DAIRY SUGGESTIONS.

BY the way, isn't this a good record
to establish? Nobody buys an animal
twice of any but an honest man who
does right by him.
1t doubtless pays well to invest in
some of the devices which keep the
water so that each cow can help her
self when she wants it. Milk is near
ly all water, anyhow.
All cattle feel the pinch of cold IN
winter, and unless additional feed and
good, comfortable quarters are given
them they will fall off rapidly in con-
dition and will be Improbable all
winter.
Make your stable floors and cutters
water tight and use absorbents, or
conduct the liquid manure to cistern
in the barnyard, where it can be
pumped out and sprayed on the mead
ows.
Charcoal is good absorber of gases
in the milk room where foul gases
are present. It should be freshly
powdered and kept there continually,
especially in hot weather, when un-
wholesome odors are most liable to
infect the milk.-Farm Journal.

even 20 feet. It possesses another ad-
vantage of large Importance: being low
down, the fodder is placed on it with
out tossing it, as with a wagon, and no
difference how hard the wind may blow
it can be loaded and will stay in place.
The two pieces which form the frame
(A) are made of poles, Is or 16 feet
long, trimmed down so as to dispense
with unnecessary weight. Where tim
Der for saving is convenient these
pieces may be made the length men
toned and sawed 2xS inches, hooks
made of wagon tires or other band iron
being attached to the ends to hook over
the rear bolster of the wagon, the box
of which has been removed and the hay
frame, with tall standards placed at
the front end, put thereon, leaving off
the wings. However, most farmers will
make the pieces of straight poles and
cut a notch in the ends to fit over the
wagon bolster and make them secure
by heavy chain or rope. There should
be three cross pieces, as shown, to make
the frame rigid, and two sets of stand
ards (B) to hold the fodder straight
and in place. One end of the frame
drags on the ground, which, if very
rough, will make it necessary in order
to avoid trouble, to tie rope on the
front end of the hay frame and bring
it straight across the top of the load,
tieing the other end to the cross piece
(C). With this device you not only have
the hay frame to load on, but the de-
vice illustrated, which will accommo-
date several shocks, and greatly facil-
itate the work of hauling out fodder

FOR HAULING FODDER.
A Simple Frame Upon Which Three
or Four Shocks Can BE Carried
with Ease.

Hauling out fodder with an ordinary
hay frame on the wagon or on sled
with standards at either end is slow
business when there are large numbers
of hogs, sheep, cattle and horses to be
fed. Whenthe mercury registers above
15belowzero and the shocks are covered
with snow and sleet the farmer wants
to get his fodder out and fed to the
stock as soon as possible, when he I'M
dertakes it. When but one or two shocks
are hauled at time several trips have
to be made, making a few hours work
take up half day.
The illustration herewith shows a
simple, inexpensive fodder frame or
gear upon which It is easy to haul three
or four large shocks, sometimes five, de-
pending upon the length. which may be

THE LOVES OF SAILORS.
Ideal Life of Lord HnTl&e-Story OF
Lord COllinEwood, Hero of
Trafalgar.

