Note Of Explanation.

John Bernard, in his "Retrospec-
tions of America" relates a good
story of DR.. Franklin, whom he de-
clares to have had few equals as a
philanthropist; 'for which he wrote
to prevent misery, by checking error,
he lived to afford a practical com
mentary on his works" Charles
Lamb thought it worth while to
lend books to Coleridge, who was
sure to return them enriched with
annotations, TRIPPING their value;"
but most of our readers would pre-
ter Franklin's foot-notes even to
those of rs. T. c." himself.
Riding out one day, Franklin
passed farmer sitting listlessly by
the roadside, his chin on his hand,
and his elbow on his knee. Taking
this for a fit of laziness, Franklin
drew rein to expostulate, but the
first glance at the mans face excited
his plying interest. Inquiring
brought out a sad story of failures
in regard to land, implements, and
livestock. The details convinced
the doctor of the mans industry, but
seemed to throw doubt on his in
telligence.
"Have you read any Of my books,
my friend?" said he. l am DR..
Franklin"
At this name the man looked np
eagerly. but the next moment re-
lapsed into his former apathy, as if
completely heart-broken.
"Oh yes, DOCTOR" he replied, give
read your almanacs-I've worked by
'em and slept upon 'em-I and my
wife and all my boys. But l don't
see the good of it; none of your say
ings have come true"
"No?" exclaimed Franklin; "now
which do you mean in particular"
"Why, don't you remember, doc
tor, where you say, light hand
makes a heavy pocket He who
runs in youth may lie down in age
Industry must prosper and all
that? Now here have | been sinking
deeper and deeper instead of getting
on, work as would"
huHpu! ICIOIllcu IIduhIlu, ~
strikes me my friend, that where I
say, Industry must prosper there
is a note at the bottom to explain"
"a note? l don't recollect any
notes."
Then it is very likely your copy is
an imperfect one; many of my first
editions were; SO tomorrow Ill send
you proper one l have at home,
and if you'll take the trouble to look
over it, you will find under the line
Industry must prosper anote which
throws further light on the subject"
The doctor then rode on. The next
morning a packet was brought to
the farmers door containing the al
manac as promised, and after
thumbing few pages he found the
line, and beneath it and explanatory
note-for twenty dollars on the
Philadelphia Bank.

Making the Dairy PAY.

A well known dairy writer, in one
of our exchanges gives the following
five rules as being essential in the
manufacture of first-class butter:
Set out the milk quickly as possible
after milking.
Skim off the cream befare the milk
gets thick.
Churn before the milk gets sour, i.
e., slightly acid.
Wash out the buttermilk with weak
brine.
Salt an ounce to the pound and
pack in small packages.
If this article was written relating
to milk set in open pans, with no
modern appliances, and in any place
best calculated to keep the milk,
WITHOUT the expense of preparing a
place, the rules might W1rk, except
IN regard to sailing. This i TOD
high for modern tastes. Three quar-
tiers OF an ounce wa4ld csme HeaPer
the mark. But why advocate the old
plan Of open setting. when modern
appliances have simplifled this quea-
ton, so that the milk of 10 COWS can
be set in a very small space, where II
ice, or water from spring be not at
hand, cold water from the well may
surround the utensils for creaming7

Winter Rye.

On many farms, says the Plough.
man, a few acres of Winter rye might
be grown to as good advantage as
almost any crop: It requires but
little labor, and not much manure.
and in most localities the straw will
pay the cost, leaving the grain as
clear profit. Very few crops draw
SO little from the land, and very few
have so few enemies, or are so GER
tain to produce good crops every
year. Growing as it does in autumn
and spring it is not affected by
summer droughts, and it is gather
ing in substance from the surround
ing atmosphere at a season when
other crops use the least; for this
reason a crop ofrye takes but very
little fertilizer from the soil.

Migration Of Voters.

