The first requisite for a creamery Is plenty of good milk or cream to be had within a reasonable distance of the creamery. The use of the separator on the farm or at separating stations in milk producing districts has enabled them to be run so as to draw their SUD- plies from a much wider circle than they did when the milk was all taken to the creamery, says American Culti- vator The dairymen receive good prices for their cream, and their sep arator milk Is also an important Item to them, as In feeding calves and swine It proves much more valuable than Is the sour skimmilk received when the milk Is sent to the small creameries.
 To produce good milk there must be good pastures in the summer and good fodder in the winter, with grain enough used to make well balanced ration
 But all this should be where milk is supplied to city market. and if better prices are realized for the cream sent to the creamery there will be more en- couragement to grow green crops for SuLuulSA dhd luli lttblAlE Nutii DdS- lures are short, to build silos and put In ensilage for winter fodder. to buy and feed more grain and to keep more cows and better cows. to grow more calves, to make more and richer ma nuTe and thus to grow better crops.
 An unfailing supply of water and ice nre needed on the farm and at the dairy, and the water must be pure.
 Cows of good butter making breeds should be kept by the producers and not such as are better adapted to pro- duce large quantities of milk. Quality Is more important to the creamery than quantity. Luckily such cows, grades of Jersey and Guernsey, can be bought at reasonable rates now, and farmers have been very generally educated up 10 a knowledge of the type of COW needed for the butter dairy. Most of them have also learned that good food and enough of 1t Is necessary to pro- duce rich milk. Luckily there are not many dairy or milk farms which are not near enough to the railroads to al- low of transportation of the cream to factory located at some central point.

Berlin Church sittings.

According to statistics published by the ecclesiastical authorities. there are only SS,T12 church sittings in Berlin. AS Berlin Is city with nearly 1,T50,- GOO inhabitants, the probability Is that there Is no other Protestant city In the world where the disproportion between population and church accommodation Is so great. The empress has done much recently to provide new churches in congested districts. but the popula- ton Is growing at rate far In excess of the church building.
 Owing to the enormous size of their parishes Berlin clergymen are greatly ovcrworked. According to statistics. some of them have to attend to the spiritual needs of more than 30.0O0 per sons.
 Another curious report Is that 10 per cent of the total baptisms registered in Berlin are those of illegitimate children and as large numbers of illegitimate children are not baptized It follows that the total number must be much greater than 10 per cent.

 The interesting feature of the meet ing was the reading of letter from Dr. NJ. n. Mann. one of the presidents physicians. to MT. T. NJ. Sullivan. the secretary of the association. as follows;
 AS President Mckinley was dying ] stood behind a screen in his room and heard him say his last words. His wife came into the room, aud he said to her 'Goodby, all; goodby. It is Gods way His will be done, not ours
 ''There was some further conyersa ton with his wife in the way of leave taking. but this should not be repeated. About an hour later he said to his wife. Nearer, my God, to thee, cen though 1t be a cross, has been my constant prayer He tried to say something more. but I could not catch 1t. I gave out at the time the first sentence as be- ing the most appropriate to be remem- bered as his last words. 1 wrote them down at the time, so that there can be no question about it."

EMERSON'S SHIRTS.
The Story That Ia Told of an Absen
 minded Professor.

The Story That Is Told of an Absent
 minded Professor.
 The absentmindedness of pr. Alfred Emerson, the arch@ologist, formerly of the Johns Hopkins university and now abroad making a collection of an- tiques for the museum of the Univer- sity of California, Is well known among his Baltimore friends.
 The memorable occasion when, book ed for public lecture at the Hopkins. he let his audience wait in ghastly sus- pense while he, all unconscious of the engagement, was found busily employ ed unpacking a box of casts will long be remembered. His carefully adjust ing fresh collar over one already on and his going to the station and for getting to take his train are historic in university lore, but 1t remains for his friend and colaborer, MT. Joseph Thatcher Clark of the British museum, to tell the following story:
 The pair were en route to make some important excavations and had reached southern Europe when pr. Emerson appeared with an indignant face and a 'etter from America in his hand. He explained that the letter was from one of his several brothers, accusing him of having absentmindedly carried off several shirts belonging to the brother when starting abroad.
 '"To prove how basely false and un- just his suspicious are," said the troubled doctor, T will get all my shirts and spread them out before you and see If you can find a single one bearing any initial other than my own."
 The shirts, eleven in number, were produced, and consternation followed when they were found to be variously labeled Arthur Hale, c. Emerson, H. Emerson and I. z. N. F. K. In fact. all except two, these bearing no label at all and presumably Dr. Emerson's, bore initials other than his Baltimore Sun.

The silo adds nothing to the value of the corn that goes Into it perhaps, but 1t does the next best thing in preserv- ing the feeding value of 1t more com pletely than Is possible under any other process, says w. F. McSpasran in Ma tional Stockman. Just when the corn question among farmers, and 1 believe the tendency among those in authority Is to advise toward letting the corn get too old. They tell us we get more dry matter by allowing the grain to glaze. but as for me and my herd we general ly have an abundance of dry matter without going to the length of sacri- flcing the valuable succulence that makes silage pre-emincnt dairy feed.
 My time for cutting the corn Is as near ns may be when the ears are just think Ing about glazing. When it Is too old for me to eat it, 1t is old enough for my silo. I do not intend to run counter to the scientific fellows by saying I am not robbing my silage of dry properties 1t might have acquired If I had not inter- fered, but 1 have imprisoned for my cows the sweet juices and havors so much relished In the managers.
 silo Experience.
 AIr. D. NJ. Macpherson of Lancaster. Canada, is one of the few men on this continent who hunt this dairy question down to the utmost profit in every thing, says Hoard's Dairyman. On 125 acres of available land he carries about 70 cows. He does not breed his cows, but he Is so close judge that he made his entire herd average last year over 1000 pounds of milk per COW. The gross receipts from his farm In cash last year were over S6,000. Mir Mac pherson Is great believer in the econ omy of the silo. Here Is some evidence he bears to the same in a dairy conven- ton held at Ormstown, Canada. a year ago:
 Last fall tried feeding cornstalks with five pounds of meal per COW. The way l came to have the stalks was this: After filling my silos l had two acres of corn over. and told my man. ager to stock 1t up. The cows. fed these stalks with ration of meal, went down In their milk and could not http up Wllu tue OtueTS tuhl got eIsl- lage. After three weeks on stalks we went back to ensilage. when from the 70 cows the milk increased, 300 pounds day"
 Sweet SilnRe.
 Sweet ensilage Is comparatively an uncertain term, but amount of mois- ture increases the acidity. Slow filling and little tramping tends to produce sweet ensilage, but 1t should not be all lowed to reach a temperature above 140 degrees, or waste may ensue. It Is also well to avoid freezing. though 1t does not seriously injure the palatabll- ity of the ensilage, and there Is seldom any serious loss from this cause.
 EnsiIage a Cow Food.
 Ensilage Is readily eaten by all ani- mals, but Is pre-eminently COW food. By It's sueculence and palatablllty 1t promotes milk flow, and when a grain ration goes along with 1t which tends to balance the ration 1t Is an exceed ingly cheap food. Wheat bran or shorts make an admirable grain ration for growing animals fed on silage. and an addition of small quantity of gluten or cottonseed meal makes an ideal ra- E-.. h.
