Dairy NoStrums.

The actual value Of a box Of the So
called black pepsin is only a few cents,
says Farmers Bulletin, No u. issued
by the department of agriculture. and
therefore the enormous profits which are
made in its manufacture and sale at
$3.50 a box can well be imag ined. It is
not believed that any further exposition
Of this bare-faced fraud is necessary.
We have made an attempt to obtain
samples of all the various compounds
which are sold for producing the eff
fects described There are MANY of
them. however. which we are not able
10 get. Farmers can rest assured that
any substance which is presented to
them for the purpose of increasing. the
yield Of butter above that of the normal
belongs to some such class of fraud as
has been exposed in this bulletin
The proper way for increasing the
yield Of butter is to secure a breed of
cows giving milk with a high content
or butter Tat, providing the animals
proper nourishment and keeping them
in clean and healthy condition. The
proper treatment Of a herd of cows. to-
gether with neatness in the dairy, not
only will give an increased yield of
butter, but viii also enable the pro-
Queer to get an increased price.
The best method of making good
and sweet butter in large quantities is
careful selection of cows and careful
feeding and care in the dairy. The
proper attention to neatness and the
sterilization of the vessels used about
the dairy viii secure the growth of a
ferment which properly ripens the
cream and excludes other fern1ents
which produce all kinds Of injurious
changes in the milk. All vessels used in
the dairy should be subjected every day
for some time to the temperature Of
boiling water, to absolutely exclude all
putrescent bodies and Preventative
processes from the dairy. save those
which are necessary 10 the normal ripen-
Ing Of the cream. The farmer who at
tends TO these details Will have no oc-
casion 10 invest his money in fraudu-
lent nostrums for increasing the product
OF his dairy and the magnitude Of his
profits
The Indiana State sentinel. [volume] (Indianapolis) 1868-1895, 1893-08-02

Two or three years ago. when the price
of farm products was under the full
Roadway of its decline, an old farmer
was asked what he was doing. Keep
ing close to the shore" was the answer.
Just now. when business men are feeling
their way along with care, taking no
unnecessary risks and pretty well salts
fled TO hold their own until the chances
for a senseIess panic have passed away,
it is a good time for farmers to adopt
the plan of the old farmer and cease
spreading their operations over too much
ground. Some farmers are making mon
ey every year, but as a rule they do not
belong to the class that is reaching out
for more land or trying to operate on a
large scale.
Farm labor is comparatively high. and
the price of farm products, notably
wheat. cattle and wool is very low. II
never pays TO slight our work and the
cultivation of a big acreage necessarily
calls for a big outlay Of money, unless
the soil is in prime condition and all
else is favorable. When profits are large
one can till rather thin or wet land. or
increase their acreage by renting, and
have assurance Of profit from the ex-
ira work. Just now it is better to cut
down expenses by combining most of the
effort to the land that is in good con-
dition and let the rest be improving
under a system of green manuring. 1t
is not a good time to make new ventures
on an extensive scale, or to involve ones
self needlessly
When keeping close to shore" the
good farmer viii depend upon the virtue
Of saving fully as much as that OF max
ing. There is nothing more difficult
than stopping wastes. Little losses here
and there amount TO a great deal within
year. How trite this may sound, fell
low farmers. but why do we permit
these sources Of loss to remain? The
useless horse we do not sell because
prices are low, the cribs that are not
rat-prOOf, the wasting manure that is
needed on land. the implements that are
rusting and becoming weather-beaten in
barnyards and fence cOrners-all these
are reducing the incomes of many farm
ers- and there is no better time than the
present TO put the farm on a business
footing. That which does not pay must
be discarded That way which brings
poor results must be changed.
Ali classes are inclined TO think that
their own lot IS the least desirable.
When business men are anxious, fearing
a sacrifice Of their property, we may do
well to consider the safety of our occu-
patton. PaniCs may come and go, but
the farmer who keeps close to shore is
absolutely safe. His capital is in his
farm. and the excitements of money
centers affect its value very little. Pro-
fits are small. but they may be made
pretty sure if we tend more and more
TO intensive rather than extensive farm
ing. He that tilleth the soil shall have
plenty of bread" said Solomon. Let us
have a less unequal tariff and fewer
bounties Of all kinds and the farmers
by keeping close to shore" can weather
all the financial storms that brew. II
is a good time to go slow.

Future of the Horse Breeder.

