pAIKYrNs IN WEST VIRGINIA.

It's rather remar kabie that in a State
so well adapted 20 dairying as West
Virginia so little attention should have
been paid TO 10. Al the Agricultural
Experiment Station DIR. Myers attempt
ed TO arouse some interest in this branch
Of agriculture aud succeeded in
demonstration that the milk
and butter business could
be conducted with profit In this
State. The butter from the experiment
station creamery was equal to the best
20 be obtained in any market and was
used regularly and exclusively upon the
Presidents table in the White House.
It was produced proftab.y and the
farmers who sold their milk to the
creamery made money on 10.
Following the experiment station
creamery, several others we're put in OPP
GRAFTON in different sections Of the State,
and everywhere they have shown that
they can be successfully operated if the
proper care is given them.
But here the interest in dairying has
ceased. Half-a-dozen creameries at the
outside are operated in the state, and
no acknowledgement has been given
10 dairying. Some OF Preston county's
people are now engaged in irving 10
work up interest in cheese, with view
20 the establishment Of a cheese factory.
Why this has never been done before
is rather hard 20 say. There is a SPLEEN
did profit in making cheese, there is
always q market for it and the excel
lent pasture always to be had in West
Virginia makes the State especially
adapted TO all kinds Of dairying. Up
In Wisconsin, where the soil is better
for farming purposes than it is here,
hundreds OF farmers have given up
the cultivation OF the soil entirely
and gone exclusively into dairying.
Two hundred cheese factories are In
operation there or in the course Of con-
struction, each using all the milk Of
from $50 to 500 cows. Figures from
that State show that the cows that were
properly taken care OF netted their
owners last year from forty-tOur to fifty
dollars each. In 1899 Wisconsin made
over twenty-five million pounds OF but
ter and more than fifty million pounds
Of cheese.
This State is better situated, in many
respects, for dairying than is Wiscoh-
sin. We have much milder winters aud
pasturage lasts longer every year thad
it does there. The Expense Of keepingV
cattle through the winter is much
smaller here. We have an abundance
OF fresh, pure water, high and dry pas,
ture land, the finest blue grass in
abundance, and all that Is necessary TO
make a dairy pay is for some one who
knows how TO take hold and start it.
The efforts Of the Preston county peo-
ple shouId be encouraged. The farm

A REVOLUTION TO BE WORKED
In the Method of Manufacturing Iron.
Electricity the Agent.


WASHINGTON, May IA reduction
of the cost of casting steel, iron and
other metals by fifty per cent, great
saving in time, the production OF cast
ings without oxidation aud blow holes,
and most important OF all. the produc-
ton Of pig iron in mountainous and re-
mote districts having water power and
ore but no coal; all these things may re-
suit from the application Of electricity
according to new process described in
a report to the Department OF State by
United States Consul Frank Mason, az
Frankfort Germany. The process is
the Taussig process and provides for
smelling and casting metals by electric
heat, under the influence OF raretied
air. An air tight furnace lined with
glazed fire brick has its hearth connect
ed with molds into which the fused
metal flows by gravitation. The
fire brick lining forms an efficient
insulation, and the electric current Is
sent through the charge direc tly with
out the use OF any fuel, or the employ
ment of carbon electrodes. Thereby
the fused metal is nearly pure
and fres from carbon and the continued
exhaustion OF the air and gases produced
increases the fuidity OF the molten
material, prevents oxidation and bis
tering and produces dense, smooth cast
ings Of the highest mechanical quail
ties. In small experimental furnace a
ton and a half Of pig iron was melted in
fifteen minutes by current Of 5000
amperss aud fifty volts, about 1000
horse power. With water power the
cost Is very low, and even using steam
TO generate the electric current there is
an economy in fuel in smelling of 30 to
so per cent. The cost Of pig iron, with
ore at 81. 40 per. ton, as said, would not
exceed So per ton with a motive OF 1000
horse power.
