same as on steel, but nine out of ten men

why so many people carry inferior pocket

Regarding the Swimming Of the milk
and the preparation of the cream be-
fore churning, it may be stated that
nearly all the mistakes are made be-
fore the churning begins. This sub
ject is an important one TO those who
keep only one or two cows. and is
prompted by the following from lady
in Delaware
In Swimming the cream to put away
for the churning should any milk be
taken with it, and if not what is done
in case there is not sufficient cream at
the end OF the week TO ehurn. find
that the milk | lift with the cream
turns to sour water, and | should sup
pose it would affect the butter. In
case the milk is too cold for the butter
to come what can be done TO bring it
up besides keeping in for some time
where it is warm? | mean when it
won't ''break" from cold. What can
be done to bring butter Immediately?
1t is almost an impossibility to skim
off the cream without taking away
some of the milk, but the difficulty is
due, as rule, to the keeping OF tho
cream until enough can be secured for
a churning. II large number OF
cows are kept this difficulty is avoid
cd, as it is an easy matter TO have
cream OF one age, and which has
ripened at the same time. When cream
is gathered and saved until more cream
can be obtained in order 10 secure SUI
fcient quantity, the difference in the
age and stage Of ripening compared
with that which is gathered later is
something great enough TO cause the
butter to be slightly bitter. The sooner
the cream is taken off the milk, and
the sooner it is churned after being
gathered tho better 1t is we'll enough
to develop slight acidty in
the cream, but it should not
be very sour Experienced dairymen
recommend that the temperature OF
the cream be raised to IS deg, as soon
as SKINNED, stirring it down 20 81
deg, and churning at the first stages
of seidity. 1t is best to skim off the
cream as soon as it can be done i'm
stead OF waiting for evc'y portion Of ii
to rise.

Prof. }. Hoyes Panton, OF the Guelph
(Ont.) Agricultural College, who has
investigated the causes of rust in wheat
and other grains, makes the following
conclusions:
1. Seasons are the chief cause of
rust; sudden changes of temperature
and rain, accompanied with close, still
weather are favorable to its increase.
2. Low-lying, rich soils are most
subject to attack.
3. An excessive use of manures, rich
in nitrogen, encourage the disease.
A. Late-sown grain is most subject to
attack.
3. Thinly-sown crops seem most Ii
able to injury.
6. Red wheats are less affected than
white varieties.
z, Rust is more common in the vi
entity of Burberry hedges than at a
distance.
To lessen the attacks of this trouble
some parasite farmers should avoid, as
far as possible, the conditions referred
to above. which seem favorable to its
propagation. BY so doing, they are
following in the line of practical and
theoretical teaching, and may expect
favorable results. Farmers Home

There is only one way TO cure Deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an inflamed con-
dition of the mucus lining of the Eusta-
chan Tube. When this tube gets in
famed you have a rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when il is en-
tirely closed Deafness is the resalt, and
unless the inflammation can be taken out
and this tube restored to its normal con-
dition, hearing will be destroyed for
ever; nine cases out of ten are caused
by catarrh, which is nothing but an in-
famed condition of the mucus surfaces.

FosTY.slx YEARS OLD.

This is our birthday. dear reader, and
We onter upon our forty-seventh year
with probably as much trepidation as
did our predecessors in 1913. when on
March LIST an infant was bora in
log cabin, swaddlcd in n iiye-column
folio and called the GRANT COUNTY
HERALD, under the tutilage of j. Allen
Barber, Nelson Dewey and Daniel Ban
ill. To give biography of the erratic
course of the HERALD and its owners
from that day to this would occupy
moro space than is permitted at present,
sufficient to say that the paper that
was forty-six years ago in its infancy,
has guided the immigrant, the pioneer,
the farmer, mechanic and miner; has
grown with their growth and strength ;
has guarded the interests of the county
and city, aud to-day enters upon new
year proud Of being an institution in
Que Of the wealthlest counties OF the
state.
Like all papers, the HERALD's path has
not been one entirely of roses. II has
had It's ups and downs; its moments of
prosperity aud periods of reverses. The
management will endeavor 10 uphold
the excellence that has always charac-
terized tho GRANT COUNTY HERALD. II
will be Republican first, last and all the
time, because we believe republicanism
10 be the foundation of our national
prosperity, enlightenment and unity
The growth Of Lancaster will necessarily
be our own. We desire to see 1t with
factories; q railway center; with the
convenicnccs Of water works and cleo
trio lights, aud larger thriving popula-
ton. Our aim viii be equality and JUS
