Guinea Fowl

These birds must be we'll known to
be appreciated, writes correspondent
of Country Gentleman. From childhood
we have had them on the farm. from
3 to ESQ in flock. They are no trou-
BILE whatever, lay their eggs in nests
which they make in the grass and
wheatfields, we often finding nests
with from 3 to Is eggs piled on top
OF each other. From some of the nests
we take part of the eggs, and leave
some for them to raise their young.
They sit, hatch and raise their broods,
and we often do not see them until late
in the fall, when they bring their
chicks home, sometimes as many as
twenty in flock. Such chfrping, such
flying up trees! TIE little keets look
much like cartridges when about that
size. They are splendid meat to fry
or roast or for potpie, and to enjoy q
breast Of fowl one should eat guinea
fowl. The eggs are considered the
richest Of all eggs and keep we'll. We
put them up to use in winter, and two
years ago, when illness and death in
the family made me forget the eggs
until June, we found them Just as good
as when put away. II you try guinea
fowls you are sure to have eggs and
fowls for your table, and NO trouble
to get them,

Tho Mashonaland Doll.

No doubt the earliest manufactured
toy of all was the doll. Little girls
play with dolls everywhere, and have
always done SO. Indeed, among the
Bechuanans and Basutos at the present
time married women carry dolls until
they are supplanted by real children.
There is for its possessor a curious in
dividuality about a doll, altogether un-
accountable to other people. How Oft
en- may it be observed that a child
will neglect the splendid new FIVE shil-
ling waxen beauty, with its gorgeous
finery, and cling faithfully to the dis
reputable, noseless wreck of rags that
has been its fayorite hitherto! Some
thing causes other children, besides
Helen's babies, to dislike "buyed dol
lies" even in the presence of an article
made Of an old towel. This some
thing, whatever it is, is doubtless q
great comfort to the small girls Of
Mashonaland. It is an innocent, arm;
less sort Of affair, without any such dis.
agreement as waist or shoulders MIGHT
cause. no knee joints to get unfastened.
and nothing at the end of its legs to
cause expense at the shoemaker's. Al

approval.
Good night, Solomon" continued

A word Of protest was on the SEX

Il 10 believed that such meetings would
result in, better and purer milk being
brought to the creamery. The idea y
doubtless good one but tribe inf-
practicable. Occasional meetings
might be held, but It 10 safe to say
that monthly meeting would soon
degenerate till only half dozen per-
sons became the habitual attendants
and these would most likely be people
that would not need the influence of
such meetings. The only practicable
way would seem to be to hold such
meetings now and then without
any stated intervals. The time Of most
men is SO taken up that they do not
feel able or willing to devote a part Of
tnat time even once a month to at
tending meeting of patrons.
The ALTERNATING industry has been
greatly benefited by the cooperative
creameries. The number that has
been started during the last few years
Is very great, and would be still larg-
er were 1t not that few good locali-
ties have been practically spoiled by
bad management. In such cases too
expensive machinery has been put in
or the cows have been too few at the
start to permit butter to be made
cheaply. The creamery that has start
ed with four or five hundred good cows
to furnish 1t milk and with proper ma
chinery has generally come out on top.
1t Is true that a less number Of cows
than this will do, provided the cows
be good ones, but that is SO seldom the
case at the start that it is safer to fig-
ure on a larger number Of medium
capacity cows. The cooperative
creamery when rightly managed will
be blessing to any community, as it
causes a steady flow of currency to the
vicinity, making it possible for ex-
change Of other products to go on with
greater freedom.

Keeping Butter coos.

dere Is good plan for keeping but
ter cool in summer, says Indiana Far
mer: In the middle Of your cellar
floor dig hole or vault 81 feet deep
and 81 feet square. Wall it up with
brick laid in lime mortar and cement
and floor it with soft brick. Lay a
frame Of good hard wood in mortar
upon the top of this vault. Hinge to-
the frame trapdoor Of plank two
inches thick, making it fit smoothly
over the top. Then after the cream is
separated and cooled put it down in
the vault to ripen. Butter may be
kept there in the agreeable GOODNESS
also. If you have no separator, put the
cream into your vault so soon as YOU
have skinned 1T. there to cool and
rtpen. Once or twice week clear out
the vault and wash it thoroughly to
prevent its getting moldy. Pour cold
water upon the soft bricks of the floor.
They will absorb it and cool the air.
This Is very successful way to keep
milk, butter and cream cool in hot
weather ON farms where there is no
ice.
What Bad Butter Color Can Do

Of a butter color supposed to contain

Of Chippewa county, Wis, who was
discovered in the act Of tasting the
contents of a bottle containing tho
color. It was taken away from him
almost instantly, but the mother was
not greatly alarmed (supposing that q
material sold for use In butter could
hardly be dangerous), and did not send
for physician until four hours later.
