There is no profit in poor butter,
however cheaply it may be pro
duced. If the general farmer takes
up dairying he must well study the
cost of economical production, and
he must have facilities for manu-
featuring goods of the very highest
class.
Only about 6 per cent. of our cattle
are of the quality demanded for ex-
port; the rest must be sold for less
prices. If more were of good quality
more could be sold abroad, which
would lessen the supply for domes-
tic use, and so bring about "A higher
level of prices.
Competition has brought the
wholesale price of milk very near
the lowest possible cost of produc
ton, and without great care the cost
will exceed the price. Cow beef is
never in brisk demand, and unless
the owner can turn off his cows for
what they cost him he is pretty sure
to lose money.
The best American sheep are
quoted higher in London than the
same grade of beef. 1t costs no more
to raise pound of mutton than Of
beef, using the best stock in each
case, and sheep may be kept and fed
to advantage on the smallest of
farms. Surely there is encourage
nent in growing them.
Educate the colts to the halter
when very young, and it will save
time and more or less trouble. Don't
put the halter on the colt's head and
then commence pulling at it ia a
straight line, but always at an angle,
or, what is better, put small rope
around his body just in front of bis
hips in slipnoose form, then pass the
other end between the front legs
and under the noseband, give sud
den jerk on the rope you have tied
around his body, and he will imme.
diately spring forward, which is the
direction you wish him to go. What
ever happens at the forward end
makes him go backward, and at the
rear end forward. This is the ma
tural law governing the colts &C

A Girls Experiences in Boston.

A sparkling serial of Boston life,
under the title of Her Boston Elk
periences," will begin in the next
issue of The Ladies' Home Journal.
1t is written by Margaret Allston, a
vivacious, well-bred girl who spent
a winter in Boston with relatives
living in the Back Bay and was tax zen
everywhere in the most exclusive
social, dramatic, literary and musi-
cal circles. She saw the best and
the worst of Boston life, and she
tells both as she saw them, all in a
bright but audaciously frank manner
until the picture becomes a perfect
biograph of Boston life and people
of to day.

Good Manners Proclaim the Gentle
man.

Good manners are social obliga-
ton, and young man should never
make light Of them nor pass them
over as unworthy Of notice. The
extreme manners of the fop are silly
and unnecessary but the way we'll
bred man deports himself is always
worth young mans closest study.
Good manners mean comfort for
others and the recognition Of little
social rights, which to pass over is
to degenerate. Etiquette books can
not make good manners. Ones de-
pertinent comes from within. Few
men are born without an intuitive
knowledge of what is wrong or
right in department. 1t is simply
experience that develops the quail
ty. To be good generally
means to have consideration for wo-

Poultry Notes.

Keep the moulting hens out Of the
rain and do not let them roost in
trees.
Nice, plump. bodied chickens al
ways find a ready market. Try to
supply that kind.
The interior of poultry houses
should now have a good coat of
whitewash and kerosene.
Now is a good time to gather few
barrels of road dust for the hens
bath this winter.
Cold storage and preserved eggs
are an abomination, and should be
prohibited by legislation.
Repair all leaks and cracks in the
poultry house now, and arrange the
scratching shed for winter.
Don't expect your hens to lay
when you neglect them, and then
complain that there is no profit in
poultry.
Don't let your fowls roost in a
damp house, and then wonder why
they wheeze and have swollen
heads.
One hundred hens will consume
one hundred pounds of grit during
the year, and still some people
foolishly neglect to supply it.
Don't neglect to give fresh, cool
water to the fowls twice daily
Many of the so-called diseases have
their origin in failure to get pure
water.
Always deliver eggs to your Gus
toners when not over twenty-fOul
hours old, as they will not be strict
ly fresh after that time during hot
weather.

riddled with bullets and burned, and
the following guns with their am
munitiOn were captured: A |

The crew of the Urdaneta are
prisoners or have been killed.
Further details are lacking.
The Urdaneta, which was captur-

Do not use any of the meat chop
pers in vogue, which are excellent
for croquettes and many other
things. These coppers grind and
macerate the meat; they do not
chop it. For really satisfactory
sausage you must have a sausage
grinder which chops the meat fine
between two rollers bristling with
knives. Two dollars or less will
buy this desirable article, which
will last lifetime.
OF ham and shoulder trimmings
take one part, of tenderloin one
part, of fat from the back one part,
chop fine, and season with five even
teaspoonfuIls of salt, three teaspoon
fuls Of powdered sage and one table
spoonful of pepper for each five
pounds of meat. The seasoning
may, of course, be varied to suit the
taste. If the "trinmings' have
some fat be careful to count it
in IN preserving the proper
ton of two thirds lean and one
third fat. The meat of young pigs,
say two-thirds grown, is tenderer
and more delicate in flavor than
that of older animals. To keep
sausage meat, pack in small crooks
or jars, cover with melted lard half
an inch thick, and keep in cold
place. So treated it will keep per-
fectly two months or longer.-Wo-

PnnctnAlitY.

Being just in time is a great deal bet
ter than being little behind time.
And being just in time is even better
than being little ahead of time. 1t is
sometimes said of man, as if it were
to his credit, that he always aims to be
ten minutes or five minutes ahead of
time in an appointment. But why
should man waste ten minutes, or
five, on every appointment he makes?
With business man who has ten or
twenty appointments day, five or ten
minutes lost or frittered away at every
appointment is quite an item i'm life. 4
good man ought to value time too
highly To waste it in any such way as
that 10 Is true that he may be delayed
by an accident on his way, and that, If
he always allows time for such an
emergency, he is less likely to fail of
always being on time. But, on the
other hand, IL a man starts too early,
he may meet with an accident which
he would have avoided by waiting a
few minutes. The best way i'm this
busy world j. to aim at being always on
time. There is no improvement on
that.-Sel.

IothtOeS As u u OOu Tor IOultry.
On several occasions we have seen
this subject very freely discussed in
the correspondence columns of one
or o. her OF the poultry journals, some
people contending that the analysis
of the potato shows it to be a very
Unfit food for use, while others main
tain that practical experience proves
it to be a most useful one. We favor
the latter.
Judiciou-ly given and blended
with little common sense, we con-
slider the potato one of the best addi-
tions to our fowls bill of fare. Only
the day before writing these notes a
case came under our notice where
two neighbors both kept fowls and
both had the same number, variety
and accommodations. From "a hens
one was getting 20 eggs "a day, the
other 10. The former attributed the
better laying of his birds to the use
of boilerful of warm potatoes mixed
with his morning meal. 1t has al
ways been our custom to use pota-
toes i'm some form or another, and we
look upon them rs both good and
cheap.
One plan we often adopt in the
winter time is to instruct the poultry
lad to place a boilerful on the kitch-
en- range every evening after tea
these cook during the evening, aud
by the time the fire goes down are
done, and the little heat left and
their own steam keeps them warm,
and thus they are ready for mixing
with the meal in the morning earlier
than they would be ii not prepared
over night. At other times, when
not feeding potatoes as above. we
have a bOilerful served round whole

The Production and Care of cider.

To make good cider, the first re-
quisite is that the apples shall be
sound. To get the best results APP
plies should be ripe, but not over
ripe or mealy. The juice of ripe
apple contains more sugar than the
juice of partly ripe apple. The
value of apples for cider, and cider
vinegar depends on the amount of
sugar i'm the apple, and the amount
of this depends upon the season and
variety. With very few exceptions,
late apples are richer in sugar than
early varieties, and the indications
are to make your cider for drinking
and even for vinegar, OF late apples.
