A Protest Agalnst Carlrlng arms.

Whether it be the climate, the ground
swell of the war, or what, the pro-
penSity of the American citizen to draw
his pistol at the slightest provocation,
sometimes with no provocation at all, is
a national nuisance as well as a national
crime and disgrace. A chance word, a
fancied insult, an impertinent but not
dangerous intrusion upon ones rights,
is often the signal for pulling out the
pistol, and after shooting with more or
less accuracy at the offender, killing or
injnring innocent bystanders. In a SER
mon upon the Presidents assassination,
the Rev. Robert Collyer, of New York,
said: "This Is not land of peace it is
q nation of armed men. The farmer
has revolver in his bedroom, and the
merest boy on the slightest proVocation
pulls out his pistol. Two hundred years
have proved that in civil life, at least,
the Quaker Is right. No Quaker ever
shoots, and no Quaker ever is shot.
There should be general disarmament,
and we should guard the sale of pistols
as we guard the sale of poisons. 1t Is
the brutality that comes from the
possession of weapons that does the
harm" The same journals containing
report of this discourse furnished an
illustration of its truth in their accounts
of gardner in the vicinity of New
York who, being much annoyed by boys
stealing his pears, drew his revolver and
began firing at them.l In the scuffie
that ensped be missed his aim entirely,
killed his daughter and severely manned
one of his employees who was standing
near. OF Whist use such q weapon

THE DAIRY.

1t has been satisfactorily made ap-
parent that the best floor for a milk,
house whore butter is made. is one of
hydraulic cement. perfectly tight. and
thus prevent milk from getting into
cr.seks and crevices, and destroy the
purity of the air in the apartment by
the decomposition of escaped milk.
The Society of Public Analysts Of
Crest Britain aud ireland have adopted
as q standard for the poorest pure milk
nine per cent OF solids, minus fats, and
two-hfths per cent. of fats-a total of
eleven-tifths per cent. of solids. There
IS little doubt that milk containing less
than this percentage OF solids is watered
or skinned
A teat in which there is an OPEN
ing at the side through which the milk
escapes is a subject for simple surgi-
cal operation, which is sure to be ef-
fective if performed properly. The
skin around the hole is to be removed,
and the hole enlarged into a slit, which
is then drawn together at the edges
with a surgeons stitch, and covered
with sticking plaster. A milking tube
is used to draw the milk until the slight
wound heals There is no other reme-
dy which will cure this defect or re-
lieve it permanently. Your family doc
tor would doubtless perform the opera
ton for you.-M Y. Times.
The dry weather has produced
much trouble with milk in various
places. the cause is doubtless impurity
in the water, from which even streams
and springs are not free. Where well
water has been used there is no trouble.
In dry season the air is filled with
a. dust consisting IN part OF myriads OF
organic germs, which, when they fall
upon moist herbage or into water, ger
inmate and produce various infusorial
plants which cause decay in whatever
they are found These are taken into
the blood and affect the milk, and are
|Ithe causes Of much disease besides in
animals which do not yield milk.
1t is very important to keep up the
flow of milk in COWS at this season
when pasturage is, generally short. II
the flow is once stopped, it is almost
impossible to get it back again. There
is . difference of opinion in regard to
the wisdom OF feeding the aftermath.
Almy claim that when the roots of
grass are left comparatively bare, the
grass is likely to get winter killed On
the other hand, if much dead grass is
left on the ground, it makes the grass
start later in the spring, and clogs the
moving machine. There seems no
doubt that tits well to feed the after
nath, Il 1t is not eaten down too close
r. This eirnS considerable good feed,
when Il is generally very much needed,
keeps the ground free from an excess
| of dead grass, and results in leaving as
much manure on the ground as the
erass would make, were it left on the
ground to decay. Massachusetts Plough

There seems to be something wonder
fully fascinating in the private paint
brush and the cans of prepared paint
that are publicly sold by unprincipled
and greedy men. The man who has
once allowed himself to paint the
kitchen chairs or the dog kennel takes
q step which he can rarely retrace.
His thirst for paint grows with indul-
gence, and he soon comes to feel
wretched unless he has brush in his
hands. Among private painters there
, exists strange and morbid unwilling
ness to allow particle of paint to be
wasted. The man who buys a pound
can Of blue paint with which to paint a
table, and finds that after the work is
done he has a quarter of a pound of
paint left. instantly tries to find some
other article of furniture on which to
use it. Thus he is constantly led ON
from one article of furniture to another.
and reduces himself to poverty, mad
ness and despair The story~of man
who was once respectable and worthy
citizen of Philadelphia presents a fear
full illustration of the misery caused by
private painting.
Mr.. Smith-was induced by an indis-
Greet friend 20 buy pound Of red paint
with which to paint q small dog-kennel.
Without rejecting upon the danger to
which every one exposes himself who
takes the nnhallowed brush in his hand,
Mr.; Smith painted the dog-kennel, and
with the quarter of . pound of paint
u was left undertook to paint the
beth-tub, in order, as he told himself,
that the paint should not be wasted. He
found that when the bath-tub was not
more than half painted his supply of
paint was exhausted. and he there
fore bought another can. With this
he finished the bath-tub, and had
this time three-quarters Of q pound
left. 1t was, Of course, impossi-
BILE for him to allow so much
paint to be wasted. and. accordingly,
he began to paint the six kitchen
chairs. There was enough paint for
five chairs only, and the wretched man
