When Dayton was voted dry" by Il
majority of two to one. the new To-
cal option statutes were not in effect
and the contest which resulted in the
closing of the saloons was purely
municipal one. Regulations control
ing the liquor traffic under the local

Fat in Milk.

1t can not be that the butter fat In
milk Is obtained from the fat stored
IN the tissues Of the COW, otherwise the
animal would soon become emaciated.
Cows obtain the butter fat in milk
from the food they eat and digest, and
not from the reserve or accumulation
Of fat in their bodies. Reason as well
as observation teaches that cows ex-
tract butter fat from the food they
consume and digest, and to produce a
large percentage of cream the rations
Of the cow should be rich in the ele-
nents Of nitrogen and carbohydrates,
which are found in linseed meal, mid
ilings, bran, corn meal and ground
BATS. At the Cornell University cows
that yielded 200 pounds of butter fat
annually under ordinary feeding yield
cd $40 pounds when given liberal
rations of feed rich in nitrogen, and
carbohydrates. Cream will not make
outter unless 1t contains fat, and
profitable fats will not be produced
unless cows are fed on rations rich in
the elements that produce cream.

killing Quack Grass.

A Michigan farmer gives these in
structions for killing quack grass:
Plow five or six inches deep in the
growing season, say April, May and
June. Give it good digging, then
cultivate with a cultivator that has
teeth close enough so they will cut
the roots two or two and one-half
inches under the ground. The secret
is to keep it from getting to the sur
face. 1t wants holding down six
weeks. 1t does not take expensive
tools. I use an old-fashioned cult
vator that was bought fifty years ago.
1t has seven teeth, three in front, four
in rear; each tooth cuts six inches
wide. 1t is good to drag 1t over after
three or four days. cultivate once
week for six weeks; 1t has never
failed me yet The roots will be dead
as hay. 1t is good for Canada thistles.
If one is doubtful, take rod or more
square and keep 1t down for six
weeks and see how it works. This was
done with a hoe on two acres, and 100
bushels Of smutnose corn were raised
to the acre, planted in drills one foot
apart and hoed to kill.

me substance left in the ground
after the fertilizer has decaved IL
known as "humus.". In order to Sc,
cure the greatest results from the fer
tiiizer and to get the largest possible
quantity of humus, it is necessary that
the soil be moist when the fertilizer
is plowed under, Only small amount
OF humus Is obtained from the turned
under fertilizer should the ground be
dry.
When the fertilizer is allowed to lie
upon the surface for a period, exposed
10 the sun, much good is lost from
tne fact that 1t forms but small

therefore 1t Is important that the soil
should always be moist when fertilizer
OF any kind is plowed under.
In many ways humus benefits the
SOIL. In the first place, it makes the
SOIL lighter as we'll as loosen. This
condition allows good ventilation and
gives chance for poisonous gases to

Digging Potatoes.

The time Is near when farmers will
be digging their potatoes, and then is
the time to select the seed for another
year; when a hill of nice, smooth po-
tatoes is found, free from scab or rot,
and a goodly number are just the
shape and size wanted for table use,
put them one side. At night gather
them up and put them away for seed
next spring. You will be surprised to
see how you can change the type and
improve them in few years, says a
Vermont contributor to the American
Cultivator. We do this every year,
and, while our townspeople are com.
planning Of their potatoes running out
and buying of us to renew their seed,
we are planting potatoes (Green
Mountalns) that started from the seed
that was bought for SIS bushel when
they first came around. If farmers
would take as much pains in selecting
their seed potatoes as they do their
seed corn, we would not hear so much
complaint about potatoes running out.

MILKING AN INDIAN COW.

A striking feature Of the morning
routine of an Indian compound, writes
Mary Anable Chamberlain in the At
lantic Monthly, is the method of ex-
tracing milk from the domestic COW.
This animal is, as is well known, sa.
cred in India, and the attitude of the
Hindu toward her is one of extreme
tenderness and consideration; a caste
man is always her keeper.
Although ever so sacred, the COW
makes no pretense to holiness in her
conduct. As her keeper moves for.

fiber Of the by no means invincible
cord. He Is a tallish man for a Hin.

A glance shows you that you are
about to be treated for once to that
unwonted spectacle of male subdued
by female. The man's-and a caste
mans, at that-demeanor Is humble.
The COW Is defiant. He cossets her,
coaxes her, indicates tactfully which
way he would have her go. She shakes
her head, losses It scornfully, indi-

Then they all surround the COW, and

Is to be MIXED.
Here again the caste mans frame
of mind is one of humble submission.
He gives her time to collect herself
and to forget the mem-sahib's skirts,
and approaches her in a spirit Of en-
tire friendliness, of which he assures
her by the dulcet tones of his voice.
She finally consents to impart her
milk, thin, colorless liquid, which,
in the most liberal estimate, does not
exceed a pint or two.

Lazy hens cause much of the high

Many a hen that is otherwise we'll

Hogs md straw RlcIz..

Some farmers think that a straw
rick is a good place for the SOW and
her brood to sleep. This is a mistake.
1t is best to keep them away from the
straw pile winter and summer. In the
winter the pigs will burrow beneath
the straw, get too warm and take cold
when they come out into the freezing
atmosphere. Coughing and wheeling
is the result, and the pigs do no good
or die. Besides, If burrowed beneath
the straw they are liable to be stepped
on and seriously injured or killed by
the stock running to the rick.
During the summer months especial
ly should the SOW and her young be
fenced from the straw pile. If they
burrow down into the half rotted
straw they will be very apt to con-
tract some disease.

Rye as Horse Feed.

Rye is good grain to feed horses.
1t is equal to oats and wheat, but it
must be ground middling fine and
mixed with cut straw or cut hay.
The straw or hay should be, cut into
half-inch lengths, moistened with wa
ter and the rye meal we'll mixed with
it. 1t is very sticky and horses can
not get the meal without eating the
straw or hay with it. In feeding corn
to horses we always grind half rye
with the corn to make the corn meal
stick to the cut straw. Corn and rye
ground together in equal proportions
and mixed with bright cut straw
moistened with water make well-bal-
anced ration, equally as good, as eager
ly sought after by horses and a cheap
er horse feed than oats and hay.
