HOW TO RAISE CREAM.
Advantages of the Three Systems Now in
 General Use.

| General Use.
 There is practically very little differ ence in the three ways of separating cream, viz: setting the milk in shallow pans; setting it in deep pails in tanks of cold water, or separating it by the use of the centrifuge. Each method has its advantages under special cir cumstances; and when the special con- veniences prevail then each method IS the best under those circumstances. With careful management one is as good as another. For six years the shallow setting and the deep-pall method were practiced in my dairy. and in all that time with hundreds oi very careful experiments and compar- isons, l could not detect any difference in the results as regards the quality and quantity of the butter made; but there was a very great difference In regard to convenience. In the use of the shallow pans regular temper ature must be maintained, and this re- quires constant supervision, the use of ice in the summer and of heat in the winter.
 Where a running spring is availa- ble and ice can be procured without buying it too dearly, the deep setting system is preferable. The milk is kept in pure air because the running water removes atmospheric impuri- ties, and the milk is not exposed to voluminous currents. The temperature is easily regulated, and the labor of cleansing cans is greatly reduced. One important advantage of deep set ting is the sweet skimmed-milk which Is available for feeding calves or for sale or use in making cheese. All these items have to be considered on either side in comparing the two methods.
 No doubt where 8 sufficient number of COWS are kept to warrant the ex- pense, centrifuge, to be operated by hand or by horsepower, will be found the most convenient and economical. The labor is reduced to minimum; there IS no washing of pans or deep pails; the skinned milk is sweet and fresh for any use, and the cream is fresh and can be subjected to the ripening process to prepare it for churning, in the most satisfactory manner This is a matter of cost against work. The machine will cost three or four times as much as deep- setting apparatus, but 8 much less costly dairy building will be needed. Considering. however, the cost of the machine Cover one hundred dollars) of the smallest size for hand or horse power against the saving of other ap- paratus and labor, it is a matter to be decided if the expense or the work is the more onerous.-Henry StesOart, tn Rural NelD Yorker.

Sunshine in the Poultry Yard.

Sunshine is essential to successful poultry culture. We should ever well come it. No part of our premises should be excluded from it. The glad sunlight should find access to every nook and corner of our poultry house. It should play upon the inner walls and flood the floor and roasting places. The little chickens should not be de- void of it, but every opportunity should be given it to warm and purify their quarters. In the outer yards and runs, the sunshine displays it's virtues by making fresh and sweet places that would otherwise be sources of disease and death to our pets. It dries the polluted soil, and dispels noxious va DOTS. While dampness is to be dreaded, the sunshine comes as messenger of health and happiness.
 We need also to invoke the sunshine of our better natures in order to be successful poultry-breeder. In times of aggravation and disappointment we should rally to our support the sunlight of cheerfulness and hope. There are times when it seems as if our ventures will prove failures and our best efforts come to naught. Misfortune follows misfortune, and success seems s1jo be farther away than ever. But stay; there is silver lining, even to such a dark cloud as this. Some of our chickens have mysteriously disap- peared, some have died and some are small and inferior. But, on the other hand, we have few choice specimens that are thriving. Here is bright spot. We have other eggs setting, and so can try it again. Here is something pleasant to think of and to hope for. Turn on the light. Let the sunshine in. Remember that success is never full and complete, and rejoice that some progress has been made.
 The sunshine of kindness is ever needed in the poultry yard. We all have some fowls that seem to be pos sessed with the spirit of perversity and contrariness. Failing to do as we WOulQ nave 6IlSIu-0Sp6Cldlly SOIlo hens with broods-and doing that which we would not have them do, such fowls are source of worry and annoyance, and are very likely to arouse more or less ill temper. But we should try to bear in mind the dis tinction between man and chicken, and ever treat them kindly. It is the only way to subdue or control them.
 It frequently occurs also that we need the sunshine of charity in our poultry transactions. Charity of mind and of heart. Eggs that we pay a fancy price for sometimes hatch very poorly, and we are disposed to con- demn the party from whom we got them; charity of this kind should he tempered with justice. We would net excuse fraud nor evil intentions; but, where the cause of bad hatch is un- known, or the fault perhaps mutual, we should not be hasty to condemn. better to let in the sunshine and be charitable in our refections.-H. 5.

FRAGMENTS OF SOAP,
How Economical Housekeepers Can Utilize
 Them to Advantage.

