CARE OF CREAM.

The following directions for the
care of cream are taken from circu-
lar distributed by the Ontario College
The cream should be kept sweet I'M
til twenty-four hours before churning
by keeping cool either in the creamer
box OF III cool cellar. Get cream
vessel tin is preferably large enough
to hold the cream for whole churn-
ing. IL there is not sufficient for a
churning from one szimming, stir the
cream thoroughly at every addition of
fresh cream.
In summer warm the cream to sixty
three or sixty-five degrees twentyfour
hours before you wish TO churn, and it
will be about the right degree of sour
ness or ripeness in that time, but, as
soon as it becomes slightly thickened
and sour, churn it. 1t is not advisa-
able to allow the cream to become
warmer than sixtythree degrees in
warm weather In winter the ripen-
ing temperature will be from sixty
four to seventy degrees. In case the
cream does not sour properly in
twenty-four hours, it is good plan to
add small quantity (about two per
cent. of sour milk or sour cream to
act as q starter.
All changes in cream should be eff
fected gradually. Never add hot OF
very cold water directly to the cream
to warm or cool it. To effect this, sci
the cream vessel in another vessel con.
tanning warm or cold water, and stil
the cream all the time it is being
warmed or cooled. Do not allow the
milk or cream to freeze. Ii the butter
is white, small amount of good but
ter color may be added to the cream
just before commencing to churn.

a1enEs,. 1Y His pef5.

Meinrad, famous Swiss saint, who
fourished in the ninth century, led a
hermit's life in cell in Einsiedeln,
where he was often visited for advice
and help. The companions of his
solitude were two tame ravens, to
which he was much attached In the
year S6l the saint was murdered In
his cell by some men inspired by
greed of gold, which they supposed
the poor man to possess. After the
foul deed they fed toward Zurich,

two ravens. There certain pilgrims
identified the birds, and inquiries
having been made at once, the muir.
derers were arrested and punished,
The saints cell remained untenanted
for nearly fifty years, but was rebuilt
of stone about century afterward,
and some two hundred years later the
great convent of Einsiedeln. still the
richest aud most frequented In
Switzerland, arose on the spot where

BLACK TEETH IN SWINE.

Symptoms of black teeth in swine
are many, writes correspondent.
loss Of appetite with continual squeal-
ing and stunted growth are the first
symptoms with some pigs. have a
pig which had good appetite, grew
fat and didn't squeal, except when
hungry, that had black teeth. ! de-
tected them by a weakness in his hind
legs and an enlargement of the joints.
| have seen heavy hogs with their hind
legs nearly ruined by having black
teeth. We knock OF pulled out
these teeth; then the legs soon get
straight and strong and the hog does

ut one time five pigs that had lost the
use of their hind legs and were stunted
in growth. He became disguised with
the bad condition of these pigs and
shot them. He afterward learned that
black teeth caused the trouble. Black
teeth are found on both upper and
lower Jaw, front. These teeth are
sometimes brown instead of black.
The only remedy that I know of for
black teeth is to rid the swine of them,
and the sooner the better, as no hog

them long. As far as my experience
goes black teeth come only once, and

SENATE PAGES.


Bright Lads Who Get Good Pay and Have
Eesy work.
OF all the ltG appointments under
the rgeant-at-arns of the United
States Senate, those of the pages only
can be said to be nonpolitical. With
the beginning of the extra session
several OF the pages win go out of of
fee owing TO the fact that they have
Jeached the age limit No boy can
be appointed page of the senate
who is not II years OF age, and no
boy can continue'as a page who is Is
years of age at the BEGINNING of a
session of Congress. it is a lucrative
position, and few Of the boys are not
sorry when their term has ended.
Usually four oil the boys who are
graduated from the pages position at
the beginning OF q session are APP
pointed riding pages. Their selee-
tion depends upon their records for
efficiency and faithfulness. The page
on the floor OF The Senate draws So. 80
a day during the session of Congress.
The riding page receives 81. so day
che year round and has horse to
ride. His duties keep him out OF
doors a great part Of the time, car
rying messages between the Capitol
and the departments. The position
is considered more desirable than
that of page. Speaking Of their
work the Washington Star says: "Fhe
pages life is a peasant one. He
must be on duty at O'Clock each
/, morning, but the serious business OF
the day does not begin until noon,
when the Senate meets. Before that
time he arrangcs the. files OF the Con-
gresSional Record and the bills and
reports on the desks OF the Senators,
who have been assigned to him.
These are sixteen pages and eighty
eight Senators, 50 ne of the pages

