Farm Notes.
To Get Good Cows.

1t should be remembered that
specialized and added qualities de-
sired cannot be fed into the COW in
one year or one generation. Just
here is where there is much false
reasoning and more erroneous prac-
tice. If food is potent it is said that
all we have to do is to increase the
quantity and improve the quality and
the problem is Immediately solved
But it is never solved in that way,
and can be only by steady, judicious
increase of food, with improvement
in its quality through several, some
times many generations. And
whether we start from poor or a
good animal, the problem of perma-
nent improvement must always be
solved by a steady, uniform effort,
and not by spasmodic attempts.
No man but dolt would start
with the poorer animal when the
better one could be secured at rea-
sonable cost; he would be still more
unwise if he did not preserve those
animals which he deemed best. But
while doing this it must be kept in
mind that selection is but opportun-
ity to secure what has already been
produced. You cannot run a dairy
on selection. Pedigrees are good,
but they too will not run dairy
1t must be run with animals that can
eat, digest and assimilate large
amounts of food and economically
turn it into milk solids.
If the ancestors of these animals
which do the profitable work of the
dairy were alike efficient then so
much the better Since we have not
these animals at hand in sufficient
numbers for all the dairies, then we
must breed them, and this is COM
paratively easy task if a few simple
rules are intelligently followed. -
New England Farmer.

Salt Rising Bread.

A Southern housekeeper makes
this kind of bread In the following
manner:
Overnight prepare a leaven by
pouring cup of boiling milk over
two tablespoons of corn meal. Mix
thoroughly and place in warm
spot to rise. When the leaven has
risen pour into suitable vessel a
cup of sweet milk, a heaping table
spoon of sugar, pinch of salt and a
cup of boiling water. Stir in flour
sufficient to make thick batter and
then add the leaven, which thins the
yeast to proper consistency. Place
the vessel of yeast into pot of warm
water, which must be kept warm.
The yeast will rise ordinarily, in an
hour When the yeast has risen suf-
ficiently, add as much warm water
as is desired, teaspoon of salt, a
tablespoon of lard, and mix into
dough that is well kneaded, but
not too stiff. Put into warm place
to rise, and when risen, bake with a
good, steady fire until the bread
leaves the pan. 1t is well to note
l. That the leaven must be made
fresh each time the bread is made.
2. That the leaven is treated exactly
as one would cup of milk that she
wished to clabber, and if allowed to
get too hot it acquires an unpleasant
odor that will be impaired to the
bread. 3. That too much salt added
to the yeast will prevent it's rising.
4. That thorough beating of the
leaven and of the yeast is essential.
5. That it is necessary to keep the
yeast and rising dough warm.

THINKSHOP ENLARGED.
knowledge and Skill VIII Pay on the Farm
ANY Education iR a Haln

Any Education Is n Help
Ii of the right sort, we believe
they will pay here, all things consid-
cred, as well as elsewhere on the
average. They will not make mil
lionaires here, but money is not the
chief end of man. They will give
health, competence, real lndepend-
ence and the best chances to rear
strong, pure, self reliant sons and
daughters. AS we run over in mind
the list of those farmers among our
acquaintances all over the United
States who are, in these respects,
really most successful, we find them
all possessed of far better education
and greater skill than the average.
Most of them have been through
academy, high school or college.
Some of them have such natural
hardness, dexterity and ingenuity,
that they could by few weeks prac-
tice be successful journeymen at
many of our modern trades. The
education they have had no direct
bearing upon farming, but any edu.
cation expands the mind, enlarges
the thinkshop, and fits one to sue
ceed better in any calling he may
enter We think they would have
been more successful if they had had
chance to study that sisterhood of
biological sciences that so intimately
concern agriculture; but they are
much helped by the algebra, geome-
try, physics, and chemistry found in
our high schools and colleges.

Don't Attempt Too Much

1t is often the case that in our anx-
iety to do good years work we
make the mistake OF trying to culti-
vate more land than we can attend
to as it should be, which reduces our
yield and increases the labor of culti-
walton.
Much is written in regard to the
best crops to raise but no rule will
apply to all conditions. One may
have the warm and early land just
fitted for early vegetables while
another can with certainty depend
on good crop of hay by reason of a
moist and heavy soil If we know
what crops are best adapted to differ
ent soils and what is needed as fer
tilizers we have taken the first step
toward success.
