Special dairy education is required to
make the kind of butter that will COM
mand the best market price. This kind
Of education the farmer Is slow to give
himself. Nine of the ten pounds of
milk used to produce the slxteen-cent
butter would have made twenty-five
cent butter could 1t have been taken
from the farmer as soon as drawn from
the COW and subjected to first-class
creamery conditions Hence the great
advantage Of the creamery. The great
mass Of farmers who keep cows are not
dairymen. Something needs to be done
to make them rub against one another
and thus show up their deficiencies.
This something Is . creamery. The
moment it comes to the neighborhood
every man who patronizcs 1t is put in
comparison with his neighbor. This
stimulates him to increase his product.
The creamery becomes the center Of
dairy education for the little knot Of
men who are its patrons. The reason
.he farmer doesn't make more ont of his
cows is because he lacks dairy learning.
Many farmers are unified by education
and contact with tho world to make .
success as merchants. To get remuner-
alive prices one must study the market
and invent ways OF reaching the high
est-priced customers. He must keep
points constantly in mind. For this
reason creamery men are more success
full as marketmen. Farm life keeps q
man between his own line fences and
makes him measure himself by himself.
This keeps him in ignorance of the kind
of man or buttermaker he Ia. The
faamer takes his butter to the country
store and swaps it of, never securing a
particle of market education because he
is not selling in butter market-A Z.

WOOL.GROWERS.


Some Points for Their Careful Considers
ttOn.
The American wool-grower has not
been the well-informed man he ought
10 be, says the Breeders Gazette.
There il no reflection meant OF his skill
in breeding and management OF hooks;
no sountry ex'eis America In this dl-
:.s.ion; but The wool-growers OF the
United States have been hustled by the
foreigner without knowing how the
thing was done. The idea has been to
shut of this unwelcome rivalry from
our markets by law, rather than prac-
teal economical systems OF wool-gro~-
Ing, which would give such advantages
as would hold American markets for
Americans TO do this it is necessary
that we should know what we can DO
for ourselves in addition to what Con-
gress is willing to do. providence
helps those who help themselves
Congress seems willing to do something
In this way; and il we can do any thing
for ourselves it is nothing more than
right that we should.
ltis hoped the intelligent efforts to show
what can be done on American soil by
our own sheep-raisers may lead to
broader views in intensified, diversified,
direct systems and special purposes that
may apply to the varied conditions and
changes going on in agriculture, manu-
features and trade.
1t is important to know just how sue
ccssfully we may be able to compete
with the wool-growers OF other coun-
tries. After knowing what we can do
for ourselves we must know the skill,
methods aud abilities of wool-grOwers
In the countries where the cheap woods
are produced that press us SO badly.
Yankee genius, so proverbial for push
and persistence. succeeds by knowledge
of their own resources and OF those who
oppose their enterprises. Let tho
American wool-growers know all about
the methods and resources Of the world .
wool-growers. and they will find the
way to protect themselves. Settle the
systems Of sheep.raising on Arm facts,
not theories, and the blunders OF the
past will be removed by energy and
brains. The American sheep-raisers
need to know all there is to know Of
foreign breeding, feeding, management,
possibilities and advantages in climate,
feeds and all else that favor them; then
there will be a mutual understanding
and adjustment OF means to ends that
we now know not of.
