BEWARE OF THE PRIMARY.

The same people that urged a
primary year ago are urging 1t
again this year. and for the same
reason. The primary object of the
movement is to defeat Lsdbetter
for city marshal, but back of all
this is the consuming desire of GER
tain parties to hold the mayor'r
office and control the city council
The experience Of last year ought
to be sufficient to prove that those
who are strenuously opposing
Ledbetter, will not abide the ac
.tion of the primary. Nearly one
hundred voters bolted the pri
mary last year and will do so
again il it does not go to suit them.
They voted against Ledbetter in
the primary and again in the cleo
ton.
The effort that is now being
made to ride into the mayors OF
flee at the expense of Ledbetter is
peanut politics and has IN no
sense the welfare of the town at
heart.
This is free country and every
man who wants to lun for Office
has that privilege, but to ask the
democratic party to become a cats
paw in an emergency like this, il
contemplate. 1t is the heighth
of folly for democrats and repub-
licans to array themselves against
each other where party principles
are not involved.
Such a primary as was held last
year has 10 right to call itself the
democratic party and il would be
q misnomer to do so The better
element of this town wants Led
better for marshal, regardless Of
political afiiiiation, and any move
ment that tends to lessen his
chances is against the interests Of
the town

MAKING

The amount of cheap cheese made
and put on the market should not be
judged by the skim and part skim milk
cheeses. These latter are made for a
distinct purpose, and there is wide
market for them, says e. S. Warren
ton in American Cultivator. Cheese
makers use skim and part skim milk
with full knowledge that the results
will be of certain inferior character,
and the cheese is so marked when sent
to market. The makers are satisfied
if they get few cents pound.
But inferior cheese made from full
cream milk and spoiled in the curing,
keeping or some other way is direct
loss TO the maker. The trouble is some
thing that should be averted by follow
ing carefully rules that have been dis
covered through years of study and ex-
pertinent. There are of course many
reasons why cheese does not come out
satisfactory when good full cream milk
is used. Off flavor of cheese Of this
character is frequently due to lack OF
acid in the cheese or to hot curing
rooms. In the trade such cheese has
such u strong odor after being kept a
short time that it is marked down
heavily. The remedy is to see that the
temperature of the curing rooms is bet
ter regulated and in preventing acidity.
This latter is generally due to hastiness
in making. When the cheese is made
every other day, too much starter is
used, and the attempt to hurry the
| work causes the trouble.

THE GRASS CROP.
Cutting and Curing to Insure Good,
Bright Hny.

Bright HAY.
Considering the value of the grass
crop in this country many of us do not
give the care we should to securing it.
Many tons are put into the barn every
year in such a condition that it Is not
fit to. feed to any animal. Horses are
especially susceptible to the i'll effects
Of feeding musty hay.
One of the first essentials to success
in cutting and curing grass is that we
should be ready to begin moving when
the grass comes into the first bloom.
Then the stalk is sweet and full of rich
juices. Later in the season these juices
harden and turn into woody fiber that
makes the stalk harder to chew and
much more difficult to digest than if it
had been cut in time.
From the Goth Of June to the 4th Of
July, then, according to ones geo.
graphical location, we should begin
cutting our timothy. Starting out with
the mower in good condition when the
weather bids fair to be good, cut down
as much grass as may be put in the
next day in the afternoon with the
force at command. Begin slowly and
carefully. The teams will be fresh and
not hardened to the steady work In the
hot sun. The grass cut down in the
morning of the first day should lay out
In the sunshine until the afternoon of
the same day Then start the rake.
Men may follow at once, putting the
windows into cocks. which ought not
to be too large at this season of the
year.
If the sky is fair and the likelihood is
for good day tomorrow, no particu-
lar care need be given to the method
of putting up the hay. In threatening
weather the matter presents differ
ent phase. Every haycock should be
shaped, so far as possible, to shed wa
ter. The hay should not be rolled. 1t
must be stacked up. one forkful placed
carefully on the top of another and
pressed down compactly. The top
should be quite sharp. Hay thus ar
ranged will stand rain well.
The next day start the mower again
in the morning. When the dew is off,
set men to opening out the haycocks
put up the day previous. The hay
should be spread out thin. SO that air
and sunshine can freely circulate
through it. By 2 o'clock of a bright day
this hay will do to draw. A couple of
hours later that cut in the morning
may be raked. This is the story of
crop Of good, bright hay.
After the season advances so that the
grass is little ripper if the weather be
fine we may get in in the afternoon of
the same day the grass cut in the
morning. But at first good hay cannot
be secured in any better way than that
herein described. Such hay will keep
indefinitely and come out as bright as
dollar, according to E. L. Vincent in
Farm and Fireside.

