PRIVATE DAIRYING.
Where 1t Is Conducted Properly the
Results Are Bound to BE Rea-
sOnabIy Satisfactory.

AS matter of fact the private dairy
man has decided advantage over the
creamery butter-maker, so says Mrs.
Carrie Wilson in paper read before
the Vermont State Dairy association.
He controls she feeding of his cows
and the handling of the milk from the
time it is drawn from the COW until the
butter is made. The patrons of the
creamery always have among them
one or more who are not as careful or
as cleanly in their methods as they
might be, nor does the carrying of
the milk or cream one to three miles
on hot day add to its desirable quail
ties; but the creamery buttermaker
is an expert; he is methodical, exact,
and knows how to offset to some ex-
tent the carelessness of his patrons.
Hence his product is more even in
quality and favor than that of the
average private dairy. If all private
dairies were conducted on the same
lines as the most successful creamer-
les, then the product of the former
would in nearly every instance excel
that of the latter. This is not written
in the way of disparaging the cream
cry. Quite the contrary. 1t has been
the main factor in improving the quail
tiles of the dairy herds, the methods
of the dairyman and the quality of the
butter made in this and other states.
1t would have required long years. per-
haps generation, to bring about the
Improvements in dairying that the
creamery has done in the past ten. We
only wish that every poor buttermak-
er in the state would become patrons of
creamery. 1t would not only help
the quality of the butter market, but it
would be great help to the market
by ridding it of the vast amount of
wretched stuff which now crowds it and
depresses prices. But the private dairy
man, just the same, has advantages
which the creamery cannot, from the
nature of the business, enjoy.

Utility of the System Has Been DEM

Here and Abroad.

The illustration shows section of
steel track road without wooden super
structure of any kind. The steel track
here indicated consists of built sec
ton as shown, in the detail drawing

riyeted on either side to angle irons.
This gives fiat surface eight inches wide
for the wheels of the vehicle, the rails
being laid at a convenient distance
apart to accommodate vehicles of
standard gauge. 1t will be seen that
there is projecting fange which tends
to keep the wheels from leaving the
track, but being not more than half an
inch high this hange does not prevent
turning out easily when necessary.
The rails are well filed underneath

Study the Market Reports

Every orchardist should make him
self familiar with the fruit-crop con-
dihons of each year. In that way
only can he know how valuable is
the fruit hanging on his trees. A
few years ago, when everything point
ed to the probability of high prices
for apples, the farmers in some coun-
ties almost gave away their apples.
Buyers that understood the conditions
boughs up crops on the trees at ten
cents per bushel and made enormous
profits out of the transaction. The
growers thus failed to get their part
of the profits. What shall it profit
a man to spend money and time in
planting an orchard and bringing it
into bearing and then give away it's
product? The grower should get
more out of it than any other per-
son; yet it is too often the middleman
that gets all the Farmers

difficult for the housekeeper to take in
the pail in the morning. The cut shows
d small casing, which may be attached
to the door frame at the right height
10 place the pail within convenient
-each. A small opening in the top of
the casing allows the shank of the angle
iron on the can to be inserted, while
liding catch at the rear of the casing
engages a notch cut in the side of the
shank. The latch extends backward to
the edge of the door, so that when the
latter is closed it prevents the latch be-
ing drawn backward to release the

device also supports the can in posi-

it over with the foot, and there will be
no milk stains to clean up. as is often
the case when the can is placed on the

A costly example of building removal

Pa. John Stevenson, steel and iron

his S65.Oo0 mansion in Newcastle and
had it removed to Sharon. The cost of
moving the distance, % miles, was
about equal to the value of the house.

Cow. i'm Hot. DIV weather.

Cows that are forced to undergo an
pual periods of starvation, during the
annual droughts, must of necessity
gradually deterioratei in milking powers.
If COW owners would but consider how
the poor animals must suffer toiling
through the blazing heat trying to
gather enough food to satisfy their
hunger from the sunburned pastures,
common humanity would move them
to relieve them. But they do not
think, they do not consider, more is
the pity. We are glad to know, how
ever, that the number of such incon-
siderate COW owners is growing less
every year. The practice of providing
green food to supplement the pas
lures during the drought is rapidly
extending among COW owners, and
especially among owners of Jersey
cows.-Jersey Bulletin.
