A CONVENIENT CREAMERY.

cool room has double wall filled with
sawdust as a special isolation. The
ice chest opens by heavy window to
the outside, where the ice supply may
be put in. A large upright steam
boiler furnishes steam for the engine
and power is supplied from the shaft
for all the dairy machinery, as we'll
as other machines located outside Of
this building.
A small gasoline water heater pro-
vides steam and hot water for wash
ing dairy utensils when the large
boiler is not running, explains the

BILE located in the center of the work
room is a steam nozzle, which is very
convenient for steaming vessels after
they have been washed. The drain to
the floor of the main work room is To-
Gated directly under this table, and
the surface of the entire floor slopes
toward it. This building is so located
that besides being the creamery, it
also contains the central office and
power plant of the farm.

Kicking Cow.

The habit may be cured in very
simple way, provided the milker has
sufficient self-control and tact in hand
ling animals. Taking a good short
whip under the left arm, let him be-
gin his milking as usual, and the mo-
ment the cow raises her foot to kick
give her one single cut with the whip
Never repeat this until she starts to
kick again. and each time she raises
her foot to kick again, and each time
resume milking with quiet stroking
with the hand and kind word Re-
ceiving one cut from the whip each
time she raises her foot to kick, the
COW quickly associates cause with ef-
feet, and gives up an action which pro-
duces a painful sting. This method,
says the Country Gentleman, is wholly
Intellectual If the mixer loses his
temper and gives the COW several
blows; equally so If he neglects to
strike her with the whip when her
kick does no harm.

DOROTHY fuckers DAIRY WIS
DOM.

We have come to the time of the
year when we must watch our cows
very carefully. A little neglect now
will cause serious loss later in the sea-
son.
Near calving time COWS should be
kept warm and out of draughts. If
cows are turned into the yards, it
should be only on fine, warm days.
1t is good plan to put COW in a
box stall a week or two before due
to calve. Then she will become ac.
customed to her quarters and be free
from nervousness.
AS rule, grain should be withheld
unless the cow is weak.
Bran mashes should be frequently
given.
Do not let the cows out for the
night until the earth is really warm.
II the cows lie in cold places at night,
1t will rob them of vitality and you OF
milk.
See that the oxen at work are kept
shod A team can be injured much
by slipping. Keep a barrel of sand
at the door of the COW stable and
spread it when it is icy. This method
may save dollars in some choice ami
NAL.

HISTORIC BITS.

Henry VIII. of England.
The first steamer to sail from Liverz
pool for New York was the Royal Will
liam, 407 tons, commanded by q.
Swanson, r. N; she sailed July 5,
1888, and was 10 days on the trip. The
first transatlantic screw steamer was
the Massachusetts, taken out in 1S47
by Capt. r. B. Forbes.
In the middle ages swings were hung
by an ingenious pulley device. The
rope was passed over a grooyed wheel
that was fastened to the ceiling by :,
bracket. The one who was swinging
was not only pushed from behind by
one of his fellows, but was also helpe
from the front by striking with his
foot the outstretched foot of another
comrade. This sport was a favorite
pastime of pages.
The first steamer to make a voyage
across the Western ocean was the Sa-
vannah of $50 tons and length of 100
feet. She sailed from Savannah Nav
lolJ, anu dIllNCu dL LlNtlpOOl

for when the wind was fair or the sea
high the paddle wheels were unshippel
and slowed on deck. Her voyage was
continued to Russia, and on the return
from st. Petersburg she reached New
York direct in 26 days.

string through holes in fiat piect

HAD HEART PAINS
"A Critical Case of rheumatism Cured
BY Dr.WiIIiems' Pink Pills,


BY Dr.Wiliiems' Pink Pills.
While Mr.. w. s. Geisel, of No. 1876
East Coates street, Moberly, Mo-, was
steadily working ut his trade in foun-
dry at thtt place, he became the victim
of an attack of rheumatism, and his ex-
perience is that of thousands who are
compelled to work in similar surround
ings. He describes his situation as fol-
lows:
"I had been ut work for long time
in q foundry where was exposed to
dampness. First my feet began to Sprt
and to swell, then my knees and my
shoulder joints began to be affected in
the same way. Finally I could not walk
without great difficulty and suffering
and had to stop work altogether. My
appetite was feeble and grew very pale
and weak. began to have pains about
my heart and it futtered great deal.
i became greatly alarmed about my con-
dition. My mother knew about the vir.
tues of DIR. Williams Pink Pills, as thew
had given her back her health when she
was nearly wasting to death, and when
she found that they were good for rheu-
matism too, she began to give them to
me about month after was attacked.
That was in the early part of March,
1908. and by June they had driven away
the pains and swelling and had restored
my appetite and color. Then felt
strong enough to take up line of out
door work and now, in October, re-
gard myself as entirely we'll and I am
about to go into foundry again at st.
I Louis.'
DR.. Williams Pink Pills also cure
other diseases springing from i'm.
pure blood or disordered nerves, such
as sciatica, locomotor ataxia, partial
paralysis and all forms of weakness in
male or female. They may be had at
all druggists or directly from the DIR.

THE OLD COFFEE HOUSES.
Some Ancient establishments as Ad-
vertised in Papers of the
Time.

Our ancestors coulu little imagine
that their descendants would be re-
duced to the necessity of sending to
the East and West Indies for the ma
terials for comfortable breakfast. 1t
is observed that while Nathaniel Con-
opius, Cretan baron, continued in
Balliol college, in Oxford, which he
left in 164S, he made the drink for his
own use called coffee and usually
drank it every morning, being the first
coffee, as the ancients of that house
Informed him, that was ever drunk in
OXon.
In the year 1850, we learn, Jacob
opened a coffee house at the Angel, in
the parish of St. Peter in the east,
Oxon, and there IL was, by some who
delighted in novelties, drunk. In 1854
Cinques Jobson. a Hebrew and Jacob

In his house against All Souls Coll.

majesty's return and after, and then
they became more frequent and had

1867 presented by the Inquest of st.
Dunstan's in the west for making and
selling sort of liquor called coffee as
great nuisance and prejudice of the
neighborhood. And who could then
have thought London would ever have
had near 5000 such nuisances and that
coffee would have been Gas now, 17OS)
SO much drunk by the best of quality
and physicians?"
In the Kingdoms Intelligencer, a
weekly paper, published by authority
in 1862. are inserted four advertise
ments, the last of which is as follows:
AT the coffee house, in Exchange al
ley, is sold, by retail, the right coffee

Likewise there you may have choc-

he tried them on a fox, who ate them
