TIMELY DAIRY T

Keep the heifer calves of the good
mixers.
Big pedigree often goes with small
performance.
The activity of milk secretion de-
ponds largely upon the vigor of blood
circulation.
Don't breed your COW downward,
especially if you intend to raise your
own heifers.
After being oiled separators should
be filled with water to see that every
thing is in order.
Damp floors should be avoided in
the dairy, as dampness always tends
to the development and increase of
organic germs.
One advantage with the separator
is that all animal matter, dirt and
impurities L removed from the milk
and will be found sticking to the
outer wall of the bowl.
The ''world-record" COWS are use
full sign boards on the dairy high
ways, They show in which direction
the possibilities and the probabilities
lie, and they give the average dairy
man a mark at which to aim.
Chicago is paying seven cents a
quart for milk. But the man who
supplies the land, COWS and build
ings1 supplies the feed, cares for and
milks the COWS and delivers the milk
to the station gets less than half
of this. There is something very
badly out of joint about this
Prairie Farmer.

she had decided the blushing young
man on his future career and had IN
Willingly laid the Cupid snare that
caught her subsequently and caused
her to walk to the altar with this
young ball player.
Currie had found time from business
to pitch for Muskegon and pitched well.
Appleton needed a winning twirler and
Currie was asked to pitch for the team
that he piloted to the pennant. Sue
cess on the diamond appealed to the
little Michigan lad, but Dame Fortune
had not smiled on him. He was about
to abandon ball playing when Miss
Scherck, a spectator at the game, made
her remarks. "Ill be a winning pitcher
and draw big money" said Cu1rie
after that game. "The girl knows
what she is talking about" And taxi
ing the slab he won II consecutive
games for Appleton and the pennant.
Did he return to Hart, Mich, after the
season closed? No. There were two
bright eyes on Superior street that be-
witched him. He decided to stay in
Appleton until some one in the big
world reached out for him.
The reaching came last season when
the manager of the Cincinnati team,
hearing of the little fellow, engaged
him for the Reds.

Calf Raising Made Easy.

The rapid introduction of the
hand separator is the feature of the
times in the dairy industry. 1t is
largely solving the question of get
ting good skim milk for calf raising,
as well as having other important
advantages. Warm, sweet skim-milk,
separated within a few minutes after
being drawn from the COW is in the
best possible condition for the calf,
and by observing the points men
toned in this bulletin, and as prac-
ticeds by the most successful dairy
men, little trouble will be had in
raising as good calves as are raised
in any way. The majority of those
producing cream Or butter for sale
insist on some means of raising the
calf satisfactorily, and the hand sep
arator seems to fill the want better
than any other system.-Midland
Farmer.

hours in the delivery-and the last
would be as good and sweet as the
first, and not a particle of butter
formed by the rocking of the wagon.
The cylinder filled with ice when the
route was commenced would last for
the five hours in midsummer.
We would milk at 4 a. m. and 3 D.
m, using the morning milk to cream
for the next morning delivery and
the afternoon milk for the morning
sweet milk. On Saturday we made
two deliveries. In the morning we
used the milk of the previous day,
while in the evening we used the
milk as gathered that day. The only
difficulty we found was that we
could not obtain sufficient cream.

they car do so, as no patent is at

SUNDAY MILK PROBLEM,
Inventor OF the Can Here Described
Thinks That He Has Solved
1t Successfully.

The greatest difficulty the milk
man has to contend with is temper
allure. He can handle milk well in
winter, but cannot get such good re-
suits in summer. In the first place,
we must assume that every milkman
has an ice house, and that the milk
is placed in ice as soon as MIXED, be-
cause the germs producing sour
milk multiply rapidly at a tenn
perature above 70 degrees, while at
so or lower they r held in sus-
pense. After much annoyance and
trouble with sour milk I devised a
simple method for controlling it,
shown in the cut. I had made a
cylinder of galvanized iron, same di-
mansions as the mouth of the milk
can, and running through the can to

In this way farmers who have any
old iron get it shaped into plow
points for a small sum-.
Referring to this primitive plow,
Mr.. Henry B. Miller, United States
consul at Niuchwang, says that he
considers China an excellent field for
American agricultural implements.
Any American pillow, however, which
is introduced, he says, must be
cheap, as cheap as it is possible to
make it and so cheap that it would
not be used in the United States"

cauae of mott1ed Butter.

Notified butter is sometimes
caused by the salt not being well
worked into the butter. What are
known as white specks may be due
to setting milk in shallow pans, the
cream drying on the top and becom-
ing hard. Another cause may be the
cream standing too long, curd being
formed in the milk, which becomes
mixed with the butter. This hap
pens mostly when the milk is in deep
pans, and straining is the best
methodo of preventing the difficulty In
both cases.

Peruna is such a perfect specific for
each case that when patients have once
used it they can never be inducedtoquit
it until they are permanently cured. It
begins to relieve the disagreeable
symptoms at once. The backache
ceases, the trembling knees are
strengthened, the appetite restored,
the digestion made perfect, the dull
headache is stopped and the weaken
ing drains are gradually cured. These
results certainly follow a course of
treatment with Peruna.

Keep the Balance Up.

1t has been truthfully said that any
disturbance of the even balance OF
health causes serious trouble. No
body can be too careful to keep this
balance up. When people begin to
lose appetite, or to get tired easily,
the least imprudence brings on sick
ness, weakness or debility. The sys-
tenn needs a tonic, Graves it, and
should not be denied it; and the best
tonic of which we have any knowledge
is Hoods Sarsaparilla. What this
medicine has done in keeping healthy
people healthy, in keeping up the even
balance of health, gives it the same
distinction as a preventive that it en-.
joys as a cure. It's early use has H.
lustrated the wisdom Of the old saying
that stitch in time saves nine. Take
Hoods for appetite, strength, and en-.
durance.

Increased Revenues.

1t is estimated therevenue bill passed
at the recent session of the Legislature
will increase the State revenue over
$100, 000 The loss from the towns
which have taken advantage of the Adj
ans law will be about $95, 900, but this
will be made up in the cities of over
5000 population, where the tipplihg
license was increased from 5000 to $3.50
per annum. The general appropria-
tion bill for the next two years calls
for SO, 455, 456. 80. The only material
increase is that of 100000 for PEN
sions. The legislative and miscellan-
oous appropriation bill carries over
$l00, 900 more. The state will have to
carry its own insurance on buildings
aud property of state institutions, the
present policies being cancelled as fast
as they expire.
The State labor and mining bureau
gets $4,000 per annum, whereas
"a, 900 was the appropriation two years
ago. The increase of $4, 1893 in the Ma
tional Guard appropriation will enable
the state to help pay armory rents.
