There is a way to keep moderately coo1
in the hottest cars. and this IS the way
to go about it:
See to it before you leave home that
YOU are dressed with entire comfort.
Go leisurely TO the station and walk
quietly to the without fuss hurry
or excitement
Take a soft silk or linen handkerch ef
put about your neck in loose folds. then
take q light book paper with which to
pretend to pass the time. and there rest
in absolute peace until your destination
Is reached
Don't get up and drink iced water every
half-hour.
Don't Midget about every station and
wonder why yours is never coming
Don't rasp your voice and excite your
blood by useless conversation
These are the trifles that make travel
ing such q nuisance; their opposites wi L
bring sense of comfort that is more re-
freshfng than cool wave
The longest ride must have an end some
time. and the best traveller is always the
one who adapts herself to circumstances
and takes dust. delays, and even hot
boxes as matter of course. and the nee
essary accornpan irnents to transportation,

OUTLOOK FOR cattl. Prices.

For many years to come the prices
OF cattle must be good. especially for
the better class of meat. The recent
depression had the effect OF checking
the breeding of cattle of all kinds and
the number of cattle in the country fell
steadily for a number of years. The
result Of that curtailrnent of the cat
tie supply is that the base on which to
produce the vast numbers now annu-
ally required is restricted. There ia
another factor that enters very large
ly into the solution of the problem and
that Is that the people are demanding
more than ever a finer quality OF beef
the difference between the poorest and
best meats in the markets was so
great as 1t Is today. So It comes about
that in the city of Chicago one can get
porterhouse steak at % cents a pound
or at IL cents a pound. and at all
prices between the two The quality
of the steaks varies. of course. accord
ing to the prices. except when poor
meat is dishonesty palmed off on the
customer for high-quality meat The
difference in prices indicates that the
high-qua1ity meats are in great de
mand- These hfgh-Qua1ity meats come
from pure-bred and grade stock. The
increasing prices for the high-qua1ity
meats indicate that the money in the
future for cattle raisers is in weil-bred
animals. Most assuredly that man that
is doing his best to grade up his herd
of cattle is paving the way for good
money returns In the future. The
experience of the past few years. when
men rushed out OF the business OF
breeding good cattle because there was
a temporary fail in the values, should
teach men today that the course OF
wisdom lies in steadily improving the
quality of their cattle

to her owner. When the grasshop-
perS come down in legfons On the
green fields or on the wheat stubble
we are glad enough to have the hens
forage for them. But for all OF that
there are circumstances in which the
farmer needs hens thai viii be salts
fed to take all their feed from his
bounty.
We would be pleased to hear from
our readers as to their experiences
with fowls during the past spring and
summer There are many points upon
which We would like reports. among
them the results of yarding fowls
Also we doubt not that many OF our
readers have grown rape for pastur-
ing their fowls AS il has been
good growing season We should have
many favorable reports as to the value
of rape as poultry pasture
One writer says that If we can force
the hens to lay each ten more eggs in
a year it means good deal OF profit,
and this is true for the reason that
the hen has first to lay enough eggs
to pay for her feed and care, before
anything can be counted for profit
It is on account OF this that the
scientific raisers of poultry and the
men that make living out of 1t are
constantly trying new methods with
the hope OF increasing the egg yield
One pou1tryman that gets q good
many eggs in the fall OF the year feeds
somewhat after the following manner
He boils q soup bone till the substance
OF 1t is in the water. and the water is
| used to scald bran. The pail of
scaIded bran is covered over till the
steam and heat in the water have thor
| ough1y cooked the mass. After 1t has
| cooled down to 100 degrees SO it is
| fed at once. This feed is given once a
day. at least through the moultins
| season.
The time OF the year is approaching
when the incubators will be brought
| into use. and the users of such inven-
| lions should be reminded OF the fact
| that getting the chicks out OF the
shells is not the only thing by any
| means. The breeders must be care
fully handled to temperature. es-
| pecially during the first days after the
chicks come out of the incubators Al
the time the chickens are placed in the
hrooder it should be at a temperature
of so to 80 degrees, but not above the
last mentioned point. Just here is
where the necessity for a reliable Their
mOmeter comes in. for some Their
mOmeters are so unreliable that they
will not register within five degrees O
the correct temperature. AS will b.
seen, five degrees too high or too low
may make a good deal OF difference
with the brooder chicks. A Their
mometer need not be expensive to b,

are correct The chicks viii themselve

The Dairy Commissioner of Massa-
chusettS says: The consumption Of
cream is increasing very rapidly in
Massachusetts. In all of the large
ticle in all grocery and provision
stores, while large amounts are. de-
iivered by the milk peddier- Most OF
this cream comes from Maine. and
several Maine creameries have built
up an enormous business. Professor
Cooley estimates that only about one
twentieth of the cream sold IN Massa-
chusetts IS produced in the state. 1t
would seem as though the production
of market cream holds out great pos
sibilties to Massachusetts, creaneries.
especially in view of the fact that the
demand for cream is the largest fn
the summer. when the production OF
butter Is largest. the surplus most
burdensome and the price the lowest
butter fat is worth from to cents
a pound more in market cream than
in butter. The production OF cream
at creameries on the factory plan
promotes uniformity in quality aud
enhances popular confidence in it
The farmer that is engaged IN max
ing butter. and who desires to make
the best, should ponder on the rea-
sons that have tended to make cream
cry butter a leader on the market It
must not be forgotten that one Of the
reasons Is that the butter made IN the
creamery is put in a room by itself
and kept isolated from all objection
able odors till it is sent to market
This is one thing that should reeeivs
the particular attention OF the farmer
We have seen milk set to cream and
butter churned in cellars where all
kinds of vegetables were kept
The Globe-republican., 1900-10-25

In the course of an address made
at the Toronto fair recently the Hon
Mr.. Fisher, the Dominion Minister of
agriculture, said that the leading fea-
ture of the present agricultural stu
alton in the province was the splendid
revival in live stock, as evidenced by
the exhibits at the fair. He consfd-
cred this a most fortunate thing, for
it meant not only filled pockets for
the present generation but rich lands
for their successors. In his opinion
just so long as the interest in stock
breeding was maintained prosperity
would attend the breeders. There
We're times when they regretted that
such tempting offers were made for
Canadian animals by American breed
ers, but they had men in Canada who
were always willing to go to the old
country and secure the best animals
to replenish the Canadian herds ano
docks. They need have no fear for
the future of the farmer.
The principles that govern the max
Ing of good butter are the same the
world over, though some of the ways
of carrying out the principles may
differ The Dairy Commissioner of
New Zealand says that he finds that
it is not necessary to adopt in New
Zealand any methods different from
those practiced in Canada Clean1i-
ness in both places is requisite for
the making of butter of the best kind
and not even pasteurization can offset
the presence of dirt; for while the
dirt is being eliminated there is be-
ing eliminated with IT the delicate
aroma that makes high priced butter
in demand
See that the cream is thoroughly
stirred before putting 1t into the
churn. The flavor and appearance of
the cream is indicative of its proper
ripeness- One skilled butter maker
says that while the alkaline tablets
are valuable indicating the degree
of ripeness of the cream, It il his ex-
perience that no mechanical test can
ever take the place of the judgment
of the experienced butter maker.
whose taste and eye must be the prin-
cipa1 tests as to the condition at
which the cream should be churned-
We would like to hear from turkey
raisers as to their practice of heavy
feeding for the market Should tur-
keys be fed all the fattening foods they
can use from this time to the day OF
marketing2 Should turkeys that are
to be marketed at Christmas time be
fed as heavily now as those that are te
be marketed on Thanksgiving day?
