there is peed of some handy method of
cleaning the stable twice a day whop the
cows are in all the time, and somebody to
make use of the things mentioned.
4. While in the stale, cows Peed curry'
ing and brushing once a day. If more time
is spent in brushing the cows and less, if
necessary, in brushing horse, it will pay
better at preeent.
5, heed nothing but pure, sweet, clean,
wholesome food. Anything which gives a
taiut or ban flavor to milk shoeld not be
given to cows, If a taint or flavor in the
milk is caused by the food, it will be at its
worst when drawn front the cow; if Oalioed
by some fermentatiomit will grow worse
as the milk is kept. The remedy for the ;
latter is cleanliness. Use scalding water
in washing the utensils and strainers. The
following foods are prohibited in the deiren
Sour brewers' grains, distillery slops,
Swede turnips and tops, rape, sour mouldy
silage, musty meal, cleanings from the
horse stable, and hey or grass having 'bad
smelling weeds, ouch as leeks or ragweed.
Allow cows access to plenty cf pure water
and salt at all times.
6. Milking ueeds to be done by clean
persons. Rands should be washed before
commenoing to milk. Have a wash basin,
some soap, water and a towel in the stable
and use them. Olean aprons to put on
while milking will be useful. Milk each
cow regularly and milk out clean. It will
pay to "strip" the cow a minute longer than
usual, if you are being paid by test.
7. After straining and aerating, the milk
may be cooled for the creamery. For the
cheese factory it is not necessary, except
during very hot weather. The milk may
as well be ripening while the maker is
sleeping, as to have him sitting around wait-
ing for it to ripe during the day.
8. Set the milk can in a place where the
air is pure and in winter where it will, not
freeze. Milk should be protected from sun
and rain. These are good in their place,
but poor things to make cheese and butter
out of t,
are most easily driven off while the milk is
troll and warm, and for this reason aeration
should be dote at once after milking and
before the milk is cooled.
Importance The flavor of the cheese
and butter largely determines the price.
The flavor of these depends, with a compet-
ent maker, upon the flavor of the milk;
therefore the price dependt, to a great ex-
tent, upon the flavor of the milk. This
something which governs price depends
upon proper management of milk at the
farm. Pieper aeration will get rid of any
objectionable odors that may have come
from the cow or food. Where paying by
test is practised, aeration and stirring will
prevent the erearn from rising, and con-
sequentlyeehe milk will give a higher av-
erage test and one more uniform.
lievesto Aerate ; It may be done by clip-
pies, pouring or stirring, or by the use of
an aerator. An aerator properly used is a
help, but abused, itie a hindrance. Simply
running milk through ate aerator once after
milking without any further stirring is not
sufficient. It should be stirred two or three
times at intervals of 10 or 15 minutes after
being put through one of these aerators and,
againbefore going to bed. Not only to im-
prove flavor should this be done, but also
to prevent loss of cream in the vats especial-
ly in the fall, when milk frequently stands
some time before beinsset.
Some keep their milk over night in pails
hanging on nooks. These hooks are fasten-
ed to,a strong pole or scautline supported
by means of a couple of posts in ground.
The morning's milk needs aerating as
well as the evening's.
Aerators Should be Kept Clean t Look
out for grease and dirtinnooks and crevices.
Do not buy an aerator that is not easily.
cleaned. One good maker in Western On-
tario does not advise the use of aerators at
all, for the reason that patrons do not keep
them clean.
A good thing for purifying milk may be
made by taking an 'ordinary shallow milk
pan made of strong tin. On the outside
bottom of this, fasten a handle about 2i
feet long. Punch 8 or 10 small holes in the
bottom of the pan. In using, put the in-
verted pan squarely down into the milk and
allow thie pan of air to bubble through the
milk. When it ceases bubbling, draw out
and then insert again. Do this a dozen
times each evening and morning. The
evening milk should be treated about three
times in the foregoing manner, once immedi-
ately after milking, then in 15 minutes,
and again in about half an hour. Stir be -
fele retiring for the night.
t'
sTRAININO. r-- ss•
When to Commence: Straining should
begin before commencing to milk, by
brushing off all dirt, hairs,straw, etc., front
the udder, teats and body of the cow'. Let
it be the duty of some one person to go
over all the cows with a soft brush, or a
damp cloth, before the cows are milked.
How to Strain: An ordinary wire sieve
strainer does very well, tut we add to this
by doubling cheese cloth or thin cotton so
as to have four thicknesses. Lay the Cloth
across the bettom of the strainer and then
fasten it on by means of a tin ring which
slips over the cloth and bottom pert of the
strainer. For cplicktiess we use a strainer
that a pail of milk may be p4 into at once.
This sits in a wooden frame over the can.
Some use a woolen cloth to strain with.,
Cloth of some kind is necessary to catch
hairs and fine dirt, This cloth must be
kept clean. Scald it thoroughly each time
after using.
Why Strain? Cheese and butter are
articles of food to be eaten by Men and
women. A great many forget this. They
seem to think that it does not make any
difference what kind of milk is rant to the
factory, judging from what, is seen on the
streiners of factories. It all goes—welt,
goes somewhere, and they do not eat it.
--
OTHER POINTS TO BIS OBSERVED.
I. Keep none but cows that will give at
least 6,000 pounds of milk or 250 pounds of
butter a year. Weed 'out the poor ones
and replenish the herd by raising calves
from the best, Send milk to the factory
from none but healthy. animals. When a
cow shows symptoms of not doing wellrelit
ehould be separated from the rest of the
herd and her milk not used for food.
2. Colostrum or the fine milk after calving
should not be sone to make either elmese
or butter. Not until the fifth day does the
milk 'become'normal. Previous to this it
contains a high percentage of elbuinen,
which is of no use to either the cheera,or.
the batter -maker, but is a dedided hind.
ranee.
3. In the Spring and fall, while the ,cows
are in the 'stable, it should be kept clean.
To keep the stable clean the fol.
fewing are necessary : Two brooms-- a
stable and a houte broom ; tight floor ;
land plaster for the gutter ; lime for
sprinkling around thepeerages. whitewash
foe ceilings Ana walla Let the men bet -
row a little whitewash and a brush for an
hour from the vvomen this spring, go down
to the cow steble, sweep off the ceirWelos