hours are not all working hours.
There is q gymnasium in the base
ment of the Capitol furnished spe-
cially for their use. They exercise
their arms and their chests there
every morning; their legs get enough

TAKING GAZE or THEIR COAL.
Russian War Ships Use Sails Exclusively
Unless in a Hurry.

RUSSIAN War Ships Use Sails Exclusively
Unless in Hurry.
People who have been accustomed
TO see in the new ships Of the United
States navy the almost entire alb.
sence OF masts and spars have prob
aply, In many instances, been sur
prlsed at the presence of tall masts
and immense sail spreads on the Rus
sian ships recently In New York, says
The Times. The Russians make ex-
sensive use Of sails. The absence Of
russian coaling stations at various
. points OF the world makes it impera-
tive that the Russian ships husband
their coal supply TO encourage the
commanders OF Russian war ships to
use as little coal as possible, the Rus
sian ministry OF marine, it Is said,
makes provision for the distribution
IN money among the officers and men
or war ships Of certain percentage
or the value OF the coal saved. This
allowance goes to the messes of the
offlcers and seamen. American naval
officers have noted on more than one
occasion, on passing Russian war
SHIPS at sea, that the latter were
nearly always under full sail. The
D1mitri Donskoi, which visited New
York recently, is reported to have
sailed from the Siberian coast to the
west coast of Europe. The Rynda
sailed from Cronstadt to Monteyideo.
The Russians resort to coal only when
entering and leaving ports and when
going into action, or when they want
to make rapid passage. The Rus
sian ships while in American waters
had no occasion to use dry docks.
The two Italian cruisers, Giovanni
Bausan and Dagoli, being unsheathed
vessels, were compelled to use dry
docks while here. Russian war
ships when departing from Russian
port are fitted out with view Of
remaining at sea, if necessary, for
three years without making port.
With this view even the most adj
vanced types Of many of Russias
new ironclads are fitted with masts
and spars and carry, nearly all of
them, the studding sail gear SO
familiar thirty years ago on fast
American clipper ships.

The right definition of economy is

but rather the right use of everything
to make it most beneficial In this
sense it is entirely proper for good

BEES AND HONEY.

Gleanings in Bee Culture recon-
mends mixture of white lead and
zinc for painting beehives, putting on
first q coat of lead as primer, then
mixing lead and zinc finish the paint
ing. This paint will not fake off as
either lead or zinc will do fused sepa-
rately.
It requires about 5000 bees to make
q pound weight. Some tests are re-
ported by Professor Rooms in the Clean
lngs, in which by careful estimates the
number of bees varied from 4141 to
1865. The average of these figures
was 1882 Swarms of bees vary from
four to nine pounds, but are usually
between four and five pounds, or be-
tween 20, and 5000 bees.
Bees do not rob while honey is
plentiful. They will not rob other
bees during a temporary shutdown of
work from storm or other cause. They
like a ebay Off as humans do, but
after twenty-four hours they are inn
patient to go to work. If there is no
honey for them to gather there will be
liability that they will take to rob
bling.
A correspondent of Gleanings in
Bee Culture does not believe that
robbing bees permanently retain this
bad habit. The saying "once robber
always a robber" has no truth in it.
If honey flowers become plentiful the
robber bees will go to work again.
But it must be added that when rob-
bers once get the notion of attacking
weak hive it had better be destroyed,
as it is nearly impossible to keep them
from it thereafter.
