Patent Flour.

Almost everybody knows Of patent
flour, but not everyone understands
what is. Stripped OF technicalities.
this is about the story Of it's manu-
facture: The best flour used to be
made of winter wheat. Spring wheat
yielded either much less in quantity,
or else so much of the bran got into
the flour in it's manufacture that it's
color was intolerably dark.
The wheat would be ground and then
bolted. In the refuse-the bran and
middlings-Would be included a large
portion of the spring wheat, and this
would sell more particularly for feed
for horses. Now the best Of -four,
and the most expensive. is made OF
this very refuse of the old-fashioned
process. It I'LL came out of the dis
covery of IL way to draw out the bran.
Under the new process the wheat is
ground about as before. The first re-
suit is an ordinary flour sold for ex-
portation. Then the remainder is
taken and put upon great horizontal
sleeves: and while agitation is going
on there an ingenious system of draft
is rushing up through, and carries off
the bran. What is left is the glutin-
Gus portion of the wheat, the most
nutritious and most productive, and
out Of this, purified now by the draw
ing off of the bran. we get our new
process flour. The result of the dis
covery Of the process has been to
make the poor spring wheat of Min
nesota and upper Wisconsin the most
valuable Of grain.-Portl0nd, Ind.

Cultivate the Taste.

There can be no doubt about the
ability of any man to cultivate his
senses. Hunters learn to see with
accuracy great distances, so do sail
ors; musicians bring the sense of
hearing up to the finest degree Of per-
lection. Blind men often become so
proficient that they can tell the color
of garment by simply feeling of it,
while men employed in the business of
buying and selling great varieties of
makes of butter, learn not only to
grade and tell the name of the maker
of each lot, hut in some instances
they can tell almost to a day the ex.

Will the FARMER, or some of it's
readers who are, or have been sheep
growers, tell us something about the
care and management of sheep? 1t is
not high-toned theory of scientific
breeding we ask for, but something
that poor man with small flock of
sheep, can put into practice and be
benefited by it.

A Remarkable Occurrence.

\ very unusual occurrence was
brought to light recently, showing
the extreme danger to stock in the
use Of wire for binding grain. On
Christmas morning Il young horse OF
miles from town, became very sick
and gave evidence of violent pain.
Mr.. Ant0nsen then came to town and
procured the services OF Veterinary
surgeon Kennedy, who left some med
icine for the animal, surprising it was
/: case of inflammation of the lungs and
bowels. The horse was treated until
Sunday morning-a period Of 81 hours
when she discharged a solid lump
of pieces Of wire, very nearly as large
as /, mans fist, and weighing ten
ounces, (Which is now Oh exhibition
ut this office). This ball of wire
must have been accommodating in the
horses stomach for at least three
months. as oats had only been fed
during harvest and the month of Sep
TENDER, after which corn alone had
been fed. OF course serious int'ama-
ton of the stomach, and no doubt
the bowels, also, had set in from the
irritation of the wire, and Mr.. Anton
sen thinks the horse will surely die.
This evidence of the fatal effect OF
the use of wire i'll binding oats-al-
though scores of other horses eating
oats from wire binding have escaped
death or even sickneSS-S!lOuld be Il
warning to farmers who use self-bind-
ers to use Irvine instead OF wire.-L2

its editorial discussions particular attention is paid to
subjects of special interest to citizens of Minnesota
and Of neghboring States. Its market reports, which
arc unsurpassed for fullness and accuracy pre-
pared expressly for its columns and the entire
range of grain, produce, live stock, provision and
merchandise, markets at all the chief commercial
centers, we'll Paul and Minneapolis and other
local points. In short it is especially commended to

act age of each lot. This is very
simply and efficiently done by cult
vativating the sense Of taste. We
once heard of an instance where 4
wine faster. men who become very
proficient in this art, being called in
to pass judgment on hogshead of
! wine. decided that there was a slight,
very slight, taste of iron in the wine.
This was not believed by the owner
of the wine until the cask was empty,
when he found small iron key in the
bottom of it. We do not expect
every butter maker to reach this
height of perfection in the art of
tasting. but there is one thing he
should do, and that is study the SUBJ
ject. TO do this, let him tast all the
fine butter he can get hold of, and not
, with the set notion in his head that
his make is finer, but with an honest
effort to find wherein this lot differs
from his own make. Has it strong
er butter taste, or has it, as it probably
has to him, more insipid taste-a
little to fine perhaps for his tobacco
tongue. If so, he should get his
| wife to do the tasting. When you
hear of I; man taking premium at a
fair or dairy convention this winter,
ride over, if it is ten miles away, and
examine his butter. Taste it over
and over again until you catch it's Pc
culiarities. Take some home, if you
can get it for love or money, and taste
and talk it over with the members of
your family. Some one of them will
be able to point out correctly the es-
sence of merit in it, and ten to one
you will be able to catch the hang of
the thing and be able to do it your
self.
In cultivating the taste for tasting
butter, one thing must be borne in
mind. Do not choose us the best
article that which is most liked by
your own family. They may have
their peculiar notions. What you
want to do is to study the tastes of
your customers, and make your butter
come up to their requirements, no
matter what opinion you may have of
their Judgment on the subject. 1t is
far easier to adapt yourself to them
than to force customers to take your
butter against their will. They will
not do it.-Americam Doirymon.

tisements of Mrs. Geo. Forman, and

Care In the Use of Postal Cards.

Great care should be taken In the
use of postal cards, which should never
be employed if you have anything of
an unusual or ambiguous nature to
communicate. An editorial writer on
he New York Times, evidently writing
of personal experience, says: "a news
paper man once planned story in
which lady unhappily married was
to sue for a divorce, and to make sure
of being correct, wrote to a lawyer
friend, stating the case as he meant to
describe it. Back came postal card

grounds you mention in New York

her husband was away at business,
raised a breeze in the household which
was not allayed for some days.

Mrs. Stewards Toilet

Saratoga letter: So much for the rich
est young woman present. Now for
the richest-no, won't say old, but
widow-Mrs. A. I. Stewart, who sat in
her private piazza. She has one Of the
cottages adjoining the island.
1t has been very truly remarked that
Mrs. Stewards style of dressing has
changed greatly since ten years ago,
when she used to congratulate herself
that she was wealthy enough to afford to
dress with simplicity. Now she wears
all that the most stylish and exacting
of dress-makers could demand in fabric
and cut, and her toilets are as inany as
a belle can boast in her first season. AT
the garden party she wore white bro
caded satin, thick and heavy enough to
stand alone, as our grandniothers put
it. 1t was flounced with deep point
lace over plain white satin plaitings,
and the corsage was cut with narrow
V to fit broad collarette of the same
lace
4 large cluster of white lilacs were
fastened at one side with diamond
buckle, and diamond buckles were on
the sleeves and sashes Of tie oyerskirt.
Youthful as this toilet was, it was not
unbecomipg, for, like her late husband,
Mrs. Stewart looks remarkably young
for her age, ard her slight, trim figure
and auburn hair would do for woman
OF forty.
