to complain occasionally about the tyr
snny Of puffed-up major generals. Sher-
man is a warrior aud he beIives in the

doesn't like newspapers because they do
not respect tie right of general TO do

one good thing about Sherman. He is
liable to forget to-day the letter he wrote
last year, and he will probably swear to-

se.en Points in REilk-setting.

1. To make the finest flaw
ored and longest keeping butter the
cream must undergo a rlpening pro-
cess by exposure to the oxygen of the
air while it is rising The rIpening is
very tardy when the temperature is
low.
2. After cream becomes sour, the
more ripening the more it depreciates.
Tho sooner it is then skinned and
churned the better, but it should not
be churned while too new. The best
time for skimming and churning, is
just before acidity becomes appar.
ent.
3. Cream makes better butter to
rise in cold air than to rise in cold
water, but it will rise sooner in cold
water, ask the milk will keep sweet
longer.
4. The deeper milk is set the less
airing the cream gets while it is ris-
ing.
5, The depth of setting should vary
with the temperature; the lower it is
the deeper milk may be set; the high
er, the shallower it should be. Milk
should never be set shallow in low
temperature nor deep in a high one.
Setting deep in cold water economies
time, labor and space.
6. While milk is standing for cream
to rise, the purity OF the cream, and
consequently the fine Favor and
keeping of the butter, will be injured
if the surface of the cream is exposed
freely to air much warmer than the
cream.
z. When cream is colder than the
surrounding air it takes up moisture
and impurities from the air. When
the air is colder than the cream il
takes up moisture and whatever es-
capes from the cream. In the former
case the cream purifies the surround
ing air; in the latter case, the air
helps to purify the cream. The Sc
lection of a creamer should hinge on
what is most desired-higbest quality

when TO Sell Hens.
American Agriculture,

To those who desire the best pos
sible profit of poultry, it is question
of no little importance: sat what age
shonld the hens be soldG" may, in
deed, ship both poultry and eggs to
the city, but the costs on small lots
would eat up all the profits over and
above that which / would receive from
MY country merchants. In my own
neighborhood, spring chickens hatch
ed in April, and of large, brolling
size. are worth twenty cents piece.
This is but little If any more than the
actual cost TO the raiser Ii kept, the
pullets at six menths of age will begin
10 lay. This is some weeks before
Christmas, at a time when eggs bring
their best price. Between their starr,
and the time when hens are in demand
for market in the spring, these pullets
if well fed and cared for, will lay 100
or eight dozen eggs. These are the
usual price here in the winter, namely,
25 cents per dozen, are worth 81. A
good Braham pullet or any of the
larger breeds, may be kept laying all
winter and spring, and still be in good
condition for the table. AT this time
hen will sell for 80 cents, and this
will pay for the feed the hen will CON
sumo up to that age, apart from what
she will pick up in forsglng around,
if allowed free run upon the farm.
There will then be clear profit Of 81
on each hen at one year old, and this
is more than can be reasonably ex-
pected at any other period of hens
existence. After this the expenses on
a hen increase, to say nothing OF the
risk, and the profits diminished.
1t is clear, then, that it pays better
to sell a one-yesr-old, after getting one
winters laying, rather than to keep
hens to a greater age, or to sell them
as broilers. Young and vigorous
hens produce the largest numer of
eggs Do not keep old fowls, or in
deed, old stock of any kind. OF
course, a number, say one or two
dozen hens, On each farm, must be
kept TO an older age for breeding pur-
poses, but the stock poultry and the
laying hens should always be kept
separate il possible. The breeders
and layers require different treat
ment. Every spring full quota OF
layers must be raised for the next

a recognized fact, and as fast as we
can raise good grade draft horses our
progressive farmers will have them on
thefarm even if the city buyers do
offer such high prices FOR them. A
draft horse is as profitable on the
farm as IN the city, as is shown by the
South:
Zone of the severest losses sustained
through the entire cotton belt in
every department where animal mo-
tive power is used is from defective or
light teams. 1t is almost beyond
computation the loss thus sustained.
Every team must have It's driver, and
If the team can only do half work it
of necessity reduces the product of the
drivers labor one-half. In thing the
soil the loss is still greater, as not
only is the amount of blowing one
half less, but it is so shallow and de-
fective that the land produces only
half crop and that of an inferior
quality. The draft.horse industry
from this standpoint assumes vast
proportions. and is vitality connected
with successful farming and every
transportation industry. No one
thing could add so largely to the in
come in the cotton states as heavier
farm and transportation stock. This
alone would make all the difference
between failure and success. This
alone would secure us profit that in
a few years would give US independ-
ence and wealth. We are glad TO note
progress in this direction, and such
progress will be permanent and profit
able. If the farmers in every county
would club together and purchase a
first class French draft-horse stallion.
a few years would witness a wonder
full change in the horse stock of the
county, and would pay better than
any investment on the same amount.
Changers or the Farmers Alliance
could cooperate in such an enterprise
and make it profitable to all con-
cerned.n

BREAD MUST BE WHITE.

StaG of HOW Good Bread msli-

There are fashions in bread, and
bakers pauder to them. These fash
ions do not take the form OF addition
al nutriment or hygienic regulation.
On the contrary, their existence
weakens the wholesome principles Of
bread and sacrifices everything sani
tary to outward appearance. Bread
must be white. a housekeeper de-
cllnes to look at q loaf until it be
what she calls milky" A brown
tint, she has been taught to believe,
implies defective bread, and, besides,
its aspect is not pleasing. This re-
lision is carefully instilled into girls,
at the present time. Bakers may
have secret ideas on the subject; in
their inner consciousness they may
recognize the fact that if white bread
be used largely its effects may not be
as healthful as those OF browner bread
but they pander 10 the fashion. and
as long as that fashion supplies them
with ioaves and fishes they are CON
tent to be unscientidc and leave the
hygiene side Of the question alone as
irrelevant and immaterial.

ever, is taking place, and there is no
doubt that in a short time II will as

Cooked Potatoes for Hogs.
National Live Stock journal.


Much of the value of potatoes as
hog food depends upon the cooking.
II fed largely raw they produce scour-
ing aud do not all digest. This is due
to the fact that the potato is composed
so largely Of starch as to make cook
ing an almost indispensable aid to
digestion. A little raw potato is
beneficial to the hogs stomach when
fed largely upon corn. 1t is laxative
and cooling, allaying the feycrish
tendency arising from the heating
effects OF corn. When fed to realize
the most benefit from them for fatten-
ing, they should be boiled soft, and
if grain be fed with them, Ethey
should be cooked together. Potatoes
and corn go well together, the form
er giving bulk and the latter concen-
trsted nutriment. The potatoes have
more value, judiciously fed, as pro
noting health than for nutriment.
Although more nutritious than any
other roots, the potatoe, nevertheless,
is rs per cent water, SO that its nu-
tritive value is far below that OF corn.
IN fact, it takes 383 pounds of pota-
tees to be equivalent in nutriment to
100 pounds of dry corn.
