GOOD TIMES COMING.

proved Roads Are introduced.
That good roads will bring prosperity
Is no idle dream. Through all the panic
and depression Of the last three years
the farmers in the few good-roads dis
tricts Of the country have gone on max
ing money and improving their farms,
and they have not troubled themselves
much about politics or finance. ~
It is enforced idleness that makes
farmers poor, md no farmer need be
idle day on account of bad weather or
wet fields if only his roads are good. On
q 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 good day
in his fields, for he can do all his market

times. ~ . -

In an experiment carefully made to

which made 50 pounds Of butter per

milk was 4,7s2 pounds and made 196
pounds Of butter. The pasture was q

BUTTER-MAklNG RULES.
Valuable Hints from the Cornell
A~pi0uIfrr01 Cn110-o

Valuable Hints from the Cornell
Agricultural College.
The instructor at Cornell agriculture
al college, ithaca, N. Y, has sent out a
list of rules about butter-making aid
Tipening 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
62 or GO degrees and keep it as near that
temperature as possible until ripe, and
then cool before churning. Well ripened
cream should be coagulated or thick
ened.. It should run from height in a
smooth stream like oil. When a pad
die is dipped into it 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 do not close up for an
instant. The cream should have 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 three waters, whirling
the ehurn few times around. Use from
a pint to quart of water per pound Of
butter. Have the water at -tempera-
ture OF 40 to As degrees in hot weather
and from so to 62 degrees in winter. al

not care about feeding the washings, 1

OF them who are candidates for public
life, that the interests of the city popu-
lation demand that they shall come to
the relief of the farmers, you can go to
the farmers with this assurance of help
and ask them to take into careful con-
sideration the practical measures by
which this relief can be brought about,
and especially the measures for provid-
ing state aid and for the use of convict
labor. It is only through state and
county aid that the cities and villages
can help. II you find the farmers
ciinging to. the old ways, say to them
that these ways are mainly an unfor-
tunate inheritance from the mother
country, which we brought away with
us and failed to shake off when the sys-
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
ments that are desired. Two hundred
years ago the great highways of that
country were kept up, so far as they were
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. il"
Upon the convict labor question:, let
them understand that l 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 our republican insti-
tutions. 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 mon
archy. 1t would be fata! Indictment
against our institutions, if it must be
truly said, that free people, in a rich
country, cannot secure for themselves

Care OF Rbubnrh Roo},

If your pie-plant roots have ceased to
yield those large, tender stalks that are
SO desirable, there is some reason for it.
Perhaps they were allowed to go to seed,
or were deprived of too many leaves, or
manure was withheld, or the roots of
other plants or trees have encroached
and robbed them of food and water,
Possibly they have stood too long in one
place and have developed too many eyes.
IF the roots are old the crowns NAV be
uncovered and all the weaker eyes cut
out. Then put on plenty of manure.
The Remedy Close at Hand.
There is usually good road material
within easy distance Of every mudhole.

Railroad, and the .saee,y Lar.p

The claim bl the railroad companies
that 1t will cost them S5O,OOO,OOO to equip
their cars with safety appliances re-
qulred by law, and their request that
they be given five years in which to
make the changes Is met by the protest
of the railway labor organizations, which
claim that five years is too long an ex-
tension.
While 1t does not seem that the rail-
roads have been as prompt in the COM
plIance with the act of Congress as was
expected they would be, their reasons are
entitled to some consideration. They
point to the fact that the past three or
four years buslness depression has been
disastrous TO the railroad business, and
that not until the revival of business
within the present year has their condl-
ton, financially, been such as to enable
them to bear the expense. on the other
hand, the employees organizations claim
that, while this IS true. some Of the roads
have been more neglectful than the stu
alton really warranted, and that with
the revival of business and the increased
earnings of the railroads, It is possible
for the work of equipment to be done in
u much shorter time than five years,
The law was passed by Congress In
the interest of the greater safety of rail-
way employees, especially those in the
freight service, the passenger cars being
practically all equipped with the safety
appliances, Cautcmatic car coupicrs and
extra air brakcs), and the labor organl-
cations have taken up the matter OF In
slstlng on the expedition Of the work. In
view Of tho fact That the fatalities among
tho railway employees by reason Of the
absence OF these apphancesis alarmingly
large, II Is hoped that the companies may
see their way to the completion OF the
