buttermaking.
When butter is gathered in the
churn in granular form it is

In seasoning with brine, butter
is never over worked, as it is not
worked at all.
Working out buttermllk and

to raise her quota of corn on &C
count of two things first, we do
not give corn the same attention
in preparation and manure as We
give to our cotton, and secondly,
we injure it seriously by plowing
too deep "laying by time". We
should plow our corn at least
four times, and the last three
times should be with cultlvators
and sweeps or very broad scrapes
set on the heel of the plow to
run very shallow. You injure the
corn every time you break a
root. You had as we'll argue that
cutting the small veins in mans

he does not bleed to death, as to
contend that you can break these
small rootlets of the corn stalk
without impairing its vitality

can never agree with any stunt
ing or setback theories in the
cultivation of corn. We want the
most perfect stalk growth we
can secure, and this alone can be
obtained by full root develop
ment. Many of Us farmers who
have titled the soil all our lives
have very little idea Of the won
derful, rapid and extensive root
development of our plants, We
haven't been to technical and
close observation. We never care
to run things into extremes. We
have most wholesome reverence
for practical common sense that
goes to work and secures visible,
tangible results, while many are
drawing out or unraveling fine
spun theories. But there is such q
thing which we have often seen
where a man trains this com m o n
sense until he knows the "how
and why's" of a thing, so that his
work is done both at the time
and in the manner that will give
the best results. Such men VIC

No sport, like football, will hereafter be al

To the objection that Harvard cannot afford to
pay for such training as its football teams have
always had in the past. the answer is made that
the British university Rugby teams have such
training, and yet manage to play better game
than any American college eleven In this country.
In any case, no matter what objections are

Hockey Club of Ne7o York Wins an
Easy Victory.

The Princeton hockey team made its first ap

tice game with the Hockey Club of New York
at the st. Nicholas Rink last night and was
beaten by a score of to l.
The feature of the game was fast piece OF
combination work by the local seven when
Russell and Forester carried the puck down
The rink on clever passing, and Bryan shot it
into the cage for the first goal for the Hockey
club. AS FAR as team work concerned
there was little of it in evidence by the uni
Eerslty boys Chew and Osborn. however,
brought the rubber down the rink several times
with lightning speed. to the delight of their
supporters.
The Hockey Club made frequent changes in
It's lineup, while Princeton made only one
change, when Phillips took Brush's place in the
second half Phillips was winded by being hit
wltn the puck, but was able to resume play in
a few minutes. Harmon, of the Hockey Club,
was the only player hurt I'm the game. In the
second half he hit back of the ear with
the rubber and received a slight cut.
The last goal credited to the Hockey Club
came through the unmeant generosity of CHS
lett, the goal tender of Princeton. In q scrim-
mage in front of the cage he accdently knocked
the puck into the net.
The first half ended 8 to in the Hockey
Clubs favor. Lewis saved the visitors from a
shut-out by scoring the only goal FOR his side

Kerrigan, the seven-year-old son of David Ker-
rigan of Midvae. fifteen miles above Montclair,
is dead at his fathers home a supposed victim
of hydrophobia. A few days ago a strange dog
appeared in the village and after biting several
other dogs spied the Kerrigan boy playing near
his home. The little fellow made effort to
escape. but the rabid animal overlook him and
fastened its teeth IN the boys leg. Symptoms Of
hydrophobia soon developed, and the little fellow
died in terrible agony yesterday.
Near Butler. n. j., there Is family named
Reeve who for years have made a speciality OF
treating hydrophobia, and the boy was given
what is called the "brickdust' treatment.
The cure has remained family secret for four
generations and it is said that the Kerrigan
boys case is the only failure of the cure in that
time. The Reeve family refuse to make any
charge for treatment, but efforts to have them
disclose the formula have been unsuccessful
Many residents of Montclair have taken the
