The amount of cream thrown up on
milk is such a misleading guide that it
has long ago been given up in the milk
ing tests of the British Dairy Farmers
association, and we now depend on an
analysis alone. While American eX-
amount of butter which can be recOv-
cred from a given quantity Of milk
there may be variation Of as much as
50 per cent, depending on the nature Of
the food given, all the while the
analyses Of two differing milks may be
approximately alike-in other words,
the 'risibility'' of the cream and the
''churnability" of the same are large
ly influenced by the nature Of the food,
While the chemical analysis of the milk
is not Influenced at all or only to q
slight degree or temporarily.
One does not break with the beliefs
of his youth very easily, and l have
been hard to convince myself that the
quality of the milk did not directly de-
pend on the quality Of the food, but
when all the experiments that have
actually been tried on the point bear
out the new theory i am bound to
come to the conclusion that the quality
of the food by itself alone has little or
nothing to do with the quality of the
milk.-P. c. Mcconnell, B. Sc, in Agri-
cultural Gazette, England. -!

THE MYSTERY OF DREAMS.
A Case in Which the Condolences
Were Remarkable.

A Case In Which the Condolences
Were Remarkable.
On an occasion during the civil war
l dreamed that was standing beside
a road when there came marching
along it a strong column of prisoners,
with guards at intervals on the
TANKS | asked one of these guards
who the prisoners were and where
they had been captured. He informed
me that they had been taken in an en-
gagement with the enemy on the
day before and that there were 1000 of
them. | then asked some byStander
what day Of the month it was and was
told that it was such a day of a certain
month, some six weeks later than the
date of the dream. The whole dream
was extremely distinct, and it made
strong impression on me. | related it
to number of my comrades within
the next few days and then thought Of
it no more.
Six weeks later, on the morning of
the very day that had been mentioned
in the dream as the date when the
column of prisoners had passed before
me- was on picket two miles distant
from the point where l had seemed to
be when | saw them It was soon aft
err breakfast, ana l was standing by
the side Of the road at the fire talking
to the officer Of the picket when an
aid to the commanding general came
riding down the road. He had been
schoolfellow of our officers at West
Point and reined up when he recog-
nized his friend. He told us that he
had good news, that there had been a
sharp engagement with the enemy the
day before and that our people had
captured 1900 prisoners, who had
just passed the headquarters that
morning on their way to the rear.-St.

the president to the squadron proved to

great fighters that he suddenly made
up his mind to inspect all of them. Ac

York, cruiser Brooklyn, and the battle
ships Indiana, massachusetts and
Texas. 1t was his intention to also Wis
it the cruiser Detroit, but much to his
regret he was unable to do so on &C
count of lack Of time.
There was almost a continuous roar
of guns during the one and three-quar-
tiers hours that it took to inspect the
vessels. IN all 462 guns were fired by
the squadron in presidents salutes.
During the early afternoon everything
was hustle on the six big vessels and
the decks of all of them were soon

CuriOsities In the Museum of a Clock
Making Village.

Making Village.
In the town of Schramberg in the
Black Forest district Of Wurttemberg,
Germany, where one of the chief in
dustries is clock making, there has
recently been established an interest
ing museum of timepieces. The col
lection displays the gradual develop
ment in the making Of clocks for many
centuries.
Among the curiosites are many of
great historical value There is an
alarm clock constructed in the year
1850 for the use of travellers. In form
it resembles q lantern and the interior
is designed to hold a lighted candle.
The candle is slowly pushed forward
by a spring, which also controls the
mechanism of the clock A little pair
of shears clip the wick Of the candle
automatically every minute to regulate
it's light. The lantern is inclosed with
movable slides, so that the sleeper is
not at first disturbed by the presence
Of light.
The alarm is set by inserting a peg
in the second dial plate. When the
required hour arrives, the alarm is
sounded and at the same time the
movable slides fall. flooding the room
with light

saw clock. The clock itself produces
