Six Scientific Prisoners

Six prisoners confined in the jail at
Monticello, in Wayne county, escaped
last week in a very unusual way. The
structure is Il new one, and was built
the town. The stone used was blue lime
stone, and very susceptible to the influ-
ence of fire and water, and is easily de-
composed. Those in charge of the affairs
of the county thought the stone would
answer all purposes, and used it as an
experiment which will prove quite costly,
as the interior of the edifice will have to
be reconstructed.
The prisoners in the Jail were evidently
familiar with the character of the stone,
and set about testing it's durability They
saved all the grease from the food brought
them, placed it on the floor beside the
wall, and set fire to it. After the wall
was thoroughly heated, they threw cold
water on it, and the stone cracked so as
to be easily removed.-Louisville Courier
Journal.

Value of Poultry Manure.

I find poultry manure very valuable for
garden use, and SO in both my henhouses
have light floor under the roosts, and
we save a busllel or SO a week of drop
pings. l keep it dry in barrels until
spring. This manure we prepare for use
by pi1ing it on the cement floor in the barn
cellar in March, and sprinkle it with wa
ter to dampen it SO it will heat. As soon
as hot we shovel it over and sprinkle it
with plaster and spread it six inches
thick. and turn it every day, beating it
with a shovel SO as to pulverize it and get
it rs fine rs possible, and frequently we
screen it SO MS to have half or more of it

Why Don't the Butter Come?

AS cold weather sets in on many farms
there is considerable difficulty experienced
with the churning operations. Especially
is this the case on farms where there is
little or no attention paid to keeping cream
for churning i'll any systematic manner.
Lack of conveniences when cold weather
makes it necessary that the milk should
be kept in the house, is greatly the cause
why it is at times difficult to get the but
ter to come. The following article from
for the trouble and strikes the keynote for
it when speaking of the thermometer. The
article in question reads: Intimate re-
lations with the process of making butter
come has led me to the conclusion that
when the butter fails to make an appear.
ance it is never the fault of the butter, but
always the fault of the would-be butter
maker.
use thermometer, you have no right to
even ask why the butter does not come
for sad experience has taught that diff
ference of even four-degrees will effect
ually stop all signs of butter coming, and
is possible to tell when the cream is with
in four degrees of the proper temperature
After you begin to use your thermometer
the chief reason why the butter does not
come is because you expect that, once
having brought the cream to the proper
temperature, it will stay there while you
proceed to bring forth the butter, regard
less of the outside temperature. On cool,
frosty mornings have brought the cream
to IL degrees, and after churning for Il
half hour without any apparent result,
havesiound that the outside low tenpera-
ture had brought the cream down to SO
degrees. Then there was nothing to do
but to fill can with warm water and
after seeing that the outside was clean
put it in the cream until it had the de-
sired warming effect.
Another common reason is-when q bar
rel churn is used-that the churn is not
properly turned There is an art in churn-
ing: barrel churn, which, like skating or
swimming, can only be acquired by prac-
tice: Force enough should be expended
during quarter revolution to carry the
churn through the remaining three-quar-
tiers. The cream should not keep up a
revolution. And with different quantities
of cream a different speed of turning must
be maintained. It is hard to describe, but
when you once get it it is easy to induce
the most reluctant butter to come.
again, the condition of the cream has a
cream, some sweet, some sour and some
medium, dumped together in the churn,
will rarely produce satisfactory results. 1t
will probably take the butter a long while
to get here, and even then some of it will
be lost on the way, as the very rich butter
milk will abundantly testify. Different lots
of cream should be thoroughly mixed and
then allowed to stand twelve hours before
churning.
'While, of course, there are special cases
requiring special treatment, yet l think
+ that if the above hints are noticed, the but
ter will generally be found to arrive OH
schedule time. "-Exchange.
