Wi.h this change has come a great
change in burial customs.
Tho old time coffin was made in
one anciently familiar style. 1t might
be made OF whitewood or oak or
mahogany. and it might be expen-
sively trimmed, but it was still cot
fin: and by the cabinet-maker or the
undertaken all collins were made. The
modern burial casket is made in hun
dreds of styles and its manufacture
is a business by itself.
Burial caskets CT the least eXD2'-
sive sorts. Of whitewood stained in
imitation of oak or mahogany. may
be bought at a cost not much greater
than that of a coffin; and cloth coy
cred casket may now he had as low
as $40. The great majority are those
ranging in price up to about 500,
and the greatest demand is for cas-
kets black cloth covered.
There are burial caskets covered
with embossed velvet; and metallic
caskets of aluminium and bronze,
burial caskets of bronze costing from
$1,100 to $500; and there are many
caskets, some in great simplicity OF
design and others richly covered,
made in various fine woods.
Here is {, massive burial caskot II
teakwood, its cost $1,000. Here is
casket of dark red mahogany Ni,
ished with marqueterie work, the ~
lay being of sycamore. the price be-
ing 5000. Here. is casket maic
OF what is called vermilion wood, q:
deeper hue than even the darkest
red mahogany and having a beautiful
grain, and here is a simple and beat
tiful casket of white mahogany, this
costing $3.50.
Burial caske:s made Of the silver
maple are very beautiful. or this
natural color the maple would he
livery light. almost white, but to D.
used for this purpose it is so treafe
as to make it gay. and this not Oh
the surface alone but all through. It
is a wood with beautiful natural
markings, and the beautifully marked
gray wood is finished in the made M
casket with a dull smooth polish.
From $500 to $500 the silver maple
caskets cost; mere OF them are sod
in Philadelphia than in any otLe"
city.
American burial caskets in consld-
cradle numbers are now exported to
various foreign countries, including
the West Indies and South America
and England, South Africa and Aus
tralia.

CLEAN DAIRY STABLES.

Each particle Of dust and dirt that
gets into the milk is liable to carry
with it bacteria or germs, which
multiply rapidly when they are in
the warm, sweet milk and taeir de-
velopment causes the milk to deter!O-
rate in food value. Some of these
bacteria produce what is known as
grassy milk. This produces gassy
curd in cheese making. Others pro-
duce bad flayors which are noticeable
in the butter and also in the cheese.
A barn in which the ceiling is COW
cred with cobWebs, these being
blown about or falling down when
ever touched by the attendant Is not
the kind of stable in which to pro-
duce clean, wholesome milk. A stu
bic which contains bad stable odors
is poorly ventilated and contains
foul, bad smelling air, is not tho
place to produce good milk, because
milk abso1bs these bad odors and j.
is almost impossible to get rid of
them. The cow stable should be
clean and as free from dust as pos
sible.-Colman's Rural World.

A NEW SULPHUR WASH.

During the past season the Depart
ment of Agriculture has made an inl-
portant discovery that the self-boiled
lime sulphur wash is not injurious to
peach foliage when properly made and
will not produce russeting and other
injurious effects on apples. Further
mere, it has been found to be as eff
fective as a fungicide as the standard
Bordeaux mixture. Extensive exper-
iments have been carried on during
the year by the Department on near
ly all of the common fruit diseases
which are preventable by spraying
the above mixture is a very useful
one.-Farmers' Home Journal.
