In glancing at this column
you may take it to be only an
other of Saur & Balsley's ad-
vertisements and not give it a
fair reading. But you read
much stuff that is more worth
less than any Of these adver-
tisements, and whatever you
read is worth reading only to
the extent it may benefit you.
Now we have a few plain
statements to make in refer
ence to Saur & Balsley's Drug

of the state is there a town
the size of Napoleon which
contains a larger or better
drug and book store. Every
thing in the drug and book
line Is kept and can be pro-
cured at all hours. We have

Driving BaciIIi Out If MIX.

The New York board Of health has
been using Il small machine, worked
on the centrifugal principle, as a meth
cd of determining the amount of fat
in samples of milk. The machine sim
ply whirls the milk around at a high
velocity. throwing the lighter, or the
cream, to the center, and the milk,
clear of fat or cream, to the outside.
by Il simple scale, the relative amount
of fat to the whole quantity of milk
can Ec asccrtained. Large machines,
on the same principle are used in big
diaries. and these, it is believed by the
medical experts of the board, can be
used as a means of Kidding milk of
impurities. and possibly of haCilli.
DIR. Martin says he has foun'l that
after a thousand quarts of milk had
been strained through the finest
strniuei, and then passed through the
finest muslinn, there was still Il con
siderable quantity of dirt in it.. If
this milk were put into q centrifugal
machine, out of 1000 quarts, a double
handful of filth of the b%arnyard would
be shaken out. The process seems to
make the milk more digestible, partial
ly SteriliZes it. and enables it TO keen
several days longer than the milk
which has not been treated. AT one
time the farmer was wont to keep
some of the found Oh the outer
cdge-after the cream-skimming pro-
cess-to feed to his hogs. 1t gave So
many of them the tuberculosis and
killed them that he gave it up. This
encourages the assumption that centri-
fugas straining runs out bacilli as
well as dirt. The benefit of this pro-
cess to the public would be immense.
but until it is made compulsory by
law, Dr.. Martin sees no probability of
its general adoption. 1t would add
only about one-eighth of a cent a quart
to the price of the milk, and the farm,
er would not think he was paid for
hlG extra trouble. Besides, the con,
umer knows nothing OF dirt. SO he
swallows it and does not complain. +

We that some writer's recommend
farmers to resort to one system of
Dreaming milk at home, to test the
cream each day for it's butter value,
and then send it to a butter factory
to be churned instead of hauling milk
both ways in all kind Of weather. Why
not churn the cream at home and re-
tain the buttermilk, after all the labor
and trouble of Dreaming. and save the
hauling Of the cream and the testing
Of its butter value as we'll as the haul
ing Of the milk? When the cream is
separated from the milk, the work
of butter-making is far on the road to
completion. while hauling the cream to
the factory does not better the con-
dition nor improve the quality of the
cream. If saving of work to the wife
and family is the point aimed at, is
not the burden left at home, in clean.
ing cans and other apparatus. when the
cream is sent to the factory? Would
not the testing and carrying of it equal
the work of %churning? Patronizing a
factory or creamery, when all Is con
sidered, looks like working very hard
to get rid Of work and to give some
one else a share in the profits of the
business.-T. D. Curtis.

A Little Too Economic.

A gentleman residing in New York
recently hired a colored boy for a
valet. The boy proved Il valuable ac-
QUESTION in everything except one,
and that was his practice Of economy.
He was forever endeavoring to save
money for his employer. One day he
was SEN to get some letters stamped
and to post them. Upon his return
the gentleman asked him if he had at
tended to it all right. The boy re-
piled: 'I's found a lot of gcmmen
getting stamps. and as they didn't
charge them anything to put the let
tiers in the slot, l saved you twenty
cents. cause l slipped yours in without
stamps The colored boy was too
economic. and he was dispensed with.

That the uiind can 40 influence tile

Not ollly was there a wound, but it

Other well attestcd proofs of this pow

1t will not hurt any animal that is

have materially. A very great deal
may be done in this way in a few

Churning Whole MIX.


Circumstances compelling me to be-
come a butter maker, will YOU enlight-
On ME whether it is better to separate
the cream from the milk and churn
only the former. Or to ripen the whole
milk and churn that?
In response to the above inquiry di-
rected to the Country Gentleman. that
paper replies as follows: Our CORE
spOndent does not tell us how much
milk he has, and hence We cannot give
an intelligent answer. Though churn-
ing whole milk has been practiced on
a large scale in Northern Germany
and also In Scotland, we do not be-

Just as fine butter can he made, but
not more than by the old Swimming
processes, and not as much as by skim
ming by centrifugal force. The writer
of this used sometimes to warm the
cream by adding fresh whole milk to
the cream jar when he could not get
enough cream In three days to make a
churning; but in view Of the latterday
experience with churning rich cream
at a low temperature. we can recon.
mend this plan only in exceptional
cases. AS to churning whole milk
alone. we cannot recommend it. unless
indeed there is d good sale for the ut-
usual quantity of buttermilk: or, pos
sibly, in warm climates where the
milk would sour before the cream

Cutting Ice by Electricity.

The feasibility and economy of the
electric ice cutter has been satisfac-
torily demonstrated during the har-
vcsting of the late ice crop. One form
of the machine. which was tested q
few days ago in New Hampshire, gave
excellent results. \ speed of 100 feet
a minute was obtained. at which rate
a groove 8 inches deep was cut. The
apparatus resembles a moving ma
chine. with a sled in front of the
wheels. Directly under the seat Is a
motor, which drives by means of a belt
a circular saw placed in front of the
machine, and also by the action of
friction wheels the moving machine
wheels which propel the machine. A
guide Il n in the last groove cut,
which directs the machine and makes
the cuts parallel. The current is con-
veyed through flexible conductors
which drag over the ice. The whole
apparatus weighs about the same as
IN ordinary horse, and the operator in
his moving machine seat can, by the
mean of levers, direct the motion of
the machine and vary the depth of the
cut from n inch to nine inches. The
next step in the development of ice
cutting appliances will probably be
an electric Ice planer. The Americans
are now taking to skating with an
eagerness which promises to bring it
into the first rank Of national winter
pastimes, and the possessors of onv
niently located sheets of water are
finding that by paying attention to
their skating grounds they can be sur
of a steady and in many cases a hand
some income while the frost lasts. But
the skater who pays admission to a
sheet of ice insists on having it / ned
at least once a day. The operation as
now carried on by horses is absur1ly
slow, and unless a large number of
ice plows are used, it is difficult to
plane the whole of an extensive sheet
of leo within the time allotted. An
electric ice planer would remedy this.
1t would enable the dressing up of the
i;e to be done possibly In one-fourth
of the time, and it would be one of the
most popular machines of the winter
SCaSOu.
