That Bkimmilk la i useful feed for all kinds of farm animals is an estab­ lished fact. It pays better, however, to feed it to the young animals than to old ones, though the latter cse it to fairly good advantage. The young ones have stomachs BO well adapted to using skim milk that they can get more out of it with less expenditure of digestive energy than any others. A good many experiments have been made with it from time to time, by the way of using it as a food for mature farm animals. Here and there are men that have fed it to their tAicIi vows, and in the absence of other animal^ to consume it this is a good use to make of it. The value In such a ca$£ depends on the market price thai can be obtained for it In the Cj*se of using it for cow feed it will be found necessary to keep it sweet till so used. Colts and even mature horses have been fed on skimmflk. One malt claims that his horses came to like milk and that less grain was con­ sumed after the milk began to be fed. We can easily believe this. Tlje milk contains a good amount of protein and thla of course goes to build up the muscles and maka protein from grain less nccessary. f Oh all of cur farms/the use of skim­ milk for chl( ken feeding is now recog­ nized, and little urging Is necessary to Induce the careful poultry raiser to feed the fowls all the milk they will consuna. When they cannot use enough oi it on account of its watery nature, It in very easy to make cottage cheese for them put of the milk. Deliver Cream Often. Reports from the centralized cream- gathering plants indicate mat there is a good deal of trouble about the se­ curing of cream in good condition. The farmers in many places now have hand separators, and in others follow the old practice of setting cue milk to get the cream. They are too busy in the summer time to drive to the railroad depot oftener than they have to, and this <nean$. that in some cases the cream is a week old before it is forwarded. The butter makers de­ clare that it is next to Impossible to make good butter out of this cre^m, or when it is mixed with the other milk, as it usually is. The problem is a hard one and it cannot be solved by any short method. It is, 01 course, advisable to have the farmers deliver their cre^m as often as possible, but a farmer wilt hardly make a trip to town if that trip is going to cost him more for loss in his harvests than the profits of the cream will amount to. It is evident that we must depend on a little improvement here and a little improvement there. With the proper facilities and with sterilization of cream on the farm it should be brought into a condition where it can be kept for a few days without Injury to it. If Mr. Gurler can send milk from Illinois to France, and have it arrive there sweet after 17 days, cer­ tainly our farmers can keep their cream in such good condition that it will be fit to make hutter from a few days after it is taken from the milk. We are not advocating few deliveries of cream, but know that there are many of our farmers so situated that they will not attempt to deliver cream every day, either in summer or win­ ter. Edam Cheese. -Elftm cheese is made in Holland anil takes its uaiue from the town of Edam. Its manufacture may have started at that place and so given it the name, but for the most part it is made in dairies and not in factories. There are lew of the latter in Hol­ land. The cows are milked ifci the fields, and the milk hauled to the houses. The cheese is made in large wooden tubs, and is placed in cup- shaped molds with other cup-shaped molds on top. This gives the cheese the shape of a cannon ball. In the process of curing, salt is rubbed on it from day to day as the cheese is turned. Edam is the great market where, large quantities ot this cheese Is sold, U is piled on the pavement in uie form of pyramids, wye re "the purchasers n^ake- their bargains with the sellers. A New Milk Test. It is reported that a German scien­ tist has invented a new milk test, by means of salts in solution, which have the power to uissolve the casein of milk. The compound of salts is mere­ ly mixed with the milk in a tube and the latter is placed in water, which is nearly at the boiling point. The tube used is marked with percent­ ages, and the butter-fat fills the tube in the same proportion as the fat per­ centage in the milk. If this simple system proves to be an accurate one, the dairy world will be greatly bene­ fitted. The test itself will however have to stand the test of furtaer In­ vestigation and experience. Fattening Cattle in Montana. There is a growing demand for fat cattle to supply our local markets, which