a waste of lime afid, labor, don't do any

9. The Milk Stand should be 100 feet
from the barnyard and from where pegs
are fed. it should have a cover allowing
a free circulation of air, at the same time
preventing the milk from being heated, or
allowing rain water to get into it. Rain
water is said to spoil the flavor.

stock Exchange on the 22nd, when the
securities were quoted at 2 per cent. pre-
mium, The loan is to be principally applied
to redeeming existing Indian Treasury bills.
10. Milk wagons should be kept clean.
The boxes or racks for holding the cans
need scrubbing with hot water once a week
to remove spilled milk, etc. This is espec-
ially necessary where whey is hauled on the
same wagon as the milk. The odor of some
milk wagons is sufficient to taint the milk.
The horses need proper grooming that no
oders from them reach the milk. The
driver aud his clothing should be clean and
tidy. Cans of milk protected from sun and
due': while on the road will reach the fact-
ory in better condition than those without
cover.
11. If the can is ten years old and rusty,
leaks badly, has a dinged cover,, and spills
one half a gallon or more milk every day it
is sent to the factory, should you continue'
to use it? Will it not pay to buy a new
one?
1.9. Where possible, insist on the whey
being returned in the milk cans. (Sour
whey, alone, is an excellent article to keep
pigs in good squealing condition). Let it
Stand in the can until just before commenc-
ing to milk, then empty, rinse very slightly
with warm—not hot—water. Put the
evening's milk at once into this can without
straining and aerating. If it gets to the
factory before it sours, step into the factory
about noon and here the cheese -maker give
an exhortation on gassy curds and whey
(" beaky," some call it) flavors. Observe
the look on his face which says, "If I get
through by 8 or 9 o'clock to -night, I'll do
pretty well." Come round again in about
a month and see the buyer look at the
cheese made from the vat into which but
one can of such milk was emptied, and
notice him set this cheese, aside for further
inspection or a lower price. Re may refuse
it altogether for export.veill do for the
home market and will have a great tendency
to develop hoine consumption.
If the patron who sends milk like the
foregoing suffered alone, it would not be so
bad ;but if it is taken in by the maker out
of pity, every patron of the factory has to
bear the consequences. This iebearing one
another's (useless) burdens.
13. To wash milk pails, milk cans,
strainers, etc., they should be first rinsed
in lukewarm water, next washed with hot
water, and then be scalded, after which,
put them in a nice place to air and dry. Do
not wipe dairy tinwate with a dishcloth.
Make a bonfire of all the old dishcloths that
are used for wiping dairy utensils and the
flavor of the milk will go up 10 per cent.
14. Milk should be sent to the fa,ctory
of the same quality as given by the cows.
Nothing 'should be added to the milk and
nothing taken from it (except bad oders).
Removal of cream, keeping back "stripp-
ings" or skim milk, or 'first milk," should
be _prohibited. It, is as great a crime to
keep home skim -milk, or the "first milk"
from a amen factory as it is to keep home
cream or "strippings." Adulterated milk
is milk to which anything has been added,
or front which anything has been taken.
Persons offering for sale such milk should
be prosecuted.
15. The patrons having done everything
to supply the makers with good, pure milk,
it is the duty of the factotyman to make
first-class goods. Patrons ! step into your
factory occasionally and see thateverything
is neat and clean in a.nd around it, and
that there is good cheese or butter on the
shelves or in the storeroom. If it is not
so, ask why, and if the defect is not remed-
ied, insist On a change of maker next year.

