RODy Mink.

In the Pennsylvania Bulletin Secre-
tary Thomas J. Edge names the follow
ing as among the peculiarities Of ropy
milk
That the trouble is often not apparent
when the milk is first drawn from the
cow.
That, after standing a short time, the
ropiness commences to develop and in
creases rapidly in extent and viscidity.
That in many cases it is scarcely to
be detected in the milk, but is shown to
an unusual extent in the cream.
That it is more likely to show itself
during hot weather following an I'M
usually dry time
That it is more prevalent during that
portion of the season when the differ
ence of temperature between day and
night is most marked or when we have
a succession of hot days followed by
cool nights.
That it is most prevalent when the
animals are not provided with the proper
shade or other shelter from the hot sun.
That it is most commonly absent or
least prevalent during cool and moist
summers and autumns
That animals having plenty of run
ming water, shade and regular supply OF
salt are rarely affected
That the theory that small doses of
saltpeter administered every other day
will cure or prevent the evil has no
foundation in fact
That all Of the surroundings of the
disease lead to the conclusion that
whether caused by fungoid growth or
not, it is in fact a species of partial de-
composition.
That it is due to disease in the sys-
tenn of the animal, and that to be eff
fective all cures must begin there, and
that external remedies, while they may
possibly mitigate the trouble. are not to
be depended upon.
That careful examination of each
cows milk will usually show that the
whole mixed milking is infected by the
milk of single COW. and that the evil
is not as widespread as some are inclin-
ed to suppose That the fact that with
out any changes in the local surround
ings. it will disappear as rapidly as it
came warrants the conclusion that it is
due to some temporary arrangement of
some of the animal secretions

Cheaper Production of Butter.

The cost of butter, and indeed of all
dairy products, is dependent mainly on
the character of the herd The same
feed given to the best cows will make
twice as much milk and butter as it
will with ordinary scrub animals The
farmer cannot make the price of butter
higher But he owes it to himself and
family to get the very best COWS that
he can buy. so as to make the cost of
producing butter less. Of course these
better COWS must be better cared for
and better fed than are the COWS he
has been used to keeping. But when a
farmer makes the right beginning by
purchasing the best cows all the other
requisites for successful dairying will
follow naturally in their course. -Bos-

PRIVATE BUTTER MAKING.
Is 1t Waning Before the Competition
of the Creamery?

Is 1t Waning Before the competition
of the Creamery?
AS rule the private butter maker is
losing caste and losing his standing IN
the markets. says The Creamery Jour
nal. The exceptional dairyman never
had better show in competing with
the creamery, but the great mass OF
them are coming up against the stone
wall of fate But a few years ago the
private dairyman had practically the
home market at his control Now the
creameries are taking this and to the
better satisfaction Of consumers. The
farmer with few COWS is seeing that
it is not practicable to churn for family
use and sell to a few friends. They are
all shifting over COW owner and all, to
using creamery butter In the best
dairy portions Of the state creamery
butter is on the farmers tables. on the
farmers friends tables in town, in the
mansion and in the cottage
To sell at top prices in the general
markets all the farmer had to do few
years ago was to put good butter up in
creamery tubs More is necessary now
He must make enough to have fairly
large and regular supply and OF
uniform grade Otherwise it will sell
about 2 cents less than practically the
same grade in creamery butter. There
are still many retail dealers who will
pass by creamery butter and take dairy
butter in standard packages if it is of
about the same quality and will sell
unchallenged to most of their patrons
who ask for creamery butter-that is,
these retailers will take the dairy but
ter instead of creamery butter if the
price is 2 cents less-otherwise they
will take regular creamery in regular
lines and save the strain on their con-
science occasioned by dishing out
creamery butter from standard tub
filled on the farm. AS we noted above,
the large dairyman can provide ma
chinery and laugh at creameries, but
the others find it anything but mirth
provoking to be discounted Q cents a
pound in the large markets and be
frozen out in their markets

EPORTS ARE DENIED.
Statement That German Flag Has
Been Raised at Apia.

Been Raised at Apia.
Washington, Dec. 21.-The following
statement is made by the German Off
Gals here: "A press telegram of the
18th inst. from Apia via Auckland re-
ports that the German consul in Apia
has solemnly proclaimed the pending
annexation of Upolu and Savaii by Ger
many to number of Samoan chiefs on
board the German man-of-war, and
that on the same day he hoiSted the
German flag on the supreme court.
This report does not cover the re-
ports received in Berlin from the Ger
man consul in Apa, and according TO
the Instructions which he has received
from Berlin it seems absolutely untrue.
1.-THE German consul has likewise
wired on the 18th inst, but he simply
states that certain Tanu chiefs have re-
fused to pay the head tax imposed by
the three consuls, hence they had been
ordered TO leave the district by the
thirteen chiefs. The three consuls have
instructed the thirteen chiefs to send
the aggressors to Apia for trial. This
has been agreed upon"
The state department had had no
message from our consul at Apia to con-
firm the reports of fresh trouble in Sa-
moa, and this fact is regarded as suffl-
cient to show that any slight disturb
ance that might have occurred has
been much exaggerated in the report,
The officials are confident that what
ever trouble may occur will not be
chergeable TO the German officials, as
the German government is quite as
anxious as our own that the pending
treaty providing for a permanent set,
Element of the whole Samoan question
shall not be endangered at this critical
stage.

DUBIOUS FOR CANAL.
Doubtful If Favorable Legislation

New York, Dec. PA special to the

able during the present session of con-
gress Both the Nicaraguan canal COM
mittee in the senate. presided over by
Senator Morgan, and the house COM
mittee on interstate and foreign COM
merce, presided over by Mr.. Hepburn
of Iowa, propose to take the matter up
without waiting for the report of the
Walker commission. 1t is extremely i'm
probable, however. that they will ba
able to get a bill through either house
of congress before that report is avail
able.
The Walker commission. will leave
New York on Jan. 6, going direct to
Greytown, Nicaragua, by the regular
mail steamer. They will go over the
route of the Nicaraguan canal to the
Pacific side and will then go by steamer
to the Pacific end of the Panama route
The commission has now in the field
ten surveying parties. The commission
ers estimate that it will take about a
year for them to complete all their
work and make their report.
Senator Morgan has never given his
approval to the sending of the addi-
tional commissions to the isthmus, be-
ing satisfied with the information alS
ready available as to the practicability
of the canal. He will endeavor to have
his bill reported from his committee
Representative Hepburn also believes
the provision for the Walker commits
sion was intended to delay the con-
struction of a canal and will endeavor
to have his committee take up the SUBJ
ject Immediately after the holiday re-
cess.
