DAILY llAAAElY NOTES
Poor COWS are never clean.

Poor cows are never clean.
No dairy is ever too clean.
Slow ripening of cream produces a
bitter flavor.
Every rapid churn is a failure. 1t
wastes butter fat.
Many a common COW can be made
good with more feed.
Properly managed, dalrying brings
in a constant income.
With calves too low a temperature
of feed causes scours.
The COW that gives much milk must
have plenty to drink.
The best way to keep cows clean is
to use plenty of bedding.
Keep the cows out OF the chilli
ing winds. There is no profit in
chill.
Do not excite the COWS or expose
them to stress of insects, flies or the
weather.
1t is said that the occupation OF
dairying is combining. II this is true,
then it must be good cure for loaf
ing.
Dairy shows, fairs and all the expo
sitions show us what has beer done.
and give US glimpse Of what may be
done.
In dairying there is no excuse
for the man who goes at 1t blindly
to blame luck and weather for his
failure.
Turn the separator with steady
and uniform hand and flush down with
skim milk or water at the end of sep.
aration.
1t is quite customary among dairy.
men to quit feeding calves skim milk
when they attain the age of eight or
nine months.
If you don't believe in keeping cows
comfortable visit the stables of the
men with the big cream check. That
ought to convince you.
Butter for market wrapped in pa,
per will always get the edge in price,
and the expense is trifiing. A quarter
buys a big batch Of butter paper.
Throw away the first few streams OF
milk from the teats. This milk is very
watery and of little value, and is quito
apt to injure tho remainder Of the
milk.

Roses at ono time figured prom.
inently In the pharmacopoeia. Pliny
gives 80 remedies compounded OF
rose leaves and petals. Sufferers
from nervous complaints used to seek
relief by sleeping on rose pillows and
one is told that Helogabalus used to
imbibe rose wine as pick-me-up
after his periodical. gormandizing
hours. The flower was also served
at table, both as garnlsh. in the way
parsley is now used, and as salad,
and rose water was largely used for
flavoring dishes. Roses as food have
gone out OF favor among western ma
tons, but the Chinese still eat rose
fritters.

Surprised Him.

There was fellow who proposed to
all the girls just for fun. He had no
idea of getting himself engaged, but
he enjoyed the prelimlnaries. So he
was disagreeably surprised once and
served him right.

do you think you could love me well
enough to be my wife?"
Yes, darling" she cried.

CASE FOR sPRoUTlNG GRAIN
Cabinet Contains Shelves for Placing
Seeds-Fertilizer Tray Below
Water Reservoir.

Two Missouri men have designed
what appears to be a very complete
cabinet for the sprouting of grain or
other seeds. A series or shelves on
which the seeds are kept slide in and
out. In the sides of the cabinet are
hot air passages and means for con-
trolling the flow of air through them
At the top is reservoir containing
water and leading down from this are
number of pipes with perforations
along their inner surface. There Is
also a fertilizer tray below the water