The prospect of a good fruit crop in the
Bay of Quinte District is favorable, and as
fruit canning and apple evaporating
is an important industry in that local-
ity, the merchants are naturally anxious
each year as to the yield. The general
grain crop is also looking well, and a feel-
ing of confidence seems to prevail in trade
and financial cireles.

late British Connhissioner for the Sikkiin-
Tibet Convention ; Take a handful of brick
tea rub it between the hands until it is

with a little water and alum or Wood ashes;
keep on boiling the decoction (adding a little
water from time to time to counterbalance
ihe loss of evaporation) until the infilaion
is black as ink; then pout into a "choonga"
or long ehure,filling up with boiling water,
and two or three chittacke of butter ani
sale to taste, and turn with a wooden whisk
until the mixture beeomes like b rich,brown

Chiken Cry for Pitcher's Castarisi
Reports of the suspension or threatened
suspension of work in various parts of
Canada by melon of the coal strike are
now appearing from day to day, and the
prospects are anything but pleasant. Can-
ada is becoming each year more dependent
upon the coal fields of the United States
for her supply. In 1593 the entire quan-
tity exported by the American operators
was 1,773,536 tons, valued at $5,149,534,
of which 994,501 tons, valued at $2,500,-
614, were shipped to this country, and the
entire quantity exported in the first nine
months of the current- fiscal year was
1,935,617 tons or more than was exported
in the preceding twelve months, the in-
crease being due chiefly to additional sales
in Canada.
Reports from the emeth-western end of
the Province of Ontario are most encourag-
ing, so far as crop prospects go. Everything
looks lts best—and we have heard old
travellers remark that they never saw the
country look better. If the outcome of
the perfect appearance is realized the crop
in grass, grain and fruit; will be most
abundant. The failures in this section, too,
have eased off a little within the past month.
and though trade is quiet and practically
no dry goods or othee sorting up has been
done, this may be considered a favorable
sign. The country merchants are getting too
wise now to be easily loaded up with more
goods than they can carry, and what they
don't bay they will not have to pay for in
the fall. Wholesalers will readily realize
the lesson and import a little less.
The Council of the Toren to Board ofTrades
recently passed the following resolution :
"That this Council having considered bill
No. 92, entitled 'an Act respecting detective
corporations and rnercentile agencies' beg
to submit that the clause relating to mer-
cantile agencies is unnecessary and uncall-
ed for, there being no demand on the part
of the business public for legislatio,n in this
direction, and no apparent abuses that
would be rem died by this Act. The reput-
able agencies having become mph an import-
ant factory in the commerial world, any
unnecessary interference with them will re.
act injuriously on trade and cofinnerce, and
this board cannot see any good results likely
to flow from the passage of this bilk They
are stmegly of the opinion that the propos-
ed Act would be highly detrimental to
commercial interests, and seriously affect
business."
On the situation in the United States,
Dun's Review says: The obstacles to im-
provement do not len. The strikes of
coal miners and coke workers have not
ceased, but have caused the stoppage of
numerous works this week and embarrass-
ment to some railroads. For the first time
in many months the shipments of beets and
shoes from the east exceed those of,the cor-
responding week last year, and while new
orders are not promising and elle majority of
factories are doing about half as much as
usual, there is a sensible demand for wo-
men's goods, especially front the south,
though the west is backward. The long'
strike of miners results in better prices for
for bessemer iron, steel etc., and to iron
making concerns of the east partly compen-
sates for the overwhelming advantage which
the Pittsburg and Ohio region had secured
in the fierce competition for some months.
An abstract of the reports filed with

lag a capital of a million dollars or more,
shows that during the last ten years they
have, on the whole, sustained a loss of $10,
213,494. Only seventeen out of sixty
showed a profit. If the figures are correct,
it is evident that something is wrong some-
where. Either the companies do not, chn-
duct their business with proper economy;
or they do not get high enough ratee for
precarious risks. New dangers are said to
have arisen with the In treduction of electric
wires, and it is claimed that there has not
been a correeponding inorease of rates to
meet the increased risks. Sunday's dis-
astrous fire in Brooklyn seems -to have
originated from this source. But im long
as buildings are constructed wholly or in
part of wood, just so long will there be
danger of their catching fire from any num•
ber of causes and. burning down. One of
the discoveries of the future should be a
preparation, something on the order of
paint, which, when applied to wood will
render it fire proof, at least fox a time.

