PLANTS AROUND CREAMERY
Beauty Is a Power That Speaks Loudly

Flower beds around the creamery
Is a subject that has only recently been
discussed in the public print. Yet How

index Of a general policy Of keeping clean.
A man that beauties the ground of the

seven thicknesses each Of boards and
paper are used, and in these walls two
Or more dead air spaces are made.
The s%tudding for the walls should be
Of 2x1O hemlock or other rough stuff.
These are covered inside and out with
close fitting sheeting, inch or three
quarter inch.
In the space between the studding Is
packed sawdust, asbestos or mica;
then a ply of good building paper is
put on over the sheeting and another
coat of boards over that again. Over
this sheeting more paper and two inch
wooden straps are nailed; paper owe
these straps, and more sheeting. This
makes six ply each of paper and sheet
ing, and two dead air spaces. The sew
enth ply of paper and a finishing ply
of sheeting is then put on the outside.
This wall should inclose both the ice
house and store-room. Whether so
much insulation IS used may depend
upon whether the first cost is more
than one cares to incur.
T The movement of the air in the ice
house and store-room is indicated in
the plan, and is briefly this: The air
in the store-room is warmed by the
products there, and ascends to the cell
ing, where it is conducted through a
space formed by a false ceiling to a
flue running up the side Of the ice
house. On coming IL contact with the
ice the air is cooled down again and
settles down. At the bottom of the ice
house it is drawn into the store-room
through openings in the side of the
wall; is warmed up again and circu-
lates as before.
The ice house in this particular case
would be built at the end of the main
building and would be Is feet high.
It's foundation should be solid. and
drainage provided for the melting ice,
The storage-room floor may be a few
inches below that Of the ice house, but
this detail can be arranged as desired
Close fitting double doors should be
provided at intervals up the side of the
ice-house to take in the ice. The cell
ing should be we'll insulated, and q
window in the store-room wall should
have three or four sashes of lights, the
outer ones being frosted. This whole
plan. it should be remembered, is MOI
given as a model, but simply to sug.
gest some ideas on the subject. 1t has
however, been tried on a large scale
and found quite satisfactory.

FRUGAL MEXICAN INDIANS.
They Are Trained from Childhood to
Habits of Industry and
Thrift.

Imagine a pOultryman who carries his
chickens so miles to market on his back,
or an orange grower who trots behind
his pack train of burros three days and
nights of each week to deliver his prod
uct in the city on Sunday, says the Los
Angeles Times.
The speed with which the Mexican In
dian accomplishes these long journeys
is astonishing, but comes from early
training. When a boy reaches his tenth
year his father undertakes his educa-
ton. He is given a new belt or sash and
new leather sandals and clad in shirt and
trousers Of spotless white "manta' he
follows his father out OF the little val
ley which has been his world.
His pack is only a small canteen Of
drinking water, while his father has
strapped to his back a crate Of peaches
and a jar of wild honey. They cross
rough mountains and deep gorges,
speaking no words and never varying
their pace from a slow, regular trot.
The sun strikes pltilessly from a
cloudless sky and the little clumps of
shade seem but placed to torture those
who cannot stop.
pause is finally made in the bed of a
canyon, where a little water trickles
from the side of a rock to lose itself in
a wilderness of powders and sand.
Wash out your mouth, but do not sWal-
low any of it," commands the father,
and the boy obeys, though his stomach
feels as parched as his lips.
Now they take a winding trail, going
ever upward, and the boys feet slip and
shuttle as he strives to keep the pace on
the dusty path. The sun reaches he
zenith and descends slowly toward the
west and hunger begins to gnaw until
the little fellow let's out a whimper.
Pull your belt as tight as you cam
says the father; I'VE must not eat or
drink when travelling" When the sun
touches the great ridge OF hills in the
west a halt is made and soon the dried
meat is simmering over a fire. They pass
the night on the ground and, rising be-
fore dawn, continue their journey.
Once in town the honey and peaches are
sold or traded at the market for a few
yards Of "manta" or a nest of earthen
dishes.
1t Is not uncommon for these Indians
to travel 60 miles by trails so rough that
a,horse could not follow them.

The Eve of the Dairy Cow.

The eye of the cow, as Of the human
being, is indicative of much. 1t shows
the character and force of the nervous
energy back of it. If the nervous force
is strong, the eye will show marked in
telligence. 1t will be wide open, and
the sight will appear to be penetrating,
1t is said that a COW with a placid eye
always has a good disposition, and this
is doubtless true OF the human animal.
The COW with a placid eye will get along
easily at all times, and will generally be
contented with her lot, whatever it may
be. She is the kind OF an animal that
would luxuriate in English meadows or
contentedly chew herring on the bleak
coast Of Iceland. But there is such q
thing as having an eye too open, and this
indicates too great nervousness, and that
the animal is easily frightened. The
same is true of the quick, flashing eye.
The eye Of the COW can be studied with
proit.-Farmers' Review.