Instancesof domestic felicity among
sailors of high rank are not uncommon
in fact, famous sailors ever have
seemed to possess that profound admi-
ration and respect for womanhood and
those gentle qualities of heart that in
sure such felicity. Among these in
stances is the ideal life of Admiral Lord
Hawke, of the British navy, and his
beloved wife Kitty. Although monu-
ments do not always tell the truth, the
inscription on theirs is said to be alb
solutely correct, that "the beauty of her
person was excelled only by the accom-
plished elegance of her mind,' and that
Gin their conjugal duties they were
equaled by few, excelled by none."
An admiral who, in the midst of dan
gerous and difficult work, thought
much about his family and domestic
ties, was Lord Collingwood, one of the
heroes of Trafalgar, who was married
to the daughter of an alderman of New
castle. While conducting an arduous
campaign he wrote the following to his
wife regarding their daughters:
seech you, keep them constantly en-
ployed; make them read to you, not
trifes, but history, in the manner we
used to do in the evenings; blessed
evenings, indeed! The human mind
will improve itself, if it be kept in ac-
ton, but grows dull and torpid when
left to slumber. I believe even stupidi-
ty itself may be cultivated" Writing
to his daughters, he said:
my darlings, little Sarah and Mary,
I was delighted with your last letters,
my blessings, and desire you to write
of the city of Newcastle. I hope we
shall have many happy days and many
a good laugh together yet" In other
letters he gives to his daughters adj
vice about the management of temper,
letter writing and other practical mat
tiers.
No day passed in which Lady Colling-
wood had not her husbands blessing
and his paryers for her happiness, nor
was he unmindful of such anniversaries
as her birthday or her wedding day.
Thus in a letter with the address:
'Ocean," and the date June 16, 1906,
he writes: ssThis day, my love, is the
anniversary Of our marriage, and I wish
for many returns of it. If ever we have
peace, I hope to spend my latter days
amid my family, which is the only sort
of happiness I enjoy" Chicago Even

FEEDING IN WINTER.
for Cows In Practice That
Pays Well.

In feeding cornstalks the dairy cows
show that they relish them much bet
ter than when fed dry and hard. There
is improvement in the actual nourish-
ing qualities of the stalks by cooking
them, for the process does not add any,
thing to them, but the fact that the
fodder is made more palatable to the
animals is sufficient excuse for one
adopting this course. Dry. hard corn
stalks are not really pleasant food to
cows, and many will eat them only
when forced to it from hunger. But
if the stalks are taken and cut up into
small lengths, and then cooked or
steamed and fed to the animals warm,
they have an odor that is refreshing.
Cows will eat the mush thus made
greedily. If one has steam on the farm
the fodder stalks can be cooked with
the steam much quicker than by any
other method. If we add little grain
to this cooked mush the cows will eat
far more than when fed any other way.
In feeding the stalks in this way the
grain food should not be cut down, as
some are inclined to do, for, as said be-
fore, nothing is added to the stalks by
cooking them.
I believe that all good dairy cows re-
spond quickly to good feeding, and little
improvements in the method of prepar-
ing their food. In cold weather they
show the effect of warm feeding imme-
diately. 1t stands to reason that they
feel better when they have warm food
to take into their stomach, just as much
as man. By tempting them in this
way we undoubtedly increase the flow
of milk. Anything that freshens the
appetite and make the food more pal
atable is very apt to affect the milk
flow favorably. The work of steaming
or cooking the fodder adds quite mate
rally to the dairyman's labors, but if
it can be done once or twice week it
will help to improve the milk supply.
Poultry raisers see to it that their birds
have warm food once a day through
the winter, and it may be that dairy
men can find in it a lesson for them.
They all agree that warm food agrees
with the hens laying eggs and greatly
helps in increasing the supply of this
product.-E. p. Smith, in American Gull
tivator.

The First Orphan.
n 49IlSNSS n N n 1ISVIS7E N;

NTHEN Art Halderson, the architect
w and builder, went out to super
intend the erection of St. Hilda's Or
phanage in the grove west of the city
he had to ride three miles in his cart
beyond the limits of the most eXplora-
tory street car.
'The orphans will never find this place
out" he commented to himself.
1t was L fact that St. Hilda's appeared
to be without neighbors, and for that
reason land was cheap and a play
ground a thing easy of achievement.
The contract had been given to Hal
derson later in the year than he could
have desired, and he saw grave difficult
ties ahead of him if he did not get the
walls and roof in place before the severe
weather. So he put a large force of
men on and worked them hard and
kept himself at the task of pushing
the work early and late.
1t must be admitted that when the
sun shone golden and the haze rested
over the prairie Halderson would much
have preferred being on the back of a

ing of girders or the erection of chin
neys The summer, with her work all
done, was ready for a holiday, and
seemed to call to all her children to
come out and laugh with her amid the
goldenrod and grapes. Perhaps the
young architect might have found the
call irresistible had there been anyone
to run with him down the shining road
to holiday land, but there was no one
but the serious hammered workmen
near him. He had an ache for COM
panion. Life was seriously lonely with
him since he had left his old associates
and come half across the continent to
put his abilities to the test at Chicago.
A week of wind and sodden rain took
the glory out of the landscape and left
the grass and the leaves all brown. The
oak leaves lay thick upon the orphan
age ground and the place and the work
alike seemed melancholy to Halderson.

