to the discussion of the effect Of rennet
in cheese making. He holas that rem

exactly the same way except that an in
creased quantity of rennet was used
in some az compared with others, that
in which. the larger quantity Of rennet
was employed was pronounced ripe at
q time when the others in which the
smaller quantity Of rennet was used
was considered green. This is not sim

but it that of experts who examined
the cheese. and who We're not aware

PhOtOgraphinE LiKh tninR.

An interesting photograph Of a sextu-
pie lightning fash was exhibited at a
recent seance in the French academy.
The negative was taken by a Steinheil
detective camera placed in the window
during a terrific thunder storm which
broke over Prague On May % of this
year. The flash struck four houses
simultaneously, wrecking the roofs and
doing considerable damage. Two other
flashes are distinctly shown in the pho
tograph as darting out from the same
cloud, one of which struck the cupola
Of the Academy Of Science, without i'll
juring it, while the other was attracted
by q group of telephone wires, which 1t
fused. The melting of the wires and
the brilliant lighting up of the clouds

shadow of the cupola thrown clearly

The Change to Winter Feeding.
Live stock suffers by a sudden
change from the green food Of good
pastures to a diet Of dry hay, or straw
and grain. As the frost or the drouth
kills the green forage crops the stock
should have an occasional feed from
the winter wheat fields or turnips,
mangels, sugar beets, carrots OF other
roots may be fed to advantage with
the dry hay or fodder. An early sown
field Of rye will make choice pasture
for fall feeding. Stock on overstocked,
| or ON dried up pastures, should be fed
green corn fodder. either In the stable
yard or In the field. To gradually
change to dry food, fresh sorghum fod-
der. cowpeas, vetches, Hungarian grass,
late oats with peas, OF other good soil
ing crops may also be fed in the same
manner. II such green foods are not
at hand then raw potatoes, roots, or
wheat pasturage should be resorted to,
using with them and the dry forage q
grain ration Of ground rye, corn and
oats. or wheat bran and middlings with
chopped corn. The grain should be fed
from small troughs, and it is more
profitable II freshly soaked or moisten-
ed and less will be wasted II thus
treated. The change of diet from short
runs In the newly moved or reaped or
husked fields will benefit the stock as
they win CLEAN many scatterings and
| eat nutritious weeds. Cattle and sheep
will be helped by being allowed to
browse the underbrush In timber land,
and when they begin to injure the trees,
they may be shut up In the barnyard.
1t will never pay to let stock lose flesh
and this Is especially true with growing
animals. To keep their digestions
good animals should gradually change
from green to dry food, and when eat
ing the latter they should have an
abundance Of drinking water.

Selecting Seed Potatoes.

James Harvey and his neighbor
Young have been testing the matter Of
selecting seed potatoes for some years,
and in the American Farmer and Farm
News he gives the results of his expe-
rience as follows:
We select our seed potatoes when we
dig the crop in the fall and do not wait
for the hurry of spring work.
We select out gOOd-sized potatoes Of
the shape we want, and all as nearly
Of n size as possible.
We prefer potatoes about the size Of
q turkey egg or slightly larger, smooth
and rather fiat than otherwise, as q
pototo the shape Of a ball eve cooks
through as evenly as one that is fat
tened q little. You see we not only
look to shape and quality, but to the
convenience of the cook, for q poorly
cooked potatoe' is half spoiled.
After we have selected the seed we
let it lie in the sun or at least q light
place, until each potatoe is pretty green
and they are pitted by themselves and
not disturbed until time to plant them
next spring. At first only a light coat
of earth Is put over them, and this is
increased as the weather grows colder,
until a foot of earth covers the tubers.,
When the cold Is severe enough u
freeze the ground q coat of stable ma
l,lare is put over this and then more
earth over it all If this method of
pitting is followed the potato will
keep until May without sprouting, and
this is important, for where the pota-
toes are treated as we treat ours the
buds are strong, and the first ones
should be kept dormant until planting
time, for II they get any considerable
start they will get broken Off before
planting, and the second ones will be
much smaller and affect the crop.
We cut just long enough before
planting to allow the cut surface to get
dry.

Climate and Breed.

10 climatic influences we owe large
ly the widely different breeds Of cattle.
In the beginning, man has no con.
scious influence in establishing breeds.
He merely selected and retained the
improvements that nature had begun,
and this natural improvement was in
every case due to a more completed
adaptation to surrounding environ.
ments. Hence, as environments dit.
fered, different breeds arose from cat
tie that were originally practically
Identical. In England, until a short
time ago, each Of the forty counties
had its local breed, distinctly marked
and locally esteemed for some supposed
superiority. Under the operation OF
these natural laws there have been de.
velOped at least three distinct types
of Shorthorns in Great Britain. viz.
The Bates, the Booth and the Scotch
types; besides a general class that can.
not be placed under any distinct type
The question of introducing Jerseys
into other parts Of the world was sim.
ply one of acclimatization. If they be
be made to live and do well they would
live as Jerseys and do as well as Jer-
seys do on that Island. For seventy.
five years past this III ,stion has been
put to the test. and it has been an
swered in the affirmative in every part
of the globe.-Jersey Bulletin.

Growing Mushrooms in Pots
Mr.. Thompson, the well-known hort1-
culturist, has the following suggestions
as to the way in which he utilizes the
space in his dollhouse in raising mush-
rooms. He says:
I place a ten-inch board on its edge
on the ground floor close to the hot wa
ter pipes, and outside of the supports
another ten-inch board, with cross
pieces nailed every ten feet to keep
them in place; the space in my houses
is fourteen inches between those two
boards. I fill ten-inch pots with man.
ure, prepared for beds, to within one
and one-half inches of the top. I place
the pots in the space between the ten
inch boards and pack them closely with
spahagnum moss. and in each pot I
make q hole two inches deep and place
a small handful of spawn; the pots are
then filed to the rim with finely sifted
loan. and covered all owe with a light
covering of excelsior. This and the
sphagnum moss between the pots r
occasionally damped with tepid water;
in about five weeks mushrooms will ap-
pear. Watering will be as for the beds.
I find the mushrooms from pots in all
ways as fine as those from beds, nor do
I find any difficulty in producing fine
mushrooms close by the hot water
pipes. ,@
