airy Notes.

If cows are allowed to drink stag
nant water it will have bad effect on
the milk.
Ripening cream well before churn-
ing develops flavor and renders churn-
ing easier.
Milk pals, pans, churns, etc., should
be kept scrupulously clean in order to
keep out bacteria.
The dairy interest in many locali-
ties has been set back by building
creameries that were too expensive.
In dairying whatever will reduce
the cost of butter will be in effect the
same as an increase in price of butter.
In moulding butter scald the mold
first and then dip the print into cold
water. The butter then comes out in
nice firm cakes.
In Denmark importation of oleo-
is made punishable bya
law. In Russia oleo has to be died
some bright color, but in no case yell
low.
A practical dairyman says that
cream from a herd of several cows
raised at the proper temperature and
skinned in q proper manner will not
vary much in butter fats from day to
day.
The dairy farmer finds it necessary
10 adopt the intensive system of Gull
lure, and this enables him to improve
,he fertility of his soil so that he can
raise larger crops and get better re-
,urns from his land than he could be-
'ore.

Young lady, ifyo are wise you will

A young man good enough to keep

A letter has just been discovered
among the archives of the British
Museum dated as far back as the year
100, and which gives the origin of
the game of billiards as now played.
The game, it appears, was invented
in 1910 by pawnbroker by the name
of William Kew, in London, who was
in the habit of taking down every
night the three balls which hung be-
fore his shop, and to push them about
with his wooden yard measure on his
counter. Hence the name billiards
which is corruption OF BilPs yard.

This is the Illinois plan, by which the

very greatly from the snow, and their

CORN.
One month ago l reported pros
pect for the largest crop of corn ever
raised in the State, and / might say,
from all reports from other States, the
largest in the United States, but a
month can make very great differ
ence in corn crop. The rains have
not been general by any means, and in
many places where it has rained,
there has not been enough to do any
good, Reports from a great many
counties say, "no rain of any conse-
quence since the snow" / read very
carefully the reports, and find it very
difficult matter to tell which part OF
the State has suffered most from the
want of rain. l rather believe that
the Western and Southern portions
have reported more rain than the
Middle and Eastern parts, but the
drought seems TO be very widespread,
not confined to our State alone, but to
most of the corn growing States. The
average condition of the crop Is plac-
ed at 80 per cent.
ToBA eco.
All correspondents agree that the
early planting of tobacco is doing
fairly well, making good growth and
of fair crop, but that the
late setting is doing little or no good
on account of the dry hot weather.
In many places i, is firing very badly.
The present condition does not indi-
cate very large crop. The average
acreage is placed at 70 per cent. The
average condition is placed at Is per
cent.
PASTURES.
From the reports of correspondents
all kinds of pastures are unusually
short for this time of year. 1t is not
an uncommon thing to commence
'eeding out stock in September, but
not often the case in August. Stock
water is reported very scarce in some
counties. The condition as reported

tut was put in the stack in fine con-
lition. The per cent. as reborted, is
placed at 6S.

ease of any kind has been reported.
