It has been supposed that the milk
can or jar was q great advance over
the old method Of dealing out milk by
milkmen from an open can. The milk
inspector Of the city OF Philadelphia
and the authorities at West Point
have begun war on the system. At
West Point several cases of fever were
traced directly to the glass jars. The
point OF dimculty II that the same jars
are used on different days In various
families. As frequently tho jars are
left in the houses where contagious
diseases exist, the milk In the jars rap
idly accumulates disease germs. II
the jars were thoroughly sterilized af-
ter each use there would be no danger.
In hot water. the germs remain in
their vigor. The danger Is therefore
great. Without doubt some of our
more advanced milkmen will thor
oughly sterilize their cans. especially
where they have steam at their dis
posal. But in the great majority OF
cases. especially in the city. the dan.
ger Is obvious. So It is that We begin
to return again to first principles.
The wise men are now cudgeling
their brains to find out how much 1t
costs to manufacture milk. They have
obtained all kinds of figures, ranging
from l cent to 3. But most. IL not all.
OF these estimates are merely fancy.
We have known cases where every
quart cost the milkman z cents for
food alone. The truth Is that the cows
are SO various in their capacities. and
the cost of grain and hay differs so
that all such estimates are really
worthless. There is no doubt tha: the
cost should be lowered through the
Development of better cows and a bet
ter system Of feeding. but that there
is at this present time any degree of
uniformity in the cost of production
We do not believe.
The science of making cheese at
home seems to have departed. The ad-
vent OF the cheese factory has put
cheese making into a different sphere.
Yet It would be often desirable II some
OF the old homely wisdom were re-
tained. There are localities too far
away to be in reach u . cheese sac-
tory. where the mill hlight some
times be used to good advantage in
the making of cheese. A gentleman
from Tennessee was recently telling
us of the cheese making possibilities
of his immediate neighborhood. He
said they had caves finely adapted to
the curing of cheese. The home-mad
cheese can no longer compete with the
factory made cheese. but for home use
It is often q desirable product.

Live Stock Figures.-The number OF
swine decreased S4O.c33 in 1897. max
ing a decrease Of nearly 100000 in
the past three years. The decrease for
81 was considerably less than for the
preceding two years. The number of
horses decreased 403.756, making a
total decrease for three years of g
O00.00O, or fully 10 times as many as
were ever annually used on street rail-
roads. yet the substitution Of eiec-
tricity for horse power On such roads
has been made to account very largely
for the prevailing low price of horses.

Dried Brewers Grain.-Dried Brew

from beer manufacture. 1t consists OF

from the barley by the action of dis

Shyirg in Horses.-A recent writer
gives an ingenious explanation for the

few enemies when out on the plains.
where speed was his protection. But
every bush or tuft of long grass might,
and often did. contain fierce foe ly-
ing in ambush. Many time must the
wild horse have saved his life by a
sudden swcrve and leap in the cppo-
site direction the moment he heard
the rustic of the leaves. In this way
the habit of shyress in a horse is a
relic of the instinct OF his ancestors.

Malt Sprouts.-Ma!t used in beer
manufacture is prepared by moistening
barley and allowing it to sprout. The
sprcuting produces ferment called

ber of days, the barley is dried, and
the sprouts removed by machinery and
sold for cattle feed. The barley is now

The Democrats of both houses met
in joint caucus Monday night, pur-
s6ant to call from Chairman Jar
Wis, but remained in session only a
short time, and then adjourned
without ballOting to meet again
Wedr esday night. The adjourn
ment was forced by the Taylor and
Turley forces, who were playing for
time.
After the caucus the crowd from
the Capitol went down to the Max
we'll House where all the candidates
are stopping and began calling for
speeches. Gov. Taylor responded
He said he did not think it proper
that he should make speech until
after the Legislature had reflected
the will of the people. They had
two magnificent men as candidates
and either would represent the great
Commonwealth magnificently, and
the Legislature would make no mis-
take in selecting either one. He
had appointed Turley because ,West
Tennessee should have one of the
Senators, but with such splendid
men before them, it was, difficult fol
the Legislature to make a choice
and he had thought it best they
should compromise on an honest ole
farmer like himself.
Mr.. McMillin was then called for
and spoke briefly, and said if it was
right for the Governor to appoint
Senator Turley, why was it right fol
him to enter the race and try to bea
Turley now? When the Governor
was thinking of appointing Senator
Turley, his friends had told tn,
Governor he was making a mistake
and now the Governor confirmed
this statement by trying to beat hi
own appointee.
Senator Turley said that he haC
not sought the office, but he fel
that justice demanded that h,
should fill out the term. Since h,
had first cast a vote no platform haC
so truly expressed the principles o
Democracy as that adopted at Chi
cage. He would submit to the Leg
islature's decree and serve his State
as faithfully in the ranks as h.
would in the Senate.
Representative Carmack, Gen
Bancroft Murray and others spoke
and an enthusiastic admirer of Sen
ator Turley brought out the gra!
jacket that Turley wore during tn
war and waved it aloft.

wednssday Night-seven ballots.

The Democratic joint caucus met
again Wednesday night, and after
taking seven ballots, adjourned I'M
til Thursday night, without making
any nomination.
The first ballot resulted as follows:
McMillin 80, Turley 30 and Taylor
10. The result of the last ballot
was: McMillin 3S, Turley 80 and
Taylor 10. Representative Smith,
of Maury, who had been voting for
McMillin, voted on this ballot for
Turley; but Representative Ewell,
who had been voting for Turley,
was temporarily absent from the
room, with the result that though
McMillin lost one vote to Turley,
the Turley vote stood the same.
The number in the caucus was 8S;
necessary to choice, 10.
1t was agreed that there should
be three nominating speeches, one
for each candidate, but no seconds.
When nominations were declared
in order, Representative Brandon,
of Stewart, placed Congressman Nc
Millin in nomination. His speech
was an able presentation of Mr.. Nc
Millin's claims; it was well delivered,
and received with tremendous APP
plause. Following this came SEN
ator Parker, of Bedford, who spoke
| for
Gov. II. L. Taylor
Mr.. Parker also made fine
speech, and among other things
sent the following hot shot straight
at the McMillin forces:
