pig pnirx Farm 1n DELAWARE.

DR.. Paris T. Carlisle of Frederick
and DIR. Lester L. Carlisle CT Milford,
Del, brothers and men of means. have
had a lifelong experience in agricultural
pursuits and have decided that the
business of dairy farming can be car
ried on upon large scale to far greater
advantage than in limited way. Their
fine farms near there were therefore
united, and plans for their undertaking
were announced. AS safe storehouse
for various pure grains a modern barn
will be first erected. 1t will be 1875 by
80 feet and contain three silos with a
capacity of 750 tons. Near this will be
the main COW stable for sheltering in
bad weather the thoroughbred cattle
with which the place will be stocked.
1t will be S12 by 83 feet, having stall
capacity for $50 cows. AS soon as work
on these buildings is completed another
barn, of the same size and dimensions
as the first, will be built. Work is also
begun on the creamery building, SUBJ
stantial structure 1873 by 40 feet, which
will be fitted with aerators, separators
and all the modern improvements for
cream, butter and cheese making. An.
other building, 80 feet wide, for the
storage of corn, will complete the store
houses. These structures will be Of iron
all over, and the construction of an Of
fee 10 by "a feet will also be prosecuted
with the same material.

l saw a convenient article the other
day in the poultry yard of a friend,
says correspondent in The House
keeper. 1t was designed to provide
water for the little chicks without dan
ger of their being drowned or wet. For
each tank she took an old tin pail and
discarded pie plate. The pals were

and hold about four quarts. The GOV.
ers were soldered firmly in place, and
eight or ten small holes were punched
around the pail close above the seam
where the sides and bottom join. The
bottom of the pail was soldered firmly
to the pie plate, with the pail exactly
In the center of the plate. The pail
can be filled with water by placing it in
larger dish of water. The water
leaks out through the holes into the
plate beneath as fast as it is needed
but it never runs over because the pail
Is alright. The water never becomes
foul by the chickens getting into it, and
it cannot be wasted by being tipped
over. The tanks are convenient to
handle, having bail to carry them by,
and it is absolutely impossible for a
chicken to get into them.

Caring For Whey.

The proper method of caring for the
whey: l. Place the whey tank under
cover. 2. Have it SO arranged that it
can be cleaned daily. 8. The whey
should be heated to 100 F. In placing
the whey tank under cover it is protect
ed from dirt and rain. found it good
plan to keep the whey tank in the en-
CINE room. The tank, which contains
the whey, should be go arranged that it
can be easily cleaned each day just as
the watts in the make room are cleaned.
1t is only few minutes work to. wash
this tank each day, and there is no rea-
son why this tank should not be kept as
clean as the milk watts. When whey is
cooked to 100 degrees f., it remains
quite sweet for "a hours. Of course
there is some acid in it, but not enough
to injure it for feeding purposes. The
whey can be cooked with live steam, be-
ginning as soon as possible after the
whey is in the tank. The longer the
whey stands before it is heated to 100
degrees f. the more acid will be develop
ed. When whey is handled in this way,
it makes good feed for any kind of ami
mails. In feeding it to calves there
should be a small amount OF linseed
meal mixed with it. The linseed meal
to certain extent takes the place of
the casein which has been removed
from the milk, for the linseed meal is
very rich in protein matter. The ex-
pense of caring for the whey in this
way is very small, and the results are
very gratifying, both to the farmer and
the cheesemaker. In the first place, the
farmers will have good, wholesome
whey to feed to their stock, and, second
ly, the cheesemaker will have no gas
forming bacteria coming from his whey
tank Consequently, if the whey is
properly cared for, the farmer will have
better stock and the cheesemaker bet
ter cheese. Dairy Reporter.

