n. rarn C-..m SEPARATES.

The Farm Crsam SEPARATES.
Butter making In the home dairy
and creamery has been almost revo-
lutionized by the introduction Of the
farm separator, which separates
cream from milk by q centrifugal
process. The shallow pan or crock
system and the deep-setting system
have been largely eliminated, and
with their exit considerable part Of
the drudgery Of the household disap-
peared. The farmer Is now no longer
required to make the daily trip to the
creamery; he can retain the skim milk
to feed his calves and pigs and de-
liver the cream, sweet, every other
day, when properly cared for. and
this substitution of cream delivery for
milk delivery by creamery patrons
saves them labor and millions of dol
lars yearly in expense.-Report Secre-
tary United States Department OF

stoppaee of Milk Flow.

A very common trouble in every
dairy is to find an animal with the
point of the teat closed, either due to
a bruise of teat itself or to infection
of the milk duct which causes a lit
tie scab to form, and unless this IS
properly handled with care and clean
illness the infection is apt to cause q
loss of the entire quarter. Thoroughly
wash the part in an antiseptic solu-
ton; then dip teat plug into heal
ing ointment and insert it. allowing
same to remain from one milking to
another. In this manner closure can
be overcome in a very simple and sat
isfactory way. milking tube should
not be used If 1t can possibly be avoid
ed. as there is much danger of infect
ing the entire quarter by its use.-

night adopted resolutions condemning
what 1t alleges To be the policy OF

ton to the appointment of colored
men to Office and have tended 10 JUS
tify the new constitution adopted in
southern states designed TO eliminate

Appointments made by the presi-
dents are criticised, especially those
of Democrats with alleged ante bellum
tendencies. The appointment of a

cially is cited. The attitude of the
president has had an effect prejudicial
to the Negro in industrial life, IT is

jected to.
The resolutions denounce the 'ex-

BAY CITY, Mich. May 2S.-The In

night makes the case more complex
than ever. The attorney for Roland

contends that she was killed by fall
and that the cash In her head was
made SO large because her scalp was
fragile due to her advanced age.
There were two gashes in the WON
ans had--one on each side. II Is plain
the defense will stand by its conten-
tion that the smaller cash was made
. by Mrs. Coryeon striking her head
against q door catch and that the
other, which Is a much bigger wound.
was caused by her striking the floor.
At the inquest last night Drs. NC

Through long grilling examination.
Prosecutor Hitchcock probed the case
ITO establish the murder theory. and
|Attorney l.. p. Coumans, counsel for
IRich, and K. 8. Bissell, the prisoners

Theory that death was due to fall.
|Rich's attorney indicated plainly what
the defense Will be when he asked the
| pl ysicians whether such a cut that
WIS found in Mrs. Coryeon's head
could be made by striking the head
|against a door-catch during fall. All
three physicians replied that II was
possible. Drs. McLurg and Scrafford
said II was their unqualified opinion
that the crushed skull was caused by
a heavy blow and all three physicians
said II was very improbable that fall

whether the fall was from chair III
