MILK-WHAT IS IT?-The natural
food for the young of all mammals is
milk-a rather complex fluid, the phys
ical properties of which it is not neces-
sary to describe. The principal con-
stituents are water, sugar, caseine, albu-
men, fat, and several salts. The sugar,
when separated, looks much like the or.
dinary kind from the cane, but is much
less sweet. Caseine is one of the lead
ing constituents, and is the part which,
when removed from the milk, becomes
the cheese. The caseine exists in small
particles in the milk, and is contracted
or gathered into large masses by the ac-
ton Of acids or rennet. The albumen
remains in solution after the caseine is
removed, and is separated by boiling,
when it appears as white curds, some-
what resembling the white of eggs in
appearance, as it does also in compost
ton. The fat is not dissolved in the
milk, but suspended as little globules
with thin coverings. In the process of
churning, these globules are broken,
and the fat collects in Jumps OF various
sizes. This fat, when worked, salted,
etc., is the butter of the market and ta-
BILE. The ash is but small part of the
milk, and consists of number of SUBJ
stances, which are left behind when the
milk is dried down and burned. There
are many things to influence the per
centage of these various ingredients of
milk. 1t is unlike in different species,
and among cows, the breed, feed, gener-
al treatment, age of animals, ETC., all
have modifying influence. e.-American

FARMERS, w1vrs-Gt is no wonder
that farmers wives break own 50 early
in life. Working late at nigh Us, aI.er q
day of continuous toll, is one Oh tne
main causes. One woman tells me that
she never sews stitch until the rest OF
the family are abed, then she runs the
sewing machine until almost midnight.
She says, "What blessing this ma
chine is to me, but do not quite agree
with her, for she is so tired when she
does retire that she cannot rest. She is
only thirty-eight years old, yet she looks
to be fifty. Her husband is as much in
the fault as she is, if he could only be
brought to see it. He begins in the
morning by keeping breakfast waiting
till every possible thing is done outside,
working over the hot stove to keep
things Just as he likes them. Next, he
must have every boy and girl on the
place out helping him to get ready for
his days work meanwhile the house
work stands still while mamma cares
for baby. He is very particular to re-
quest that dinner should be ready at
twelve o'clock, when he knows that he
never gets ready for it before one. And
so it goes. With washing, ironing, bak-
ing, cooking, putting things to rights
and caring for children, she gets no time
to sew, and as for reading, that is out of
the question save little while of Sum-
day, and then the farmer generally mo-
nopolizes the solitary weekly. Under
no consideration will the farmer quit
his work before sundown, and that
brings the milking and most of the
'chores" after dark. Of course supper
waits. After that late, unwholesome
supper, the farmer sits awhile, tired and
sleepy, and consequently stupid, and by
the time tea things are washed and put
away he is ready to retire. Now, the
poor woman takes up her nightly task,
and works out the hours which should
be spent in sleep. I have no patience
with the woman who does so, or with
Watc7tnaan.

dispatch also refers to the subject OF ra-
tiops, but does not clear up the uncertain
ty In which his former dispatches to this
department as to whether or not he had
refused to issue ratIons to the prisoners
alreedy offered until the whole number
demanded should be surrendered.
Secretary Schurz Immediately replied
to the dispatch by telegraph, requesting
General Hatch to furnish information upon
the following points, viz: whether the
White river Utes offered for surrender
are still in Ouray's power or whether they
have been released; also what chiefs are
with General Hatch land of what bands;
also whether there is any prospect of Gen.
Hatch getting into his possession Chief
Douglas and the SOD of Douglas, and other
culprits of Importance. who were recently
offered for surrender, His proposition to
take the Indians now with him to Camp
Garland is approved, and as he expresses
the hope that a complete surrender may
still he omplished. he is requested to
say what in his opinion, can be done By
direction of the Washington authorities
to aid. In conclusion, Secretary Schurz
telegraphs that he will send to General
Hatch dispatch, to be read to the Indian
delegation and also the Indians at their
Reservation, Immediately after his answer
to the foregoing inquiries shall have been
received here.

Col. Henry G. Deahna, late collector o.
customs at Sitka, Alaska. Mr.. Deahna
after being appointed collector at Sitka
was rejected by the senate without good
cause, and simply on account of the neg
ligence with which John. Sherman treated
his case. He was impoverished by the ex'
penses of his journey to Alaska and re-
turn, and the administration has steadily
refused TO do anything for him.
The finance com mittee Of the senate, the
other day, wrote Sherman that it hac
