Spirtuaism has failed not because what it
seeks or pretends to do does not appeal in the
strongest possible manner to humanity. but he
cause it has accomplished nothing that satisfies
the reason Ii has revealed nothing that bears
the least evidence OF origin higher than its
own mediums. Its manifestations have been
crude and trivial. They have never exceeded
the limit of cheap iugglery. They have never
for knowledge of world outside Of their own.
They have revealed proof of the greater intelli
gence which it would be natural to attribute to
disembodied souls. The spirits Of just men
made perfect could never be guilty OF the quack
cry which has been praeticed In the name Of
SpiritualisIn.

civilized world. Your mothers and
Rrandmothers never thought of using
anything else for indigestion or bill

they seldom heard of appendicitis,
nervous prostration or heart failure,
etc. They used August Flower to
clean out the system and stop fer

the nervous and organic action of

A glance disclosed the fact THAT he

Change of Pasture.

A correspondent Of the wisconsin
Agriculturist says that three or four
times the past season he has changed
his cows from the home pasture to an
other about mile away. He thinks
the latter pasture has the best grass or
certainly has the most feed. and it Is
equally as well shaded and watered as
the other. yet in two or three days aft
er they are put there he finds a very
marked shrinkage in the milk product,
and he cannot account for it excepting
that it is caused by the travel to and
from the pasture morning and night.
He believes that cows will voluntarily
take but very little exercise, in which
opinion he differs from those who fear
they will suffer If they are not turned
out every day In the winter. We be-
lieve that one-half If not more of those
who advocate this idea Of the need Of
exercise do so because they do not
want to exercise themselves by clean
ing out the stables after the cattle
have stood in them. e....r

French and English Diaries.

Nothing can look more inviting than

ter, and there is glamour of romance
about the green meadows and gray
heaths of the Cotes du Nord and the
Morbihan, says the London Saturday
Review But we do know something
Of those Breton homesteads, of the
cesspools whence the water is drawn
for domestic and dairy use and of the
filthy raiment that is seldom changed
and of the hands that are never wash
ed except of a Sunday or saints day. A
deeper depth still is the unwholesome
margarine, its substructure being ram
cid animal fat fermented in loathsome
heaps, but scented with the sweetest
fragrance of the meads and cOlOred to
reflect the seductive Tints Of meadow
sweet and buttercups. Contrast mod
ern English methods with those abomi-
nations which under the guise Of legiti-
mate trade suggest the >subtle atrocities
OF the Borgias and the BrinTilliers.
For they sow the seeds of fatal disease
in many an unsuspecting household
and are answerable for infanticide on
a scale from which Herod would have

UNCLE SANS CHEESE.
MOST FANCY BRANDS NOW MADE IN
AMERICA.

Our Dairymen Prefer TO Make the
Kinds That Cure Quickly and Find
q Ready Market - Domestic Soft
Cheeses and Limburger.
The New York state agricultural de-
partment furnishes some interesting
information about cheese making. The
foreign trade Is one of great impor-
lance to the cheese makers Of this
country. although far from being as
important as it was years ago. The
year 1880 was the year of high tide in
our exports Of cheese, which rose at
that time to 14S,OO0.0OO pounds. Since
then Canadian exports have increased
and those of the United States have d.
minished until in the year ending April
80, 1899, they amounted in round num-
bers to only 24,OOO,OOO pounds. Last
year, however, they rose to 30,O00,0O
pounds, and the result was that the
cheese market was higher and makers
were more prosperous than for a num-
Der Of years previously. In the present
season, from May to Sept. %. there
have been exported S.241.OOO pounds
I1ore than in the same period last year,
and prices have averaged still better.
In fact, a good foreign demand in the
spring and summer Is pretty sure to
mean prosperity to the cheese dairy
men, as those are the seasons of heav.
lest production and lightest, consump.

ton in, this country, and it would be
difficult to dispose OF the stock without
this foreign trade. The export business
virtually sets the price of cheese down
to Sept. 1. Then home trade steps in
and regulates values for the rest of the
season. 49,. ...~
The cheese referred to Is known as
American Cheddar cheese, but there is
a considerable amount of fancy"
cheese also manufactured in the EN-
pire State. The varieties made are
Neuchatel, cream, Brie, D'Isigny,
Hand, Munster. Kummel, Liederkranz,
Kappel. Camembert, English dairy,
Stilton and pineapple. In addition
there is a considerable number of es-
Establishments devoted to the production
of Swiss and Limburger cheese. The
Swiss cheese Is only a fair imitation of
the real SweitZer and sells at only half
the price of that. But the LiTnburger,
being somewhat milder product than
it's foreign original, suits the taste Of
American Germans better and has al
most wholly driven out the imported
article. The make of. Neuehatel and
cream cheeses is largely in excess of
the other fancy varieties. most Of
which require a long time to cure prop
eriy. This does not suit the impatience
of the American ;dairymen. who wants
his money as soon as he can get it. But
Neucbatel and cream, eeing soft
cheeses, necessarily have to he put on
the market within a few days Of their
production and hence bring in quick
RETURNS.

Army of MfIkera.

It is interesting to note, according to
a publication Of the agricultural de-
partment, that it has required from %
to 81 cows to every 100 Of the popula-
ton to keep the country supplied with
milk, butter and cheese and to provide
for the export Of dairy products. The
export trade has fuctuated much, but
has never exceeded the produce Of 5O0,-
600 cows. With the closing years of
the century it is estimated that there is
one milk cow for every four persons.
This makes the total number Of cows
about 17,5OO,OOO, 100000 Of which are
in the state Of New York. 1t requires
an army of 100000 men working con-
tinuously for 10 or II hours day to
milk the cows kept in the United
States.
