quarts of milk yearly and yields from
one to two pounds of butter day But
the constitution Of the COW from the
mountains of Switzerland has not been
weakened by forcing and overlooking to
make her give a great milk record for
advertising. She is just as nature de-
velops her in the mountains whose
grasses yield the sweetest pasturage on
the globe. 1t is likely that the noun
tain region in our own southern states
would be just as fine dairy country as
Switzerland if it were developed.
With the present reputation for weak
ness of constitution which clings, right
ly or wrongly, to the Jersey in Amer
lea, the progressive dairyman cannot do
better than investigate the Swiss cow.
She is brownish i'll color, of good size
and is valuable also for beef.

The Italian Actress Rises to Greater
Heights Than the Frcnchwoman.
AS vet Duse has permitted US only
glimpse Of her gallery Of dramatic por-
traits. Elsewhere she has achieved tri-
umphs in plays differing as wiccl7 as
Ella Femme de Claude and ''L All
besse de Jouarre :" Her Juliet and
Ophelia have aroused fervent enthusi-
asm, and her Cleopatra is still bone
Of critical contention between the COM
mentators who hold that naturalness is
the chiefest stage virtue and those who
prefer the dazzling artif1ce of which
Sarah Bernhardt is passed mistress. If
it be the first object of good acting to
hold the mirror up to nature, the French
actress in these later days would be un-
wise to dispute the palm with her Ital-
ian rival. The women whom she now
depicts are, for the most part, mere
monstrOsitles, fanciful developments
from one morbid and extravagant type.
If Duse, in attempting some Of them,
has failed to emphasize all the violent
and impossible contrasts of which they
are compounded, and to amaze or hor-
rlfy by cry or gesture, she at least
has contrived to impart to them, by her
intuitive sense Of truth and proportion,
some sem lance Of humanity. Wherever
there is foundation of human heart to
work upon her power is absolute, and
she can interpret all moods with almost
equal facility. AS has been pointed out,
she can sound all the depths of pathos,
or simulate paroxysm Of rage or
scoTn with the same veracity; can en-
plOy with delightful effect all the wiles
Of feminine seductiveness, play the CO.
quette with indispensable archness and
vivacity and tread the pe1ilous paths Of
the riskiest french comedy with q light
ness, a sparkle, an assurance and an
adroitness altogether Partisan.
She possesses, moreover, in q larger
measure than any other actress the pro-
team gift Of genuine impersonation.
With face and figure devoid of any
peculiar characteristic, she Identifies
herself with the fictitious personality by
subtle and appropriate transformations,
III which gait, gesture. carriage and
facial expression all plaS@ their part. In
this respect, beyond question, she is the
greatest actress of the day and among
men Salvini alone takes rank above her
or beside her. Her powers in high trag-
edy OF poetic comedy must be for US as
yet matter for conjecture only.

Provide For Spring Forage.

Let the inquirer sow two acres of rye,
two bushels per acre, and one acre OF
wheat, if wheat will not winter kill
there, with the same amount of seed per
acre. This will give him green fodder 20
start with next spring. The rye is earlier,
and the wheat will follow the rye In
the spring he can SOW one acre of oats
and peas, ~ bushels each per acre, as
early as oats can be sown on his land
Two or three weeks later let him SOW
another acre of oats or peas to follow
the first in feeding. Glover and green
grass will fill in between the winter
grain feeds and the oats and peas, while
the latter will follow by corn. About
Aug. 1 one or two acres of barley or
peas, two bushels barley and one bushel
of peas may be sown to feed after corn.
Barley and peas will withstand severe
frosts even until the ground freezes, and
are the last green crop available. The
yields per acre of oats and peas and Of
barley and peas are nearly equal, being
a little more than one-half in green tons
of the yield of corn. If his 30 cows
have so much pasturage that not all Of
these forage crops are needed green, any
portions remaining may be cured for
winter use except the last, which comes

Edison and the Break"

cdr. Norvin Green,' says Megar-
geo. in the Philadelphia Times, 1.-THE
long time president of the Western I'm
ion Telegraph company, claimed that he
gave Edison the employment which was
the beginning Of his successful career, to
which, as is well known, the Western
Union corporation has largely contrib
uted. Edison had been bothering the
officers of the company with Geographic
devices they had no need of. He came
into the office one day when it was i'm
possible to obtain communication be-
tween New York and Albany, and the
seat of the difficulty could not be To-
Gated. He was banteringly invited to
remedy the trouble. He said he could do
SO in two hours. He was laughed at and
given two days for the task. His process
was very simple. He telegraphed to
the best operator in Pittsburg and in
structed him to telegraph to the best
operator in Albany. The latter tel
egraphed his New York line down as
far as he could, feeling his way from
point to point, and sending the results
to the Pittsburg man, who forwarded
them to Edison. In less than one hour
Edison said to the anxious officials, THE
break is two miles from Poughkeepsie
That simple method insured his status
with the Western Union people and
won for him a hearing in all his

To Cure Rennet.

