sir. Carnegie in Cumberland.

At the city election in Cumberland
Maryland yesterday the proposition to
accept the offer Of a public library from
Nr. Andrew Carnegie was defeated
The reasons given in our Dispatches are
that. ii order to avail themselves Of
the proposed benefit. the citizens Of the
town would be compelled to stand
little extra taxation. and that the negro
voters of the place particularly objected
to acceptance. under an impression that
they would be debarTed from privileges
growing out Of the beqUest.
This Carnegie library business is one
that we hardly know how to discuss

connection with the Carnegie library

seem to be better charity If Mr. Car
negie, desiring TO found Libraries here

them in a financial position to carry
themselves. In that way there might
not be so many, but they would be
more efficaci0us and monumental

WATER AFFECTS MILK.
Therefore the Farmer Who Lets His
Cows Drink from q Stagnant
Pool Commits a Crime.

We hear some things that we find
hard to believe in the way of the treat
ment of dairy cows. One of these
things is that there are here and there
pastures in which the only watering
place is a stagnant pond full of in
sects and Shiny grasses. 1t is won
der that cows can drink such stuff and
still remain healthy, but it is certain
that they take chances on acquiring
some one of the water-borne diseases
common to stock. No human being
should be asked to drink milk made
out of such water, even after it has
been strained through the COW. 1t is
claimed that other owners are known
to water their cows out of rain water
barrels. Well, that is only a slight
improvement over the stagnant pond
method. The water in the rain water
barrel soon takes on smell that if
disagreeable to man and beast. Why
can't our cows have at least pure
water to drink? Water, pure and
sparkling, enters very largely into the
life of every being. Let us be sure
that the milk we drink is made from
water and food absolutely pure

GOOD AND BAD MIXERS.
Why Dairymen Should Make Occa-
siona1 Tests of the Milk from
All Their Cows.

At milking trial held in connection
with one Of the recent summer shows
in England the cow which was awarded
the first prize produced over six gal
Ions of milk in the day, and her milk
was so rich in quality that it produced
over four pounds of butter. At the
same show there were on exhibition
other cows of the same breed and
practically the same size and weight
which produced only two to three gal
Ions of milk and barely one pound OF
butter. 1t would be mistake to sup
pose that the feeding of one of the
tast-named would cost as much as the
six-gallon COW. because, as rule, the
better mixer cow is the more food
will she consume. 1t is only natural
that cow yielding six gallons OF
milk should require much more lib
sral food ration than one producing
less than half that quantity. The diff
ference in the cost of feeding the cows
in question would not, however, be
anything like so marked as their rela.
tive milk yields would suggest. In
practice it is found that cows pro-
ducing only ~ gallons to two gallons
that is, six to eight quarts-per day
cost as much to keep as those yielding
double that quantity. 1t is only wher
calculations of this kind are gone into
that the difference between good ant
bad mixers can be properly estimated
At least occasional tests should b.
| made of the milk which all the cows il
the herd are producing, and similar
test should be made of the food which
| they are consuming, and if it is found
as it is to be feared will be only too
frequently the case, that the animals
are not giving sufficient return TO,
the cost of the food which they ar
disposing of, they should be got rid o
at the first opportunity and thei
places filled by others capable of Civ
| ing better return for the food

GLASS BRIC-A-BkAC.

Glass, though proverbially brittle.
will stand any amount of hard usage;
but once it is broken the only thing
that remains to be done is to throw
it away. Cementing will not do much
good.
Glass that has been properly an
nealed will stand variations of tenn
perature perfectly well, but if this
hasn't been done it is likely to break
instantly and without apparent rea-
son.

ulated with rennet, allowed to stand
until sour, the surplus whey removed
by, drainage and pressure, after which
the resulting curd is sailed to taste and

line of the process, but the questions
of ripeness of milk, amount of rennet,
length of time it stands before drain
ing and the pressure to be applied are
not easily explained on paper, and they
