The problem of the unemployed
working man is ono of the most Im-
portant questions of the day in sev-
eral European countries. Among
the measures introduced by the gov-
ernment at the present session of the
British Parliament was a bill for the
relief of the unemployed, but it did
not become a law. The Belginn min-
tster of labor has published a docu-
ment setting forth the (arts in his
country. and measures have been
adopted for the solution of the pro-
blems in Sweden, Hungary and Rus-
sia.
The most sigitificant of recent con-
tributions to a knowledge of the sub -
pail should bo held close to the ud-
der. As soon as the milking Is done
the milk should be tnken to the
dairy room and not allowed to
stand.
The pyratnidal strainer is the best.
In the pyramidal form, the centre of
the metal gauze is raised and the
straining surface is much increased.
Impurities striking against it, work
down until out of the current.
Cooling is 80 closely connected
with airing that the two terms aro
often confused. Machines aro con-
structed for doing both at the Ramo
time. Cool to within three or four
degrees of the temperature of water.
Every dairy fern' should have a
never fulling cold spring, a good
well or a supply of ice. The cool-
ing of milk should receive the same
attention in winter as in summer.
if you expect to raise good duiry
cows from your heifer cows, you
moat be kind to them from the day
they are horn. You cannot club a
cow into sulrmisaion.
DETAILS ON TIIfl FARM.
There Is perhaps no other business
where so little attention is paid to
details ns is the case in the business
of farming. Our farmers should
know what branch of their ,business
pays then best. They should keep
records as to cost of production in
every line of their work. They gen-
erally have too little system about
their operations and the result is
often foss of time or efforts spent.
LAMiIS IN TIIE CORNFIELD.
Lambs can ho profitably fed in the
cornfields in the late summer or ear-
ly fall, after the corn gets out of
teach. They will clean up the
weeds, and do no harm to the corn
other than take off the lower leaves
and eat the broken-down stalks. As
corn !natures they will get the ears
within reach—and he benefited. With
a rim of the cornt}eld, in which rapo
has been mowed. and tho opportunity
to get at a clover pasture, they will
grow and fatten at the same timo
and be only a benefit to tho corn-
field.
Old sheep may have too good an
nppetite for corn and break down
the stalks to get it, but lambs will
not know enough to do 'nisch 01
that. No matter how clean the corn
ellen laid by, there will grow enough
weeds to feed a few sheep.

most of the thirteen."
"Any of them die?"
"Not that. 1 know of. Never

"Who's talking shout victuals?
There wasn't any victuals."