is worthy of the attention of the Montana stockman and farmer. Hitherto the state has produced large numbers of fat cattle from its ranges, but these- have all reached a finished condition at one season of the year, and, consequently, have had to be shipped at that time in order to pre­ vent loss from scanty food supplies and severe weather. Conditions, how­ ever, are rapidly changing with the settlement of the rich valleys which are being brought under irrigation. In many places the large stock owner is now able to supply food for his breed­ ing herds or flocks during the winter season. In other sections, devoted more largely to strictly agricultural work, the farmer can produce enor­ mous quantities of forage which can not be disposed of to better advantage than in the fattening of live stock dur­ ing the winter season. It is possible for our farmers not only to supply the local demand for beef and mutton throughout the year, but to prepare large numbers for shipping as well -- Montana Station. Poultry Meat Profitable. Poultry meat is always healthful and always profitable to produce. It takes at least two years to get tne steer to the point where the meat may be. marketed, but the meat of the fowl is ready for market five months or earlier after birth of the bird. The money invested in the operation is quickly turned. The present inclina­ tion of the market for meat is up­ wards, and this is as true of poultry meat as of any other. The advan­ tage in the production of poultry meat Is^that it is always marketable and be sold in small quantities. It can be retailed out little by little, that is, bird by bird, while a thou­ sand pounds of beef must be quickly, marketed or it will spoil. Life la tb» great preserver, a&d a thousand pounds of live chicken has an im­ mense advantage over % thousand pounds of beef when demand is slow and uncertain. Back-Handed Comrliment from One of Her Sex on a Ferryboat. *'In my thirty odd years of exist­ ence," said the woman whd can en- « ocvy.j ai. ucV own expense, "I have learned to accept my own plain­ ness of face very philosophically, and sometimes I have felt that my ample reward is the pride I take in the noticeable good looks'of my small daughter. But it took a stranger to bring the truth home to me with real force. "The. other day I was oh one of the ferries with my baby girl and was en­ joying the favorable attention she evidently was receiving from the other passengers. One woman, after -watching the child and myself intent­ ly for several minutes, suddenly lean­ ed toward me and said in the most positive tone: "'That ish't your little girl.' ' 'She certainly is,' I replied rather spiritedly. ^ 'Well, gasped the woman, settling hack in her seat, 'she's a beautiful looking child." "And, of course, I enjoyed taking the backhanded Compliment home to my husband."--New York/ San. The 31 ate Turkey. ; . T^ils Is a variety that is not ex­ tensively bred„ It is supposed to be the result of a cross between the white and the black. The foundation Blate Turkey lien. color is ashy or slaty blue throughout, spotted with black. The less of this spotting the purer the bird is sup­ posed to be. The old toms reach a weight of 27 pounds in many cases and the hens usually attain a weight of 12 pounds. The real value of this bird for market has not been de­ termined, and it may possess in U qualities that are not now apparent. Labor-Saving Devices. The American brain has made, revo­ lutions in the domain of labor and has placed this nation at the apex of the world in the matter of material wealth. In the poultry -department of the farm, however, we have tcrgotten or neglected to devise the shortest methods of doing things. Often a poultry house is so disadvantageously placed, or so badly arranged, that an enormous amount of labor is en tailed in the care of the poultry. We can not afford to do this in America Labor saving devices should be as numerous in the poultry establish ment as elsewhere. One of the labor saving devices should be in the way of watering the fowls. The system to be used should depend on the method of supplying water in the house. If there is a wind­ mill, and water is being pumped into the house through pipes, an additional pipe may be laid to the poultry house if the flock is of considerable size. The pipe may be laid in the ground deep enough to protect it from the frost of winter, and arrangements would have to be made for emptying the pipe in the coldest part of the winter. But even then the water could be carried through It for eight months of the year, and during that time it would require no labor what­ ever to supply