Dairy Notes.

Always skim the milk before it gets
thick.
Stir in the salt rather than work it
in.
Never churn old and new cream until
it has been well mixed at least four
hours.
1t is not good business policy to keep
poor COWS to lose all the money that is
made on the good ones.
Too much oat meal, on account Of its
oily nature, will III the butter to
become soft.
1t is rather poor encouragement to
attempt TO work dry salt into dry but
ter.
A few minutes delay in straining the
milk after il is drawn will make a
considerable difference in the cream
rising.
The prudent dairyman does not omit
to take an account of stock and strike
a balance between cost and sale price
of his goods.
1t is pretty hard 10 glut the market
with butter that is just right in flavor,
grain, color, sailing, packing, etc; but
in the low-grade line the business is al
ready oyerdone.
Prof. Mckay of the Iowa state ag-
ricultural college says he believes that
the right degree of acidity not only
governs the flavor of butter, but also
that of cheese if brought under favora-
bic circumstances.
Breed and feed are both important
T.. 10 ;r,tnr UNln npnpay. 90 70 nf n cow
not naturally a good mixer, or the
DOOR care OF a COW of a good milking
strain, will neither give good results.
Feed and breed must be combined.
Canada cheese is very largely dis
placing American cheese in England,
because so much American 'dieI
cheese has been sent across the wa n
without any indication of its true c;lar-
acter.
A good butter maker says that the
main point in making granular butter
is to have the temperature low enough
TO prevent adhesion OF the globules
when they appear, and TO stop the
churn while they are in that condi-
ton.
The Elgin Dairy Report believes that
Tic NollditiohS "htth ~" ANNdh
causing low prices of agricultural
products. will extend further aad fur
Their until they will include everything
produced by the farmer and the only
remedy is to practice economy in pro-
duction.
Don't neglect to salt the cows regu-
larry. 1t has been shown that cows
without salt for a week shrank about
Is per cent in quantity of milk, and In
quality also; that 1t turned sour in
much less time than milk drawn from
the same cows when receiving salt
every day.
The Texas station was getting IL
cents to IA cents per pound for its
butter last July and August, so Prof.
Connell stopped selling and put sew
aral hundred pounds in cold storage in
birmingham, Ala, and Houston, Tex.
In October and November the butter
was put on the market and brought
o6 cents per pound in Birmingham and
% cents In Houston. The cost OF the
storage was 8 cents per pound In Biz
mlngham and / cent In Houston.

SHAVED OFF HIS NOSE,
Experience Of Man Who Fell Asleep
in a Chair.

Sleeping End dreaming in a BARRIERS
chair lost a man the tip of his nose
In San Francisco the other day. The
man dropped into the barber shop to
get a shave, and as his face was being
lathered fell asleep. The barber con-
tinued to shave his sleeping customer
gently. Suddenly the sleeper struck
out right and left with his fists, pre-
sumably at SOM dreamland foe. His
right struck the razor and drove its
keen blade through the end Of his
nose. This awakened him with a start,
and after a hasty explanation the man
picked up the piece Of his nose and
ran TO the city and county hospital.
The surgeon stitched the piece of nose
on where ii belonged, and there is a
fair show Of its growing in place, or
more or less in place.-Los Angeles

When Is the Milk Secreteds

1t has been laid down as law so
often that milk is secreted in a large
measure at the time of milking that
it has been accepted as a settled fact
by tie larger number of writers. And
il there are any who hold the opposite
view they have been probably awed
by the weight Of authority against
them and have held their peace. Until
now / have belonged to this latter
class. and while / am still open 10
conviction yet / am free to confess
that the theory that the % does not
manufacture her milk until called for,
does not strike me as a very torcible
mi
| have sat down beside a COW with
her udder so full of something that
il was as hard as if it were swollen,
and after a few minutes milking l
could grasp the entire udder in my
hand. Now. if this COW did not make
her milk until milking time, what was
there In her udder before ] MIXED her,
and why was it that as soon as her
udder became emptied of whatever
was In ii she ceased giving milk. no
matter how much | might strip her
teats?
AUu again. III lht y" oh's S'NN>'
nm the materials for the making of
milk during the intermission between
milking times, how does she know
when to stop her machinery Ihere
was a man who made a patent hens
nest and put it in his hen house. "A
hen got in it and laid an egg. she
tuI ned around TO o at II before she
began to cackle, but the patent nest
had hidden il out of sight. She was
somewhat surprised but thought she
had made a mistake, so laid another.
But again the same result occurred.
and when the a came TO o at
his hen there was a box full OK eggs,
and there was nothing left or tine hen
Int a few feathers. Now l should
think that If this milk-made-whhe-
you-wait theory were true that some
day the COW would forget when to
turn off the machinery. and there
would be nothing left OF the COW.
II is n fact not a theory, IA the
last milk or strippings that u COW
gives is the richest. Common chaps
like myself have accounted Tor TINS
fact by supposing that as the cow
made her milk constantly, and as the
cream was the lightest, some OF IL
must necessarily rise to the top or the
udder. and consequently be the last

theory given us by the doctors,

off her poorest first, and saves her bes,

The Advance in Wheat.

