spine, but does force the cow to draw
back instead of pushing ahead; thus
the gutter back of the COW catches
the filth and the floor remains clean.
There is no rule to give for the ex-
act placing of the structure, as diff
ferent breeds of cattle differ so in
height and length; however, piece No.
2 should be located just back of upper
point of shoulders, and from one and
one-half to two inches above the back.
This gives a chance for free movement
and in no way interferes with the com
fort of the cow. My COWS are Jerseys,
and frame is just 20 inches from
stanchions. No. 1 is a block on
which to fasten No. 2. No. 8 is the
upright which should extend to the
joint above, and there be fastened. No.
4 is a brace for the support of the
frame, and should be nailed very firm,
as the COW will break the trap if she
can. No. S is the gutter.-Orange Judd

/ AND LIVE STOCK.

Some dairymen spend enough time
weeping over spilled milk to buy a
whole cow.
The American hog has rooted his way
into nearly every corner of the civil
lied world. No country dare go to
war without him.
If you do not know anything about
sheep, don't start with over ten. You
will lose enough on these ten, if you
are not a sheep man by instinct.
Never allow anyone to tease of tickle
your horse in the stable. The animal
only feels the torment, and does not
understand the joke. Vicious habits
are thus brought. on.
It is about an even thing to-day
whether you raise a good steer or a
good colt; each will sell for about the
same price when two years old. There
is more risk with the colt, however.
The disputes between the cattle and
the sheep men which are becoming so
serious in many parts of the west are
no new thing. Abraham and Lot had
the same old trouble. Where sheep
live cattle starve.
The fat cow which is fit for the block

THE BATH.

parasites. AS will be seen, the idea
is to immerse the animal in a bath,
thus subjecting whatever parasitic
growths may have found Judgment to
the action of the liquid. This of itself
would destroy many of the germs, but
the inventor goes further in his work
and applies a current of electricity to
complete the treatment by destroying
any parasites which have survived the
bath. The liquid preferably used is a
weak solution of acetic acid, as this
will add to the conductivity of the
bath, so that a weak current or one
of low voltage may be sufficient to kill
the germs without injury to the ami
NAL. In applying the treatment the
animal is first driven into the bath,
in which one pole of the battery is
placed. A metallic yoke Or fork is
then placed over the neck, with a wire
leading from the end of the fork back
to the battery to receive the return
current, the animals head being
forced under the surface of the liquid
for an instant to allow the current
to act on all parts of the skin.-Louis-

MAKE RELIGION AN UMBRELLA,
Rector's Ready wit Rebukes Golfer,
Who Enter Charch to Escape
a Shower.

When the bishop of Colorado, DR.. Sanford
Olmsted, was rector Of the Church Of St.
Asaph, at Bala, Pa, his ready wit made him
at once the admiration and the fear of the
people Of the neighborhood, says the New
York Tribune.
There is a fashionable golf and riding club
At Bala,, with grounds that adjoin those Of
the little church, and it happened on a
certain afternoon, when DR.. Olmsted was
holding a special service, that a number Of
golhng' clubmen were caught in a drenching
shower, and hurried for shelter into the
church.
They entered with a great clatter of their
golf sticks, and with muchsuppressed chuck
ling and hard breathing. Their noise and
their gay sporting attire made a Earring
note on the simplicity of the service. But
DIR; Olmsted paid no heed to them till the
smile:

I had been ailing with Kidney Trouble for
many years and it finally turned to Bright's

Everybody expected that Nj. Gray would

as little short of a miracle by all who know
how very,low he was. Dodd's Kidney Pills
are certainly a wonderful remedy.

Electricity md Milk

The unusual number of thunder
storms last summer should have been
accompanied by a large amount ofsour
milk, if the old belief that thunder
storms sour milk is true, but there has
been no complaint on that score so far
as reports show, says Hoard's Dairy
nan It is certainly true that milk is
frequently found sour after a severe
thunderstorm, and it is natural that
there should be a popular belief of a
relation between the two facts, but as
soon as we endeavor to verify the
claim by the actual trial of sweet milk
by electrical discharges we find that
the electricity fails to work and the
milk remains sweet, for electricity in
the form of sparks discharged indef-
nitely over the surface of milk fails to
show any effect in producing acid or
souring the milk.

RIpENlNG OF CREAM.
Unless Perfect Cleanliness Chnrnc-
terixes the Process, Good Rec
sultS Are Out of the Question.

