is no wonder that such cream makes
the gilt-edge butter that commands
premium in all the markets.
Delay in dreaming milk is always
more or less fatal. Dispatch is the
prime necessity in handling the cream
in a dairy. This, however, is only
possible with a separator The fresh
milk has not had time to get con-
taminated by coming in contact with
impurities before it is creamed. and
this is a very important point to con-
slider. Cream raised by the old meth
cd always becomes inocuiated with
the bacteria OF acidity, while the
cream separator is not so injured. =
1t is the opinion of experts that a
separator ought to pay for itself in
one season on farm large enough to
accommodate twenty cows. 1t is i'm
possible in this age to command the
highest price for butter unless it is
made after the most approved meth
DDS. 1t is no use for the farmer and
dairyman to turn up their noses at the
so-called fine-flavored butter: their
lust as good" butter will not do.
1t is this fine flavor that consumers
pay their extra money for.-E. r.

Chicks need water as son as they
need food.
The ch ok at three days shows what
it's form will be at maturity.
Mark your chicks before you take
them from the nest or incubator.
Collect eggs daily, keeping them in
a dry cool place. Do not fail to turn
those intended for Matching.
Use only sharp sand and gravel;
that which is smooth and water worn
cannot do it's work effectively.
Add kerosene to your whitewash
and let the whitewashing be always in
season. Too high a degree of clean
illness cannot be attained.
If you grease the young chicks head
to free it from vermin, use olive oil
sparingly, treating the bird at night.
1t will be found superior to lard.
Young chicks must be kept from
wind and sun for the first week or ten
days, else they are liable to serious
bowel arrangements.
Never coddle chickens. Let them
run as much as possible in the open
air. Coddling chickens stunts their
growth.
After two weeks old give chickens
fine cut meat all they can assimilate
while their young feathers are grow
ing and do not forget that broken grain
assists in Osseous formation.

SEPARATORS ON THE FARM.

In view of the fact that the farm
has passed the experimental
stage, and its utility is no longer open
to doubt, it seems little strange that
more of them are not in use The
question that may probably rise in
considering the value of a separator is,
will it pay on small farm? To the
inexperienced the initial cost of a
separator may seem high, from $50 up.
One of the great virtues of the sepa-
rator is thoroughness, and thereby
much is saved that by old methods
would be lost. Count this waste up
series of years, and it would
be found to amount to far more than
the cost of the separator.
Moreover, much of the ordinary farm
butter is faulty, and this is due, in
most cases, to poor dreaming of the
milk. Good butter cannot be made
from faulty cream Here is where the
separator comes in as valuable adj
junct. The cream of fresh milk that
comes direct from the separator is as
near perfection as possible, and there

A NEW BONANZA.

Col. W. S. Morrow OF 20 Broadway.
New York, is in Sonora, and has a
force of men developing some new
mines eighteen miles east of Minas
Prietas that give promise of being as
rich as the Grand Central mine and
others at Minas Prietas and La Colo
RADIO. Mr.. Morrow has organized two
companies to work the mines of the
group One is the Guillermina and the
other the Yaqui company. Don Pedro
B. Chisem of Guaymas is interested In
both companies, and Colonel Morrow
is Superintendent and general man
ager.
Work is being prosecuted on tne
Yaqui mine just now, and the mann
snaft is down seventy feet and Is IN
a fifteen foot vein of ore that Will av-
erage So per ton, and it is per1ectly
free milling, like that OF the Grdo
Central, or the celebrated La Coioraoo
group, near by. This is splendlo
showing for big mine, and II the ore
holds out for one hundred feet more
in the shat on which contract mas
lust been let, the mine will be one OF
the best in the country.
Colonel Morrow is well known on
this coast as a practical mining man,
having come west in 1854, and has
been across the continent % times. He
was one of the first miners in Cal1for-
mia during her palmy days, and knows
all the old people of those days. Al
though now 6S years old, the colonel
is hale and hearty and is more active

HOMEMADE VINEGAR.
1t Can Be Made From Apricots and
Other Fruit.

Wash one pound dried apricots put
them in two-gallon jug, add four
quarts of water, tie thin cloth over
the neck of the jug to keep out dust
and insects, but admitting the air,
which is essential. Shake well daily.
The fourth day add one and one-half
halfpints Of molasses and one quart
of sharp vinegar. The fruit will form
the mother or plant. To this add oc-
casionally water in which apricots
have been soaked, mixing seven parts
water and one part molasses, always
keeping this as the plant In two
weeks it will be fit to pour off and bot
tie.
Vinegar From Fresh Apricots.-
Crush two gallons of the fruit, place in
a jar or key, add sufficient water to
cover well, allowing one part of mo-
lasses to seven parts of water. Tie a
thin cloth over the top, stir daily for
several days. This will form the plant
to which you may add as desired, ap-
ricots, water and molasses in same
proportions. In four weeks it will be
fit for use. Pour off and bottle.
Apple and peach parings treated in
like manner also make fine vinegar.