WHOLESOME MILK.
Who Would Knowingly Use the
Product of Tuberculous COvvss

Who Would Knowingly Use the
Product of Tuberculous COwss
Generally speaking and including
children, more especially infants, whose
mothers cannot or will not give their
offspring the natural food, there is no
article of diet which is SO universally in
demand as milk. says G. w. Murtfeldt
in the st. Louis Republic. Milk, like
eggs, is perfect food If am not in
error, there is in Missouri law which
requires that the milk offered for sale
in st. Louisiana presumably in other
cities of the state-shall contain the
minimum of per cent of butter fat;
also that the cows shall be free from
tuberculosis or other diseases. DIR.
White, the state veterinarian, has is
sued to some diaries certificates that the
milk cows are free from diseases.
The natural milk as 1t comes from
the animal is freely offered at the tables
Of hotels, restaurants and boarding
houses. Even when pure and from ami
mails free from tuberculosis and other
diseases it affects some persons whose
constitutions are bilious very unpleas-
antly. Of course this result could be
obviated by using boiled milk, because
many bacteria would be killed if pres
ent. Condensed milk has been, of course,
subjected to boiling heat, but it is claim
ed, right or wrong, that that tends to con-
stipation in infants. This food is claim
ed by the makers to be better than
mothers milk. We would prefer ma
lures method. While we cannot con-
tradict that statement for want of scien-
tifc investigation, we may here ask the
question, What assurance have those
who buy that the cows which furnished
| the milk for condensation are free from
tuberculosis? Now, says the querist,
"By your own statement you claim that
the heating or boiling kills bacteria or
tuberculosis Then we again ask the
question, "Would you knowingly use
milk from cows which had tuberculosis,
even though it had been subjected to a
certain degree of heath" We fancy few,
very few, parents would use it if there
was choice offered to them.

sort of stock. But the duck has great
many qualities to commend it to- the
most careful man.
There are ten breeds of ducks raised
In this country-viz, the White .Pekin,
White Ayleshury, Rouen, Black Cayu-
ga, Colored Muscoyy, White Muscovy,
Gray Call White Call, Black East In
dian and Crested White. These are
named in the order of popularity. The
East Indian is bantam, bred for fan
cy, and the Crested White is an orna-
mental variety.
The White Pekin leads for all pur-
poses. 1t is valuable for raising on a
large scale. 1t is easily raised, but is
timid and must be handled carefully.
1t was imported from China in 1878.
Mr.. McGrath of the firm of Fogg &
Co., engaged in the China and Japan
trade, saw the bird at Picking and
thought it variety of the goose. He
procured some eggs and took them to
Shanghai where he set them under
hens and secured 10 duclzlings.

charge of James e. Palmer. Six ducks
and three brakes survived the voyage
of 124 days and reached New York
March Is, 1873. Mr.. Palmer was to re-
tain one-half of them. He took his
share home, leaving the remainder to
be sent to Mr.. McGrath's family.
These never reached their destination.
Mr.. Palmer's ducks began laying in
March. The three ducks laid 325 eggs.
From this beginning grew up the
greatest duck industry ever known in
this country.
The Pelzin has a distinct type and
differs from all others. The legs are
set well back, causing the bird to walk
in an upright position. The fowl is
large, the flesh delicate and free from
grossness. They are the best table
duck and excellent layers, laying from
125 to $50 eggs in a season. They be-
gin laying about January and continue
until late in July and again for short
time in the fall. They are nonsitters,
hardy and mature early.-Edwin w.

Ducks will not thrive under neglect.
They are prone to wander and get lost

neighboring farms unless they have

Money In Caponn.

They who wish to make money in
poultry should turn their attention to
caponizing. Any one with steady
nerves and fair eyesight can do the
work, and it is very remunerative. Be-
gin by getting book Of instructions
and set of tools; then, after becom-
ing acquainted with the directions
practice on dead chickens until you
are expert. Learn to be quick and
Thorough. Chickens should be kept on
short rations one whole day before the
operation. 1t may be performed at
any time after the chickens are old
enough SO that one may distinguishes
tween pullets and cockerels. 1t does
not make much difference as to the
season, but l think fall is preferable.
When you have learned to do the work
well, you win find that you can make
considerable by doing 1t for your
neighbor, especially when they see
how much more you get for capons
than they can get for fowls that have
not been caponized. One usually
charges 10 cents per fowl for caponiz-