For the rennet one should secure the
stomach of a young calf that has been
allowed no food save its mother s milk.
The calf should not be over 5 weeks old
when it is killed. When the rennet is
removed by the butcher, it should Ebe

quently, and when dry put the rennet
in tight box in dry place, for it is
ready to be used at any time. [ do not
know that it will ever spoil if treated in
this manner. When preparing rennet,
never wash or soak it, as that would GER
tainly spoil It.
On the evening before the rennet is
to be used cut from the dried rennet q
piece containing about six square inches
and place it in a cupful of warm water.
In the morning strain the new milk,
place it on the stove, and when it regis
tiers at the cheese mark (SS degrees) re-
move from the fire and put in the care
fully strained water III which the rennet
has been soaked and rubbed. AS it is
turned in, stir the milk with a long
wooden paddle in soft, rolling way
until all is we'll mixed, then cover with
a cloth and leave alone for about 90
minutes Now try it. If it is a soft
curd, very much like custard, it is all
right.
We will suppose that all know that
rennet is the stomach of veal calf,
sailed and dried The contents Of the
stomach must be washed and freed from
all foreign matter, being careful not to
let it stand in water any length of time.
Then take a fOrked stick, stretch the
stomach on that, then in the bag thus
formed place the curds from the stomach
and coffeecupful of rock salt, rubbing
fine salt on the outside; then hang it up
to dry. When wanted for use, cut off
piece an inch square to curdle pint Of
milk, letting it soak overnight, as time
is necessary to draw out all the strength.

Modern Methods.

The modern methods of running 3
creamery are not nearly so expensive as
they were Il few years back, and tho
probabilities are they will be much
cheaper as time goes by. In former days
the large pans for holding the milk to
skim was the most expensive part of the
plant, with necessary means of keeping
them clean, besides the additional house
room necessary and a lot of old sour
skimmilz to take care Of The modern
method of separators curtails this item
of space most materially, SO that only a
small house is necessary where only but
ter is made, but it is questionable if
this plan is as safe as the joint cheese
and butter factory, where the milk can
be made into cheese during the summer,
when butter prices are below the profit
mark. --Denver Field and Farm.

The Last Commander.

General Nelson A. Miles will prob
ably be the last of the great generals of
the war Of the rebellion to command the
army of the United States. He will not
reach the age limit for retirement for
eight years yet, in August, 1908, and by
chat time all Of the major generals and
brigadier generals now in the active
service will have been retired. General
Ruger has but a year to serve; General
Merritt retires in 1900; General Brooke,
the present sonior brigadier general, in
1909; General Wheaton i'll 1897, Gen
eral Otis in 1902, General Forsyth in
1898 and General Bliss and General
Coppinger in 1899 1t will thus be seen
that General Miles service, should he
live to reach the age for retirement, will
outIast all the really prominent officers
now on the active list. Minneapolis

A Traitor as Ease rs Dreyfus.

The arrest of French spies in Ger
many and Of German spies in France
has long ceased to possess the element
Of novelty or to attract more than pass
ing attention. But it is none the less
true that an incident Of this sort, if it
came at q moment Of international fer
ment, might serve to excite passions on
both sides Of the V0sges as readily now
as q quarter of a century ago. The case
of the man Schwarz, who, with his
family, has been imprisoned in Paris, is
one particularly calculated to impress
the French imagination. If he is guilty
beyond doubts, as lie Temps declares,
he is something much worse than an
ordinary spy. He is an AIsatian by
birth, served in the French army during
the war, and afterWard elected to retain
his French nationality. This gave him
special claims to official consideration
and secured him good berth in the po-
lice service and decoration to boot. It
also put him in the very heart of the
patriotic clubs and societies which M.
DerOulede and his friends have organ
lied and enabled him to learn the names
of Erenchmen who were sent into Ger
many to spy out facts about the for
tresses and to warn the Berlin authori-
ties of their coming. He ranks, there
fore, in the public mind as a traitor
quite as base as Dreyfus, and at this
time of general uneasiness his case may
easily arouse even deeper national re
sentiment. Saturday Review.

Dairy and Creamery.

