Temperance Would Transform.

Sensible advocates Of temperance do
not claim that general abstinence from
intoxicating liquors would Of itself
make this earth like Gods heaven.
They simply declare that it would help
transform the world. Where are the
plague spots today? Many are in the
heart of Christendom, in great. rich
cities like London, Liverpool, Edln-
burgh, New York, Chicago and San
Francisco. The Anglo-American ma
tions can hardly aspire to dominate. the
world until they have removed these
cancers that are eating out the heart Of
the best civilization that has ever ex-
isted. One great cause OF these plague
spots is strong drink. If you go through
certain streets in English and American
cities, where living is reduced to its
most perilous and pitiable stage, you
will find the dram shops fourishing and
their victims on every hand asking
aims, or Quarreling with one another, or
reduced to maudlin and besotted con-
dition. If by one stroke we could
achieve the thing that would today
most transform this earth, would it not
be the elimination of this tremendous
and constant source Of personal ruin
and social degradation?

The Chief Meanings of Miracles.

1t was the glory of Christ which John
saw manifested at Cana Of Galilee,
when Jesus came 10 the aid of the girer
Of the wedding feast. Miracle was
manifestation; what lie was appeared IN
what he did His power, shown by con-
siderate hclpfulness, in quiet place,
among simple people and without
noise of Reimbursement, stands out
clearly in this first miracle, of which,
perhaps, the writers of the other gospels
had never heard. Such an open
manifestation of power is in startling
contrast with those other first miracles
with which the tempter urged him to
begin his public work. The tempter
would have had him turn stones into
bread for the satisfaction of his own
solitary need. He would have had him
stand conspicuous on the temple spire
and come down, angel guarded, to the
assembled crowds. But cur Lord first
put forth his might to save q simple
householder from embarrassment, and
to help tho good cheer Of a wedding
feast.-Congregatio

milk would be warmed in the morning
to the proper temperature of eight

jacketed or double tin tub. Then al
the milk can be warmed by pouring
hot water in the jacket and drawing
it off. when the milk is sufficiently

cheese tongs to lay across the tub are
also needed. Next comes the cheese

to start the whey. then the cheese bas'

sides of the basket. A thin straine1
cloth must be placed inside the basket
to receive the curd, which Is carefully
dipped into it at intervals after stand
ing a proper time for the whey to be-
gin to separate from the curd.
For dipper a piece tin like % milk
skinner is used. 1t must be there so
as not to break the curd. A cheese
hoop, some cheese boards and cheese
press complete this primitive equip.
ment. The sizes of dairy cheese that
sell best are those that weigh from
fifteen to twenty-five pounds each.
If there are no hoops or press at hand
doubtless any dairy supply house
could furnish them.
Only half the battle is won when
the cheese is made and out OF the
press. The curing is most 1mpor-
tant matter, and but few farmhouses
have suitable rooms for this purpose
where a low, dry temperature can be
kept in hot weather. If any one in
tends to make a business of making
dairy cheese a small room should be
fitted up with an ice rack in the centre
and water drainage from the same.
In making dairy cheese from large
number of COWS a cheese room or
cheese house would be- fitted up with
factory apparatus and run as fac
tory, only on q smaller scale. And
the cheese made by any factory pro-
cess would be much like the factory
make, but with the advantage of only
one herd of COWS furnishing the milk
and that of uniform Quality.-Alpha

six or eight weeks after bloSsoming.
Many other fruits are better for thin
ming; this is particularly true of april
cots.
The average grower Of apples may
keep the bearing surface within
proper limits by judicious pruning.
Thinning apples by hand is not pay
ing business with present market con-
ditions. The time is coming when
fruit growers will better understand
their work, a more uniform grade, bet
ter in quality, grown and marketed by
business methods. This is what our
horticultural societies are working for,
to place a better product upon the
market, and it is reasonable to sup
pose that higher prices will follow

Half a Century in an Asylum,

Robert Hawk, who was admitted as
patient to St. EliZabeth's Asylum
for the Insane at its opening, in 1855,
and who is stated to have been at the
asylum longer than any inmate now
confined there, died at the institution
at the age of about eighty-fve years.
During all the years of his continuous
hospital life he was a most contented
inmate. He had seen the institution
expand from it's original proportions
to a mammoth establishment, and
had been witness Of many changes.

consequence they grow better and the
smaller, less active pigs get less feed
and are iostled about and fall farther
and farther behind. BY using a gate,
made as portrayed. in the feeding
pen, the large. strong pigs will be him
6ered in no way from getting their
share. and the smaller ones will be
given an equal chance, or better. The
gate (c) is fastened to the lifting lever
(bl. which is held at the desired height,
admitting the desired sized pig by
pin (a), through the posts and through
the lever. The LOWER hole admits the
smaller pigs, but the larger sized can
not squeeze under. When the little
pigs have satisfied themselves. lift the
gate another hole and admit the next
grade, and so Oh. In this way the
smaller pigs will not become stunted
by being crowded away from the feec-
ing trough or foor.-J. L. Irwin, in

Roofed in God,

From a nursery one brings a little
switch q few inches long. What is that?
An oak. That an oak? Well, yes, it is
the beginning Of an oak, but leave 1t
living there on the table and presently
it would dry and be good only for the
fire: but plant it in the ground and II
will grow to the stature of an oak.
Take this man up and root him in God
and no man can tell to what he will
grow. That is the message. II can
not?" You ana God can; there is moth
ing that you and God cannot do to-
gether. When He enters your life,
points out to you your duty, calls you
TO your mission, lays on you your bur-
den, crowns you with suffering, He
stands at your side and says to you,
Together you and l can. Il can do all
things through Him that strengthened
me."-Lyman Abbott.

closed has been the most successful in the
history of the Secret Service division:
During the year but four new counterfeit
notes were placed in circulation, against
an average Of about ten for each year dur.

Coin counterfeiting decreased all over the
country except in New York City and vi

show a total of 594. OF these 262 were

the courts: one is fugitive from justice: !:
one committed suicide while awaiting trial

Influencing the Color Or BatteS

The color of butter is largely influ-
enced by the food. Butter is some
times white and at certain seasons it
may be golden yellow. The coloring
of butter by artificial means, such as
the use of annatto, will never be neces-
sary where carrots are grown and fed
regularly. Cows that receive variety
of food at all seasons of the year will
usually produce yellow butter. -.-
