What the Little jap Wrote.

A teacher in Japan copied these
English sentences just as they were
written by japanese pupils:
F'The toothache is disgustable
disease"
E'Though the toothache is a little
disease, it disturbs the soul to a
great degree"
sfThe good man is bold as lion,
but the bad man flew even when no
man drive him."
"My dog is very bark"
''Come here, my amiable cat"

ORIGIN of the Saddle.

Saddles with trees came into use
in the fourth century, and stirrups
were adopted about three centuries
later. The early Greeks and Ro-
mans rode bareback, and when Nero
gave out to his cavalrymen fancy
coverings the hardy German tribes
% sufsen1en were much amused.

THE BUTTERMAKER-

If YOU are making q choice lot OF Dut-
ter (and you should make none other)
it will pay you well to mold it into
pound prints and wrap with parchment
paper bearing a label on which is print
ed the name of the brand, together
with the name and address of the
maker.
Low Speed Loses Butter Fat.
4 test was made of running milk
through the separator at about three
fcurths of the listed speed at the Kan
sas experiment station. 1t appeared
from the result of this test that the
amount of butter fat left in the skim
milk is materially increased by lower
ing the speed of the separator. There
is considerably more loss than where
stparators are run at their listed speed.
Temperature For Cream.
The temperature at which cream
should be churned cannot be stated
with accuracy because much depends
upon the cream itself. Cream from the
1slilk of different COWS cannot always
be churned at the same temperature.
Different feeds have something to do
with it. The period Of location must
be considered. The proper temperature
will be all the way from so to 65 or 6G
degrees, but the lowest temperature at
which the cream will churn is best for
it will make better butter than higher
temperature.
Cleanliness, Always Cleanliness.
A poorly washed strainer, milk pans
or any utensil used about milk affects
the flavor of butter. Cleanliness Is the
most important adjunct to the dairy
business. When everything is kept
clean, there is little complaint Of bac-
terra or trouble of any other kind.
What Makes Good Butter.
Good butter is not the result of any
one particular point of superior excel
lence, but q combination of all the de-
tails. In methods Of management con-
ditions vary SO much that no one set
of rules will be applicable in all cases.
1t is very important to do what Is nee
essary to be done at the right time
and in the right manner.

Fishing For Sheep.

Fishing For Sheep.
When sheep were introduced into
Cornwall, England, a flock of them
ran into the sea and were foated by
their wool. Some fishermen saw
them and, thinking them to be a
new species of fish, made haste to
try to catch them with hooks and
nets. Next morning they brought
home catch whose value was great
er than any load their boats had
ever carried.

RED STAR STEAMER
BUCKED BREAKWATER
The Finland Tried to Make a Landing
at Dover, England, With the
AID Of Tugs. and Came to
Grief.

Dover, Eng. Oct 20.-The Red Star
line steamer Finland. from New York,
October 10, for Dover and Antwerp,
struck the western end Of the southern
breakwater last night while entering
this port. She sustained damage to her
bow which viii necessitate her remain
ing here until this afternoon for re.
pairs.
No lives were lost, but n man who was
working on the breakwater at the time
had his thigh broken and had to be re.
moved to a hospital The force Of the
impact greatly damaged the stone work
Of the breakwater. The Finland Is now
moored at the Prince Of Wales pier. Her
bow is severely buckled, the plates hay-
ing been driven back for about 20 feet.
A survey has been made and her bulk.
head win have to be strengthened before
she can proceed
Two tenders had left this harbor as
usual to bring off the English passengers
from the steamer. The night was clear
but dark For some unexplained reason
the Finland made for the harbor and
started to steam in without the assist
ance from tugs usually used by big
liners.
Immediately after the collision she
signalled for lifeboats and in response
the boats were prepared. But as the
tugs at once got her in tow, the boats
were not launched. The damage to the
steamers bow extends below the water