The continued firmness of wheat and
the Influence of the advance on the
general trade situation has served to
promote the revival of confidence and
better feeling in commercial circles
This cereal has had steady advance for
more than a month, but the most
marked increase has occurred since Sen
tember s, as from that date to October
the gain has been 10 cents bushel
or an average of : cent per bushel a
day. The chief cause of strength is
found IN the continued foreign demand.
Already the foreigners have bought
largely and ocean freights have been
engaged as far ahead as February
The outlook for this carrying trade has
caused a sharp advance in freight
rates, which are now quoted at higher
prices than have ruled for a long time.
The vessels are being pushed into the
Atlantic ports and loaded as rapidly
as possibly and all available bottoms
are being pressed into the service
whenever found. For a time it was
thought Spectators had interrupted
this foreign buying, as domestic prices
had been pushed considerably above
those ruling abroad, but evidently the
spectators understood the situation. for
the foreigners soon accepted the ad-
vance and took offerings freely. A
recent report gives the stock of wheat
at Liverpool as only ,496, 900 bushels.
a decrease of 500, 900 bushels since
September /, and said to be only suf-
ticient for about ten days consumption.
This is compared with holdings of
5000, GOO bushels at the same time last
year. Added to this are reports of a
short crop IN India and the announce
ment of engagements of wheat have
been made at San Francisco for ship
ment to Calcutta. With short supplies
in Russia and Argentina and possible
decrease of 10000, 900 bushels less than
estimated in the crop here, it is not
difficult to understand why the price
has advanced so sharply. It is the old
story of supply and demand and the
''crime of 1873" is not in it.-BaHi-

BURNED THE MORTGAGE.

The WOmen's Christian Temperance
Union Wednesday burned the mort
gage on the building No. 100 West
Eighteenth Street and also observed
the eighty-eight birthday of its honor
ary president Miss Annie Semple. At
ter Mrs. Matlack had prayed Miss NJ.
S. Hills explained the object of the
meeting. Mrs. Berlin read the history
of the occasion and was followed by
Bishop Coleman and Rev. A. N. Keig-
win in brief addresses. Then the mort
gage was burned.
Before the company separated Miss
Hills read a cablegram just received
from Miss Willard at Marseilles,
France, asking the Women's Christian
Temperance Union of Delaware if it
would pledge itself to care for thirty
Armenian refugees if sent to this
country. Miss Hills then read ex-
tracts from private letters received
some time ago, telling of the suferings
and distress of those who had been
forced by Turkish prosecutions to flee
from their homes. A warm response
to this appeal was given by those
present, many pledging themselves to
help raise money for 'he support of the
refugees till work should be found.

The Tscs of Tectnrinnn

Recently inquiries were sent out by
the state department to consular officers
in Europe asking fer information con-
corning the commercial product called
tectorium, which il described as fol-
lows:
TectOrium consists of a galvanized
iron web covered with gelatinous SUBJ
stance aud Is translucent but not trans,
parent. 1t is described by a manufac-
turer as a substance that, first, can be
bent without being broken; second, is
both tough and flexible third, is not
softened by the rays of the sun; fourth,
is nonsoluble; fifth, is not affected by
severe cold; sixth, is. a bad conductor
OF heat; seventh, is we'll adapted for
roofs on account Of its extreme light
ness; eighth, when exposed to the sun,
1t loses its original yellOwish color in
time and becomes harder and more dur
able; ninth, can be made, by very
cheap process, to initiate stained glass
III such manner that it cannot be dis
tinguished from the genuine article:
tenth, can be cut by shears, nailed to
wood ard transported without danger;
eleventh, can be easily repaired in case
1t is cut; twelfth, does not break, and
thirteenth, is well adapted for factory
windows and skylights for hothouses,
market halls, verandas, transportable
buildings and for roofing.
The consuls state that it is sold in
small quantities in a few places, but
that it is not known to the general pub
lio and as commercial product is still
an experiment.
