Bees stinr 4 Team 70 Deatl.

While William Harris and his son
James were at the McKim farm, Steuben-
vile. ON the West Virginia side of the
river, two horses, hitched at the side of
the barn, slipped their brides and start
ed to run away. Harris, seeing the run
away, tried to head the horses, causing
them to turn and go through fence in
to yard where there were thirty bee
hives. Three hives were knocked over
by the horses
Thousands Of bees swarmed over the
horses, which lay down in the harness
moaning piteously AS young Harris
could not see the horses suffer he cut
the traces with butcher knife, while
the bees attacked him. He started the
horses off. When loose from the cattle
crate the horses ran in all directions in
the fields, uttering unnatural squeals, at
times rolling in the grass, moaning ter
ribly.
One horse lay down in creek, W IRE
it rolled and shrieked till death en1ed
its sufferings. The other horse was
caught and hay burned under it, but the
horse died in short time. Both were
fine animals. Young Harris was stung
badly, but he was bathed in a tub of
soda water, counteracting the poison

That the latitude Of place is noe con-
stant has long been suspected, but it was
only at the end of 1889 that systematic
observations, carried out at some of the
observatories of Central Europe, clearly
established the fact by eliminating all
chances of error in instruments and OBJ
servers. Professor Helmert reported in
No 1893 Of the Astronomische Ma
chrichten that the latitudes Of Berlin
and Potsdam, which had shown no per-
ceptible variation during the first six
months Of 1889. in the third quarter Of
that year increased at first and then
diminished, the movement continuing
till January, 1890.
In Berlin and Potsdam this decrease
amounted to from five to six inches, and
this variation was confirmed by observa-
tions at Prague and Strasburg, the re-
suits at the first three observatories
agreeing to within one-tenth of a second.
According to The Scottish Geographical
Magazine the subject is to be discussed
at the meeting of the commission for in
ternational geodesy, to be held in Frei-
burg, when, it is to be hoped, arrange
ments will be made for strict examina-
ton of this phenomenon.

About Thunder clonds.

Among the earliest symptoms of the
approach of a thunder storm is the ap-
pearance on the western horizon Of a
line of cumulus ("wool pack') clouds,
exhibiting peculiar turreted structure.
say on the western horizon, for most
of our changes of weather come from
that quarter, and it has been proved that
thunder storms, like wind storms, ad-
vance over the country generally from
some westerly point. This bank Of clouds
moves on, and over it appear first stream
ers and then sheets Of lighter upper
clouds Cirrus, or mares tail'0 which
spread over the sky with extreme rapid
ity. The heavy cloud mass comes up
under this film, and 1t is general OBJ
seryation that no electric explosion or
downfall of rain ever takes place from a
cloud unless streamers of cirrus emanat-
ing from its upper surface are visible
when the cloud is looked at sideways
from a distance. New Orleans Picayune,

MIX for Cheese.

Run the milk through an elevated
strainer in air of the same temperature
as the milk, and you will find the ami
NAL flavor gone. Take the new milk
and cool it rapidly with ice or cold
water, and you get rid of the heat, but
when you taste of the milk you will find
that the flavor is there, although YOU
will not smell it very much until it is
warmed up. This is where the cheese
maker is very often deceived, to wit:
The milk is brought to the factory cold.
and he does not discover anything wrong
until he gets it heated up. Then his
trouble begins, for the milk is 50 sweet
that he cannot get the acid to kill the
taint which is the inevitable result Of
that way Of handling the milk
There is only one way that milk can
be properly taken care Of for making
cheese during the summer months, and
that is by exposing it to the air, by using
an elevated strainer, or pouring with a
dipper from one can to another until the
temperature of the milk is about the
same as The surrounding atmosphere. If
this Is thoroughly done the gas will be
entirely driven out, and the milk will be
about the proper ripeness for making
good cheese. Repeated experiments
show that this animal odor or gas in
milk, rather than acidity, is what we
have to contend with in our efforts to
improve the keeping quality Of our
cheese, which is the greatest fault that
is found with it at the present time, and
what we must remedy if we are to com
pete with Canada in the markets Of Eng
lands. a. Smith

While most gems owe their tint to the
presence of some foreign coloring mat
ter the many hued and beautiful opal
differs. 1t is Opaque, deriving its beauty
from the marvellous property it pos
sesses of deconposing the rays Of light,
and thus rejecting from its polished
surface all the colors Of the rainbow. 1t
needs, therefore, no brilliant, but ap-
pears to the best advantage when alone.
1t is at present among the most priced
Of gems, and has held its place for ages.
Mark Antony once offered e170, 900 for
an opal the size of hazelnut, hnt the
owner, Nonius. Roman senator, pre-
ferred exile to parting with his treasure
In spite Of their value opals are unsafe
investments, for time and exposure dim
their luster, while their sensitiveness to
heat is SO great that the warmth of the
hand has been known to crack them.
The finest stones come from Hungary,
and among the Austrian crown jewels
are gems of greater size and beauty than
that which tempted the Roman emperor

NEWS FOR THE DAIRY.
CRITICAL OPINION AS TO THE BUT
TER EXTRACTOR.

