NARROWING THE HIGHWAY.
Treatment of the Roadbed Which
Will Keep It in Good Condi-
ton at All Times,

When the road is dry enough to
work on, and L am afraid that dust
is already flying in some places, give
it a thorough dragging with either peg
or spring-tooth harrow, recommends a
correspondent of the Rural New York
er. This fills the ruts, levels the sur
face, and gives the road machine 4
much better show, as it stands to rea-
son that when the road machine Is
used without narrowing, the large ruts
are only partially filed; and even
where filled completely with loose dirt,
the first wagon that passes shows you
exactly where to drive If you care to
be in it." On the other hand, where
the harrow has been used a few days,
or even hours, previous to the scraper,
the old channels stand chance of get
ting some packing along with the fill
ing. as each wagon that passes helps
the good work along Only the
other day while we were dragging, our
mail carrier exclaimed: Talk all you
want to about your road machines,
that old 40. tooth of yours does the
biz" OF course the road machine has
its place as a ''turnpiker," for good
drainage, high and somewhat round
ed surface are essential in maintain
Ing a good road.

BETS AND CARROTS.
Shaw, But Too Expensive
Feed

a dairyman of Abbotsford Mich.
is desirous of finding out the value of
sugar beets and carrots for dairy
COWS. He also asks for the experience
OF others who have fed them.
Sugar beets make an excellent food
Tor dairy cattle, but the cost of grow
ing them is more than the cost of
growing mangels, hence where roots
are grown for dairy cows, mangels
are usually preferred to sugar beets.
The tonnage of mangels is consider
ably greater, and the labor is also con-
siderably less. For milk production.
the difference in value of the two is
not great, pound for pound, but the
value of the sugar beet is more in
fattening animals.
Carrots are excellent for milch cows,
but the same objection applies to
them that applies to the growing OF
sugar beets, that is, the labor AS with
beets, 1t takes much time to thin :hem
and also to harvest and store them.
he labor, however, is much Influenced
by the variety grown, the Mastodon.
! large white variety, being one of
the best.

TWO DAIRYING DELUSlONS
Regarding Poor Cows and Mar
ket Quota ations.

Some one says that if all the cows
were brought up to a high standard
pf production it would bring down the
price of the product. said w. D. Hoard.
of Wisconsin. at the late Illinois state
farmers institute. Keeping poor, un-
1t COWS for the purpose of holding up
prices of butter and milk is hard on
he constitution. The surplus of dairy
products comes from cows that bring
70 profit tc their owners. Eliminate
the poor cows and there will be no sur
plus.
Too many farmers keep their eyes On
the market. They cannot affect the
price one dot or little. They can il
they will reduce the cost of produc-
ton. Lots of money is to be made by
a wiser administration of the farm end
of the business. This is the only end
that is wholly within our control.
Right here reign supreme th, man be-
Lad the COW. u

COW SLIPS.

1t pays to be amiable in the COW
stable.
Sell the butter-fat and feed the
slim-milk.
Never strike a COW. Never speak
roughly to her.
For dairy cows. lover hay is worth
more than timothy.
A good. properly kept COW stable
has no offensive odor.
Land plaster should be used freely
in the stables to absorb odors.
Pet the cows; pet the heifers; give
them little sugar with the salt.
Sugar will help gentle any COW that
is inclined to be nervous and wild.
Try it.
Use small tin pals or buckets for
the calves. and wash and scald tho
pals daily.
Are you feeding cheese COW trying
to get butter? Use your scales and
Babcock test and find out for sure
Farm Journal.
More calves die from scours caused
by drinking from filthy pals where
all sorts of germs multiply, than tAoin
any other cause.

Women and Matrimony.