water to the fowls. The immediate watering of the fowls should be in vessels that will hold enough for several days whether the water be supplied through a pipe or in any otber way. It is easy enough to arrange for this by inverting a jug or big bottle in a pan of water so that the water will cover the orifice out of which the water flows. Self-feeders may be easily construct­ ed for corn, oats and wheat. The oats may be allowed to run down all the time, for the fowls will never eat too many oats if they have them before .them all the time. The feeders for \orn and wheat may be so arranged that a certain amount of the grain will be dropped out of tnem by merely touching a lever or pulling a string. There is no device that can be used to lessen the labor of scalding soft feed for poultry, btft if tbe pail that is to hold the soft food is kept in the house a teakettle full of water may be poured into it several hours before it is to be used, and the pail covered. The heat In the pail will cook the mix­ ture sufficiently for the use of the fowls. The ground oyster shell and the grit may also be placed in self-feed' ers, and at one time a sufficient quad1 tity supplied to last for months. Whitewashing^ With a Sprayer. There are nozzles on the market that make it possible to apply the whitewash to the country house with­ out the use of a brush. The construc­ tion of buildings at the Columbian Ex­ position was an object lesson to the general public as to how whitewash­ ing can be done on the wholesale. There the buildings were white* washed very rapidly by means of streams of whitewash thrown on the buildings but in spray sufficiently fine to penetrate all the cracks and cran­ nies and yet not to be wasteful. Our poultry houses need to be frequently whitewashed and it would doubtless pay to have a sprayer for this purpose if for no other, if such a one can be obtained for a few dollars. Men that have fru!?" orchards large enough to warrant them in having spraying ap­ paratus will flhd it an easy matter to give the inside of the poultry house a treatment frequently. In the greasing of any Mntf" of fowls for body lice it Is oni| neces­ sary to use lard. \The mixing of kerosene with it is not neceaiary and ia hard on the skin of fowl Poultry raising Is popular for the reason that it may be entered on by people of small capital or )y people . - M «jk AanHsl Man and Wlf Buxton, N.

A bulletin of the United States De­ partment of Agriculture says: It is believed that the average sugaf content of beets in this country can be increased 2 to 3 per cent when we shall have developed a higher strain of beets through home-grown seed. On account of the higher vitality of the germ, these experiments indicate that we shall have a race, of beets., more vigorous from the start. \ In the production of beets for a facv tory, the vitality of the seed as shown by germination is an important factor. It is the first evidence of the probabie yield of the crop that the grower looks for. Everything depends upon the stand. It is desired that a beet shall fill every place in the row provided for it. It is evident that if every third beet is missing there will be only two-thirds of a stand of plants ma­ tured at the harvest. If the rows tre 18 inches apart and the beets stand 8 inches apart in the row, there will be 312 beets to the row, and 138 2-3 rows to the acre. If every beet^is in ^ts place there will be 43,264 beets to The acre. If these beets average one* pound, there will be 43,264 pounds to the acre, equal to 21.63 tons. If the beets average two pounds, which & more nearly the usual size, we will have 43.26 tons per acre. This shows the possible tonnage per acre when all conditions are favorable and we have a perfect stand. Vitality of seed is a strong factor in reaching this ideal. The plants should start out; strong, vigorous and healthful. They must send down their taproots vigorously, and send out .their laterals quickly; this enables them to entrench them­ selves early in the soil. Plants are like animals. Vigor in youth prom­ ises much for healthful maturity. Strong vitality or germinating power of j£he seed indicates this early vigor, which will enable the plants to with­ stand diseases, pests and drought. The number of sprouting germs in a given number of beet balls and the vigor and rapidity of germination are the tests of this vitality. Home-grown seed has shown a higher germinating power in a shorter time than thost selected from ordinary imported seed. From these facts it would appear that we are entitled to anticipate a higher yield of beets from the use of home­ grown highly developed beet