PUSH Your BUTTER Cows. 1t pays
to feed cows giving milk, literally.
Butter is high and now is the time To
feed protitably. Every COW should be
made 10 produce as much butter as pos
sible. Whenever butter is thirty cents
per pound or more, there is money in
the dairy business, and the man who
feeds most literally and judiciously
Will make the greatest profit. Meal,
both cotIOnseed and corn, roots pump
kins and fodder corn, should ali come
in Tor a share OF attention as profitable
food for dairy cows. Whatever kinds
OF food are used, the cOSs should have
all that they can protitably turn into
milk. Many men ieel that they Cannot
afford TO buy grain for feeding 10 cows
at this season of the year. Let them
take different view, ask themselves
if they can afford EOt to buy grain 10
feed TO cows when butter is a. high as
it is at present.

WATER Fowls FOR FARMERs.-lt Is
an unaccountable fact that the raising
of geese aud ducks in quantity Ior the
market is so much neglected by our
American farmers while Englishmen
possessing only a few acres and access
TO a stream or pond rsise such large
numbers with a good profit. Many
readers of this paper have creeks run
ming through barren parts oil their iaho
near by which could be placed eheap
houses for geese, as which no lana or
water fowls can be so easily raised or
at so good a profit. Having once Sc
cured good breeding stock or three or
four: geese mated 10 one gander, ali
large fine specimens, the same hock
can be retained for breeders for SIX or
eight wears at least. In summer they
will thrive on pasture alone. 1he
geese began laying in February, ana
lay thirteen to fifteen eggs. Either
turkey hen or a large Asiatic hen can
be used tor incubatiDg, which requires
thirty days; sprinkle the eggs with
tepid water for about ten days before
Matching. Feed the young goslings
..nttle and often" with hard bCiled
eggs. bread crumbs and scalded meal;
they are soon ready to shift for them
selves and can be marketed without
extra fattening as ''green geese.
Even the farmer who has no stream OF
running water, can raise geese profit
ably by giving them plenty OF fresh
water for drinking and large tank or
tub TOR bathing. The principal varie-
ties of thoroughbred geese are the
Toulouse, Bremen or Embden and
Hong Kong or China. or these the
Toulouse are the largest, having reach
ed the maximum weight of sixty pound
per pair, and goslings forty eight and
a half pounds per pair, at the Birming-
ham show in England. They are OF
gray color, with white on the belly,
and are valued for their feathers, and
are as often as large as the Toulouse
the greatest weight ever known being
fifty-eight and half pounds per pair.
The meat is very delicate. they are
hardy and good layers. The Hong
Kong geese are much smaller than
either of the preceding, but are the
best layers known; often laying three
or tour l1tIers in a season, and some
times as many as thirty or iorty eggs
before setting.

The Ch0c late Man.

Emile Justin McDier, who cared not
who made the nations songs 80 long as he
made their chocolate, died recently in
Paris. In nothing was he more thor
oughly American than in his appreciation
OF the value and methods of advel tisiug.
The great belettered slabs of wooden
chocolate spelling out lis name have
wcaried the eyes of oil civilized people,
but his masterpieces in this line were
naturally reserved for France. For years
it has been at least impossible to stir
abroad there without reading lie meilleur

that he liked Lis chocolate tolcrably well,
but it had one 1ault-it grew white as It
grew old. Memer took the bull by the
horns, and the neat day every newspaper
aud dcah-wull in Paris announced lie
chocolat McDier: the only chocolate that
grows white us it grows uld." 1t would be
interesting to know how many million
pounds OF chocolate Menlcr have since
been bought because OF that remarkable
quality. Whether Menier's chocolate does
really grow white with age, and whether
other chocolates do not do so as well, and
whether doing so Is or Is not recommen-
dution, of course nobody ever knew.
