Key to Dairy Success.

Work, steady faithful work, with
head and hands and heart, is the key
to success in dairying. We must throw
ourselves into the fight with well-con-
sidered judgment. We must know that
why those in other kinds of business
succeed is that they take advantage
Of every circumstance that can be
brought to favor them. We know that
it is only in excessive production, in the
greatest economy and in the utmost ac-
tfvity Of exchange that the possibility
Of great success lies, and the farmer
must not only work with all his mind
and with all his strength but he must
work for the love of money, and as
only the love Of money can make
him work. In manufactures, the
helpless men have become the op-
in trade they are the broken
down clerks, in farming they are the
hand to mouth farmers who count for
Just 50 much as their labor is worth
and no more. We can do nothing for
hem but try to help them to sufficient
energy to wake up and help themselves.

In regard to the perches for poultry.
I ind my plan suits very well. It also
keeps the house clean, which must not
be considered q matter Of small i'm
portance. I give my plans as follows:
I have trestles eighteen inches high,
then have platform to place upon the
trestles, which makes a strong bench.
The platform is made of matched lum-
Der, thereby letting no dirt fall through
ON the floor. At each end Of the plat
form Il Z rest six inches high, upon
which the roosts rest. They are NOV
able, 50 that they can be taken out and
put back In few minutes. The roosts
arc strips one by three, all on a level. I
think this width the best, as a fowl,
when on the perch, sits with its breast
bone ON the roost. And for young
chicks. know a small round perch

United States Cavalry Horses


The annual report of the quartermas-
ter general contains some items that are
OF interest. Among other remarks he
says that the contract system for the
supply of horses continues to give gen.
eral satisfaction and the standard has
been gradually improved since the sys-
tenn was adopted. The average cost
OF cavalry horses during the year was
$95.44, and that Of artillery horses
$14S.O4. Our cavalry mount of to-day
excels that Of any previous time. and
all Information gathered tends to show
that 1t Is superior to that of foreign
countries. The cessation of Indian
wars and hostilities on the Rio Grande
have rendered it unnecessary to fur
Their maintain post transportation on a
field campaign basis, and in October
last orders were issued for a new al
lowance Of draft and pack animals for
several military departments, and di-
recting the sale of all surplus animals.
This reduction in the number of ami
mails, wagons, harness, ETC., will effect
saving in the appropria-
ton. The average cost of team horses
during the year was $167.S3 and Of
mules $114.64. The reduction in num-
Der by reason Of sale, death, etc, was
l ,422 cavalry and artillery horses, LOSS
mules; this left on hand at the end OF
the year 6,189 cavalry and artillery
horses, 247 team horses and mules

dairy needs you. Any fool can't man
age the dairy and dairy cattle success
fully. A high order of intelligence ant
executive ability is needed here.
A good many dairymen think it moi
good plan to have the cows eating
while being MIXED 1t depends largely
as to how the cows have been trained
COWS that are accustomed to eating
while being MIXED, are not so much in
cilned to give down their milk as freely
unless SO fed. The cow is an animal
that Is largely Influenced by training
and habit. Any change Of management
IN feeding and milking, affects the milk
flow.
Dampness in dairy houses should be
studiously avoided. Dampness pro-
duces fungoid growth. not only devel-
oping but increasing organic germs;
and there are, when the conditions are
favorable, countless invisible germs
noat1ng In the air to attack the milk
and spoil it and the butter. Then be-
ware Of damp floors. A little lime scat
tered around, or placed in box in the
dairy house, will absorb large quanti-
ty of the moisture. But the first i'm
portant step to take is to see to the
drainage; see that it is as perfect as
possible.
The barrel. rectangular. or square box
churn. insures better quality of but
ter than the old dash churn; it is doubt
full if one could make gilt edged but
ter with the dash churn.
Beware of these patent churn fellows
that guarantee the butter to come in 10
and Is minutes in their special churn.
make choice article of butter the
churning should be protracted at least
30 minutes. Those who make gilt
edge" butter that sells at fancy prices
the year round, usually churn SO slow
~ and carefully that the butter rarely
comes under 40 or so minutes. II the
3utter does come in the churn in less
lime than 30 minutes, it is at the ex-
pense Of quality.
1t is one thing to make large yield
OF butter: it is another thing to make
such butter as will command the high
est market price.
When milk is set in open pans, the
of the dairy room should
be 60 degrees. In summer hot weather,
the temperature in large per cent of
Southern dairy houses is away up
yonder, from 20 degrees up. The conse-
quence is that the milk sours before
the cream is all raised, and much but
ter is lost. Again, the quality of the
butter is second or third class. In this
extreme Southern climate the cream
separator gives highly satisfactory re-
suits and insures the best possible
quality of product in hot as well as COOL

Two Dogs Whipped by SparFOws.
One of the queerest battles ever wit
messed took place near Nashville be-
tween two dogs and flock of English
sparrOws under a big tree. The dogs
began the attack. and the way In
which they barked and snapped and
tore up the earth impressed the spec
tatOrs with the fact that victory was
theirs. But it wasn't. The sparrOwS
rose like a cloud and came down like
an avalanche. ami in less than two
rounds the dogs were down on their
backs and scrambling to escape. Each
had lost an eye, and were otherwise
so pecked and SCARED that q commit
tee Of men had to rush in and carry
them out of danger. leaving the SPAR
