Maintaining the Milk Flow.

When cows arc given shade and cool
water in abundance they will require
less food to make the necessary milk
and flesh, hence the great value of q
shady pasture. When the grasses fail
they should be supplemented with fod-
Ter, corn, oats, rye or some other grain,
so that the normal flow of milk may be
maintained. If this be done no COM
olaint will be heard about the ingrati-
tude of animals, the milk shrinkage
Ind the losses of dairying. The cows
will not merely respond at once to bet
ser treatment, but they will be in good
condition for the fall campaign, in
stead of requiring till winter to re-
,uperate from the summer heat, flies,
;canty pasturage and insufficient wa
ter supply.

Connecticnt,s Road LAW.

Under the road law passed by the
late Connecticut legislature so towns
have applied to the state highway COM
mission for the authorized aid The
state pays one-third of the cost, the
county one-third and the town one
third. The appropriation is not equal
to the demands made on it. The Con-
necticut law differs from the New Jer-
sey in levying no special assessment on
the abutting property holders, so that
poorer localities which need the benc-
At most will not be deferred from ap-
plying for aid. BY this legislation
Connecticut is brought into line with
New Jersey in the good-road move
ment, and in advance of New York and
Massachusetts, while Pennsylvania,
says the Philadelphia Press, has nc
'ating as a good-road state, having not
yet made even beginning.

WIDE TIRES AGAIN.
For Many Farm Purposes They Are of
Positive Advantage.


A few days ago was talking with a
man who had given wide tires thor
ough trial, and he was loud in their
praise, though he did not claim as
much for them as some people do. He
said that he found them of no advan-
tage in time of very soft roads, as the
wheels would sink into the road at such
times II they were u foot wide, and the
larger amount of mud they would
carry would make up for any difference
in the depth they would cut.
When the weather IS very dry and
the ground hard, they are of no par
ticular benefit, either; but at all other
times they save horse-fesh and time,
by allowing heavier loads and rcquir-
ing less power.
| This man told me that for nine
months in the year he finds the wide
tire positive benefit, and for the other
three it is about an even thing. For
hauling over meadows and corn fields
the wide tire is very much superior
to narrow ones; and at times when
the roads are soft enough for the or
binary tire to sink from six to eight
inches into the road-bed, he can go
along easily with his wide tires.
l asked him if he thought the roads
would ever get as bad as they do If
everyone used wide tires. His reply
was that the roads in the country dis.
tricts of Illinois would be bad If no
one drove over them in soft weather,
but narrow tires, no doubt, made thcm
worse.
"rhey suit me-" he said in conclu-
sion, land good many of my neigh.
bors are getting over to my way OF
thinking; for l can haul as big loads
as any Of them when the roads are al
their worst, and much larger ones al
almost any other time."-Farm and
Fireside.

Feeding Cahh,re to Cows.

I have never had experience feeding
cabbage except to a very small extent
but / have known of men making &
large use of cabbage to feed milk cows
and they consider it excellent food for
milk production. Some parties who
make business of raising cabbage fol-
market carefully save all the refuse
such as leaves, stems and small, loose
heads, and sometimes, when the price
is low, nearly all their crop to feed tc
their cows, and they report very lnrg,
flow of milk in consequence. Some ado
this caution: "The flavor of the mill
may be injured If you feed too much; il
surely will be if the cabbage is partly
decayed. &C. p. Goodrich, in Prairie
Farmer.

sU,,ea IN A Mii,,, {
New English Machines QuicIs Work with
Storiiizcd MILK.

