with links to be grasped in the hand
for use. The straps normally do not in
terfere with the movement of the head,
but when the animal attempts to run
the links are grasped in the hands and
the straps pulled taut, the force exerted
being much greater than is possible
with the reins, because Of the increas
ed leverage when pulling in direct
line with the drivers feet, enabling
him to draw the animals head down
and dislodge the bit.

For Controlling Horses.


The control of vicious and runaway
horses is a matter that has often been
the study of the inventor, as numerous
devices already ON the market attest;
but there is always room for improve
ment, and the illustra ton shows one of
the newest forms. 1t is the inventor
intention to have the appliance used
especially for those animals which
are in the habit Of taking the bit be
tween their teeth, which, as is well
known, makes it almost impossible to
control them with the ordinary reins.
The new apparatus consists of two
straps threaded through guiding de-
vices attached to the thills of the vehi-
Gle, the forward ends of the straps
connecting with the bit in the animals
mouth and the rear ends passing

Honesty ON the Farm.

AS a rule the farmer is honest. Some
are SO eager to get rich that they are
not very honest with themselves, and
it Is hardly to be expected they will be
with anybody else. In discussing this
topic, a writer in the Homestead right
" concludes that farmer can be the
most dishonest man in the world, if he
desires to be. All the good Of every
thing can be put in the top of the heap
If he is inclined, and there is room in
SO many places to be dishonest, but as
q class they are not dishonest. The
best man In every special line likes to
make his packages good in quantity
and appearance. He will and should
put few Of the best il the top of the

Cook Stove Evaporator.

An evaporation is a luxury few can
afford unless they intend going into the
fruit business to quite an extent. The
Illustration, which is from the Orange
Judd Farmer, shows cheap and handy
evaporator within the reach Of all. The
frames are made of any size desired,
3x4 feet being handy dimensions il the
stove is large enough to accommodate
1t. Over the frames, which should be
made of 21a or inch strips Of board,
screen wire netting is firmly tackled
For the legs to be fastened on the bot
tom frame, take four pieces of strap
iron from a foot and half, to two feet
long. Through one end of each iron
drill two or three holes for screws.

Dairy Figures.


There are 100000 milk cows in the
United States, distributed over $780,
600 farms of three or more acres, and
100000 more owned in towns and
cities and on small country places,
making about 100000 in all. The
product of 100000 of these cows is
consumed as milk and cream, either
fresh or condensed. that of 100000
is made into butter and that Of 1000.
600 into cheese. The average yearly
consumption of dairying products per
person is twenty-five gallons of milk,
twenty pounds Of butter and three
pounds of cheese.
There are about 1000 creameries
and cheese factories in the United
States. Nearly all of the cheese is
made in factories. Only about one
fourth Of the butter is factory or cream,
cry made, the other three fourths be.
ing farm and home produced. The an
nual consumption as milk and cream
is /, 10000 gallons. The production OF
butter is 1900, Oo0, 900 pounds and OF
cheese 3OO,OO0,OOO pounds.

Fasten these to the bottom side of the,
frame with inch screws and then with
a wrench or some other tool bend the
legs in such way as to leave a space
of from. foot to eighteen inches be-
tween the frame and surface of the
stove. On the upper side and near the
corners of the frame, drive in small
nails so that they penetrate the wood
deep enough to leave an inch in length
sticking up. Over these slip four thread
spools. BY driving corresponding nails
into the bottom side of the second
frame to slip down into the spools, it
is held in place. The third frame is
fastened in the same way and as many
more as desired can be added.

Chinch Ru9s.

OHc Oh TIE uOSC OBSTRUCTIVE pests the
farmers of this country have to con-
tend with is the chinch bug. says the
Iowa Homestead. 1t of course original
ly subsisted on wild plants, but it
learned very early to prefer cultivated
ones. The new food supply being al
ways at hand when the bugs lay their
eggs and the young are growing natu-
rally causes their numbers to increase,
| and the loose soil about the roots of cul-
| tivated plants furnished conditions
more favorable to the work of the
young than could be found in the I'M
cultivated ground. These facts largely
increased the facility with which the
chinch bug was propagated and it I'M
fortunately has few natural enemies.
It's bedbug flavor makes it no very de
sirable morsei to insectivOrOus birds,
and the fungous diseases to which it is
subject require a wet season for their
propagation in the field, and in wet
season the chinch bug is not very dam
! gerous. In normal seasons, therefore,
all the natural conditions are quite IA
yorable to the chinch bug in cultivated
fields, and the farmer must mainly rely
upon his own efforts for protection.
One of the best remedies in the
world for the chiDch bug is to clean
up. If infested lands be burned off
and all the rubbish gathered and
burned in early spring much will have
been accomplished. All the rubbish ac-
cumulating along the fences and head
lands should be cleaned; uncultivated
prairie lands adjoining fields should be
burned off early; corn stalks should be
broken down and burned in the spring
following chinch bug year, as it will
destroy millions of the insects that
have hibernated between the leaves
and the stalks. Wherever, by reason
of the previous presence of the chinch
bug, another visitation is probable, no
pains should be spared to thoroughly
clean up and destroy all the stubble,
corn stalks, dead grass. fence row rub
bish and the like possible, and it
should be destroyed by fire. 1t is
work. Of course, but it is the work that
will pay where there is any reason to
anticipate the chinch bug visitation.
Cost of Milk.
1t is important to know the cost Of
production, and if weighing milk will
induce us to compute the cost let those
of us who do not know begin weighing
at once, says s. w. Marble in Practical
Dairyman. Mr.. Carnegie, the great
steel manufacturer, it is said, paiG $4O,-
900 a year to keep records of the cost
of production of his steel. 1t is stated
that every wheelbarrow of material
that went into the furnaces was weigh
ed and recorded. 1t was the special
work of a bookkeeper to keep those
records, and every time they turned cut
an order for steel, whether for bridge
or for ship, or whatever it was, 1t
was figured out down to the very last
detail. He knew the cost Of every
piece of steel that was turned out
Now, if he could do it at an expense
of $4,000 on his business, the farmer,
with twenty cows, says Prof. Henry,
could afford to spend five days work
a year on his business, because the per-
centage of difference would be great
deal less on the five-day investment,
which is all that is needed, than to Mr..
Carnegie on his $4,000.
