Blue Milk.

Neelsen, German, has investigated
the cause of the blue color which is
sometimes found in milk. 1t is due to
the presence of small, rod-ike bodies,
which ultimately unite and form chains.
All these appearances of course are mi
croscopic. The cells, or rod-like bodies,
are the eggs, or more properly the spores
of bacteria. those microscopic organisms
so low in the scale of life that we do not
know whether to call them animal or
vegetable, and which have attained such
a prominence in science lately from the
fact that certain species undoubtedly are
the cause of contagious diseases among
animals and men.
According to Neelsen the rod-like
bodies do not develop unless placed in
fresh milk. As heat kills them, all that
Is necessary therefore is to boil the pans
of milk in water,-the most thorough
way of scalding.
We Judge this "blue milk to be some
abnormal quality of milk, and not simply
poor milk, Poor milk. arising from poor
feed or from sickness in the COW always
tends to look blue and thin, because the
yellow oil globules are absent But Herr
Neelsen's Investigations seem to have
. preference to an abnormal form of milk,
not known in this country; form where
a amarked blue color appears in the milk
of a healthy and well-fed animal

THE DAIRY.

Wisconsin cheese factorymen are
determined to fight the Hubbell suits for
royalty on cheese bandagers, and have
resolved to raise 81, 500 as starter for
the defense.
The dairy farmer who gives a varie-
ty OF feed to his cows will find a good
return in the milk pail for his trouble
Cows relish a change and improve ma

"A few years ago Chicago depended
upon the East for her butter and cheese,
but during the past year these products
had been shipped from Chicago East, by
the million of pounds. Formerly ssWest-
ern grease in the market reports meant
Illinois and Iowa butter, and it sold at
the bottom figures, often at about one
quarter the price of good, sweet butter.
But this is now all changed. The premi-
ums at the Centennial Exhibition in Phil
adelphia, and at the great dairy fairs held
in New York City. were largely awarded
to Western creamery butter, and at one
of these exhibitions the best Eastern but
ter was given but eighty-four points in a
scale of one hundred, while the Judges
found three Western samples which they
marked eighty-ive, ninety-four and
ninety-six, respectiyely.-NeaO England
Farmer.
Il viii here give my opinion with re-
gard to the conditions under which In
dian meal may be fed proftably to dairy
cows. Some cows run to flesh; you give
them very much Indian meal and it in
creases the flesh propensity, without
affecting advantageously the milk pro-
ducing quality, hence the farmer says it
will dry UP the cows; but fed in any
moderate, and even what would be
called an immoderate quantity it will
not dry up q good milking cow. My
ideal of milch COW is one that will
respond in milk, to the additional
amount of food you give. her, very lib
orally, going very far in that direction
without running to flesh. While four
quarts of meal, or peck of meal, would
dry up some cows, it may be fed adyan-
tageously and. as far as have been able
to judge, proftably to the class of COWS
in which the milk producing tendency
largely predominates.-Cor. MdSsdchH-
sets PlouQhznan.

frequently matter of accident. This,
however, is not the case with Taraxine,
now widely known and approved as an
almost infallible remedy for the Liver
Complaint and diseases of the Kidneys

for many years used various prepara-
tions of dandelion root in these diseases
but with only Indifferent success. After
long series of experiments, a combin-
alton, with the active principle of the
Dandelion as basis, and other approx
ed remedies to heigthen its potency has
been effected, and the desired specific
for these diseases has been found in the

Household Interiors.

