Fowls for the Farmer.
Most farmers are not fanciers and
do 110t breed fowls to sell for breed ,
ers to others. Only now and then do
we find a farmer that cares to handle
a fancy breed because of the plum.
ago , or of the ornament they may be
to his lawn , Most farmers want tbe
most useful fowl that can be found ,
The farmer In breeding should ItCeJ )

up with some high-priced breed oj
chiefly fancy ) ) olnts. U a farmel

Dairying In MexIco ,
Mr. Lcsplnasse , the United States
cOI1l:1'll : ' at Tuxpan , Mexico , In a revert
to the government , says : The old
methods of mlllclng , churning , and
general manipulation of mllle products
are still In exlstenco here , thereby
rendering It Impossible to produce
good butter , Cows are allowed to
roam over the grazing lnnds and are
rardly she1tered or given the lengt
'cure. The mlllclng process Is per.
formed In the most unslcllled manner
conceivable , 'rhe cow Is tied by the
head , and the operator proceedB to
mlllt the nnlmal In his rough and un'
systematic manner untll ho finally
forces a Quart or two of Inferior milk
from the cow's udder. The mll1e Is
placed In untidy wooden vessels nnd
transferred to some shed or outhouse ,
where It Is allowed to remain unpro'
tected over night. The following
morning the cream Is sltlmmed and
either benten with a forlted stlele or
violently agltatod In a boUle until the
butter granules are formed. It Is
then Indifferently washed and altered
as butter. It qulcltly turns rancid. It
sells nt from 30 to 40 cents per pound
United States monl3Y , and Is good
neither to 1001e at nor to taste. The
sour milk Is compressed In a coarse
cloth , sa1t d and allowed to dry for
several days , It Is then an Insipid ,
spongy mass , which sells for from
6 to 8 cent.s ( U. S. ) n chccse. Each
of these cheeses Is round. , about an
Inch thlcIt and about 8 Incbes In dlam.
eter. They find n quick sale In this
marltat. Such a thing as the most
slmplo , modern dairy appliance Is unknown -
known or at least not used.
New eMat Preservative.
A new meat curing process Is re.
ported from Germany , where Profes.
ser Emmerich clnlms to be able to
preserve meat In a tresh condition by
Injecting Into the veins at the dead
animal acetic acid , The blood Is 11rst
permitted to run out and then the
acid Is put In. It permeates the 11esh ,
so the professor claims , and that pre.
vents all decay and maltes the use ot
refrlgoratlon unnecessary. It Is ob.
vlous that If this process proves to be
all that Is claimed for ft , It will revo.
lutlonlze the meat curing Industry , os
acetic acid Is not an expenslvo pre.
servatlve. The reports say that meat
so cured has been shipped kom Germany -
many to South AfrIcan ports and was
found on arriving at Its destination to
be at good quality and perfectly pre ,
served. Our readers must remember
however that great things are claimed
'
tor all new processes.
Feeding the Bull.
The feeding at the bull Is n. very
Important matter , more so than the
foedlng of the cow , for the reason that
the bull Is general1y ltopt up all the
time. Under such an abnormal con.
dltlon he becomes too fat It he Is
fed a too largo ration at corn. It Is
better 'to teed him on a mixed grain
ration , Including oats , and to give
him a rough feed rich In nitrogen
rather than rich In carbon. Bran ,
which Is comparatively low In car.
bon and high In nitrogen , should be
a part of the dally ration. For the
bull at least roots should bo fed in
considerable Quantities , unless ho has
an abundance at exerclso , whleb most
of our bulls do not get. If , under a
properly balanced ration the bull be.
comes too fat It Is Indicative of a
lacle of vigor , and sucb a bull should
be disposed of and one substituted ,
that has tile vigor desired.
Reject Decayed Food.
The farmer Is sometimes tempted
to feed decayed or musty food to his
poultry. It. should never be done.
Just what effect It might have on tbe
eggs produced by the fowls we do not
Imow , but It may have a very serIous
effect on the digestive apparatus , We
have seen It urged not to feed such
foods because they would glvo to the
eggs the same taints they had them'
selves , but this may be doubted. Ono
writer tries to prove his case by as.
I serllng that onions fed to fowls produced -
, duced the smell at onions In the eggs.
I 'l'hls mu ) ' well be true , as the onion
I contains a very penetrating all that
will pass through the systeUls ot most
I animals. It. will uplear In the egg of
, the hen Qr the ml11e ot the cow. Dut
I that does not apply to the geneml
run at foods. 'fhoy should bo reo
jected , but rejected for the reason
that the ) endanger the bea1th of the
birds.
Green Manuring Crops ,
There nre I lany salls that are not
benefited by green manuring crops ,
. Such soils ure those already rich In
nitrogen and In humus. An Investlga'
tlon by the University at Illinois bas
shown that on many of the soils In
lIUnols un ndllllion at humus and at
nitrogen would be n. positive detrl.
ment. This leads to the remarle that
we must have n reason for every farm
operation. The green manure crop
Is net1ded on the soil that Is doficlent
In humus und nitrogen , but Is labor
lost on many other SGlls. It Is obvious
that we cannot lay down rules that
. can be followed bUndly on all farms.
} The green manuring crop Is valuable
/ where It Is needed , but worthless or
I worse , where It Is not needed. The
Intelligence of every farmer must determine -
termine the necesslt ) ' for each opera.

Some Effective HaIr Accessories.
Every woman has ribbon ornaments
for the hair , more or less elaborate ,
according to the occasion on which
they are to be worn. Dainty rC ! ettes
of long loops are made of a number
of loops of gauze ribbon , In soft col.
ors. The Idea In woarlng so many of
those ornaments Is to get a note at
becoming color to the tace to offset
the effect of the white gowns which
are worn morning , noon , and night
now.
now.The flush of a pink rosette , the
glow of a red one , the bright gleam
of a yellow ornament , or the warm
tone of some other color lends"a
brightness to the wearer of a white
frock. The woman of taste seJocts
the color that will best bring out the
beauties of her complexion , the luster
and tint of her eyes , and the warm or
bright lights In her hair.