How to Detect AduIteration.

1t is easy to discover whether your
morning beverage is pure coffee or part
chicory. Drop half 4 teaspoonful of
ground coffee in glass Of cold water.
If the coffee is not adulterated with
chicory, it will float on the surface and
the water will be no more than tinged
brown. If sediment sinks to the bot
tom of the glass, that's chicory. The
water will be a reddish brown. Chic
DRY is harmless. Indeed many prefer
a mixture of chicory with the coffee,
ascribing to it peculiar deliciousness.
Coffee is often adulterated with ground
peas or wheat, and these give a fat
ness to the beyerage-a sort of warmed
over flavor. The presence of these
authorizations can be detected by drop
ping little tincture of iodine into a
tumbler of clear, cold coffee. If the
liquid turns a deep blue, there's an adj
mixture of peas or wheat. The iodine
has detected the starch in one or the
other. If the coffee remains its usual
color, you are not paying for either
peas or wheat.

squares of blue and white china are
even framed in black oak and used as
pictures. A new variety of Wedgwood
ware is now being sold very cheap to
satisfy this demand. The plates each
represent scene from one of Scott S
or Dickens novels, and there is a
quaint title in old English lettering.
The illustration shows a hall with
white paneling which is entirely dec
grated with china. The ceiling is tint
ed delicate white and gold; the frieze
is blue and white. At the base of this
is placed a plate rack, on which stand
specimens Of old blue china. At inter-
walls along the walls similar bits of
china are placed. The furniture is
colonial, including a tall grandfather's
clock, fiddle backed chair and a
round mahogany table. There is also
an antique chest bearing few choice
pieces of blue china. The arches of
white woodwork are particularly grace
full and go well with this style of dec
Grafton. A few water color pictures
hung here and there add touches of
color. Any woman for a small sum
could furnish her hall after this fashion.

A Low COST sILo.
Kind of Material Needed and Method
of Putting 1t Together.

6lnQ OF material NGeQS0 ana Metn00
of Putting 1t Together.
A wide diversity of ideas exists as to
what is the best silo. Those factory
made and in sections have been found
to do about what is claimed for them
and are a most desirable silo for the
dairyman who can secure them. Among
those that may be put up at home is
the round stave silo, one of the cheap
est sorts, and if it We're not liable to
collapse on account of shrinkage of the
slaves and expansion of the iron hoops
it would be very satisfactory, says
Farm and Home.
Several of late have used wooden
hoops which cannot shrink or lengthen
endwise. The inside sheeting is of one
inch Georgia pine, which does not
shrink. 1t is so full of pitch that mois-
ture has practically no effect upon it.
The foundation of this style silo is in
its wooden hoops six inches wide and
made of half inch elm lumber sprung
around form and built up with well
Tapped joints, using a trifle longer nail
each time until the hoop has thick
ness for the three bottom hoops of five
layers. The remaining five top hoops
require only four layers each. The av-
erage silo will not require more sthan
500 feet of lumber and 20 pounds of
nails for the hoops, which are easily,
and quickly made and should not'cost
more than $1.25 each, or $40 for the,lot.
This is a good deal less than the cost
of the usual iron hoops and Tugs. A
three cornered frame is erected at the
exact outside circumference of the silo
and the hoops placed in position and
fastened. :
The lining of the silo is then put ION
and should be of inch Georgia pine
lumber three inches wide,, matchediand
nailed to the hoops the same as the
flooring. When the lining is on within
twenty inches of the starting place, put
in 2 by studding up and down be-
tween the hoops on each side of the
door for door stays and jambs. Make
the doors of the same lumber las the
walls, cutting them into joints ION the
inside of the hoops.
If the silo is outside the barn,s1t can
be covered with tarred paper and,cheap
siding run both up and down as pro-
lection against frost. The roof and
foundation are the same as for any silo.
and the outside covering could be of
any sort the owner wished, or it might
go without siding, the same'as any 9TH
er tub silo. If protected from the
weather, the wooden hoops should last
for years, and if at any time the inside
lining became ''dozy" it might be lined
with tarred paper and then sheeting,
thereby making it seryiceable again for
a number of years,at small cost.