Sad little faces seemed to peer at him
out Of the unfinished windows; slow
little feet seemed to kick at the leaves.
The pathos of life in general and of an
orphans life in particular haunted the
young mans thoughts.
One day when the sky was drab and
the wind kept up a shrilly shrek
through the denuded trees, and the
leaves were piled in mounds, he be-
came conscious of little figure NOV
ing along the outskirts of the grove. It
was much the color of the leaves, and
as it crept along, peering in curiously,
Halderson had a curious idea that it
might be the spirit of the orphans
come to look at their future habitation.
The little thing had a sylph-like mo-
ton, and now and then some caprice
got the better of her dignity and she
scampered among the leaves like kit
ten, making a great rustling. Her
tangled brown hair streamed upon her
shoulders, escaping from a tiny hood
which she had long since outgrown.
Her little frock was fringed at the
bottom as the result of impulsive ad-
ventures. Halderson was quite fasci-
mated with the antics of this little earth
creature-for she seemed as irresponsi-
BILE as gnome and as grotesque-and
he made up his mind to form her ac-
quaintance. This was not easy to do,
for no sooner would he approach her
than she would speed before him on
the lightest of feet in and out among
the trees. Not caring to make him
self too undignifed before his men,
Halderson desisted, and went about his
work. Then the leaf-girl drew quite
near-so near that he could see her eyes
and her little tanned, eerie face:
At twilight she disappeared, and
though Halderson looked all about him
as he drove home for some house in
which she would be likely to live, he
could find none. There was, it is true,
group of taxpayer shanties occupied
by graders, half mile to the west, but
it did not seem to him that she could
have come from there. Moreover the
shanties had been there since he be-
gan his task. Why had the elf not come
out when the days were golden and the
flowers were in bloom? Why should
she wait till the storms came? Did she
ride on the autumn wind? Was she the
spirit of the faded leaves?
1t was foolish of sensible and hard
working young man to be haunted by
these thoughts at night, but because
he was lonesome and not much hap
pened in his life Halderson dreamed
of the matter, and, waking early, de-
voted an hour of reverie to it. The

FROZEN MILK TRADE.
In Den mark and Other Dairy Sections
of Europe 1t Has Proved n
Great Success.

The following relating to the frozen
milk trade of Denmark, especially that
pertaining to supplying the city of
Copenhagen, is taken from the Elgin
dairy report: About third, of the
available milk is frozen artifcially into
cakes weighing about 25 pounds each.
These are placed in large cans, which
are subsequently filed with fresh milk,
and, when the receptacles have been
Theoretically closed, they are dis
patched to their destination. Under
suitable conditions the milk keeps
fresh for many days, and when required
for consumption the cans are surround
ed by hot water coils, which, by caus-
ing gradual thawing, creates currents
in the liquid and pervents any of the
constituents from separating out. Be-
fore this new system came into vogue
all the milk tailed in Copenhagen dur
ing the hot weather was cooled at the
farm and transported to the city at
night. In spite of these precautions
the demand for ''frozen milk" soon be-
came so great that it was not met by
the supply, which then amounted to
nearly 5000 gallons per day. A Ger
man commission which was sent last
year to investigate the ice milk trade
of Copenhagen reported that not only
had there been no difficulty in introduce
ing it, but the milk was preferred to
any other, because chilling it as soon
as possible after milking preserves the
origina! aroma, ard binders the action
of heterogeneous. It was also re-
ported to be of advantage to retailers,
who can thereby store their surplus
milk and use it as it is needed.
An interesting experiment was made
in Germany last summer in this con-
nection. Frozen milk, contained in
square can, which was packed with
straw in wooden box, was sent from
an ice dairy in northern Prussia to
Zurich, in Switzerland. Owing to un-
foreseen delays the consignment was
en- route from June to- June 9. The
milk was then found to be absolutely
normal in taste and smell, and, on test
ing, its acidity correspondent to that of
freshly drawn milk. The liquid was,
in fact, unchanged, and the case has
been quoted in the German dairy press
as an encouraging fact regarding the
supply of fresh milk under adverse cir
cnmstances, which, it may be added, al
ways obtain in hot countries.

