True Economy.

"a penny saved is a penny galu-
ed Poor Richard tells us, but the
true art in saving money Is not III a
tight grip. In fact, the grip may
be so tight as To work IA loss rather
than a gain. The man who Is too
mean to buy the tools necessary to
do the work most economically and
timely is losing money every day
that he boards mis- dollars, and pegs
away with miserable old pillow, or
has his hired man following a team
that cannot do good half-daVs
work i'll a long day There are
many farmers who are too cautious
about investing in improved imple'
ments. This extreme caution
comes largely from want OF infor-
nation as to what islthe best imple-
ment to buy. This, perhaps, is a
shade better than being too stlngy
But the cure for both is increased
intelligence Let such mel put Ill
some of their loating hours invest
eating the merits OF the various
makes breaking plows, or cuitlVa'
tors. Let them think about the
wants OF their farms, the nature OF
/ the soil and crops, and then really
set to work to find the implement
which will do their work the best,
They will find a great variety OF
implements all having some merit
or fault peculiar to that make. An
honest inquiry into the merits and
dement's of any of these tools Will
quicken the wits and the work OF
the next year will be better under
stood. 1t will not be long before
such men will see that they can
Iealy save money by spending some
wisely. Winter is a good time to
look over the tools, to see what to
have put i'll order and what to dis.
card. There is some tool OF the
farm that can be disposed of for a
better one to great advantage.

DO not neglect to plant few
acres of ground with some croI
that will be available during the
summer when pasturage is likely t.
be cut short b, drought. There are
various crops that can be grown fol
this purpose: oats, sowed corn, sor
ghuln, oats and peas, millet and
others.
Experience teaches that the
earlier in an animals age full feed
ing is resorted to to the better it is
both for its vigorous health and
rapid grouth. Thus will the best
returus be secured whether the
animal is intended for early sale or
for raising.
Work horses need substantial
fare and the less grass the better.
Take care that the COWS or sheep do
not break through nto rank clover,
for they will eat enough in an hour
sometimes to give them bloat or
hoove, malady often quickly fatal.
Keep the pigs in the orchad if pos
sible.
Some very good shepherds, in
deed most keepers of stud tlocks,
give their sheep little hay all sum-
mer. 1t is only "a little, and that
of very sweet hay. A still smaller
number give lambs and choice rams
a daily ration OF grain, generally
consisting of wheat, bran and oats
mixed in about equal portions.

Eggs for Setting.

Eggs for Matching should be
as fresh as possible. If laid
the very same day, so much the
better. This is not always possible
with small tlocks, yet if numer-
Gus and healthy brood is all that is
wanted the most recent eggs should
be selected.
Eggs may be kept for this pur-
pose by placing them on their
points in box in a cool, dry place.
The temperature should be
about 90 or 10 deg. The bottom
of the box should be covered with a
layer OF wheat bran, then a layer
OF of eggs put in and covered with
the bran, and so on alternating.
BY this method evaporation is pre-
vented, and the eggs are almost as
certain to hatch out at the end OF
six weeks as when they were laid.
Thick -shelled eggs, like those OF
geese, Guinea fowls, etc, will retain
life longer than thin-shelled ones,
as these of hens and ducks. When
choice eggs are expected to be
laid, il is more prudent to have the
hen which is to sit upon them wait
for them than to keep other eggs
waiting for her a good sitter may
be amused for two or three weeks
with d few added eggs, and so b'
ready to take charge of those o
value Immediately upon their arr
val, thus setting the eggs fresh.
AS to the choice of eggs TO
Matching, such should be taken, 0
course, as are believed to have beel
rendered productive. Those of me
dium size. that is; the average siz
that the hen lays are most apt t.
fulfil requirements. Judging o
eggs from their specific gravity
, those should be rejected which sinl

water.
: There are no known means of tie
termining beforehand the sex OF thu
fowl, except perhaps that cock
may be more likely to issue from
large eggs and hens from smal
ones. As, however, the egg o
each hen may be recognized, thu
means are accessible OF propagat
ing those parents whose race it il
} Judged most desirable to continue.

Butter Factories.

Are carried on Ill lIcldnu hli'i'l
three distinct systems. Those OF
the first class, for which milk is
furnished from the farmers to be
made into butter, are called milk
factories; those to which the tar
mers send cream, retaining the
skinned or separated milk, are
known as creameries and those OF
the third class, which finish off but
ter churned by farmers separately
are termed butter factories for the
sake of distinction, though all are
in reality butter factories. The
creamery system is preferred for
various reasons, the chief of which
are that the skinned milk is more
valuable Oh the farm for pigs and
calves than for sale from factory,
and that while milk has to be sent
to the factory twice daily, cream
needs only to be sent every second
day; and as to the comparison OF
creameries with butter factories OF
the third class, the former are pre-,
ferred, because it is easier to make
good butter by doing the churning
as well as the finishing than by do
ing the latter only. Under the
creamery system, as it prevails in
three large creameries i'll Ireland,
every farmers cream is churned
separately, and he is paid in accord
ance with the quantity and quality
of the butter produced, while the
person who brings the cream takes
away the buttermik. Thus each
farmer gets fair value for his pro-
duce, an adjustment not nearly Sc
easy where milk is sent instead OF
cream.-Fdiry WOrld.

AN intimate friend Of General Miles IS quoted as snying that the new com mander will enieayor 10 crowd the Apaches to that extent shat they must finally succumb; that he will furnish his cavalrymeu with three mounts each and keep tlem SoIng early and late; that there will toe lo;s Of dead cavalry horses and the cayalrymen will suffer, but there will also be come dead Indians. Some lrrcsgou person has evidently been imposing upon the cEedulous reporter gho first made ;his language pubiIc through the press. General Miles is ID iii Ger ot too much dIsc.ction and eX- 9rfie1ce to plan 8 cs-psIsn before Le mas become acquainted WIlh the condi loa of affair, or Las cyen set Eis foot within the lm.ts ot his utg fed, and then to give the world a full knowledge of bis plans. General Niles IS very cautious and car,iul coI8naDder. and usually keeps h;s own counsel so far as h!s scnve military movements are cor cerned. Re creates hls opportunities with the utmost circumspecton aud snd care, and when the time for the de- cisive blow cones be strikes with ter rife force, and lets the world know abou; it afterwards. The twaddle ss- csibed to the General IS unworthy Of crtdsnce.
