Forty to fifty years ago, and we are
sorry to say that the evil still exists
at the present time at points Tar
away from towns and cities and dense
populations, there was nothing SO
much neglected as the keeping OF
COW stables clean. As . co nmon
lule they were cleaned out once
week-on Saturday-and then It
was not 30 much on account Of the
comfort and health of the animal and
the oonHonisnco and tidiness Of the
mixer, a. simply because the pile Of
manure must be gotten out Of the
way to allow Of the putting up and
letting loose Of the cattle morning
and evening. We have seen the man.
urs In the cattle stalls two feet deed
Of almost clear dung, with the kinder
part of the animal at least one foot
higher then the front part, and the
cattle being driven out to the pasture
Geld with quantities Of fresh dung
hanging to their tanks, which from
day to day received layer upon layer
until it was one disgusting MAS, and
was left there until it became dry and
hard, and fell of in fakes Of its own
action. The litter-about q fourth
OF the quantity cattle now receive
consisted OF the stalks of corn-fodder
which could not be eaten, the weeds
left in the hay, the rakings of dirty
straw lying about the out-buildings,
and sometimes mixed with q few
leaves from woods The food of the
dairy COW consisted of musty corn
fodder, second crop clover, and or
chard grass badly Toured, chat from
the Winnowings ofthe threshed grain,
oats, straw, etc. They were of course
a. thin almost as skeletons, and their
product poor milk was about one-hali
what would have been obtained from
properly fed cattle, The fact is that
the farmer took no pride in his live
stock. The idea of giving them clean
stalls, good ventilation and nourish
ing food never entered his thoughts,
and lift had would have been regard
ed as an utter waste of money.
But look at the stables now Of the
dairy 3 ock! Their stalls are wide,
clean aud fresh, the cattle themselves
are bright and sleek, with no project.
ing ribs, pleasant to handle, well-fed,
comfortable in every way, and giving
two or three times the quantity OF
milkland as rich as it is abundant.
The butter from such cows commands
twice the price from its careful manu-
facture and uniform excellence. AT
the present time also the farmer feels
more pride in his dairy stock than in
anything else upon his farm. He
finds that they give double return
for all the extra care and cost of
their improved treatment, and that
he has nothing upon his premises
that pays him so we'll in every respect
as they.-Lancaster Farmer.

There were seventy-six camels in the

carrying 100 gallons of water to the
animal, and going nine days without
water themselves. firing of camels.
the Government condemned them,
and they were sold at Benicia to two
Frenchmen, who took them to Reese
river, where they were used in pack
ing salt to Virginia City. After
wards, the animals were brought
back to Arizona and for some time
were engaged in packing ore from Sill
yer King to Yuma, but through some
cause or other, there being no market
just then, and turned the camels loose
upon the desert near Maricopa wells,
and to-day they and their descen-
dants are roaming through the Gila
Valley, increasing and multiplying,
and getting fat upon the sueculent
sage brush and greasewood with
which the country abounds.

Cooking.

Theprogress of science has scarcely
affected the methods in use in the
kitchens. Few cooks know that in
boiling meats and vegetables it is the
heat which does the work, and so
they keep the pot boiling vigorously
all the while, simply to evapera: e
water, which must be replaced by re-
peated additions, when constant
temperature near the boiling point
would accomplish the same result
with no boiling, and a great saving
of heat. Substances containing albu-
men, like meat and fish, are put into
cold water, which allows the aIbumen
to be dissolved out and wasted, the
most nutritious part of the food, when
they should be put into water nearly
boiling hot to form a hard coat over
the out side and prevent all,loss.
But this pointing out ofmistakes and
abuses will not aid; We will try to
show better way.
Eggs are usually boiled three::or
four minutes. This is a mistaken
method. To cook an egg properly,
the white, or albumen, should be Just
curdled, while the yolk should be
hardened. Now, the yolk hardens
at a temperature when the albumen
curdles. But if cooked in boiling wa
ter the albumen is hardened, since it
hardens at that temperature, while
very often the yolk is not hardened,
because the egg is removed before
the yolk is properly heated. The
correct method, then, is to place the |
egg in small amount of boiling wa
ter, remove the vessel from the stove |
and let it cool. After ten or fifteen
minutes remove the egg and it will
be found properly cooked; the albu-
men coagulated bur not hardened; !
the yolk hardened.
