To Imnress Children.

One great reason why children often
disoboy is because they 10 not uHder-
stand what is desired OF them. They
are careless, their minds wander
while they arc being instructed, and
consequently they disobey. A very
cSfcctual way TO secure q child's ODE
dience is TO insist upon n direct gaze
during the time the mother is talking
10 him. Have him look the speaker
straight In the eyes. and IL still in
clined 10 wandering, have him repeat
what has been told him. This inn
presses IL on his mind and increases
its importance, and there IS nothing
a child likes better than TO know that
what he is 10 do is important. or even
that IL is important that he refrain
from certain acts. And really what
is more important 20 both child and
mother than obedience ON the part OF
the child?

Iowa Cheese Industry.

According to the last report OF the

which is a decrease of nine from the
preceding year. The largest factory in

pounds OF milk per year and pays for

pounds, averaging up summer and
winter. The most successful factory
in the state receives about 2,000,O 900
pounds Of milk per year and pays for

tories is that one OF them, the smaller.

average Of 6S cents per 100 pounds.

very growing condition, The farmers
and manufacturers being more inter-
ested in making butter than cheese
This is due TO several causes. One
Is that the price paid for milk for
cheese making is less, as a general
thing, than that paid for the purpose
.oi making butter. In the case Of tho
cheese factory also the farmer gets
back no skimmillS, which is matter
or Importance to the man that has
calves, pigs and chickens to feed. II
TINS skimmilk is worth 20 cents per
lV0 pounds, as many claim II TO be for
feeding purposes, it will be seen that
the price paid FOR milk for cheese
must be very much higher than the
price paid for milk To be made into
butter, where the skimmilll is re.

Paying the euttermaker.

The question of the amount OF sal
airy TO be paid the buttermaker is a
live one in all creameries, whether
they be cooperative or individual.
In some creameries the salaries are
too low to give the best results, and
there is no induccment for the butter
maker TO improve the quality of the
product he is putting on the market
Probably no rule can be fixed for the
compensation of the buttermaker, but
the custom is prevailing in some of
our best creameries OF paying $50 to
SO per month. In some, too, the plan
is being adopted of paying 500 and
giving the buttcrmaker part or the
premium his butter receives or the
market. Thus. if he gets one cent n
pound more than the market price
Tor his butter, on account of quality,
that is divided between the butter
maker and the creamery. This seems
10 be good plan, but what the pro-
portion OF the premium each should
receive must depend on circumstances.
II is evident that in Il creamery where
the amount of milk handled is small
the proportion of the premium given
the buttermakcr should be larger than
in creamery whore very large
amount of milk is being handled, for
the reason that in the latter case his
salary would be more likely To be
near the living point than in cream
cry handling small weight of milk
daily. The fact that buttermakers. as
a rule, get about the same amount OF
wages is not factor leading to the
improvement of the butter 1t is Ger.
tainly a fact that some are worth
double the price of others, and this

here it is the popular belief that the
Sport is Of necessity ono for the rich
alone. no man OF even moderate means
presuming SO much as IN think of in
dulging in IL. In the British Isles
and other parts of northern Europe
this is undoubtedly true. Even in this
country and IN Canada in the last few
years tho salmon waters have been
taken by clubs and individuals. so
that now the fishing is restricted to
the few but Labrador and Newfound-
land are left free and moderately ac-
cessible TO the fishing public living in
the eastern states, and improved tray
cling facilities have made the trip To
Newfoundland q matter OF ease, so
that The number Of sportsmen visiting
that island is increasing enormously.
Fortunately the island is large
more than SEQ miles each way-and
the rivers very numerous. SO that il
will be some time before the country
is crowded. Thus far only a very
few OF the most accessible rivers have
been fshod in at all. Along the east
coast and the northern peninsula are
many rivers that have never known
fisherman. At the present time
these are rather difficult of access by
land, it is true, but by chatering a
small vessel fishermen can, at mod
crate cost visit the most remote OF
them and be sure OF almost unlimited
salmon.