New York Tribune.
The migration OF population dur
ing the last eight years has been sur
prisingly large. Only those who
have watched the growth of the rail-
road system from $1,000 miles in
1880 to 155,7OO in 1888 have
been prepared to see the mar
yelous increase which has just ap-
peared in the votes of some new
states and territories. This enor-
nous migration has involved some
consequences which politicians are
apt to overlook.
Careful estimates of population in
dicate that the increase west OF the
Mississippi river since 1886 has been
about 100000, of which about
100000 has been in the states
Missouri, Arkansas, Louisiana and
Texas, mainly by immigration from
the South, and 100000 in the
other trans-Aiississippi states and
territories. A very large share Of
this new population has been drawn
from the older states east Of the
Mississippi. The voting shows, also
that a large majority of the
migrating voters from the older
Northern states have been Republi-
cans. In the new states and terri
tories, whose chief industry is farm
ing, the proportion of persons of the
voting age is from 80 to 40 PSF cent.
and In the other, and especially the
mining states and territories, from
40 to so per cant, while in the older
states it is from Is TO % per cent.
Accordingly, it may be inferred
that at least 100000 persons ct
voting age have passed from North
ern states across the Mississippi with
in the eight years since the last cen
sus was taken. 1t appears probable,
moreover that nearly half "a million
of these have settled in territories
not yet admitted to statehood, and
the rest in the ns-agississippi
states. Oregon and California, Colo
RADIO, Kansas, Nebraska and Mime
sofa have gained greatly in Republi-
can votes at the expense OF older
Eastern states. The territories yet
excluded have also gained in the
same way, and apparently the pro-
portion of new Revpblican voters in
them is still larger

A Good Rule for Stables.

The following is one of the rules :
a prominent livery stable in this city
where horses of many wealthy men
are boarded. "No man will be en-
ployed who drinks Intoxicating
drinks. No man must speak loud to
any one of the horses, or in the stable
where they are. Horses of good
blood are nervous, and loud, excited
conversation is felt by every
horse in the stable that hears it.
Excited words addressed to one horse
are felt by every other horse that
yous and uneasy. No man may use
profane language in the hearing OF
the horses" If such rule prevailed
in all the livery and many other
stables through out the country, the
welfare of all concerned would be pro-
NOTED. Let it be generally adopted.

: The fire in the Calumet & Hecla mine seems
ito have taken fresh lease of life. More
smoke is issuing from the shaft than since
the fire first broke out. 1t is feared that it
is gaining ground, but the only means OF
telling is by the temperature which is rising
at the bottom of the shaft. current OF
air is passing down one shaft and up ther,

posed not to lack gall to make OPP

viewer that she has lived on terms ST
friendship and without quarrel with
her dressmaker for many years. This

instance, can put their hands on their
hearts and swear that they have
maintained unbroken cordial rela-
tions with their tailors for decade?

THE FARM.
Agricultural Notes.

The creamery system, as we find it
in this country, is far from being per-
feet, and yet it possesses some advan-
tages over the aver age farm dairy.
Two horses of one kind will do as
much work as four horses of another
kind, and it ought not to be hard to
determine which is the more profita-
BILE.
To remove warts from q cows teats
q correspondent of Hoard's Dairy
man recommends a mixture of one
part of sulphur to three of lard, ap-
piled after each milking.
The necessity for every farm owner
to understand the special properties
of his soils is evident from the fact
that, with the great diversity which
exists in soils, no single compound can
meet the needs of all.
Cattle of all kin DIS should be provid-
ed with shelter, and now is a good
time to provide it if no t already fur
nished. 1t need not a lways be expen-
sive. Comfort should be the first
consideration.
1t costs something like $40 a year
to maintain cow. and the profit
lies in what she yields above the
cost of care and maintenance. From
this it follows that even small in
crease in the amount OF butter very
materially affects the value of the in
dividual.
The Rural World believes that the
general farmer with 200 acres of
land should keep fifty sheep for
utility's sake alone. Such men can
afford to estimate the value of sheep
from the standpoint ofmeat, fertility,
and the the general advantage to
the market price of the wool,
The finer the condition of the man
ure and the more evenly it is spread
over the surface the sooner it will be
converted into plant food and the
better it will nourish the plants. As
the fall is an excellent time to haul
and spread the manure a little care
given the matter of spreading repaid
in the spring.
1t is convenient and apparently
economical Ito breed animals only
eight months old, or even younger.
The SOW can be marketed when eight
teen months old, being kept through
only one winter. But immature
animals cannot produce offspring
as strong and vigorous as the off
spring of older animals.
When farm implements are housed
for winter they should be painted
with crude petroleum mixed with
enough coloring matter co give it a
substance that will hold it on. If
this is done their durability will be
greatly increased, and one of the
most serious farm expenses be cor
respondingly lessened.
An Observant Maryland farmer,
who has been travelling in the West,
writes: II am confirmed in my old
opinion that if our farmers would
practice the same rigid economy, il-
dustry and perseverance here that
the emigrant is forced to do in the
West, they would be as well or bet
ter off financially after a term OF
years"
There are in many pieces Of corn
this year an unusual proportion OF
what are called nubbins. These are
imperfect ears. caused by drought
just at caring time. It does not pay
to husk and put these in the crib:
Left on the stalk the cattle will find
them next winter, and eat husk,
corn and cob with a relish that will go
far towards digesting the less palat-
able mOrsels.
