1T is observed that the skin Or scum
which rises on milk when it is scalded
Is lot cream but casein or cheesy sub
stance. This scum should be taken OF
before the milk is set away for the
cream to rise, or else the cream will
rise up under it and the scum will be-
come Incorporated in the cream and so
pass into the butter, where it will make
white specks and injure it's flavor. This
is Tor those who practice scalding their
milk in the winter season.-1lbanY

A simple and very effective lotion
for preventing the premature loss Of
the hair can be made as follows: Take
three ounces Of pu1verized sage and
turn q pint of cold, soft water over it;
have it in a tin dish with a cover; let it
steep yer the fire ten or fifteen min
utes; strain it off and add a t%easpoonful
of pulver;zed borax and the same guam
tity of salt. Keep in a tight-corked
bottle and apply with a sponge or soft
cloth by rubbing gently all over the
head; then brush lightly. Use it night
and morning. Chicago Inter- Ocean.
The best mixers are not beef-fat,
nor should they be burdened with SUI
pertluous flesh. And yet it is a mis-
take to suppose that their condition is
a matter OF no consequence. To- see a
herd OF cows no more than animated
shadows is an indication of a poor
dalryman. Dairy cows should be well
fed with milk-producing food, with
sufficient t~lesh-forming properties to
maintain a high state Of physical vigor.
1t is hardly the thing to have to lean a
COW against the fence to milk her.

Veal outlets prepared in this way
are palatable: After trimming the cut
lets nicely, dip them in melted butter
and dust them we'll with a mixture of
equal parts of grated Parmesan cheese
and bread crumbs. Then dip them in
beaten egg and dust them again on
both sides with the cheese and crumb
mixture and fry them brown. Boil
half a pound of m%acaroni, and after it
is drained add two ounces of butter and
a cupful of tomato sauce, some grated
Parmesan cheese and salt to taste. Let
this become thoroughly hot, stirring
occasionally. Put in the centre of a
dish and place the outlets around it
