Making Folks " BehaVe.O

The principles of our American free
dom have been held to forbid any
forcible efforts to induce men or women
TO be industrious. Every neighbor-
hood, nearly, has its lazy or shiftless
inhabitants, whose course of life is
such that they inevitably tend to become
a burden, if not nuisance, to the COM
munity Yet they are /" let alone" be-
cause our easy-going ways, and con-
firmed tolerance of all but the grossest
evils, will not allow us to interfere
with our neighbors." 1t has generally
been supposed that it is even worse, in
this respect, in the South than in New
England, but a recent communication
to the Springfield (Mass) Union con-
tains the following singular statement:
The people of Rising Sun, Texas,
have formed themselves into a sort OF
anti-poverty society and are determined
to make everybody in their vicinity
work and work properly. Recently q

Variation in Cream.

In an editorial notice of Clinton
creamery in the Farmer of November
1, we are given to understand that
there is no variation in cream from
different herds of cows. Allow me to
say that experience at the Winthrop
creamery proves this idea to be errone-
operating the Winthrop creamery for
considerable time, many of the patrons
became dissatisfied with the amount of
butter credited to the inch of cream.
And to test the question of variation of
cream from different herds, the mana
gers of the creamery had one days
cream from thirteen herds brought in
separately and churned. The result
was that the cream varied from S2-1O0
inches to 76-100 inches to the pound
of butter; only two lots of cream out
of the thirteen produced the same
amount of butter to the inch. On in
vestigation, the following may be
assigned as the causes of this wide va
ration, viz: The different temperature
at which the cream was raised; the
condition, feed and care of cows. 1t is
well-established fact that cream
raised at low temperature will not
produce as much butter to the inch as
that raised at a higher temperature, all
other conditions being equal. In this
trial, without an exception, the herds
that were in the best condition and
were the best fed and cared for were
the ones that produced the most butter
to the inch of cream. And l may here
say that the herd from which 76-100
inches were required to make one
pound of butter were thin in flesh and
fed upon swale hay. The quality of
this butter also varied quite as much as
the quantity, and was in favor of cows
in good condition and good feed. These
facts should teach every owner of
cow a useful lesson. The cream of
each patron of the Winthrop creamery
is tested as often as once month; and,
though the variation may not be as
great in summer as in winter, still
there is variation enough to make it an
object to continue the tests.-N. r..

Cultivating the Blueberry.

All plants of the heath family, to
which the huckleberry and BURBERRY,
Gas we'll as the cranberry and checker
berry, belong, are rather difficult to
manage in cultivation, until their pecu-
liarities are understood; but there is no
difficulty in improving and making
much more profitable the natural growth
of this valuable fruit, of which great
quantities are sold at good prices every
year. Many farms in Vermont have
patches of cleared land overrun with
blueberries, and we are pleased to be
able to lay before them the experience
of one cultivator which we find re-
ported in one of our exchanges. He
says: Having an old bush pasture
thickly matted with the ow-bush berry,
we trimmed out everything else and
burned it over. The sprouts started up
again thickly, but of course there was
no fruit till the second year. We found
it necessary to trim up again in the fall,
and have continued to cut out every
bush except low-bush BURBERRY every
fall since. The expense of this work
has been about So per acre. We found
it best to burn every third or fourth
year, and as this made barren year
we divided our ten-acre lot into two
sections and alternate the burning.
The work has produced immense ber-
ries. l have frequently laid one on my
thumb-nail which was large enough to
cover it. Last season we sold in the
Quincy market, Boston, 2,799 quarts
for S577.17, or an average of trihe
over twenty cents per quart"

might possibly do, if New England
farmers had no competitors in the New
England markets. But having, as we
do, the Great West to compete with,
and the disadvantages of our small and
uneven farms, ill-ftted for machinery,
our farmers can not stand the discounts
from the value Of his crops which are
required by the country merchants
profits, and the commissions and profits
of other dealers which stand between
him and the consumer. The only adj
vantage possible to the Yankee small
farmer over his western competitors is
the advantage Of dealing directly Nth
the consumer; and by this only can he
make living profit on what he pro-
duces. This chance is cut off by the
high rates on small lots of freight,
which prevents all direct dealing be-
tween producer and consumer of all
farm products except butter, cheese,
and few other small items that will
stand express rates. What the small
farmer of New England wants is
cheap system of transportation, some
what like the express, but done in
freight cars, and freight rather than ex-
press time. 1t would seem that some
thing like this might be devised, and
be profitable both to the people and the
roads. Unless il is done, it is utterly
useless to try in any other way to keep
our farmers from emigrating. They
are starved out of the country by de-
NAL of the only profitable market open
to them. This is the whole story. Our
new immigration commissioner will
find this is the real trouble he will en-
counter in trying to induce our people
to stop selling off and leaving the state.
Induce them to stay by giving them a
market, and the population of the state
will increase fast enough.