object to the fold in the sleeve wher

by rubbing with a damp cheesecloth
and pressing out with small iron.
Before ironing the front of the waist
stretch into shape, having the front
plat very straight. If there are tucks
smooth them out evenly and iron Oh
the right side until dry. Then iron the
back and finish the bottom of the
waist. If parts Of the waist have be-
come tumbled after ironing, smooth out
quickly with hot iron. Fasten the
collar band and the cuffs with stud
or pin, and dry thoroughly before fold
ing.
Pique waists should be ironed on the
wrong side, excepting the sleeves, and
on well padded ironing table, SO that
the cords will stand out well. If the
cuffs be desired very stiff, place them
on a clean board and with the hand
rub in a thick cooked starch until the
Innings and the outside of the cuffs are
as one piece; then wipe superfuous
starch from both sides of cuffs and
dry. Let stand in the dampened body
of the waist under pressure for about
half an hour before ironing.

Cooking Glover Green.

In dry weather clover hay is easily
made. There are various ways, all of
which have their advocates. The only
point is not to let the leaves become
brittle, as they will when exposed
many hours to the sun. But when a
week of threatening weather comes in
with the full bloom of the clover the
outlook for good feed formerly seemed
dark enough. Now it is known that the
thing to do is to keep the mower going
between showers and to keep the cl0-
Yer cooked up closely after the mower
not more than one to two hours expo
sure in the swath. This secures wilt
ing and nothing more. If the clover
be partly cured before being put into
the cock, it will neither turn water nor
remain bright, but green clover barely
wilted will lie snug, and it will gener-
ate heat to throw off the moisture and
cure itself. If the cocks are made large
and pointed at the top, they will burn
at center and top, running the hay, and
it follows that the cocks should be
made small and fiat on top. Three
feet in diameter and three feet high is
about right.-Farm and Fireside

Eggs or Poultry,

We have within the last six months
asked half a dozen or more commercial
poultrymen to give us their opinion as
to the relative profits of producing eggs
or poultry for market.
The invariable reply has been that
eggs are more profitable than poultry.
This is our view of the matter and
has been for good many years. this
opinion having been based on long con-
tinued tests.
The egg farmer necessarily has a
considerable quantity of poultry to sell
in the shape of surplus cockerels and
hens that are old enough to be dis
pensed with.
While this poultry may be dispensed
with at a profit, the profit is not as
large as that derived from the produc-
tion Of eggs under fairly favorable con-
ditions.
The production of hens that will pro-
duce large number of eggs is very
profitable business, aud poultrymen
cannot do better than to begin estab-
fishing strains Of this kind.
The trap nest will furnish the proper
evidence Of prolificacy and so far is
the only means by which this can be
secured.-Commercia Poultry.

THE CIRCULAR DOOR.

and closed with ease, no matter what
the weather may be. The entrance
hole to the coop should be circular and
about ten inches across. while the door
must be about an inch larger. with one
side pear shaped. in which to bore the
hole for the bolt on which the door is
hung.
The door rests on cleat, the upper
side of which just fits the side of the
door. Mr.. Moore has used these doors
double on some of his coops, one inside,
the other out. thus giving greater pro-
lection to the inmates, especially in the
fall and winter months. In freezing
weather the outside door might stick
to the cleat, but this trouble can be
avoided by driving two shingle nails or
screws on each side of the cleat for the
door to rest on. To insure the easy
working of the door it would be well
to put washer between it and the side
Of the coop, which will prevent binding

Coneested Crop.

In some cases of crop bound ma
nipulation of the crop may break ur
this mass, and it may be gradually
worked downward to the gizzard. but
the quicker and easier way is to cut
the skin through to the crop, then slip
it little to one side and cut through
the crop and work the material out
with the finger. When this is done and
the skin slips back to it's proper posi-
ton, the two cuts will not correspond.
Then place the hen by herself in com
Portable coop, give her plenty of warm
water to drink and mash of soft food
in small amounts. and it will be but a
few days before the cuts will have
healed, the little blood that starts and
the feathers forming healing plaster
better FOR her than the surgeon could
prepare.-American Cultivator.
