skill In Milking.

Milking is an operation which re-
ouires skill. as it has an important eff
feet on the amount and quality of milk
given. Dairymen know that there are
as great differences between mixers
as between cows and that COWS will
do much better with good mixers than
with others. Indeed. good cows are
often almost ruined by poor mixers.
The mixer should avoid handling the
COW more than is necessary. ana he
shouId make it a rule to do his work
quickly and thoroughly. He should
never 90 from sick to well COW
without first cleansing his hands. The
habit of wetting his hands with milk
is filthy in the extreme and should
never be practiced. Some people think
II necessary, but this is a mistake
The hands should be kept dry. II they
are not. it is impossible to prevent
drons of milk from constantly raining
from them into the pail
The pail should be held close to the
udder. SO as to expose the milk TO the
air as little as possible. The farther the
streams fall and the more they spray
+ha more dirt and bacteria they collect.
Contamination from the fore milk must
he avoided by aiscarding the first few
streams drawn, or less than gill in
ali This entails little loss, as the first
milk drawn is always poor in butter
fat and if it happens to be badly con-
taminated, as is frequently the case,
much injury and trouble may be saved.

has fallen off somewhat on account of
the increase of 2 cents, and some deal

the California bushel box In packing
he graded to three sizes and packed the
sizes to fit the box, tiering the different
sizes to fit the boxes. AS they were red
apples he used white paper and put it
only in the bottom of the box, letting
it come about half way up on the sides
of the box. After the box was filled the
bottom was nailed on, the box turned
over and marked for the best apples
XXX, those next smaller Xxx. and the
smallest ones Y. In shipping three
boxes were counted to the barrel, and
in figuring the price per barrel three
bushels were counted per barrel.
In boxing white apples this shipper
would use some bright colored paper,
as a red, blue or green. 1t may be well
in boxing a red apple to use a clear
white or bright yellow.
Many times people living in the
crowded city have not the room for a
barrel of apples, but they could put a
box in the corner or some out of the
way place, or if they could not afford
to buy a whole barrel they could buy
box, and there are many people thus
situated financially, enough of them to
consume many hundreds of barrels in a
season, and thus almost open up new
market for US. 1t is more work. be-
cause they have to be graded carefully
in order to pack nicely, but not as much
trouble as one would suppose. After
you get used to it it can be done quite
rapidly. The cost of the box is about
the same as barrel.

The Line of Beauty.

Many mistakes are made in locating
walks and drives about our homes.
The curved line is not used enough or
it is unappropriately used. In many of
our rural homes straight walk is the
only walk we find. A straight walk is
the only kind that is permissible, peo-
pie often think, yet there are many
cases where simple curve could be in
troduced with very great effect. AS
the poet says, Straight is the line of
duty; curved is the line of beauty" and
wherever it is possible to introduce a
curve we are gaining that much more
toward ornamentation. If the distance
from the street to the house is not more
than ten feet, straight walk is imper-
alive, and it may be at 20 feet, although
at that distance a curve may be made
possible by placing our entrance not
directly in front of the door, and then
by slight bend the walk is made more
effective. particularly if there is a
slight elevation coming from the street.
Sometimes we can introduce a flower
bed as a reason for the making of a
curve or plant tree or shrub.

the way This Poison Acts Upon the
Human System.
When single dose of arsenic in suf-
ficient quantity to be felt has been tax
en-, colicky pains, bowel disorder and
of an hour after a poisonous dose has
been taken an intense burning pain is
felt in the esophagus and stomach.
This spreads to the entire anterior por-
ton Of the lower part of the trunk A
sense of construction at the throat and
an acrid, metallic taste accompany the
pain. Then vomiting and relaxation of
the bowels begin. AS the case pro-
crosses the symptoms increase in in
tensity. Then comes thirst that wa
ter will not allay, although it appar-
emily increases the stomach disturb
ance. The victim groans and writhes.
Now he implores the doctor to save
him. Then he begs to be killed and put
out of pain. The extremities become
icy. The pulse is small, feeble and fire.
Quent. and the breathing is labored,
embarrassed and painful because Of
abdominal tenderness. The surface of
the body becomes dark and of that
blush color that medical men call cy-
anosed. Violent cramps add their tor
ture, exhaustion becomes collapse, con-
vulsions Or coma ensues, and death
ends the agony. This torture lasts
sometimes from five to twenty hours.
In some cases these symptoms occur,
but in modified form, and the doctor
will apparently get the better of the
disease. The remission will be but for
a day or two Then the abdomen will
swell, and icy GOODNESS will pervade
the frame. Shivering will become pro-
nounced trembling, then cramps, con-
vulsions and death.

The experiments with two eye and
one eye scions were, on the whole, in
favor of the use of two eyes.
The difference between callusing the
CRAFTS in sand and planting them di-
rectly in the nursery as soon as made
was very striking. Those previously
callused produced 81 per cent of good
unions, while the others produced but
26 per cent. There was also a differ
vor of those callused in sand.

Improvement of Soils.

Any scheme of rotation should have
the growing of at least one leguminous
crop in its plan. By this means large
gains of nitrogen may be made from
the air. Potash and phosphoric acid,
unless already in the soil, must be sup
piled by commercial fertilizers. In the
case of very poor soil it is not advisa
BILE to remove the crops unless the ma
nure is returned until a fair state of
fertility has been reached. Stock rails
ing, dairying and poultry raising are
profitable lines of agriculture to carry
on in a scheme for improving the fer
tility of poor soils.

Canaries, like human beings, vary
very much in character, some cocks be-
ing so Indifferent and idle that they
will let the hen do all the work of
building and rearing, while they them
selves sit and plume their feathers.
Others, again, are perfect gentlemen in
their manners, waiting on the hen with
a quiet courtesy and seeing that all she
requires is at once brought to her.
Again, the hens vary in disposition,
some hens behaving in a quiet, modest
way, attending to their young ones
with regularity, while others are in a
constant state of chatter with their
husbands, pecking and arguing with
them every time they go near. Thus
we see that these little birds have their
tiffs and domestic quarrels, not unlike

Representative Henry, of Connecticut,
who, next to Chairman Wadsworth, is the
ranking member of the House Agricultural
Committee, says that the committee perfect
ed bill restricting the sale of oleomargar-
inc which it would ask the House to refer
to the committee and which it would report
in place of the circuit bill. The new bill
contains some important features not inclu-
ded in the measures which have been
referred to the committee, notably clause
which defines any person who eolors oleo-
marine and then sells it, as manufacturer
and subject to the same restrictions. Mr..
Henry said that it was common practice
in Denmark for the retailer to furnish
coloring matter to customers purchasing
oleomargarine so that the addition of the
color made itperfectly feasible for the hotel
proprietor, clearinghouse landlord, etc.,
to place upon the table product which his
customers could not detect from genuine
butter.
