Preservatiyes and COIOring in Milk.

The representatives of the Central
Chamber of Agriculture made a very
good appearance before Sir Herbert
Maxwell and his committee on the use
Of preservatives and coloring matters
in food Both were ready and decisive
in their evidence, and manifested
grasp on the subject that cannot have
failed to favorably impress the commit
tee. Mr.. Darlington Smith would per-
NIT the coloring of cheese as conces-
sion to local demands, but as regards
milk and butter he sees no call what
ever for the aid of either personalities
or coloring matters. He sends his milk
from Staffordshire to London without
experiencing any need for preserva-
tives, and surely if the milk will keep
fresh during transit on that length of
journey there is not likely to be gen.
uine hardship caused by rendering ille-
gal the use of substances of doubtful
safety to the health of the consumer.
Most centres of consumption, not ex-
cepting the metropolis itself, can de-
rive their supplies of fresh milk. from
within radius entailing no greater
length of journey by rail than sepa-
rates Mr.. Smith from the London mar
ket, and consequently his personal ex-
periences should be convincing and
sufficient answer to the plea that pre-
servatives are Indispensable. If chem
ical substances are added to milk pro-
duced within a shorter distance of the
market to which it is consigned, the
suspicion must at once arise that they
are employed not as being essential for
the keeping of pure fresh milk handled
in proper manner, but in order to
cover some defect in the process OF
manipulation between the time it is
drawn from the COW and the time il
reaches the consumer. In reference tC
the coloring of butter, Mr.. Smith ant
Professor Long were equally emphatic
in advocating the prohibition of the
practice as being quite unnecessary il

AGRICULTURAL.
Increasing Fertility on n Farm.

E. Horst, North Lawrence, Ohio,
grows corn, oats, wheat and clover in
regular four year rotation. Everything
is fed on the farm except the wheat.
He asks whether it would pay better to
raise rye instead OF wheat and feed it
out, thus selling no crop off the farm.
No, 1 wouldn't do this where you live.
Better grow wheat and sell it and buy
wheat ban with the money to feed
with your corn and stover and clover.
Wheat will bring you, say, IA cents
pound or near it. You can buy wheat
bran in the summer usually for half
to three.quarters of cent a pound.
The pound of wheat contains .102 of
pound of digestive protein; one pound
of bran, 1922. A pound of wheat bran,
you see, will cost considerably less than
you sell a pound of wheat for; in fact,
you can nearly buy two pounds of bran
for one of wheat, and the bran is worth
more than your wheat to feed with your
corn to all growing animal, and COWS
giving milk or carrying calf.
Rye is not quite as good as wheat to
feed, 30 you would gain nothing by
growing rye to feed unless you can
grow ten to fifteen per cent more per
acre. You might as well feed your
wheat. But the best way is to raise
large crops of good, clean wheat, and
sell and buy bran when it is lowest and
store it for winter. The rotation you
are following, friend Horst, and the
feeding out of practically all you raise,
and your careful saving of manure
under cover should enable you to grow
large paying crops of wheat Your
land must increase in fertility under
such good management, and particu-
larly if you buy bran with the wheat
money for time.
But this isn't all by any means. Your
COWS and growing animals will do much
better for having plenty of bran along
with corn and cornstalks. This, with
nice clover hay, ought to make them
do well, indeed. Full grown beef
cattle will do pretty we'll on clover hay
and corn and slower. However, good
farmers as you are, fatten steers before
they get their growth, and in this case
wheat bran with corn and clover will
pay. 1t will keep the animal growing
as well as fattening. The protein in
the brain furnishes growing material,
that is the material to make blood and
muscle and bone. Bran is more than
one-eighth protein; corn only about
one-twefth. II is true that pound of
wheat would give more heat and ener-
gy producing food (carbohydrates)
than pound of bran, but it would be
lost, at corn and stalks and hay furnish
more of this than is needed.-T. 3.

the French girl likes to marry title.
So does the American girl. And |
must say frankly that do not disap-

girls with titled Europeans. Not as
many of their marriages are unhappy
as are generally believed. Whenever
a marriage Of this kind may say an
international marriage-does not turn
out well, its failure is heralded all over
the world
On the other hand, the many misfft-
ting marriages between people less So
cially conspicuous attract little or no
attention.
The union of ancient families from
the Old World with rich ones from the
New should make good social and
domestic combination. Americans are
rich, and if they wish to spend some
money in sustaining the ancient splen-
dor Of those European houses into
which their daughters marry, coun-

The girls OF both countries are
brought up differently. In the United
States there is co-education of the
sexes. The youth of both sexes grow

seldom say a word in the drawing

soonest women he ever saw in France
were born and brought up in the
United States.
Margaret Fuller declared that when
she visited Paris the most beautiful
women at the gorgeous receptions of
the Palace Of the Tuileries were Amer
leans
On the other hand, Paul Bourget
would not admit the foregoing state
ments, and Max O'Rell looks upon the
young women of France as perambula-
ting pictures.
The high esteem in which the Amer
lean girl is held by her own people is
beneficial TO her, and to civilization
generally. One can always Judge of
the civilization Of country by the
position of its women.
The apotheosis OF the American girl
is one of the most characteristic feat
ures of American society. There is no
country in the world where girls are
made so much OF as in the United
States.
This is not mininHized by the fact
aiat in Paris gentlemen keep their
hats longer in their hands when talk

young women have everybody at their

A great deal of racial and anthropo-

strong characteristic of the Ameri-

the men of the future upon whom the

1898 | found myself in most complete

and weeks he had carried smiling
face and held her on his knee as il he
believed in her as he did in his holy
grandmother All things come to the
husband who waits, and there came an
evening when district messenger boy
delivered letter into the wife's hands.
The crafty husband was hunting for a

but he perseyered, and the damning
epistle was at last in his hands. In his
heart he was yowing TO show no mercy,

Three Lakes Mystery.

Last Tuesday afternoon the quiet
village Of Three Lakes was startled by
the report that the body of a child
had been found in Spirit lake. A
party of ladies while hshing in boat,
saw what they thought to be the body
Of an infant lying on the lake bottom
near the horse ferry.
They fastened to town to notify
the proper authorities, and Justice
Donally hurriedly put on his official
robe, summoned a jury and went to
the lake to fish out the body.
AS they neared the ferry, death
like silence prevailed The Justice
gathered his robe about him, and
with a gaff-hook in his hand boldly
entered a boat and pushed out from
shore. Carefully he searched every
square foot of ground and at last
those on the bank saw him start and
shudder. The ladies had not been
mistaken, there lay the body with it's
skull crushed. The Justice showed
his gaff-hook into the cold wet water,
drew there from-s.a rubber doll. y
The silence was unbroken, and the
Judge and jury quietly entered the
wagon and drove back to town where
a great multitude awaited them, and
the fane of the Judge was indeed a
study, and the jury quickly HE'D
themselves away and left the Judge
to explain how it happened, while
the boys smoked and drank many.