Practical Points.

Book learning was once treated with
scorn by the majority of farmers, but
times have changed and practical edu-
cation mixed with common sense is
now a necessity in successful farming.
In selecting family cow, especially
when the milk is to be used by chill
dren, make sure that the COW is the
mother of a healthy and thrifty calf.
There is no better evidence than this
of the good quality of the milk and the
good health of the COW.
THERE is probably no subject which
so many people think they understand
as that of feeding live stock. Any
farmers boy can tell about it; and yet
probably no one thing connected with
the whole round of farming operations
is really so poorly understood and car
ried out with so little skill.
Do not be tempted to grow two
plants on the space that should only
be occupied by one. An extra I'M
desirable plant becomes weed, and
when the two are of the same kind
they iniure each other more than if of
different species, as they demand the
same food from the soil and must strug-
gle with each other.
A FARMER can live happier in his
old house out of debt, than he can in a
new, fine one with mortgage on it.
A family can worship more devoutly
going to church in farm wagon, when
they are not afraid of any creditor
meeting them, than to go in a fine car
riage with a chattel mortgage on the
horses, subject to be foreclosed at any
time

How Are the Cows Doing ?.-.DOes
Heavy Feeding Pay?

What do our brother farmers think
in regard to heavy feed for the cows?
Some of my neighbors feed from three
to four or five quarts of meal and the
same amount of bran per day to each
COW with good result as to milk and
butter, but have noticed that cows
fed this way are soon spoiled. When
they are eight years old they are good
only for beef, while COW with less
feed is good mixer at ten, eleven and
even twelve years. The question thus
arises, Does the one realize enough
more butter, etc., to pay for the prema-
ture deterioration of a good cow?
During the month of October, from the
LIST to the 31st, my thirteen cows pro-
duced four hundred fifty-two pounds of
butter. These cows are all young
four two years old, five three years and
the others older. They are fed each
with four quarts Of mixed bran and
meal day. YoUNGsTER.

We shall be very glad to have the
question above suggested discussed by
our readers who have had experience
either way. 1t is an important one.-

The Matter of Churning.

That butter is not all butter, and
churning is something of a science,
was well Illustrated recently at butter
school where there was six scholars
A quantity of cream was taken, we'll
mixed and divided into six patches
the students each taking his allowance
and using the same kind and size of
churn that all the rest did. Each
churned as he saw fit-that is, accord
ing to the development each had in the
business. AT the close a chemist an
alyzed each sample for ascertaining
the elements of the butter. The water
left in after working varied from 12.0S
to 10 per cent; the facts were quite
uniform, varying only about 2.10; but
in caseine the least amount was 80, so
on up to 2.10. On a scale of so points
as perfection, No. scored ~ points,
and the others varied down to seven
teen points. The principal failure on
the part of the student whose butter
scored only II points was in not
churning so as to abstract the butter
milk that contained the caseine. He
left in 2.10 per cent. By reference to
the facts noted for each at every mo-
ton and stage of churning, it was
found that said student failed to stop
the churn at the exact right time to
secure perfect washing, when in best
granular condition for securing that
end. The result was, he could not
wash out the caseine, and as to work
ing it out the process rather works it
in. This is valuable lesson. and in
dlcates that skill in butter-making
means more than pounding out the
butter with a club. 1t needs to have
brains mixed with cream at every stage
of the process. -Hoard'S Dairyman.

DECLARED INVALID.
A Portion of the Iowa Liquor Law
Is Invalid.

WASHINGTON, March ia decision.
was rendered by the supreme court in
the case of Bowman Bros. VS.. the Chi
cago & Northwestern Railroad company
which involves the validity of a statute
of Iowa forbidding railroad company
to bring intoxicating liquor into that
state unless such company has been fur
nished with certificate from the county
auditor of the county to which
the liquor is to be transported. show
ing that the consignee is legally
authorized to sell it. The court
holds that the power to regulate OF for
bid the sale of a commidity after it has
been brought into state does not carry
with it the right and power to prevent
it's introduction by transportation from
another state. The section of the Iowa
statute of April 5, 1886, which prohibits
railroad companies from bringing liquor
into the state is therefore declared to be
invalid and the judgment of the United
States circuit court for the Northern
District OF Illinois is reversed. The
chief justice, Justices Gray and Harlan
diSSented.
