AGRICULTURE.

VENTILATION IN THE DAIRY. i'm
portanco Of current of pure air
through mllk-room where the milk is
set for cream is not sufficiently under
stood. 1t is supposed that if tho apart
ment is airy, dry and clean, aud FREQ
from oiors more or less offensive or even
Objectionable, these are sufficient. But
they are not sufficient unless tho term
airy is understood in its fullest sense rs
INCLUDING not only a large space but
also constantly moving and renewed
body OF fresh, pure air, that has not
been deprived of its proper share OF OK
ygen by any previous process Of con-
sumption. This IS necessary for the
following reasons: First, exposure to
pure air prevents the formation Of acid
IN milk. 1t is known that milk will
sour very rapidly in the close atmos-
phere OF cellar in which the air has
been deoxidized by means Of decaying
vegetable matter, or in which the posts
or beams are affected by dry rot. Sec
ondly, we know that this first souring
Is due to tie change OF the milk sugar
lnto lact;o acid, spontaneous change
III which no alteration OF the clements
las occurred, and which requires moth
ing moro than the mere absence Of oxy-
gen to affect 1t.
This change will take place very
quickly, as many milk dairymen find to
their surprise and cost, when milk is
canned tightly before it has been cooled
and aired sufficiently. Thirdly, we
know that this needed airing simply
affects the oxidation of tho milk reuuir-
ed to destroy the germs present in it,
and by tho operation OF which tho
change of the slilk sugar to milk acid is
produced. Fourthly, it Is known that
exposure to mir, and necessarily to oxy-
gen, which is tho only active element
IN the air, develops high Hayor in the
cream md in tho butter made from it,
and That cream 80 exposed to tho mir, or
ns we term it in common parlance, rip.
encd, churns more easily than other
cream, and produces tho very best quail
1ty of butter as regards color and flavor.
The fact is, the flavor of butter, md of
cheese as we'll, is developed only by IL
process OF oxidation, airipg or ripening,
Tor all these terms mean the same thing,
and II the dairy or checsc-room is not
well ventilated and provided with album
dance OF fresh, pure, moving air, good
butter or cheese can not be made.

Business View of 1t.

The Chicago Daily Ne,us makes a
novel proposition to saloon keepers.
1t is this:
''No license fee to be asked, but
the saloons to hold themselves re-
sponsible for all damages accruing
from their business. For instance,
If father dies from deIerjun, tren1ens,
the saloon interest to either by the
Liquor Dealers Association, or the
keeper of the saloon where the de-
ceased was good customer, him
self, to take the place of pater fame
has, supporting and educating the
family precisely as the father
would have done had he lived and
performed his duty. When man
under the influence of liquor, COM
mits an assault, the saloon interest
should furnish counsel for his de-
Tense, pay his fine, and in all re-
spects make matters stand as they
would have stood had the man not
been intoxicated on the liquors.
Should man commit murder un-
der the influence Of liquor, the sa-
loon bureau sheald defend him, and
if he is hanged should support his
family, or do the same in case he is
sent to the penitentiary Rail
ways, says the Ne,os, care held re-
sponsible for those whom they
MAIN and kill; the driver or own
er of runaway team may be held
responsible for damages; how much
more, then, ought saloon-keepers to
be held accountable for the bad re-
suits Of their operations ?0

HILLS AND NO Illusion the
subject of killing or not killing

Country Gentleman, says: Several
years ago | became convert to fiat

son convinces me that this mode is
preferable to the forming of hills
around the plants. This season
being very moist one in thiss sec
ton, fully demonstrated with nae
that in moist as well as dry sea-
sons, fiat culture is the better of
the two, Just across the fence
from my potato patch was field
of my neighbours, of about four
acres, planted about ten days be-
fore mine The ground is alike on
both patches-clayey loan. My
neighbor manured more heavily
than | did. He adopted the hill
ing method of culture, and l the
fiat method. In the early part of
the season his made much more
vigorous growth than mine; in
fact, the foliage in his field covered
the ground before mine had begun
to grow. AS the season advanced
mine gained in growth upon his,
and maintained greener foliage
longer His ripened about a week
ahead of mine, but while his crop
averaged $50 bushels to the acre,
mine averaged $50 bushels to the
acre. There was seventy bushels

fiat culture requires less labor than
killing, produces heavier crops, and
the quality is just as good, with all
other conditions the same.n

Exit Whisky.
Hoa0 Prohibition is Failing IN Kansas.