HISTORY OF MINING PROSPECTS

The mining industry is Singularly Pc
culiar in the instance that it is one
which writes its own history on the
worlds page of social progress, says
the Mining and Metallurgical Journal.
From the earliest times and down
through the ages to the present date
this fact holds good, both in the old
and new worlds. The prehistoric OPP
Grafton of ore bodies in early and mod
ern times is an interesting branch OF
LIE eeologists' work, and the records
made show the advances accomplished
as well as the failures made. Every
prospect shaft or tunnel stands as
monument of success or failure. Inc
permanent marks thus made tell In
the future for or against the industry,
unless obliterated or filled up, which
circumstance rarely occurs. 1t is this
lasting evidence of mining operations
which is so often pointed to as being
due to the risk and speculative nature
of the mining industry, when at this
date uncertainty only belongs to the
prospect and early stages of discovery
and exploitation in the operation OF
properly managed mine.
In our cities and towns, or even in
agricultural life there is no such rec
ord left of the many failures in all
lines of trade and in the professions,
except in the instance where church
is converted into a store, or laundry,
or put to some other use than regener-
ating the morals of it's members. A
party goes into business and makes a
failure, and in a few months another
takes his place in the same or another
limo of trade and all evidence OF the
failure is gone. But the successful
prospector, who sinks test pit or
runs tunnel, is not always so FORUM
ate as to have his failure jumped by a
party with more capital or courage,
and leaves behind him lasting evidence
of his work and misfortune. Instances
are common where a prospector ex-
pected to discover one mineral and,
quite unknowingly, he was mining an
other of equal or more value from that
which he expected, or he was told so
by some one with more knowledge OF
cres or minerals of the value of his
discovery.
The mining industry, even in its
prospecting stage, is not attended with
greater risk when the operation is
conducted by miner or prospector OF
experience and intelligence), than the
risks taken in trade or business, al
though from the facts before men
toned, the history of the failures Is
written on the page of nature in last
ing and permanent way, which makes
them appear more numerous than they
really are in proportion to ordinary
trade risks and failures.-Western

PROFIT IN GRAPE FRUIT.

The remarkably high price obtained
IN the eastern markets for grape fruit.
especially since the freeze in Florida.
has drawn much attention to this
branch of the horticultural industry in
southern California during the past
year n considerable acreage of grape
irult has been set out in favored local
tues, but it is likely to be several years
before the growing demand for this

public. There is certainly room for a

before the limit of profitable culture
shall have been reached. Even here.
IN Los Angeles, the price atewhich this
fruit is retailed is SO high as to place
1t beyond the reach of people of mod
crate means. In fact, grape fruit lust
now is about the only fruit which is. in
demand beyond the supply. Referring
to grape fruit culture, the Florida Ag-
riculturist says:
Not long since the average north
erner looked upon the pome1o or grape
fruit, as a curiosity, not to be eaten
as much as seen; sort of anomaly OF
freak in the vegetable kingdom-both

public opinion has been rapid and won
derful, until now it is considered as
ranking among the finest of fruit pro-
duced in Florida. 1t has just worked
itself high in public favor when the
freeze of '95 cut down the trees and
greatly reduced the supply, so that the
balance speedily reached fancy prices.
Let those who are thinking of set
ting out pomelo grove remember
that at present rates it will pay hand
somely to house the trees and heat the
protected areas with steam, for this
popular demand for the pomele is not
a mere fad, but has come to stay and
will doubtless vastly increase Los
Angeles Times.
Growing SO rapidly in public favor
it is not probable that an over-produc-
ton will soon be reached, it behooves
those below the frost line to add a fair
proportion of these trees to their or
chards, thereby having crop for
which demand exists at remunera-
tive prices.

SORGHUM AS FORAGE.

The Chino Champion remarks that the
Introduction of sorghum as a forage
crop this year suggests the value Of
the silo, especially for dairymen. Sor-
ghum makes an excellent ensilage,
and may be found to be a good crop
to be grown in ordinary years on our
uplands for dairy forage, either direct
from the field or as ensilage. Its
drought resisting quality will undoubt-
eddy make it one of the most profitable
crops for our dryer lands.
