Two stories are attributed in The
Railway Magazine to the witty bishop
of Oxford. He was once talking to
some boys in a school and said to them:
"Now. my boys. dare say you think
it's very fine thing to be bishop.
But | assure you I'm very busy man.

is?" THE Bible. sir; the Bible" shout
ed the boys all together. NO." replied
the bishop. with merry twinkle in his
eye. It's called Bradshaw!
The other story is still better. On
one occasion when he alighted from
the train at Wheatley, the station for
Cuddesden palace. an officious porter
rushed up to him and asked. ANY arti-
Giles in the van, my lord?" Articles"
said the bishop grimly. Eyes. 80 arti-
cles." OFF hurried the porter and wor-
ried the guard almost out of his senses
by the way he searched the van and
detained the train. Presently he came
back to the bishop with crestfallen
expression of countenance. "There are
only seven, my lord" "Only seven?

think I"

Feminine Dairy Wisdom.

Dorothy Tucker in The Farm Jour
nal says: The calves will do much bet
ter kept in the stable with the win
dows shaded and fed a little milk and
meal and hay than to run in the pas
ture If you do not wish to give them
hay, give them grass cut in the fence
corners and around the premises. They
will make double the growth treated
in this way.
Their skins are thin and they feel
the heat of the sun, and it takes half
the food to support the flies. There is
nothing that will stunt calves more
than hot sun and flies.
The stables should be kept clean and
dry. and this is very easily done by
cleaning every day. Just few min
utes regularly spent in cleaning the
stable will never be noticed and it will
never be burden. 1t is the, vilest
practice to allow cows to stand in an
accumulation of manure while being
MIXED. Too many farmers do this,
even now. They are not moving with
the procession and will soon fall be-
hind and be out of the race for sue
cess if they do not brace up.
Rip an old bran sack open length
wise and throw it over the cows when
you are milking. They will stand
twice as still as when not so covered.
The relief to the cow will have it's re-
feX> upon the man who is milking her
Try to have your stable rather dark
in fly time. The cows will not be trou-
bled nearly so badly by the flies as
they otherwise would.
From now on the water supply in the
pastures will need careful watching.
Sometimes the springs will get stopped
up or fail from other causes quite sud
. denly. Milk is largely water. The
cow has no way of supplying it We
must do it for her. If we do not, we
must suffer the consequences.

A startling incident Is narrated by
John Oliver of Philadelphia, as follows:
II was in an awful condition. My skin
was almost yellow, eyes sunken, tongue
coated, pain continually in back and
side, no appetite, growing weaker day
by day. Three physicians had given me
up. Then I was advised to use Electric
Bitters; to my great JOY, the first bottle
made decided improvement. l contin-
ued their use for three weeks and am a
we'll man. I know they robbed the grave
of another victim No one should fail

why strippings Are Rich In Cream

Why Strippings Are Rich In Cream.
Many explanations have been given
of the reason why the "Strippings," or
that portion of the milk which is last
drawn from the udder, is the richest in
butter fat, says The Farmers Advo-
cate. One of the most generally &C.
cepted explanations is that the butter
fat, being Of such low specific gravity
as compared with the watery portion
Of the milk in which 1t floats, has ten
dency to rise to the upper portions OF
the udder, just as it does when the
milk is set for cream raising. When
the cream so rises, it naturally follows
that it will be the last to come away in
the operation of milking.
That there is very marked differ
ence in the quality of milk first drawn
from the cow, as compared with that
which comes away toward the finish.
dairy expert This gentleman found
that while the average per cent Of but
ter fat in the first half pint Of milk
drawn from a cow worked out to
only 1872 per cent the butter fat in the
strippings, or the last half pint,
amounted to over 9 per cent. There
was hardly any difference in the per-
centage of the other solids present in
the last drawn as compared with the
first drawn milk.

