The best way to find out wheth .er tho crunnory pays the farmer, ia'to ask tho farmer who patron izes tho creamery. The oreamer iOjM invito investigation They do not ask anybody to tako their word for it. Tho farmers in western Nebras ka have had haul times ft r man" years, hb a result of repeated crop failures; but now they are learn ing a trick or two. They liavo be gun to appreciate the value of the great Amoriean cow, and thoir future is assured It migh.t bo a good idea, whon the Hies are at thoir worst, to let tho cows run in the pasture at night, and keep them in somo eool and shady place during the day. Tho popular plan is just '1.-0 re verse of this. The cows arc kept in tho burning field all day, and shut up in a barren lot at night. Three Rood cows, well kept and properly handled, will bring to a farmer every month SI 3. 00 if the milk is taken to 'a creamery station and the butter fat sold at present prices. Tho milk conies back to feed tho calves and pigs and tho cows go on month after month making this record of cash income. What pays on a farm bettor than tliatV if your cow isn't paying her way got rid of her. If sho breaks through fences, get rid of her, or sho will teach other cows tho trick. If Everything she entu goes to th6 manufacture of tallow, instead of iniHc, get rid of hor. Get rid of bvery cow that is not profitable, or there will bo no profit in dairy ing for you. A fow losing cows will knock tho profits from many good ones. Tho old fashioned milking stool iaatill in vogue in somu sections. It has ono leg, attached to a small p;e.cp of plank, for. tho milker, to sit on. It-is made in that shape bedaujo JfjB so convenient to pick up and hit the cow on the head, ljt itlso'fcnaules tho milker to cap size and spill the milk, with the least trouble in tho world. Wo seoiio good reason why tho milk er ahonldn.t be comfortable, and suggest tliat ilii old bucket, with a p;ece of sacking tacked over tho opou end, to sit on, makes a very haitdy and comfortable seat. "Vo learn that one firm in this neighborhood contemplates pro curing seventy-five cows from whjch to furnisli cream to tho coming separating station at this plapc,. This is the right spirit. Moro of it will assuro the McCoolc station to be a big success from tho. start, although it usually takes some time to make a success of such enterprises. McCoolc Tribune. BURLINGTON ROUTE.
