and other stock to drink, provided
they can not wade into and pollute
its waters. Fencing these brooks is
the only way TO make them service
abe; otherwise the stock will surely
wade into them IN hot weather and
make a quagmire out of the part TO
which they have access, unless, in
deed, the water is too shallow for
this to be an attraction to the ami
mails. We have seen places arranged
al such brooks where the stock could
approach and drink. A big trough
vas erected and into this the water
ran from a spout from an aqueduct
that tapped the stream some distance
above the point where the trough
was placed. How far above this may
be, depends on the fall of the bed Of
the brook. The trough should be
located near the brook so that the
overlooking water may run back again
into the brook. If the trough is
erected in another place, from which
the water can not flow directly back
into the brook, a miry place will be
created, which will be a source of
discomfort to the mixer that has to
clean the tails and legs of the cows
before milking or to the man that has
to clean the feet of the horses. We
have spoken of fencing. but if the
brook is a small one, this will not be
necessary. except in places here and
there where the water is deep enough
to prove an attraction to the COWS.
Many times such places may be OBJ
waited by digging narrow channel
in the center through which the water
will flow. AS the amount of water
Passing through a small brook in
summer time is not large, except in
times Of freshet, small channel of
this kind will remove the trouble.
When the weather gets cool the cows
will not care to stand in the water
The provision has to be made against
tbs only in summer time. Where the
brook or stream is large there is an.
other way in which the stock may be
kept from polluting 1t. and that is by
having the pasture divided by fence,
tie brook being in one OF the divi-
sions. One part may be used in spring
and fall and the other in summer.

irish creameries Increasing.

The number of creameries in Ire
land is rapidly increasing. The in
crease is among both the proprietary
eand the cooperative. OF the former
tshere are now 800 and of the latter
,t0s. Last year these 500 creameries
received over eighty million gallons
uof milk and produced over fourteen
Thousand tons of butter. Most of this
found ready market in various parts
Nof Great Britain. The quality of the
i5utter from these creameries shows
n tendency to improve in quality,
which it must do. as it is brought into
sharp competition with the butter
from Denmark and from Canada. both
OF which makes are high in quality.

Fruit Juices
and Cold

1t has often been asked If one kind
of fruit would stand the cold better
than another kind and the answer has
generally been that there was little
difference. That answer still remains
good. However, fruits do differ some
as to the point at which their juices
freeze. The grape seems to stand
more cold than any other of our COM
mon fruits, if we can judge by the
tendency of the juices to resist cold.
Just why the succulence in one plant
should have greater resisting ability
than the succulence in another we do
not know. but that they have such re-
sisting ability is certainly a fact.
Within recent years there has been
considerable investigation along this
line as to the resisting power of the
juices of apples, plums, pears,
peaches. grapes and ounces. Pro
lessor Reynolds of Guelph has made
some quite elaborate Investigations
and has arrived at very satisfactory
results, though it may be possible
that his determinations are inexact
a degree, however, cuts very little
figure when the temperature in the
cold storage house has sunk ten de-
grees or more below the temperature
the fruit will stand.
A tube of glass was placed in a
mixture OF pounded ice and salt and
in this tube was placed the thermom-
eter surrounded by the juice to be
tested. In each case the temperature
fell till the Juice began to CONCEAL, as
was indicated by the appearance Of
fakes of ice in the juice. Then the
temperature remained stationary till
the whole quantity of Juice had con-
gealed. After that the temperature
fell further This temperature, which
was stationary for the time the freez-
ing process was going on, may be
taken to be the one at which the juice
of each fruit freezes. A check was
made to this by noting the point at
which the frozen juice melted, and
1t was found to be approximately the
same as that at which it CONCEALED
The juice of apples froze at 1913;
plums 29.S; peaches 29.66; grapes
27.S6; pears 2S.SS; ounces 2912. 1t
will be noted that grapes were thus
shown best able TO resist cold and
that next to them pears were the most
resistent. Plums were the least re-
sistent.
These results show how far our
opinions are away from the facts on
such matters. 1t has been supposed
that the more Juice a fruit had in it
the quicker it would freeze, and that
the fruits with the harder flesh were
more apt TO resist the coming of the
cold. But 1t is apparent that the mere
percentage of water in a fruit does
not control its susceptibility to cold,
but some other quality possibly its
sacharine content does. II would be
interesting to know If all varieties of
apples, grapes and other fruits have
the same resisting ability 1t will be
still more interesting to- learn what
is the chemical constituent that has
the most effect in checking the crys-
tallizing due to the presence of a low
temperature. Once that is found out
we may be able to breed into fruits
the element that helps them to resist
cold. 1t may be found that the guam
tity in which a certain element is
found in fruit determines whether q
fruit shall belong to the sub-tropical
or to the temperate zone.

