This story about Henry watterson. OF
the Louisville Courier-Journal, may not
be strictly correct; but II has such good
points that one cannot avoid wishing
that IL were. Owing TO some misunder-
standing few years ago, Mr.. Watterson
and one OF his sons are not on speaking
terms. The young man. however, while
a reporter on the Louisville Commercial,
was assigned to interview his father.
He sent up his card and was admitted.
You are, ! believe, said Mr.. Watterson,
holding the card In his hand, "a reporter
for the Commercially" Yes, SIR an

pere answered the questions addressed
TO him. Both men were very formal,
and at the close Mr.. Watterson said, as
he usually does after he Is interviewed:
Nov, young man, be sure to quote me
correctly" The son bowed and left.

There Is a great deal OF talk among
dairymen about the animal odor In
milk. We have always noticed that
there was great deal more OF IL In
winter than In summer. Perhaps the
following from the Farming World,
OF Edinburgh, Scotland, viii throw
some light On the subject: ''lf one
will test the milk OF cows kept In
filthy byres, and upon whose sides
Nth Is permitted to collect In adj
hcrent flakes. In this way the foul
ness will be very apparent. This
0dor has been called sometimes the
animal odor, and has been thought
10 be inseparable from cow. This
Is wholly untrue. 1t is the odor OF
filth which has every characteristic
OF manure, and which is discharged
with the milk because 1t could rot
escape through the skin, which Is the
natural outlet for it, and by which II
would escape freely and imperceptibly
II the skin were kept clean and In
healthful action by means OF thorough
grooming every day." Good ventila.
tion of stables will helpin the matter.

From the age Of forty to that Of sixty.

From the age of forty to that of sixty,
n man who properly regulates himself
may be considered in the prime of life.
His mature strength of constitution
renders him almost impervious to the
highest attacks of disease, and all the
functions are in order. Having gone a
year or two past sixty, however, he ar
rives at the critical period of his exist
ence. The river of death flows before
him, and he remains at n stand-still.
But athwart this river is viaduct
called the "Turn of Life" which, il
turned in safety, leads to "Old Age"
around which the river winds, and then
flows without doubt of causeway, to
affect its passage. The bridge is, how
ever, constructed of fragile materials,
and it depends upon how it is trodden
whether IL bend or break. Gout, apo
plexy and other maladies are also in the
vicinity to waylay the traveller and
thrust him from the pass; but let him
grid up his loins and provide himself
with perfect composure. To quote q
metaphor, the "Turn of Lifes has
turn either to prolonged walk or into
the grave. The system and power hav-
ing reached their utmost expansion,
now begin either to close, like the
flowers at sunset, or break down at
once. One injudicious stimulant, O
single fatal excitement, may force it
beyond its strength, while a careful
supply of props and the withdrawal OF
all that tends to force plant will sus-
tain IL in its beauty until night has
nearly set in.

Chicka ami snow.

When the snow Is here and the
weather severe, il is only with the
best of care that hen can raise q
brood of chicks. Much depends upon
the hen, though her capacity is often
overestimated. The hen should have
not more than ten eggs In winter,
and a quiet hen will be more success
full than one that Is active. The
greatest danger comes from some pre-
cocious chick that is never at rest. il
causing the hen 60 be continually fol-
lowing 1t at times, thus preventing
her from lowering the weaker ones.
1t is better, however, to keep the
hen confined in a coop, even IL she
and the chicks have dry shelter, for
there will be less liability of loss from
chilling of the chicks. AS the chicks
increase in size they will not be able
TO find places under the hen. IL she
has many OF them. 1t isquite credit
able to hen in winter il she can
raise six chicks, and she will probably
be more successful with five. Night
is the time when the chicks need the
most warmth, and it is then that the
hen should be securely placed where
the cold winds cannot reach her and
her brood. Farm and Fireside.

Il This Not SO?

How to handle the milk, manufac-
ture it, and place IL upon the market
in its best form, and know the needs
OF the consumer, is just as important
as to know and own a dairy cow, feed
and care for her, and give direction
and increased value to her progeny.
1t is dairy knowledge and understand
ing that we all stand so much in need
Of. A man may be good breeder of
dairy stock, may be even a scientific
feeder, and then fail in the disposal
of the milk Of his herd. The dairy
man must do more than keep his
cows well fed, housed, and furnish
them clean water to drink. He in
manufacturing, must discard the
''rule Of thumb" and guess work.
An intelligent system ofmilk setting,
cream ripening, oft churning, gran
ulation of butter, aud quick drlivery,
must go with the better herd.

There are indeed poorer establish

enterprising farmers, but improve
ment has been general If not univer-

newer lands, more recent improve
ments, made by men who went into
that region with scarcely more than
willing hands and stout hearts, and
their investments have virtually been
created with hard and patient labor.

by strong will and stout muscles, they

EASE tired feet by bathing them in
warm water in which few lumpSof
saleratus have been dissolved.
USE wire frame for boiling pota-
toes, and see how much Of vexation

To REMOVE stains of blood, satur-

warm water.
TO KEEP flies off gilt frames, boil
three or four onions in pint Of
water, then apply with a soft brush
to the frames.
BY rubbing with flannel dipped in
whiting the brown discoloration may
be taken off cups which have been
used for baking.

made by sticking an ordinary palm

LIVE STOCK AND DAIRY.

Better a shortage of food than

tion be temporarily detlcienU and the
vehicle for transporting the reserve

great harm will result. But no mat

done, but the system Immediately

So to the dairyman i may say that
IL hrs herd, however poor. is made
uncomfortable because of GOODNESS or
poorness or inaccessibilidy of the

hydraulics before buying thorough

Intensive Inarminr.

Year by year we are coming nearer
the farming that has long prevailed
In Europe. In the Eastern States
the aim is to grow a large crop upon
small area, while in the far West
the total only is looked at, and acres
are completely worthless. But things
are changing. Land is going up as
The fertility isgoing down, and soon
1t will be necessary to base every
thing upon the market value of a
load of dung. There is much comfort
In this for the Eastern farmer, who
needs to use every scrap Of fertilizer
be can rake and scrape together. He
can afford to dissipate the effect of
ton OF fertilizer upon a ten acre
field. He feels that he cannot SOW it
broadcast upon single acre, but
carefully places handful i'm each hill
Of corn or potatoes. Manure is as
much factor in farming as seed, and
the load from the barnyard goes
ahead Of the seed bag from the
granary. Till we'll what Is titled.

Butter never has specks when the
cream is taken off before the milk is
sour, kept warm and churned before
the milk has thickened in it, say be-
fore twenty-four hours. Should specks
occur, brine washing Is a great aid in
removing them, Cor ~ the bntter is
washed at the granular stage with
considerable water, the washing will

dry cream will go out with the water,
while specks or flakes of cheese be-

The Tomato.

No vegetable has undergone greater
development in the last generation than
the tomato. Persons who still esteem
themselves young will remember the
time when the only tomatoes to be seen
were the small round or oval ones called
love apples and deemed inedible. They
seem to have been appropriated for table
use first in this country, for an old Eu-
ropean traveller tells how he astonished
his fellow diners at a continental table
d'hote by eating the tomatoes placed on
the table purely as garniture.

When ducks become lame from no

says Farm and Fireside. Ducks are
easily affected in the feet and legs by
dampness and cold. They will re-
main in the water for hours, but they
are then exercising. When they re-
