DAIRY SUGGESTIONS.

Cows SHOULD by no means be hur-
RED over their calving. It is a mis-
taken idea to take them away from
their stalls at this period. After the
calf is born give the COW about two
quarts of cold water. Linseed and
-four Cruel for few days will be found
to be good diet, strengthening the
COW and promoting the flow of milk.
If it be deemed advisable during
the time when cows are dry for calv-
ing to feed them on an inferior quail
ty of hay-and this is practiced by the
best of farmers-a handy method of
improving the hay is to scatter a
handful of cornIneal over it in the
managers before the cows. 1t will also
pay to treat good hay in this manner
For the first two or three weeks
young calves destined for dairy cows
can profitably be allowed all the new
milk they want: after this period they
may be fed on skim milk, which. how
ever, should by all means be improved
by ground linseed. or similar prepare
tions, with ground wheat or oatmeal
added. These additions to the skim
milk should be boiled or steamed. and
not given raw to the calves, being in
the former condition more easily di.

ABANDONED TO a MOB.

The SmallpON-Infected District of Mill
waukee Deserted by the Health Officers
and in the Hands of Squads OF Angry

by Gordon of Soldiers.
MILWAUKEE, Aug. 29.-To-nicht the
health department has temporarily
abandoned the South Side. Fiftee
new cases of smallpox We're reported
from that section to-day-an from the
Eleventh ward. but DIR. Kempster or
dered his officers to keep away. No at
tempts will be made to-day to investi-
gate new cases or remove parents
The Eleventh ward is in the hands
of squads of angry people, who are
marching up and down the streets
seeking for quarantined houses In
three or four instances the guards have
been obliged to desert their posts.
The state board of health was IN ses-
sion all day in Parlor f OF the Pister.
but nothing was decided upon. The
whole time was occupied in asking
questions OF the health officer, chief of
police and the mayor.
There is considerable guessing go
ing on as to what the state board will
do. but it seems certain to do some
thing at once. and its measures are eX-
pected to be drastic. Whether the
state board will take control is doubt
full: but the Eleventh ward will I'M
doubtedly be quarantined and law and
order restored, if it requires state
troops to do it.
Fred Rosenberg, the man who was
arrested on the charge of engaging in
the smallpox riot on the South Side
yesterday, was discharged by Judge
WILDER.

APPLES FOR DESSERT.
Various Ways of Turning Them Into De-
licious Dishes.

lciOus Dishes.
To serve apples with cream take very
ripe apples: pare and slice: place in a
bowl and sprinkle with powdered sugar
and a little nutmeg: set on ice until
cold. and serve with thick, rich cream.
Apples and peaches iced make a very
easily-prepared dessert. Pare we'll
favored apples and ripe sweet peaches
in the proportion of three peaches to
one apple: chop into small pieces: place
in fruit bowl in alternate layers.
sprinkle with powdered sugar and
pounded ice. Serve Immediately.
A very acceptable breakfast dish is
baked apples. Wipe sweet. ripe apples
clean: remove the cores: stand them in
baking pan: fill the centers with but
ter and sugar. sprinkle lightly with
cinnamon and powdered sugar. Bake
in moderate oven until tender. Serve
cold in their own strip.
Coddled apples are made of tart, ripe
apples of uniform size with the cores
carefully removed. Stand the fruit in
the bottom of porcelain-lined kettle:
spread thickly with sugar: cover the
bot tom of the kettle with boiling water,
and allow the water to steam on the
back of the range until tender. Take
up carefully without breaking; pour
the strip over the apples and stand
aside TO cool.
To make apple snow. pare. core and
steam half a dozen large tart apples
until tender: press through a sieve and
set aside to cool; when cold add a cup
of sugar and the juice of a lemon: beat
the whites of six eggs: add carefully to
the apples. and serve Immediately.
A very delicious dish for dessert or
high tea is Charlotte de Pomme. Pare
a nd quarter ten tart apples: put them
in a kettle with two cups of sugar and
half pint of water; let steam gently
until clear. Take up; line deep bak-
ing dish with slices of spongecake: turn
the apples in. make hole in the CEN
ter and fill with currant jelly Set in
a slow oven for one hour: turn out care
fully on dish. Serve with sugar and
cream.
Apple sponge is made by covering
half box of gelatine with cold water
and allowing it to stand for half an
hour: then pour over it half pint of
boiling water, and stir until dissolved.
Press pint Of stewed apples through
a sieve and mix with the gelatine: add
a pound of sugar, and stir until it
melts; squeeze in the juice of two lem
ons: turn the mixture into tin pan;
set on ice until it begins to thicken.
Beat the whites Of three eggs: stir into
the apples; beat all together until
thick and cold. Pour into a mold and
set on ice to harden. Serve with
whipped cream.-Ladies' HomeJ ournal.

