COOLING MILK FOR CITY USE.

A subscriber asks how he shall
best handle milk that is to be. sent
daily to the city for selling in fresh
state. In answer we advise that the
milk be cooled as quickly as possible,
to say IS degrees. Very low cooling
hastens the rising of the cream, which
is to be avoided. The stable must be
sweet and clean, and the milking be
conducted without fouling the cream.
While cooling keep the milk in pure
atmosphere and with access of air, that
is, with the covers of the cans off.
Thereafter, until delivered on the cars,
to be turned over to the city milkmen,
it should remain at the temperature
stated, and those who deliver the milk
to customers should use a dipper in
removing from the transportation cans
to those for delivering, since this stir
ring from top to bottom intimately
mixes the milk and prevents creaming

JUNE GRASS SOD.

The puzzle for many farmers every
spring is what they shall do with fields
filled with June grass, and that need
blowing and re-seeding with clover
and the cultivated grasses. The
trouble with such farmers is that too
large part of their rotation is in
grass. Clover will not generally last
more than two years, and alsike is
worthless after one hay crop has been
cut. If there is timothy in the field
it will fill the soil one year more.
After this the June grass begins to
creep in, and living on the dead roots
of clover and timothy that have pre-
ceded it, the growth of June grass is
generally large. Run the plow through
It, and it's growth of roots under
ground strongly resembles that Of
quack, to which indeed it is an own
cousin.
If the farmer wants to pasture the
field the June grass is all right. But
if he wants it for anything else he
must make stubborn fight for pos
session. When he turns the sod over
the grass is apparently little discon-

SUGGESTIONS AS TO GRASSES
. FOR LIGHT AND HEAVY
III rs 4,- SOILS. ,8rug1 so

To secure 9 good crop of grass it is
not all that tile soil must be rich and
capable Of supporting the crop for
several years, but the conditions neces-
sary for each particular variety of
grass must be considered. Of the
grasses for heavy soils may be men
toned perennial rye grass, tall meadow
.oat grass, italian rye grass, tall fescue,
meadow foxtail and Kentucky blue
grass. For sandy Tor, rather, sandy
loam) soils, the crusted dogtail, orch
ard grass, red top, roughstalked
meadow, fowl meadow and hard fescue
are preferable. Next, it must be OBJ
served if the land intended for grass
is dry or damp, and again the grasses
may be separated, according to moist
ure required, in order to adapt them
to proper conditions. For damp soils,
Italian rye grass, rough-stalked
meadow grass, tall fescue, red fescue,
fowl meadow, meadow foxtail, and
meadow fescue are best suited. Some
grasses will thrive on both damp and
dry soils, such as perennial rye grass,
tall meadow oat grass, crested dogtail,
orchard grass, red top, red fescue, and
Kentucky blue grass. For dry soils
may be mentioned the red fescue and
hard fescue. The grasses that are not
injured by severe cold in winter are
perennial rye grass, tall meadow oat
grass, crested dogstail, red top, tall
fescue, red fescue, fowl meadow, hard
fescue, and meadow foxtail. Some
kinds require more seed than others,
and there is difference in the height
of the various kinds. The time of
sowing is also important, but much
depends on the climate. Where the
seasons are long and the summer has
been dry the land may be made ready
during that time, and the seed sown
thickly in the fall, or as soon as the
fall rains begin. This gives the young
plants chance to grow and become
rooted before winter, and if there be
any bald spots in the spring the vacan-
cies may be re-seeded. It is important
to make the seed-bed fine for grass
and brush the seed in. This is not
usually done, but it will save seed and
secure better "catch" on the land.
If sown in the spring the ground
should first be plowed In the fall and
cross-plowed in the spring, narrowing

BUTTER MAKING TRIALS IN
ENGLAND.

The Bath and West of England So
ciety, one of the aristocratic as it is
one of the oldest in the Kingdom, in
it's last journal gives prominence in the
report to the trials of the various dairy
systems.
Seven different systems of cream
extracting and butter-making were in
this competition-namely the Jersey
creamer, the Devonshire system of
scalded cream, the Cooley system, the
hand-power separator, the steam power
separator, the shallow pan setting, and
the Swartz method. Sixteen gallons
of milk were allowed to each competi-
tor; and the Devonshire plan was
found to give the. greatest weight of
butter five pounds eight and one half
ounees), while the quality Of the but
ter was very good. The hand cream
separator was next as to yield of but
ter five pounds five and three-fourth
ouncesl and the quality was good; but
the Jersey creamers, though yielding
only four pounds six and one-haf
ounces of butter, gave the highest
quality of produce.

