MANAGEMENT OF COWS.

The profit from COW depends
very much upon the management
for some time previous to the
calving. The best COWS are al
ways threatened by that usually
fatal disease, milk fever, unless
care is exercised to avoid the
danger. The average COW which
escapes this disorder needs equal
care to secure the greatest pro-
duct of milk for the longest time;
and in business dairy where the
calf is to be reared, its valde Will
depend upon the manner in which
the COW is managed. DOcility is a
considerable element in the value
of a COW, and this is to be looked
to as much as a large milk yield
So that there are three important
points to be considered-the safety
of the COW which, from her large
development of udder and her rich
milk yield, runs the most risk from
the reaction consequent upon the
disturbance of her system due 10
the calvlng; the judiciOus feeding
of the COW whose system IS TO De

and IN all cases the training OF tue
calf for its future usefulness
Heavy mixers sholld be kept on
spare diet tor at least a month pre-
vious to the calving. No grain
should be given. Good hay is
sufficient at this season. Some
COWS hold on to their milking so
persistently that it is difficult to
dry them off; it bat should be
done at least three weeks before
the time expires. 1t is great
mistake to encourage the flow of
milk up to too late a period, for the
purpose OF boastiug of the character
of the COW. The frequency OF MIX

protest against this misuse OF the
animal and the breach of natural
laws. The flow of milk should be
reduced first by feeding only dry
hay, and second by partial milk
ing only, always leaving some milk
in the udder, and gradually lesSlng
the quantity taken. If the COW
has ever been attacked By milk
fever, occasional does of pound
of EPSON salts Will tend to avert

in this disease. To stimulate the
average COW, which is rarely in
danger of this kind, the food should

Jersey Cattle for Beef.

And now comes a statement that
VIII astOnish people who have been
told, and verify believed, that
Jersey cattle are "no good" for
beef making. 1t is stated that In
some late experiments by the
Michigan Agricultural College, the
surprising result was found that
jersey beef, though costing more
to fatten, was enough better, fol
those who appreciate the difference
between good beef and poor, TO
pay for the extra expense. This
is contrary to the common impress
sion among farmers. The small
size of Jersey cattle has turned at
tentiOn from this breed for the
blt;he-, but it hal ia the expert

other, AMI was especially fine

EXTRACTED HONEY.

In a prize essay written by w.
7. F. Petty for The american Bee
Journal occurs the following state
ment concerning extracted honey
which can hardly fail to be OF in
terest to apiariSts.
Extracted honey Is honey in its
purest condition, exactly as
gathered and rlpened by the bees,
without the admixture of any
foreign matter. In this latter
particular it differs from the strain
ed honey of a few years ago, which
was obtained by crushing the
cOmos. By means OF the
movable comb hive and the ex-
tractor bee keeping has been revo-
latiOuized, The application OF
these inventions to the production
of extracted honey, though differ
ing in some minor details with dit
ferent apiarists, is about as follows:
The bees are obliged to build
their combs in movable frames,
which may be removed from the
hive without injury to combs or
bees. These combs, when filed
with honey and sealed over by the
bees, are taken from the hive, the
adhering bees brushed of and the
combs taken to the extracting room
For this room the necessary ap.
planes are an extractor, an un-
Gaping table, can for pouring the
newly extracted honey into, and,
lastly, the receptacles in which it
IS to be placed upon the market.
The frame of comb TO be extract
Ell Is taken by the operator, the
upper end being held by his left
hand. while the lower end rests on
the uncapping table with the un-
Gaping knife in mis- right hand, he
begins at the lower end OF the
comb and cats off drop into a sieve,
which is beneath the center of the
uncapping table. The top of this
table should be covered with tin

ing the drlppings. The comb, be-
ing uncapped on both sides, is
placed into the extractor, which is
vessel for catching the drlpplngs.
The comb, being uncapDed on both
SIX is placed into extractor,
which is a machine for separating
the honey from the comb by means
of centrifugal force. This force
and It's mode of action are best
illustrated by taking the ia niliar
C ,>e Of the grludstOne.
The honey extractor IS so con.
s,roc,ed that the force, which
causes tue drops of water to fly
from the stone-in the case of the
grndstone causes the liquid
honey, in the case of the extractor,
to be thrown from the cells OF the
combs.
As commonly made, the extrac-
tor is a large can in which is a re.
voiving basket, or frame, made of
coarse wire cloth, the axis of revo.
lation being vertical. This axis is
50 geared with cog wheels that for
each revolution OF a crank, turned
by the hand, the basket will make
about five revolutions.