ENSIlAGE FODDER RACK.
A Device Which Saves Much Labor and
Lots of Annoyance.

Although the growing of a good
crop of grain as well as fodder and al
lowing it to ripen for ensilage gives us
much better ensilage than the old plan
of growing fodder only and cutting
and canning it green. it does not in
the least aid us in the solution of the
problem of transporting our ensilage
material from the field to the cutter.
The long stalks with large, heavy ears
are very difficult to handle. Many de-
vices have been gotten up to aid in
handling this fodder, and one of the
best which we have seen is low-down
wagon described in the Ohio Farmer
by F. P. Stump, of the Ohio state uni.
versity farm. as follows:
The plan is to fit an ordinary farm
wagon with a rack low enough to al
low one man alone to load. convenient
ly, fair load. 1t requires for ma
terial two pieces of pine 5xe inches by
16 feet, one piece of oak 5x6x12 inches,
four pieces of pine 5xex15 inches.

SEPARATING CREAM.
Cold Water VIII Hasten the Process and
Save Labor and Expense.

Save Labor and Expense.
Butter made from cream IN sub
merged cans has not that dclicacy OF
flavor of butter from cream raised in
open cans. and is readily detected by
critical observer. A method is fast
coming into use which is simple. in
expensive. saving of ice and labor.
preserves the quality of the open can
and sa-es time almost as well as the
mechanical separator, without the ex-
pense.
The milk, warm from the cow. is
strained into a can till it is half full;
then fill the can with cold water,
which aerates milk, and Immediately
reduces its temperature to about 20 de-
grees F., even in the warmest of
weather. All the cream will rise to
the surface in less than three hours.
The combined milk and water is
drawn by a faucet from the bottom of
the can till the cream appears, which
is then drawn into a separate vessel.
AS the cream is separated in less than
three hours. the can or cans used for
the mornings milk are ready to be
used for the nights milk; all that need
60 into the house is the sweet cream,
thus Tightening the labor there. The
diluted skim milk is fed to the pigs. the
costly butter fat extracted from it be-
ing replaced by the cheaper fat of
cornmeal. in such proportions as are
needed to feed to growing or fattening
stock.
No time is lost. no labor required,
nor expensive machinery 70 keep in
repair when using the dilution process.
AS soon as the milk is mixed with
water the separation goes on natural
ly, while the farmer is attending to
other duties. This quick, inexpensive
process. requiring no ice even in the
warmest weather. enables the farmer
TO convert his cream into butter at
home without the expense of carrying
or having it carried to creamery. 1t
also enables those farmers who are
supplying the large markets to main
tain fair price for milk. They can
manufacture it into butter for time
and reduce the quantity of the milk
sent to market till it will command a
fair price. The farmers can control
the price OF milk if they wish. instead
of the contractors debating what they
shall take. Any Improvement in
production will run up the profit. the
same as an increase in the selling
price. Good pastures are an essential
element in profitable dairying. With
out manure no good farming is pos
sible. Andrew Ii. Ward, in Ohio

Internal Temperature of Trees.

The internal temperature of trees
las been observed for some time past
by NJ. Prinz. of Uccle. in Belgium, who
finds their mean annual temperature
at the heart of tie trunk the same e
that of the air. but the mean monthly
temperature of the trees sometimes
differ from the latter by two or three
degrees centigrade. On certain days
the difference in question may be as
much as ten degrees centigrades- In
very cold weather the internal tenn
perature falls to a few tenths Of de-
gree below the freezing point, and
then remains stationary. In very hot
weather the temperature of the tree
should be fifteen degrees centigrade or
thereabout "A large tree is, therefore.
cooler in hot weather and warmer in
cold weather than the air.

Biggest Tax Paid by Farmers.

Certain statisticians with ample time
and patience for figures have found
that it costs one billion dollars each
year to transport the goods that are
carried in wagons. OF this sum it is
estimated that six hundred and TWEEN
ty-tve million dollars is due directly
to bad roads. If all the roads in the
country were as smooth and as hard as
a driving park or race track. that vast
sum of money would be saved each
year to those who drive horses-most-
ly farmers The total value of farm
products is estimated at two-and-a-
halt billion dollars, SO that bad roads
are responsible for the loss Of nearly
one-fourth the total home value. No
business on earth can thrive with such
a drain on it. Talk abou. the farmers