ENGLAND'S FAMOUS SAILOR.
How Nelson Fell in Love-Hnppiest
Day of His Life Was When
He Married.

Nelson at Trafalgar and Dewey at
Manila frequently have been COM
pared to show that each possessed
many of the same qualities and many
of the same ideas in regard to naval
warfare. It would now seem that in
tone they also possessed in common
many traits.
Nelson was fully as impetuous lover
as Dewey has proved himself to be,
though less determined, it would APP
pear, upon the feminine heart he
coveted. When Nelson commanded
the Albemarle he had narrow es-
cape from matrimony. The ship was
about to leave Quebec, and had gone
down the river to the place of anchor
age. Next morning, as Alexander
Davis, a friend of Nelson, was walk
ing on the beach, he saw, to his aston
ishment, Nelson landing from his
boat. Nelson took Davis by the arm
to walk toward the town and ex-
planned he had found it impossible to
leave Quebec without again Seeing the
woman whose society had contributed
so much to his happiness there, and
offering her his hand.
IF you do,' said his friend, 'syour
utter ruin must inevitably follow"
''Then let it follow" said Nelson.
''for am resolved to do it, 49,.
''And l." said Davis, IAN resolved
you shall not"
Nelson, however, upon this occasion
was less resolute than his friend and
allowed himself to be led back to the
boat.
The second attachment which Mel
son formed was with Miss Andrews,
the daughter of an English clergy
man, when he was on half pay and
staying at St. Omer. It was less ar
dent than the first, and he got over it
when he left France. Getting another
ship called the Boreas, he sailed to the
West Indies. At Antigua the woman 5

almost necessity to Nelson, were

were not for her." he wrote, 81 should
almost hang myself in this internal
hole" ..-.
Mrs. Montroy left for England and
the gallant sailor consoled himself
with Mrs. Nisbet, the young widow of
a physician. Her manners were mild
and winning, completely capturing
Nelson. They were married March II
1857. For many years they were hap.
Ply. Each retained to death their love
for the other, although the notorious
Lady Hamilton did exert an undue in.
fluence over him and caused Nelson's
wife, who was not of strong character
to become passionately jealous and
eventually to leave him, although she
cherished his memory to the last and
to her grandchildren told in loving
terms of her sailor husband. Nelson
too, was ever devoted, though apart
from her. Shortly after the battle Of
the Nile, when a friend said to him
that no doubt he considered the day
of that victory as the happiest of his
life, he answered.: ''No; the happiest
day was that on which I married Lady

Milking Makes Mixers.

If there is any one thing about
dairying that has been thoroughly
and completely demonstrated, it is
that milking makes mixers. The
best cow in the world can be ruined
as mixer in a comparatively short
time by simply letting the calf suck
her, or by carelessness in milking.
The man who has ten or twelve or more
cows and milks them year in and year
out, keeps right at it and practices
improved methods of feeding, will get
ahead right along. It don't pay to
milk the cows one year and let the
calves suck the next, says the Cream
ery Gazette.

Intensive System OF Dairyins.

In describing what may be termed
the intensive system OF dairying, an
English authority tells us that the
cows should be well groomed daily
and In hot weather they are all the
better for cold shower bath in the
morning. This can be readily given
where there is a supply of water by
graduation, by means OF an India rub
Der hose. The cows are easily kept
clean and thrive well under such
treatment. They never leave their
stalls and when the milk yield falls
below eight quarts a day they are
sold.
