Dairy Experience.

AT the Alabama experiment station
the average percentages of fat left I'm
the skimmilk by the separator, deep
cans and shallow pans were .03, 1.3
and .O6, respectively. Shallow pans gave
decidedly better results than deep cans.
The separator is indispensable to the
dairymen OF the south.
A ration consisting of 9 pounds OF
cottOnseed, 3 pounds OF wheat bran
and 10 pounds OF sorghum hay gave Il
butter practically equal In frmness
and volatile acids To IA butter from q
ration consisting OF 5A pounds OF cot
tOnseed meal, e pounds OF wheat bran
and 10 pounds OF cottonsecd hulls.
Feeding cottonseed and cottonseed
meal to cows on pasture increased the
melting point of the butter 1 TO 3 de-
grees centigrade. Three pounds OF cot
tonsecd meal and pound of wheat
bran gave as hard butter as eight
pounds OF cottonseed meal and pound
OF bran. The volatile acids I'm the but
ter were not materially affected by the
different rations.
In churning experiment OF five
trials the dash churn proved as salts
factory as the barrel churn for churn-
ing whole milk.

THE AIR.
Providence sailors who had been i'm.
pressed from the Nancy Jones year
before and who had just deserted from
the British navy came skulking aboard
and appealed TO the captain for protec-
ton and Il passage home. He was hest
tating, rs he knew that if they were
found aboard his vessel much trouble
would cnSue. when Nancy came on
the scene.
Look here, Israel" she said rs she
brought her hand down on the cabin
table with II slap. them men are To
sail with us or I'll stay behind myself
You amt man if YOU don't hide 'em
away and take EN- back home"
Il want TO. but it'll he an awful
risk" replied Israel
But we don't care for the risks.
Them men are true born Americans
and our nayburs at home. AMI their
wives and children are mournin' for
'em as if dead. They was taken Off
your ship in the first place, and now
your ship shall take 'em back home
again"
That settled it. The dcsertcrs were
slowed away. and in due time the
bark sailed ON her return She was al.
most clear of the English channel,
when she discovered an English rcve-
nue. cutter hearing down upon her.
These light government craft were
often used To board vessels and i'm
press men, as tlIey could dodge about
the channel much easier than the men
of-war.
The cutter was sighted Just after
MONDAY, and her GRAND was guessed
Mt in a moment. She would be sure to
have description of the three desert
ers and would no doubt impress two
or three of the regular crew, even if
she did not take full possession 1t was
no use to spread more sail or to think
OF resistance. The enemy carried a
crew of thirty men and mounted four
guns.
well. Nancy" said Captain Israel.
I'VE shall lose the bark and 30 10
prison, and it's all your dOin's."
Israel Jones don't you boiler before

down the spyglass. How will the Off.

"In this light wind and smooth sea

a notion have you got into your head -
"a good deal of notion You've cot
a hundred pounds of Scotch snuff in
one Of them empty staterooms. The
first thing to do is to get it out on deck.
I also want all the pots and pans and
kettles from the cooks galley"
No one aboard the bark knew Just
what scheme the captains wife had in
mind, but the snuff was brought on
deck and the pungent stuff poured into
vessels placed along the lee side.

A HANDY POULTRY FEED TUB.

lean Agricu'turist correspondent. and
ask permission TO take Il pattern OF

most handy thing l ever used. Twelve
hens can get around one and eat with
outcrowding. They are handy To carry,
either empty or full: fowls cannot roost
on them, consequently they are always

be stacked up I'm n corner out OF the