CREAM TESTING.
Paying Creamery Patrons on the
Basis of Weighed Samples


Basis of Weighed Samples.
The Babcock test is coming into such
general use in the cream gathering
creameries of New England that its ac-
curacy for che purpose of testing cream
is receiving not a little consideration.
says c. S. Phelps In The Rural New
Yorker. When this method was rec
commended as basis for paying for
cream, the Cooley system was in al
most universal use by dairymen asso-
ciated with the creameries. The econ
Omy Of the cream separator, however,
has become apparent to many farmers
within the last few years, and separa-
tors have been quite generally intro
duced among creamery patrons. This
had been done with the belief that less
loss would result than in the system Of
deep setting. This, without doubt, is
true as far as completeness of cream
separation is concerned, but whether
the creamery patron who uses a sepa-
rator and is paid on the basis of the
Babcock test is Justly paid Is very
doubtful
When the Babcock test was recon-
mended for use in the cream gathering
creameries, very little of the cream
contained over % per cent of butter
fat, and under these conditions the test
based on a measured sample was rea-
sonably accurate If, however, the per
cent Of fat in the cream much exceeds
% per cent, there is a, considerable er-
ror, which is likely to be magnified as
the density of the cream increases.
The cream from most separators will
contain from 25 to 40 per cent of butter
fat. The BabcOck test, when made by
the use of a measured sample, is based
on the suppOsitiOn that sample of
cream Of IS cubic centimeters will
weigh IS grams Now, it is a we'll
known fact that the weight of milk
and cream varies according to the per
cent Of fat which it contains; the high
err the percentage of fat the less a CIV
en- quantity will weigh. From this it
can be seen that a given measure Of
cream containing 35 per cent of fat
will weigh considerably less than one
containing 70 per cent or raj. But the
difference in the weights Of two sam
pies of cream of a given measure is
not the only source Of error which
may come into the test. Cream usual
~ contains much air when it comes
from the separator, and this interferes
with the taking of an accurate sample
In addition the glass pipette, or meas
ure, used in drawing the final sample
of cream. is supposed to be so con-
structed as to deliver is centimeters.
The denser the cream the more it will
adhere to the inside of the glass meas
ure. and while a certain pipette might
deliver Is grams Of cream which
contains 20 per cent Of butter fat it
would not deliver as much when the
cream contained 40 per cent of fat.

THE SPRING BALANCE IN THE DAIRY.

business it to be conducted in a bust
ness way. BY this method the cows
which are being kept at loss can be
determined and should be weeded
out Where the spring balance is used
in connection with the Babcock fat
testing machine it can be known with
certainty what each COW in the herd Is
doing. 1t will be some time before the
Babcock machine will be in general
farm use, but every farmer who keeps
a COW should be provided with the
spring balance.

milk contained in the pail. The value
of the scales can only be known to one
who has made use of them. The milk

leighton and the Poor Student.

Of Leighton's hearty, eager helpful
ness many instances might be given.
Here is one. After a certain prize day
at the academy a student was passing
through the first room on his way to
the entrance. He looked the picture Of
detection and disappointed wretched-
ness-poorly and shabbily dressed and
Sinking away as if he wished to pass
out of the place unnOticed. Millais and
Leighton, walking arm in arm, came
along, pictures Of prosperity.
Leighton caught sight Of the poor,
downcast student. Leaving Millais, he
darted across the vestibule to him and,
taking the students arm, drew him
back into the first room and made him
sit down on the ottoman beside him.
Putting his arm on the top of the otto
man and resting his head on his hand,
Leighton began to talk as he alone
could talk. pouring forth volumes Of
earnest, rapid utterances, as if every
thing in the world depended on his
words conveying what he wanted them
to convey. He went on and on. The
shabby figure gradually seemed to pull
itself together, and at last when they
both rose he seemed to have become
another creature. Leighton shook
hands with him, and the youth went
on his way rejoicing.
It is certain that if other help than
advice were needed it was given. But
it was the extraordinary zest and vital
ity which Leighton put into his help
which made it unlike any other. He
fought every ones cause as others
fight their own.-London Telegraph
