The dairy articles given on the
fourth page are selected with great
care by Mr.. Bixby from some of the
hest periodicals on dairy farming in
the Northwest, and are worthy of the
careful attention of every farmer, and
especially those interested in the
creamery, A column or two will be
devoted to this industry every week
for the special benefit of those farm
ers who do not take any papers of
that kind; and farmers who do take
an agricultural paper or two will find
it worthy of attention as the selections
are taken from dozen or more differ
