GLOBULES AND BUTTER.

We notice that the Farmers Re-
view, quoting John F. Hall, of Eng
land, makes him ask the following
questions relative to the claims Of
the chemical test and the churn for
determining the nature OF milk tor
butter making: This principle may
be briefly stated in two questions,
which we address particularly to
those who advocate chemical test.
1. Is it not fact that the size OF he
fat globule is found to vary consider
ably in the milk of the several breeds
OF dairy cattle? 2. Do not these
variations in size exert a material
influence upon the nature of the
milk for butter making?" These
may be very important questions to
an Englshman, but an American of
the present day fails to see any
Importance in them. We do not
bother any longer about the size of
the globule The small one seems to
get there just about as quickly as the
large one, while one thing is certain,
and that is, there is no difference in
the quality of the butter made from
each. What troubles the gravity
systems milk setting is the time the
COW has been in milk, and not the
size of her globule. 1t was once
thought that big globules made the
best butter and came earliest to the
top, but, even if they did, what mat
tiers it now. With the improved
separator, or the old one, for the mat
ter of that, all of the cream is thrown
out of the milk without delay, and if
you happen to be of an advanced
way of thinking here is the &C
cumulator that will not bother with
the cream globules at all, but take
the butter Immediately out of the
milk. all of it, and of the finest quail
ty. What is the use of all this bother
about the churn and the chemical
test at the Columbian Worlds Fair.
Why not take the butter Immediately
from the milk instead of allowing
part of the fat to get away in the
skim milk and part of it in the butter
milk This looks to us like borrow
ing trouble while the open country
lies straight before you American

dust with plaster of Paris. a.
Drop twelve inches apart in the row,
one piece to the hill. Cover six
inches deep. 81 Wait till up, and
cover up again. CO. When up, give
four good workings, one each week !;
last one just when coming IN bios

HORSE TALK.

The growing of colts would be
feasible and profitable on many a
farm where beef is only produced at
a loss. Pound for pound horse flesh
costs but little more than beef when
times much.
If the little foal gets weak it is
hard to revive it.
II the stable be dark it may affect
the eyes of the horses.
Cultivate a CHEEKY way Of speaking
to your horse Some horses that
are cross and lazy, because growled
at and punched in the ribs until sour
and discouraged, will prick forward
their ears, and follow them in a
hearty glad manner, that is surpris-
ing, when they are kindly and en-
couragingly urged.
How much of his mess do the rats
get?
Don't feed the horses between
meals. 1t makes them uneasy and
dissatisfied, besides doing them no
good.
Cleats on stall partitions at times
prove dangerous. A horse in strug-
ling to rise has sometimes caught the
toes Of his hind shoes on them and
forced himself towards the manger
SO far as to get cast. Beveled rips
nailed in the angles will make foot
hold impossible.
Find some way of keeping the
horses busy all winter. Thus only
will they keep sound and be ready
for hard spring work when it comes.
Don't give him a long draft of ice
water. good drink from the well
is warmer and safer.
Give the horses a pinch of sifted
ashes now and then,-and salt al
ways. 4 roll fastened in the stall is
best.
Fetlocks may catch and hold mud
and ice and be harder to clean than
clipped ankles, but certainly they
keep off wind and prevent direct
contact of ice with the skin, there
fore don't bare the ankles. If frozen
in tags they may be cleaned and
dried quickly by dipping in hot
water and saving with an old sack.
1t is easier and more speedy than
rubbing. The heat produced will
leave the fetlocks dry.
Straps crack in swapping weather
unless kept soft with OIL An occa-
sional rubbing with harness backing
may improve the appearance, but
does not lengthen the life Farm

A STRONG AND CHEAP FENCE

forated with holes every two inches

YOUR ground IA feet apart for posts,
beginning at corner of field. Have
anchor posts well braced (inside

securely set for use in stretching
bands all along the line. Then begin
putting up the two bands, and carry
them on a few posts distant in
advance; now set your two inter-
mediate posts Tin the dug holes) and

Each picket is prepared by driving a
galvanized wire nail a certain distance
intended for the top. This is done
to gauge and very rapidly. This nail
is put through the hole on upper

driven afterwards. One can do this
very quickly; the upper nail being

HOW TO KILL WITCHGRAS IS.

l noticed some time ago an inquiry
in regard to witchgrass. | have had
some experience with it which l am
willing to give for what it is worth.
Some twenty years ago l began
breaking my land shallow (for con-
venience sake), ploughing from two
and one-half to three inches deep. just
running the plough under the grass
roots and turning it over as fiat as
possible, and let it remain thus, ex-
posing the roots to the action of the
sun. which is the only thing that will
injure witchgrass roots. Hoeing and
chopping rather increases its growth
than otherwise. | have pursued this
method continuously and find the
witchgrass very much diminished,
and can attribute it to nothing else
1t is q slow process, but better than
none. l let the breaking remain I'M
til the next spring before ploughing
again, and the action of the sun and
frost has a depressing effect on the
roots. | know of nothing else under
the heavens that Wilt Montpelier

TREATMENT OF CHILDREN.

We were entertained while ago
by Hon. S. A. Andrews, superinten-
dent of the Vermont Reform school
at Vergennes. He has about one
hundred children in his care, and 1t
did US good to see him exhibit the
mastery love of his great heart. He
rules by that great all conquering
power, Love, yet his discipline is as
nearly perfect as can well be. AS we
were in his private office, one little
tot after another came in on different
errands, and showed every mark of
love and respect, but great degree
of courtesy and obedience. At last
the great watch dog came bounding
into the Office and jumped up to Mr..
Andrews in great delight.
HE is pleased to see you" said one
little boy.
Who wouldn't be' said another,
and this betrays the whole character
of the man who governs so wisely at
our institution al Vergennes.
The day following our arrival, Mr.
Andrews went out into the city and
came back with packages of various
sizes. Soon bright little girl of
eleven years came in, and the super
intendent said,
"Why, hellol How do you do this
morning, my little one ?"
Then after few moments CONVEX
sation, he said:
Il went down street this morning
and saw this" taking up small
box, and could not think of any one
for whom it was intended save you"
The little girls eyes opened wide
as she waited in childlike suspense
as Mr.. Andrews slowly opened the
box.
"O-o-o-o!" was all the dear little
one could say, as she beheld a set Of
toy dishes all her own. The writer's
eyes filled as he saw her delight She
just clasped her pretty white hands
and modestly looked at her little
treasures.
After she left the office. Mr. An
drews said:
You see. Mr.. Myers, these children
are not unlike other chi 1ren," and it
is true, neither are the young men and
women in our prisons unlike other
men and women; they simply need
training in Christian truth and thou
sands will become honest citizens

after over two months trial know it is. The
