Does it Pay.

Judge Faville, OF Mitchell county,
Iowa, writes as follows to an inquiring
friend, on the creamery and stock bus
mess:
The first essential in starting cream
cry is pure water and plenty of it. We
use 40 to so barrels day. A joint
stock company is best. Plenty of land
for buildings ana hog yards and pens,
16 to 20 acres IL possible Our teams
gather cream Is to 90 miles day. We
use the Cherry can, and also the com
mon 81 inch can. An inch CT the for
mer, and two inches of the latter will
make pound of butter. A good prac-
teal butter maker will know what
washing is needed. We give % cents
on inch now; during December we paid
% cents. The farmers in Mitchell Co.
are all satisfied and are getting rich.
We calculate our COWS will average
from As to 80 dollars clear each year.
/ know COWS in the county that have
made an inch of cream every day for
sos DAYS, and the average price for the
yesr 49, cents-that ia over S67 to the
COW for cream sold, 10 say nothing of
the calf and skim milk.
believe the true way is to iced the
buttermilk on the ground to hogs, and
have corn cribs and pasture lots, and
be prepared to buy shoats and ship
carload every two months, the butter
milk from 800 COVE, with com etc,
will be great item. The old farmers
that you know, Stokes, Tibhetts, Cady,
Grow and others, raise no wheat now;
all grass and corn. Cows are all the
rage.
1t will be difficult to make the farm
ers in a new country understand this
dairy business. They all seem 10 want
to wear out their rica farms by wheat
raising, and spend all their money on
machinery. Cattle do not ;mpoverish
the soil, and when you have sold cream
for one season, you have them for
another, and another, and 50 Oh, and
when old make them into beef. / have
COW that will be 10 years old next
June and there are nearly so head on
the place that are her descendants, and
she is good COW yet.
don't know as / can help you any
in this. Farmers as 81 rule are inclind
to be stupid, and have got to wait and
see the thing worked cut by somebody
else.
In making Stock Company have as
few men as practicable. When there
are a good many few will have all the
work to do and the rest will find fault.
A capitol of $500 will start quite a
creamery. buildings well, engine or
horsepower churs, etc. etc. But, as |
stated, good butter maker viii know
how and what is needed.
Whoever starts creamery in your
neighborhood will be public benefac-
tor, whether he makes anything him
self or not.

and established by every legal means
at the disposal of the Commissioner.
1t is Of the highest importance that
YOU, who have done so much for scien-
tific agriculture, and all Others who
have the good of the cane industry at
heart, should thoroughly understand
this disposition of the department of
agriculture. 1t would be great mis-
fortune to have the value of the work
impaired by a mistrust which has no
foundation and jealousy which does
not exist.
TN undertaking the chemical work of
the department, it is with the express
understanding that my time and my
work shall be chiefly and peculiarly de-
voted TO fostering the sugar Industry,
and my selection was due mainly to the
earnest feeling of devotion | have to the
cause, and to the repeated marks of
confidence which the Mississippi Valley
Cane Growers Association had shown
| toward me.
I VIII net say anything here about
tho report of the Academy of Science.
The published letter Of Prot. Newcomb,
who after a consultation with the dis
tinguished president, Prof. Marsh,
asked for the withdrawal OF the report
''for such action as the Academy may
deem necessary" is sufficient answer
to your question. If these distinguish
ed gentlemen were not willing for that
report to go before the publi', until the
Academy had thoroughly considered
it, DR.. .Loring should not be blamed for
their action.
1t is not for the interest of the culture
OF Northern Cane that crude and hete-
rogeneous statements should, under
sanction OF authority be published as
accomplished facts. Ill-judged enthu-
siasr' often does more harm in day
than patient science can remedy in a
year.
In sill this discussion, the thing that
you and want to get at is the truth.
We have had a surteit of opinion and
assertions; we want now accomplish
ment.
AS long as the department of Agri,
culture is under the present manage
ment, you may rest assured that AL
that is possible will be done in Wash
ington, for the development of the SUI
gar industry, and every attempt in
the same direction outside of Washing
ton will receive there most hearty
support.

harmony and confidence, for the many
problems yet to be solved call for the

New Method of Making Batter.

In the recent description of p dairy
farm lying 40 miles north of Chicago
it is said that artificial souripg is prac-
ticed. This is q method probably new
to the craft. know of no dairyman
that has yet adopted It except Mr..
Brown. BY thus treating the cream,
all destructive processes are arrested,
and its workings are kept under per-
feet control. Although the cold bath
tends to raise the cream in from 30 to
60 minutes, the cans are suffered TO re-
main submerged until short time be-
fore the next milking. They are then
set over vat, and the milk drawn
from under the cream. The cream in
the morning is turned into cream
can, and the nights cream is added to
it, making a daily churning. Tho can
is then set in warm place until the
next morning, when sour cream, taken
from the cream that Is now ready to
cburn, is added in the proportion Of
one gallon to the barrel, Ii is then
left standing where it will rise to r
temperature of GA, being stirred oc-
casionally. In about II hours, or by
night, it is loppered, but is allowed to
stand u hours longer and then churn-
ed.

Going to bed When Sleepy.

have had little difficulty with the
bedtime business. The little ones 60
to bed when they get sleepy, and there
is usually an early breakfast to which
they like to get up, so they are sleepy
early in the evening. The bed feels
good to sleepy child, unless mere
mere sleepiness has degenerated into
crossness. If q child is half sick as well
az sleepy, it probably wants its mothers
arms. If little ones are taken arbitra-
rily away from their plsythings or
pleasures because sit is bedtime" they
learn to regard bedtime as natural
enemy. AS a little ones bedtime draws
near, the elder members of the family
should be considerate, and not propose
or introduce new smusements or pleas
ures, which will be hard for the little
ones to leave. If anything that would
have interested the little ones happens
after it has gone to sleep, it ought not
to be mentioned afterward in 4 way
to make the child feel that it has lost
something by going to bed early.-The

How 1t Worked in Millersburg.

MrLLERsBURa, O., August 29.-The
ridiculous character OF the Scott law was
again made apparent last night before
our Council A petition was before
them to allow the saloons to open on
SUNDAYS under section Of che Scot
law. Where. I ask, in the law do we
find any authority for Sunday labor
fwork OF necessity excepted and where
ANYBODY that may permi! it only in the
Scott law7 And that law the grant to
use the Sabbath day as other days is
only extended TO one class
Where is the power under the Law to
allow q farmer to house hi. grain on
Sunday? Where is i, 70 allow the mer-
chant to sell bis goods on that day I
Where is i, to allow the dav laborer to
earn his bread on that day = and so on
through the whole list; it is found no.
where save and except in the ninth Sec
ton OF the Scott law and that only to
one class and it i. the first law known
that openly and deliberately sanctions
Sabbath breaking.
1t allows the saloons TO ne open on
Sabbath days and closes them up on that
day. 1t allows them to sell to every.
body through the week aud it allows the
Councils to close them entirely. In fact
the Scou Jaw fs everything and anything
and can be twisted in any shspe to mean
anything desired Whv did not the
Scott law authorize the Councils to al
low the dry goods men to sell on Sum
day, the boot and shoe man, the provi.
sion dealer etc along with the saloons
and thereby show no preference
1t is well seen that the law has sop in
it for the l'qaor dealers and also for the
temperance people; and, take i: all in
all, is the merest excuse Of law fol
regulation, as it regulates nothing what
ever, but is an election"e'ing dodge put
in the form OF law and distributed at the
expense Of the state.
