Eatherinu Cream.

What is to hinder the patrcn OF
a creamery. who used to haul his milk
every day, from hauling his cream
every day, or providing in some man
ner that it shall get to the creamery
every day? It is the biggest kind OF a
humbug for him to say that he could
afford to deliver the milk every day,
but cannot afford to deliver the cream
as often, says Hoafd's Dairyman.
On the contrary, he can much more more
afford to deliver the cream, for he does
not have to wait for the skim milk
and haul It back, and he has the prom
ise of an increase in the price OF the
butter if he will deliver the cream
fresh and sweet The farm separator
helps him utain SO many other ways
that he can richly afford to get that
cream to the creamery every day,
as he delivered the milk. But, the
creamery people and the patrons are
fioundering around, in a general state
of scolding.
why not start a campaign OF edu-
cation to shov the farmer that he can
better afford to deliver the cream every
day than he eou1dsthe milk2 ff

the method successfully pursued by
DR.. Peters, Veterinarian at the Nebras-
ka Experiment Station for combating
the pest He took an ordinary OIL
barrel and put into it a wooden spigol,
using the barrel as a storage tank.
Two and half gallons OF zenoleum,
with five gallons Of cottcnseed Oil,
were placed in the barrel and enough
water added to fill it. AS required,
the mixture thus formed was drawn
from the barrel and sprayed upon cat

sponge or cloth as occasion demanded
The control Of the flies was not only
quite perfect, but it had one marked
advantage not possessed by most 9TH

the solution was not greasy and sticky

Notes on Sheep.

sNOSCS OH 0TSSP.
Medium sized sheep usually have the
best and heaviest feeces.
All flocks should be graded according
to age, size and condition as far as is
practicable.
To give best results not over 90
members &C mutton sheep should be
penned together.
Rough hillsides, if they are covered
with rich grasses, make the very best
pasture land for sheep. tlsa
Turnips may be made use of as fall
feed Turn the flock into the field and
let them cut the turnips. a5T .
The best fleece will ever be the. mark
Of the best sheep, provided, of course,
that it has a good thrifty form.
One good sheep will usually bring
in more in profit than two poor ones.
Usually the poor ones are kept at a
loss. ~~
The fleece and the carcass make
up the sheep and if either is inferior.
the sheep is inferior, no difference how
good the other may be. - s.
The most unfavorable conditions
under which sheep can be grown is
to constantly subject, them to feed
ing on low marshy pastures.
The, end in view in keeping sheep
is profit, and the question is how best
to conduct the business to obtain a
profit from the growing. of wool or
mutton. esE 81 @S5a4

Is He a Coward?

: What do you think of the following
item, from the American .Cultivator?
Strange how the man who so freely
clubs his well meaning horses and
COWS on every slight pretext, yet man
ages to get along with some very try
ing people without hint of harsh
measures Is it because he knows the
people are very likely to strike back,
while the animals will not? That
sounds like the position of a coward
and bully; and it is to be feared there
is a strong flavor of both in the make
up of the man who abuses animals.

6ARELEGGED COSTUMES.

Yale Professor Says It is Barbarious
a to Dress Children in Them. I
In an address to the New Haven
Mothers club recently published in
book form, Professor. Lafayette B.
Mendel. of ] the. .Sheffield Scientific
School,, Yale, makes Vigorous pro-
test against the. practice Of dressing
children in Darelegged costumes.
AT early ages he says, I've find
different degrees of readiness in diff
ferent animal species, in regard to
their ability to perform the functions
peculiar to the fully developed indiv-
iduaL Freqnentlyaadequale digestive
powers, are not matMed at birth, and
more often the best regulating me-
chanism is imperfectly developed. The
young child; as we'll as, the chick or
the mouse, or the kitten, is unable to
maintain its body temperature per-
fectly. Owing to the peculiar reasons
regulating mechanism with which the
organism is endowed, the body tenn
perature is remarkably constant, de-
spite varying external conditions. But
when newly born puppies, kittens and
rabbits are removed from their usual
warm surroundings, their temperature
will become lowered until it reaches
point a few degrees above the tenn
perature OF the surrounding air. In
human infants the conditions cores
pond with those found in young ami
mails of the more dependent class.
The infantile temperature is variable,
and the readiness with which temuera-
ture Irregularities manifest themselves
on slight provocation, even to children
Of several years growth, is familiar
to every observing mother. z
1T remains for us, therefore. to
learn the proper lesson from this de-
fenceless condition of the young amid
their older environment. We learn
to appreciate what warm clothing
means to the naked infant, otherwise
helpless in it's resistance to the at
mosphere about it, am ready to be-
lieve that not a little additional pain
and crying among infants are ulti-
mately attributable to the thought
less exposure of arms and legs, even
in summer months The invigorating
thrill which cold in the form OF cold
bath OF cold sleeping room arouses
in an adult is scarcely attained at
those ages where the temperature
regulating mechanism is not yet
thoroughly developed: and therefore
am inclined to believe that the pre-
valent practice of dressing young boys
and girls in short socks at certain
seasons is inadyisable, if not actually
barbarOus. Man has instinctiyely
protected himself against the un'
pleasantness of cold environment by
the adoption Of clothing. The extent
Of this protection is varied with the
climate in which he resides. In ou1
average climate about 80 per cent OF
the body is. ordinarily clothed. The
barred leg costumes Of the present
| mode may leave as much as 30 pei
cent to 40 per cent OF the child's body
surface exposed Some Of us have
| noticed that even in adults the kiltie
| suit may become -uncomfortably COO
on New Haven summer day, lsWha
shall we expect in the less resistan
child during cool autumn weather." +

Horse, and Harness.

ate allows in the spring the horses

must he in shape to render maximum
of service and this they cannot do It
they are continually CALLED by the col
lar or annoyed by some one CT more
of the straps composing the harness.
Therefore before there is need for the
use OF the harness in the plOw or the
harrow the farmer should pay the
most particular attention to have it
put into perfect repair and to have
it fit each horse properly.
The writer has used horse for the
last four springs on general farm and
garden work which included pulling
alone nine-inch plough and hauling
very heavy loads Of manure up hills
measuring together around mile in
distance and never yet has there been
even suspicion OF soreness about his
shoulders and this too despite the fact
that before he came into the writer's
possession he never did springs
work without having his shoulders
very badly CALLED high UP as well as
low down toward the point. A perfect
" fitting collar and washing the shQul-
dersss at noon and at night, first with
strong brine and then with tepid clear
water have kept them in perfect con
dition. The collar itself is sponged
clean daily
The ideal fit of harness is best de-
scribed in the old expression, neither
teo free nor to bind, which, being in
terpreted means that the harness
should be buckled just tight enough to
give q sense of support but not so
/ tight as to exert undue pressure.
Straps that are too short here and
others too long there, mean misery to
the horse. The bride should claim
attention according to the shape of the
head and the disposition of the horse.
The cheek pieces should be so adjusted
in length that the bit does not lie too
far down on the tongue, necessitating
continual stamping to keep it up
against the cheeks, nor yet SO high up
as to elevate the corners of the mouth
and press containually against the
cheeks. fs azn
A little Of time taking by the fore
lock to get the ''graith" in perfect
condition will mean saving when it
is necessary to work the horses at the
hard continuously Juggling tasks in the
| ploW and harrow.
