MILK TESTS.

The relative composition of milk gives
MS an idea of the amount Of nourishment
obtained from it. There is usuallyabout
eighty-seven per cent. of water, with
about thirteen per cent. of solids. These
solids are the nutritious part Of the
liquid, and they consist of fat or butter,
casein or cheese, milk, sugar aud certain
salts. Milk is thus naturally more valu.
able when it possesses greater quantities
of these solids. We often speak Of the
richness of milk, and this means that il
contains a larger proportion of fat solid
than any of the other substances. AL
though this fat is the most valuable COM
mercially, the casein has as much real
nutritious value.
The value of milk, however, is rated
by its amount of fat or cream, and this
has been brought about largely by the
general production of butter, to which
most milk is used. The other solid
substances scarcely receive any rating at
all. Milk that will show a test of twice
IS much fat as another lot is valued at
just so much more. Some cows, and
even herds, vary in the amount OF this
fat produced in the milk, and the ami
mals and breeds have come to be rated
according to the amount of fat which
they produce ia their milk.-American
4iryman.

Inc Whole matter was well summed M,
by Professor Riley In a recent %lect,,re
before the Lowell Institute In Boston, ~
which he said: sThe latest sensational
report of this kind was the rurnor en,ana.
ting from London within the last few
weeks that American apples were being
rejected for fear that their use was mn

see at once how absurd this fear IN, for
even II the poison that originally killed,
the worm remained intact one would have
to cut many barrels of apples at a meal te
get enough to poison a human being
Moreover, much of the p~oisonis wasbed
on oy rain, and some of it is thrown aft

there Is as a rule nothing left of the.
poison In the garnered fruit. Add to
this the further fact thatpfew neonle eat
apples raw without cutting awav the
calyx and stem ends, the only parts
where any poison could under the most
favorable circumstances remain, and that
these parts are always cut away in cook
lsg, and we see how utterly groundless
are any fears of injury aud how useless
any prohibltive measures against Ameri-
can apples on this score.-New York

MIX Powder.

The recent invention Of . German
acriculturist is attracting attention as .
convenient substitute for condensed milk.
He claims 70 hare solved the problem OF
preserving milf in q solid state for an Ii.
definite period. His milk powder, specI-
mems of which have been exhibited at
agricultural exhibitions in Germany 10
prepared from skinned milk, and it il
said to contain about thirty per cent. OF
albuninous matter, or about seven per
cent. more than meat Of good quality.
TIE powder is easily soluble in four OF
i've parts of hot water, and can be used
with great ease for the preparation Of
cocoa and other beverages, or incorpora.
fed with potato flour for confectionery
purposes and the like. Ia case che in-
vention turns out to be all that is claimed
for il. this will create an increased de-
msnd for milk and inaugurate Q new q :
dsstrv that cannot but prove advantage

SHADE TREES IN THE PASTURE.

If possible, every field used for pas
tnre should have a shade tree in it. The
trees may produce fruits and nuts as we'll
as shade. At the proper season plant
two Or three trees in the field and build
a permanent fence about them. Fertil-
lie and cultivate we'll. The fence can
be remoeed in a few years. If intended
for horse pasture the lower limbs should
not be less than eight feet from the
ground. Never put barbed wire near a
shade tree frequented by stock. The
animal droppings about these trees cause
them to grow far more vigorously than
those not visited. Cut the top back
every two or three years, to make the
tree spreading. The shade will not
greatly retard the crops growing near.

When that illustrious day shall rise,
And all Thine armies shine
Lef,handed Suddenly.

Three years ago a young lady OF Fall
River, Mass, was hit on the left side of
the head by a falling sign as she was
walking along a street in Boston. This
was followed by q brain fever.
After some weeks she was as well in
mind and body as ever, but from q rigat.
handed person she had become 50 left.
handed that she could neither cut, sew
nor write with her right hand, but
found it easy to dc all THESE things with
her left.
Her right hand was just about as use.
full as her left had been before she was
hurt. What is strange is that, with SO
recent q change in the use of her hands,
she never makes an awkward motion,
and is as graceful in the use OF her left
hand as If she had been born lefthanded.

FARM AND GARDEN NOTES.

-
Feed your table refuse to the lavino
hens.
When leghorns want to sit thev ara
too fat
Good pullets lay when six months old,
If not too fat.
In hot weather the poultry quarters
need attention every day.
The roosts and nests should be washed
with kerosene once a week.
An open shed on the side OF the poul-
trE-house will be found convenient.
Young chickens that are in a goo1
condition will bring better prices than
matured fowls.
It is quite an item with all young
fowls to give them a good feed just be-
fore they go to roost at night.
See how the poultry seek tte3hady side
of a fence or building. How they must
suffer where there is no shady side.
Do your best TO keep the sitting hens
free from vernin; it il not pleasant to
be eaten alive while trying to do ones
duty.
Whsn confined one of the cheapest
and best green feeds that can be supplied
is lettuce; it grows quick and gives a
good yield.
Some one remarks that q deal of calcu-
lation is required to make a dollar from
poultry. The same remark applies to
any business.
Generally If matured fowls are to be
marketed the sooner they are sent to be
marketed the better, as often prices get
very low in summer
When you plant those fruit trees this
fall trim in the top to correspond with
the roots. It is a great mistake to leave
a big top and small bottom.
Gut docks and all other weeds that are
very tenacious of life in August close
down to the root. Very few can sur
vive such treatment at that season.
Pasturage is the basis of sheep hus-
banGy. It may be grass, and there be
very little grass about it, but as it is SO
are the sheep in every characteristic.
This is the whole secret OF breeds.
A flock of sheep were attacked by dogs
in Monaghan County, Ireland, with great
destruction Of life. Some that were
bitten, and some that did not show sign
OF being bitten, developed unmistakable
evidences of rabies.
The value of pure bred and registered
sheep will be apparent aud appreciated
only when the condition is kept up to
the highest notch. Otherwise all the
time aad money put into good stock is
total waste. Keep this in mind.
II is the habit OF the apple bores 10
make his way into the trunk OF the tree
Just Glow the ground. Therefore it is
a good plan to mound about each tree in
the early spring, and later. TO rake away
the earth. If they are in the tree they
can then be easily destroyed.
After q young orchard has begun to
grow attention should be gwen to the
shape which the heads assume. A SYM
metrical form can be preserved by rub
bling of the needless shoots when an inch
or two long, as this Is much easier than
to cut off limbs with a saw after they
have grown large.
When trees are first set out they are
naturally weak, and if they are placed
in the way OF q strong wind, the chances
are that many of them will be blown
down. For this reason, il is obvious
that the trees should be protected. Il
they are sheltered by a building, well
and good, but if they are in the direct
path Of the prevailing winds, a wind
break should be erected.

