and citric acids; that of the grape from
a mixture of malic and tartaric acids;
that of the mango from citric and
very fugitive essential oil; that of the
tamarind from mixture of citric, NAL
ic and tartaric acids; the flavor of the
asparagus from aspartic acid, found
also in the root of the marshmallow,
and that of the cucumber from pc
culiar poisonous ingredient called fun
gin, which is found in all fungi, and
is the cause of the cucumber being
offensive to some stomachs.
1t will be observed that rhubarb is
the only fruit which contains binoxalate
of potash in conjunction with an acid.
Beet root owes its nutritious quality to
about nine per cent. of sugar which it
contains, and it's flavor is peculiar
substance, containing nitrogen mixed
with poetic acid.
The carrot owes it's fattening pow
ers also to sugar, and it's flavor to pc
culiar fatty oil; the horseradish derives
it's flavor and blistering power from a
volatile acrid oil. The Jerusalem arti-
choke contains 14R per cent. OF sugar
and three per cent. of inuiin "a variety
of starch), besides gum and peculiar
substance to which it's flavor is owing,
and lastly, garlic and the rest of the
onion family derive their peculiar odor
from a yellowish, volatile acrid oil. but
they are nutritious from containing
nearly half their weight of gumny
and glutinous substances not yet clear

THE AMERICAN DAIRY.
Destined to Become More Prominent from
Year to Year.

Destined to Become More Prominent from
Year to Year.
The dairy promises about as well
if not better than any other branch
of farm industry. The well defined
disposition of legislators is to put
Il stop to the competition of imitation
hutterv- the chief complaint against
W hich has been that it is sold as genu
inc butter. There is not much to fear
on the part of dairymen with respect
to oleomargarine competition if every
pound of the stuff is sold for just what
it is. No person who has studied it's
character will care to eat it; and the
average consumer, even if he is ignor-
ant of the character of oleomargarine,
wants no imitation butter on his bread.
But Notwithstanding The laws that
have been enacted providing for the
plain marking of imitation butter,
thousands of pounds are consumed on
clearinghouse, hotel and restaurant
tables by those who suppose that they
are eating butter, and every pound of
it takes the place of the honest prod
uct. The disposition, we repeat, is to
put stop to this fraud, and probably
within year there will be universal
legislation to accomplish this, and it
will be greatly to the interests of the
dairy. The fact, too, is becoming more
generally recognized that the dairy is
less drain upon the soil than almost
any other branch of farming, and this
is leading to the adoption of dairying.
Then there is the old fact being more
deeply impressed all the time that
dairy products are of comparatively
small bulk and can be more easily and
more cheaply shipped than other prod
ucts of the farm. To all this may be
added that winter dairying is being
more and more generally followed, and
as it is adopted, the profits of the bnsi-
ness are greatly increased; and while
there is Frightening future for beef
production, it may be clearly seen that
the American dairy will become more
and more prominent.-Farmer's Voice.

A GOOD INVESTMENT.
Wherever Good Roads Are Built Property
Increases in Value.

Wherever Good Roads Are Built Property
Increases in Value.
The matter of building good roads
has passed the stage of mere agitation
in some states and the work of con-
struction has been commenced and with
very satisfactory results.
At the Good Roads congress recently
held in Atlanta, Ga, the testimonials
offered in regard to the actual money
profit to farms and other property
along which good roads have been built
was astonishing. Farms that were slow
Fale three years ago at low price were
readily sold since rock roads had been
built at an advance that had more than
paid the total expense of building the
roads through the farms and the pay
ment for the road construction is not
due for years yet, and is then distrib-
uted over series of years so that the
burden will be very light to the new
owners.
The past season has been so dry
throughout so large part of our coun.
try that the necessity and benefit of
hard roads have not been appreciated
as much as they would have been had
the season been one of ordinary or ex-
traordinary wetness. 1t is not at all
likely that the future will give us all
dry seasons and it is better to improve
the roads now while they are dry and
labor and material is cheap.
In states. where there is not proper
legislation to further the building of
good hard roads it is a good time to
work on public opinion and push the
claims of good roads upon such legisla-
lures as may be in session the coming
winter.
Good roads are needed, good roads
pay, and good roads can be had if all
who should be interested in them will
vv0rIr them Harm MILL -.

