look like small pear trees, and which
are generally not over twenty feet

Salt in the Dairy.

Cows should be sailed regularly, OF
better still, should have constant ac-
cess to salt. The practice of sailing
them once is not a good one, as most
cattle will lick a little salt every day
If they can get it.
Thus provided they will yield more
and better milk than otherwise, and
will also maintain better health. AS
salt provokes thirst. the mich animal
should have as free access to water
as to this saline mineral, or the latter

Speaking of salt leads me to say that
some failures in dairy butter making l
have noted, came about by sailing the
cattle and the butter out of the same
barrel. In other words, coarse, insolu-
BILE salt was used for the butter, when
only the highest and most refined
grade should be employed. Salt that
is not soluble viii not permeate the
substance of butter evenly, and thus
rancldity may be induced. Again,
grains of salt in butter always detraet
from its appearance, and are inimical
to even flavor, from these causes alone
lowering its market value. Let me say
here that there are to-day just as fine
grades of American dairy salt pro-
duced as come from England.
American milch cattle fed on Amer
lean grass produce butter sailed with
American salt that is the peer of any
on earth, and is so conceded in foreign
markets. In attaining this result,
however. one must utilize the best of.
everything, thinking not that poor or
cheap material can be introduced with
impunity to future quality. l knew a
dairyman once who, in a spasm of
economy (O, sought to save fifty cents
by purchasing a cheaper grade of salt
than was his wont, and later lost his
shipment of butter and thereby seven
dollars. 1t was one of the most effec-
tive lessons he could have been taught
in practical Carrying, exemplifying as
it did that cheap material always pro-
duces cheap quality. When it comes
to cheese making, salt holds just as inn
portant a position as in other dairy
lines, i. e., that solubility and purity
ere highly necessary. The relation of
salt. be it understood, to all phases of
dairying is a highly important one.

Mr.. Rogers and Miss Lippincott had

thought they would wed. But then
William met another girl, whose name,
peculiarly enough, was Lydia Lippin-

in happiness for fifty years. The first
Lydia remained single.

Mr.. Rogers. feeling lonesome, went to

still burning. Then, according to the
custom of the Friends, they asked the