SHARON F. A., No. 800, May %, 'Ss.
Mr.. EDITOR. Ssr:-I wish to
ask your opinion in regard to the pres
ent law of punishment for theft. AS
the law now stands what does it profit
a man if he has a horse or mule
stolen, to pursue and catch the thief
and bring him to justice? None
whatever. [ had fine young mule
stolen about the year 1874 or 1875
that cost me $l40, the only animal
l had. 1t cost me, in hunting that
mule and the striking off of hand
bills, SIS. So you see am out now
1855. In about thirteen months
after he was stolen, 1 got ON the track
of and succeeded in bringing him to
Justice, but failed to get my mule.
The negro was tried before Judge
Schenck AMI was given ten years in
the State Penitentiary, but only served
one year and got away. Did all this
filibustering around the court house
put single red cent in my pocket by
which I might get another mule No,
sir. But I presume the Judge and
the lawyers and sheriff all got pay for
what they did.
Now, Mr.. Editor, l am no lawyer,
but is there any reason why thief
could not be hired out by the day or
by the month until he pays the man
full value for what he has stolen and
the expenses of his trial 2 1t seems
to me, sir, that such law might be
made to take the place of the one we
have, thereby making good the loss to
the loser. Yours, &C.,
A SMALL FARMER.
The progressive farmer. [volume] (Winston, N.C.) 1886-1904, 1888-06-12

certed. Most farmers think all the
pasture they can get off field before
plowing is SO much clear gain. 1t is
bad enough with clover or timothy to
feed off what is worth more as green
manure, but it is far worse with June
grass. All the moisture in the leaves
help to rot the plant rapidly, and the
heat from this fermentation will ex-
tend the decay to the roots. It is bet
ter on this account to delay plowing
June grass until the grass has leaf
big enough to make good bite. Then
select wet time, while the soil is full
of moisture, turn not very deeply, but
with jointer attachment, so as to
divide the sod and lap it on itself.
This will throw q stratum of soil toler-
ably free from roots to the surface,
4and in this a good seed bed can be
made. '.s
A common mistake in blowing June
grass is to bring up more subsoil than
can be used to advantage. For corn,
not an inch of soil should be brought
up below the roots of the grass, which
will generally be limited to the area
rich in vegetable matter. True, this
subsoil, cold and inert as it is, will
keep down the grass, but it will also
keep down everything else. The only
time when subsoil should ever be
turned up is late in the fall, when it
can lie naked through the winter, and
be mellowed by frost. Atthat time
decomposition in the soil goes on
slowly, and it needs considerable
amount of soil over June-grass sod
to keep it from coming through when
Spring opens. But even on fall l-plowed
land it is not advisable to bring much
subsoil to the surface where the sue
ceeding crop is to be corn. If plowed
in late spring or early summer,
thorough turning ofsShe sod to shall
low depth will root it more quickly
than will deeper plowing.

LET THE LINE REMAIN WHERE
1T NOW IS.
WH1TAKER's, N. c., May l, 'SS.

WHITAKER's, n. c., May l, 'SS.
Mr.. EDITOR Some one writ
ing in your paper says "that some
thinking gentlemen are OF the opinion
that a more liberal construction of our
Constitution might work to the advan-
tage of the Alliance. That is, allow
professional men, lawyers and mer-
chants who do not rely solely on their
profession, but are farmers too, to be
admitted" This is written to state
that the line must be drawn some
where, and it is much more distinct
where it is than to draw it across men
who are three-fourths lawyers and
middlemen and one-fourth farmer.
The President is right in his decision
of the matter, and the Constitution is
right, and we trust that neither our
State or National Alliance will inter
fere with it. Open the door little
for this cause and see who will come
in. Possibly half the lawyers, bank
ers, railroads, middlemen and monopo-
lists in the State have some farm in
terest, but let there be conflict of
interest, and where would their inf1u-
ence go? Let there be clamor for
laws in the interest of the masses, who
are the farmers They answer, Oh,
It's unconstitutional, it's illegal. Such
an idea will never do. Let there be a
demand for lower rates of interest,

down fine before putting in the seed.
The clovers should not be overlooked.
For pasture the white clover may be
advantageously used. For a grass
crop to be moved, and the ground
used for corn after the soil is turned
under, red clover has no equal. On
light soils it may be seeded in the fall,
and on heavy soils in the spring, on
grain land Cotton Plant.
