Interesting Dairy Figures.

The Farmers Tribune or MlnneapO-
lis publishes "A summary of the cream
cries in Minnesota from which the
American cultivator collects an inter
esting series of figures, part of
which are given here as they will be
of interest to the readers of this paper
who are engaged IN dairying, and that
will comprise large part of the
farmers Of the state.
Minnesota today has 700 creamerlcs,
which receive the milk Of 3S0,00
COWS from "a, 900 patrons, and make
therefrom butter product of 81 900,
600 pounds, of which $4,000, 900 are
shipped to Eastern markets and sold as
"cxtras," much of it at one TO- two
cents above the highest market quo
tation.
"These 700 creameries, representing
capital of 50, 800. 900, handle 1850,
600, 900 pounds of milk per annum,
and after expanding 81, 100000 in the
cost of manufacture, make product
from which they realize $40, $50, 600,
of which SIS, 400, 900 net is returned to
the $4,000 patrons in payment of the
butter fat taken from the milk.
This represents the milk of more
than half the COWS in the state, and
it is claimed that the creamery pro-
duct has increased tenfold in 10 years,
while the dairy product has fallen
off one half. OF the 200. 600 farmers
in the state, 81 per cent are patrons
of the creamerics, but in 16 counties
so per cent, and in five counties from
So to IS per cent of all the farmers
send milk to the creamery. Here,
as elsewhere, there is Il large differ
cnce between the average COWS and
the best COWS, as the average is 355C
pounds of milk, or 100 pounds Of but.
ter in the year, worth $2l.S0, but
there arc COWS that do three times
that.
While the average Of 100 pounds OF
butter per COW seems low, the average
for COWS not sending milk to creamer
les is reported at best about l0Qpolnds
per cow, and in 1890 the United cen,
Gus made the average for the state
but so pounds per COW. TO show the
possibility of butter COWS, Professor
Hacker at the Minnesota Experiment
Station has herd of 40 cows that
average about 375 pounds of butter ir
a year: Dairy Commissioner Bowler
and Dairy Inspector Mcconnell, herd:
that average nearly as much. ant
each have COWS that produce over 40(
pounds in the year. To bring the
COWS that supply the creamcrles up tt
an average of 800 pounds year would
add about 5000, 600 to the income OF
the farmers.
In one county in Minnesota there
are Is, 100 cows that average 2l(
pounds of butter each, and in another
ID. 700 COWS that reach an average O.
200 pounds, Thus if two counties
under favorable conditions, can do a!
we'll as those mentioned, there SHOULD
be reasonable chance for improvement
with the remainder of the state. These
facts or figures make an object lessor
that it would be well for farmers t
study. E. II. TowLB.

In principle it was the same when the cook rolls out her dough on the board; but what a cook was this, what roller, and what dough! The wheel and shaft which oper- ated the crusher were like a giants arm delivering short, swift chopping blows at an enemy's ribs.

the narrow precincts of the car aisle.
 It had showered in April fashion early in the morning; but towards noon it became evident that nature was going to lend her aid to our good time, and the soft clouds began to thin and break up into pictur- esque masses, with faint blue sky showing between them, and floods of mellow sun shine breaking through. and dapplng the misty landscape that spread out below us as we ascended! The train wove to and fro up the long slopes, seeming to go back wards and forwards like a weaver's shut tie, or as an eagle mounts in sweeping zig gags, reaching higher at each turn. Ever and anon the movement would cease, as we waited in "a siding to let a regular train pass by, and then we would crowd out on the platforms, and jump down to the ground. returning laden with the white blossoming boughs of the dogwood, and the lovely purple of the violets. It was not long before the car bore the aspect of hot-house; and the temperature did not fail to do its part towards carrying out the illusion; for the sun began now to assert itself with more than April fervor; perhaps it meant to prepare us for the breath 1.-the steel furnaces which awaited us further on. And all the while MT. K and Mir. B. continued to do their miraculous breakdowns and sing their excruciating ditties in the aisle; and friendly purveyors passed up and down between the seats, bearing succulent sandwiches, and break CTS foaming with delectable beverages When l say that 1t was amidst diversions of this kind that the stern-browed sta- tiscians poured their lore Into my ears, and pointed out to me the various indus trial features amidst which we were ca- reering, it may be partly understood why my recollection is confused; and I got girls lovely, face mixed up with ton of coke, or a 1.-the figure with an iron pipe six feet in diameter. Wonder across the valley, five or ten miles away, drifted the smoke of some famous works; but close at hand were bright southern eyes; and the song that MT. B. was singing refused not to be listened to; and the sandwich and the beverages had their own fascination. So many thousand feet of wire per day; so much good-felowship to the car seat; which was which? Industry and pleasure; iron and enchantment; never before was there such combination.

side the brooks, and devour them with up- roar, dancing and song. Since those early days have seen nothing to compare with them until yesterday, when wonderful party set out to explore the wonders of Red mountain. Instead of hay-wagon, we had a couple of private cars and an en- zine to draw them; and when we assembled at Birmingham depot at noon, we must have numbered some sixty souls, with comfortable bodies attached to them. I will not say that there were ladies enough; that would have been impossible; but there were more than we deserved, and their beauty and charm made ample amends for any numerical deficiency. The rear part of the second car was filled with the hampers and barrels which were to sup ply the food and drink for these merry makers; and, that nothing might be lack ing a couple of darky minstrels were en- gagged, one with a violin which he played to admiration, the other with guitar which he kept in a continual bubble of melody As for singers and dancers, we furnished those out of our own resources; and surely no professional talent could have sung better or performed more ad- m,rable fandangoes than did these spon- taneous artists, though the roar of the train mingled with their voices. and their dancing marvsls had to be performed in
