ashamed to own, or put tag on with
your name on as the maker of the same.
I have marked every package Of my
butter for the last eight years. always
market the butter as soon as possible
after it is packed, as all butter loses
more or less of that Eice flavor after two
or three weeks. I have tried several
ways OF marketing butter: First, the
commission man, which took too much
OF the profits, the freight, carriage and
commission, and always shrinkage 81
from one to four hundred per package.
and all this comes out OF the producer.

matter to Gull out the improbable

mind that the American people as
whole are epicures of more or less ad-
vancement, and there is not much like
lihood that their tastes will degenerate.
Feeders are realizing more and more
the waste of material in old steers, the
older they grow the more feed being
required to produce the additional
pound of meat. Good breeding and
good feeding is certain to produce a
very edible bullock in less than two
years. A 1,6OO-pounder may bring more
in money to breeder. dealer and butcher
than baby beef. but hardly more profit
if all the extra feed and work are con-
sidered.-Butchers' Advocate.

D.e.dene. Of Turkish Hor..A

Deeadene0 Of Turkish HorDoA
Turkey, which once used to breed q
large number of horses yearly. appears
to be in a bad way now in that re-
s2ect. Quite recently the Turkish
minister Of war. wishing to horse
few squadrons, found that horse
breeding had fallen completely through.
1t was impossible for the mtaister OF
war to find, throughout the extent
Of the empire, the number OF horses
necessary to remount the caval-
~, and therefore recourse had to be
had to Hungary and Russia. Owing
to these circumstances efforts are now
being made to once more raise horse
breeding to it's former level. The sui
tan has ordered several haras to be
formed, the largest being in Liban,
whence $50 foals are expected yearly.
It has also been resolved to create or
reorsRnize horse races on the model OF
those given of late years at Beyrout. in
Syria, on the same conditions as In
Europe. In addition. the minister OF
war will distribute medals and rewards
to those breeders who present the finest
colts to the remount committee. Most
of the stations approved by the gov
eminent are Arabs, although some Rus
sian and English stations have also
been introduced. The expectation o!
horses is rigidly forbidden in Turkey.
the only exception being in favor OF the
French administration of haras, which
is permitted to purchase few Arat
stallions.-London Live Stock Journal

Light Brahmas.

Ave years. The first fifteen years We

the9ast twenty years we have kept pure
bred Light Brahmas exclusively, infus-
ing new blood every two years by pur-
chasing male fowls of pure blood from

suits me best. Ny poultry houses have
been just ordinary structures, such as
are generally found on farms, and that
can be pulled down and cleaned up
every year and again rebuilt in the fall.
In the morning my fowls get cooked
food, such as potatoes, bread crumbs,

and wheat. We market our fowls
largely when they become broody. We
get plenty of eggs in winter when the
hens are kept warm and are fed cooked
food, mixed with meat scraps anu
cayenne pepper. We have lost no fowls
from disease. but some years minks
have destroyed some. We have gen.
orally had good success in raising
broods when the sitting hen has been
placed in a yard by herself. I have
never had any sick hens to doctor, ex-
cept some that have had scaly legs.

A eve may be kept in a breeding

greater range of variation in ewes thar

and hence the possibilities of selection

Feed for Eggs.

At the Illinois Farmers Institute re-
Gently held in Springfield, w. C. Gar
rison of Jefferson county, Illinois, made
a few remarks on poultry. The discus
sion was on the getting of winter eggs.
He said he had been feeding wheat and
corn to his hens, and as they had COM
Portable quarters he did not see why
he got no eggs. Now, friend Garrison,
we believe your feed of corn and wheat
is poor one for winter eggs. We have
fed exactly that in years past and got
the same result as you-no eggs. Wheat
and corn will do as partial ration,
but oats should be made the basis of
the feed. The hens will not get crop
bound if the oats are kept before them
all the time. but that might result from
too much fasting, followed by over
feeding.-Farmers' Review.

SOLONS UNDER GUARD.
Police Look After the Welfare of
Kentucky Observation-Disclosures.

Gov. Bradley Thursday morning held a
conference with Mayor Julian of Frank
fort, Ky, and the latter ordered twenty
extra policemen on duty in the rotunda of
the capitol, the Governor expressing his
intention of ordering out the State militia
should it be necessary to preserve order.
The one thing that seemed To be settled
by the days dOings is that Kentucky will
have but one representative in the United
States Senate from March /, 1897, when
Senator Blackburn's term expires, until
at least January, 1898, when the next
Legislature can meet and fill the vacancy.
The newly installed Republican in the
House, Dunlap, did not qualify before the
joint assembly met and so was not a fac
tor The Republicans adopted the tactics
of breaking the quorum, and this brought
from Lieut. Gov. Worthington the ruling
that seventy members constitute a quo
rum necessary to elect a Senator. So
long as this ruling stands no election can
be had except by breaking over party
lines.
Members of the Legislature were nerv-
Gus with suppressed excitement as the
time drew near for the joint session. All
eyes were turned on Sergeant Arms
Summers, the Blackburn Democrats de-
handing of him that he allow no one on
the floor except members entitled TO vote.

put the Republicans defeated it by refus-

HILL ON THE CUBAN WAR.
New York Senator Makes a Strong
Speech in the Senate.

Senators Sherman and Hill were the
conspicuous figures in the Cuban debate
in the Senate Thursday, the New York
Senator forcibly urging the mercenary
character of the pending resolutions, while
Mr.. Sherman upheld them with another
graphic arraignment of Spain and Gen.
Wcyler. 1t was the fourth day of the de-
bate on the conference report and yet
there was no evidence of Il near approach
TO n final vote.
After an hour was consumed in clearing
away routine matters. the Cuban resolu-
tions We're laid before the Senate, and
Mr.. Hill of New York was recognized.
He pointed out that this being a confer
cnce report the resolutions could not be
amended. lie would, therefore vote
against the report in order that at a sub
sequent time amendments might be made.
The Senator particularly objected to the
third clause of the resolutions stating
that the United States has not interviewed
in the struggles between any European
governments and their colonies, but that
owing TO the proximity of Cuba, the Unit
ed States should be prepared to inter;
vene. This he declared to be ambiguous
and unmeaning. We had interviewed in
such controversies. We had interviewed
and recognized the countries which had
been colonies of Spin.
What the resolution sought to convey
was threat to intervene. To this extent
the resolution was unnecessary. 1T is sub
ject to doubtful construction and is a
mischief breeder. 1t was liable to COM
promise us. The phrase the Limited
States should lie prepared to protect the
legitimate interests of our citizens 10y in
tervention' sounded like Il threat or it
was huncombe. IF this resolution means
that we should increase our army. let us
say so frankly and frame a bill for that
purpose. said Mr.. Hill. IF it means
we should increase our navy let us state
ii frankly and fearlessly and frame Il bill
TO that end. Let us not indulge in idle
boasts and threats and doubtful phrases
as to our being prepared to protect legiti-
mate interests by Intervention.
Mr.. Hill asked what these ''legitimate'
interests referred to were. Were there
any "illegitimate interests" This was
not proposition to intervene in the cause
of humanity or to aid in the cause of free
dom or To stop bloodshed, but to pro
tect our legitimate interests" Mr.. Hill
uttered the words with great scorn.
