A CIew That Failed.

Deductions in the manner Of Sher-
lock Holmes do not always work out
successfully. They did not in a case
reported by the Washington Post. A
group of reporters were talking to-
gether, and one of them, who liked to
play the amateur detective, devoted
part of his time to watching a man
standing some distance away.
"That man used to be in the army"
he said.
"How do you know?"
"See how he puts his hand into his
trousers pocket He lifts up the side
of his coat--look; he's doing it now
instead of pushing the coat back as we
90. He acquired the habit from wear
ing q fatigue coat in the army. A
fatigue coat, you know, is cut square
about the body. To put the hand IN
the trousers pocket one must lit UP
the side"
Some discussion followed, with the
result that one Of tE>- Nporters VOL
unteered to lay their speculations be
fore the stranger. He proved to be g
wealthy real estate dealer. After us
tening to the reporters explanation ne
replied. with much amusement:

KeeDfnr Friends.

There is nothing so very difficult IN
making friends; the trouble is to keep
them. Pleasing manners and taking
way will always win admirers, but a
lasting friendship must be built upon
q firmer foundation than a transitOry
smile, an hour of high spirits or even
great physical beauty. Of course 1t is
q pleasure to feel that one Is favored
by some radically beautiful woman,
but unless there be genuine congenlal-
ity between the two concerned the time
will come when passive loneliness will
cease to be attractive. To retain friend
ship one must be continually on the
watch and not let the familiarity that
comes from a lengthy knowledge OF
the others life breed the contempt that
SO often follows a close intimacy.
To retain either friendship or love
the illusions must not be dispelled. Dc
not, because you feel sure of your
ground, let the commonplace enter IN
and monopolize the everyday affairs
Let the halo of sentiment hover oveI
even the prosaic affairs Of daily Hfe
for, once dispelled, they can never form
again, and in the one glimpse of the
material side of the intimacy may be
utterly destroyed a relation at one
time thought to be eternal

PuIaue and Mescnl.

On the east coast and in the central
provinces of Mexico a drink called
puloue is made from the sap of the
maguey, each plant in its Towering
season yielding roughly about a gal
Ion of sap a day. The sap undergoes
a process of quick fermentation and Is
then ready for sale as pulque, WIS.,
cous, whitish liquor, more supplying
than intoxicating in its effects.
On the west coast, however, the Mex
leans barely even know the name OF
puloue. Not that the west coast peo-
pie are teetotally inclined. On the
contrary, they manage to extract from
the maguey a much more injurious
beverage than pulque, known as mes
cal. To quote one of the sages OF
America. this latter liquor is like
Scotch whisky seven times heated
with the addition of a hot chill, lib
eral dash of fusel oil and small piece
of scrap iron favoring." But mescaI
is really comparatively mild to either
Irwin or teguila, which are also prod
ucts of the prolific maguey.-Cham

Guy H. Miller in Dairy and Produce
Review. makes the statement that the
Jersey COW Gold Drops Maud, dropped
May 26, 1895, has produced during the
year ending Aug. 81, 1899, 7,2661s pounds
of milk. or 5O492 pounds of butter;
during the year ending Aug. 81, 1900,
7100% pounds of milk, or 5O2.S3 pounds
of butter; during year ending Aug.
81, 1901, 7,S31M pounds of milk, or
521.14 pounds of butter, and during
the year ending Aug. 81, 1902, 7,43o9s
pounds of milk. or 5O6.S9 pounds Of
butter, an average for four years OF
1880 pounds Of milk and 50S.02 pounds
of butter. The butter yield has been cal
culated for this statement by adding
16 % per cent to the butter fat as
shown by the Babcock test as taken
twice a month, which is not unfair,
though we would net like to allow
quite as much Overrun as that, for we
think 10 per cent overrun is enough TO
make a butter with full amount OF
butter fat. But she made churn test
/of 1G pounds GR ounces per week as
"a three-year-old. She has gone dry
from five to seven weeks each year,
and has dropped a vigorous, healthy
calf each year during the test She
also took the sweepstakes record as
show cow at the Los Angeles fair last
October.
1t will be noticed that her best rec
ord was made when passing from
five-year-old to siX-year-old, and we
think that is usually the most produc-
tive time for the Jersey. Some other
breeds. if not forced, do not reach their
best until about eight years old, and
even then the best is not large. Ger
tainly, if not the best COW west of the
Rocky mountains, she is a good one. AS
her weight is about 900 pounds, it will
be seen that her production of butter
fat was about half her own weight
each year. AS it costs but little more
to make a pound of butter fat than q
pound of beef how would fattening
even baby beef compare with butter
making from such a COW? Or, reckon
ing butter at 20 cents a pound, she
would give an income of over 500
year, while the cost of her food shoulc
not exceed $50.

