Tales of tiger shooting in India are
much about king cobra hunting. A.
Mervyn Smith tells how, accompanied
by two natives. he ven to a spot
where a pair of king cobras We're
known to be. On arrival at the place
he was made to get under a basket,
for a king cobra to put his head
through. While he was beneath this
basket one of the snakes came out and
was shot with arrows by natives. The
other cobra then appeared and endeav-
ored to overturn the coop. Describing
the incident the writer says: The ter
ror of that moment l cannot express.
What if it should overturn the basket?

The Flesh of the Goat.

Those who speak from experience
will agree that the flesh of kids is a
delicacy, and an honest city butcher
will tell you that they constantly pass
over his block as "lamb" and hat aus
toners do not complain Of the quality
of such lamb" The large packing
houses purchase every year considera-
BILE numbers Of mature goats which
are sold in the carcass or canned IS
mutton. The meat is not as palatable
as good mutton, but 1t may easily be
better than poor mutton. The general
reputation of the goat as an animal
unusually free from serious diseases
should be a further evidence Of its
food value. The prejudice against goat
meat is based upon the name and not
the quality Of the flesh, and II packers
would put the meat upon the market
for what it is it would gradually gain
in favor.

THE ~CMEESEmAkER

Theoretically q cheesemaker is sup
posed to be sufficiently busy with worl
inside the factory to leave but little
time to interest himself with outside
affairs, but practically his interests
outside are as great as if not greater
than that branch of his work relating
directly to the making up of milk, sale
E. G. Short in an address before the
Wisconsin cheesemakers' convention.
In actual work we have a condition
where the patron is at one end of &
seesaw, the customer at the other an(
the cheesemaker in the middle, trying
to keep both ends even.
An average cheesemaker IA take
good milk and make a good cheese, bu'
1t needs nc prophet nor the son of {
prophet to foresee that dirty, tainted
milk will make a poor cheese in spite
Of the efforts of the most successful
among you.

have a marked influence on the quality
of milk if it is poor in the beginning
So his skill Is largely dependent or thu
personal habits of from twenty to six
ty men who supply him with his raw
material, and it naturally follows tina
he must take an interest in things out
side the factory whether he desires i
or not.
Sailing Cheese.
Good dairy salt, not too fine, should
be added at the rate of two to three
pounds Of salt to the curd obtained
from 1000 pounds of milk. Great care
should be exercised in securing tn.
very best salt; otherwise the highes
grade Of cheese cannot be secured.

TRAINING VOICES.
Quack Music Teachers and the Harm
They DO Pupils.

They DO Pupils.
"Ninety-five per CEN Of all vocal
teachers are quacks,'' said an old mu-
sician. Few singers would doubt the
assertion. Probably in no other kind
of work can a nan who knows practi-
cally nothing about a subject do so
quickly d lucrative amount of teach
ing. There are many common types
the piano teacher who cannot get
enough pupils to make a living, the
broken down old time singer, the dere-
lict of the concert halls. who never
could sing himself, and many more.
Their half hour lessons may be said to
consist one-third Of chat and gossip,
one-third of scales and exercises and
one-third of the singing of the pupils
fayorite songs, all i~nterspersed with
just enough commentator and criti
cism to keep the pupils good opinion
of both himself and of her teacher.
not only ruined voices, but temporarily
harmed general health as well. Over
against these charlatans of the profess
sion there are conscientious men and
women who can detect faults i'll a
voice and know how to correct them
and who work carefully and enthuSi-
a~stically for each individual pupil.
1t is not easy to tell the good teacher
from the quack, and you will find bit
ter early experiences in many a sue
essful singers career. -Leslie's Month

Ringing IA Bull.
Put a ring in a bulls nose at any
time after he is weaned. the sooner
the better, says Breeders Gazette. Do
not trust n bull without q ring in his
nose. Ringing a bull will not make
him vicious. He will be a little tender
and ''touchy'' about the nose until the
septum heals at point of puncture and
until he gets accustomed to the use of
the ring. No other way is 50 efficacious
to make a bull lead and handle quiet
ly. A hole may be cut in the septum
the membrane between the two nos
trils--just above he feshy part with
a trocar, a large punch or a knife. a
large punch that cuts Il round hole
about the size of the ring is best, al
though it matters little. A small blade
Is sold with some rings which is fas-
tened with a screw into one end of
the opened ring and is passed through
the dividing membrane Of the nose
with the ring following. The blade is
then detached and the ends of the ring
closed and the screw inserted. Tie the
head of the bull tight, so he cannot
jerk it about when the hole is cut.
The operation is very simple and east
ly done.
Treatment For Hoof Disease.
Give one dram calomel, one ounce
ginger and one pint ray linseed Oil.
Follow this with one dram dried sui
Ephate of iron, one dram II vomica,
one-half ounce gentian and one ounce
h~yposulphite soda twice a day. Soak
the feet in warm water if possible and
poultice with faxseed meal twice a
day, using a t%easpoonful of zenoleum
in the poultice for each foot.
Swollen Udders In Cows.
Give plenty good food and water III
one dram nux yomica, two drains dried

Zenoleum, one pint; oil of tar, four
pints; sulphur, four pounds; cottonseed
oil, four gallons; mix. Apply with

Docking Lambs.
Take the voting lamb under the left
arm, hold the tail with the fingers of
the left hand, the tail being at the
front of the operator; slip up the skin
toward the rump. and with a pruning
sheers or large scissors clip the tail
two inches from the body. The tail is
severed in an instant, the scissors are
dropped on to the table, and a pinch
of evenly mixed powdered salt and
alum is applied to the wound. The
skin is drawn down and the wool gath
cred into a ruff and the lamb released.
