BuTTER-MAKING RULES.
Valuable Hints from the COrneIi
Ag%ricuIturaI College.

The instructor at Cornell agricultur-
al college, ithaca, y. Y, has sent ont a
list of rules about butter-making and
ripening cream. He says:
The practical part of cream ripening
is this: Keep your vessel so that it
may all ripen evenly and thus avoid loss
in churning. Raise. the temperature to
90 or 6S degrees and keep it as near that
temperature as possible until ripe, and
then cool before churning. Well ripened
cream should he c~oagulated or thick
ened. 1t should run from a height in a
smooth stream like oil. When a pad
die is dipped into il and held in the
hand, it should stick all over in a
thick even coat, not running off in
streaks and showing the surface of the
paddle. When the last drops run off the
paddle back into the vat they should
leave little dents or depressions on the
surface, which Go o close up for an
instant. The cream should nave a satin
gloss or fresh surface. Churn until the
granules are the size of wheat kernels;
then draw off the buttermilk and wash
through two or three waters, whirling
the churn a few times around. Use from
n pint to a quart of water per pound of
butter. Have the water at a tempera-
ture of 40 to IS degrees in hot weather
and from 50 to e. degrees in winter. al
ways depending upon the season. natur-
al solidity of the butter. warmth of the
room ana size of granules. If you do
not care about feeding the washings. 1
would put some salt in my first wash
water. 1t will help to float the granules
better. and perhaps dissolve out the
casein to some extent. Iwould general
lv salt the butter in the churn.

ten was abandoned there; and that to-
day in Great Britain not only are the
roads maintained at the general cost of
the people, but government loans are
made for any specially heavy improve
mCnts hat are desired. Two hundred
years ago the great highways of that
country were kept up, so far as theywere
kept up at all, just as they are in this
state to-day, by local taxation, while
they actually served the people of the
whole kingdom.
Upon the convict labor question, let
them understand that 1 900 idle men are
being marched about in Sing Sing pris-
on to-day for exercise, whose labor, if
properly directed, could provide the
material for thousands of miles of good
roads every year, and that the honest
industry of the country pays for main
tanning these criminals in idleness.
These things would be incredible if told
in England to-day. They would be a
bitter reproach to u republican insti-
t%utions. And they would add another
argument, and a most powerful one, for
those who claim that our system of gov
eminent cannot care for the economic
interests of the people as we'll as a mon
archy. 1t would be a fata! Indictment
against our institutions, if it must be
truly said, that a free people, in a rich
country, cannot secure for themselves
the blessing OF good roads.-Gen. Roy

CREAMERY SUCCESS.
UnIess All Patrons Work Together IL
Cannot BE Achieved.

fcreamery butter is better than aver.
ige dairy butter it is because the man.
agement NJ the creamery is upon Il high
er scale than in the average private
dairy. There Is no gain in taking the
milk of a dozen or more second or third
class formers and handing it over TO an
unskilled creamery maj to make into
butter. Two interiors do not make one
superior. Two ciphers cannot by any
arrangement be made into a whole
number. 4 successful creamery must
have lot only a skillful manager and
butter maker, but a guaranteed supply
of good, sound milk or cream in suffi-
Gent quantity to utilize the capacity Of
the concern. The more COWS the greater
will be the percentage of profit. Nor
can the butter-maker alone control the
character of the butter product.
Poor, dirty milk cannot appear later
in form of first-class butter. The skill
and intelligence, indispensable at a
creamery, must extend out among the
milk producers. Poor cows yielding
but little milk can never pay their keep
ing, and no number of them, however
great, can render n creamery profitable
TO its patrons. For the highest sue
cess under 4 cooperative system each
individualmustputfor the same effort
that would be required for success in
private management. Dairymen who
join a creamery association expecting
to gain more than they give are hardly
deserving of pity when they discover
their mistake.
No one has any business to ask for
anything beyond what he is willing to
give an equivalent for. Men join in rails
ing the heavy frame of a building be-
cause they can accomplish in that way
what they could never do singly. A nan
who IN SUCH an occasion does nothing
but "holler" is n sneak and when found
out is always despised. Not less mean
is it to join a creamery association and
then carry poor milk, expecting to di-
vide the profits of those who furnish
the best they know how. Cooperation
is a success only when each works for
all and all for each, and this idea lies at
the bottom of all forms of associated
effort whether in the factory, the
grange. the municipality or the church

That good roads will bring prosperity
is no idle dream. Through all the panic

the farmers in the few good-roads dis

1t is enforced idleness hat makes
farmers poor, and no farmer need be

a good road there is always paying
work OF some kind. and wet weather is
just the time to go on the road. The
French farmer never loses a good day

Suggestions for Setting Ont

Trees and Shrubbery.
"When planting trees in the lawn
writes Evan E. Rexford, in the Ladies'
Home Journal, I'VE must remember
that the tree of to-day is only a hint of
what the tree of ten Or 20 years to come
will be. The trees we plant to-day, per-
haps five or six feet tall, and with a
spread of branches not more than two
feet across, should in a dozen years from
now, stand 25 feet high. and have a
spread of Is or 20 feet. If we plant them
but ten or twelve feet apart now we
will have, at the stage of development
they are expected to reach in a dozen
years, n perfect thicket of branches
overhead and dense shade beneath.
Never plant with regard to regularity
that is, so many feet apart each way
rs the rule has been laid down for orch
ards.
IF you want several shrubs on n
small lawn, and the space is loo small
TO allow you to set them as far apart as
they ought to be. in order to give them
the benefit of space individually, group
them, that is plant them in a clump.
The idea is 10 make the three, or four,
or five shrubs which you plant in the
group produce a unit of effect which will
give much the same impression that one
w~ell-developed specimen would. BY
selecting varieties in which there is
contrast of color as to foliage, as we'll
as flowers, satisfactory results may be
secured. In the irreguIarity which
produces charming effects there is al
ways a method and a plan"

Workers issued an appeal to the public
yesterday for sympathy and financial
aff. The circular describes the miners
as being reduced to miserable poverty,
and quotes. a Pittsburgh paper to the
effect that miners children are seen
driving dogs away from garbage and
eating it themselves in the mining re-
gions there.
The committee by name blames the
New York & Cleveland Coal Co. and its
president and directors. whose names
are also given. for bringing about the
d~emoralized condition of the coal min
ing business. The miners announce
that they are determined to end this
state of affairs at once and to that end
solicit aid. The circular is Endorsed by