THE SEPARATOR.

More COVE.
A separator will pay in any dairy
where butter is made from ten or more
cows. When cream is taken by the
most careful setting of milk. either III
shallow pans or in deep cans, too much
of the butter fat is left in the skim
milk, while a separator will leave
scarcely any. The difference Will in
short time amount to enough TO pay lof
a separator costing from $40 to $l2o'
to say nothing of the increased value
of the skimmilk, while the labor OF run

and all excepting the smallest sizes
are made so that they can be run by
mower when desired. A small tread
power is all that is needed for sepa-
rator capable of handling 400 to 600
pounds of milk per hour, and the run
ming of it is an excellent way to make
the bull pay his board. The use of a
separator effects such great saving
| of ice that it is even more profitable
in the south than in the north, where
! ice is less expensive and cold springs
| are more abundant.
Many dairymen who sell milk to
city consumers find it profitable to use
a separator, not for removing portion
of the cream, but to secure milk which
is of uniform richness and for remoV'
ing any impurities it may contain
Even the finest of strainers fails to re
move dirt from milk as thoroughly as
it is done by a separator, and those
dairymen who furnish the purest an1
most uniform milk will always secure

AN ENGLISH DAIRY SHOhIHOhN'
Shorthorn blood in their herds, but we
do not hear of pure bred dairy Short
horns.
In England the ShOrthOrn has dis
tinctively strong place for dairy pur-
poses, and pure bred ShOrthorn dairy
COWS are not uncommon. friend OF
Dairy and Creamery, who has just re
turned from & trip to England, tells or
500 Shorthorn COWS that he saw in one
herd, the milk being sold in the Lon
don market.
The Kansas Cow.
The Kansas cow is given high praise
in q recent number of the Kansas
Farmer. which puts her productiveness
before the public in a new way. 1t
says:
'The Kansas COW is good for three
square meals day for the next eight
cen months even if it doesn't rain an
other drop. Forage roughness, hay ana
all kinds of fodder are plentiful and
will be for some time, and no matter
what becomes of the wheat ana corn
crop the old cow will be giving down
her milk just as though nothing had
happened.
1.-The thing most needed in Kansas is
a closer organization Of the dairy farm
ers. Every other industry in the state
has close organization, but the farm
ers are as yet in the infancy Of their
work in that direction.
kansas is averaging 5000 gallons Of
milk per minute for every day in the
wear. enough to make river 80 feet
wide and 2 feet deep, flowing at the
rate of a foot per second. This milk
makes about 100000 pounds Of but
ter, worth $12000,000. Within the
next ten years this will be doubled,
perhaps trebled Kansas is capable of
producing 300,000,000 pounds of butter
a year"
Cultures Tor Ripening Cream.
The Ontario Agricultural college has
been testing the use of cultures in
ripening cream, testing 5 per cent, 10,
IS, 20 and % per cent Of the culture.
1t found that the 3 per cent culture
ripened it in fifteen hours and the %
per cent in five hours, but the highest
score for favor was obtained by the
smaller per cent and larger time OF
ripening at a lower temperature. A
culture made at the college of pasteur.
lied skimmilk gave as good results as
one made Of equal parts Of whole milk
skimmilk and buttermilk.
Bad FInvors.
Bacteria that come by the use of de
caying food for cows, dirt and bad
odors may reach the milk and cream. II
is quite easy to have bad flavors. There
are hundred little causes for bad fla
vor, beginning with dirty, invent
lated barn, soiled clothes on attend
ants, poorly ventilated dairy, unclean
ly dairy room or utensils, sour dish
cloths and unared or badly washed
churn, poor water, etc.
