Secretary McKeen of the state board of
agriculture reports that all of the fairs in
Maine which were entitled to the state
stipend will receive it with one exception
that of York county. This society is
said to have advertised that "every thing
would go" at its exhibition. meaning that
pool selling and such things would be
tolerated by the management, and for this
reason the state aid has been Withdrawn.
The figures collected in connection with
the fairs are of interest. The total
amount of premiums and gratuities paid
was $I6,574 50; amount of trolley
purses, SIC, 1882 IS; amount Of entry fees
for trotting purses, $S,7o2.23: actual cost
of trotting purses, $I2,72o SO. The
number of societies which now receive the
state stipend is As, an increase of four
over 1896. For some time past Mr.. Nc
Keen has been actively engaged in hunt
ing up witnesses and obtaining facts. and
hopes to be able to convince the governor
and council, if the matter is brought be-
fore that body, that the York county
fair was not conducted last year in a
way to entitle the association to receive
aid from the state. There has been far
too geat laxity on the part of societies in
regard to the character of the outside
features allowed al their fairs and the peo-
pie of the state will support SECRETARY Nc.
Keen in his efforts to purge them from all
gambling devices, making them clean,
wholesome and attractive.

sheep Notes.

Breeders raising early lambs for the
maiket coming in February should make
ample preparations to give them warm
reception We have cold weather in
March.
Early lambs are good property, and
breeders of this stock should have them
fully prepared at the expiration of 50 days
from their birth.
Much care should be exercised in CIV
ing feeding sheep the finishing touches.
Don't overload them with corn. If they
eat too much, it is certain to hurt them
for market, or kill them outright.
Feeders should have no difficulty in
obtaining sufficient wool from their sheep
this spring to pay for feeding. Shear the
sheep.
Parties contemplating entering the
sheep business cannot do better than per-
chase now. Sheep are nearing the divi-
dend which will soon be paid by many
flocks. Begin now.
Breeders, give the sheep change occas-
ionally. Give them few cabbages, some
roots, or similar foods occasionally.
Dry, rich food, like corn and oil meal,
causes constipation, and very often smaller
Affections from the lack Of sufficient vegte-
able matter.

An interesting proposition is that made
in the Maine Farmer recently for New
England butter exhibition. 1.-The butter

free from distinguishing marks. privately
tagged. No tag allowed to be exposed, all
awards to be made by the use Of the score
card. The judge in every case being re
quired to place upon each card his reasons
for making any out for defect" The
proposition includes only the three north
ern New England states. But the three
southern ones ought to be included, and
the exhibit to be held at a central point,
like Boston. The general idea is a good
one, its scope when extended insures a
large and attractive exhibit. New Eng
land needs dairy show adequately set
ting forth her dairy interest. easily acces-
sible, and tree from any suspicion of un-
fairness or partisan interests. Speakers
of national reputation should be secured.
The only obstacle is the difficulty in secur-
ing the 81 500 or more required to run
the proposed meeting. Whether this
serious difficulty can be overcome can
only be discovered by trial.-Mass

How to Get Well-FlMvOred
Milk.

Nothing so markedly effects the flavor
of milk, and consequently butter and
cheese, as the character of the dairy feed.
All know that the finest and most deli
cately favored honey Is produced from
the white clover blossoms, and pastures
,hickly sprinkled with the same plant pro-
duce feed from which comes number
one milk and butter. Coarse grasses
import a rank flavor to dairy products, as
a rule, and should be excluded from the
ration of the mich COW. Thousands Of
acres of pasture land which would other
wise be in the best of condition ate
practically spoiled by being over run with
noxous weeds and bushes. In the West
Alfalfa imparts its peculiar though not
unpleasant flavor to milk, while in the East
every one is now familiar with the taste OF
ensiagemik and butter
Valuable forage crops which are now
the very foundation of modern dairying
cannot be discarded because they trans
mi, their strong vegetable favor to milk,
but by thorough aeratlon OF the fresh
milk much OF the unpleasant foreign
flavor can be eliminated and at the same
time the keeping quality OF the milk be
assured.
Where noxiops Vegetation abounds as
in neglected pastures, the remedy is not
to palate the evil, but to remove it. The
mich cattle and dairy methods may be
improved but not until the cows Craze in
a pasture containing only sweet, nutritious
grasses are dairy methods correct or
profitable. 1t is not hobby to dote on
fine flavor for dairy products. If you
wish to have your dairy goods sought
after in the market and command best
prices, make flavor a specialty.-7A,J

Cow Food Economics.

