Why the Creamery PAYS.

In the days of our forefathers, when
creameries were unknown, the milk
was set III cold water or the cellar, and
the cream allowed to rise. Most of
the cream used on the farm to-day is
obtained by this method What causes
the cream to rise is difference in
specific gravity or weight of it and
the rest of the milk. In the cream
separator centrifugal force is used in
stead of gravitation. The force APP
piled in the separator bowl the manu-
featuring companies claim to be seven
hundred times as great as the force of
gravitation, and thus you see why the
skim-milk from the separator contains
a smaller percent of butter fat than
the skim-milk Grom which the cream
has been allowed to rise. and this is
one reason why it is more profitable to
patronize a creamery than to make the
butter on the farm Another thing to
be considered is that the creamery
man. being skilled in the art of max
ing butter. is able 10 make better
article than as rule is produced on
the farm and then he can ship it
where it will command the highest
price. while the farmer has to sell at
local prices. which is usually several
cents below creamery prices.

It on the Castilian government Minister
Woodford made an offer to purchase the
island without the knowledge or sanction
of this government. This the Madrid
government was TOO proud TO accept. Min
lister Woodford is denounced throughout
the letter
1.-THE advocates of war were willing to
wait the answer of Spain to a request
made as condition of peace that she
should yield independence to Cuba. But
they could not learn that any such re-
quest had been or would be made. In
fact, it never was made.
in all the correspondence between
Washington and Madrid the principal de-
mand of the United States was only for
peace. 1t shows throughout that Min
lister Woodfqad naa a plan of his own
for settling the troubles and not in ac-
cord with that of the State Department,
which was the granting of independence
to the island.
mo one in the Senate knew that the
demand for sale of Cuba was being
made-unless it was Senator Teller, who
seems to have known it when he insisted
upon inserting in the declaration of war
4 clause pledging the United States in
favor of Cuban independence"
Mr.. Woodford rises with the prompt
rejoinde, shat he never was instructed to
demand independence, that such was im-
possible under the Spanish constitution
without prior sanction of the Cortes. He
also says that the idea of purchase was
never in the remotest way suggested to
him; that of his own accord he sounded
one or two persons in Madrid ON the mat
ter, and found it to be as impossible as
the suggestion for independence.

A Grindstone.


Some one writes to the American
Blacksmith to tell how he used dis
carded bicycle to drive a grindstone.
He removed the top brace of the frame
and stapled the front to stout post.
The near support was constructed from
2 by inch timber, and the frame
braced below. The sprocket of the rear
wheel was removed by cutting its
spokes. and then mounted on the same
shaft as the grindstone. To do this he
filed the hole in the stone with a piece
of wood. and bored a hole in the latter
of the same size as that in the sprocket.
OF course. his axle would then bit both.
1t appears that the chain he used was
made up of two. One was not long
enough. The axles were mounted with
ball bearings, and the stone can be
driven at lightning speed with little
trouble.

An Irish government with power TO ac-
cumulate arms and ammunition, he said,
would constitute more serious threat
than had the Beers. While the orthodox
leader of the Liberal party had declared
hiin self in favor of home rule, the semi
orthodox leader Of that party, whose ut
terances were harder to interpret, while
he had not pledged himself TO home rule,
had studiously avoided any pledge from
which the contrary might be inferred.
Referring to the Dutch offer of media
ton in the Boer war, Lord Salisbury
said:
There is no longer any question Of
sentiment. We have entered upon
matter of business which we must push
through. What we are now Seeking Is
security. Any peace which recognizes
fully The rights of the sovereign and
gives us security for the empire we
should accept. not only with willingness
but with delight
1T is useless to tell us to behave so
as to leave a pleasant recollection in the
minds of those with whom we are fight

which the ambition Of Mr.. Kruger has
poured this abundance of sorrow and des-
olation"

The bright, laughing water sang on
through the grass, and it seemed to her
that it whispered:
Love, love, nothing but love-"
The sound was so pleasant to her, she
laughed aloud in her glee.
Love, love, nothing but love-" she re-

The little bird looked down with in
finite wisdom in its bright blue eyes, and
it seemed to her that the burden of its
sang was:
Title and gold, title and gold.'
"That would be very pleasant" she
said, gravely, as though the little bird
had spoken as an oracle; 'but | like love

The brook sang, the leaves rippled, the
birds poured out rich, clear melody, the
golden sun shone, the flowers shook their
ting blossoms, the wind danced over the
shining grass, while the girl sat by the
water-side dreaming of the lover to come.
The singing waters gave her no warn
ing, they did not say that true love was
a rose surrounded by sharp thorns, that
love brought more pain than pleasure,
that love was a tragedy. The bright
eyed birds did not tell her how often
women's hearts were broken, and that
love was often the crown of sorrow.

can the ensilage. and that there is
more apt to be crop failure from