Gather together all the pieces of white soap that you may have, castillo and any others that are known to be good. Cut them into small pieces and dissolve in boiling water in the pro- portion of tea-cup of water to half cup of scraps. As soon as the scraps have melted and while the water is still hot stir in ground out-meal to make stiff-batter. Grease some old cups and pour enough of this mixture in for a small cake and set it aside to harden and dry. You have now very nice soap that is excellent for daily use in the nursery; or the mixture may be made just little thinner and kept in tincup to be brought out as soft, white soap at the children's baths. For the boys and girls tri-daily hand scrubbing stir the batter very stiff with oatmeal bran or wheat middlings and mould into fiat cakes. These have roughness that is necessary to remove ink stains, pitch and the many defling substances with which every healthy boy and girl seems to come in contact.
 For fancy hand soap, melt all to- gether the pieces of any colored toilet soaps, provided, of course, that they are good, and do not contain injurious materials; stir in few drops of per fumery and very little Indian meal. Pour this into shallow dishes (fancy- shaped if you wish), and when partly cold stamp on a pattern and mold the corners of the cakes round, or cut into shapes with cake-cutter.
 The scraps of yellow soap may be put into the soap-shaker-a wire re- ceptacle for holding soap that is to be shaken in the dishwater; but for those who have no such implement this is way of disposing of them: Dissolve the pieces as before, using less hot water, and when the mixture has partly cooled stir in quantity Gas much as it will take nicely) of SCOUT ing sand or bath brick scraped fine; pour into wooden box and stir often until cold. This is excellent for SCOUT ing tins and cleaning unpainted shelves and floors, but will, of course, remove the paint from woodwork. Yellow soap may, like the white, be simply dissolved and left to stiffen little to be used as soft soap. p.--Ladtes' Home Journal.

A Successful English Scheme.

A Home of Rest for Horses is 8 successful English scheme. The chief object is to give temporary rest to the horses of cab-drivers and poor traders, who in most cases are obliged to keep their beasts at work until past help, when a timely holiday would restore the poor creatures. Every comfort and convenience is at hand to make life pleasant and easy to the old horses. Summer and winter boxes, large and airy, warm clothes, regular and plcnti- ful meals, an extensive stable-yard for winter exercise, and a splendid grass run is st their disposal, and if any thing ails the ancient almoners the veterinary surgeon of the society comes with his skill to their aid.

 Beans are good feed for the COW. The bean meal is probably the best form. But if the beans are boiled until soft they may be fed with profit. Waste beans on the farm, or damaged stock that can sometimes be bought cheap, should always be fed. Beans are rich in protein or nitrogenous mat ter.
 -Huckleberry Cake: One cupful of sugar, piece of butter the size of an egg; beat together until light; then add two eggs and beat again; two- thirds cup of milk, two cups of four in which have been sifted one-half tea spoonful of cream tartar and one tea spoonful of saleratus.
 Dried Pea Soup: Soak a quart of split peas over night. The next morn- ing add four quarts of water and cook till tender (about three hours). An hour before the soup is done add one pound of salt pork that has been boiled separately an hour, add, according to taste, onion, carrot, turnip, celery, herbs, pepper, etc.
 Mutton is more easily digested than beef, and hence, according to a statement put forth by the American Public Health Association, should be preferred by dyspeptics. It is not, however, as nutritious as beef. Lamb is not nearly so nutritious as mutton, which, when of prime quality and properly cooked, is preferred by epi- cures.
 Those farmers who have or can cheaply collect large quantities of waste vegetable material, can make the job pay pretty well, if they will have patience to perfect themselves in the art, and manage the process with no unnecessary expenditure of labor. Where there is an excess of coarse material, the addition of five or six bushels of unleached ashes to a cord will greatly aid its reduction to fine condition. r. Examiner.

THuRMAN AND PATRIoTIsaI.

THURMAN AND PATRIOTIsM.
In one Of his recent speeches, Mr..
Thurman said:
''Our Republican friends should
take this under serious cOnsidera-
tiOn. They say that they freed the
negro from slavery, but perhaps tlle
1900, 900 Democratic soldiers In the
army would have something to say
about It."
It is evident that Mr.. Thurman's
strong point is not accuracy Of sta
tistics. When he figures up two
million Democratic soldiers in the
army he gets entirely out OF the
reach Of calculation and scars in the
regions Of Imagination, where it Is
not easy TO follow him.
Perhaps he may, however .remem-
Der the soldier vote in 1854, when
the "YOung Napoleon" George b.
Mcclellan, sought TO contest the
presidency with Abraham Lincoln.
Will Mr.. Thurman be kind enough
TO inform an anxious inquirer what
proportion Of that vote was cast for
the Democratic nominee. Does he
think that the figures Of that elec-
tiOn would support his faneiful the
Ory Of there having been two mill
ion Democrats in the army?
Far be Il from us TO impugn the
patriotism OF any Democrat who
was In the Federal army during the
war Of the rebellion; but we mag be
assured that they were not Demo
Gratis Of the Thurman or Voorhees, or
Vallandingham stripe, who declared
the war a failure, and it may be
shrewdly suspected that a great
many who went in Democrats came
out Republicans.
One moment more, before closing
these remarks. We see, on closel
inspection, that Mr.. Thurman did
not say which army. That makes
Il all clear. He takes the few wal
Democrats i'm the Union army, anC
atids them to the whole Confederate
army, horse, foot, dragons anC
bushwhackers and so makes up hii
two million Democratic soldiers
On that basis we are not prepared
TO question his figures.
