Leaf by leaf the roses fall


Drop by drop the springs run dry;
One by one beyond recall,


Summer beauties fade and die;
But the roses bloom again,


And the spring will gush anew,
In the pleasant April rain


And the Summer sun and dew.
SO, in hours Of deepest gloom,


When the springs of gladness fall,
And the roses in the bloom


Droop like maidens wan and pale,
We shall find some hope that lies


Like silent gem apart,
Hiden far from careless eyes


In the garden of the heart.
Some sweet hope to gladness wed,
That will spring afresh and new,
When griefs winter shall have fed,
Giving place to rain and dew
Some sweet hope that breathes of Spring,
Through the weary, weary time,
Budding forth its blossoming,


In the spirits glorious cline.

requisite of good cheese is good clean milk
A very little foreign substance tells largely
in milk, more than in almost any other fluid
Our cheese makers must think of this and
govern themselves accordingly.


Mf. willard says the milk rooms are per-
feet models of neatness, having stone floors
and the joints cemented together so that no
slops or decomposed milk can find entrance.
They are situated in a cool airy place. and
the walls are of stone or hollow brick, thus
rendering them cool and of even temperature.
Every part is well ventilated and beyond the
reach Of disagreeabie or fetid odOrs, and all
The dishes and utensils and floors are kept
perfectly clean and sweet,


How will such a description compare with
some OF our cheese rooms? This is an i'm
portant question. If we mistake not we have
visited some cheese rooms that smet rather
sour and the odors arising from floors, walls.
tubs, pals and strainers were anything but
agreeable. Now in such a room it is quite
impossible to make good cheese or firkin
of sweet butter. As before stated milk is a
good absorbent OF bad odors, and it holds
them.


No wonder the English cheese made in
such clean, sweet rooms excels ours in fine,
clean, agreeable flavor which is distinguish
ed characteristic of their choice cheesees.
How can such clean favored cheese be made
among fetid odors of whey slops, decomposed
milk and dirty dishes? Let it be remembered
too that this putrid incubation does not show
its whole character at first, but, like an insid-
ious poison in the blood, increases from week
TO week until the cheese sends out the "most
villanous smell that ever offended nostrils." /"


Mr. Willard says he has been extremely
mortified while testing cheese abroad, to catch
the taste and smell of putrid rennet and OF
the stables. Putrd rennet Yes, and too
much of it, That is one great trouble with
some OF our chees makers. No wonder the
mother fly is anxious to deposit her eggs in
such cheese, for there she knows by the
smell that she will quickly hatch into life and
grow fat. But we have now exceeded our
limits. In another article we shall speak of
this matter again, and show more of the pro-
cess OF making Cheddar cheese.

A great deal OF corn is wofulIy wasted
after all the trouble and expense Of plow-
leg, planting and harvesting. This
waste is absolutely wicked, snd with
tritiing extrs care may be easily reme-
died. In the first place, Ia husking q
vigilant look out should be kept that no
unrips, unsound ear or half-made "nub-
bin y goes in with the pile that it Is TO go
into the crib. The pig pen is the better
place for all such material. One uusound
ear may, and often does, damage q
bushel Of sound corn.


Next, wherever you are going to put
corn to keep, put coal or gas tar about
the premises pretty literally first. 1t is
an utter abOminasi0n to rats and mice.
They will not board in corn crib IA
vored pretty strongly with gas tar. Half
8 dollars worth will very likely save
ten dollars worth of corn. Very many
people seem to suppose that corn may be
kept in any sort Of crib, as open as
Jack StraW's house-neither wind nor
water tight-so that It is housed under 8
tolerable roof. So it can-but never long
in a marketable condition. While corn
cribs ought always to afford free ventil-
alton, they should be 50 constructed as
to shut out all storms, either rain or
snow. Better grow less corn and keep
it sound than prizs crops and sen it

The London Field states that poultry,
properly fed, will acquire all the fairness
needful for marketing purposes in two
weeks, or three st most. Their diet
should be Indian, ost or barley meal,
sealded in milk or water-the former is
the best, IS it viii expedite the fsttening
process. They should be fed early in the
morning, 81 noon, and also In the even
ing just before going to roost. A plenti-
fal supply of pure, fresh water, plenty Of
gravel, sliced cabbage or turnip tops. If
the fowls are required to be fat, some
trimmings Of fresh mutton suet may be
chopped up and scalded with their other
feed, or they may be boiled in milk alone
and poured over the meal. Tsis renders
the flesh firmer than it otherwise would
be. When lit to kill, feeding should be
stopped for twelve hours or more, that
the intestines may become comparative
ly empty.

breeding purposes should be made from

This is very good time to select cattle
for stall feeding, and thsre are certain
points that should claim the feeders at
tentioa ia making his selection. The
animal should not ba less than three
years old-be in good Health as indicated
by the skin and hAir-squsre built, with
full quarters, and gentle disposition,
These are essentials to taking on fat
rapidly.


Feeding should commence moderately
while at grass, and be increased gradual
ly, but never cloy the appetite. It ia a
nice point in feeding an animal to get il
to eat the largest amount of food-Rlways
an appetite and never hungry. Small
feeds and often. If any food is left in the
trough remove it Immediately and wash
out the trough that no sour or unpleas-
ant smell remains.


Remove the droppings morning and
evening and sprinkle p handful or two
OF plaster on the stall floor each time to
keep the atmosphere e-give plenty
ventiIation. Use the currycomb and
brush freely at least once day. Give
plenty of clean water.


BY attending to these hints you will
fatten with less grain and in the shortest
period of time.
