FRESH COWS NEEDED.
stearine Fats Are Bound to Predominant
in Shippers Milk.

in Shippers Milk.
The professional instructors in but.
termaking have had time of it in ex.
planning why certain creamery is
troubled with the body of it's butter
the commission firm saying that the
body is short and brittle and crumbles
badly in retailing. One says there is
TOO much water in it, one says it Was
worked too cold, one questions if the
feed did not do the bad job, etc. 1t is
not easy for the creamery men to get to
the bottom facts in all cases, as they
do not know how the cows are handled
A private dairyman finds that feed does
effect the hardness of the butter fats,
that a warm water bath after washing
the butter will soften it so it will not
be so brittle, but the main reason for
hard fats and brittle body is the lack
of fresh cows. When the strippers are
dried and fresh cows take their place
this trouble disappears. Stearine fats
predominant in shippers milk al
truly as they do when cottonseed is fed,
and more warmth is required to soften
the hard fats in either case, but the
butter cannot be made quite so good
anyhow, as butter from fresh cows

Presents to Men.

There is always some girl who needs
a hint as to points of etiquette which
to her more fortunate sister are per-
fectly obvious. One such hint is the
advice: DO not give presents TO any
young man not in your FAMILY, unless
indeed you are engaged to him. Every
girl knows this is bad form" but some
times the longing to give fancied
pleasure, the desire to offer some re-
membrance, grows too strong for the
conventional laws of good breeding
Especially when there has been no very
strict training in them. The gift is
sent with fear and trembling and a
guilty sense of improperly, and the
man receives it with surprise as his
very mildest sensation. Every man
who has the least delicacy of mind will
be somewhat offended and say to him
self, if not to another: 81 would give
anything if she had not done that. y
A man without delicacy will sometimes
sink so low as to laugh at the girl, make
her gift the subject of conversation
and be assured by it that the tender
passion has been walked to tremendous
ROVER in favor of his unworthy self
When one thinks how any girl would
shrink as from burning flame at this
Interpretation, the plea for no presents
to men cannot be made too strong.

Economic Features of orchardinr.

When considered in connection with
farming, trees give the advantage of the
use of overhead space that cannot be
otherwise utilized at all. Small areas in
great cities that are sold for fortunes
are used to erect structures to utmost
limits of corporate laws. Cut orchard
trees to the ground and it will be found
that they occupy as much space on the
ground as in the air. The overhead
space is brought into economic use. The
trees can make use of space and forces
in it which otherwise will avail a planter
nothing. The ground while best if kept
in high state Of cultivation, can be
cropped with leguminous crops, and
made runs for calves, shoats, poultry,
and the orchard itself made wind.

After wandering around for awhile
they sold four coonskins at Il grocery
for cash enough to let them into the

Jim was holding on to him, but he
wrenched himself loose, cracked his
heels and whooped and the next minute
he was mixed up with the camel. A
cloud of dust and hay and hair half
blinded the spectators, but the old man
suddenly shot out of it, rolled over and
over under the cage of the Bengal tigei
and finally brought up against sacred

PlG-FEEDING TESTS.
Results of Experiments at the Danish Ex-
perjment Station

Results of Experiments at the Danish Ex-
pertinent Station.
The following are the results of &c
series Of trials during five years, with
1903 pigs in all, separated into 175 lots,
conducted at the Danish agricultural
experiment station. Whey for pigs
has greater feeding value, pound for
pound, than turnips. Corn and skim
milk is great stuff TO make pigs grow
fast and fat, but the pork is rather soft,
hence substitute barley for the corn
when the pigs weigh 1875 pounds, and
the quality of the flesh, if killed at
1875 pounds weight, will be improved,
and the shrinkage is no larger. Barley
alone gave better results than when
sunfower seed oil cake was substituted
for part of it. One pound of barley
equaled in pork producing power six
pounds of skim milk or IL pounds OF
whey. Young pigs weighing 80 to rs
pounds required 3a4 pounds of grain,
OF its equivalent in milk or whey to
make one pound increase; at $50 to 200
pounds, about five pounds was needed
and old hogs weighing over 200 pounds
consumed 6 to 61a pounds of grain
for each pound of increase in weight
The animals ate but slightly more in
winter than in summer, but it required
nearly half a pound more grain feed
for one pound of grain in winter than
III summer. There was no marked diff.
ference between the food required pei
pound of grain in light and heavy feed
ing. Nor was there any difference
between the rate or cost OF grain in
barrows or sows.

The Improvement of Roads Is by No
Means Local Issue.
There is not man, woman or child
in the land that has not a personal
interest in the question of bettefroads.
There is no article produced, imported
Or exported, the cost of which is not
in some degree affected by the char
acter of the common roads over which
it is transported from the field, the
mine, the mill or the shop to the user or
consumer, and the worse the roads over
which it is transported the less it
yields the producer, and the more it
costs the user or consumer; and the
loss thus borne year after year by the
entire people of the nation is SO enor-
nous that it cannot be reasonably APP
proXinated. 1t costs less to transport
commodities across the continent by
rail, or from continent to continent by
water, than it does over a single mile
of our common roads during nearly hal {
the year.

must necessarily depend upon complex
conditions, and it is not often that the
one is selected that offers the least re-
sistance to traction.
The kind of material at hand, its
durability, the kind of traffic to be &C
commodated, all enter into the ques-
ton of selection.
The use of material that will insure a
permanent, smooth surface, wet or dry,
and unaffected by frosts, besides being
obtained at reasonable price, is to be
commended.
While the results given above arc
approximate, as the exact tractive force
varies over the same road, probably
every day in the year, and very prob
ably no two roads are exactly the

Attributes Of n Good Farmer.

The Southern Farm Gazette asserts
that no man is good farmer who does
not at least maintain year in and year
out the average productiveness and
fertility of his farming lands. 1t is
not hard thing to do this either for
any intelligent farmer. Little better
can be expected of an ignorant negro
tenant than to make it his invariable
rule to squeeze out of the soil all that
the soil win bear, paying back nothing
in the way of plant food for future
crops, practicing the plan of soil rob
berry as matter of course, but we
surely expect better things of intelli'
gent white farmers and land owners.

wonderful experiences with your prepare
ton, DR.. Williams Pink Pills for Pale Peo-

practitioners do not as rule, recognize,
much less, use preparations Of this kind,
consequently the body OF them have no
definite knowledge of their virtue or lack
OF 1t, but soundly condemn them all without
q trial. Such course is manifestly absurd
and unjust, and l, for one, propose to give
my patients the best treatment known to
me, for the particular disease with which
they are suffering, no matter what it is
where or how obtained. was first brought
to prescribe DR.. Williams Pink Pills about
two years ago, after having seen some re-
markable results from their use. Reuben

hear his physician announce that his case

A FARMERS COMPASS.
Little Implement That rs Useful for
Variety of Purpoaas.

Little Implement That Is Usefui for
Variety of Purposes.
Enclosed please find a diagram of a
farmers compass, little implement
which find very handy in setting
buildings, squaring up fields, etc, Take
pine board Is or 20 inches square; lay
eff perfect square and put brad in
each corner. Draw lines d.agonally
across so DIS to find the exact center, and
drive brad in it. File sharp, and be
sure they line up exactly. Fasten Il
sharpened stick or post to the board, or
nail the board securely TO a stake, and
the implement is done.
In this country northwestern Ohio,
where the land is laid off by range or
section, it is easy to run lines at right
angles to the roads. BY setting the
compass so the brads will range with a
given line and by looking across the
other way you have right angle, and
by setting stakes in range you can run
as many angles as you choose.
The idea is not original with me. |
