Dairy and Creamery.

The milk producer, the cheese and
butter factory man and the private dali
ryman are no enemies. They are the
best of friends; their interests are one.
The only trouble is they do not always
realize this fact.
The cause of abortion in dairy cows is
ascribed by DR.. Salmon to want of clean
Illness in many cases. The germ of dis
ease and putrefaction are easily spread.
Wherever the epidemic starts in among
herd of cows the only safe way is to
disinfect all the premises and burn or
bury many feet deep whatever can de-
cay or spread contagion.
A common hay barn can be turned
easily into silo. Line with double
boarding, with paper between or with
single lining tightly fitted by tongue
and groove. The bottom and sides must
be alright wherever the silage touches
them.

good estimate.

DIR. WILLIAM T. JENKINS.

Then serious work on the baggage
begins, sometimes with sulphur, but of
late generally with steam. The cloth
ing and bedding are hung up in an air
tight room and steam turned on till the
temperature in there is judged to be at
$50 dogs. That cooks the life out of
the germs. Sulphur is generally used
in the Storage itself. Every box and
bale and package is opened and the con-
tents spread out. The passengers in
their cleanest clothes retire, and every
door and crevice is closed. Meanwhile
iron pots Of hot Goals are placed, sui
phur having been laid on each to the
amount of three pounds to every 1000
cubic feet of space. By the time the
workers can get out the sulphur begins
to blaze and for hours that steerage is
a very good imitation of Tophet.
Sometimes all the woodwork is washed
with solution of corrosive sublimate.
Russian baggage is always fumigated
and Russian passengers scrutinized with
particular care. Germans require less
care and French least of all, as the
French port authorities allow none to
sail who have not clean bills of health.
If the vessel is from an infected port
then the passengers lot is hard indeed.
They must go to quarantine and remain
till every possibility of disease develop
ing is passed, their chief amusement be-
ing to look up through the romantic
narrows to the spires Of the city for
which they are longing.
Health Officer Jenkins is confident Of
his ability to stop the cholera if it comes
by that way, and the fact that vessel
with many cholera cases on board ar
rived in August, 1887, and that it was
promptly stamped out" as the phrase
goes, is encouraging. He has recently
inspected the hospitals, carefully ar
ranged all the disinfecting machinery,
and literally put his quarantine on war

A Historic Palace Gone.

One by one the historic buildings of
France are disappearing. The last of
famous royal palace was seen recently
when the materials of the ruined Cha
teau of st. Cloud were sold by auction.
For nearly three centuries this palace
has been linked intimately with French
history, since Cardinal Mazarin built
the stately chateau on the site of the
small house where Henri III was assas-
sinated by the fanatical monk, Jacques
Clement. The various Dukes of Orleans
lived there until 1882, when the chateau
became Marie Antoinette's residence.
At st. Cloud Napoleon the Great was
nominated first consul after he had dis
solved the council of five hundred in the
orangery; there Charles x signed the
ordinances which produced the July
revolution and cost him his throne, and
there the third Napoleon and his en-
press held their court and the boy prince
imperial built his toy railway in the gar
dens. The palace met its fate from
shell in the Franco-P russian war, and
now, after twenty-five years ruin, even
the fragments are to disappear within
the next four months. A Paris builder
bought the ruins for $500, the state re-
serving the right to any coins or jewelry
found during the removal.

Dehorning Law Suit.

Some time since a humane society
suit was entered against E. E. Hazen,
Beaver county, Pa, for cruelty in de-
horning cattle. it being held that the de-
PENDANT was guilty of violation of law
in this treatment of his herd. The case
has been one of special interest and has
attracted widespread attention, both be-
cause of its intrinsic Importance and the
bearing it would necessarily have on the
future of dehorning in this state. The
trial came to an end last week in vic
tory for the defendant, the judge hold
ing that the intention evidently was to
benefit the cattle; that the charge of
cruel and wanton treatment could not
be sustained by the evidence produced.

COPENHAGEN MILK SUPPLY.
a Milk Distributing System That Is Bet
ter Than Ours.

MILK Distributing System That Is Bet
ter Than Ours.
The Copenhagen Milk Supply company
was organized about twelve years ago by
Mr.. G. Busch, who saw the evils of the
prevailing method and wanted something
better. Mr.. Busch succeeded in inter-
esting with him number of distin-
guished medical men and savants, and
a company was formed, with capital
of $4,000. Three of the gentlemen
agreed to serve as an independent COM
mittee, without remuneration and with
no monetary interest in the concern
When the profits on stock reached
dividend Of per cent, all amounts
over that were given to the consumers
by reducing the price of milk to them.
The company does not attempt to give
cheap or cheaper. but better milk, and
to bring this about they hedge its pro-
duction with every possible safeguard.
To begin with they make contracts for
milk only with farmers having healthy
herds, and they pay the highest price,
thus making it an object for the con-
tractor to retain the business. All milk
is analysed regularly to see that it
comes up to the required standard.
Milk must be cooled Immediately to
about 40 degs. Fair. after milking, and
if at a temperature above so dogs. when
it reaches the company it is rejected and
sold elsewhere. Competent veterinari-
ans inspect all the COWS in every dairy
once in two weeks; also the condition Of
stables, etc.
A competent man is regularly sent out
to inspect the management of the dairy
farms, the quality of the fodder, the
cooling apparatus, the cleanliness of
methods, etc. An experienced dairyman
is also sent to visit all the farms, to see
that the milking is properly done and
that cleanliness prevails during the
process. When the milk reaches the
quarters of the company it is all filtered
before being sold.
Every producer is pledged to report
Immediately any case of infectious
disease on his farm or in the families Of
any of his employees. To insure this
the company agrees to buy his milk at
the same price if he reports promptly
not at all if he delays. The milk in such
cases is otherwise disposed of-never
comes in contact with that from the
other diaries. The health of the en-
ployees in the city is looked after with
the same care. When infectious
disease appears in the families of any Of
the city employees they are suspended
from work, but receive their salaries, so
that no incentive to deceive can exist.
The original capital was about $1,000,
and it has gradually been increased as
the business has grown, until it is now
$50, 900, with double that amount in
vested. At first the business did not
pay, but today it is a sound mercantile
enterprise, paying fair returns. Rural

Rye for Fall Pasture.

Those who have had experience report
that if rye be sown early in September
under fair conditions it will furnish a
very considerable amount of feed this
fall, and starting early in the spring
will afford pasture earlier than the blue
grass lands. After it is pastured a few
weeks in spring, if the stock is removed
it will run up to seed and give fair
crop of grain. Of course where so much
is expected the ground must be rich and
the season favorable. Rye is one of the
very best grain crops with which to get
good catch of clover. The prudent
stockman is always watching for an OPP
portunity to furnish fresh bite for his
animals. Breeders Gazette.
