Cheese for Formers Use

1t is said that less cheese is used by
farmers since the factory system went
into operation than Turing the time when
the manufacture was conducted in nearly
every house in the country. 1t would
not be strange if such was the case.
Farmers are more likely to use articles
they raise or manufacture than those that
they buy IN the market. The cheese
they formerly made were not always sala-
BILE, but they furnished good eating and
were consumed at home. Factorymen
have fallen into the habit of making
large cheese almost exclusively, for the
reason that the foreign market calls for
them. They..have become fashionable in
the city markets of this country. They
are not, however, of size to make them
popular or economical in communities of
/ farmers. They are quite too large to be
bought and used in private families. as
they become dry after becoming cut and
occasion a large loss. Farmers who are

Curing Hay In the MOtr.

Cor. Rural Home: Upon our CORTLAND
county dairy farm we have practiced for
years curing hay in the NOW, with the
results the most satisfactory. We cut
our hay at the time when the growth
was fully made; after the dew was off in
the morning, and any rain which might
have fallen on it. As soon as ali water
was dried off, while the hay YVES yet
green, we raked and cooked it, to keep
of the dews of the next night, and the
following day put it in the NOW. The
juices of the grasses all went into the
nov, as when cut. We only aimed not
to CARR in any f0Teii sn water. A NOW of
hay thus gathered, must have tight barn
and doors, and the windows must be closed
through the heating process. Give it air
as stack has and it would rot in pile.
But kept from the air it dries or cures
itself. AS to cows liking it, either clover
or timothy or mixed grasses, we know
they greatly prefer it to sun dried hay.
We doubt it being as good for horses.
This is no testimony based upon a single
experiment. We did it for years. With
out grain our cows came through the
winter in good flesh through all the
years of our farm life. We have been
told by our neighbors hundreds of times
that hay will all spoll,-it will rot in the
NOW. They did not understand the
theory of curing hay without air We
practiced it for years, gradually growing
into it, before we understood why it was
so. We now write this principle without
fear: "Hay will cure itself with all its
juices in, if kept from the air." Hay for
stacking must be cured by the sun.

There is much indignation expressed

soldiers on the roll, whose salaries are al,
200 year, have been assessed e24 each.
and the old soldiers are kicking against
this exaction, although some of them
have but one leg to do the kicking. Tha
house pages, who are generally the sons of
widows,o or have no father or mother. have
been assessed $40 to $l5 each, according to
the length of their service; and the labor
ers in the navy yards have all received
notice to pay up. This is also the case
in all the other departments of the gov
eminent. At 2 per centum upon the SAL
aries of 10000 Office holders, if all the
officers assessed pay up, the committee
will receive over $2,0O0,OoO from this
source alone, and 1t is believed that the
machine has sufficient power to exact
payment in all cases. Whenever the least
disposition is manifested to be obstreper-
Gus, two OK three removals will accom-
plish the desired end.

President William Fl. Vanderbilt, Vice

other magnates Of the Central Hudscn
road, passed through Utica on Saturday
on special train en- route to Denver.
Col. All switches were locked, crossings
tagged, and things generally were made
clear and safe. Ten miles east of Rome
the highest rate Of speed known IN this
country was attained-1I miles min
ute-at which rate they swung off from
the straight track on the curve at Vernon
Station. AS the switch rods clattered by
a heavy humping sound was heard In
the coaches, accompanied with unusual
jolts OF the train. At Oneida
they fairly flew oyer the road.
Every switch bar and every cross
rail gave undisputable evidence of its
presence by a really alarming jar to tho
train. A multiplicity of these proiec.
tlons at last alarmed the occupants Of
the train, and the bell cord was pulled
with a sudden jerk. Engineer Kenna
instantly applied the air brakes, and tho
train came to stop half mile west Of
Oneida, on sharp curve, An examina-
ton Of the train was made, resulting in
showing that the ponderous brake beams
under the tender were resting on tho
ground. 1t was then apparent that tina
party had travelled fully ten miles with
the heavy beams ploughing along the
track. William H. Vanderbilt was neves

seemed to have escaped, by only q mira.