Those who keep n close watch on
womens ways profess to see de-
cided falling off in enthusiasm
among the fair sex concerning the
right and opportunity to cook and t-e
increasing fields in which they may
find chance to earn money or gain a
livelihood. Women are beginning to
find out" says close student of this
burning question, that work is work,
after all, and that competition grows
fercer all the time. Young women
who come from the country districts
with high hopes of independence and
ideals about living their own life un-
trammeled by old traditions soon learn
that il is struggle harder than any
they might encounter at home. Then
their views change and they begin to
think much better of matrimony as a
vocation than they did before. 1t will
be some time before this new feeling
will have much weight in lessening
the present rush of women into al
avenues of labor, but there will be an
effort in time and the rush will sub
side. The shadow of independence
rather than the substance is all that
many women gain, and this is t--ns
slowly realized"

Kansas Parking I'm

These days of volcanoes and earth
quakes the Kansan looks at his occa-
sional flood and sometimes drouEhts
and almost forgotten grasshoppers
with commendable liberation. The
season may go dry or it may come
wet; there may be a little hollow horn
among the cattle and few chinch
bugs in the whea.; the wind may
blow the title TO the land over in the
next county now and then or droughts
may shrivel the coupons on the mort
cages once in awhile, but after all
Kansas is good place to live in.
Even though the cyclone may galIOp
along and remove a few of the Kan
sas farmers goods and chattels, the
wind brings him enough of his neigh
hors' household goods on the low
er so across the creek to start house
keeping. And always, says the En-
poria Gazette, there is a chance to
slide into the 'fraid hole and let the
winds blow and the storms rage. But
an earthquake turns the 'fraid hole
wrong side out and shakes its occu-
pants down on the under side of it
Kansas is mighty safe place for a
man to live in.

Des Mones.-''I do solemnly declare
and here publicly announce that the
basis of reunion and union is now in

reunited with the Presbyterian Church
in the United States of America as one
church.

General Assembly Thursday, May 24th,
Moderator Hunter Corbett officially es.
tablished the union of the Cumberland
Church with the Presbyterian Church
in America.
The big ecclesiastical assemblage
burst into a storm of rejoicing. Hand
clapping, cheers and waving of hand
kerchiefs gave expression to unalloyed
pleasure. The consummation devoutly
wished and worked for through many

MILK SEPARATION.
Principles Governing the Extraction
of the Butter Fat from
the Milk.

| TIE force that is used to separate thu
milk is known as centrifugal force.
| says Edwin H.. Webster. This force
may be described as the pun that is
| ielt when weight attached to n
string is whirled about the hand. 1t
| Is the pull outward, and the faster the
weight is whirled the stronger the pull
becomes.
In the old system of creaming, the
separation is caused by the action OF
gravity. The fat globules, being light
er than the other portions of the milk.
are forced to the top; that is, gravity
acts stronger or pulls harder on the
heavier portions than 1t does on the
lighter, and the milk is gradually ar
ranged in layers, the lighter portion at
the top and the heavier portion at the
bottom
The forcing action in the separator
has precisely the same action on the
milk but acts outwardly from the cen
ter nf the bowl the same as gravity
acts downward from the surface, only
many thousand times stronger. accom-
plishing in few moments and far
more completely what it takes gravity
several hours to do.
As the milk goes into the bowl 1t is
at once thrown to the outermost parts
and fills the bowl completely until an
opening is reached where it will how
out again.
The surface of the milk is on live
parallel with the center. or axis, of tie
bowl, and is exactly in line with tn.
cream outlet.
A cross-section through the bowl
from this surface to the outside pre-
sents much the same appearance as
would pan of milk after the cream
has raissd by gravity.
The CT eam is on the surface. which
might be called the top, and the heav-
ier portions of the milk at the point
farlhest from the center. which would
represent the bottom.
With this understanding OF the ar
rargement of the milk in the bowl
there are number of things to be
observed which influence the separn-
tion.
The difference in length of time it
takes to separate cream by gravity and
by centrifugal force shows plainly that
the time varies with the amount of
force applied. The shorter the time the
greater the force must be.
Skim-milll from the separator con-
tains less fat than that secured by the
gravity system, showing that the great
er force causes more perfect separi-
tion.
From the above statement the fol
lowing conclusions regarding the use
OF the sepa rator may be drawn:
/. If the amount of milk that
rasses through the separator in
given time Is a fixed quantity, any
increase in the speed of the machine
will tend tu cause closer skimming be-
cause of iha greater force exerted.
2. If the amount Of milk that
passes through in a given time is in
creased ard the speed remains the
same the s'Iimming will not be so per-
feet, for the centrifugal force is not
eXerted or the milk so long time.
1t is evident. therefore. that the
cioseness rf skimming is the result of
two factof.-time and force. If either
CT these u decreased. the result will
he poorer Z ork. If either is increase ],
better wofi: will result.
