Increase Of Meat Prices in Germany.
United States Consul John E. Kehl.
reports that butchers, associations IN
Germany have, within the past two
months, held many meetings to devise
= means OF stopping the continual de-
crease In the supply OF live stock
available. This scarcity exists
throughout the whole empire. natur
ally Increasing the price Of meat, In
Berlin for the month Of June, 1902
there was a deficit Of 1854 head Of
cattle (slaughtered), as compared
with the same month In 1901. For
the last half OF August (from the 18th
to the 30th) there was a general de.
crease Of 22,566 head of slaughtered.
STOCK, as compared with the same
period Of 1901. These figures are
taken from the Allgemeine Fleisch.
erzeltung. The decrease Of available
STOCK In the Dresden market for the
nrst seven months OF this year, as
compared with the same period of last
year, was: Beef, 2,014 head; swine,
zo,1oo mead; calves, 1856 head; sheep,
1855 head. In Posen, pork is selling
Tor l mark (23.S cents) per pound. In.
| Coblenz, general advance OF 10
p1ennlngs GA cents) was made last
month on all kinds of meats and
| sausages. 1T is safe to say that almost
every city Of more than $4,000 in.
naD1tants has, since the LIST of Jan.
uary OF this year, experienced an in,
crease in the price of meats. From
June, 1900, to June, 1902, the price OF
i've hogs has risen 25.5 per cent. In
laoorlng circles the use of meat, due
TO nigh prices, is diminishing, which
accounts for the gain OF $1,223,716 in
the import Of fresh and smoked fish
and herring, as compared with 1900.

Hauling Milk Over Electric Lines,

s'oN'i9 wink OveF, Electric Lines.
We notice that in some parts OF
the West the farmers are asking the
electric lines to haul milk to market,
1t is evident that this is one of the
purposes to be served by the electric
lines in the future. And why should
they not. They pass through the very
best Of the land, where the soil is
richest and the population densest.
Such is good dairy region, for IT,
farms will be- found to be generally
small and help quite easily obtainab1e.
The only drawback is the necessity for
the farmer to hitch up his horse to
draw the milk to the electric line.
This labor may be lessened by USING
a hand separator and shipping only
the cream. 1t could then be sent for.
ward every day, and no excuse would
remain for it arriving at the factory
IN sour condition. Up to the pres.
ent time most of the electric lines run.
ming through the country have con.
tented themselves with carrying pas.
sengers, but it would certainly be
great step in advance to provide facil.
tiles for the transportation of much
OF the products of the farm.

Care Of Milk and Cream.

From, Farmers Review: I beg the
privilege of saying a few words re-.
garding what H. Il. Wright said in
the Review Of March 4th, 1903, page
1854, on Scare of Milk and Cream" !
would suggest that before setting the
milk In tanks OF cold water or as soon
as possible after drawn from COW,
that it be run over a good cooler and
aerator, which is machine having
cold water circulating through it, as
the milk runs down over the outside;
which allows the gases and bad odors
that may have been taken up by the
milk while being drawn from the cow
pass of, as the cold water has a tend.
ency to drive it out of the milk. II
the aeration is done in a place where
the air is pure, the milk will be in
almost the same Identical condition it
is as it leaves the udder of the cow,
only it will be cold instead: OF warm.
It is necessary to use water that is
at least so to IS degrees Fahrenheit,
and the cooler Should, be- such that 1t
will reduce the milk within degtee
or two of the water temperature, sas
there are different makes Of coolers
and all won't do it by just running the
milk over it once; but there are some
that will. AS long as the milk re-
mains below so degrees, the germs
that destroy or sour the milk can't
work or multiply; but above 70 de.
grees they increase very fast, and milk
is often several points spoiled before
it reaches the creamery and can't be
detected by the smell or taste, and it
is taken in as sweet milk when it is
not, and thus the keeping qualities Of
the butter cheese, cream or whatever
product is turned out by the factory, is
injured.-J. S. Rayl, Marion County,
Ohio.