IRISH PATRIOTS ARRESTED.

A Wholesale Raid Upon the National.
1sts-DillOn and O'Brien Among the
Accused-A Charge of Conspiracy-
The Governments Action Wholly n
Surprise.
DUBLIN, Sept. 1S.-John Dillon was ar
rested this morning at his residence near
this city. He was conveyed on special
train to Tipperary, accompanied by
large military escort. William O'Brien
was arrested at Glengariff and taken to
Cork.
Warrants have been issued for the arrest
of Messrs. Sheedy and Condor, members
of the house of commons, Patrick O'Brien
and the Rev. David Humphreys of Tip
perary.
The charges on which Mr. Dillon was ar
rested are conspiracy and melting the ten
ants on Smith-Barry's estate not to pay
their rents.
Mr.. Dillon in an interview said that the
object of the government in taking such q
step was a mystery to him, unless it was
their intention to prevent the mission of
his associates to America. He was sure,
however, that the Americans would not
deprive the tenants of the Tipperary and
other estates of needful support, although
it might be impossible for Mr.. o'Brien
and himself to go to America and make a
personal appeal in their behalf. In his
opinion the arrests would do more harm
to the opposition of the tenants than half
dozen public meetings. Mr.. Dillon also
remarked that the coincidence of a priest
denouncing the Irish agitation at the very
moment when the warrants for himself
and his associates were being drawn would
appear to MANY not to be a mere accident

Discoveries OF Value to the Prosecu.
ton THE Several Confessions -
Where the Plot Was Connected.
ALBANY, Sept. 18.-The Albany saloon
where the Central train-wreckers concoct-
ed the plot is known to be Pauley's,, at the
corner of Clinton avenue and Quail street.
The local assembly of the Knights of
Labor to which the five men belonged
meets in the hall ON the floor above the
saloon. Pauley's place has been favorite
resort for the strikers during the recent
trouble. Herman and Cain lived within
very short distance of the place, and Buett
and Cordial had to take only short walk
to reach it. The men were there a great
deal during the strike, and on the morn
ing after the wreck they all came across
the river and went up on the hill to the
rendezvous. One of the party, said to be
Cain, stayed in the place until 6 o'clock
that morning. Robert Pinkerton is
known to have much corroborative evil
dence in addition to the confessions of the
three wreckers, which will implicate all
the men who were in the plot. No one is
known to have seen the men place the OBJ
structions on the tracks.
the Central company had no doubt that
Herman and Cain placed the Instructions
on the track which came near wrecking
train between Karners and West Albany
on August 80. 1t has been denied that
ties were placed in front of this train, but
the detective said there could be no doubt
of the story.
When Reed made his confession in Su-
perintendent Bissells Office, his words
were taken down by a stenographer. AZ
forwards the statement was typewriter
and submitted to a prominent lawyer.
Reeds composition was illiterate and weak,
he having told all the important facts, but
tried to wriggle out, duplicating himself no
more than he could help. The lawyer re-
arranged the statement SO as to make the
facts tell strongly against the wreckers.
Then the three typewriter pages were
read to Reed and he affixed his signature
to the confession in the presence of wit
nesses.
Gains confession states that he was part
ly intoxicated at the time and was induced
to go into the job by others, who said
they were only gong to throw freight
train off the tracks so as to cause a block
ade.
Buett's confession is said to have an adj
dendum in which he declares that after
the party started to place the Instructions
on the tracks he did not see Herman and
Cordial with them, and he believed they had
dropped behind in Greenbush.
The opinion still prevails in certain
quarters that there was sixth man with
the wrecking party and that he acted the
part of guard at some point remote from
the wreck.
While Cordial has not made a confes-
| sion, he is said to have dropped enough to
| condemn him. Herman, the ringleader,
seems to be the only one of the men who
has kept his mouth shut.
