Dear NJ. B. Friends:

Dear N, b. Friends:
Queer, isn't it, that the above poem is
trueq But then, you and know it is so.
Did you ever meet the man or woman, APP
parently physically we'll and mentally
sound, comfortably established and as
well off as the average of their neighbors,
who talked as if he or she badn'ts friend
in the world, no one they would trust, and
never a nod or smile for the passer- by,
never CHEEKY word of greeting for a
neighbor, never simple gift to the little
child?
SIT is hard world, they say. EVERY
body is for self" How the NJ. BIS. pity
such people. Oh! yesi there is such
thing as ingratitude. There is really such
a thing as selfishness. We do not doubt
it. But whether you stay at home or
travel affair, keep watch, and see how often
those you meet, and those you observe
give Of their best and receive it back in
creased according 10 the Scriptural prom
Use.
There are those who think giving means
mostly gifts from the pocket-book. But
tell me truly are those the best gifts you
receive from your friends or they receive
from you? Don't be afraid to give Of
your best.

been established the eternal confidence
between Mrs. Pinkham and the women
OF America which has never been
broken. Out OF the vast volume of
experience which she has to draw from,
it is more than possible that she has
gained the very knowledge that will
help your case. She asks nothing in
return except your goodwill, and her
advice has relieved thousands. Surely
any woman, rich or poor. is very foolish

When TO Aerate Milk.

For a great many years an opinion
prevailed that tae aeratior OF milk
was necessity II was believed that
In the milk was some kind of an ami
NAL odor that could only be taken out
by exposing the milk to the air. In
the factories where the cream was
handled for butter-making or milk TOT
cheese-making, large aerators were
used in some cases. More often, how
ever. this was done in bottling plants
that supplied milk to adjacent cities.
The milk was run over coils in which
circulated brine or ice water. On the
farms the aeration was done by taking
the milk out of doors and pouring II
from one pail to another or stirring
II with a great ladle. While aeration
is still practiced to some extent, 1t Is
not practiced TO the extent 1t used TO
be. Especially is this true on the
farms. Among the better class OF but
ter-makers there Is at the present time
| about as much opinion against aera-
| ton OF milk as there is for IL. The
| old idea OF animal odor in the milk
| concluded by some of the deepest
thinkers and experimenters that the
| so-called animal odors were impurities
| arising from outside sources. When
the milk is properly protected from all
impurities, there is no danger OF there
being animal odor in the milk. There
fore the need of aeration does not eY'
list. We believe, however, that In
some cases milk should be aerated
because we are conscious of the fact
that in many stables doors do get into
the milk. Milk absorbs odors, as dc
many other kinds of food products
II we believe that odors have been
taken into the milk and there Is
good place in which to aerate the
milk it should be aerated. The win
ter season gives purer air for this thar
the summer season.

Strinuy Milk.

Now and then a farmer is puzzled
at the appearance of stringiness in the
milk a few hours after ii is drawn.
He at once imagines that the COW
is sick or that some certain COW has
given this milk and begins hunt for
her. Sometimes the stringiness is
due to a case of garget. but in most
cases il is due to less important
causes. There are certain growths
OF a minute nature, found sometimes

is only one way OF getting rid OF 1t,
and that is by excessive care when

trouble begins with the stirring up

To Secure the Best Cows.

The practice with regard TO the
maintenance of dairy herds in this
state is varied. Some of our farmers
try to breed their own herds, saving
the calves from the best cows, and
thus, by a process of indirect selec-
ton, improve the annual yield of milk
and butter from year to year Many
Of our farmers buy COWS as they need
them, disposing of those that have
proven Improbable to the local butch
er. While dairying is a growing in
dustry in Virginia, it has not made
as much progress as the legitimate
prices obtanable for milk, butter and
other dairy foods would seem to war
rant. There is an increasing desire
for information along dairy lines, and
our farmers are beginning TO realize
that they must have better cows, and
one of the most certain ways to secure
these is through breeding them them.

The unr.dinreed Dairy Cow.

Some of our very best cows are
those that have no pedigrees; in
fact, the greater number of cows
now in the dairy are of this
class. Such men as II. b. Cur
Ter say that they pay no attention
to breed when going to select COW.
They simply pick the best cows they
can find. judging by the usual marks
OF the dairy cows. A man can go
through the country and on multitudes
of farms find COWS that give large
quantities of milk rich in butter-fat,
and yet OF no known breed. These
cows, though having no pedigrees, are
not scrubs. They are the best kind of
foundation stock for the development
OF the common dairy herds of the
country. Many of them are worthy to
receive more attention than they have
received at the hands of dairy experts.
