Making Butter.

The secretary Of agriculture has been
considering methods for further mark
ing the, butter SO that it will surely
reach the consumer for exactly what it
is. Last season it was discovered that
unscrupulous merchants availed them
selves OF the high standard of American
butter to sell it for Danish, French or
other butter, whichever brought the
highest price. 1t is the desire of the Sec
rotary to make this practice impossible,
but so far it has not been found prac-
ticable because the consumers as well as
the merchants demand butter in boxes.
There is widespread prejudice in Eng
land against butter in small packages.
The consumers prefer to have it taken
from kegs, under the impression that it
will be purer and fresher. With the
butter shipped in boxes it is possible to
stamp only the boxes, which can easily
be covered by dishonest merchants.
Agents Of the department. are taking
precautions to prevent this practice

Letter from Ward Smith.

CAMP MERRITT, SAN FRANCISCO, July
s, 1898.
DEAR FATHER:-I am we'll and hope
you and all of our friends are well.
Last Sunday after writing to you [
went to Golden Gate Park, with a
comrade whose name is Shroud. Gold
en- Gate Park is one of the finest in the
world, the sight of which is alone
worth the trip we took to viewiit. 1t
is very large and contains a large
botanical garden. all in glass houses,
and the Golden Gate Mission, which
is beyond description. | thought I
bad seen missions before, but this one
is worth all the rest. We spent nearly
the whole afternoon walking through
it and did not go into many depart
ments. The style of architecture is
Egyptian, and is divided into large
halls, art gallery, Stanley hall, ancient
church relics, ancient armor and arms.
We saw German bible that was prin-
ted in 1890. A sword worn by Napo-
leo II at the battle Of Waterloo. Hip
bone of a mastodon. / have not room
to tell of many of the wonderful things
we saw. / forgot to tell you that we
saw the transports leave for Manila.
1t was grand sight. The 51st. band
went out across the bay, making lively
music for them. Drilled in the after
noon, went to the theater in the even
ing. We should have had our equip
ments before we did, but Col. Lopez,
would not accept them. We went out
on monthly regiment inspection today.
Our Co. is in second battalion which
is composed of Cos. E, e, L, and M.
The Dakota regiment was on the same
grounds with us. We read new orders
today, only five men from our company
can leave the regiment quarters at
once now, and they must have pass.
We all make dash for the First Scar
gents tent as soon as we are dismissed
from drill at noon, to see if we get any
mail, and it does seem long time be-
tween letters. Camp life agrees with
me and | tell you | feel o. K. But we
do not like the fog which comes in
with chill in the evening and is driv-
Ell back to sea again about O'clock in
the morning. The fog is full of fine
sea foam which seems to make it more
chilly than inland fog. The weather
is fine here at the proper hours for
drilling, it being just cool enough to
make it seem very pleasant exercise
for the men. We each have for camp
mess knife, fork, spoon, l tin
plate, ! canteen; knife and fork are
made with iron handles, steel spoon
tin plated. Our plates are nine inch
tin pie plates, canteen holds two quarts
are we'll made and covered with can
vass Our rifles are Springfield breech
leaders. They are just the thing we
need as they will not get out of order
as easily as some magazine guns. We
have been drilling much of the time
for the past few days and are all i'm
proving rapidly. The doctors have
condemned the water we are drinking,
SO we are now using boiled water. We
are all wishing for movement of some
kind, we cannot tell how soon the
transports will be ready to take us to
Manila. But we expect to go in few
days now. There has not been much
to write about since l wrote last so 1
must sheath my pencil for this time.
Give my love to all my friends.
AS ever your loving son,
WARD B. SMITH.

ocTAGoNAL BARN.

in at the center and disposed Of all
around the building. There is the least
possible work in attending to the cattle
and especially in their feeding. This
form Of building is the most economic
al, takes the least quantity of lumber
and needs the lightest of framing stuff
outside, only requiring heavy beams
and stout supports under them on the
lower floor 1t is the strongest of all
kinds of framing except an exact circle
and has the most available space inside
for the length Of wall of any figure ex-
cept the circle, and it closely approaches
this economy of space, for one has every
thing in it right under his hand, to be
reached with the fewest possible steps.
In the building of an octagonal barn a
few directions may be useful The low
or part, Of course, needs to be of stout
timbers to hold up the great weight of
stuff that may be heaped in above.
With post of 8 by 10 timber at each
corner the other intermediate posts
may be by 4; the plates need not be
over 6 by 10, with joists 8 by 10 be-
tween the beams. The upper part may
be all built balloon fashion, leaning in
to the center somewhat in the way of
mansard or French roof, with the top of
the roof having all the rafters meeting
in small, octagonal frame, on which
a cupola is built. This gives very
picturesque and pleasing shape to the
building and makes the stiffest and
strongest frame that can be put to-
gether.
The plates on the first floor may be
by 10 inches, halved together at the
corners and then tied by half inch
thick and two inch wide iron strap
bent around the timber 10 inches from
the corner and held by one inch bolt
through the strap in both sides of the
timber and through the timber as we'll.
This ties the joint perfectly and entire
ly prevents spreading of the joint.
There is row of posts at the corners of
the feed t1oughs, and the beams may be
carried from these to the center, resting
on posts around which feedroom is
built, or this central space may be left
open SO that the feed may all be thrown
down from the floor above into this CEN
trail space, or if the fodder is cut above
it will all come down into this space,
which is occupied by the feed mixing
boy. If steam is used to do the work,
the engine will be in the cellar, or if
windmill this will be on the top of the
barn, which will be better than steam,
as perfectly safe from fire. Live steam
may be carried several hundred feet in
pipes wrapped in asbestus or mineral
wool and then buried two feet in the
ground within a wooden box.