There is nothing more indicative of
refinement and genuine culture in q
family than cheerful. and tastefully
decorated rooms in which the furniture
itself, selected with view to harmony
and good taste, contributes largely to
the artistic aspect of tie place, whether
it be the parlor, dining-room or sleeping
apartment. Tasteful decorations do
not necessarily enforce any expensive
outlay. Nowadays American homes
are made inviting and enjoyable at a
very moderate cost. In this connec-
ton the tact and skill of housewives
may be made effective; and, indeed,
since the household is her domain, she
has it in her power to render it attract
i've or forbidding, according as her skill
and taste for adornment is exemplified
in tho arrangement of each room. One
writer on the subject says, "Show me
the mantelpiece of a house and / will
tell you what manner of people reside
therein. As to furniture, it may have
been left to the discretion of the up
holsterer, or have come down TO you
from your great-grandfather, or been
found in an auction room, or purchased
l Lsecond-handed; but with the ornaments
I of your chimney and fireside 1t is q diff
ferent thing: the mantel is the true
altar par excellence, dedicated to the
lares and penates."
No picture ought to be hung higher
than the height of the average human
eye when the person is standing. 1t Is
the almost universal rule in our houses
to hang pictures much above the level,
a practice which prevents an enjoyment
of the view. If the picture is portrait,
or If it have human faces in it, its eyes
should look as nearly into ours as pos
sible; and If there be no such simple
guide, perhaps good rule will be to
have the line that divides the picture
horizontally into equal parts level with
the eve. If the rule is observed in hang
ing pictures to place them so that they
can be easily viewed without distorting
the body, the effect desired will natu-
rally follow.
Connoisseurg often transform their
homes into miniature museums by over
loading their walls with pictures, and
their mantels and brackets with curios
in Oriental and antique art. But moth
ing strikes a visitor with more pro-
found estimate of the commanding taste
and culture of the host and his family
than moderation and studied effects in
the number, character and disposition
of the art ornaments which embellish
their parlors and drawing-rooms. The
interest with which visitor regards q
home is very different from that which
attracts him to view collection of this
character. To find scattered about .
home, Just in the right hooks and inches,
objects of art which seem exactly suited
to the places assigned them challenges
our admiration. But an object of art In
home, as expressed by popular crit
ic, is entirely and always out of place
whenever it shows that the interest of
its owner is in the object rather than
the home. A collection usually betrays
a passion or a taste which subordinates
the love of home Boston Transcript.

The MIIk of HeIfsrs and Young Cows.

While heifers and young cows are
growing their milk is not so rich as
when their growth is completed. This
would be fair inference from the fact
that what is taken from their food to
build up their bodies and maintain
bodily warmth, is identical with what
goes to make milk rich; and that while
growth is going on. the milk glands
would not be so well supplied with the
elements for making rich milk as when
growth has been completed; and COM
parison of milk in the two stages of life
shows this to be true, but the difference
Is very little. The principal effect upon
the action of the milk glands from the
absorption of the elements of food for
assimilation and growth, is to diminish
the amount of their secretion rather than
alter the natural composition which
their individual constituents incline
hem to produce. The richest and bes'
milk is produced Just after growth
ceases, while the vital force is most vig-
orous and active. When cows become
SO old as to lose in vital force, their Sc
cretious of milk, like their digestion
and assimilation, become less perfect. -

Fall Setting OF Raspberries and Black
berries.

Our experience has been such that
hereafter our setting of blackberries and
raspberries will be done in the fall, and
the following viii be our plan: II to
grow in hills we shall plow ground but
not harrow it, then plough out burrows
six feet apart each way and at the cross
ing set plant. If in rows mark one
way with a corn marker and plough the
other way good burrows six feet apart,
then set plant in furrow in line with
commanders teeth. You ask why we
would not harrow-simply because we
prefer to leave the ground up loose as
possible, and as soon as spring opens
and the ground is dry enough to 60 on,
run a smoothing harrow-or drag will
do-over the plantation both ways. This
levels down the ground nicely and does
no harm to the roots of plants. As soon
as plants are up run over them again
with the smoothing harrow lengthwise
of the row, having team walk with a
row between them. This puts ground
in best of order, stirs up the surface and
kills out all weeds and gives the plants
a splendid start, and not one in fifty
will fail to grow, especially il a small
quantity of litter is thrown over each
hill Just as the winter sets inc Plants
will not only start better but will make
almost double growth the first year of
those set in the spring. There is much
more time to do it well in the fall, and
the manure can be thrown right on the
hills through the winter, taking far less
than If scattered broadcast.-FTuit Re-
