the cream, for two reasons, to develo.;
a desirable fiayor and TO improve the
keeping quality. Recent investiga
tons by the United States Department
of Agriculture indicate, however, that
butter rla,i, sruu p1steurized sweet
cream has better keeping qualities and
remains free from Objectionable fav
ors for longer time than butter
made from sour cream. If these facts
are established it might seem that in
the years to come only sweet cream
would be bought for butter making.
Comm rciaI Egg Farm.
The production of market eggs is
probably the safest branch of the poul-
try business, and the amount of CAPT
tai invested need not be very large
In the New England States, New York
and New Jersey there are many COM
mercial egg farms, keeping from 500
to several thousand hens The farm
ers, too, in this section of the country
keep large focks fer eggs for the East
ern markets, and all seem to be do
ing we'll and making money. What
we need in the South is more egg
farms Lands are cheap, material for
housing and labor cheap. and, again,
it is not necessary in the South to
build such expensive houses. We have
every advantage in the Southland for
producing eggs at less cost than our
Northern brothers, and with quick and
satisfactory railroad facilities to the
Eastern markets the South should be-
come the greatest poultry producing
section of the entire country.
Other branches of the poultry indus
try may pay better than egg farming
but none are attended with so little
worry and risk and are so certain of
steady returns and fair remunera-
ton for the time and money expended.
Early Flowing Always Best.
Last summer we got field of wheat
stubble about half plowed when other
work. called us away. The remaining
stubble was turned under early this
spring, and the whole field planted to
corn. The corn ON last summers plow-
ing is now several inches taller than
that on the land plowed this spring,
and is ranker and better in every
other way.
There is difference between sum-
mer and fall blowing, the difference be-
ing in favor of the summer blowing.
Turning a green growth into the soil
seems TO be very much better than
turning an equal growth under, but
waiting until 1t has matured and dried
before doing it. Here on this farm
we aim to do all the blowing possible
this summer. 1t may be hot work but
the days are long and one does not
need to hurry the teams. Not only Is
it better to get the work done as soon
as possible for any crop to be sown
this fall, but our experience proves to
us that the earlier the better If corn
is to be the next crop.-Farmer's Mail

"All this excited talk about the
trouble in Mexico, makes me tired, -
said an American who has lived
and worked a number of years in
the republic across the river to a
Herald man last night For obyi-
Gus reasons he asked that his name
be withheld, for, as he explained it,
in Mexico Americans may think
about political matters but don't
talk about them" But it may be
said that he is of wide acquaintance
among the men whose names are
constantly seen in the papers and
is in position to know the true
state of feeling regarding the ap-
preaching election. There is no
more trouble down there" ne went

the situation in Mexico now. The
rival factions are making a great
deal of noise, but where there is
much noise there is very little ac-

1T is my opinion that Gen Reyes
will soon be eliminated as a factor
in the situation. l really should not
be surprised if he disappeared from

His exact whereabouts is a secret,

prisoner at Galeana, surrounded by
federal troops. / am told on good
authority that Gen. Reyes has late

money have been sent to him.. so il
may be that he has been planning

Will be good for Mexico if he is sent
to the rear, for under a man of his

He is a reactIonary and is bitterly
opposed TO Americans and their de-

ing contrast to the broad and pro-
gressive policy of the present ad-

attitude has helped in the establish

600 shares of Union Pacific traded

Business was very light during

kept rising in spots. AS a whole,
however, fluctuations were quite
