A BICYCLE TRAGEDY.
A Rash Youth Who Did Not Rcsprot h:s

He was full of Joy, and why shouldn
he be? Wasn't he riding a brand-new
wheel. and In another moment
wouldn't he be by the side of the crea-
ture he adored above all else in the
world? asks the Ohio State Journal
Yea, at times he was even constrained
to believe he thought more of tbs
beautiful girl that he did of his bike
with proud step came up the grav-
eled walk, leading his wheel. On the
porch stood the girl who was his prom
ised wife. A happy light shone from
her eyes and the glad smile Of welcome
she gave him made the young man
feel at peace with the world. Suddenly
the i1rl cast swift glance at the new
wheel. She trembled and then grew
pale. The happy look fled from her
eyes and sudden flush of Indignation
swept over her beautiful features y,
Drawing herself up proudly she cas-; a
whitening glance upon the young maa
and said In a choked voice:
"Henceforth, Wheeler Sprocket, we
meet as strangers. Our engagement is
at an end. You have shown yourself
In your true colors. A man who will
not respect the feelings of his sweet
heart Will not love his wife. Go. say
and never let me look upon your false
face again. Oh, hate you!" and she
stamped her tiny foot upon the foor.
To say young Sprocket was thunder
struck at this unlooked-for and unac
countable outburst Of passion from the
girl he adored would put 1t mildly
indeed. What had he done? he asked
himself. Was the girl temporarily in
part in some private theatrical. where
In she had the role of the innocent
victim of mans perfdy? Bracng
himself up to the occasion. he managed
to exclaim:
Marguerite. can't understand youi
strange actions. Have really offendcd
YOU in any way?"
Offended me, Wheeler Sprocke,
You have grossly insulted me. Oh
how thankful am that discovered
your true nature before 1t was to1
late!" and the look of scorn she gave
him almost crushed him.
But. dearest pleaded the young
man. you will at least tell me what

Practical Use of Water.

In certain portions of the west where
water is used for purposes OF irriga-
uon, experiments have been tried in
nrst utilizing the water for power.
Suitable pumps carry 1t to high reser-
voirs. where 1t is used to generate cleo
tricity.. 1t acquires an enormous power
oy Its weight and is in no wise in
1ured for irrigating purposes. An or
dinary spring constantly drawn from
furnishes very valuable power in this
way. and after the water has done its
work either in the electrical plant or
IN the turning of wheels. it goes on It's
way to refresh vegetation and make the
ground productive. In this way it per-
forms more than double Office with

Coles Magnetic Motor.

PROFESSOR Coles, the famous Kingston

perpetual motion. The gist Of his

Age of the Earth

Science and religion have INDUCED
In numerous arguments upon the age
of the earth. One Of the best authori-
ties and one whose testimony is ad-
mitted by almost all disputants, tells
us that the earth became solid some
where between twenty and thirty mil
lions OF years ago. This statement Is
based on the length OF time that would
be required to solidify all OF the strata
OF which We have any knowledge. As
this has been one OF the ever-present
subjects for questioning and quibbling.
1t is great satisfaction to feel that
excellent authorities have finally set
tied the point.

entists thought 1t worthy Of investiga-

that the metal had become exhausted
and had broken down, Just as an over

and scientists are satisfied that metals
DO become tired out. Fine cracks often
appear In steel rails and 1t has been
supposed that they are caused by the
continuous concussion of railway
wheels. This. however, seems to be
contradicted by the examination Of
newly-made rails. in which similar

become weary, while not altogether a
new one, is to an extent plausible
one. and under the careful scrutiny Of
scientific societies will probably be sat
isfactorily explained and settled.

Setting of Milk.

Purdue University Agricultural Elk
pertinent Station, through it's director
Prof, G. S. Plum, sends out the fol-
lowing about setting of milk. A very
large share of the milk skinned for
private butter making in Indiana is
set in cans or crooks and the cream
skinned from the surface.
Milk may be set from for cream in
various kinds of vessels and under
different, conditions. The poorest
method is to set in shallow tin pans
or crooks on pantry shelves or in a
cellar. Milk thus set is exposed to a
greater air contact than when set
otherwise, and so is more liable to be
affected by injurious odors, by dis
eases transmitted through the atmos-
phere, and by heat and cold. Milk
so set will oftentimes rapidly sour, or
in very cold weather may freeze. If
it sours badly in summer, when
skinned, curds will be likely to get
in the cream and remain more or less
in butter after churning, forming
white spots, thereby seriously injur-
ing the quality of the butter. Or, if
the milk or cream freezes, an inferior
grade of butter will be made from it.
If cream is to be secured by setting
milk, the best plan will be to set the
milk in round tin cans, about eighteen
inches deep and eight inches in di-
ameter. If the can is placed in ice
water or cold spring water, to the
height of the milk in the can, the con-
ditions for cream separation will be
especially if inside refrig
eratoror creamer. This method helps
keep the milk at uniform temperture
and enables the cream to rise to best
Such cans as these, open
at the top, are commonly known as
''shot-gun" cans, and may be bought
Of dairy supply houses or can be
made by any good timer.
These deep cans are skinned in
one Of two ways either by conical

DAIRY.

The following taken from Wallces'
Farmer shows how the success of the
Morris creamery has been spread
broadcast throughout not only this
state, but Iowa as we'll:
A few weeks ago we published in
this department a condensed report
of the Morris Cooperative Creamery
Association, of Morris, Minnesota, in
which prices were given for butter
fat paid since the creamery started in
June, 1896. One of our subscrib-
ers afterward wrote us asking for
more specific information as to these
prices, and the following from the
secretary of the Morris creamery is
in answer to his question:
In reply to your enquiry or the 10Th
INST, | beg to submit the tables of
prices realized by our creamery for
butter fat and butter during 1896.
