CAMEL'S EXPERIENCE.

Sat Down So Much That His Ainh
Legs Became Useless.
4 large camel which was landed at
IIoboken few days ago from the
Bremen line steamer Dresden had an
experience which probably never before
fell to the lot of a ship OF the desert
lie made the voyage in II large box,
and as there wasn't room enough in Ii
fcl any self-respectinganimal the camel
Fat down in sheer disgust. lie sat thai
t,ay for days and days while the ship
rolled and made all sorts OF heavy
weather.
When the detected animal was finally
landed and tried to stand up, hecouldnf
use his rear props at all. They had be
come paralyzed with their long stay in
cramped position. The camel wasn't
any good, it seemed, and, as Il big price
had been paid for him, there was gen
eral lamentation. The camel was "in"
on the lamentations. Such a pciure OF
VOC was never seen in Hobokcn.
At last a genius suggested radical
cure. The camel, by his advice, was
placed in q sling and hosted M until
only his toes touched che ground. lie
padded the air for a spell with his fore
legs, and finally the rear Tsops came to
life and joined in the exercise. They
lowered him to the floor, and, after he
had tested his rear legs somewhat gin
gerly, he was as good as new. But lie
doesn't sit down any more. Once was
enough for him.

There is man somewhere on the
South side who knows more about the
theory and practice Of finance than he
did few days ago and all he did to gain
the knowledge was to jump Off street
car and pick up nickel which he saw
lying on the street, says the Chicago

Relating the circumstances later to a
friend he said:
Its funny what fools some men are.
l saw that nickel after had paid my

jumped off and picked it up it would
make up for the nickel 1 had already
given the conductor. Having plenty OF

Then I began TO figure little. The

VALUAELE TESTS.
Thcy Establish the True Value OF
milk Fat IN Cheese Making.

.,iicy Establish the True Value OF
milk Fat IN Cheese Making.
The relation of milk fat to yield of
cheese and the consequent value Of milk
fat as basis in paying fog milk for
cheesemaking, is the subject OF Bulle-
tin 10 of the New York experimental
station at Geneva, n. Y. The contents
arc based upon the results secured by
making analysis of the milk of so herds
OF COWS, whose milk was taken to
cheese factory. The work covered an
entire cheese making season of six
months, from May to October. 1t is
shown that in general the cheese yield
is somewhat greater for pound of fat
in poor milk than in rich milk. For eX-
ample, comparing two milks contain
ing respectively three and four per cent.
OF fat, the former makes 2.65 pounds Of
cheese for each pound of milk fat, while
the latter makes OBS pound less or 2.GO
pounds of cheese for enc pound of fat.
It is shown that this difference in favor
Of cheese yield for fat in poor milk is
only an apparent one, because this diff
ference of OPS pound is made up of
casein and water, which is really not as
valuable as separator skimmilk cheese,
and which has market value not to

exceed two cents per Pound. The con-
stituents in 100 pounds of cheese made
from the richer milk are worth more in
the market than are the constituents
from 100 pounds of cheese made from
poorer milk. Milk rich in fat can be
made to yield cheese of the same COM
position as milk poorer in fat in one of
two ways: Q) by adding skimmilk
to, or (2) removing fat from, the rich
er milk; then the cheese yield for a
pound Of fat becomes the same. The
difference in the cheese yield of milk
fat in the case of poor milk over richer
milk is 4 siiimmilk difference, and the
extra yield Of cheese for fat is the poor
est kind of sl:ir.milk cheese. 1t is
shown that paying fer milk according
to weight of milk furnished is exceed
ingly unfair to the producer of richer
milk. 1t is shown that the cheese yield
by itself does not constitute n fair
basis for payment, because it gives poor
milk an undue advantage. A critical
comparison of all methods of paying for
milk, suggested or in use, leads most
emphaticalyto the conclusion that milk
fat affords the fairest practical basis to
use in paying for milk for cheese maxi
ing. In conclusion it is pointed out
that where the milk fat basis is used,
there is no tendency to adulterate and
defraud, while there is every encour-
agement to produce milk Of better
quality.