seed. The extraction of refined sugar in this country averages 11 per cent, or 220 pounds of refined sugar to a ton of beets. The factory pays the farmer for this sugar $2.27* per hun­ dredweight while it is, still In the beet. If the factory could extract 13 per cent of sugar on account of our perfecting a strain of beets with higher sugar content and purity through home-grown seed, a ton of beets would yield 40 pounds more su­ gar, worth at the factory $1.80. This alone would give the factory 36 per cent profit upon the investment of $o per ton for beets. This seems quite possible. Home-grown seed to-day of­ fers the most encouraging prospect of insuring the future growth and pros perity of the beet sugar industry Cherokee fn British Army. ' Lieut. Richard Neale, Jr., of th«i jBritish army was married at Musko* sree a few days ago to an Indian girl of Canadian district? in the Cherokee nation."havinc come all the wav from South Africa to claim the sweetheart oi his boyhood days. About the time the war broke out in South Africa Neale shipped from New Orleans and! was soon at the front. He immediate­ ly enlisted as a British trooper. He was in many battles and has many scars. Neale was wounded at Bloem- fontein, and there, fry an act of braver/, won the Victoria cross, which he wears. His captain fell, badly wounded. The young trooper reached the side of his captain, pulled bim on his horse, and carried him ofE the field in safety. The next day the command­ ing officer called for the trooper who did this act of bravery. A comrade "of Neale told him that it was the "Cherokee Kid," that being the name he went by in his troop. For this act Neale was promoted to a lieutenancy. P Phosphorus in Steamed Bona Meal In a recent talk with Professor Hopkins of the University of Illinois, a representative bf the Farmers' Re view learned that the cheapest form in which to purchase phosphorus is in the form of steamed bone meal; that is, for early results. It may be the cheapest in any competition, but we have yet much to learn nbout the phosphate in unacidulated phosphate lock. That Professor Hopkins^ is right we have every reason to believe, His opinion is coincided in by no less an authority tban Professor Charles E. Thoqi£p of the Ohio Experiment Station. That gentleman does not hesitate to declare that steamed bone meal furnishes the cheapest and most available form of phosphorus that can be obtained. He further says that ex­ cept for experimental purposes the Ohio station has abandoned the use of the acidulated goods. By actual ex­ periment it was found that the clover- producing fields were injured by the constant application of the acidulated fertilizers. The sulphuric acid brought into the soil manifested itself in bar­ ren spots in the clover field, and these spots grew from year tqv^ar as more fertilizer was applied. Sheared bone meal has the advantage over raw bone meal in that the nitrogen has been mostly tjnten out of the steamed article and therefore does not have to be paid for. This makes the steamed bone meal a cheaper source of phos­ phorus than the raw bone meal. Of course if a man wants also to buy ni­ trogen be can purchase the raw bone meal.--Farmers' Review- The World's Wheat Crop. .That the world's wheat crop this 'year is to be a full average now seems certain. The high prices paid for wheat in the markets of the United States are not caused by a shortage in the world supply, and as long as we export wheat, or have a surplus to export, the crop of the world is what will finally determine the price at which we must.sell both the exporta­ ble surplus and the main body used for home consumption. The crop is about the same as that of 1^02 and 1903 for all practical purposes. One foreign estimate is that the crtffc, this year will be 3,004,000,000 busbels. The crop of last year was estimated at from 3,087,000,000 bushels to 3,160,000,* 000, a margin so wide as to throw much doubt on the correctness of the higher figure. Taking the world as a whole the yield tends to uniformity; for when there is a great loss in one country there is generally a great gain in some other country to make it good. The crop of 1902 was estimated at from 3,029,600,000 to 3,155,200,000 bushels. Even a difference of a hun­ dred million bushels cuts little figure in the wheat crop of the world, being only between three and four per cent It will be seen that we cannot hope for a world price very much in ex­ cess of the world price of recent years. The prices for wheat in ex­ porting nations tend to gravitate to­ ward the world price, less cost of tnuuporta&pu^ , Home at the World's Fair. "IS. C.
