Shrinkage In Values.

The argument i still heard that farm
Ing does not pay a reasonable reward for
capital invested and for the effort put
forth by the farmer, and the erumhlcr
goes on to cite the abandonment of farms
and the decline in values As proof of the
souudness of the position taken. Such
arguments fail entirely To comprehend
the fact that other industries have like
record. Abandoned manufactures are
not unfrequent, and q general shrinkage
Of value of those still operated, is well
ard painfully known to their owners.
Margins of profit are narrow.
So too, there had been a like shrinkagc
IN the earning power of money Rates
of interest and dividends on stock are
low, and show measure of shrinkage
fully equal to that which has taken place
In farm property Three per cent. gov
eminent securities sell at Il premium a.
high a six per cent. once commanded.
Has money become "unpruiitable!" Yet
where does farming or its products show
a greater decline:
The actuary of the New England Life
Insurance Company has compiled SOME
interesting tables showing that the ayera-
re rates of interest received ny the Massa-
chusetts savings bank in Isl was 6.o
per cent, which amount has fallen on
by an almost regular progression 10 :
per cent in lss,. This Is a decrease in
the protitablcncss-or the earning power
of money at interest Of 20 per cent.
IL is plainly evident that farm values
have declined, but there is no escape from
this shrinkage by investments In other di-
rections. When all that is realized from
labor and labor and life on the farm re-
ceiyes its full measure of credit, there
will he no occasion for the claim that
farming does not pay.
The Somerset reporter., 1889-03-14

Said noted cook in New York city re-
Gently: A few cooks understand the
many effects produced by hard and soft
water in cooking vegetables and meat.
If peas and beans, for instance, are
cooked hard in water containing lime and
gypsum they will not boil tender, because
these vegetables have a tendency to hard
EN- vegetable caseine. Now. many veg
etables, as onions, boil nearly tasteless in
soft water, because all the flavor is boiled
out. The addition of salt often checks
this, and in the case of onions causes
the vegetables to retain their peculiar fla
voring principles, besides such nutritious
matter as might be lost in the soft water.
Some of the finest dishes in the world are
ruined by the use of hard water when
soft Is required. 1t Is science that can
best be learned by actual experience rs
assistant chief. 1t requires a long APP
and natural aptitude to be-
come great cook and to understand
water. Now, to extract the juice of
meat to make broth or soup, soft water,
unsalted and cold at first, Is the best, for
1t much more readily penetrates the It's
sue; but for boiling, where the juices
should be retained, hard water or soft
water sailed is preferable, and the meat
should be put in while the water Is boil
ing so as to close up the pores at once.
have two assistants, and once week
lecture them on the use of hard and soft
water in cooking certain dishes. The
water goes long way in keeping first
class cuisine in a healthy and sanitary
condition.
The Somerset reporter., 1889-03-14
Feeding for Profit.

Judicious feeding by no means implies
excessive feeding, but the very reverse,
says the Jersey Bulletin. Excessive feed
ing does not increase the power of assim-
ilation, and assimilation is the only true
measure of value in feeding. What is
not assimilated is practically wasted.
The wise way is to test the cows is by the
scales. that Is, weigh the cows, weigh
their food, weigh their milk. and weigh
their butter. Increase the food as long
rs the yield of milk increases. When the
milk becomes stationary the ration is
large enough. If the milk is not rich in
butter, change the proportions of the diff
ferent articles In the Acknowledgement the
bran and increase the corn meal for few
days; If this does not produce an Increase
in richness, that is. does NOT lower the
number of pounds of milk necessary to
make a pound of butter, then you are not
dealing with real butter COW. On the
other hand If she Is real butter COW the
probabilities are that the amount of milk
will fall OFF somewha as its richness IN
creases. Should the butter yield increase
steadily, increase slowly the meal and
linseed or cotton-seed meals, always
weighing and testing by the scales and
the pocket-book. Some rich people NAV
keep cows for pleasure. but most people
keep them for profit. The only way to
get at the profits is to test, by weight, the
outlay and the income.