F0ll-SOtra Rue.

Farmers Home Journal: Fall sown rye
makes the best early green food for cattle.
BY sowing broadcast from two to four
bushels to the acre in September or Octo-
Der in the corn-field, or where potato,
cabbage or any other crop has been gath
cred, and narrowing it in, there will be a
strong, succulent growth, fully three feet
high, TO cut in April. After cutting, the
stubble can be turned under ir time to
plant corn and garden vegetables, such as
beans, peas, cabbages, melons and pota-
toes, and especially sweet potatoes.
Within the last week or two. Prof. w.
N. Mcdonald has expressed to US his
thanks for having suggested to him this
plan of sowing rye in the fall for the
benefit of his cows in the spring, and he
says that the rye feed in April astonished
them all in the wonderful increase of
butter that it caused. 1t produced at
once large flow of rich milk from cows
that previously were almost dry. This
experience shows quite clearly how much
the quantity and quality of the milk is
influenced by this kind of food.

late for potatoes if the season should
prove favorable. If you have not been
able to put in as much corn as was in

with the next best crop. Not an acre

thickness OF six inches is required. If it

inches Is sufficient. A little fine earth.
pulverized lime, or ashes thrown over the
surface is great advantage. No labor
Is required to raise the crop except to pull
the weeds that appear through the COW
erlng. AT harvest time the covering will
be well rotted and can easily be removed,
when the potatoes will be found very
clean and generally free from blemishes.
This method of potato culture is not an.
plicable to large fields, but it can be prac-
ticed to most excellent advantage on
small pieces of ground that cannot be
plowed without difficulty. Potatoes can
be raised in this way on the site of old
hay or strawstacks. The turf on these
places is generally partly decomposed,
and the trouble of removing the hay OF
straw that remains is very slight. Il
corn-stalks are employed for partial
covering, some straw, hay, or leave:

Cucumbers are generally used for
making pickles in this country, and In
many respects there Is nothing superior
to them. They are difficult to raise in
many parts of the country, however, and
there are occasional seasons when they do
very poorly in almost all localities. Late

enemies that have rendered their cultiva-

In most respects caulifower is superior to

sively for making pickles. They are
largely used abroad, and are beginning

We wish to give our young readers
some definite idea of chemistry, of its
application to agriculture and other sci
ences. knowledge is always power. In
any vocation those are the most success
full men who are most familiar with the
principles of their calling, and know
how to apply their knowledge Intelli-
gent cultivatOrs of the soil are the most
useful members Of society, because they
are the producers of the raw material
that forms the foundations of trade and
commerce. We rarely read an agricul-
tural paper that does not contain one ar
tlcle or more that involves the principles
OF chemistry, and their application to
some science, so that chemistry is at the
basis OF the sciences that relate to mate
rial things.
All bodies are composed of elements, or
bodies, that have never been decomposed.
Chemists have discovered over sixty ele-
ments, large per cent of which are
very rare, and of no value to our pres
ent purpose.
We shall now consider only sixteen, a
number sufficient to illustrate the lead
ing principles of chemistry. These six
teen elements are twelve solids and four
gases.
The solids are iron, lead, potassium,
sodium, ammonium, calcium, magne-
SUM, aluminium, carbon, silicon, sulphur,
and phosphorus The four gases are
oxygen, nitrogen, hydrogen and chic
rine. Some of the solids are metallic SUBJ
stances, and were known and used in the
early history of mankind-some 5000
years before the four gases were recog-
nized as actual eXistences. Tubal Cain,
of the seventh generation from Adam,
was worker in iron and copper.
Some scientists suppose that the earth
was, myriads of years ago, an immense
metallic ball, and that its long exposure
to caloric, oxygen and water, had grad.

surface, so that now the earth is covered
with water, rocks and soils. These