Mark the boards of the pairs and take
them apart. Over the inside of one
half o: each stretch a piece of drum
head and fasten securely around the in
ner edge with small tacks, C. Put on
the other halves and screw firmly to-
gether. When the beads are thorough
ly dry they will be very hard and res
onant. Find the center of the heads,
and with a sharp instrument make
a hole the size of a pin in both. The tel
ephonc is then ready to put up. Make
a hole three-fourths of an inch in diam
eter through the side of the house
where the wire is to enter. Draw the
wire, No. 10 copper, through the hole
from the outside, and fasten the end
TO a stick to prevent it from drawing
out.
Between the houses the wire may be
hung on trees, buildings or poles, with
pieces of large, loose cord. 1t is pos
sible to go around corner by fasten-
ing the wire often and making the
curve gradual, but the straighter the
line the better it will work, and IL
must enter the house as nearly at right
angles as possible. The wire should
not touch any hard substance in any
place, for as the operation of the tele-
phone depends upon the vibration of
the wire anything that tends TO stop
the vibrations will tenG to prevent it's
working successfully. Make the open
ing and secure the wire in the house
at the other end of the line in the same
manner as at the first. 1t is we'll to go
over the line two or three times, draw
ing the wire as tight as possible and
taking up the slack at both ends. When
the wire is tight. have sc me one hold it
firmly just outside the IN st house; take
out the stick and put the wire through
the hole in one of the vibrators, draw
it tight and fasten by putting the end
though a plain, fiat button and tying
a knot. at C. The tension on the wire
will hold the vibrator so firmly that
two small nails driver in the wall I'M
der it tn prevent it from slipping down,
is all the fastening necessary. Put
the other vibrator in position at the
other end of the line and the telephone
is ready for use.
DO not be discouraged if it does not
work very we'll at first, for often the
wire will touch at some place that has
been overlooked. The vibrators must
be at right angles with the wire, or
the wire will draw and cut the drum
heads. A new wire will probably
stretch after a time and need tighten
ing. for a loose wire will not vibrate. In
the winter loose cloth may be tackled
around the wire where it enters the
house. Lines have been made to work
successfully for one mile over rough
ground, and it is interesting to see
how quickly the vibrations will go over
that distance. The call is made by
rapping on the button with any con-
yenient articIe.-Orange Judd Farmer.

ORCHARD AND GARDEN.

Use the best and finest manure in the
garden.
1t is not easy to make the soil too rich
for gardening.
Parsnips are considered the better for
little freezing.
Never take large limbs from tree
when it can be avoided.
Unbleached wood ashes are one Of the
best fertilizers for grapes.
A mound of earth around the base of
a tree will protect it from mice.
Trim the raspberries by cutting out
all dead wood and unthrifty canes.
A part of the food of plants comes
from the atmosphere; the rest from the
soil.
Save all of the wood ashes. They are
valuable to use as top dressing in the
garden.
When manure is applied to the or
chard take pains to incorporate it thor
oughly with the soil.
In pruning all kinds Of trees it is well
to remember that diseased wood will
never become sound.
Ihere are no snort cuts In Iru1C grow
ing. The plants must be set out, he
well cared for, SO as to secure thrifty
growth. snd in due time they will bear
fruit.
Phosphorus in the Brain.
The human brain contains a consid-
cradle proportion of phosphorus, vary
ing from one-twentieth to one
thirtieth of the entire mass. If the
average weight of the Caucasian brain
be taken at 47H ounces. it will then con-
tain an amount of phosphorus amount
ing from 7-l2 to 2ss ounces. A curious
fact regarding this phosphorus in the
human brain is that it is almost
entirely wanting in the brain matter of

FARM TELEPHONE.

One That Can Be Put Up for q Dollar and
Fifty Cents.
A simple telephone that is well adapt
ed for use in country places OF small
villages, between houses not more than
a quarter of mile apart, can be made
by anyone, and the cost need not be
more than $3.50. A line of this kind
has been in constant use for Is years
and still works better than the ordi-
nary electric telephone, while the OK
pense of keeping it in repair has been
nothing. The distance is about 20
rods and the line straight and level.
To make a telephone of this kind
cut out four pieces, a, each inches
square, from half-inch board that
has been planed on both sides. Any de-
sired wood can be used. From sthe
center of each. with a radius of two
inches describe a circle, b. Fasten
the pieces together in pairs, crossing
the grain. and cut around the circle
with scroll or keyhole saw. From
drumhead ian old one is just as good),
cut two pieces about inches in diane
ter, and soak them in water that is
slightly warm, until they are soft.

DAIRY SUGGESTIONS.

The cow will utilize a peck and a
half of potatoes day at least. Feed
III three feeds.
Stop up the cracks in the stable by
some means. Nail laths over them or
thatch with straw.
The Pittsburgh oleo dealers have
quit business by the advice of their at
torneys. Good thing.
Vary the cows feed in winter as
much as possible. Some cows are fed
one ration all winter, and it is not The
best thing to do.
Shredded corn folder is growing in
popularity. Dairymen find it first
class, and horse owners in the towns
are beginning to seek it.
In considering the profit of butter
making we should take into considera-
ton that butter takes but little from
the soil, less than any other farm prod
uct.
We are asked if shredded corn fodder
is as good as ensilage. Not for some
purposes. and perhaps not for any pur-
pose. But shredded corn fodder is a
grand good thing.-Farmer's Voice.
