secure the best results in cream raising
let the milk be strained and put at rest

test this, strain one-half the cows milk

the milk stool. and strain the other
half into another pan half an hour
later ane note the difference in re-
suits.
The old-time method of covering tho
milk pail with a strainer cloth, laying
a clean clam shell in the depression
and milking in the clam shell, is not
one which modern dairymen need to
laugh at. The practice is excellent.
1t allows straining the milk instantly,
and does not permit the streams to
force filth through the strainer as their
force is expended upon the hard and
odorless clam shell, or other like SUBJ

Tho Poultry Business.

The raising of poultry on the farms
of the country is not as general As it
should be. nor is the su bject ever given
a thought. as a rule. when figuring on
the most profitable or productive crops
to cultivate. It Is no secret that the
staple products furnish the smallest
profits for the investment of money,
time and labor involved. The raising
of turkeys. chickens, geese and ducks
brings moro money to the farmer or
farmers wife on the investment, than
anything else that can be named.
Rarely a failure except through gross
neglect, they are always marketable at
q profit either alive or dressed; apart
from them the eggs alone bring in quite
a revenue. The favorable conditions
essential to success in raising other
crops are not demanded. and no good
excuse can be offered for not raising

FASHIONS IN 'kERcHIEFS.

SILK for Ordinary Times.
The handkerchiefs in vogue for even
ing use are dainty bits of lace or silk
gauze, those of real point or duchesse
with center of finest linen lawn still

to put the finishing touch to an elab.
crate toilet, especially when the latter
has a garniture of similar lace. A pref
ty one can be found for one dollar and
a quarter, with narrow border OF
duchesse lace, and a similar piece let
in at the four corners; while for
twenty-five dollars an exquisitely
fine specimen, almost entirely
composed of point, can be procured.
The handkerchief of silk gaze is usually
delicate tints of pink, yellow, ecru and
heliotrope are favored. The edge is
embroidered in white or colored floss
silks, and one variety displayed has a
narrow hem-stitched border with
row of the silk EN- broidery just above
it. Partisan novelty in silk gauze
shows a square of pale yellow with an
edging of black lace set on, the lace
broadening or narrowing to meet the
irregular outline of the gauze center
piece. Another imported sample is of
= faint shade of pink crepe with wide
border of colored embroidery.
The fancy white or tinted China and
use can be purchased for almost any
price from nineteen cents upwards, and
comes with the plain stitch, an added
initial, or with EN- broidered finish of
white or colored silks. However, it is
not SO much liked as q similar article
OF linen, and it is sure to lose its white
ness or original tint when laundered
The shops are constantly offering
some special lot of this both useful and
ornamental part of the wardrobe at a
reduction in price, and if one is on the
lookout for opportunities the purchase
can be effected at much lower rates
than ordinarily.
For general use or drcssy occasions
the fine linen or linen-lawn handker-
chief with dainty border of lace or en-
broldery is preferable. One seen on
the counter of a Broadway shop was of
linen lawn as fine rs gossamer; it's mar

in delicate hand embroidery. and q vine

FunEus Spores in Seeds.

Some fungous diseases of fruits and
vegetables live over winter in the
seeds. This is especially true of the
bean anthracnose, and possibly also of
the watermelon rot. The fungus spores
in the seeds may be killed by soaking
for an hour in solution of three
ounces of copper carbonate in one
quart of ammonia and diluted with
four and a half gallons of water. This
is somewhat similar to the treatment of
oats and wheat preparatory to sowing
found SO efficient at many of the ex-
pertinent stations and in actual prsc-
tice on hundreds of farms.

Mr.. FUNNvMAN'S IDEA,

A Farmer Humorist Tells How to Have
Good Roads.
can inform your readers of the very
best way that roads can be improved
and the only way to have lasting roads.
Take the road tax from every farmer
who is willing or able to build up and
care for a limited length of road Di-
vide the country roads up into small
chunks. Give q premium of a new
kind OF pig or a new strain of cockerel
for the best improved chunk of road in
the care of any single farmer.
Get the ladies interested by offering
them prizes of sweetmeats or chocolate
drops. if they will use their influence
with their husbands, father and sweet
hearts, to make and keep up their
quota of the road. Have kissing bees
which will interest the boys, they will
do any sort of work for a kiss This
will start up big excitement through
out the country.
Offer to give all the stone, gravel or
sand necessary to make a permanent
road. When there is no stone there is
plenty of gravel, and when there is no
gravel there is sand. Mix sand with
clay-mix gravel with clay-mix stone
broken as small hens eggs with
clay. Tax city people and farmers
who do not help to make the roads.
Then when every thing begins to
work smoothly offer reward for the
poorest worked piece of road. The re-
ward may be a pair of mules ears cut
from the head of a defunct mule, well
CREASED and dried. There is nothing
like rewards offered to start the
farmer into good actions. feel conf
dent if the above is put into practice
we will have the best roads that the
world ever saw. And we will have
plenty of fun as we'll as good roads,
Stir 'em up.-Cor. Rural World.