CHEAP FEED RACK.

however, to make it very. wide, say not
ever six feet, as some difficulty would
e experienced by the animals in pull
ing out the hay if bound solidly in the
center. Set the posts leaning toward
the center, in order TO make the open
ing wider at the bottom than at the
top. This will prevent binding, and
in consequence the hay will readily
settle as it is being eaten away from
below. From about IS inches above
ground to the top of the posts the sides
and ends should be boarded tightly,
making it possible for the animals to
get at the hay only at the bottom.
To make the rack complete MAN.
ger must be constructed entirelyround
the upright part. This is best accom-
plishcd by setting four short posts Sc
curely in the ground opposite the cor
rers. and others between to give firm
ness to this part, where pressure is
brought TO bear. If the Manager is
made slanting and narrow at the bot
tom, it will prevent animals from get
ting in, as they are often tempted to do
in cold weather. Many consider it u
GOOD plan to cover such rack with a
shed roof, thus always keeping the hay
dry. This can be done with very little
expenses; and, betteryet, would advise
having door at the front OF it, hung
on hinges, as represented in the illus
tration, so that it could be let down
at will for the insertion Of the hay.
This should tend to keep the fodder
dry for the most part in any kind Of
weather-Frederick o. Sibiey, in N.

FACTS ABOUT MILK.
Poir.ta with Which Every Dairymnl
Should &c Familiar.

Poirta with which Every Dairyniiln
Should Ec Familiar.
Milk should be kept in cool place,
free from cdors and in perfectly cleaa
vessels Of wcll-glazed earthen or porce-
lain ware or a glass jar. Tin and wood
are Objectionable.
Milk should be kept perfectly sweet
for household use-in summer from "A
to IS hours after delivery, if maintained
at - degrees Fahrenheit.
The Pasteurization or sterilization Of
milk destroys all the germs present, by
means OF heat.
1t is estimated that one-third Of all
children die before they are three years
old, ard one of the leading causes ofiA-
FAINT mortality is unwholesome milk.
Bad milk cannot be made perfect by
pasteurization, but the danger from its
consumption can be lcssencd.
The Pas.Surization process is to place
tie milk in q glass bottle plugged tight
with dry, clean cotton, and i!2merse
the bottle up to the neck in water main
tanned at $50 degrees Fahrenheit, left
there for some time, then removed and
kept in a cool place.
Separator cream is much richer than
gravity cream" and for this reason
preferred for whipping.
Cream is sometimes kept for two
weeks before it is sold.
When good milk is poured from a
tumblcr It will cling to the glass lit
tie, and not run OF clean like water.
The yellow color of the milk is not a
safe standard by which TO judge its
quality, for the poor milk from some
COWS may be more highly colored than
rich milk from others. All milk from
fresh cows Immediately after parturi-
ton is mere yellow than at later date,
The average dairy cow gives $50 gal
Ions of milk per year, or about
enough to supply II persons with milk

Possibility CT COmIaunica items from

ANY citizen who is tired of mundane
concerns, and wants TO fix his mind on
something higher, is invited TO consider
the allegation of Sir Francis Cation,
made in the London Fortnightfy Re-
view, tLatsome one on Mars is signalling
10 earth. The information seems not
ss yet to be very genertlly confirmed
by astronomical observers, but Sir
Francis is quoted as authority for the
report that in one of the European OBJ
servatories an apparatus has been de-
vised for recording the Marian flashes,
and that the record shows that three
signals and no more are made, and that
they differ, as all flash-light signals do,
in the length of the flashes and OF the
intervals between, so that if we had the
key they might read like Geographic
messages.
OF course this is not a yarn TO be swal-
lowed whole, but the association OF the
name of Sir Francis Cation with it is
enough to entitlc it to consideration.
There seems to be no intrinsic impossi'
biity of our having relations with poo
pie in Mars. 1t sounds preposterous' OF
course, but, like other marreIs, it
seems prcpostcrous chiefly because it is
unusual. We have TO nudge ourselves
from time to time in this age Of swift
surprises, and remind ourselves that
nothing that is new to us can possibly
be more marvellous than many things
that have grown familiar

