with the Fading of Beauty.

A 16-year-old girl imagines that she
is an angel and never gets over it.
After woman gets old she thinks Of
how she was admired and compliment
ed in her youth and feels that some
great wrong was done her because she
did not remain as pretty as she was at
16. If she is married, she is apt to lay
the blame on the brutality of her hus-
band; if she is an old maid, she lays it
on her father, who was poor. and thus
forced her to work. which resulted in
a STOPPING figure and harsh features.
A man never has this experience, He
is at his worst at 1 6 and does not reach
his best until he is 26 to 80 By that
time he has acquired little sense, and
never mistakes a compliment for the
truth. --Atchison Globe

Preserving Milk.

A scientific journal states that boracic
acid is an excellent and harmless pre-
sentative of milk and that in the guam
titles necessary to presentation. e.,
according to the length Of time for
which it is desired to preserve the
milk-its presence cannot be detected
either by the sense of taste or smell.
Five grains to the gallon will preserve
the milk from one to three days, &C
cording to the care exercised in the
cleansing of the containing vessels and
the temperature. 1t is somewhat sur
prising that this innocuous substance
should have acquired an evil reputation
in the public mind. It is stated on good
authority that although vague state
ments about it of an injurious nature
have from time to time Eeen spread by
it's opponents not a single instance Of
injury to health by boracic acid has
been substantiated. Within the last
three months DR.. G.. Liebreich, director
of the Royal Pharmaceutical institute
in Berlin, said, at the instigation OF
Professor Virchow, he had carried on a
long series of experiments with boracic
acid and had convinced himself that it
was admirably adapted as food pre-
sentative and in the quantities neces-
sary for that purpose it was quite
harmless. He added that neither in
actual practice nor according to author
itative literature has case been known,
SO far as he was aware, in which food
prepared or preserved with borax or
boracic acid had exercised deleterious
effect on the health Of any individual.

BIRD FLIGHT.

They flock upon the hazy air,
Silent of note and purposeful of wing
Nor gossip of the nesting time
Disturbs their rhythmic, air born swing.
Across the dying fields light shadows fall
That, for moments space, obscure the sun:
Then swift-a graceful troop-they wing their
way,
Pursued in haste by some belated one.
Now all the stubble land turns twilight gray
Album with mystic runes and harvest rills.
Above the watching world tiny speck
Grows pale and fades against the southern
hills.

Would Apply Equally to Elephants.

Canon Lyttleton told an amusing
story at Glasgow the other day con-
corning Professor Jebb. The members
of the recent educational commission,
upon which beth Professor Jebb and
Canon Lyttleton served, were discuss
ing each phase of the report that they
were going to send to parliament to de-
termine whether it expressed sufficient
ly the exact shade of meaning the COM
mission intended The phrase. the
teachers of England, highly trained
and intelligent set of men," was read
out. Some of the members of the COM
mission demurred to the adjectives, but
the writer of the sentence spoke up Tor
them. Professor Jebb whispered to the
canon that they would apply equally
well to elephants-after which the
phrase was speedily excised.
The real proof Of the pudding is in
the digesting.
When a man fails he tries to make
virtue of necessity.

RABCOCK SYSTEM.
The Rigaha Way of Pooling Milk or
Cream.

The Rsgha way of Pooling Milk or
Cream.
We notice, says Hoard's Dairyman,
that the patrons of the Amherst Mass.
crea merry are seriously discussing the
propriety of adopting the Babcock test
i'm place of the space system, which
now prevails among them. The report
says that the space system will be con-
tinued with those patrons who prefer it.
Why they should prefer it is incom-
prehensihle to those who have studied
the better and more truthful way Of the
Babcock method. The Dairyman would
suggest that the space patrons be kept
by themselves. In short time we be-
lieve the distinction which is bound to
show itself will teach them the unreli-
ability of their present method of pool
ing results.
When the Hoard creameries intro
duced the Babcock system in 1891, the
same opposition was shown, but 1t
came principally from those patrons
whose COWS gave milk of low per cent
of fat
To accommodate the situation to
their motions the following compromise
was made: All those whose milk tested
above per cent fat would receive by
the Babcock test. Those whose milk
tested under that per cent were accord
ingly allowed to pool their milk in an
other vat by weight.
1t was somewhat amusing to note the
result The patrons furnishing rich
milk were well satisfied. The others
soon tired of each others company, for
there was nothing to be gained in such
association, and it was not long before
they were willing to come into the gen
eral whole on the Babcock plan. In six
months the average fat content of all
the milk was raised from 8. 81 per cent
for five years previous to 4. 81 per cent.
Where this extra butter fat came from
has not yet been clearly explained.
Some of it no doubt was due to the
elimination of the ''moral hazard - but
in the main we believe it was due to
the fact that the Babcock placed every
man on his own responsibility, face to
face with himself, and gave him full
credit for all the fat he brought to, the
general pool That fact caused him to
dispose of the COWS that gave ''thin'
milk, made him feed and care for his
COWS in a better manner, and put
creamery and patrons both on an up
ward grade

ICE REFRIGERATION.
How to Secure the Best Results as
Least Cost.

How to Secure the Best Results at
Least Cost.
Some II years ago, writes George Il.
Gurler of Illinois, FL. B. Gurler and
myself built our first creamery and re-
frigerator. We thought it sufficient to
partly surround a tightly closed room
with ice SO on one side of our icehouse
we made room about IL by 18 and 8
feet high and packed the ice on one side
and overhead when we filled the house.
When warm weather came, the sides
and ceiling began to gather moisture,
and the room was wet and damp. The
ice, too, melted rapidly, and the whole
thing was unsatisfactory.
Some years later we thought we could
improve this room by creating circu-
lation of air. This we did by putting
the ice in the top of the room and al
lowing the hot air to pass around the
ice and become cooled. By later expert
ence an satisfied that our idea of Gre
ating a circulation was all right, but
our way of doing it was not.
AS type of later and better re-
frigerator it might be well to describe
one / recently built. This room is ap-
proximately by 10 and feet high,
made of three thicknesses Of matched
lumber and building paper laid in such
shape as to leave two air spaces IL
inches wide around the sides and top.
The door into the butter room is made
the same way and Hanged like the door
of a safe. One window with double
sashes and blinds admits what light is
necessary.
In one side of this room is built the
box or rack for the ice It is s feet long
by 3 feet wide and extends from the
ceiling to within p feet of the floor.
The bottom is made of 2 by set edge
wise two inches apart and capable OF
easily supporting the 10 to Is cakes of
ice the rack is designed to hold. The
drip from the ice is carried off by tin
conductor under the by 6. The sides
and ends of the box are boarded up to
within six inches Of the ceiling, which
space is left open one side of this rack
being also the side of the building. The
ice is easily put in through a small
closely fitting door.
I think a better circulation is obtain
ed and less ice used by having the ice
near the floor as in the above room, the
cold, heavy air passing from around the
ice to the floor and the warm, light air
being forced from the top of the room
through the space at the top Of the ice
rack and in turn becoming cooled. This
room is as dry and sweet as any room in
the building, and no particle of moisture
or dampness gathers either on the sides
of the room or on the tubs Of butter.
used from 40 to SO tons Of ice IN
this refrigerator last season and had as
high as IS to 80 tubs per week in it.
The temperature was low enough
throughout the summer to keep the but

so degrees f. would not be unreason-
able.
