gin Dairy Report. There is no question
but the appearance of packages
help to sell them. Possibly it may
not help to get better prices, but it
helps to find customer The lot OF
tubs that are bright, clean and look as
il they had come from a clean, tidy
buttermaker, will attract the atten-
ton of the transient buyer who is not
even aware of the stencil number OF
the quality of the goods, much quicker
than the slovenly, dirty, wet looking
package. So it pays to see to it that
the packages when they leave the
factory are in first-class condition, as
far as cOOperage is concerned. There
are some little details in connection
with the putting up Of the pack
ages and marking Of them that
might be worth considering. The
method of placing the stencil on the
tub sometimes has much to do with
the appearance of the package. l have
seen packages where the stencil had
apparently grown from the small COM
pact one TO one covering the whole

water or bad material, and in moving
about the abrasion of one tub against
the other had almost entirely Obllter-
ated the stencil and it was spread all
over the whole of the cover. A little
turpentine and lamp black, which are
not expensive, will make a clean cut
stencil that will stay where you put it;
and the receiver will know when he
receives tho package just what he is
getting. Tins should be securely fas-
tened both on the cover and the tub,
and enough of them so that the cover
will he held in place properly. In
soaking the tubs the buttermaker
will be careful to get no water on the
outside if possible; it does not improve
the appearance Of the package to have
1T show up watersoaked on the outside.
Another thing about which a cream
eryman cannot be too careful is to see
that his packages are made of good
timber. We have seen tubs in the
butter cellars probably composed of
One-half good timber and the other
half poor, and the slaves of the soft
wood soaked with the brine, which
gave the tubs an untidy and slovenly
appearance. Attention to some Of
these little details will be found a pro-
fitable investment to the creameryman
in the quicker and better returns he
will get for his goods.

peared to be unable to remedy the evil,
which was in the flavor of their goods,
and they were very much discouraged.
While | was there I endeavored to as
certain just how they made their but
ter. and also tried to find out if there
were any foul odors about the cream
cry. After getting into the buggy I
asked the driver if he had watered his
horse; he said he had tried to but the
horse would not drink the water; he
himself had tried to drink some, but it
was so foul he was unable to do So
We had gone only a few rods when we
met the creameryman, and while he
was standing talking to us he noticed
some slimmilll coming up out of the
ground not far from where he was
standing. He called our attention to

ana suggested to him that possibly i'm

poor butter. Upon further investiga-
tlon we found that the water, skim

worked its way back into the we'll and
polluted the water and the water in

Brahma is not to be commended as
highly as the light. The close breeding
for points in feathers is likely to in
terfere with their productiveness, yet
with proper attention and care they can
be bred profitably as well as for beau
ty. The standard weight of Light
Brahma cocks is II pounds; hens, 9k

let's, 8 pounds. The standard weight OF
Dark Brahma cocks is II pounds; hens.

Standard Varieties of Chickens.

The shank feathering should CORE
spond with the breast, being black if
the latter be black, and slightly mot
tled With white if not The shanks are
deep yellow, inclining to orange. The
color of females is a white ground,
closely penciled with dark steel gray,
producing beautiful effect, frosted or
silver gray in appearance. There
should be no show of pure white in the
plumage except in the margins OF the
hackleS. Unless extreme care be taken
III mating, the hens are likely to have
a dlngy color, and the pullets are apt
to have necks almost white for some
distance down. These light-necked
birds generally breed to worse, but the
evil may be remedied by choosing birds
Tor breeding whose heads are distinctly
marked The shape and character of
the markings of the Dark Brahma pull
lets also varies They should be me-
dunn sized, SC that the pencilings can
be clearly discerned at a short distance.
A great point in regard to color and
marking in Brahma pullets is that 1t
should be uniform over the body, and
the hackles should be silvery white,
heavily striped with rich black. and

Grass Seeding.-In seeding land to
grass it would be much better if great
err variety of plants were grown. Some
kinds succeed better than others under
special conditions of soil, SO that the
greater variety sown, the better the
land is likely to be covered, and the
larger the quantity of feed produced
But the advantage of much greater pal
atableness of pasture or hay which con-
tains a variety of grasses is even more
important. AS an aid to make all hay
more eagerly eaten, some sweet-scent-
ed vernal grass seed ought always to
be sown. 1t will be eaten close to the
soil by every kind of stock, and when
left for hay the aroma from it will pen
citrate the whole mass and increase it's
feeding value.-Ex.

Poultry Farming.

10 set about successful poultry farm
ing you cannot do better than observe
the following:
l.. Begin with small number: be
personally acquainted with all wants,
and with laying powers of each hen.
1t IS best not to breed from pullets. but
to select the best layers as pullets and
breed from them the following year.
Only after several years careful selec-
ton for laying qualities should any at
tempt to begin on a larger scale be
made.
2 Go to no unavoidable expense in
buildings and such; they may look well
but are Of no real value.