A Machine That May Mean Revolution
in Butter SFaking-One Authority Who
Prefers the Butter Extractor to the
Cream Separator and Churn.
We early took the ground that the
butter extractor should have a fair
chance, SO far as we could give it, to
prove its usefulness, believing then, and
believing now. that if it can be used
to make the butter Of commerce it
simply involves a revolution Of the bust
ness. We can wait till we know before
making stupendous fools Of ourselves
by telling the creamery men Of this
broad land" that it is failure and then
have to take it all back.
There is probably many hundred times
as much butter being churned from
sweet cream, fresh from the creamers
and centrifuges, as there is being made
from the few butter extractors that are
now being operated. The first and most
serious criticism made on the butter Of
the extractor by many-ourselves in
cluded-more than year ago was that
it made butter devoid Of acidity. Many
retain the same view yet, while it has
been renounced by SO many within the
year, and sweet butter has 50 grown in
favor that it is far less bugbear to the
manufacturer than it used To be. In
deed when we get right down to the
bottom facts the difference between but
ter churned from the slightly acidifed
cream that is now mostly churned in
separator factories, if it is thoroughly
washed of Gaseous matter in the churn,
so there is a fair hope of its keeping
sweet twenty days, can hardly be dis
tinguished by experts from extractor
butter if it is made from pure and whole
some milk.
So it is not the sweetness of the butter
that is turned out by the extractor that
will lead to its condemnation in markets
that take millions of pounds of that
churned from freshest cream or from
that mildly acidiied and well washed.
The condemnation will come. if it comes
to stay, for the same reason it comes to
churned butter, and comes with swift

left in it, as it came to the extractor
when the milk had not been cared for
properly. We are now assured that that
defect is obviated; but even if it is, any
extractor can handle milk with success
till it is cooled down to go degs., no
more than cream can be churned from
the separator that comes out at IS to so
degs. till it has been cooled down to
proper churning temperature.
The extractor does not and cannot
make good butter, either in defiance of
the churning laws of nature or in con-
tempt of the laws that govern the proper
care of milk. before it can get control of
it. If all these laws are needed as well
as they have to be to preserve milk that
will make good and sweet cheese, the
extractor will do next to perfect work
today. But whether it can take IN
clean milk, and that out Of condition
otherwise, and succeed in rescuing it
when on the way to decay as well as
the separator and churn can, is the
question now in court.-Hoard's Dairy

A Change in the Manner Of Marketing.

A Change Ia the Manner Of Marketing.
If any one is desirous of seeing the
only extant specimen Of old fashioned
marketing it can be witnessed in and
about Washington market on Saturday
morning In a former generation the
head Of the household rose at daylight,
and grasping huge basket betook him
self to Washington, Clinton or jefferson
market to secure the choice cut of beef
and the freshest vegetables and berries
The leonine head and massive figure of
Gen. Scott could be seen nearly every
morning at jefferson market, and every
burly butcher and red checked market
woman looked for his greeting as mat
ter of course.
At Clinton market the heads of the
Lord, Lydig, Griffin, Aymar and other
families of social note did not disdain to
put in personal appearance, and amid
the jokes and laughter that the wit Of
the society man and the ready repartee
of the market woman provoked the work
of filing the basket was pleasant one.
Times change, and the grandsons Of the
men who carried their own baskets to
market are waited upon BY the butcher
and green grocer at their houses, but
some of the gray haired sons Of those
venerable men still go down to market
on Saturdays, and they naturally have
enough imitators to make this personal
visitation feature, on Saturdays espe-
eially This set are careful purchasers
and only buy after examination and
study They know what is good and
where to get it, and evidently it pays
them to carry their own baskets. New

Danger from Musical Instruments.

A French military surgeon has been
making researches on wind instruments
which had been used by phthisical
bandsmen, and warns musicians Of the
Importance of disinfection He recon-
mends that instruments shonld be filed
with per cent. solution Of carbolic
acid, or, in the case Of metallic instru-
ments, that they should be dipped into
boiling water. These precautions are Of
the utmost importance when phthisical
persons have used the instruments; for
it was found in such cases that liquids
used to wash them out presented d vim
lence similar to that Of a pure culture of
tuberculosis.
Fortunately, the danger is small as
long as the interior is thoroughly moist,
which of course it usually is; but when
an instrument has been lying by for
some time, SO that the interior has be-
come dry, there is real danger of air
containing dried germs of the disease
being drawn into the lungs of the person
who next plays upon it.-New York

Dairy Questions and Answer.

Here are some Of the questions and an
swers given at dairy institute held in
McDonough, N. Y:
Do you allow tobacco smoking where
you are making butter? No; never.
How can we best sell our butter? Di-
rectly to consumers. First sell to your
friends, and use them as aids to secure
other customers. In this way we may
save the commissions and profits of the
handlers.
VIII cream rise quicker at any time
by making the milk thinner: Yes;
cream viii always rise quicker by thin
ming the milk The smaller the volume
Of milk the sooner the cream viii rise
This fact teaches us not to have the milk
too deep in the pals or cans.
Should sour butter1nilk be put into
sweet cream? No; do not do that If
you do You will be likely to impart a
buttermilk taste to your cream and in
jure the flavor Of Your butter.
VIII butter keep better under brine
than salt? Butter should be packed solid
and the air excluded. This can be done
well with salt and u cloth at the bottom
and the top-frst salt. theu cloth, then
layer of salt paste ON top of all. Some
say that to submerge with brine is best.
