Europe Suspects salted Butter.

Sailing of butter is practice that is
very old and until recently has been
very popular. In fact our people have
come to believe that butter without sal.
is of little value. Yet in Europe un-
salted butter is being used to such an ex-
tent that salted butter is looked upon
with suspicion. 1t is said that salt is put
in to disguise the bad qualities. That of
course is not so where the sailing of but
ter is extensively racticed,-FarmeIs'

Every farmer should have hotbed.
Start this in the fall by digging hole
three feet deep and six feet square
and fill with coarse manure. A frame
size of hole Is inches above the
surface on tho north side and six
inches less on the south should be
provided. Fill this hole in the spring
with fresh hot horse manure and thor.
oughly tramp as filled, being careful
to keep level. Four inches of surface
dirt, consisting of leaf mold or ordi-
nary loan mixed with sand and well
rotted fine manue, should be secured
in the fall and kept from freezing
Thoroughly wet down the manure be
fore applying the surface dirt. L.

TESTING COAL FOR GAS.
Successful Methods Employed in Ger.

Successful Methods Employed in Ger
many Which Have Considerably
Increased Product.
Prof. Drehschmidt, of the German
Association of Gas and Water Engi-
neers, said recently to that body that
to arrive at proper judgment re-
specting the chemical composition of
coal thorough distillation is neces-
sary, and for that purpose an expert
mental gas works solely for that OBJ
ject. The best method is to erect a
bed of one or two retorts of normal
size, quite Independent of the works.
but with all the other apparatus
purifiers, scrubbers, and the rest of
the plant complete, so as to conform
with an ordinary works, but in the
same proportion as the experimental
bed. In this way it is easier to super
intend the work; and the alterations
required by the coal under examina-
tion can be readily made-such as
in the temperature of the bed, the
size of the charge, and the duration
of the distillation. These various con-
ditions must be altered until the best
results possible can be obtained from
the coal under examination. That is,
each type of coal should be subjected
to that treatment which will return
the highest yield of gas. At the NUM-
cipal gas works in Berlin number Of
tests have been made on these lines
and by such means of experimenting
they have succeeded in increasing the
product of certain coal from 305
cubic meters per ton to 800 cubic
meters. Prof. Drehschmidt contends
that it is not possible to make quite
sure of any determination from the
chemical composition of coal as to
what is the maximum yield possible
of gas and by-products of any class.
This, he says, is proved by a great
many tests and the collection of much
statistical information, so that he
recommends every works to have an
experimental station in order to as
certain for itself the best working
procedure to get the most profitable
yield from the scoal.

A Hard Test.

A skunk broke up Christian Science
meeting down in Pottawatomie county,
Mo-, the other night, according to a re-
liable exchange in that section. The
leader of the meeting attempted to con-
vince his followers that they only imag-
ined they smelled something, and if
they just believed there was no skunk
present the odor would at once vanish
But the skunk grew stronger.

Cow as a Household Pet.

Gentleness has been bred into the fe.

Women have taken care of them for un.

easily brought out by anyone thai
gives special attention to the Jersey
Guernsey or Holstein COW. She will
become household pet much more
readily than will animals of some othel

In fact they have one fine horse that
will not travel from the ground floor to

horse comes in and is unlocked at night
it walks straight over to tie elevator and
waits to be hoisted up; and when it is
cast loose in its stall in the morning, it
makes straight for the elevator again.
