Extent of the Dairy Business.

There are 81, 2,O0O, ,5OO, 600 invested in the
dairying business in this country" said a
citizen, with a prediction for statistics
THAT amount is almost double the money
invested in banking and commercial indus
tries. 1t is estimated that 1T requires 15,-
100000 cows to supply the demand for milk
and its products in the United States. To
under cultivation. The agriculture and
dairy machinery and implements in use are
worth over 500, ,OOO, 900. The men employed
in the business number 10000, and the
horses, over 100000 The cows and horses
consume annually 100000 tons of hay,
nearly 100000 bushels of corn meal, about
the same amount OF oatmeal, 275, 600
bushels of oats, 100000 bushels
of bran, and 3O,OOO,OOO bushels
of corn, to say nothing of the brewery
grains. sprouts and other questionable feed
of various kinds that are used to great
extent. 1t costs S450, ,000, 600 to feed these
cows and horses. The average price paid to
is probably $40 a month, amounting to
S1S0.0OO,0 900 year.
The average cow yields about $50 GAL
Ions of milk year. which gives a total
product of 6.T50, ,OOO,O 900 gallons. Twelve
cents gallon is fair price to estimate the
value of this milk at, total return to the
dairy farmers of $4,000, 900. if5he sold all
his milk as milk. But 30 per cent. of the
milk is made into cheese and butter. 1t
takes % pounds of milk to make one pound
of butter, and about 10 pounds to make
one of cheese. There is the same amount
of nutrition in Sl2 pounds of milk that
there is in one pound of beef. A fat steer
it would require about 24.000,OO0 steers,
weighing 1,500 pounds each, to produce the
same amount of nutrition as the annual
milk product does"

Household Hints.

Chemists say that it takes moro than
twice as much sugar to sweeten preserves,
sauces. ETC., IL put In when they begin to
cook as it does to sweeten after the fruit
is cooked.
Part of an orange taken to the kitchen
sink, broken in and rubbed on the hands of
the person who serves at table, is good
way of severing all connection with dish
cloth or other greasy odors for the time
being. Next to coffee comes oranges in sub
stituting pleasant and agreeable OdOrs for
disagreeable Odors. If for no other reason.
they ought to be frequent visitors at all
homes.
Among the many desserts that can be pre-
one of the daintiest Take piece of rennet
an inch and half long, or desertspoon-
full of the wine in which rennet is kept, to
each quart of milk; season with vanilla
little nutmeg and a tablespoonful of sugar.
and set the vessel containing these ingredi.
ents in warm place near the fire. Keep. 1t
closely covered. and when it is firm like
blanc mango. as it should be in about half
an hour, place 1T upon ice until wanted.
Serve with powdered sugar and cream.
Good Housekeeping: Benzine, finely
sprayed with a hand atomizer, will Pene-
trate the minutest cracks. and Is sure death
to the bed bug in all Its stages including
the egg. 1t Is certain remedy, and, used
thoroughly, will destroy every bug In
house. Kerosene is almost as good, and is a
little more lasting III it effects. Many pre-
ventives have been advised. but none are
permanent. One of the best formulas for a
substance with which to paint the cracks
in bedstead or the wall is one ounce cor
rosive sublimate. half-pint alcohol and one
quarter pint spirits turpentine.
Detroit Tribune: The best domestic
calisthenics-the one which brings the
greatest number of muscles into PLAYS
bcd-making. 1t is better than rowing.
lawn tennis or any other exercise taken I'M
der the form of pastime Ii mothers could
beguile their girls into making up beds in
the form of pastime, they would be aston
ished at the direct and visible result.
There is no better opportunity for arm cx-
ercise. and for the development of the mus
cles of tho chest. 1t is a clean exercise,
making no dnst or dirt to be afterward dis
posed of. beside being q graceful occupa-
tion and one which sets off tho figure and

it was only fashionable for our girls to
make beds it would be found q pleasant
recreation and not be looked upon, as il now
is, q tiresome requirement..

Country Gentleman.
Since the general introduction and use of
arsenic in Paris green and London purple,
those who use and apply these deadly
poisons to the potato crop, have gradually
become careless in applying them. Ex-
treme caution was observed at first, result
ing from wholesome dread of the real
danger under carelessness. Familiarity
has gradually dissipated this fear. Oper-
ators allow the eddy currents of wind to
blow the dust into their breath. The
poison is sometimes thoughtlessly applied
to potato fields on the windward sides of
dwellings or children's play grounds; In
sufficient fences have permitted cattle. to
devOur the leaves and die. Hence the i'm
pOrtance of keeping up constant care.
The danger has increased since the dis
covery that the cOdling moth may be easily
destroyed by spraying arsenic The poison
is now more commonly used, and with many
the carelessness is increasing. Still an
other step is now about to be taken towards
danger. The papers have widely published
and claimed the use of spraying to protect
the plum crop from the curculio Plum
and small fruits. such as awberries, cur
rants and raspberries, are planted beneath
their spreading branches or within reach of
the spraying-nOZzle to receive share OF
the deadly liquid. These small fruits ripen
and are eaten very soon after the spraying
has been performed, and before abundant
rains have washed all the poison from the
rough or wrinkled exterior of most of these
fruits. Thus in two ways the danger is
made much greater with garden plums than
with the larger apple orchards.
In using Paris green for the potato beetle.
there is no danger of the poison ever enter
ing the tuber. 1t is insoluble; it is thrown
ON the surface of the soil, and not on the
potatoes beneath the soil; and there is
nearly always many times more iron in the
soil than will neutralize all the arsenic
In protecting the potato, therefore, the
only danger is in carelessly applying the
powder. But a more formidable danger
now threatens its use for the curculiO.
