b ked eg a arg 1 nt
her of Blares or of carve, sheep, hugs
and poultry? We are confident that
the farmer has never been in a more
secure position than the present, as
regards the extension of his breeding
operations, but, to enable him to form
more easily id own conclusions, the
following facts are submitted:
Since the oetbrealt of the war, the
British Remount Commission has
iiureliasetl in t.'auada 15,000 Horses;
b,(100 have been bought by French
contractors and 25,000 by the Cana-
dian Department of llfihitia, The De-
partment of Militia is now engaged in
buying an additional tliounand head.
The I3ritish Remount Commission has
purchased over 700 since March and
1111 is buying daily in Montreal. French
contractors are anxioue to obtain sup•
plies and are arranging to buy all that
are available both in the east and in
the west, It is understood that, as a
result of the purchases already made,
army buyers are finding it increasing-
ly difficult, both in United States and
in Canada, to -readily secure the num-
ber of horsey which they require, par!
titularly of the type . suitable for
heavy cavalry or heavy artillery.
In addition to the purchaeee for
army account, commercial activity
from two distinct quarters has ex-
erted a very evident influence upon
the Canadian horse market during the
past three or four months. Since the
beginning of the yea;•, 6,000 horses
reached the Winnipeg Stock Yards
from Eastern Canada, and 5,917 were
shipped from the same yards vests
weed, mostly to Saskatchewan, Dur-
ing the months of January, February
and March, 1,805 horses were ex-
ported to the United States. A few
hundred more went forward to the
same market in April, The horses ex -
Ported were good farm chunks weigh-
ing 1,300 to 1,500 the. As high as $500
a pair was paid for animals possees-
iug extra quality and confirmation.
This new movement in the horse mar-
ket is having ite effect upon prices
all over Canada.
Buyers report that the iletter classes
of drafters and farm chunks are get•,
ting scarce and hard to buy. The same
holds true of good big roadsters and
saddlers. The noticeable scarcity of
good horses of these descriptions il-
lustrates the fact that demand has al-
ready overtaken supply and makes it
very evident that all the really good
sound mares in the country should be
bred this year. It cannot be too
strongly emphasized, however, that
they should be mated only with strict.
ly high class sires. The number of
horses rejected by army buyers clear-
ly .Indicates that there is no place for
the unsound horse or for the misfit.
Such animals have been, are now and
always will be a drug on the market.
Breed to the best if you would have

are just as bad as unsound stallions.

PREVENTING MOTTLED RUTTER,
Mottled butter, though it may be
of very good flavor, is strongly dis-
criminated against by the purchaser.
As this is a defect of workmanship,
it can be overcome by the application
of proper methods on the part of
the buttermaker.
Mottles are caused primarily by an
uneven distribution of salt in the
butter. This may be produced by in-
sufficient working of the butter or
by churning, washing, and working
it at a very low temperature, or by
washing or working it at a tempera-
ture lower than the churning temper-
ature.
When the quantity of butter made
in one churning is much less than
usual, it is necessary to work it a
greater number of revolutions of the
churn than usual in order to produce
the same results on the butter.
Extremely low temperatures should
be avoided, because they pro.
duce so firm a butter that it is only
with great difficulty that the salt
can be worked uniformly into it.
-High temperature of churning,
washing and working must also be

avoided to prevent an abnormal loss
of fat in the buttermilk and also the
malting of greasy, leaky butter,
Great variations in temperature
during the manufacturing process
should always be avoided. Under
normal conditions the temperature
of the wash water should be the same
as, or within two degrees of, that of
the buttermilk,
When the churn room is so cold
that the butter becomes chilled be-
fore working is completed, mottled
butter is frequently tlie result. To
prevent this it is preferable to in-
crease the amount of working rather
than to raise the temperature of the
wash water,
Mottled butter, then, 'may be pre-
vented by using methods that will
insure a uniform distribution of salt.
TO TELL WHEN IN CALF.
Someone was asking how, lay the
taste of milk, to tell where a cow was
In calf. Here is a way we have used
for some time, without failure.
Take a glass of clear, cold water and
from the end of a straw or Ranting
needle, drop a drop of fresh milk into
the water. If not in calf, the milk will
at once mingle with the water and
make it milky, but if in calf, the milk
Will go in a string in a spiral shape to
the bottom of the glass, and the far-
ther on a cow is in calf, the heavier
the string and the more noticeable it
is, but it can be detected even after
the first few months. For an inex-
perienced person it is well to take the
milk of a cow known to be not in calf
and compare the results.—H. L.

NMODERN WiRE ROPE.
Mathematical Precision Rules
Every Process in Its Making.
Although wire rope has been used as
a mechanical appliance for almost
5,000 years, it Is commonly regarded as
a modern invention. During the
inany years which have elapsed slime
the first records of its use Wire rope
has passed from a crude to a highly
developed product, and the. purposes
for which it is •employed have increase
ed a thousandfold. In no other branch
of the American steel industry is there
so great a demand for material of
proved integrity, for it might be safely
suggested that wire rope is born to
be abused. It is subjected to tremen-
dous tousle strains; it must withstand
constant bendings, abrasion, corrosion
and theeculiar
p internal stress pro-
duced
raduced by vibration.
Wire rope as it is made to -day is
the product of the metallurgist and the
mechanic. Every process, from the
smelting ot•the ores, the told drawing
of the wire and the heat treatments it
receives demon te the stranding or lay-
ing up of the cable, is conducted with
mathematical precision.
The chemist sees that only steel of
the proper analysis Is used; the oleo•
trio pyrometer insures uniformity of
heat; treatment in various testing ma-
chines •clearly develops the worth of
the product before it is allowed to leave
the mill. Wire rope is used in the
mine shafts more than a mile hi depth,
and may be found on aeroplanes whiclt
sail a mile or more above the ground.

