delay OccasiOncd by our inability
to secure printers. We hope to
soon be able to claim our share of

For fear some may get a wrong

not given away. They were con
tracted for by firms who know how
and where to advertise. We hope
to add number of other repre-
sentative firms 70 our list OF al,

Migratory Weeds.

Injurious migratory weeds are usu-
ally first introduced into cities and
spread from them to the farms. says
Il contributor to Rural World. There
are a dozen chances for the original
introduction OF a weed In cities to one
upon the farm. Fine-leaved sneeze-
weed first appeared about cities In the
south, and Is now spreading to the
grazing lands and cotton fields. The
Canada thistle in ITS progress across
the continent has been distributed by
railways, first to the cities. Prickly
lettuce has usually been first observed
in cities and towns in its remarkably
rapid spread over the country. The
Russian thistle was first introduced
into the United States on q farm, but
being taken to the cities, II now most
frequently spreads from them to the
farms. In many instances these intro
duced species could have been easily
destroyed upon their first appearance
in the cities and towns, and millions
of dollars damage to the farmers thus
averted

STARTERS" In Cbcesemaking.
Prof. Campbell, before the Highland
tScotland) Agricultural Society. said:
l. First-class Cheddar cheese can
be made by using pure cultures Of a
Tactic organism. 2. This organism
abounds In all samples OF sour milk
and sour whey. 3. The system rec
commended for the preparation OF q
home made starter 10 one which exerts
a purifying influence upon the bacte-
rial content of the starter, and results
In the elimination OF bacteria which
are unnecessary IL not harmful to the
production OF a frst-class material.
4. The use of whey starter Is at
tended with results equal In every way
to those obtained from a milk starter.
or these results by far the most I'm
portant is that which shows that
home made starter. II carefully pre-
pared, comes after n few days to he
practically pure culture OF the bac-
terra desired.
Preparation of a Home Made Start
er--In order to prepare home maze
starter the dairyman has to secure two
enameed pals provided with covers.
In the one he pours fresh SKINNED
milk. and then sets 1t In fairly warm
place, 80 that in about twenty-four
hours the milk will be both sour ana
thick. When this has occurred he
skins of the surface. breaks up the
center OF the mass and takes out half
a pint. This he adds to skimmiik
which has previously been sraideu
from 1856 to 100 deg. f. and subse-
quently cooled to about Go or 20 degs.
On the following morning this snou'u
also be sour and thick. or the tempera-
ture OF setting has been too low.
Again the surface Is skinned, hait
a pint extracted as before. when IN
turn is added to third quantity OK
scalded milk. The temperature ~
which the second and all succeeding
starters are made up must be deter
mined by each worker for himseif; IL
will depend upon the temperature OF
the room where the pail Is Kept our
ing the night. On the third day the
starter produced in this way, IL OF
creamy consistence, may be used for
making the cheese-a portion, how
ever, being retained to prepare a start
err for the following day.
This process may be repeated day
after day, and II performed In care
full and clearly manner 1t will go on
throughout the season yielding good
results. AS already explained, the OPP
Grafton is one which in a very few
days eliminates undesirable bacteria.

Good and Poor Cider.-Cider made
