with that saying of George Eliot's
about the folly of expecting trees
Topped of their bravest branches in
youth to be anything but gnarled and
ugly in their old age, she will easily
grow to believe that she is more or
less mutilated and let herself grow
lopsided at her leisure. Self-pity is

any life, when an excuse for all forms
Of self-indulgence and Incidence
stands ready at our elbow, the
chances are a thousand to one that we
will be self-indu1gent and indolent to

Some Wastes in the Creamery.

J. w. Hart: In churning. wastes
occur through imperfect ripening of
the cream, chrrning at improper tenn
peratures and through foul and leaky
churns. Another frequent source of
loss is the energy wastes in badly de-
signed and poorly constructed build
ings. The buildings and machinery
should be arranged with a view to
economic labor. Wooden floors, on
account of frequent renewals and the
difficulty in keeping clean, are too
expensive for creameries Cement
floors are superior in every way. A
wooden floor, no matter how well
built, will settle under the pressure
of q vat of milk and throw the sep
arator out of level, resulting in un-
steady motion, imperfect skimming
and increased wea- on the machine.
Many expensive separators have been
consigned to the scrap pile because
they were not set upon good, solid
foundation and properly taken care

vaseline- II a turbine, the step bear
ing should be taken out, wiped dry.

Water Glass for Keeping Eaas.

The water glass. or soluble glass

druggists, and costs from forty to
sixty cents per gallon. That used in
the tests was of LIP specific gravity.
which in the first series Of tests was
diluted with distilled water to a ten
per cent solution. In practice take one
pint of water glass and add nine pints
OF boiled water. On May 18, 1899, TWEEN
ty eggs Of Leghorn fowls, laid during
the five days from the 18th to 10th of
May. were carefully washed with wa
ter and placed in a stone jar. The
ten per cent solution of water glass
was poured over the eggs until they
were completely covered by the liquid.
The covered jar was placed on the
floor of the cellar colset and left un-
touched until the end of the test,
April 4, 1900. Result: Good, 100 per
cent; bad. per cent. On opening the
jar the water glass was found to have
formed white. gelatinous precipi-
tate, which adhered more or less close
ly to the eggs. The shells of the eggs
were very clean, owing to the alkaline
nature of the solution; the air cells
were not enlarged. Examination
showed the whites of the eggs to be
clear. but not SO limpid as those of
fresh eggs The yolks appeared nor
NAL in color and condition. The taste
of the eggs was slightly fiat, or at
least not perfectly fresh. The eggs
had kept well for a period of ten
months and seventeen days, and
proved to be suitable for culinary use.

The ingenuity of a Yankee in
ventor has devised a use for that
humble and unlovely shrub of the
western deserts known as the
'greasewood." 1t has been found to
contain q gum that affords a valu-
able substitute for rubber. The
method of obtaining tbe gum, which
has been newly patented, consists in
bruising the woody stalks of the
greasewood, soaking them in a solu-
tion of carbon disulphide, and then
drawing off the liquid, which is dis
titled. The chemical used as a
solvent is driven off by heat, and
there remains in the bottom of the
vessel a gummy stuff, flexible and
elastic. Finally, the gummy stuff is
washed and purified, the result be-
ing q very fair substitute for india
rubber-so good, in fact, as TO sug-
gest the notion that some day the
American deserts may be made TO
yield very satisfactory profits in the
production of raw material for gum

M0dish Fabrics for the Seasons
Dresses-Latest styles I'm
Millinery.

Black dress fabrics of every known
weave are to be greatly favored for
the two seasons before Us, and spe-
cial and attractive exhibit of stylish
and elegant black goods, made this
week, included silk warp fabrics as
soft as velvet and : fine as India silk,
mohairs and canvas weaves, wool eta
mines, English whipcords, camel's-
hair scrges, handsome French chew
lots and Henriettas, plain and fancy
brilliantines, drap d'ete, drap d'Alma,
Eoliennes, and gypsy cloths, repped
silk and repped woods in both fine and
heavy cords, new weaves in Carmelite
and double-faced cashmere, and some
handsome novelties with crepe
grounds, in dull black or with mer-
cerized surfaces. Most Of these black
materials are represented in different
qualities and prices, and the English
mohairs. brilliantines and French d.
agonals possess a degree Of durabil-
ity that is unsurpassed by any black
fabrics save English serge, which. how
ever. is less dressy in effect than the
finer woven goods. Many other stand
ard black stuffs indicate an even great
er demand for elegant black fabrics
than was experienced just a year ago
when this color largely prevailed. says

STRTCTER BIRD Law NOW.
The Audubon Society viii warn the Milli.
ners and Game Dealers To-day.


The Audubon Society held public meet :
ing to discuss the subject nearest its heart
last evening n. the American Museum Of
Natural History. William butcher talked
about THE Present Demand for Birds for
Millinery Purposes, and What the Society
Proposes 10 do About It." Mr.. butcher
is chairman Of the society's committee on
avs and said that there was less demand
now than three or four or ten years ago
for birds plumage in millinery. Never
theless, and Notwithstanding the present
stringent laws in New York State. there
were men willing TO deal with the under
current Of demand, and men who couldn't
sell feathers here we're exporting them.
Mr.. Dutcher announced that the society v
would send to-day to every milliner, butcher
and game dealer in New York city circu-
lar calling attention TO the laws oi me
which there is no distinction between
the possession of birds taken within or
without the State.
The law now protects all birds for which
there is no open season and wild birds other
than the English sparrow. crow, hawk,
crow -blackbird snow owl and great horned
owl and the penalty is $50, plus &25. for
each bird or part of bird possessed in
violation Of the statute.
Mr, butcher said that one reason for
sending to-day's notice 10 the butchers
and game dealers was that there had
recently been found 50, 900 non-game birds
in cold storage here. These stored birds
were of the plain sparrow class. the little

who is apparently not afraid of odds when
IL comes TO debate.
The resolution to ndorse had been pre-
sented by the Executive Committee with
recommendations that it be passed.
Lesser. who is member Of the Republi-
can County Committee and represents the
Twenty-frst Assembly dist riot in the G. A.
r. T.. had counter resolution 10 indorse
the nomination Of Hall Steckler.and Amend
for the Supreme Court and not TO indorse
any other candidate, because the G.. A. II.
L.. is not supposed TO meddle in state
politics.
But they wouldn't give Lesser a chance
to offer his resolution. After a dozen or
more had said all they could in favor Of the
Executive Committees resolutions the
fve-minute rule was adopted to shut out
Lesser. Most of the five minutes finally
allotted to him were taken up by others,
who shouted -H'rols NIT him."
The resignation OF Candidate Amend as
president Of the G. A X. T. was accepted
He wrote that he trusted they would see
their way clear to indorse the whole Demo-
cratic ticket.
