An English authority on Jersey
cattle and butter making, says that
turpips may be fed to milch COWS
without impartipg sny flavor TO the
milk or butter, il the precaution is
taken to cut of the crown or top oil
the turnip wi b about one third OF the
bulb. The bottom two-thirds should
be given to the COWS. while the top one
third and crown can be fed to store
cattle or pigs.
The following good advice Is from
an txchange:-Many a hot and
tedious job results from negleciing
to learn farm animals to lead when
young; sometimes it is dangerous
either to the leader or led, in hot
weather. The best way to halter
break calves is to put small strap
around their necks and commence
to tie them behind the COW when
only q few days old. If tits has
not been attended to have the Toys
teach them to lead now, tax ng
them in the cool of the morning.
A new idea in butter making 10 to
stop the churn when the butter frat
comes the size of wheat grains and
draw off all the butser-milk. Wash
the butter granules With a stream of
clear, cold water until all vestige of
butter-milk ia removed, then salt the
butter granules heavily. The water
remaining on the butter will work
out most OF the salt, leaving the but,
ter with slight salt taste and in the
beat possible condition. No second
working is necessary.
An authority on Trout fishing, id
writing abeut the most desirable
kinds OF bait says; Common yellows
and golden palmeEs kill we'll; but
perhaps the best is the. red-haired
caterpillar OF the common tiger
moth, which locally has the name of
'wJolly BEAR" which at this time OF
the year is found on the shrubs and
other trees, lining the brooks. In
the brightest of weather and the
LATEST moods OF the trout this bait is
often fatal to him. if it is deity cast
on fine tackle few feet in front of
him.

The following from an exchange is
worthy OF consideration by persous go
afflicted: Many persons are suffering
pain and weakness OF the eyes. This
sometimes proceeds from local in
famtion, and sometimes from other
causes. Several persons who have
been thus afflicted inform US that
they have derived almost immediate,
end In some cases permanent, relief
from the application OF salt and
water as bath; and where the pain
has been aggravated, form a com
press with salt water laid on the ewes
and renewed at frequent intervals.
Opening the eyes and submerging
them in clean salt water has been
found beneficial to those wbose eye.

One of the contingencies of the |
hot months of June, July, August |
and September is the liability to
sunstroke. We have had two such
occurrences in this vicinity already
this season, while New York and |
other eastern cities have ex perIenced
q number of fatalities from that
cause. Those are most likely to be
sunstruck who sleep in close, i'll.