as possible without worry. It should
be done thoroughly to the last drop;
otherwise L little milk carelessly or
Internationally left in the uddcr will
begin the work Of drying off" the COW.
Milking should be done regularly, be-
ginning at the same hour, and the milk
or should 60 through his stint of cows
in the same order, thus making it cas-
Ter and less disturbing for the COW that
from habit knows when to expect her
turn. To the good mixer, cleanliness
is indeed next to godliness. The hands
should lie clean, the clothing clean, and
the skin and udders Of the cows should
be kept clean. Hard milking COWS are
much less valuable than their yield Or
test would at first blush seem to indi-
cate. They require more time. Once
IN awhile this might be endured, but
when the milking is test that recurs
regularly twice day for 300 days in the
year, it becomes an important item.
1t is hard to milk with the rapidity
that good milking requires, and it is
difficult, too, to milk as clean as the
maintenance of the milk flow requires,
ard hard mixers are much more liable,
other things being equal, TO fall of in
milk flow and dry off early. They be-
come nervous, too, as u rule, and very
frequently develop into kickers. They
are not perhaps to blame for this. The
milking disturbs them and makes them
irritable, and they naturally come to re-
sent anything that irritates them. Their
irritation reacts, too, upon the person
who does the milking, and he in turn
is liable to be less valuable as mixer
because less patient and gentle. Good
milking bears so important relation to
the best results which constitute profit,
as compared with results not quite so
good, that it is a faculty which everyone
who has to handle cows should cultivate.
There is more in the cheerful, good
humored, picturesque milkmaid idea
than mere poetry. The cheerful, whole
some, womanly milkmaid is, as rule,
much more likely to harmonic with the
disposition of q good milk cow than is
the ruder and less patient farm hand

DAIRY SUGGESTIONS.

y really good dairy COW can be
rroftably kept until she is eight years
old.
Don't allow your cows, young cattle
or sheep to be pinched in their feed dur
ing The winter.
Do rot expect a good millk-cow to
t,Acome beef fat while she is yielding u
coed flow of milk.
AS rule, profitable COW is'a good
cater, but some COWS have eyes larger
than their stomachs, like some men.
If the hcifer is to develop into a
profitable cow, her first milking period
must he extended as much as possible.
Cows kept in comfortable quarters in
winter eat less, thrive better, and give
more milk than if exposed to cold or
storm.
Those who have had much expert
cnce know that there is great differ

GOOD PROPOSITION.
Why Cows Should Be Bought and Sold by
the milk Test.

Why Cows Should Be Bought and Sold by
the Milk Test.
The value of cow depends so wholly
on the amount and quality of the milk
she gives that the proposition coming
from the North Carolina experiment
station, namely, to sell or buy COWS by
the milk test, seems rather natural and
good sense. "The plan is based on the
Weld of their milk, together with the
quality of the same as determined by
tests of the milk. The rule is to pay fer
the cow at the rate Of S12 gallon OF
milk given a day that is rich enough
to show three and one-half per cent OF
fat. To this price add or subtract one
dollar for every one-fourth of one per
cent. of fat which is above or below the
three and one-half per cent. BY this
rule q cow is bought entirely on her
merits. It is believed to be conserva-
tive plan, and one which, if adopted Tor
one upon a similar PLAN, will certainly
raise the standard of COWS and increase
their milk and butter productions; Tor
if they cannot be sold easily for milk
COWS, they will soon be turned over to
the butcher, and better animal be
kept or willing purchaser be found.
The result cannot fail to be beneficial to
all parties Greiner, in Farm and

DAIRY ESSENTIALS.

Summarized by II. a. Pierson, Z. S. De-
parSment Of Agriculture.
A roomy, clean, dry, light and we'll
ventilated stable or COW house. Topro-
duce good milk, cows must be comfort
able. and these conditions not only add
10 their comfort, but are absolutely
necessary to keep them in the best Of
health.
Healthy and clean cows, which ap-
pear well-fed and contented.
An abundance of pure water to which
cows are given access at least twice
day.
Feed of good quality; the grain and
coarse fodder should be free from dirt,
decay, or musty condition.
a spirit of kindness toward the stock,
exhibited by everyone employed about
them, and gentleness of the animals
themselves.
Provision for washing and steriliz-
ing or scalding all utensils which come
in contact with milk.
Provision for straining, aerating and
cooling the milk in u clean atmosphere,
free from all stable and other odors.
This treatment should take place i'm
mediately after the milk is drawn from
each cow.
Facilities for storing the milk and
keeping it cold.
Especially great cleanliness in re-
gard to everything connected with the
dairy. The atmosphere of the stable
should be pure and free from dust
when milking is being done. Employees
should carefully wipe the udders and
wash their hands before milking, and
should be in clean clothes. White
wash is a good disinfectant, and should
be seen in many more stables, and land
plaster should be sprinkled about to alb
serb moisture and odors.-Farm News.
