would
greatly improve.-C0 Cor. Country Gentle

THE DAIRY.

A CORRESPONDENT of the Rural Ne1C
Yorker says that simple remedy for
warts on animals is the application of
muriatic acid. Small warts can be
safely cut from cows udder and killed
by drop of muriatic acid applied with
the point of small stick He has also
removed fat warts the size of twenty
five cents piece from the inside of a
horses leg by carefully scraping off the
top and applying muriatic acid in the
same way.
WATER is one of the best of deodor-
izers. 1t has great absorbing capacity;
and fresh water running through a
milk-room keeps it free from odors.
Standing water soon becomes charged
with odors and then gives them off
again. Water used in a milk-room to
cool the milk is great purifier, but
must not be permitted to stand more
than twelve hours before being re-
newed.
"1HEARD notlong ago." says a cor
respondent of the National Lie Stock
Journal, " of the way in which re-
markable record was got for COW. A
gentleman called to see the herd and
was shown, with great pride, the COW in
question, and told of her immense yield
of milk for two months after calving. He
examined the animal closely and could
not find in her traces of such great
milking qualities. He left; but was
around the next morning at milking
time, and was rather astonished at the
small quantity of milk which the Pride
of the Stable gave. After subjecting
the mixer to close examination, he
learned that she had been fed all the
grain, in the form of slop, which she
would swill down three times day for
the two months of her milking trial.
The record was got and the result
| (minus any mention of slop) given, for
the admiration of confiding public.
EVERY dairy utensil should be of tin.
No wooden vessel should be used in
milking, as the wood absorbs milk
which sours in the pores and there
curdles and every particle of curdled
milk, whether effected by rennet or by
acidity, like the leaven of yeast, is an
active agent for souring other milk. As
curd of milk is hardened by heat and
made insoluble, dairy utensils should
first be washed with cold water and
soap and when thoroughly cleaned they
may then be scalded. Curd is dissolved
by alkili and the alkali of the soap not
only removes the grease of the milk but
also any particles of milk which by ac-
cident may have been retained in a
crevice or corner and there soured or
curdled. To make the cleaning of dairy
vessels more easy it is well to have no
sharp corners but to have all the joints
made round, and this may be done
easily if one has the milk pals made to
order.-RuraL Nea0 Yorker.

The Curing Room.

THE just how to cure cheese is a
still unsettled controversy, but few
facts have been established, and among
these the demonstration that The
fiavors peculiar to the best factory
cheese are only developed in a warm,
airy place. A curing room should not,
however, be kept so dry that the cheese
will lose its water very rapidly, as in
this case, although high flavor may
be obtained, the casein will not be
thoroughly broken down, and the
cheese will be hard and indigestible
The breaking down of the case
in appears to be caused by some
agent contained in the rennet, which in
many particulars resembles an or
ganized ferment, that acts very slowly
when the amount of water present in
the cheese is less than the casein, and
stops its action entirely when the casein
is in large excess. A good illustration
OF the fact that cheese will not cure
when deprived of large part of its
water is furnished by the formation of
the rind, this being composed of thin
layer of casein which has partially dried
before the curing has made much prog
ress. A rind will not form on a cheese
kept in moist atmosphere, nor on the
cut surface of cured cheese. l believe
that lack of water is the chief reason
why cheese made from skinned milk is
so difficult to cure. Analyses show that,
although the percentage of water is usu-
ally high in such cheese, the ratio of
water to casein is much less than in
cheese made from whole milk"

Found BY a Photograph.

A poor woman had an only daughter
who wandered from her and was brought
as low as sin could bring her. Her
Scotch mothers heart yearned after her
daughter, and she tried by all means to
discover her whereabouts, that she
might invite her home. All her efforts
were for time unsuccessful. At length
she hit upon rather strange expedient.
Getting number of her daughters
photographs-taken from one in her
possession-she went with them to the
town and neighborhood where she
thought it most likely her daughter
would be found. Here she asked some
of the shop-keepers to put one of the
portraits in their windows and beneath
each she wrote the words, "Come
home" All promised to do what they
could to assist her. The photographs
were put in the windows and people
gathered round to look at the strange
words beneath the picture. At length
a poor worn woman came and pressing
through the crowd looked at the photo
graph and read the words. None but
herself could tell that she was the per-
son from whom it was taken, sin had so
married and ruined her. She remem-
bered the happy days when in her in
nocence she was fair and lovely, and
the thought of it and her home and her
mothers love in thus seeking her, broke
her heart. She resolved to return and
did.

Preachers and Health.

The New York correspondent of the
Troy Times writes: sour preachers
as a profession are very healthy, and it
is for this reason that the death of
Adams has occasioned such general no.
tice. 1t is looked on as an unusual
thing for preacher to be laid up from
work. Life insurance companies al
ways prefer risks on this class, and per-
haps their temperate habits have much
to do with their Longevity. Looking at
the profession, the following brief re-
cord may be given: Among the Bap-
lists William r. Williams stands promi-
nent. He has been preaching for more
than forty years, and is now seventy-six
Vermilye, the senior Reformed Dutch
pastor is seventy-seven. Fifty-five years
have elapsed since his ordination. The
senior Tying is now in his eighty-first
year, and it is fifty-nine years since he
entered the ministry. These men be-
long to the retired list There are,
however, instances of working clergy
who have reached a mature age. Ell
bert S. Porter, of the Reformed Church,
is sixty. Ormiston is but year young
err, and Chambers is sixty-one."
