Too MUCH LAND.-A great many far
mers, says an exchange, have more land
than they are able to manage properly.
They have to depend too much on hired
help, and many times they will let part of
their work 60 by default rather than 20 to
the expense of hiring. Such farmers would
make more clear money by having no more
land than they can work advantageously
themselves. It is not economy to stint
work on the farm, when crops need to be
put in or when they are to be cultivated or
gathered, any more than it is economy to
only half feed or attend to your stock. Ev-
erything about farm needs to be attended
to at the proper time, just as much as any
other kind of business. Every business
man knows that if he has more business
than he can manage, or neglects to attend
to his business at the proper time and
continues to do so, he will 60 to the wall
sooner or later. So it is, in measure, with
the farmer: If he has more land than he
can manage or more stock than he can at
tend to, or lets great portion Of his farm
grow up to weeds or his stock suffer for at
tention, he will lose money in the end:
Farmers, look into this matter and see II
there can't be an improvement madein this
direction.

THE DAIRY.

The near approach of the Presiden.

1t is wise to take these things as cool as

there is significance in the fact that
none of the creamery managers at the
recent Connecticut Dairy Convention
permit the feeding of cotton seed meal
TO cows whose milk they receive. It is
ncted also that fifty farmers of South
Amherst, Massachusetts,, lately agreed
that q quart Of cotton seed meal Del
day is all that can be safely given to
each COW, and that 1t should Be given
directly after milking.
The Elgin advocate very properly
calls the attention Of farmers to the fac,
that in order 10 get the full benefit OF
feeding whey to hogs, calves, etc., il
must be fed when sweet. After the
sugar has turned to tactic acid, whey is
moro apt to do harm than good. In
other words, It is worse than worth.

There are three kinds of "cow"
butter marketed in this country, grading
as follows: Creamery comes first,
and sells at the highest figure, for the
reason that 1t is the most uniform but

are grades and qualities of this article;
but it is, taking it as a whole, by far
the most evenly satisfactory butyraceous
product ever made. "Dairy' butter
comes next and unquest.onably is
often equal to creamery in quality and
flavor, while an occasional specimen
excels anything else produced in the but.
ter line. But it essentially lacks uni.
formity, and it can not therefore be de-
pended upon. 1t consequently fails to
command the highest prices, although |

thorough work here is to secure the elec'
tion of our congressman. The majority
cannot but he small, but we have an
assured victory, if all Republicans will
stand true to their colors and be present
and vote at the polls. Our candidate has
an able and willy antagonist, but he is moi
superior in ability or character to our own
and there is no reason why he should be
preferred by any Republican. Mr.. Hedges
in private character is unspotted; in educa-
tion, thorough and completes in legal
training and ability, superior; his record
on all political and moral questions, true
to the best interests of society and state.
BY all considerations let us give him our
hearty, unqualified support, and SO help
to swell tue enthusiasm and the vote which
shall presage glorious triumph over our.
adversaries in November. Victory is In
the air. 1t comes from every hilltop and
mountain, from every valley and plain all
over the land. The party never had more
able and worthy leaders, nor wss there
ever more confidence and enthusiasm
Now, LET US show our faith by our works
and give our ticket such an overwhelming
majority as its splendid achievements in
tehalt of civil liberty and equal rights
demands, and the past history of the grand
Republican party will be fittingly crowned
with glory and honor.

deeds arouse the enthusiasm of the lads,
but there is no Democrat among them.
The horror and sufferings of the slaves are
told; the maddened blood that mounts
the boys cheeks is not Democratic blood.
The curse of slavery has pursued the
Democratic party, and bounded it to death
Therefore, let 1t die; and no lip will be
found to say prayer over the grass on
its grave
The late defeat need not be attributed
to any other causes. Other causes were
at work, but they were only incidental.
The tariff was one. Sectionalism was q
second. "Let well enough alone" was a
third. The October failure in Indiana was
fourth. But all these were trivial, and
together could not have accomplished the
result. The result was accomplished be
cause the youths of the Republic are not
Democratic. That party Is therefore
without future and without hope. The
malediction of the war has palsied its
brain. The curse of slavery has poisoned
Its blood and rotted its home. Let 1t die

Hints on Butter Making,

Mr.. A. Baxter, a Minnesota dairy
man, talks about churns, cream, and
butter-making thusly:
Any churn, Of whatever shape ur
style with no inside fixtures, il Il bui
evenly agitateS the cream is all right,
and a churn of any other kind is all
wrong.
As TO the temperature Of cream at
time of churning-each dairyman must
experiment with his own cream and
thermometer. We have found that the
cheap ones vary from two to six de.
grees, hence can advise only in a gen.
eral way, as the weather, time of year,
length Of time cows have been MIXED,
all create necessary changes in the
temperature. We would say churi the
cream at sixty degrees in summer, and
sixty-four degrees in winter. We
always aim to so temper the cream
that it will require no more than
thirty minutes nor less than TWEEN.

The Weight OF Milk and Cream.

At the London Health Exhibition ttev
call skinned milk separated milk.
To be sure this is anything but stale
milk. The cream begins to separste
before the new milk grows cold. It's
put into a revolving machine that is
said to 60 round seven thousand tines
in a minute, and by the application of
centrifugal force the cream, being
lighter, flies to the top, collects in a
kind of cup, which is poured of intoa
separate pail New milk, freed from
its cream while yet perfectly fresh, is a
very different article from the thin and
rapidly souring fluid that has ''stood''
in pans for the cream to rise. The
weight Of milk is another point that
offers some neat tests for scrutiny. The
average weight Of milk Is set down AZ
from 1,026 to 1,035 compared with the
same bulk Of water at 1000. Watered
milk is therefore lighter, but milk that
is rich In cream is also light In compar.
ison, because cream is lighter than
milk. ''The specific gravity and the
cream" says correspondent at the
Health Exhibition, "have TO be taken
into account together. The proportion
Of cream again is measured by very
fine tests. The cream should be from
6-100 to 1l-100; 1t Is generally about
8-100; In the milk Of Alderney COWS Il
will reach 30-100 to 40-10O."-M y