Sburiixcu MIX.
A wonderful dairy machine is said
to be on exhibition in England. This
machine, the invention Of Herr Salient
us, a Swedish engineer, makes butter
in about minute from sterilized milk
direct. The milk is heated In the ster
ilizer Tor Pasteurlne, as 1t is called to
16, degrees Fahrenheit, and runs
thence into the cream-skilnlning cham
Der of the machine. As the cream is
SKINNED it rises into the churning
chamber, being cooled down to so de-
grees In its progress by means Of very
small cooling frames, thu ongh which
iced water constantly passes, and which
rcvolve with the skinner at the rate
of 5000 revolutions yer minute. The
cream is forced into tube, perforated
with tiny holes, through which it
energies with great force on to each
fresh layer of cream that rises, convert
ing it into butter by conclusion. The
butter thus formed in granules
energies from q spout into tub, mixed
with buttermilk. When all the churn-
ing is done wooden stirTer is passed
UP and down gently for two or three
minutes, to make the butter separate
from the greater part of the buttermilk.
The butter Is then taken out and pissed
through butter worker, which
squeezes out most of the buttermilk
remaining in it, after which it is placed
on ice for two hours, and then worked
! ! little more and made up. Several ad.
vantagas are claimed for this remark
! able machine, which bids fair to create
revolution in butter making upon a
large scale In the first place, by Pas
touring the milk, disease germs, If any
are in it, are destroyed, as well as the
microbes which cause the putrefaction
of the butter. The process of butter
making is so rapid that there is very
little chance of any germs that may
exist in the atmosphere of the dairy
getting into the butter, especially as
all, or nearly all, air must be forced out
of the chambers of the machine by
cheaper temporary ice-houses can be
going on inside. When the butter is
once pressed the possibility of germ
impregnation is almost eliminated.
Thus wholesome and bookkeeping
butter is produced. Another advantage
is that milk can be converte into but
ter directly after beirg obtained from
| thu nou and vat opoiha,. &c {I,o@ 4ba,o
is considerable saving of labor, when
the use of the radiator" is compared
with that Of the ordinary separator and

COST OF BAD ROADS.
Estimates Show That 5000, 900 Year
Might BE Saved.

Might Be Saved.
The office of road inquiry of the de-
partment of agriculture has completed
an interesting investigation relating
to the common roads of the United
States. Returns have been received
from 1900 counties, showing the aver
age length of haul from farm to mar
Lets or shipping points to be IL miles,
the average weight Of load for two
horses 1000 pounds, the average cost
per ton per mile 25 cents, and So for the
entire haul. Estimating the farm prod
ucts at 219,624,227 tons in weight and
making estimates on other articles car
ried over the public roads, it is calcu-
lated that the aggregate expense Of
this transportation in the United
States is $946, 414,665 per annum
Reports have been asked from the
United States consuls abroad of the ex-
pense of hauling where the roads are
good, so as to render possible calcu-
lation which will show how much Of
this vast outlay is due to bad roads.
The estimate is ventured, however,
that, counting the loss of time in reach
ing markets, the enforced idleness and
wear and tear to the live stock and
hauling machinery caused by poor
roads, two-thirds of the cost might
be saved by an improvement of the
roads,

KNOWLEDGE

Brings comfort and Improvement and
tends to personal enjoyment when
rightly used. The many, who live bet
ter than Others and enjoy life more, with
less expenditure, by more promptly
adapting the worlds best products to
the needs of physical being, will attest
the value to health of the pure liquid
laxative principles embraced in the
remedy, Syrup Of Figs.
Its excellence is due to its presenting
in the form most acceptable and pleas
ant to the taste, the refreshing and truly
beneficial properties of perfect lax
alive; effectually cleansing the system,
dispelling colds, headaches and fevers
and permanently curing constipation.
1t has given satisfaction tc millions and
met with the approval of the medical
profession, because 1t acts on the Kid
neys, Liver and Bowels without weak
ening them and it is perfectly free from
every Objectionable substance.
Syrup of Figs is for sale by all drug

road in repair is not nearly so great as
the expense of rebuilding a road that
neglect has allowed to sink into state
of decay.
The poplars along these French roads
are trimmed to certain height so that
sun and air can dry the surface, which
is high in the center, thus allowing wa
ter to flow off at once, after shower.
This is then conducted by channels cut
through the turf at each side, into the
deep bitches outside of the row OF
trees at the side of the roadway.

Teaching the Calf to Drink.

Teaching the calf to drink is very
easy at first; the difficulty increases
with age. A properly prepared ration
furnished at suitable times will insure
better thrift and growth, without a
check, than if weaving be deferred
until later. Milk drawn by the cali
from its dam, in the natural way, fol
several weeks or months, will make q
fatter calf, but for dairy usefulness il
is no letter for that and it is useless
expense, for in weanng an. older call
most of the fat and surplus flesh is
lost in the process.
