Good Dairy Suggestions.

In starting adairy it is impor
tant to select good cows, provide
good feed of the right kind, feeC
literally, and treat kindly. Many
cows are spoiled by rough and I'M
kind treatment, such as whipping
kicking and CLUBBING. Do not, in
the name of humanity as well az
Oh the score of good farm econo-
my, do any of these things, and Oh
the other hand card and pet them
have the best kind of an under
standing with your cows from calf
hood up. Unless you can and will
do this you better let dairying
alone. If COW kicks do not kick
back and she will soon forget to
kick and will receive you kindly.
You can coax bad tricks out of five
COWS where you can drive them
out of one.
l have had some twenty-five
years. in cheese making and have
not found it difficult to make from
thirty to fifty dollars per COW the
season. With small dairy one
can start with large tub, a tin
boiler inside a larger one, the lat
ter to hold water and the former
milk. This combination of boilers
is for the purpose of heating the
milk in proper manner.
l began with seven COWS and in
creased to thirty. For a dairy of
10 to 30 COWS it is better to have a
cheese vat, one made specially for
that purpose.
The whey is good feed for hogs
and hogs will help to pay farm
expenses.
Cheese can usually be sold for
8 to 10 cents per pound and should
be sold as soon as ready for mar
ket. L would advise initiating, as
nearly as possible, English cheese.
Cheese making pays every day. 1
know of several dairymen that
paid for farms near mine, by max
ing cheese, as l did myself.

This distinguished Senator from
South Dakota, has given the sub

exalted character of the man, re-

behalf of the best interests of his
country. He would never for one
moment have taken the position
he now occupies in SO vigorously

bottom of the subject. Senator
Pettigrew, with others made a Wis.,

the purpose of personally investi-
eating the existing condition of
Asia and their effect upon Ameri-

Honolulu and spent some time in
ascertaining the facts relative to
the expediency of taking those
Islands as part of our national
domain. His conclusions like
those of Senator White and the
other gentlemen herein mentioned
are SO deeply rooted in full ap-
probation of the import of this
action that his ardor and vigor in
opposing the same will become
one of the authorities in history
for the support of the policy that
he advocates.

Protection From Flies.

An old, tried and true remedy
for flies is pine tar and grease,
says the Progressive Farmer.
Many fisherman has found this
a welcome protection to his own
person whilst pursuing his art de-
structive to the finny tribe. For
our COWS there can be found no
more effective remedy for the at
tack of flies, and probably no
cheaper one than pine tar one part
and crude cotton seed oil two
parts. If too thick add more oil,
but the more expensive, and less
dirty it makes the COWS. We have
used two parts of oil to one of tar,
being careful to brush it on with
a piece of coarse burlay and not
use enough SO make the hair very
sticky, but enough so about two
applications per week will keep
flies looking elsewhere than on
cattle thus smeared for a free
lunch.
The best protection against flies
yet tried at the Experimental
Farm has been clutches of chic
kens used in combination with
care to clean up the cow yard re-
gularly. And droppings are
brought daily to the manure pit,
and near this the chicks have had
their homes, SO they find fruitful
scratching ground and grow fat on
fly larvae. -Aliance Farmer.
