Pork Scraps For Poultry.

Pork scraps are relished by poultry
but are not generally considered as
satisfactory as beef scrap. However,
they analyze about the same, except
that the pork scrap contains rather
more fat. Pork cracklings and beet
cracklings should have about the same
feeding value. They ere not as rich
In protein as prepared scrap, but can
be used as a substitute for a scrap
with quite satisfactory results.

All Danish creameries issue rules for
the general treatment and milking Of
cows That concerning milking is in
teresting. At the top Of the card are
the words, Good Advice" beneath
which are a drawing OF the udder and
teats of COW. with the hand Of the
mixer placed in proper position. On
either side of the card are columns
shaded to indicate the percentage of
fat present in the first milk drawn
from the cow and in the last milk
drawn The rules on the COW are as
follows:
The COW is a living machine. Kindly
treatment entails less labor and gives
more milk. Good work improves the
living machine.
Milk clean. Clean milking develops
the udder and increases the quantity Of
milk, and you receive richer milk. Re
member that the milk last drawn is by
far the most valuable. You should
wear tidy and clean clothes. Have the
pail clean as well as the creamery can.
Thoroughly clean the udder by rubbing
with a piece Of linen. Wash the hands
thoroughly before milking Let the
udder be quite dry before you begin to
milk
Milk with dry hands. Seize the teats
with the whole hand Keep a gentle
pressure on the udder Milk as fast as
you can, and never cease working until
the milk is wholly drawn. Don't strain
the teat beyond its natural length. Re-
member the value of the last drops.
If there be soreness or Jumps in I'D
der or. teats, stoppage in milk canal or
unnatural colored milk, don't mix that
milk with any other. and don't send to
the creamery.
Begin milking always at fixed time.
Milk the same cows in the same order.
Regard this excellent work as one Of
honor. Clean the cows. Have good air
in the stalls. Light should be freely
admitted

MYSTERY OF MANY THINGS
THAT ARE LEFT IN CARS

a railroad terminating in Chicago an
nounces its annual sale of unclaimed
baggage The 2.694 articles to be sold in
clude some things left In the cars and
many more which were checked but
never claimed. The fact that 564 UNI
brellas and sixty canes are among the
number shows that the travelling public
is both careless and suspicious. But tive
seven baby carriages. thirty-six bicycles,
go trunks. 75g satehels and suit cases,
and the other things which were checked,
but for which the railroad has had no
call. and for which II has not been able
10 find an owner after whole year,
have something mysterious about them.
Admitting that One-half OF the articles
failed TO be delivered through the fault
OF the railroad employees. although that
is an Nnprobably high proportion. there
remain hundreds Of pieces of baggage
~Aieh are abandoned by the owners.
Why2 How could thirty-siX persons 60
away and forget their bicycles or seven
their baby carr ages, after checking
them? How could 500 to 1900 persons be
content TO leave their trunks and satch-
els and never ask for them2 Did they
drop dead or were they carried of tC

c. AND AND | l. TEAM FIT
FOR PENNANT RACE
Departmental League Opens
Tomorrow, and Manager
Anderson Is Confident.

They're off-or at least will be to-
morrow. The Departmental Basebah
League will open the season with a
game between the Postoffice and Inte-
rior teams. On Tuesday Commerce and
Labor will try conclusions with the
Treasury team. Manager Anderson and
Captain Kinney are enthusiastic over
the prospects OF the Commerce and
Labor team, while the players are more
than anxious that the pace be fast, as
they feel equal to the best.
Commerce and Labor finished second
last year, and with the champions not
in the league this season, II will be a
hard proposition for any team to beat
out the boys from Secretary Straus'
establishment. Manager Anderson has
been putting the candidates through a
good system Of practice.
Following is the lineup for the team
in Tuesdays opening game: Erwin,
catcher; Evans, first base; Schreiner,
second tase; Herbert, third base; Bile
lasli. shortstop; Kleinschmidt. left field;
Shoemaker, center field; Fenwick. right
field, with either Kinney, Brown, or
Gallagher in the oox.
