MAINTAINING THE MILK FLOW.

When the COWS are given shade and
cool water in abundance they will
require less food to make the neces-
sary milk and flesh, hence the great
value Of SHADY pasture. When the
grasses fail they should be supple
mented with fodder, corn, oats, rye
or some other grain, so that the nor
nal flow of milk may be maintained
Ii this be done no complaint will be
heard about the ingratituae Of ami
mails, the milk shrinkage and the
losses OF dairying. The cows will not
merely respond at once to better treat
ment, but they will be in good condi-
ton for the fall campaign, instead OF
requiring till winter to recuperate
from the summer heat, flies, scanty
pasturage and insufficient water sup

ABOUT STREAKY BUTTER.

The most frequent cause of streaky
or notified butter is an unequal distri-
button of the salt. Where shallow set
ting is used if the milk stands too long
a time in Dry atmosphere before skim
ming, some of the cream may become
SO thick and hard that it never be-
comes thoroughly mixed with the rest
and is imperfectly churned. This may
cause streaks. Unequal ripening of the
cream may possibly cause streaks.
Suppose the cream in the cream jar is
very cold ana thick. The housewife
sets the jar, in very cold weather, near
the stove to have it warm up. She is
busy and does not keep it properly
stirred. One side of the cream gets
warm ana ripened and the rest does
not. The result is possibly streaky
butter. Such things have happened
Now, the remedy for all these troubles
is to have the cream all ripened alike,
with no thick hard chunks of cream
in ii. Then churn at as low a tenn
perature as can be done without TAX
ing too long a time. Then the butter
will come in fine granular form. Stop
the churn when the granules are fine
like clover, or at most not larger
than kernels Of wheat. Draw off the
buttermilk ana wash the butter while
in this granular state. Mix in fine
Sifted salt evenly through the whole
Let it stand at temperature of 60 to
60 degrees for four to six hours, or
long enough for the salt to dissolve
Then work and pack it. The sailing
must be done while the butter has
plenty OF moisture in it, then the salt
will steadily dissolve. Work little
when the salt is first put in. If there
are any streaks caused by the salt
changing the color of the butter they
will disappear in the second working.

CnvWING MlLLET FOR STOCK,

Millet is grown here for hay, for
stock. to a considerable extent, as
sometimes one is unable to get all the
prairie grass that is needed for hay.
The ground should be plowed four or
five inches deep, we'll narrowed, both
Ways is preferable, and then planked,
to make the ground smooth and free
from humps. 1t is then sowed with a
press-drill, using twelve quarts of seed
to an acre of ground for hay, or eight
quarts to an acre of seed. In cutting
for hay to have it fit for stock to eat
it is Of great importance to cut at the
proper time. This should be done
after it blossoms and before the seeds
are formed. When cutting for hay
it should be left until perfectly dry
before stacking. In this state 1t
seldom has to be turned over, us our
winds and hot sun soon dry 1t
thoroughly. After it is stacked it
should be covered with prairie hay and
weighted down. This is usually done
by tying stones to each end of a Irvine
or rope and throwing it over the
stack. When cutting for seed it should
be left until thoroughly ripe, and
thrcshed like other grains.

THE CARE OF MILK.

In regard to the destruction of bac-
terra injurious to milk q writer says
that we can use @ number of disinfect-
ing substances, such rs fumes Of sui
phur and the stables to be thoroughly
cleaned After removal of the animals
all dirt should be removed, the floor,
walls and ceilings should be thoroughly
scraped with brush and water. If we
use sulphur as disinfectant, all open
iEgs should be papered. To kill all BAG
ings must be closed, ana all cracks
should be papered. TO kill all bacteria
cubic meter. This is based upon ex-
periments in the laboratory, but in
practice IL has been found that ten
gramms per cubic meter will give good
results. The sulphur, broken in small
pieces, is ignited upon an iron pan;
the doors are then kept closed for at
least Il to IA hours, when the stable
can be used again, after being venti-
lated with strong draught of air.
During this time the animals, and
chiefly their legs and feet, should be
brushed with water containing soda.
The clothing Of the mixers must be
cleaned, and all utensils used for milk
should be scrubbed with boiling water,
or should be thoroughly steamed.
bacteria can also be killed by washing
the walls, floors and ceilings with
concentrated milk OF lime. This IS
make by shaking lime with water, to
which is added an equal amount OF
water which makes so per cent.

RUNNING WATER IN THE HOUSE.

In . few farm homes the arrange
ments for supplying and distributing
water are admirable. A tank is To-
Gated in the attic, and from it water
is pipod to the kitchen, bath room,
laundry or any other part of the
Louise. The tank is filled by means of
force pump ana wind power. The
pipes run from the we'll to the house
underground, being placed sufficiently
deep to prevent any injury from frost.
The tank is located over the kitchen
and near the chimney. While this
arrangement costs something extra, it
certainly should be HAD if possible, for
carrying water is the nest difficult
task of the housekeeper.

Excellent Address by Wisconsin Man
at Illinois Conference of Charities.

OF Mr.. Snyder's address to the III.
inois Conference Of Charities last
week, the Jacksonville Daily
journal says: Hon. Clarence
Snyder, OF the Wisconsin
state board of control, ably discussed
the methods of caring for the chronic
pauper insane. The excellent effort
is too long to be Reproduced in full
and is not OF nature which will bear
condensation. The principal feature
OF the paper was an explanation of the
manner adopted by Wisconsin which.
in brief, is by smaller buildings in
several OF the counties raIner than by
larger, centralized state BUILDINGS, and
1t is the boast Of the badger state that
1t has not an insane person in either
poorhouse or Jail"
Among those engaged In the discus
sion OF the address mentioned were
Governor Tanner, Frederick Howard
Wines secretary of the Illinois board
OF state charities, and DR. Stearns.
superintendent Of the eastern Illinois
hospital for the insane at Kankakee.

Exposure to Disease

Does not necessarily mean the con-
traction of disease provided the
system is in a vigorous condition,
with the blood pure and all the or
gans in healthy action. When in
such condition contagion is read
lily resisted and the disease germs
can find no lodgment. Hoods Sar.
saparilla is the best medicine to
build up the system because it
makes pure, rich blood, and pure
blood is the basis of good health, In
cold weather it is especially neces.
sary to keep up the health tone be-
cause the body is subject to greater
exposure and more liable to disease.
Hoods Sarsaparilla is the safeguard
of health.

(IJith a better understanding OF the
w transient nature of the many phys
ical ills, which vanish before proper eff
forts-gentle efforts-pleasant efforts
rightly directed. There is comfort IN
the knowledge, that so many forms OF
sickness are not due to any actual dis
ease, but simply to eonstipated condi-
tion of the system, which the pleasant
family laxative, Syrup of Figs prompt
ly removes. That is why it is the onl y
remedy with millions of families, and is
everywhere esteemed so highly by all
who value good health. Its beneficial
effects are due to the fact, that it's the
one remedy which promotes internal
cleanliness without debilitating the
organs on which it acts. 1t is therefore
eli important, in order to get its bene-
fetal effects, to note when you pur-
chase, that you have the genuine arti-
Gle, which is manufactured by the Cali
fornia Fig Syrup Co. only and sold by
all reputable druggists.
If in the enjoyment OF good health,
and the system is regular, laXatlves or
other remedies are then not needed. If
afflicted with any actual disease, one
NAV be commended 10 the most skillful
physicians, but if in need of a laxative,
one should have the best, and with the
well-informed everywhere, Syrup of
Figs stands highest and is most largely
used and gives most general satisfaction.
