POOLING OF CREAM.
A Factory Custom Which stands In Nee
Of Reformation.

A Factory Custom Which Stands In Need
of Reformation.
Cream is delivered at the creamery
and credited by the gnage. 1t is within
comparatively few years that any test
Of the quality was thought of. Then it
was discovered that certain measure
might make all the way from eight
ounces OF butter to twenty-four, accord
ing to quality. This led to the churn
test, which was applied once month or
SO, for the purpose Of fixing a standard
of credit for the different herds. But
now it is found that the quality may
vary so much from day to day in the
same herd, tn at nothing but daily test
can secure exact justice. Still the pool
ing of cream goes on, the owners of good
herds losing what the owners OF poor
herds gain as premium for inferiority.
A daily test by any of tho known meth
DDS is almost impossible, involving too
much labor and expense; and any test
short OF a churn test does not show the
churning qualities of the cream, or what
per cent. Of fat can be churned out Of it.
Chemical tests only show the amount OF
fat in tie cream, not what can be
churned out. Plainly there can be not
even an approximation to exact justice
in the pooling OF cream or milk until we
have a test SO simple, cheap and expedi'
tious that it can be applied to every
mess as it comes to the creamery, and
will show the churning quality. Until
this test is found, intelligent owners of
best herds will stear clear Of creamery
and factory.-Michigan Farmer.

The Discreet wOsna N.

A recent writer has summarized the
qualities of 1.-The discreet woman" some
thing as follows: She can think as we'll
as speak: does not rely on her ''woman's
instinct to teach her how TO do every
thing. but is willing to be shown that
which she does not know and taught
that which will be useful to her: gcncr-
ally manages to have a reverse force 81
knowledge which is not pcrsisiently
displayed on every possible and impossi-
BILE occasion: does not tell lie, large or
small. if she can help it, but If one
seems necessity she ''sticks to it,"
though heaven and earth combine
against her; she does not tell the ''why
and wherefore Of every thing known
or supposed, even to her best friends;
does not display her power over any
man, or demand any thing as her right;
but knows her rights and how to get
them without friction or ill-will. To
this it may be added that she mingles
kindness with rebuke, gentleness with
firmness, consideration for others with
an earnest care for the special interests
of herself and her family, and in speak
ing of her neighbors dwells with more
satisfaction upon their good deeds than
on their shortcomings. Good House

HOW WOMEN VOTE IN KANSAS.

An Experiment which Has Proved the
Feasibility Of . Grand and Ever-GrowInc
Movement.
In estimating the results OF woman
suffrage, an ounce Of experiment is
worth ton of theory. The Kansas City
Star gives the following account OF the
manner in which the women of Kansas
vote:
The experiment OF equal suffrage in
Kansas has proved that while the women
OF that State prize the ballot and have
shown capacity for the intelligent ex-
crcise of the elective franchise when the
occasion demands it. they are not eager
TO participate in politics unless drawn
into 1t by sense of duty. When an is
sue comes up in municipal election
which concerns the home and touches
the family, the women she. an active
interest, and promptly avail themselves
Of the privileges which the law confers
upon them. They have been influential
in elevating tho standard OF municipal
government in Kansas, and are mainly
found on the right Of public questions
The ringstcrs and machine politicians
find stubborn check in the female vote,
and to the honor of the sex the women
have not permitted themselves to be
manipulated in the interest of corrupt
schemes and selfish plumber.
The right to vote has not tended to
nnsex the women Of Kansas. The
privilege has been more largely cxer-
cised by women Of culture and refine
ment than by the vicious classes, and
the mothers, wives and daughters who
grace the homes of Kansas, and
who make their moral impress upon
society though the family have suf-
fercd no loss OF those gentle qualities,
by contact with public affairs as voters
Their presence ut the polls commands
the respect which men in civilized COM
mnnities are always prompt TO show to
women, and many Of the evils which
formerly disgraced the voting places in
the towns and cities Of Kansas have been
done away with.
There is not much danger that the
women Of Kansas will neglect their
domestic duties or become Indifferent TO
those higher obligations which they
SusldlH dS WIVES anu IUOG0cTS. III the
pursuit of public honors. There are
cases of this kind in Kansas, but they
are not moro frequent there that else
where. The large body OF women every
where have little instinct for politics,
and their preference by nature and cdu-
cation is for the quietcr spheres in which
they shine with the purest lustre. A
deviation from these lines is not the
choice Of any considerable portion Of
them, and such a departure may gener-
ally be accepted as proof that the male
voters have fallen short Of their duty
and have failed to provide adequate
government for the peace and protection
OF society. The interest which the wo-
men of Kansas show in local politics
will be exactly proportioned to the
willingness and the capability OF the
men to furnish wholesome mnniciple
government. and when they fail to do
this tho female vote may be relied upon
as certain agency in correcting the re-
suits Of such Indifference.
