CREAMERY TROUBLES.
One of the Biggest Obstacles En-
cOuntered Is Dishonesty Among
Those Supplying MIX.

One of the hard things that the man
ager of a creamery or cheese factory
has to contend with is dishonesty
among those that supply milk. Where
milk is purchased by the hundred
pounds this condition is particularly
acute, and it even exists in consider
able measure where the milk is pur-
chased by the test. One cheesemaker
tells of the trouble he has with his
patrons that bring poor milk. He says
that one man continually brought milk
so near the souring point that it was
sometimes impossible to use it, and
once or twice it was returned. But the
man would always come back smiling
the next day and assert that the mana
ger was wrong in sending back the
milk-that it kept perfectly for long
time afterward. One day the milk
brought was so near sour that the man
ager thought it necessary to refuse it.
He thought, however, that he would be
sure that this milk soured. SO he alyly
slipped into the cans enough rennet to
make the milk thick in a short time.
The following morning the farmer was
back with a new lot of milk, but de-
clared that the milk of the preceding
day kept over night, and that some of
it was used for making custard the
next day. Of course, it was not policy
for the manager to give away the fact
that he knew the man was lying, or
that he had put rennet in the milk It
illustrates one of the biggest obstacles
in the way of getting clean milk

,v.,e rncrcnse of Nationulities,

According to German stahsIelan,
Rrssia is the nation which increases
the fastest-her population will double
in about forty-five years. Germany
meets sixty-five years, Austra-Hungary
81, enty. England eighty, Italy 11o, but
Frsnce can only do it in 500 years,
provided the present annual increase
does not diminish. which Unfortu! ate
IN seems TO be the case. The loss OF
A;saCe-Lorraine, with population OF
/ 1.35O. 900 souls is nothing in view OF the
insignificant annual increase OF
Frances population. During the last
Ave ears the population of Germany
has increased 100000, while France g
increase has been scarcely 175,OOO-a
considerable part of whom are more

t-sty PecuIiarities.

WHY should Hartford be the center
OF insurance in this country, instead of
New York? Why should Boston be the
center of the copper industry? There
is no copper within 1000 miles of the
Hub. Why should a majority of our
shoes be made at Lynn? We can un-
tle-r:.tand why Pittsburgh should be
the center of the iron industry, sitting
as she does in the heart of the ore and
eoal region, but why should she make
nearly all of our glass when there is
better sand elsewhere? Why is Provi-
deEee the great jeHvelry-making city ?

The Independent Farmer.

Some of the western farmers who
make a speciality of one crop, wheth-
er it is grain, beef, cattle or hogs. or
extensive orchards, are inclined to
sneer at the small farms and garden
patches of the eastern states, and
often the eastern farmer envies the
man who can sell thousands of dol
lars worth at one time. but it is the
small farmer with few acres and
diversified farming who is really the
Independent farmer. He grows veg
etables and fruits for his own use,
has milk and butter in plenty. fattens
his beef and pork, and perhaps NUT
ton, and abundance OF poultry and
eggs, and if every railroad in the coun-
try is blockaded he is in no danger OF
arvation.-American Cultivator-

A DAZED WESTERNER.
Eesterner Loses His Breath I'm
New York just Before the
Sl~inninE Process Begun.

"Nhat kind of a town is this you arr
gctting?" breathlessly asked bewll-
dereo gentleman from the west as he
al1ived ten minutes late at an impor-
tant appointment, looking as if he had
undergone a severe shock of some kind.
why, has anything struck you as
being out of the ordinary" responded
his New York friend who was not a lit
tic pleased to find that that there was
something in the east that could dis
t,Irb the equanimity of a man from
the west.
"Huh!" said the westerner. Il

Fighting the Cabbage Worm

This spring and summer the cabbage
worm will no doubt cause much annoy
ance. The white butterfly, the parent of
the cabbage worm, is usually early in
putting in an appearance if the plants
are we'll advanced. There are many ex-
cellent remedies, but the majority are
open to objections. Pure paris green is
effectual. but the sale of the cabbages
will be injured if it is known that the
poison is used. 1t has been used ex-
tensively, but cases have occurred in
which i'll effects have resulted to con-
sUmers. Kerosene leaves disagree

worms. One pound of pyrethrum

special devices at highway and railroad
crossings. 1t is claimed by its orig
inat0r and owned, Mr.. c. Alley, to be
the only one of its kind in existence.
The line is II miles in length, with five
stations, two at Anderson, two in Pen
dleton and one at Ingalls,. We are in
formed that additional subscribers
could be served to advantage, but that
the terms of the contract with the
present parties prohibit it. The un-
questioned success of this novel tele-
phone line is stated to be due largely
to the perfect insulation. The builder
invariably uses the top strand of the
fence wire, which is treated to a gen
erous coating of rubber paint. AT
the fence sections common galvanized
wire is used to continue the circuit to
a connection with the next fence, the
same arrangement being carried out at
the railroad crossings. In order to
carry across the road or highway, the
circuit is either placed beneath an in
verted trough, covered by the mate
rial of the road, or, as shown in our ae-
companying illustration, it is carried
overhead by means of two poles, one
on each side of the crossing. In this
illustration Mr.. Alley himself is seen
in the act of ''telephoning to town."
u feat which can be performed at any
desired point along the line by SIM
ply attaching, as shown, a portable
transmitter and receiver.
The inventor is very much pleased
with the results of his simple and eco
noniical system. which, undoubtedly.
has many features to recommend it
self to rural communities. The cost
is extremely low, as there is no ex-
pense for copper wires, and poles are
only needed at the crossings. Where the
number of patrons is not too large. the
service is said to be all that could
be desired. Our correspondent states
that he has used the fence line to con-
verse with friend some eight miles
distant. and this at time when the
fence-posts were still saturated with
the morning dew, condition under
which the line is supposed to work to
the least satisfaction.
Tk" line has been such a practical
success that the farmers of the neigh
borhood are organizing companies for
the purpose Of placing themselves in
telephone communication throughout
the whole district. As evidence of the
praCticability of the barb-uire tele-
phone our correspondent quotes the
case of the Wagner Glass company,
who. with Offices at Anderson, are able
to communicate daily with their plant
at ingalls,, 13 miles distant. The cost
in this case is only S100 per year, and
there is the added advantage that hav-
ing only two other subscribers on that
wire, the line is almost always avail
able.-Scientific American
