get the cream in twelve hours; $50 will

WITHIN due limits, poultry-keeping
is as profitable as any branch of farm
industry. AS an exchange says: " Eggs
are always cash. The farmer does not
have to wait for his money from the
sale of his eggs. They are in demand
at all times, and when one customer
has not the cash the next is ready to
take them. Perhaps nothing raised on
the farm is so free from the credit sys-
tenn as this product of the poultry
house, and the egg basket has helped
all classes, from the owner of large
farm to the widow with her little plat
of ground in city or village. Many
farmer can testify to the advantage of
having nice flock of laying hens and
plenty of eggs to take to market every
Saturday during the long period of
waiting for the next crop"

tie of as good quality, as far as breed
ing is concerned, as can be found in
English wales. We have an endless
supply of feeding stuffs. Our blue
grass pastures are not as rich and lux
uriant as the old grass of the Midlands,
but they are far above the average
grass fields found on a British farm.
From the lack of the root crop we can
not get that extraordinary winter finish
which places British beef above all ri
walls. But we are approaching it since
we came to use linseed cake and mill
feed in such abundance"
SPEAKING on the subject OF control
ling the quality of milk, the Ne,0 Dairy
says: "The professors of the Iowa sta
ton think they have settled the ques-
ton of the effect of food upoa the quail
ity of the cows milk. This has been
done with four cows of mixed blood.
They were able to so feed these cows
as to make the milk respond to their
demands, richer or poorer at will. Now,
suppose these same gentlemen secure
two Ayrshires and two Jerseys, and,
after first finding the per cent of fats
in their milk with ordinary food, try
with special feeding to see how nearly
they can make the two breeds come to-
gether in the per cents of fat. In
other words, can they turn an Ayrshire
into Jersey, and Jersey into an AYR
shire by feeding for that purpose? The
four cows they experimental with
might have been exceptional animals
1t is always dangerous to make out a
summer from one swallow. For years
it was not supposed that one COW was
greatly different from another COW,
save in minor respects, but as soon as
experiments aud investigations began
to be instituted it was quickly seen
that cows were born with distinctive
characteristics that feeding or care
could not change to any great extent,
and that improvement in cows was a
gradual work of development"

THOMAS SMITH of Hampton, Conn. =,
in the NeD England Farmer gives the
following account of how he kills ticks
on sheep: 81 buy ball of snuff or
enough to 60 over the whole flock at
once. / cut the snuff and pulverize it
on newspaper, put the snuff in glass
jar, take the jar, large pepperbox
and tablespoon, and dip the snuff from
the jar into the pepperbox, half or two
thirds full. Then / take the sheep
gently, lay her on her side, put my
knee gently on her head, open the wool
and shake the snuff on the skin in
places three or four inches apart, and
close the wool. put more of the snuff
around the neck, and in about three
days, if it is done well, the ticks and
nits will all be dead. The snuff is a
sure cure"
HERE is what happened to fox, &C.
cording to the Connecticut Farmer
ga few nights ago fox, while prowl-
ing about the western part of South
Glastonbury, near the river, caught his
tail in barbed-wire fence. In some
way, evidently in an attempt to escape,
he twisted it about the wire several
times and firmly anchored himself in
this novel way. OF course it did not
take very long for some one to discover
his plight in the morning, and the
Miller boys put an end to his chicken
stealing with their guns. The state
ments rest on perfectly uuassailable
testimony, and the incident makes, il
is believed, thoroughly unique record
in the history of fox hunting in Con-
necticut."
AND here is what happened to cow
in New York, as narrated in the New
York Journal. She was very valuable
animal, belonging to Owen Clancy of
Summit, n. Y: "She had wandered
into hollow cedar log, presumably TO
get into the shade, and in pushing her
way for fifty feet into the log, she passed
through place where it had splintered
in falling, with the splinters headed in
the direction she was going. OF course,
when she attempted to back out her
exitwas effectually blocked, the splinters
having sprung back. Aud there she
was, as securely confined as any pris-
oner in the penitentiary. When dis
covered, she had been imprisoned for
five days. Mr.. Clancy had to cut the
log in front of her before she could be
taken out, nothing the worse for the
experience, except for her enforced
fast. The cow weighs about 1900
pounds, so the size of cedar timber in
that meek Of the wood can be i'm
agined."

The Church's opportunity.

II there is one thing that is clear. it /,
that the people in general are no Longer
interested in mere doctrinal theology rs
they used to be- It i'll proved by the
popularity OF those preachers who tall
little TO their hocks about creeds and
doctrines. but much about humanitarian
ism and leading social and economic
questions. Life is SO hard and so crua,
In our time. 50 much is required Of MS, and
we want some one to tell us how to meet
the lions which stand ready to deyom
ms here and now at this moment There
IL 80 much. SO very much. to be met aud
fought now which our grandfather
never thought of.
Recognizing this fact. one Of the speak
ers at the recent Methodist Ecumeniea
council declared that the position OF
Methodism in the next century depended
largely on that church's attitude to the
labor question today. The pastors ot
any and all the churches have it in their
power to help solve the questions thai
sNex the working people. It is no longer
the time to council patient endurance Of
troubles which the history Of manisind
shows man can remedy by his own
gumption. They can be remedied in
peaceable, just.ways too. Pastors might
study with care economic science and
tie labor question from all standpoints
In some cases already preachers have
carefully informed themselves, and then
given lectures to their people on social
questions, and the audience hall was
always crowded. If the churches will
- into the labor question in the large
IN around way that the founder Of
Christianity would do if he were here on
earth again. they could help more than
any other agency now in existence.
They ought to do it.