"EliZ abeth >

The narrow, hot, sitting concert
hall was filled to. overlooking with
the class of people who follow in the
wake Of the song-and-dance girl in
the far West, paying lavishly for the
entertainment furnished by weak,
unmusical voice singing to the &C.
compartment of wheezy piano or a
discordant fiddle called by courtesy
violin. On this occasion the audi
ence, composed mostly of miners and
cowboys, were treated to a surprise,
for the girl who sung and danced was
both young and pretty, with less
rouge and more natural charms than
any of her predecessors in the con-
cert hall stage.
She could sing, too, and that with
out straining her voice into dis
cordance, and she danced the most
difficult fancy dances with grace
and intelligence that showed not only
superior training but an artistic con-
ception Of it's value. And her stage
by-play and side coquetries were as
ehusive and harmless as those of a
child. The too vivid color of her yell
low hair was undoubtedly due to
chemicals, but it was one strong con-
cession to the tastes of her audience.
She was billed as THE Girl With the
Yellow HAIR and tried faithfully to
live up to her reputation.
She was singing, with quaint
humor that had serious side to it,
popular travesty, dancing down the
rude platform stage between the
lines:
I ANY old place under my hat
Is home, sweet home. to me-"
! AS she danced to the edge of the
stage she stopped singing and for a
moment stood poised motionless on
the tips of her slim, we'll formed feet,
her face rigid like a mask, quick
look of terror in her eyes. A man,
roughly dressed, with his trousers
tucked into his boots, had just enter
ed the place. He carried a buggy
whip in his hand, and was greeted
with cries of est down." "Stop inter-
ruptin the singin'," and thankful for
the diversion of this criticism, 1.-The
Girl With the Yellow Hair" started
her song anew and sung with so
much spirit and charm that she was
wildly applauded and danced of the
stage kissing her hand with inimita-
BILE grace to her fascinated audience,
who encored her rudely and loudly,
only to be told by the manager that
she would not appear again.
She had retreated tc the back of
the hall to an alcove that served as
dressing-room, where the man who
had disturbed her singing found her.

OF farms in Illinois reporting dairy

The Illinois cows average only asa

Minnesota has 1852 cows; prod.

New Hampshire has 115,036 COWS,

! ind that in our state the three
principal counties are McHenry, with
1888 farms, having 1888 cows, val
ued at $2,243,974, an average Of $43
per COW; Cook, with 4,491 farms, on

and Kane, with 2,163 farms, on which
are 42,744 cows valued at $2,177, 2S9, an
average Of $50 per COW. It is gen.
orally accepted that it costs $50 and
over to- feed a cow year. In Mr..
Glover's work Of testing and keeping
records for one year of over three
hundred cows, he finds the extreme to
be: One cow charged $2.07 to make
100 pound; of milk, or So cents for
one pound Of butter fat. The best
COW 20 cents for 100 pounds of milk,
or 6-10 cents per pound of butter fat

The Home Market for Meat,

George T. Thompson says: Although
1t is always impossible to know the
extent of the home market for live
stock and their products, all agree to
the proposition that the home market
Is the best market. Certain features
OF the live stock trade may be shown
very easily, but to give figures con-
corning the markets as whole is not
possible. Such a statement would
necessitate, not only an annual emu
meration Of live stock, but a record of
animals slaughtered on the farm and
In the village, town, and city. The
census reports Of 1900 are helpful to
some extent, in that they give the
value Of the animals sold Qess the
number purchased) and the value. of
those slaughtered; but there is moth
ing to show how much of these values
represented cattle, or how much rep
resented sheep, hogs, and horses. It
Is interesting nevertheless, to know
that the farmer of the United States
disposed Of live stock in 1899 to the
value OF $732,913,114. This repre-
sents the net sales, as the value of any
animals purchased were deducted from
the value of those sold. During the
same year there were slaughtered up
on farms animals having total value
OF $189, 873,310. In other words, ev-
cry person engaged in agricultural
pursuits who was ten years of age or
older, consumed meat worth $500
during the year 1899. At this rate of
consumption, the producer Of live
stock should have received from the
people of the United States, who were
ten years of age and older, including
themselves, the enormous sum of ST.
060,S20,00o. The records, however,
show that the combined value of the
live stock slaughtered on the farm
and that sold off was but 1912, 7S6,424.
or $148,033,576 less than the above
amount, showing that the producer
consumes much more meat than the
people engaged in other vocations and
is therefore his own best customer.
