Canadian Cheese Inspection.

Nanao'an CnecSe inspection.
The province Of Ontario has 1000
cheese factories. Sixteen travelling
cheese instructors are employed. They
find this number insufficient and un-
satisfactory and wish to increase it.
Each of these instructors gets from
500 to $1,000 for the season. There,
the travelling cheese instructor
watches a group of from 20 to 80
factories. Some of these he visits
but once in a season, others as often
as once month, the number of visits
depending upon the necessities of the
factories. He gives counsel, sees that
the factory is kept clean and by re-
porting to the proprietors or farm
owners is able to weed out the poor
cheese-makers and encourage and
stimulate the worthy ones. He has
no absolute power, his work being
strictly advisory.
The province of Quebec has about
SO OF these travelling instructors. Here
the dairymen are largely Of French
descent and the cheese factories are
smaller than those of the province
OF Ontario and relatively more numer-
Gus. Here different plan is fol-
lowed from that of Ontario. The
cheese factories are allowed to form.
syndicates, so-called, that is, twenty
to thirty factories near together are
allowed to form an association for
hiring a travelling cheese instructor.
If they hire one approved by the gov
ernment: the government will pay to-
ward his salary up to the limit OF
$3.50, but not more, and not more
than half his salary in any event. The
instructors receive from $500 to $500
for the season. The difference be-
tween the government allowance and
the total amount of the salary is met
by the factories themselves. Thus it
will be seen that the Provincial Gov
ernment of Quebec pays out more
than $12,500 annually for these trav-
cling instructors, while the patrons of
the factories themselves must pay at
least $20,009.-J. @. Emery.

When the Lambs Come.


AS the ewes lamb bring them into
the warm stable, where the pens have
already been prepared, examine the
udder, draw some milk, so that the
lamb will get it more freely, clean
all the wool and filth away from
around it, so that the lamb will have
no trouble in getting hold of the teat,
says A. G. Gamley of Manitoba. II
the lamb is strong, don't be in too
great hurry to get him to suck, he
will soon find teat, and the less they
are handled the better. If the lamb is
weak, assist it to the teat, holding it
up for a few times or until he finds
his legs. If too weak to suck, draw
some milk from the eve into warm
tea cup, feeding two or three spoon.
fuls at time, until strong enough to
help itself. If lamb is chilled and
apparently lifeless, pour a teaspoon
tul OF gin in little warm water down
its throat, and submerge it once, all
but the head. in warm water, or put
in warm oven. The latter, the hot
air cure, think is much the surest
plan. have brought round lambs in
that way that have been picked up
for dead. Never give up lamb that
has been chilled and never sucked,
without trying one of the aforesaid
methods for it's recovery; the chances
for that lamb living are good deal
better than for an ailing lamb a few
days or a week old.
AS the lambing progresses, the
shepherd will have observed that
some ewes are much heavier mixers
than others, and that the poor milk.
ers very often have twins; put one
of the twins on eve with a single
lamb and a good mixer. The best
and easiest plan is to pick out a eve
giving indications of being good
mother, and watch for her lambing.
AS soon as she has lambed, and be.
lore she gets up, place the twin lamb
beside the newborn lamb, and roll
ard rub them together, which will
give the same appearance and smell
to both, and when the eve turns
round to survey her progeny, she will
never suspect the fraud, but will com
mence licking both lambs. I have
never seen this plan fail. If eve
loses her lamb, make her foster a
twin.

CORY INDIAN BALL GAME.
Contests Often More Desperate Thar
the Worst Seen on the
Gridiron.

Indian ball IS peculiar, a fascinating
and a bloody game. It is played on a
ground almost like a gridiron There
are two goals $50 yards apart, and the
object is to pass the ball between thess
goals. The ball IS like a baseball, tbs
Indians making them themselves with
yarn covered with deerskin A stieR
about two feet long with a spoon shape
at the end backed by thong laces is used
and in this spoon the Indians mutt catch
the ball He is not allowed to touch
it with his hands He catches ane
throws with his club.
The game is a skirnish all the time
and there are 20 players on a side Ar
Indian catches the ball in his stitch Il
he is skillfui. He starts on run for his
goal He is Immediately tackled BY all
his opponents, and the scene closely re-
sembles down. He runs as far as
he can. and then tries to throw the
ball. The opposing players baIk at
him at every move. They strike his
stick if they can. and if not. they strike
whatever is in reach, often the head
of the player:
The games are sometimes bloody, es-
peciaIly when played between rival

MOST ANCIENT PRINTERS.
Chinese Produced Prints and Illustra-
tIons Before Europe Knew
About Them.

Centuries before the art preserya~
tive vas known in Europe the Chi
nese had practieed printing and had
produced illustrations by engraved
blocks. From the Chinese the Japan
csc learned TO print and engravings
dating from the thirteenth century
have been found.
typography was first employed in
the service of religion for reproducing
texts and images of the Buddha. This
was followed by the production of pub
LEGATIONS such as romanees and novels
In which the Illustrations were about
on a par with those in old-time chat
books. These were followed by single
sheet prints. and by that large class Of
fheater as advertisements.
Chroma-xylograph originated in
Japan at the commencement of the
eighteenth century with single sheets
printed from three blocks, black, pale
green or blue, and pale pink. A fourth
block was added in 1920, and two
others were added about 10 years later.
The art was brought to perfection
between 1865 and 1855 in the single
sheet pictures, Tori Kgonaga,,' sSu.
zuki Haruhobu' and tsKatsugaWs
Shunsho.''
The technique of japanese engrav.
ing and printing is thus described
The picture, drawn for the engraves
on thin transparent paper of a par
ticular kind, is pasted face downwar:
upon block of wood, usually cher
ry, and the superfuous thickness OF
paper is removed by a process OF
seraping until the design is clearly Wis
fble
The borders of the outline are then
incised-very lightly in the more deli
cate parts-With a kind of knife and
the interspaees between the lines of
the drawing are finally excavated By
means of tools of various shapes.
The ink is then applied with brush
and the printing is effected by hand
pressure, assisted by kind of pad,
to which procedure may be attributed
much of the beauty of the result Ger
tain graduations of tone and even
polychromatie effects may be pro-
duced from a single block by suitable
application of ink or color upon the
wood, and on carefully examining
these prints it is often apparent that
a great deal of artistic feeling. has
been exercised in the execution of the
picture after the designer and engrav-
er had finished their portion of the
work.