A writer i'm the American Dairyman
thinks that the future Of the horse
breeder is a matter Of moment at this
time. The advent Of electricity as a
motor for surface cars is displacing large
bodies OF horses that were formerly
used for such purposes. To this we
must add roads that are using and are
about to adopt cables. These throw on
the market a large contingent OF ami
mails. The presence of such a volume
of horses, far in excess of the needs of
buyers. ruins prices The bicycle is
another factor that is replacing the
horse in some degree. Its extended use
in the near future Will enlarge this very
materially. Yet with this decreased de-
mand the supply does not Indicate
diminution. The breeder seems to be in
tent on the production of that class of
horse in largest quantity for which
there is least inquiry. The demand
which the surface railroads created for
horses while they depended on them for
motive power is rapidly passing away
in every section Of the country. The
class of animal. suited for that work will
gradually disappear. Under these
changed conditions we believe the breed
ers would do wisely if they paused long
enough to learn the demands of the
horse market Of the immediate future.
That these would be circumscribed is
evident when the causes we have men,
toned are recalled. OF course, the
farmer will breed the horse that best
meets his requirements, but the breeder
must await the settling of the market
that it may formulate the. classes of
horses that are most profitable for him
to breed and sell.

of 1000 900 900 is hazarded. Wheat is
so very low and stock hogs SO scarce ap-
parently that a high price is not now
anticipated, and old corn is not COM
handing the price many anticipated last
fall Those who have the hogs will find
the best market for their corn on the
farm this year. Still, in line with what
was said in this department recently,
we caution our readers not to pay any
excessive price for stock hogs, as the
prices of last year cannot reasonably
be looked for again. Good prices should
be obtained, but with all the shortage
in pigs, enough remain TO supply the re-
quirements in view of the very low price
of cattle and sheep.

White hellebore busted on will kill them.

A correspondent of the National Stock
man says:
1T is the aim of every farmer to
have pasture for his teams during corn
blowing and harvesting. This pasture
should always be good, the best found
on the farm. The horses will feed be-
fore they rest and it is not desirable
that they put in the whole night feed
ing and come To the barns in the morning
worn out. There is no doubt about
horses being fed too mueh corn in the
corn-growing regions, not so much on
account of farmers believing that il is
the best grain ration, but because it is
the most convenient. oats in the corn
belt is not a profitable crop, and the by
products of the mills farmers viii not
purchase, hence corn perforce becomes
the exclusive grain ration. one of the
greatest objections to corn, aside from
its heating nature, is its too liberal
use. Too much is usually fed. This is
true especially when the team is not at
work.
In the matter Of feeding hay as rule
too much is given. Some horses are
ruined. not on account of the poor quail
ity of the hay fed. but because too much
is fed. 1t is not good feeding TO go to
the stable one hour after the horses have
been fed and find a large feed of hay
still lying before them. 1t would be
much better 10 find the Manager empty.
With the rush Of blowing, planting
and corn cultivation teams come To the
harvest work more or less jaded. During
the hot harvest weather every good
farmer will favor his teams as much as
possible. We distinctly call To mind how
we used to work the teams from early
morning till noon, and from noon till
shutdown, without water; and how we
used TO get tired waiting for the teams
TO eat their evening ration so we could
hon ont Il rrr
bed. We have Of late years tried TO i'm
prove on this old-time custom. not yet
obsolete. During harvest if the weather
is excessively hot we water the horses
about the middle Of the forenoon. When
we come to supper at 3 o'clock the teams
are brought in, watered and fed They

curious building. Through this forest
extend more than two hundred natural
and artificial arms of the river Spree,
and when the waters are high, the land
is flooded far and wide.. The

only means of intercourse then, IS by
boat, and in winter, when the water is
frozen, all journeys must be performed
on skates. The inhabitants of this dis
trict are still Vandals, and have re-
named true to their old language aud

water serves for street, and those of

water. A house of this kind is built of
logs and is reached by a narrow bridge.
A thick roof Of rushes protects it from
storms, and rudely carved VOLTS heads,
the ancient sign of the Vandals, are
conspicuous on the gable rafters. The
entrance has scriptural sentence over
the door, and is on tho long side of the
house. To the right are the entrances
to the stalls, and to the left OF the long
passage are the living room, bedroom

Among the articles of furniture may be
mentioned the large stove of Dutch

house are the nets used for fishing, and
the round, peculiarly shaped h1ystack,
from the middle of which projects an
immense stake, placed there as strong
support. Such a haystack, containing
as it does the costly product OF the
meadows, is the choicest treasure OF
every Vandal farmer, and is guarded

parts Of Germany, and on account OF
their curious architecture and solidity
are well worthy of study.

Minerals In Alaska.

W. T. Robinson, pioneer miner OF
California, recently returned from Alas
ka, tells some interesting facts relative
to the Kenai peninsula, its climate, mines
and mining.
"The climate is not severe" said Mr..
Robinson. ''Horses pass the winter in
the open air, and wheat and many gar
den vegetables are raised in abundance.
The principal product of the peninsula
is coal, although gold abounds IN places.
Veins Of coal FIVE ald six feet thick are
found sandwiched between sandstone
and belts of fire clay. Many of the coal
veins crop out along sandstone bluff
overlooking Kachekmak Bay, and can
be seen a mile away, one above the
other.
"Some of these veins contain thou.
sands of tons of clear coal,
which can be easily loaded on vessels.
Reefs of the article have been washed
out by the action Of the water, and great
quantities can be found on the beach all
around the peninsula.
"Kachemak Bay is landlocked har.

fourteen to twenty-five for calling YES
