GROWING HoRSERADISH.
An Auxiliary Industry by Which
Country Boys and Girls Can
Earn Pocket Money.

A lady reader in Elyria, o., asks how
she should proceed to set out led of
horseradish. She has quite good mar
ket for the grated horse-radish in her
own vicinity. This latter is the case
in many other localities, end it affords
a fine opportunity for any woman or
a bright youngster with an eye to lit
tie extra pocket-money TO secure IL in
rather simple way. Any out.of-the-
way corner, where the ground is rich
and moist, even in the back yard, es-
pecially near sink-tlrain or sewer
pipe, may be made use of for this pur-
pose. One Of the best ways. where one
will take the pains is The "oid coun-
try" style of digging deep trenches.

CHOICE BUTTER FLAVOR.
starters and Due Attention to
the Ripening of Cream.

1t is safe to say that the principal
defect in the quality of Canadian but
ter, as in the butter from any other
country, is in regard to the matter of
flavor, said j. A. Reddick in an adj
dress. The causes which give rise to
this defect are many and not always
easily located, but the buttermaker
has a great advantage over the cheese
maker. inasmuch as he has il within
his power to control the flavor of the
butter to a very great extent by the
use of good favored fermentation
starters" and by proper attention to
the ripening of the cream. His failure
to do this is one reason why the but
ter is often inferior in flavor. Butter
makers must study this queftion of
ripening cream and the use of start
ers." The trouble is that very often
the starter" produces bad flavor in
stead of good one. When the farmer
sows his seed he expects to reap what
he sows. If he sows wheat he reaps
crop Of wheat, but If the grain he uses
is full of mustard seed need not point
out what the result will be. II is not
possible to get fine favored butter
where bad starters are used any more
than it is to get crop of wheat from
the mustard seed. The difficulty is that
many buttermakers apparently do not
know the difference between what is
proper starter and what is not.

ASPARAGUS In WINTER.
How This Splendid Vegetable Can he
Grown Successfully mt All Sea-
sons Of the Year.

II may interest many of your read
ers to hear something further on as
paragus culture. Farmers, especially
gardeners and also gentlemen who
keep up a private garden, can have
abundance of this vegetable during the
winter, and II Is during the winter that
this crop brings handsome return, as
well as being great acquisition for
the gentleman's table.
Passing by Anticipated methods
without comment for the more pro-
gressive by which this splendid vege-
table can be so easily grown, some
idea may be gathered from the cut.
The building may be of any size desired,
and is best heated by steam. Two
houses are shown. Suppose each house
is 300 feet long and SO feet wide, the
alleyway between them provides room
for team to draw manure for bank
ing up the sides and also for convent
ence in the handling of sash.
The advantage gained will readily be
seen. Having run one house half the
winter, the sash are taken from ii and
placed on house No. 2, when the heat
is turned of No. and on to the lat
ter, which should bear until spring.
Such a house need not exceed five feet
in the center; larger space would ne
cessarily entail increased heating. The

paper, stacked in nearby shed when
not in use, will last for many years,
or until the building decays, when the
crop also may begin to flag.

over a well established bed, in making
new beds to build over in the way in

Fairly good asparagus will come along
with very little preparation or care,
but to have tip top bed, it would be
as well that the soil be naturally good,
a yard thick at least. Rich bottom land
full of nitrogen. carted and mixed with
the higher porous soil, will take the
place of manure to some extent, and
is even better than an excess of ma
nure.
This will be found quite expeditions;
plan out the ground to pillow several
times until the pillow beam is down to
the level of the surface, when the
trenches can be made, and the plants

The true dairy cow-one that rs

If the dry cows are inclined to
grow too fat on grass they should
be kept in on dry feed part of the

Let the food supplied right after
calving be light for a few days; never
quite as much rs she wants. Only
tepid water should be given, as cold
water may bring on chill and fever.
The careful dairyman should use a

"The man who devotes his life to

partner of q well-known firm Of art
lists colormen. The printing of the
colored cover of magazine sets thou
sands of unsupported toilers in mo-
ton. The natural earth of Sienna and
Umbria, in Italy, produces the raw

'Sepia' is, Of course, taken from the

ash as we'll as the water are hurried to
the outside of the bowl and in accord
with fundamental law of physics that
mo two bodies can occupy the same
place at the Same time, the fat is forced
out and consequently finds itself near
ing the center of the bowl. There is
gradual condensation of the cream
from the outside to the center. At the
innermost point the cream will contain
nearly 80 per cent. butter fat, gradual
ly decreasing until i'm modern separa-
tor, the skim-milk, which is taken at

The different separators have slight
~ varying continuance for controlling
the density of the cream, but in every
instance the principle remains the
same; when taken very near the center
the volume is less and the fat content
high. The amount of cream may be re-
duced until il cannot escape fast
enough, and so if the milk supply is not
diminished portion Of the fat will
necessarily pass Oft in the skim-milk.
On the other hand, If the cream screw
is changed to increase the volume that
is taking it out nearer to the outside
of the bowl then we are securing
cream of less fat content. and this
permission of increased outflow at the
center of the bowl means more ex-
haustive skimming. Hence to-day the

A MARYLAND wonder.

Never in the history OF medicine in this
state has anything created such a sen

extreme cases as Dodd's Kidney Pills.
This wonderful medicine seems to know
no limit in its wonder working power.
Long-standing cases that have defied the
most expert medical treatment seem to
yield easily to this new, conqueror Of dis
ease.
Hundreds have testified to the virtue
of Dodd's Kidney Pills. They tell of Sc
we're cases of Rheumatism, Lumbago,
Backache, Female Trouble, Nervous Dis
eases and even Dropsy, Diabetes and
Bright's Disease cured by this medicine.
Among those who have been benefited
may be mentioned Mrs. John Cooney of
this place.
Mrs. Cooney says:
Il believe Dodd's Kidney Pills the best
remedy ever known for Kidney Trouble
and weak back.
They are without exception the best
medicine | have ever used.
Il will always praise them highly, for
j know that they are good"
Mrs. Cooney is only one of many who
say of Dodd's Kidney Pills:
