WEATHER AND CROPS.

Bureau for Oklahoma and Indian Ter

For the week ending Monday.
August IL. Light local show
ers over the western section,
portions of the southern and
eastern sections, and four cOun-
ties of the central section on
11th, 18th and 10th, cooled the
atmosphere some, and broughC
slight relief from the excessive
heat. These rains were in the
nature of thunderstorms and
extended over very limited /
areas, so that practically, the /
drouth throughout both teri'itor-
les remains mbroken, and the
devastating hot winds continue
with no present prospect OF
abatement. The mean tempera-
| ture for the week IS $40, 90
above normal. The maximum
has ranged from 9S to l0S.
The unfavorable conditions
noted in former. bulletins have
become more intensified. Late
corn is a failure, and has been
Leither topped and bladed or cut
off and shocked to save the
fodder. Hay making has ceased,
and the remaining uncut Is
mostly burned dry and Is worth
less. Pastures are poor and
there is much complaint of scar
: city of stock water.
Even Kaffir, millet and Sorg-
hum have stopped growing, and
e at some places Kat1ir is report
: ed firing; added to this, chinch
bugs are doing much damage
, in many places. The general
l impression prevails that ram
within the next two weeks Will
Il save these three crops. Sweet
0 potato vines are dying, and late
j. potatoes generally = failure.
/ Late grapes are drying up and
look like raisinS.

Henry hated war, not because Of it's

Dairy and Creamery.

Mr.. @. P. Goodrich reports in Hoard's
Dairyman a successful way to get rid Of
weed, garlic and wild onion favors in
milk. When the milk comes to the
creamery, all Of it is carefully smelled,
SO to speak. If any manifests the objec-
tionable havors named, it is carefully
set apart from the rest. It is run
through the separator alone and its
cream kept from the rest. The bad
smelling cream is then mixed with
twice its own quantity Of hot water in
which saltpeter has been dissolved. Put
one ounce of the saltpeter into three
gallons Of water. The water should be
at the boiling point. By this time the
temperature of the mixture will be at
about 100 degrees. 1t is run through the
separator again, and fine, thick
cream with no trace of weed flavor is
obtained. This is then cooled and ripen-
ed with the other cream. Mr.. Goodrich
calls this washing the cream, but it is
in reality very neat and effective way
of pasteurizing it.
The Babcock test must be in all cases
very carefully and thoroughly made.
1t is infallible only when it is made
just right and according to directions.
Arrange for milking matches at your
bounty fair. It will add more interest
to the occasion than any half a dozen Of
the fake shows usually in full blast at
such places. Denmark has milking con-
tests at her agricultural shows and last
year boy years old took one OF the
first premiums. The prize should be
given for clean and quick milking.
Much good cheese is spoiled by not
giving it time to cure, but hurrying it
on the market before it is ripe.
There was an unusual amount of bad
cheese put upon the market in 1896.
This hurt the trade fearfully in some
places.

Separator Ice Cream.

Ice cream can easily be made from
separated cream. Mr.. Vallancey E. Full
Ter, who has had experience with the
process, writes:
Heat the cream up close to boiling
point, but not SO much as to affect the
taste of the cream, just previous to
making the ice cream, and overcome the
difficulty Of its "churning' by the agi-
tation of the ice cream machine The
ice cream will be smoother, too, and be
improved in every way. The fat is set
free by this heating and will not, &C.
cording to my experience, gather into
granules. If the cream is heated as in
dictated, the thickest Of cream can be
used, whether from shallow pan, deep
can or separator. I am assuming that
pure cream is used in the making Of ice
cream. Be careful not to bring the
cream to the boiling point.

AT the present time Massachuseti
seems to have set the example and pace
for the country. According to recent
report of the Road Commission of that
Commonwealth. the total expenditure of
the State on its road work this year
has been $500, 900, and it is expected
that the Legislature will be asked for
$500, 900 for 1897. The commission has
has been in existence for only three years
and during that time 80 miles of i'm
proved highways have been constructed.
The fact that larger sum of money is
expected to be voted during the coming
year than in the present one is sufficient
evidence that the work done is satisfac-
tory to the people and is regarded as an
economy in every sense of the word.
1t is computed that in some districts
of Massachusetts there has been an av-
erage rise in the value of property along
| improved roads of over So an acre. 1t
is moreover estimated that the losses to
farmers in that State in hauling their
product over mud roads as compared
with the cost of hauling it over improved
roads amounts to more than enough to
pay for the improvements. 1t will be
soon, therefore, that as the profit in the
hauling of produce pays for the cost of
the road the advanced value in the land
is clear gain to the land owners.

ANOTHER project for the partition of
Turkey has been announced by the Lon
don Daily Ne,ps. The scheme contem-
plates the occupation by Russia of that
part of Turkey bounded by the Bos-
phorus on the west, the Black Sea on
the north and the Taurus Mountains.
on the south; the establishment of a
joint protectorate by the Powers over
Constantinople; the dismantling of the
forts of the Dardanelles; the opening OF
that channel. as well as of the Sea of
Marmora and the Bosphorus, to the free
navigation of the vessels of all nations,
including ships of war; and finally the
abdication of the Sultan. The plan is
incomplete however, inasmuch as it fails
to provide for the distribution of those
parts of the Sultan's Empire not assign
ed to Russian occupation. The DAILY
NelCs, morever, is in the habit of discov-
ering a new scheme for the dismember-
mentof Turkey about once in every fort
night; it might be well, therefore, to
suspend judgment upon its latest an
nouncement until the report shall have
been confirmed from other quarters.

HAVING succeeded so well at the last
session of the general assembly in secur-

ly, it is said the Standard Oil company
will make another effort, at the coming
meeting of the state legislature, in the
same direction. An attempt will bt
made to repeal the free pipe line law {
1888. That act grants all pipe lines the
right of eminent domain. 1t was secured
by the independent producers and re
finers after years of hard fighting. The
repeal of that law now would re,
move all competition in Pennsylvania
and make the monopoly of the Stand

THE American Manufacturer in its ed

The American Manufacturer in its edi,

outlook in the iron and steel trade:
On the whole the trade shows an i'm
provemen which, however, is in no way
pronounced. Eastern markets report
only fair business. Chicago reports a
lull in pig iron but no weaker prices.
In Cleveland pig iron sales are slower,
while no early advance is expected in
Cincinnati.
Locally the week has been uneventful.
In all lines there are Preparations made
for a greater production and larger de-
mand. Some lines, however, show a
tendency toward lower pnices. but there
has been no big drop, while somewhat
higher rates are being secured for future
business. The reported trouble in the
steel billet pool has had considerable
effect on the market during the last two
weeks.

tirety, and all Of the New Jersey and
