' Recent writers on the economics of the dairy have dwelt with almost unan- imous voice on the importance of winter - butter-making. So far as Great Britain ‘ is concerned, first-grade butter is almost l as much a season luxury as strawberries ‘ or green peas. The bulk of winter-made batter has a tallowy and uninviting as- , taineer, and on the third day of our ex- putt. in some cases accompanied by un- mistakable suggestions in its flavor ofa up a satisfaced. dejected looking man, part of the cow. l, whom he called Crumply. bulbius diet on the There are indiCations in the record of Canadian experiments, however, that l few minutes before he left us \l'eskins winter may he as favorable as summer I asked me for the advance of 25 cents lor the manufacture of butter if the con- ditions as to maternity and f0od are mt'i. in a sullicienlly accomodating spirit. Winter butter making in the Dominion, which in Ontario alone is now conduct- ed in some E40 creameries and factories, llal its beginning so recently as 1891- 92 in the establishment by Professor 1i..bertsou of two experimental winter creameries. The Commissioner's work on the Government Experimental Farm has been invaluable. He devoted forty with the object of showing that by a proper selection of fodders the number of animals kept upon agiven area could be doubled. The fertility of the forty- acre plot. was maintained by the manure from the animals themselvesâ€"a princi- ple whose value is recognized in this country, as in England, by the yarding of sheep upon turnips when practicable. He was able to eventually to keep thirty cattle on the produce of the forty acres, and he is convinced that the number is Capable of still further increase, even to the extent of a cow per acre. 0-. Why Leave the Farm ? A great many people are wanting to has ceased to be very renrunerative. But if they flee to town or to the city, hoping to find more remunerative em- ploymcnt, they are certain to be disap- pointed. The city is full of idle book- keepers, and would-be clerks and help- ers of all descriptions. For every vac- ancy that occurs 20 men stand ready to fill it, and that at a salary that will not admit of much, if any, surplus after living expenses are paid. For the man even well qualified for pisitions in the city, the prospect at present is gloomy, as there are no vacancies. But for the man unqualified by way of education and special training there is at present no prospect whatever of fat jobs in the city. There is no reason why a boy raised on the farm should make a farm- er, if he has no taste for farm life. But before starting out into the world, he must qualify himself for the position to which he aspires. The towns and cities are dependant on the farms for fresh and vigorous manhood, and it would mean the ultimate downfall of the cities if people should cease to leave the farm. But, before leaving the farm, be sure you know what you want, and that by reason of special fitness there is a reason- able Certainty of attaining the desired rnd. Il'anyone leaves the farm under the impression that there are many ad- vantages in the city not. found on the farm. he will discover later that the ad- vantages of farm life have been under- estimated and that the advantages of :‘llfv' life have been greatly overestimat- cl. llm‘t be discouraged. We believe that agriculture is destined to see better daysâ€"Journal of .-lqrt'cul(nre. ..â€"â€"â€"â€"â€"- Science of Milking. It is. not everyone that can milk a 2 w as it should be done. Some can iniik two CHVS while. another is milking one. The operation should never be 'hurrievl, neither should it be done slov- enly; but the tuilk should be drawn steadily as it flows. Some cows have tender tents, and in milking too rapidly ‘ the operation is likely to be roughly done. or. if too much prolonged, the .eow gets irritated. .\ cow that is natu- rally" impatient antl frctful does not like to submit to rough handling. and, it continued. her disposition will soon be ruined hv such treatment. The con- s! \' er of being milked at r-‘gular times swon impresses itselfstrongly upon her, and she will trouble. .-\s the u ldcr becomes distend- . l with milk, it is a relief to her to h we it drawn out. When the udder is tilled to the utmost with milk it be- cctnes painful. and if not. relieved the cm‘ becomes restless. If this happens frequently or for any considerable time it will cause the cow to dry up prcma-v . .‘lilk the cow dry. the last of the milk being the richest and best. In most cases neglect to milk regularly and Ll":\n is One Cause of the cow's drying on early. of giving bloody milk, of gar- gct and othcrevils.

The long-haired contributor knocked timidly at the door of the editor’s room, says Up-to-Date, and chuckled to him- self when he heard a pleasant “ Come in l" Hardly had he entered the office when the editor jumped up from his seat and, grasping him warmly by the hands, escorted him to a chair and beg- ged to be shown a manuscript. The visitor produced a greasy roll, and the editor read it eagerly. “It is sublime,” he said, “simply sublime.” The contributor had expected to hear that it was slime, because it was a poem on spring mud, but he retained his pres- ence of mind sufficiently to ask, “ Will you accept it ?” “ Will we accept it ?” said the editor. "Well, I should say we would l" and he laid the manuscript on the desk, and putting his arm around the contributor's waist waltzed him around the desk three times to the tune of “City Life Has Changed Her.” At last they stopped, pulling for breath, and the editor. sitting dorm, reached for his check book and said, “ \Vill 350 do ?" “ Yes," said the caller, “that will do.” The editor wrote out a check, and just as he was about to sign it the cou- tributor woke up. We wen’t say it was a dream. It was a nightmare. W. -0 A Wreck in the Potato Field. An old salt, after sailing the sea for years, thought he would try a life ashore | for awhile. He looked around for ajob, and was engaged by a farme', saying, as he had plowed the deep for years, he thought he could plough the land. He went home with the farmer, and, after a good night's rest and breakfast, start- ed out to plow. The farmer hitched up a yoke of oxen, with a horse on to lead. Taking two turns around the field and then turning the team over to Jack, he said he would go to the house for family prayers. It was plain sailing for a short time. but the team didn't like Jack's way of navigating. The oxen turned the yoke and things became snarled up. Jack hove to and went to the house, asking for the deacon. He was told l the family were at prayers. but pushed in and hailed the deacon : “Say, dea~ I l l l l l l . . .j con. the starboard ex is on the port aide I l and the port ox is on the starboard side. , The old mare is athwart the bows, and I gthe whole thing is drifting to hadcs l stern first.