MILK SANITATION.
Points For Creamery Men Who Want to
Supply the Great Cities.

Supply the Great Cities.
Julius Maldenhawer of Washington,
in letter to The Breeders Gazette,
says that the average creamery men who
only make butter and cheese and who
never tried to supply cream or milk for
family use generally give very little
thought to sterilization. Still am sure
IT they would make more use of the steam
which they have so easy at hand many
trouble in their products would be
overcome, the cause of which now is
mystery to them. consider it of the
utmost Importance that all utensils and
implements used for milk should be
boiled or steamed. Watts, churns and
large implements, after being washed
and rinsed with hot water, should be
steamed by applying steam hose, es
pecially to all seams. The fact is that
no matter how carefully we scrub and
wash germs Of all kinds will breed and
keep alive in all cracks and out of the
way places, and only steam or boiling
water can kill them or at least make
them harmless. Therefore it is also
very important that then patron who
supplies milk to the creamery should
have some sort Of steam boiler, SO that
he can also sterilize all his milking
pals, cans and strainers AS to strain
ers, consider none better on the farm
than several layers of thin muslin or
butter cloth or light flannel, but quite
number of such should always be in
use, SO that those just used can be thor
oughly cleaned, boiled and air dried be-
fore again being used. AS to the ship
ping cans, if the creamery man is not
quite sure that they are scalded as they
should be on the farm he must SO ar
range that they are cleaned and steamed
at the creamery before being returned.
This is really always the best plan, ex-
cept when sweet or even pasteurized
skimmilk is taken back in them. To
haul sour milk back in the shipping
cans is such an old fashioned nuisance
that no respectable creamery should
permit it. We all know how much
easier work it is to clean can as soon
as emptied than after several hours ex-
posure to hot air and allowed to dry and
harden the remnant of milk in the
Saams

A Shelter For Cows Which Combines
Comfort and Economy.
An octagonal barn, combining com
fort and economy, is described by The
Country Gentleman. 1t is 80 feet i'll
diameter, but has floor space for the
COWS of over $50 feet, affording room
for 80. 1t is an example of the economy
Of material and labor that is possible in
this compact style of building, for the
total cost, with cellar, is under 81, 600,
and without the cellar not more than
$780, 1t will need 30, 600 feet of rough
lumber, 5000 feet of dressed siding,
$4,000 shingles and 1900 cubic feet of
concrete in the wall under it. 1t has
ample space on the main floor for feed
ing The hay and grain all come down
into the central place, and by having a
special arrangement on the upper floor
the hay and fodder may all come down
ready cut into the mixing boxes on the
feeding floor.
The lower floor is arranged SO that
wagons may be driven through the
building and the hay and grain taken

Profitable Cheating.

In spite Of honesty being the best
policy, says correspondent of an agri-
cultural exchange, it sometimes pays to
practice little deception upon the
COW. The analyses of corn fodder and
wheat straw are practically the same if
we leave out of consideration the pro-
tein. This is Of course the most impor-
tant element as far as milkmaking is
concerned, but if we have only limited
amount of rough feed it is cheaper to
buy the protein in some concentrated
form and use the available carbohy-
drates in the wheat straw-that is, pro-
vided the stock will eat the straw. And
here is where l have always stuck, for
my stock have positively refused to eat
straw. This year | cut up some fodder
that was rather damp to store and to
keep 1t cut up some wheat straw at the
same time and mixed with the fodder.
l supposed that the stock would eat the
fodder and leave the straw, but they
ate the straw just MS clean as the fod-
der. I suppose that the two being stored
together the straw absorbed the scent
of the fodder, and thereby became more
palatable to the stock. Anyway they
ate it, and as am short of roughage
this year all my cut fodder shall have
an addition of straw to help out. In
this way l shall utilize some of the
feeding value of the straw that would
otherwise go to waste. 1t is perfectly
sweet and wholesome and will in no
way injure the flavor of the milk or
butter, nor will it in any way injure
the stock to which it is fed
