Make Better Butter.

An exchange makes the sensible sug.
gestion that if any dairyman will bear
in mind that the best butter pays a
profit and the poorest insures a loss,
they will have one large foundation
stone of dairy economy established.
The average grade just pays the cost of
production; the poorer grades fall be-
low, and the better grades rise above.
The profit accrues from the better
grades of butter produced from the bet
ter grades of cows. For while it is en-.
tirely practicable to always make a
high grade butter from low grade
COW, it is not possible to secure profit,
because of the small quantity. Neither
can a profit be obtained by making
large quantities of poor butter. First
we need good cow, then give the COW
and her milk good care, and success ID
certain. There is comfort in the fact
that it is just as easy to make good but
ter by good method; as to make poor
butter by the ''old granny" methods,
in fact it is very much easier and ten
times more satisfactory.

Kate Lawson and Olive Chadwick
were cousins living in adjoining towns.
Their fathers were ordinary farmers
who just about made both ends

sequently when a well-to-do distant
relative offered to pay Kate's and
Olives tuition and board through a
well-lsnown women's college, there
was great rejoicing in both families.
Olive made great inroad in her

self out in the fashionable attire she
deemed indispensable for such place.
Then, it seemed so natural to speak in
a familiar suggestive manner of John
Wetherbee, her rich cousin. Without
saying so outright, or really meaning
to DO so, she conveyed by countless lit
tie ways, the impression that her par
ents were well-to-do.
When she discovered that her cousin
Kate had made no such elaborate prep
arations, and that she was trying to
earn her incidental expenses by doing
mending and caring for the rooms, etc,
Of her schoolmates, she expressed her
displeasure and shame. Kate then
ceased to be intimate with her and
never told Of their relationship.
One vacation May Ellis, wealthy
bankers daughter, invited Olive to
spend week at her beautiful home.
Olive thought she must have elegant
dresses for such an occasion, and more
of her fathers hard-earned money was
spent Olive never invited May to visit
her. "After her elegant home, our
house would seem like shanty," she
thought, bitterly.
Olive soon learned, with much sur
prise, that Kate, also, was visiting
May. But her surprise knew no bounds
when she learned, shortly afterwards,
that Kate had actually invited May to
her plain country home.

The school days closed at last, and

quently happens that when township
councils order the construction of Gull
verts under roadways the pipes are
brought on the ground, the contract is
let to the lowest bidder, who invariably
has no experience in such work; and the
ditch is dug to the required depth to
carry the water from the channel
above, and the workmen place the
pipes, maybe with the hub down grade
or in some cases the center of the ditch
slightly lower than the outlet, and in
this slovenly way results are very
unsatisfactory and certainly an unfair
and unjust test.
The bottom of the trench should be
rounded out to fit as. nearly as possible
the curve of the pipe from the lower
surface up to the horizontal center
line; then cut little depressions in the
bottom of the trench to fit the sockets
so that when the pipe is laid its entire
lower surface from end to end will rest
solidly on the ground. If the ground is
soft or sandy this cannot be done but the
same result may. be obtained by care.

abutments are too expensive q good and
cheap substitute can be made Of plank
by setting them on end, deep enough in
the ground to hold them in place and
fitting them carefully about the pipe, or
still better by setting posts on each
side Of the pipe and spiking the planks
on horizontally. When planks and
posts are used it is advisable to set
them with considerable inclination to-
wards the road-bed to prevent the
pressure of the embankment from
crowding the planks outward. The
joints of the pipe should be put together
with good cement, care being taken
that the inside Of each joint is scrsped
ont when cemented, in order that no

expansion of the water when freezing
is liable to burst the pipe if the water
rises in it more than enough to half
fill it.
When required, two or more pipes
may be laid side by side, should the
capacity of one not be sufficient, or, if
in case of altered circumstances the ca
pacity of the culvert may require after
time to be increased, additional pipes
may be laid to meet the increased de.
mand. In such cases the pipes should
be placed far enough apart to secure a

In order to prevent the lodgment of the
debris in culvert or filling with wa
ter, or ice in winter, a culvert should
be built with a low fall, the pipe should
be laid with the hub or tlange up grade
or towards the inlet. When this is
done properly it is matter of no con-
sequence how high the bank is above
the pipe for it cannot be broken by the
weight of the earth. If the bank is
solid and not likely to cave or slide,
the end Of the pipes will not require to

ii some sort should be made to re-
ceive the end of the tile and the foun-
dation of this should extend far
enough into the ground to be below
the influence of frost, as otherwise
the alternate heaving and settling
might throw the end of the pipe out of
position.
These abutments should extend up
high enough to protect the bank at

MILK AND BUTTER.
Cows That Produced 1000 Pounds Fac
In Year,

Cows That Produced 1000 Pounds Each
In Year.
The agricultural bulletin for May,
issued from the Cornell university agri.
cultural experiment station, contains
an article by Henry II. Wing showing
the yield of milk and butter that may
be obtained from cows. The following
is taken from the paper: Beginning
January Is, 1892, and ended January
IA, 1898, a record of the amount fed and
the amount produced by each individ.
ual COW In the university herd has been
kept The food was weighed separate.
ly for each COW at each feeding and
charged 10 the animal consuming it.
The milk was weighed at each milking
and credited to the animal producing
it. Once each week a sample of an
equal amount Of nights and mornings
milk was taken from each COW. The
fat in these samples of mixed milk was
determined by DR.. Babcock's centrif.
ugal method, and this percentage null.
tiplied by the number Of pounds of fat
produced during the week. The uni.
versity herd during the time of the ex-
pertinent contained twenty COWS. II
has been developed from the ordinary
stock of the neighborhood by the use
of thoroughbred bulls. and rigid selec.
ton of the best heifer calves. The
year previous the yield of the cows
upon the farm had been a little more
than 5000 pounds per cow The de-
scendants of these same cows produced
in 1892 more than 1000 pounds per COW.
Special animals were not selected for
this experiment; every cow in the herd
without exception was taken. II was
thought that by doing this average re,
suits of more value would be obtained
than as tn ough most of the better indi.
viduals were selected for the special
purpose and few of the poorer ones
discarded. A large number OF the
cows were young, four were three-year-
olds and four heifers with their first
calves; three of the latter were under
two years old at the beginning of the
experiment.

seem to us to warrant the following
conclusions:
First. With fairly good herd, care
fully fed and kept, milk can be pro.
duced for sixty-fve cents per hundred
weight and fat for sixteen cents pei
pound for the cost of food consumed.
Second. That individuals of the
same breed vary more widely in milk
and butter production than do the
breeds themselves.
Third. The larger animals con
sumed less pounds of dry matter pei
1000 pounds of live weight per day
than did the smaller animals.
Fourth. That in general the bes'
yields of fat We're obtained from COW.
that gave at least fairly large flow o.
milk.
Fifth. In general, the cows consum
ing the most food produced both mill
and fat at the lowest rate.
Sixth. For the production of milk anC
fat there is no food so cheap as goot
pasture grass.