THE A AND GARDEN.
CHEAPEST HAY CROP.

Hungarian grass is perhaps the cheap.
est crop that can be grown for hay. The
seed may be sown as early as May, but it
loves the warm weather. On rich land.
il the seed is sown in June, or even in
July, it will yield well. II entails no
labor other than to pillow the land, har-
row it well, and sow. The cost of the
seed is but little. It is cheap crop. It
will allow of a crop of early peas or
early potatoes being taken off for market
before sowing.-Chicago Times.

PROGRESS.
1898.

There can be no question but the
time for prompt and vigorous action
on the part of Texarkana's citizens, in
behalf of their city and her present, as
well as future, welfare, has arrived.
and there can be no further delay,
without attendant danger. The city
has reached critical point in her ex-
istence, where artificial, as well as nat
ural, strength is required to assist her
to higher place on the steep and diff
cult path of progress. This assistance
can aud must be forthcoming. The
welfare Of both town and people de-
maDds it, and those upon whom the
duty Justly devolves cannot longer af-
ford to shirk it. There are now sew
eral present and prospective public
benefits awaiting to be secured by
Texarkana, among which may be
mentioned the extension Of the Tex
arkana Il TT. Smith railway, the looa-
tion here of the prospective car and
repair shopsof the Cotton Belt route,
and other manufacturing and mercan-
tile interests Of undoubted worth and
importance, When shall the good
work begin? We await reply.

YOUNG MEN.

The young men of America are
coming TO the front, in politics, as well
as in every avenue of trade and the
business professions. In many sec
tions of the country the old men are
antagonizing them, and in nearly
every instance the young men come
off victors. There should be no clash
ing between the two, as the common
good demands harmony and united
action. in order to accomplish the
best results.
In Illinois and other parts of the
Union the old men are trying to capt
ure the offices to be disposed of by
the incoming Democratic administra-
ton. This should not be. 1t is a
known fact that the young men be-
tween the ages of 21 and 40, attend to
most of the business and politics of
the country. Certainly, then, they
are entitled to due consideration, in
the distribution of the offices after
winning the magnificent victory that
they did.
AS one of the young men we favor
defering to the older men-they are
entitled to much. But if they expect
to get everything, and allow the young
men nothing, they will find them
selves mistaken. We have never
sought Office, and never expect to do
so. We only speak our sentiments as
regarding young men. "Honor to
Whom Honor is Due,n is our motto,
in this, as well as in other matters.

Taking A Lesson.

The death of Jay Gould, Americas
greatest financier and wealthiest citi-
zen, has apparently proven lesson to
other men of his class. The fact that
despite his boarded millions of hard
earned dollars, he went down to his
grave, "unwept, unhonored and un-
sung" known and respected merely as
the representative of so much gold
and silver bullion, has served as q
warning in at least one instance, that
the man who lives for self or selfish
ends alone is counted of but little
worth in this worlds reckoning of
higher human existence. The first
great convert to acknowledge the
truth of this statement, by act as well
as deed, is John ID. Rockefeller, the Gel
ebrated millionaire president of the
Standard Oil Company, who has made
a huge gift to the University of Chica-
go. The sum is supposed to be over
$2,000,000, but the exact figures are
not given out. For the last few
months the trustees of the university
have been endeavoring to persuade
Mr.. Rockefeller to give them $1,000
600 in order to carry out some OF
their cherished plans. The New York
capitalist objected to giving that sum
outright but submitted a proposition
for the vast sum to be given, proyid
ing certain plans which he suggested
were carried out This proposition
was submitted to the directors today
One such deed as the above generou'
action appears to be will do more tt
endear the giver's name to all man
kind and perpetuate his memory il
the hearts of the American people at
ter death, than the accumulation Otter
such fortunes as either he or ia.
Gould is even supposed to have pos

ranged by the Boston Young Mems
Christian Association for the current
season.
The Club, which ut one time was

part has a distinct interest. Taken as
a whole, or individually, the Club
made fine impression.
The above favorable mention ofthls
most excellent musical organization
was made by the Boston Transcript, a
very competent musical critic. The
Club will render one of their delight
ful concerts in this city, on Thursday
Jan. 9TH, under the auspices OF the
