Mendina Table Linen.

When hole actually appears in
table linen it must be either darned
OF patched, and darning is most sat
isfaetory. If the tear or broken
place is not large put the linen into
an embroidery hoop and darn with
soft mercerized cotton or get the
flat linen thread if you can, which
is made for the purpose of darning
table linen. Either will be better
than ravelings of the cloth, which
were once thought to be the best
for mending.

gent and scientific agriculture. We
know of no vocation which today offers

IL larger measure of independence than
the one here mentioned. While success

gether with opportunities to follow sci
entifc study at the various state agri-

the mind and Will to secure adequate
preparation for agricultural and hOrti-
cultural pursuits. We have in mind an
illustration to the point. On completion
of high school course and not having
Il well defined preference for any par
ticular vocation, a young man we
know, after thorough conference on
the matter with his father, who was
abundantly able to give him any kind

equipped men in this line of work there
is little doubt that there will be half
a dozen places waiting for our friend
when he completes his course ut the
state agricultural school. And this is
but one of Il dozen special lines in
which there is urgent demand for well
equipped students. For those who have
not the necessary educational equip
ment to take up the advanced work,
there are special short courses which
have in view fitting the student for a
more intelligent pursuit of the ordinary
agricultural operations having TO do
with the care and Judging of stock, the
study and handling Of soils, drainage,
a study of seed corn, grains and grass
es and allied subjects Looking the
field over as Il whole and taking into
account the hundreds of young men
who are fitting themselves for the pro
fessions, aS well as the increasing val
tie of land, which makes almost i'm
perative the application of the greatest
possible measure of intelligence and

there is no occupation which offers
more inducements than agriculture and
its kindred fields.

BUTTER STORAGE EXPERIMENTS.

BUTTER STORAGE EXPERIMENTS.
A bulletin recently issued by the
dairy division of the bureau of animal
industry at Washington gives some in
teresting data relative to the expert
ments which have been conducted dur
ing the past year in the making and
storage of butter. Last summer G,000
pounds of butter made in Kansas and
Iowa We're placed in cold storage IN
Chicago. Some of the questions as to
which these experiments were expected
to give results were Q) the effect of
pasteurZation, (2) the amount of salt
to be used, (3) temperature of the stor-
age rooms, (i) the use of cans hermeti-
cally sealed for storing butter, (5) the
keeping qualities of good compared
with poor butter, and (6) the action OF
air III contact with butter in storage
The butter was made from five lots of
cream, three of which We're sour when
received ut the creamery and two
sweet From each lot of cream two lots
of butter were made, one pasteuriZed
and the other not, and part of each lot
of butter was lightly salted and part
heavily salted. The butter was packed
in tubs and cans, some of the cans be-
ing only partly filled, so as to test the
effect of air. A part of each lot of
butter was stored at different tempera-
lures, and the whole lot remained In
storage eight months. The results
showed that the butter containing
low percentage of salt kept better than
that heavily salted, that butter in full
cans kept better than in cans only
partly full, and, lastly, that butter
made from cream received sweet kept
better both in storage and after re-
moyal than butter made from the sour
cream

A friend of the writer reports excel
lent results in Kidding his fields of
weed pests by plowing them in Au-
gust. In case of most of the ANNALS
this means the turning of the weeds
under before the crop of seed is ma
tured. while the batch that usually
sprout from the plowed surface are
In fine shape to get nabbed by the
frost. Our friend further says that he
gets even better results from what
manure he may have to haul out by
putting 1t on the land after 1t is plow-
ed with manure spreader and disking
1t in in the spring than by putting 1t
on the stubble and plowing under later
in the fall or the next spring.
There is probably no other agricul-
tura or pastoral occupation that ap
proaches in point of monotony and a
dead level of weariness that of sheep
herding. There are instances where
these men who have charge of big
herds of sheep in the western states
have gone crazy or committed suicide,
driven to do so by sheer desperation
OF lonesOmeness. All kinds of devices
are tried to vary the mOnOtony of the
herder's life-anything that will tend
to make him forget the herd in his
charge and give him a change. 1t is
under such circumstances that one
comes to prize human companionship,
and even the presence of an intelligent
dog is highly valued
Cement, which Is today coming into
so general use for a variety of pur-
poses, is known to have been used by
the Chaldeans Egyptians. Greeks and
Romans, Its most ancient form being
simply burned limestone, used much as
lime is used today. The Romans were
the first to add clay to lime for the
purpose of making cement that
would harden under water The most
important discovery in the manufac-
h.!e of cement during period of
twenty centuries was made early in
the eighteenth century, when 1t was
discovered that the quality of hydraul-
ic cement depends upon the amount of
clay in the limestone. The Portland
cement of today was given its name
by an EnEllshman who patented
process of burning lime and clay and
lave the name because of the resem-
)fance of the product to the Portland
limestone.