To say that the liquor law can
not be enforced is nonsense, as we
have all along insisted. Topeka's
open drunkard factories were held
up as so many unanswerable argu-
ments that twenty outlaws could
rule a city Of twenty-five thousand
people with legal sway, and that
perpetually. 1t required more
than year for the people here to
learn that dramsellers are persist
emily bad men, and that they re-
spect themselves as little as they
do decent and respectable people.
But when this lesson was learned
it had its perfect work. Meetings
were held, committees appointed,
money deposited, suits begun, costs
piled up-and then the mayor
joins in, the city council follows, a
proclamation ordering the saloons
closed is published, and an ordi-
nance providing ways and means
to enforce the proclamation is pass
ed, and lol two days before the
time named in the proclamation,
the dramshops are all closed, and
the imperial body of rumsellers in
organized body beg the county at
torney to dismiss the prosecutions
pending against them, and they
offer to pay all costs now due,
amounting to some twenty-five
hundred dollars.
To day there is not a whisky
shop in Topeka. The room direct
ly opposite the window where this
is written, a place that has been
like beehive, with swarms of
people going in and out all hours
of the day and most of the night,
is deserted-not a man or boy to
be seen staggering about its large
glass doors with big screen be-
yond. 1t is a decent looking place
now. Exit whisky.-Kansds Farm

COnSecrated Sarcasm.

Our readers will enjoy the conse-
Grated sarcasm of the Reverend
editor of the Pittsburgh Christian
Aduocate, in the following editorial
from last weeks issue Of that most
excellent journal:
THE CAUSE IN IOWA.
The cause of Temperance in
Iowa has received a hard blow in
the decision of the Supreme Court
Of the State sustaining the decis-
ion of the Court below that the
Prohibitory Amendment was not
passed according to constitutional
requirements. The fault was sim
ply technical, and was committed
by an engrossing clerk. Nobody
doubted the intention of the Leg
islature in submitting the matter
to vote of the people, nobody
questions the vote, or the method
of casting it; but by trifing
omission of a clerk, the will Of the
people, expressed in due form, by
a majority that leaves no room for
debate, must be put aside. 1t
would seem as if the Court attach
es more Importance to shadows
than to substance, and to tech
nlcality than to principle. What
will be done now is question that
everybody is asking outside of
Iowa. That the friends of Prohi-
bition will lie down and die under
the burden of a technicality, is
not to be apprehended for mo-
ment. They will pick their fints
anew, arm and fire again, and bag
their game, with a little more
caution. A large amount of labor
IS to be done over again, and large
expenses are to be incurred; but
the work must be done, for the re-
form must be consummated. They
Will, doubtless, have the aid this
time of the brewers and distillers
and saloons, for hasn't the new
Governor of Kansas assured the
public that since that state be-
came prohibitory, the consump-
ton of whisky and beer has in
creased to an amazing extent. An
opportunity is now afforded for
these classes to extend the market
TOR their products, and they ought
to be willing, and doubtless will
be, to foot the bills necessary to
gain this object, 1t will be some
thing new to see distillers and
brewers and saloon keepers pay

There was no activity, however, during the
morning and the same state of affairs ex-

a feeble squirt early to 8O4c, followed by
a relapse, and sold at 1890. There were
couple of sales in Pullman Palace at
131 and 1915, little gain over yester-
days figures. Stocks dragged during the
last hour, and prices as a general thing
were easier. There was good deal of
general debility. The situation becomes
more and more diseouraging to holders of
stocks. The bears leave no stone un-

The performances of the company have

the company is made up of ladies and
gentlemen of taste and intelligence, and

night of Miss Eta Hawkins, who sang the
