Sailing of Butter.

In dairy products quality is an i'm
pOrtant factor. Not only must but
ter present a neat, clean appearance,
but it must be of good quality if
the best prices are realized.
Generally any plan that will i'm
prove the appearance or quality and
save time and labor, and in this way
lessen the cost, should be adopted.
One advantage in brine sailing over
dry sailing is the saving of both
time and labor, as well as securing a
better and more uniform quality of
product,
The place to salt butter is in the
churn when the butter is in we'll
washed granules and it is still wet.
Make the brine as strong as the
water will take up; that is, add
clean salt to pure fresh cold water
as long as the salt will dissolve,
Let the butter lie in this salt brine
an hour; not only will the sailing
be donel more uniformly in this
way, but the salt brine will aid in
drawing out whatever buttermilk
may remain after thorough washing
No more salt will be taken up by
the butter than it needs, the rest can
all be drained off.
Too much salt may be ground oil
washed into butter by mechanical
force, but with brine sailing the but
ter will not absorb more than il
needs.
In this way there will be M
streaks to work out and the grain
being unbroken, the butter will re
tain it's flavor longer and present {
better appearance than if sailed il
any other way.

The following sensible suggestions
are found in the English Fanciers'
Gazette:
Always carefully look over your
flock once day, and if you see any
birds mopey or dropping their
wings, remove them then and there,
as one ill bird may affect all the
rest.
Always keep some Epson saltz
and sweet oil by you, as you may
want them at any moment.
Always give just enough food at
one time that it will be all eaten up ;
none should be left lying around.
Always give as great variety of
food as possible; constant change of
diet is the way to get the chickens
on.
Always give your birds little
hempseed and cooked meat when
moulting.
Always keep the floors of the
houses and coopS well covered with
sand or ashes.
Always rake the dropping off
every morning. Cleanliness is a
great preventive of sickness.
Always keep a sharp look out fol
vermin, and eradicate them as
as quickly as possible.
Always do little odd jobs that
want doing at once. "PrOcrastina.
ton is the thief of time" and often
a nail here or tack there will save
an hours work.
Always buy your food in as large
quantity as possible, as you will
then generally be able to get it at q
cheaper rate.

A writer in the Dakota Farmer
gives this advice:
|. Select the best cows in your
herd, or that you can buy, to keep,
and dispose of the others.
2. The best COW for the dairy is
the one that produces the greatest
amount of butter fat in the year (for
food consumed when being rightly
fed.
3. To renew or increase your herd
raise the heifer calves from your
best cows.
4. Test your cows by weighing
the milk of each cow for year and
testing it occasionally with the Bah
cock milk tester, aad know how
much butter fat each one does pro-
duce.
8. Use the best dairy bred sire
you can get; one, if possible, that
has long line of ancestors that
have been first-class dairy animals.
6. Keep a record of the time when
the cows were bred and have no
guess work about the time of calv-
ing.
Z. 1t is neither profitable nor
necessary for cow to go dry more
than four to six weeks.
8. The udder should receive
prompt attention. An obstacle may
be removed from the teat the first
hour, that might battle science later
8. After separating the calf from
its mother, feed the natural milk as
soon as drawn, for a week or ter
days.

Carried off bya Balloon.

Eugene Mccarthy, a resident of
Waitsfeld, VT, made an uneXpect-
ed balloon ascension at the county
fair Wednesday. A woman was to
make the ascension and a parac hute
jump, and crowd gathered around
the inflated air-ship. Mccarthy in
some way got entangled with the
ropes and when the balloon was
loosed he was carried up. The wo-
man, who was sitting on horizon
tai bar suspended from the balloon,
saw the man in the ropes above her
and shouted for him to hold on. 1t
was unnecessary caution. McCar-
thy was already holding on for dear
life. The ship went up over 1000
feet and then descended. The wo-
man remained on the bar to encOur-
age Mccarthy, and when his feet
landed on the ground he was the
most delighted man in the State.
Now he is the hero of the whole
countryside.-New York World.

HOPE For the HOmeIy Girl.

tor says: "Don't be discouraged,
my dear, because you are just a

reach a mans heart is to cater to
his appetite. A girl who can claw

piece of furniture in the most de-

Feed the Pigs Often.

Many a man would be surprised if
he knew how many times q sow
nurses her pigs during day. There
are two reasons for this; first, the
sow is not able to retain her milk a
long time; second, pig has small
stomach and cannot store away a
great quantity of food at one time.
There is natural lesson in this: In
order to have pigs do well at an ear
ly age feed little but often, four
times is better than three a day, es-
pecially if it is a sloppy or milk
food.-Farm, Stock and Home.

When your stomach begins to trouble you,
1t needs help. The help il needs, is to di-
gest your food, and. until il gets it, you
won't have any peace. stomach trouble is
very distressing, very obstinate, very dan
gerous. Many of the most dangerous
diseases begin with simple indigestion.
The reason is that Indigestion (not-diges-
ton, nOt-nOurishment) weakens the system
and allows disease germs to attack 1t. The
antidote is Shaker Digestive Cordial

the letters received from the younger graduates.
In every case the feeling is expressed that for
Columbia TO drop out Of the race this year would
be a blot upon her reputation. One OF the letters
tersely remarks: THE maintenance Of our rowing
reputation. by keeping crew on the water is a
matter Of self-preservation."