Shallow setting produces cream suf-
acknowledgement, as a general thing, at
the time of gathering. Occasionally it
is over-ripened, which sometimes
causes considerable difficulty in-mak-
ing good butter. In deep setting, sew
eral ~skimmings may be put into one
can and held at a temperature of from
60 to 70 degrees. From "a to SO hours
will be sufficient to ripen it for churn-
ing. Some think it is necessary to use
a starter for cream from deep setting.
If buttermilk is used it should be the
first or top as drawn off the churn,
and it should be carefully kept in glass
jars that have been thoroughly
washed, scalded and kept in a cool,
pure atmosphere. About one-half
pint to one gallon of cream will be suf-
ficient to use.
The abnormal practice of ripening
cream in a churn that has not been
washed cannot be too severely con-
demned. The cream is hurried along
fast enough, but bad favors, propa-
gated in this way, invariably spoil the
butter. Separated cream may be
ripened the same as cream from deep
setting, but it requires more time,
probably an additional ten to 20 hours,
according to circumstances.
Every farmhouse has a different
temperature where the milk is kept.
A buttermaker must make rules to fit
the surroundings. Cleanliness, how
ever, applies to every buttermaker and
every milk room. It is impossible to
make a nicely favored butter with any
part of the surroundings filthy. Fla
o comes from fermentation that is
induced by germs. Foul dishes, bad
odors and filthy surroundings propa-
gate obnoxious germs that affect the
flavor of butter disastrously. Cleanli-
ness first, last and at all times is abso-
lutely necessary to the production OF
good butter.-E. L. Jenkins.

The Mixed MILK Rattan

Roughage is nearly the same every
where, corn silage, cornstalks and hay.
The question is what to use for a grain
ration to be fed with the above kinds
of roughage to produce the most milk.
Most farmers have corn and oats,
which they grind and feed mixed with
a little bran; this does not furnish the
most desirable nor the cheapest ration
when prodnctionis considered. Leave
put the corn entirely, as worse than
useless, and substitute cottonseed
meal, even at $50 per ton. BY feeding
four pounds bran, four pounds oats
and two pounds cottonseed meal, with
silage, cornstalks and hay, or even
without the hay, you will get results
that will be surprising.-Troy IN. "

K GOOD BUTTER.
All Authorities Are Agreed That
Success Depends on Proper
Ripening of Cream.

The all-important question of the
day with creamery and dairymen is
how to obtain a uniform and fine fla
vored butter. Nearly all investiga-
tors agree that the secret lies in the
proper ripening of the cream; and
when we read of the tons of low-grade
butter brought into the markets daily,
all owing to the fact that the negli-
gence or ignorance as to the proper
treatment of the cream lies at the root
of this great fault, it appears to be a
point worthy of consideration.
To state the subject of starters
plainly and intelligently, it is neces-
sary to take the fundamental princi-
pie of the ripening of cream into con-
~sideration. The ripening of cream in
cludes two features upon which the
quality of the butter largely depends.
These are flavor and texture. The eff
fects of ripening with starters are far
more marked upon the flavor of but
ter than upon the texture, for it is
during this process that the character
istic favors are developed. Cream
ripening is merely a fermentation
process caused by bacterial growth.
This growth is controlled by tenn
perature by which a rise from so
degrees Fahrenheit, and not to ex-
coed 100 degrees Fahrenheit, induces
growth and develops immense num-
bers of bacteria; while lowering the
temperature retards growth. The ac-
ton of these germs in cream results in
the conversion of a part of the milk
sugar into Tactic acid, and a slight for
nation of carbonic acid gas and a few
other volatile constituents not def
nitely known.-Midland Farmer.

GUARDS MAY 60 TO ALBANY
Will Be Asked to Participate in
Rifle Practice There.

1t is very probable that several
companies of the Fourth regiment,
Georgia state troops, will come to
Albany before the rife pracuice season
closes for the purpose of shooting on
the excellent rifle range of the Albany
Guarqs says an Albany press dispatch.
There are two other ranges in this
section of the state, but none can
compare with the range here in point
of equipment. Indeed, it is one of the
bes FRANCES in the state, and it is being
constantly improved. Sliding targets,
d new system of telephones and an
electric signal system are now being
installed at the range, and 1t Is being
put in thorough repair.
Colonel Wooten, who commands the
Fourth, is very anxious that the
companies in this section of the state
which have no ranges to shoot on come
tc Albany and spend at least one day
on the range. The companies which
he is endeavoring to have come for
this purpose are those from Cuthoert,
Fort Gaines, Dawson, Americas

In the event there is no state shoot
this year an effort will be made to

the season closes, Albany has held two
or three such shoots very successfully
and it is believed that, with the i'm
proved equipment of the range, even

ENrOMOLOGIsT SCOTT RESIGNS.
Meager Salary Forces Prominent State
Official to Quit lob.

State Entomologist w. M. Scott has
rendered his resigua TO take effect
september 1st, when he will go with
the department of agriculture at Wash
ipgton. He addressed letter yester-
day afternoon to Commissioner OF
Agriculture O. b. Stevens, who is
chairman of the state board of ento-
moIOgy.
The announcement of Mr.. ScOtt's
resignation will create but little sur
prise as it was known that he was
considering leaving the state service
because of better offer from the gov
eminent authorities at Washington.
Scouts resignation, while causing no
surprise, will cause general regret, as
he was a very popular official and was
we'll liked by all the fruit growers OF
the state.
Since coming to Georgia as state en-
tomOlogist in 1898 Mr.. Scott has done
valuable work for the fruit interests OF
the state, and has almost succeeded in
stamping out the dreaded disease
known as the San Jose scale.
The salary of state entOmologist Is
not a very large one in Georgia, and
it will be an exceedingly hard matter
to get a successor to Mr.. Scott, who
will fill the position as ably as he did.
II may be that assistant entOmologlst
Newell will be elected 10 succeed him.
The election is determind by the state
board of entomology.