Cheap foods do not give the farmer any
advantage unless snch foods can be pro-
cuced on the farm at small outlay for
labor. When foods are purchased, how
ever, the cheapest kinds are those that
give the most product. Ten quarts OF
milk can be produced for almost the same
cost as five quarts under same coalitions,
because the labor required in caring for
the animal is the same when only quart
of milk is derived as for ten quarts.
Every additional quart gained is almost
clear profit, and for that reason the object
during all seasons Of the year should be
to so feed the cows as to keep them at the
maximum Of production, always cost to
meet, and which is reduced proportion
ately to the production. 1t is cheaper to
spend s. to make $40 than to spend 81 to
make S.

Self-Indulgence.

Bishop John H. Vincent said in an ad.
dress before the Kansas State Temper
ance Union that the onward march of the
curse OF intemperance was attributable to
selfindulgence.
"Self-indulgence," the Bishop said, "is
responsible for the evils with which we
are con'ending today. We must begin
at the bottom and not wait until the
habits of men are formed before we
attempt to teach them the error into
which they have falleu. Our boys and
girls should be brought up with knowl-
edge Of cooking and business, of physical
conditions and economy, and proper
conception Of evil. We should first do
away with the execrable an inexcusable
chewing. gum habit, which makes million
airs out Of few men in few years and
does no one any good. The soda
fountain habit is another evil. must
also mention cigarettes These are all
small things, but if properly managed in
youth will lay the foundations which
guard against the worst evils. self-indul-
gence. 1t is waste of money which in
later years makes slaves out of boys and
girls. 1t deprives them of self control,
the most important and potent factor in
opposing evil. Let us cultivate in our
children the heroism which enables them
to resist the assault of temptation, The
agencies we should employ constantly are
the press, the pulpit, the parlor and the
schools. Let us retain our abuse for the
men who fail to perform their duties !;
men in high Offices who sanction the
violation of the law and protect those who
are engaged in the traffic which will
destroy our homes and send our children
to graves of disgrace"

Bulletin Of she Maine A grisultaral Expert
ment etasion.
Dehorning cattle has been extensively
practiced in many parts OF the country.
In the dairy sections, THE need and ad
vantages OF dehorning are not as well un-
derstood as on the ranges where cattle
run together 10 large herds. The sub
ject is attracting considerable attention
just at present in this State and the bull.
letin on Dehorning now being distributed
by the Maine Agricultural Experiment
Station will be read with unusual interest.
The following conclusions regarding
dehorning are taken from the bulletin.
Dehorning is to be recommended be-
cause dehorned cattle are more easily
cared for than those with horns, and be-
cause dehorned cattle enjoy life better.
"a great deal of suffering is prevented by
the removal of horns"
To dehorn mature animals, clippers
should be used that will remove the horn
perfectly at single stroke and in mo-
ment OF time
When it is skilfully performed. animals
do not give evidence of great suffering as
an effect of dehorning. The tissues in,
jured in dehorning are not very we'll sup
piled with nerves and they are very quick
ly cut through, Good evidence that de-
horning is not very painful is the fact
that cattle will resume feeding immedi-
ately after being operated upon, and the
yield of milk in cows is not preceptibly
affected. Compared with castration o.
colts and calves, dehorning may be
considered painless.
Those who are familiar with the oper.
alton of dehorning and the results are its
most enthusiastic advocates.
In the past, efforts have frequently beer
made to prevent the practice of dehorn'
ing on the ground that it causes needless
pain. 1t would seem to us that efforts
can now better be expended by endeavor'
ing to have the last relic of a horr
removed from our domestic cattle.