The Sheen Pasture.

The sheep pasture must be some
times given a rest from sheep on ac-
count OF the deposit OF the eggs of in.
tnstinai worms of sheep. In some old
pastures these eggs are said to
20 spread by the millions. This is
& paxtScuiariy dangerous ground to be
fed over by young lambs. The man
chat has more than one pasture will
ind himself in an advantageous posi-
tfon I'm case of trouble with intestinal
worms arising. He can then simply
change his sheep run from one pas,
fure 20 the other. Such a change is
sot necessary unless there are signs
OF the presence Of such worms among

Glass buttons are chiefly made In

exclusively a Vienna product. but
shirt buttons are made chiefly in Bir-

Facundo Valdez, engine inspector

SO that he did not see an engine which
was backing rapidly up When found
he was ground to pieces. lying across
the track. near the foot Of the coal
chute, and had apparently been dead
some time, for the body was cold. He
was last seen alive at quarter past
eleven. At this time he was working
upon an engine. At 1890 Engineer
Davis took the big 9lS out, and this
was the only engine moving In that
locality until after the dead man was
found. AT half-past twelve the engi.

tion and that Mr.. Dame will be the
choice Of the second district. There
the certainty ends.
The Delegateships.
In the fourth district Col. r. e.
Twitchell has twenty.four out Of forty
nine votes pledged to him. District Al
torney D. ], Leahy Of Colfax county
has his own county and Union county
Instructed for him. The votes OF Mora
county are instructed for Chas. A..
Spiess, while those from Quay couIry
are uninstructed. The first choice will
be probably for Spiess, the second for
Twitchell. 1t has been generally un-
derstood that II any man can COM
mand majority Of the votes in his
district the convention will ratify the
choice. On this basis Mr. Twitchell
should be fairly sure Of being the del
egate from the fourth district. In
the event Of the withdrawal of either
OF the other gentlemen It will be nee,
essary for Twitchell to secure only one
OF their votes to ensure his election.
Bernalillo county delegates are solid
for Twitchell, as are those from LIN
coin and Chaves counties, in the event
OF his securing the majority in his
district. A close contest is also ex-
pected in the fifth district. Bursum
has the delegates from Socorro coun-
ty, and one delegate from Eddy will
vote for him. Col. Pritchard has Lin
coin and Chaves and possibly Roose-
welt, with perhaps one vote from Ed
ldy. II the matter comes to q test OF
| the whole convention. it Is believed
he can command the support OF Grant
! Sierra, San Miguel and Leonard Wood
counties outside his own district, with
scattering votes from other delega
tions. If the decision Of the conven
tion be in all cases to endorse that
candidate who receives q majority o.
| the votes Of his own district, Col
Pritchard's chances are exceedingl,
good.
There is three.cornered fight IL
the third district. Major Llewellyr
has been endorsed by Dona Ana count,
and 1t is believed will carry Luna. W
H. Newcomb has Grant county ant
Hon. VIM. Andrews is the choice q
Sierra county. Unless unforeseen com
