uo,,anders have long been known as
..ro,uI cheese makers. and Edan
cheese is a Holland speciality. Inc
northern part of the little country 10
tho seat Of the Edam cheese industry
and great cleanliness and care Is eA-
oroised IN the making. The cheese Is
made from fresh cows milk. AS soon
&c curdled by the rennet, the whey Is
drawn off and the curd kneaded ana
pressed into the ball-llke molds until
quite dry. The ball is then wrapped
in a linen cloth and kept for ten days
or two weeks until quite solid, when
tbe cloth is removed and the cheese
mt into salt lye. 1t is next put into a
vessel and washed with whey ana
scraped to remove the white crust oil
salt It is next carried into cool
room and laid on shelves, where II
Is turned regularly. Ripening Bdam
cheese takes from two to three months
the round balls assuming their me
vollow or reddish color. Those cheeses
intended for export to this country are
often more highly colored by vegetaple
dyes.
Among some OF the commission men
in Chicago it is believed that the poul-
try crop of this year is about the
same as that OF the past year. Thsre
10 believed to be considerable increase
of turkeys, while chickens remain
about the same Ducks and geese are
less in numbers The cold and wet
spring is given as the general cause
of a not more abundant supply. The
supply of turkeys is put at possibly
25 per cent more than last year. Inc
cause for this is doubtless the goou
prices that have been realized Tor q
few years past for good turkeys. There
has been no kind of poultry that has
brought the farmer more satisfactory
returns. But this condition in former
years was brought about by a short
age. Perhaps we may expect to see
turkeys moderate in price this season
when they really begin to come In.
Chickens are not large crop for the
same reason, that is, the moderate
prices that have prevailed for some
time. The state of the market Of past
years was the incentive for the change
in kind of fowls being prepared for
market The same is true of the
shortage in ducks and geese In fact
we may expect to see these changes
go on from year to year. The wise
course among poultrymen would seem
to be to change less and catch the high
market oftener.

We are hearing many complaints oil
the loss of sheep by injuries from that
very injurious grass known as porcu-
pine grass also called Stipa Spartee by
botanists, says American Sheep Breed
er. 1t is found from Illinois and In
diana, and northwest into the Cana
dian territories. 1t is most noted for
its feathery head made up of long
awns which are twisted as cork
screw, and covered with short plumy
fibers, making it much like feather.
The sheep, feeding among this grass
when the heads are about ripe, take
up in their fleece many OF these awns,
which are easily loosened from the
head. These awns entangled in the
wool untwist in the wet or damp
weather, or even in a dewy night, but
in the warm dry days they twist again;
in this manner they force the sharp
every exposure to alternate dampness
and dryness forces the barbed awns
deeper and deeper into the flesh, so
that in time the sheep are absolutely
transfxed by these sharp screws like
needles. The result is that the sheep
become affected in the same way as
by serious disorders of the stomach
and bowels, but of course no treatment
suggested by this belief has any effect
in relieving them. There have been
so many instances of this kind the past
month, and so many every year later
in the season, that attention is called
to this injurious grass so that all con-
cerned may take suitable precautions.
1t is difficult to suggest any practical
means to get rid of this grass, as it is
perennial, and blowing and cultivating
of the land only will eradicate it.
Doubtless the most satisfactory means
will be to watch the sheep and gather
from the fleece all the awns which
have been taken up by the wool, OIL
keep the flocks from pastures on which
this grass grows.

Is hard 20 change the turkeys diet,
one must gradually go from one feed
TO another with them. hence this taper
ing off. They OF course had clean
water at all times, milk occasionally,
crushed charcoal and grit but no medi-
cine unless a portion of unleachsd
wood ashes added to their dr'uK could
be called medicine. This was put In
their drink whenever we noticed one a
little OFF, and was left in day or
two. Since we've begun feeding whole
corn they have had all they would pick
up twice per day, before that l should
have said, they were never fed quite
all they would eat the idea being to
never allow them to lose their appetite
which they will do when small on any
food we ever tried except milk curds,
and OF this we never had enough.
We have gobblers now that weigh
sixteen pounds and less than six
months old One that we selected as
test case to tell what they were do
pound each week for the last four
weeks, and as far as one can Judge, he
has not gained faster than the others.
The last week or ten days before mar
keting we intend TO feed warm corn
and meal mash for their breakfast, at
least. We think they will increase
faster in weight IL thus fed, the meal
will be mixed crumbly, not soft and
mushy. One can feed all the turkeys
will pick up, indeed they will go of
and leave feed, and in ten minutes 20
among them and scatter more corn
and they will eat as though they had
had nothing for quite while, for
little bit, but soon they will leave. II
one had nothing to do but walk among
them and scatter corn there Is no
guessing at what they would gain in
a few weeks.
We have never tried combining the
turks to fatten them, but do not think
1t would work II we ever can, we
want to be able to have a Ave or ten
acre plat, preferably meadow, exclu-
Eively to fsttsn our turkeys, and in
this plat we would have corn scattered
thinly over the ground all the time.
This might not prove out well but we
would like to give 1t trial. Turkeys
are lots OF bother, they are trial from
the time the hens begin to lay until
the young are marketed, but they bring
In more money in comparison with the
Feed consumed than any thing in the
poultry line, and turkey rsisers are al