Those dairymen have the best success
who begin early to feed ensilage. Feed
along with it also some oilmeal, bran
and cOttonseed meal or gluten meal.

winter milking COWS out awhile every
day fierce storm was not raging, even
if he had to supply them with over

Keep COWS away from stagnant water
and swamp pastures.
A Pennsylvania creamery has its
walls built of enameled bricks, its cream
tanks made Of plate glass, and its pipes
are nickel plated. But just as good but
ter can be made in a creamery whose
pipes are only of plain, common metal.
Now take account of all the live stock
on your place before the cold weather
sets in. If any COWS, horses, sheep or
poultry are so old that they are unprofit-
able, OF if for any other reason they are
not useful, get rid of them at once. Let
neither carelessness nor sentiment stand
in tho way, unless you are so rich that
it does not matter to you how many
animals eat their heads off, Look out
for their keep. Beef those that Go not
An old cow fattened up quickly makes
very good beef in spite of what some
butchers say. Old COWS can be disposed
of to the sausage factories. At any rate,
winter no animal on your place at a
dead loss.
If you can spare little skimmilk for
the last springs heifer calves that you
are raising, by all means give it to them
through the cold weather. Some careful
dairymen feed the young heifers also
once q day cooked porridge of oatmeal,
with teaspoonful of linseed meal in 1T.
The skimmillz, the porridge and corn
fodder, with a little clover or alfalfa
hay, Will keep the calves thriving all
winter. Heifers thus fed and cared for
will usually come in heat when they are
about 8 or 10 months old, and they Will
be ready to bring you their first calf
next fall all ready for winter dairying.

Building and Filling an Icehouse.

Wherever there is q dairy, even Of
one or two COWS, ice is Indispensable for
the proper handling of milk i'll warm
weather. But there are also many other
uses of ice on the farm, as every house
wife knows. 1t is not right that farmers
should do without this luxury, when 1t
is in common use by persons who can
only get it by paying much more than
it will cost them. The work of filling
the icehOuses comes at a time when all
the farm teams are idle. 1t occupies
time that would otherwise be wasted,
both for men and teams. 1t will pay TO
draw ice two and even three miles
rather than not have it, but after
farmer has done this one or two years
he will conclude that it pays better to
have an ice pond on the farm. For the
amount of ice needed for home supply
no part of the farm will pay better. One
caution needs to be remembered IN
building icehOuses. They should not be
built against any other building. The
ice attracts the lightning, and not only
will buildings in contact with the ice
house be apt to be burned, but it will
be nearly impossible TO get insurance
companies to take such buildings as
risks without a much higher premium
than would otherwise be asked. George

WATERING BUTTER.
How NTUch Water May Good Butter Nor
maIly Contain.

How MCCh water May Good Butter Nor
mally Contain.
Twelve to 10 per cent of water is GER
tainIy 10 excess. I only contend that if
in Denmark, with its much cooler
butter working rooms, with two or three
workings III summer, generally IA to 16
per cent of water is left in it, then this
object cannot be gained here in our
working rooms with a temperature
above so degrees F., with only one
working. without overworking. 1t looks
like common sense that if we have q
too warm room to work butter in the
best thing for the butter is to expose it
on the worker only for a short time,
and then remove it at once to the cool
room or refrigerator and rework a short
time when perfectly firm. 1t is some
what more work (and here lies the
trouble), but it necessarily makes
irmer butter, of better grain, and with
less water left in it than when worked
only once in warm room SO thoroughly
that the salt will not cause notifies. l
do not see how any experienced butter
maker can differ herein. Very true. If
but this is the big if-the butter is at
the right temperature, there is no dan
ger of destroying the grain, but if tho
butter room is warm or hot, even as in
most creameries, then the butter cannot
stand finishing at once without hurt.
The facts prove this, as only small
quantity of creamery butter shipped to
cities is perfect-much very imperfect.
By overworking butter when too
warm it can easily be made to hold
more water without showing it on the
trier, and the same butter Will also lose
less from shrinkage i'll the tub, but far
more than the gain in weight will be
lost i'll quality. AS Chicago dealers re
mark in Chicago Produce, all paraffin
ing, etc., do not make the butter hold
the water. 1t will leak out and stay
along the sides and bottom and be a loss
in weight anyhow. Moldenhawer

What to Do With a Kicker.

The COW is said to be a crossbred
Jersey Guernsey. She is of an extreme
~ nervous disposition, and after nearly
two years in our stable does not allow
herself to be handled without quite a
show of nervous excitement. This cow
was always hampered by a strong strap
to prevent kicking at milking, until she
was shorn of beautiful pair of horns
which she too vigorously used on her
fellows. Then she Gained sufficiently to
be MIXED without the use of a strap, if
the mixer proceeded in the usual way.
