Photography as a Detective.

Photography is gaining prominence
in the criminal courts. With its help
Berlin merchant was lately convicted
of crooked ways in keeping his ac-
counts. The slightest differences in
color and shade of inks are made man
ifest in the Photographic copy. Blue
inks appear nearly white; brown inks,
on the contrary, almost black. The
books of the accused were submitted
to a photographer, who took off the
pages concerned and brought into
court the most undoubted ocular proofs
OF the illegitimate after-entry of some of
the accounts. A subsequent chemical
test substantiated this evidence. The
Photographic is to be preferred to the
chemical test, because it brings its
proofs into the courts and submits
them to inspection, at the same time
leaving the document under inspection
unframed; while the results of a
chemical test must be taken on the
evidence of the chemist alone, and the
writing examined is perhaps destroy
ed. In another case similar to the
above changing the date of note by
an insignificant erasure and addition
was proved by means of photography

German Military Drill.

In Germany youths are, as it were,
taken bodily out OF the way of tempta-
ton at the most dangerous period of
their lives and sequestered from the
world for nearly three years, during
which their muscles are developed and
their intelligence is supplied with the
means of development. They are
taught to practice an absolute and
blind obedience; they are fed whole
somely and sufficiently, but in such
sort as to render them comparatively
Indifferent to good cheer; they are
made to work harder than they would
have had to labor at any calling what
soever in private life; their morals are
looked after with extreme strictness,
and when they have completed their
term of service they are dismissed to
their respective civil avocations as a
rule in high health, bodily and mental,
well set-up. hard and tough, sound in
wind and limb, with habits of order,
sobriety and economy, and in every
respect better men than they would
have been had they spent the three
years in question at the pillow, the
forge, or the desk. Beatty KING stoas,s

MODERN DAiRYlNG.
The Old-Fashioned Dash Churn and the
Cooperation Factory of To-day.

The Old Fashioned Dash Churn and the
Cooperation Factory of To-day.
We like to illustrate old-fashioned,
homelike scenes Sometimes we take
an illustration to show the wrong side.
Such is the case here in dairying. The
man Of the house, probably odorous OF
the stable, as he is of the pipe, daw-
ding over his work; the cat licking at
the pail; the youngster surreptitiously
drinking out of pan of milk, the cob
webs ornamenting the ceiling, and the
good wife YEARLY working away at the
old-fashioned churn. All these bring
back "reminiscences of the old milk eel
lar, pleasant if clean, but by this pict-
ure, how horrible!
But modern processes have modern
lied dairy labors. Ice and cold-water
setting have done away with the old
fashioned cellar combination, and has
enabled the farmers wife to have
perfect cleanliness, if she will, in small
compass. And as good butter may
be made from herd of five or ten
COWS as from one larger, If only the
quality of cleanliness and GOODNESS is
kept constantly in mind.
But nowadays cooperative dairy
ing is coming to the front. The farmer
with five or twenty-five COWS has only
to furnish the milk to the factory, and
all the fixtures being of the first-class,
the product of course commands the
highest market price.
These cooperative diaries are largely
being extended in the New England
States. They have gained a strong
foothold in some portions OF the West.
The stockholders are the patrons, as
distinguished from factories, where
the milk or cream is simply
sold to the factories for SO
much money. Every man Or woman
is not only interested in having the
milk pure and of high quality, but in
terested in knowing that of their
neighboring stockholders do the same.
There is no cobwebby milk room, no
Understanding pipes and no weary
housewife doing tread-mill service
with the hands over the old barrel,
dash-churn.
The old-fashioned dash-churn makes
as good butter as the best, but it is
weary work. Science has done fully
as much for the dairy as it has in any
other department of agriculture. AS
good butter may be made in clean,
well-ventilated cellar as any where
else, in a common way, but there is
too much hard work over the old way.
The world moves, and dairying has
moved with it. It is, like the old
oaken bucket, poetical, but fast be-
coming a thing of the past.-Prairte
Farmer
