AN IMPORTANT ITEM.
of the Receipts from All
Their Sod Lands.

A farmer can have neither a good
pasture nor good meadow without
good sod. But the kind of sod he
needs on his pasture is very different
from the sod he needs in his meadow.
We see in contemporary laudation
of bluegrass sod for the pasture. But
we know that bluegrass sod is not
the ideal sod for a pasture. 1t should
be part of the sod but not the whole
thing. Blue grass makes good pas.
ture at certain seasons, but during
much of the time. is below it's prime.
The pasture sod should most certain
ly be formed of variety of grasses,
so that grass will be making a good
growth at all seasons when any grass
could grow.
The sod for the meadow should OF
course be made of one kind of grass.
The meadow is supposed to be for
the production of hay, and the hay
crop is gathered at one time. But
in both cases the sod should be we'll
taken care of, should be we'll MANFRED
and not permitted to get thin. One
of the great faults of our American
farming is neglect of the sod in both
pastures and meadows. In the sod
lies much of the profit on the farm.
We think if our farmers would keep
a close account of the receipts from
their sod lands they would pay more
attention to them.-Farmers' Re.

Making the Most of Cream.

II you want to get all the. cream
and what dairyman doesn't?-there
are certain things that must be done
to the milk. Whether you use a sep
arator, deep setting OF shallow set
ting, the milk fat must be started on
its dreaming way as soon as posi-
bl. after it comes from the COW, and
beiore it begins to lose it's animal
heat. If you let part of the milk get
cold before running it through the
separator the chances are that the
skim milk will contain more of the
butter fat than is profitable, and yet
the average dairyman will let it go
rather than run the skim milk
through the separator a second time.
Separating at once while the milk
is warm saves both time and butter

HOW TO USE GLYCERIN.
Uuless Mixed with an Equal Part
of Water 1t II Absolutely
Injurious to the Skin.

Since so many people use pure glyc-
erin for the skin word of caution
seems necessary. =,
If you apply little glycerin to the
tip of the tongue you will find that, al
though it has pleasant sweet taste,
the first sensation that is felt is one
Of pain and burning. This is caused
by the fact that glycerin has strong
affinity for water, and that it abscrbs
all the moisture from the surface
which it touches, thus drying up and
parching the nerves.
Ignorant of this fact, nurses, and
mothers have applied pure glycerin to
the chafed skin of infants, producing
often great pain. The glycerin ought
to have been first mixed with an equa!
bulk of water. This being done, it may
be applied to the most tender surfaces
without producing injury, and, as it
does not dry up. virtually maintains
the part in a constantly moist condi.
ton, excluding the air and promoting
the health process. 4
Rose water is most frequently used,
and benzoin is an excellent addition

selection OF q Bull Is a Matter of Par.
amount Importance to Dairy
men and StOckmen.

There are three points which should
have special attention in the selection
Of a bull, viz, breed, pedigree and in
dividual merit. Probably there is no
absolutely best breed Some breeds are
much better than others for some pur-
poses, while along different, and per-
haps equally important lines, they are
decidedly inferior. If cows are wanted
Tor dairy purposes, bull from one of
the recognized dairy breeds should be
selected. Any other choice will be
sure to result in disappointment and
loss. The man who is engaged in the
production of beef would find bull
from dairy breed most Improbable
selection. He should have a bull from
one of the breeds most noted for beef.
The climatic conditions, character of
the pastures in which the stock is to be
kept, and methods of feeding which
are followed, ought also to be care
fully considered. And when a choice
OF a particular breed has been made. it
is best. unless some very strong rea-
son for change appears, to keep this
stock permanently. The man who
keeps Jersey bull one summer, a Hol-
stein the next, and changes to some
OF her breed the third year is not work.

has had plenty of predecessors, but
none of them have been very success

gree is foolish in the extreme. the hav-

During long course of careful
bleeding, certain valuable qualities in

QUEEN AND JESTER.

agout Pace, the jester to Queen Eliza
beth. That post was not a pleasant
one, and Pace, who was, like most
court and other testers, inclined to
be personal, at last had to be for
hidden the royal presence. After he
had been for some time absent few
of his friends entreated the queen to
take him again into her favor and
engaged that thereafter his discourse
should be more guarded. But the
very first time the queen saw Pace
matters were as bad as ever. "Ah,

tie various breeds there are certain
families in which special features have
befn developed in an unusual degree.
Some families of Jerseys are much
lager butter producers than others,
ard there are families of Shorthorns
which are especially desirable for beef,
while others are excellent mixers. The
mere fact that bull belongs to a par
ticular breed does not determine his
value for any special line of breeding.
TO determine this with any degree Of
certainty, it is necessary to know, not
only what breed he represents, but
also what rank in that particular breed.
Individual merit is often but erro-
neously placed first in the list of quail
fications which the bull should possess.
OF course an individual without at
least moderate degree of merit would
be debarred at once. But it is much
better to have only fair degree of in
dividual merit and first-class ances-
try than it is to have the most perfect
form and the finest appearance, with
out being reinforced by a good pedi-
gree This because the bull not infre-
quently impresses upon his offspring
the characteristics of his ancestry more
forcib;y than he does his own. So it
often happens that bull of only mod
crate appearance, but with a first-class
pediglee, gets splendid stock, while one
which has an excellent appearance but
nothing to fortify it, gets stock which
is OF very little value. It is great
benefit to start we'll. and one of the
principal things to attend to in start
ing the breeding of cattle is to exercise
care and judgment in the selection of
bull.-Samuel A. Shook, in Farm and

Don't OverwOrk the Butter.

It is possible to work butter too
much. This repeatedly has been
proved. Indeed, overworked butter is
quite as poor as underworked butter.
A gilt-edged butter maker asserts that
the delicate nutty favor of his butter
is not added to his butter. and is simply
not permitted to escape from it. His
theory is that only butter in which
the globules of fat are unbroken can
have the nutty favor. He says that
his butter is so made that the fat
globules are whole when the butter is
finished. The breaking up of the
globules takes place in the mouth of
the consumer. and as they break up
the peculiar nutty favor is perceived.
It would follow from this theory that
all butter worked too much would be
wanting in favor. One thing is GER.
tain: Butter overworked is butter
that is not agreeable to the consumer.