SALT AS A LUXURY.
In Most European Lands itis Dear
and Used Sparingly,
Along many art of the Brittany
coast whore the laud is low you inay
see the sea salt industry being carried
on on a large scale. In the United
States salt is cheaply produced at
inland points by ovaporatiou from salt
water pumped from deep wells, but in
most of the countries of Europe the
bulk of the salt which le consumed is
made by the evaporation of eea
water.
Sea salt is not so pure as salt which
is produced from wells, as it contains
a percentage of state of inagnesiam,
potassium and lime, with traces c,f
iodine and other elements, in addition
to the sodium chloride, which is the
desired substance, But it answers the
purpose about as well.
The sea water is let into great shal-
low basins or ponds at high tide, the
flow being controlled by gates, The
sun, which shines very powerfully on
the south Breton coast, gradually
evaporates the water, and the -brine
becomes constantly stronger. More
water is let in from time to time, uatil
a certain point of saturation is reach-
ed, and then the water is allowed to
dry up, and the salt is left behind as a
thin crust or coating on the bottom of
the ponds.
The salt is then gathered by means
of rakes and scoops. In this form, of
course, it is very impure, for in taking
it up a large amount of dirt is taken
up with it. It is plied up, and in due
course the action of the rain and
weather serves to filter out most of
the dirt, and the salt i, left in fairly
pure condition.
As you go along through the salt
districts yeti will see hundreds of'these
white piles of salt, containing perhai-.s
a ton or so each. The crude salt lc
finally taken to mills, where it is put
through refining processes and made
ready for market.
Sale brings high prices in most Eu-
ropean countries. it is such a luxury
that the people have to be sparing of
it. You might wonder why this is
when Europe has such a huge coast
line and all that is necessary is to let
the sea water evaporate under Ilia
influence of Old Sol to produce all the
salt any one could want,.
•l3ut..lt.ere, ie,,it:lxere •the la* steps in.
The Government aseunles that the sea
is its property, and it- will not allow
ordinary citizens to Make salt from it
or in fact matte any other private use
of it without a license.
Poor fishermen in 'Turkey were put
in prison because they bolted sea water
and made their own salt, This illicit
malting of salt was against the law,
just as the making of spirituous liquor
without a proper license from the
Governinent is against the law in this
country.

AMUSING POLITENESS.
When a Couple of Natives Pass
the Time of Day in Japan.
I had always heard that there was
lots of politeness in Japan, but I had
hardly expected to find that it often
blocked traffic, When two Japanese
meet on the narrow streets you've got
to wait until the ceremony is over or
go .around. On meeting they do not
shake elands and have it over with, as
W3 do back home, but begin bowing
anti each asking the other the latest
news from his worshipful ancestors.
It `would be an open insult—smack in
the face—for one Japanese to sleet
another without asking him how his
ancestors fared. Their ancestors are
always an open subject for discussion.
A Jap is never too bury to engage in
conversation about his dear, departed
forbears, The weather can look out
for itself. Tho gripping topic is how
some of the ancestors are getting
hong who passed to their reward a
couple of hundred years ago.
Wlien two Japanese meet they stop
squarely in the middle of the street
and begin bowing. Their bow Is not
just a twitch of the head. Instead of
Mat, it begins at the waist, sweeping
over the entire upper part of the bod,',
even to the outlying hands, bending
the figure over until it looks like a
great inverted V teetering for a mo-
ment on one prong, There are traces
of the colonial in their bow, with a
pronounced military strain running
through tt,
When they are doubled over one of
.them: says to the other, "Oh, honored
sir, to what do I owe my great good
fortune that I have the pleasure of
meeting such an esteemed man this
day?"
The other man, with his head town,
conies quickly back with: "You do me
a great honor with Fuch words, and.
T only wish that I were, worthy of
them. May I crave your indulgence
while I ask how your stomach fiuds
itself this morning?"
The first concern, on one Japanese
on meeting another is to know 1i W the
other's stomach fares, and after this
momentous question is settled they
pass on to their ancestors, who while
the conversation is on the stomach
have to take a back scat.

significant creature, not unlike our
noctulo bat in general appearance
and Sizer but with a small "nose
leaf" and no web between the hind
legs. The really remarkable thing
about It is its perfect adaptation for
secret and painless bloodletting. Most
• bats have teeth very like tkuse of the
carnivore, with long canines and
small incisors, but in the true blood-
sucking vampire bat the incisors are
very large and broad and exceedingly
sharp edged, thus being able to in-
flict - a aiming surface cut which
causes no pain, but a great deal of
bleeding. Indeed, not only does the

The Norwegian Costume.
It is at church in Norway that the
national'•costume is best seen. In. the
north the women wear short dark
-gowns, with fringed handkerchiefs
tied becomingly over their curly fair
hair, black ones for the matrons and
white ones for maidens. In the south
the old Norwegian dress is often worn.
It consists of a short dark petticoat,
with a stripe of bright •colors, a full
white blouse and a rad 'bodice heavily
embroidered, while on Sundays a quan-
tity of silver pins and chains are add-
ed. The headdress varies according
to ;the occasion and the wearer's social
condition. The girls were jaunty red
caps, the married women a coif made
of many folds of starched white linen,
plaited over a wooden frame, and a
bride wears a high metal Crown curi-
ously chased and set with jewels.
It is just as well to parade your in-
telligence, especially if you Want to
eseape Jury duty.