DAIRY COLD STORAGE PLAN.
It Is Very Simple in ALI It's Details
and Results Obtained from It
Are Satisfactory.

The accompanying cut illustrates the
system of cold storage for dairy fac
tories, recommended by the dairy d.
vision at Ottawa. Canada:
The first essential is to have walls,
floors and ceiling well insulated. The
necessity of this is evident, as the ice
is not packed in sawdust OF other mate
rial, but is exposed SO that the air may
circulate around it, as indicated by the
arrows in the illustration. To secure
properly insulated walls requires a lib
eral use of lumber and paper. In the

POINT TO BE CONSIDERED.
The DIGESTIVE Power of a Cow Has
Much to Do with Her Capacity
as Milk Producer.

The power of the COW to take and
digest large quantities OF food resu-
lates to a considerable degree her
is of little value, as it is Impossible
for her to make mix, and force ener-
gy and milk out of food that con-
tains too little of the elements for
force and milk making. In all cases
a large eater is wanted. The large
eater will have a depth of body not
seen in the small eaters. The breadth
Of the body will also be more than
that of cow that are small producers
Of milk. In the same connection, we
may say that the body must also be
long. 1t is NOT enough that the cow
have a deep and wide paunch j. it is
short. With these go the strong jaws,
which much be strong to masticate the
amount Of food the animals require
to fill the large cavity of the stom-
ach. The greater number OF good
feeders have marked depth Of body, and
the ribs are what we call w~ell-sprung.
This means that the ribs are not bent
down in such a way as to decrease the
size of the abdominal cavity. No mat
ter what the temperament of a COW nay
be, if she has not the power to digest
easily a great Quantity of food, she will
be of little use as a milk producer. One
of the best milk cowS the writer ever
knew had this great power of digesting
feed to a remarkable degree. She had
powerful jaws and a big paunch. Moth
ing seemed to be able to put her off her
feed. She could fill up with anything
and digest it without trouble. One night
she broke loose in the stable and got
to the place where the different feeds
were kept. She sampled everything in
sight, and tilld up On corn meal, bran,
gluten feed and middlings. When the
owner opened the door in the morning
the COW was standing facing him, with
sides bulged out too far to allow her
to pass through the door. He said:
You're a dead cow" for he thought that
a COW stuffed SO full of dry ground feed
as she was would certainly die. But the
COW seemed to think otherwise, and pro-
ceeded to digest her midnight meal as il
it had been a common ration for her
The same amount of overfeed would have
put most COWS out of business, for some
time, at least. That digestive ability III
a COW is valuable, and where found il
should be carefully transmitted by breed
ing.-Farmers' Review.

POOR CONCERNS, BIG SAFES
Business Houses of Questionable Sta
o.. bility Have Larger Strong
Boxes Than They Need.

One distinctive and distinguishing
feature of financial collapses is the large
measure Of attention which is attracted
to the safe or safes Of the defunct firm
or corporation. 1t is a well-established
axiom in business circles, states the
New York Sun, that the poorer the
credit the larger the safe"
New concerns Of questionable stabil-
ity in every business district almost in
variably equip themselves with elabor-
ate, ornate and usually powerful safes
protected against burglars, fire or other
unforeseen contingencies and having,
usually, some very elaborate combina-
ton. When the smashup occurs the
sense of confidence among creditors, in
spired. by the formidable character of
the safe, leads them to insist upon the
opening of the strong box in the appar-
ent belief that it is sure to yield large
hidden treasure, a exception almost
never realized.
A new concern which would start in
business without a formidable safe or
safes would certainly lack II of the
chief resources for getting credit; but
Notwithstanding this, huge safes con-
tinue to be almost an integral part of
all businesses in a line where large cred
it and very little real resources are de-
manded. In the furnishing of a new Of
fee or offices the item of safes is never
large, but in no way better than by the
purchase of safes can a full measure of
credit be established.
Some day there will be a smashup in
the business district of New York, and
the sensational discovery will perhaps
be made that there was no safe in pos
session of the concern, but SO far no such
case has been disclosed, and every large
concern, it is now sometimes said, has a
small safe and every small concern a
large one.

St Petersburg, Feb. 26.-The Novoe

leading article regarding the relations
existing between the United States and
Russia. In considering the unfriend-
~ manifestations in the United States,
the Novoe Vremya attributes the agi-
tation in the press to g. campaign en-
gineered by the Jews. The paper in
sists that the traditional friendship
for Russia. occupies a firm position in
the American mind and heart.
The Novoe Vremya, on the other
hand, contends that the Washington
government has been unfriendly to
Rusisa, and compares the most bril-
liant feat fthe state Departmental
Geographic ratification of the Chinese
open port treaty-to Geographic mar
riages, which, 1t says, sometimes are
practiced in America.
