SOME THOUGHTS ON MILKING
Milk is an animal product just as
much as the flesh that we use as meat
is animal product, and like flesh 1t I'M
dergoes deleterious changes; only that
these changes take place much more
readily in the milk because 1t Is not SO
staple an article as the flesh.
Practically all these changes are due
to bacteria. and the less of the bacteria
that gets into milk the longer 1t will
remain good. Therefore cleanliness in
the dairy is a very important point and
one that is not given the attention by
the average farmer that IL should re-
ceive, and more especially by the dairy
man who sells his milk in the cities
and towns to be used as milk. A very
great difference in the quality Of the
milk can be brought about by q little

stables and cows clean, especially at
milking time. Another important item

1t, works by drawing the air from a
pan, much on the same principal as a
cafe sucking. The machine consists of
caps that fit over the teats instead Of
tubes that run up into the teats and
these tcat caps are attached to the pail
by means OF rubber tubes. The air Is
pumped out of the pail, thus causing
a vacuum and this draws the milk from

DUCHESS OF MARLBOROUGH.

Consuelo, duchess of Marlborough,
plainly is resolved her husband shall
have no complaint against her on the
score of indiscretion. says a writer.
Since her trouble with the duke she
has refused to stir abroad without a
duenna. AS a matron of several years,
she is entitled to play %chaperon her
self, but, instead. she insists on hav-
ing one. Friends of hers in New York
have received letters saying that,
though her health is as robust as it ever
was. she seems for from happy. Per-
haps il her ambitious mamma, when
she married her young daughter to
Marlborough early in the sos, had fore
seen all h unhapplness the girl would
assume with that ducal coronet, she
would have hesitated to carry out what
many persons then condemned as a sac
rifice of little Miss Vanderbilt's future.
Duchess Consuelo finds solace, however,
in the companionship of her little sons,
the marquis of Blandford and Lord Ivor
Spencer Churchill. She and the boys
spent most of last month in the Villa
Macha. Deauville, where she denied
herself to alrnost all visitors, combining
her attention well-nigh exclusively to
the youthful noblemen.

USE OF HENNA.

Henna may be applied in several
ways, but the simplest and easiest
method for the amateur is to use a tea

In preparing the tea. use an ounce OF

the whole down to one pint.
The stain should be applied to the

Next. with an ordinary hair brush,
distribute the henna through the hair.

be covered with a succession of red

CONTAGIOUS OPHTHALMIA IN
CATTLE.

This is a contagious Inflammation Of
the eyes in cattle-commonly called
pink eye. While a majority Of the cat
tie affected recover in from one to two
weeks, sometimes the disease runs a
more rapid course and the animal loses
the sight of one or both eyes. The dis
ease is usually carried from one herd,
to another by introducing a diseased
animal into the herd, or some of the
healthy herd getting mixed with the
diseased ones, and it spreads from ond
animal to another i'll the herd.
The first symptom is a slight waters