The London Omnibus.
Certain parts of London are centres from
which busdtrafdo and trans. -traffic radiates
and the "Relefant an' Cawsle" in South
London is, perhaps, the principal of these;
six roads, each with its service of bus or
tram, meeting there, says the English Illus-
trated Magazine. The "Elephant" itself
is an ordinary enough public -house, pleas-
antly' situated in a square well strewn with
cabbage -stumps, and surrounded with fish -
stalls ; and, not very far off, is the il'ONV

likely enough inspired the
"i ab ille, heres ago

that we have, most of us, puzzled over in
our school -days.
We got the idea of busses from the
French, and it will be seen from our illus-
tration that the vehicle started in London
by one Shillaber does not differ much from
that in use to -day, The L. G. 0. C. was
founded some forty years since, and its
early busses were practically the same as
those now employed, save in the form of
steps by which the roofs are reeched. Pro-

comes will probably entail the supplanting
altogether ot the bus as we know it. Al-
ready the pavements in the City cannot
properly hold eh° pedestrians, and it is not
unreasonable to suppose that, bys and by,
vehicle•traffic will have to be relegated to
overhead or underground. About the level
of the first -floor windows, footways could
be erected, alongside which electric trams
would rim; lifts, here and there, leading
to higher stations, between whichserviee
of air -ships or dirigible balloons would fly.
The day may also come when the ever-
moVing pavement will be something more
than a dream of a German engineer. There
appears no reason that it should not work
in subterranean passages, ventilated and
worked by tidal force.
Bus -wheels, in England, are also painted
yellow: I made a partially successful at-
tempt to discover the reason. "'Because
they always have been,and so it's our
color," Was the answer given by one of the
employees.
The bus -traffic in London is something
enormous. The London General Omnibus
Company alone owns 1,037 busses, 10,000
horses, and employs 4,000 men. The trains,
which are making their way slowly, are
only busses on rails, They have a greater
claim to antiquity, the idea of them dating
baok as far as 1602, though cars for pas-
sengers were not employed until 1832. The
early raile were of wood ; iron was fitst used
in 1767. There is Still at DartmoOr the re-

Dwelling on a greater danger has made
people on this side of the Atlantic some-
what indtfferent to oleo: fear of sinellpox has
seemingly been swallowed up in fear of the
cholera. Before the latter dreaded dieease
got a feothold in Europe two years ago, an
outbreak of smallpox so extensive and so
obsess that now raging in Chicago would
have caused no little elarm in this country.
Now it excites but the mildest interest,
though lake navigation has been open
several weeks, and the volume of Western
traffic that passes through the Country is
large. Nor is Chicago's want of success in
bringing the disease under subjection re-
assuring, It is scarcely owing to good
management there that the malady has
not spreldnore widely. At some points
west of limas° a few cases have crop-
ped up, and now one traceable to that
city is reported from Kingston. Not only
have the greater terrors of cholera apparent-
ly belittled those of smallpox in the minds
of most people, but so also bas the general
consciousness that prevention is easy.
Vaccination is so simple end effectual a safe-
guard that it is liable to be put off until the
danger is at hand. But notwithstanding
that vaccination is in everbody's reach,
smallpox is hard to dislodge from Chicago.
It is not lose loathsome or less terrible or
less tenacious than ever it was, and it will
be well not to forget that it is active and
virulent in a city which distributes goods
all over the continent. At is a good time
to give close etteption to sanitary mutton,
and to get vaccinated, though that course
is dictated by precaution, not by alarm.
A Tree That Shines.
Comparatively few people are aware of
the existence in Neeada of a luminous tree
of large proportions. The Indians have al-
ways entertained a wholesome dread of this
tree, and have a number of legends con-
nected with it, some of which are clearly
founded on the biblical story of Moses
and the burning bush. As a result of their
superstition the tree has come to be known
as the "witch tree" and is quite a source of
interest among people for miles around.
It is a valuable land -mark at night as it can
be seen half a mile away, and the phosphor-
ous substance which exudes from it is so
powerful that it is possible to read a few
words of print held close to it.
In Chicago.
Ellen—I bet you can't guess what Miss
Smartleighgot engaged for?
Maude—Give it up. What fox?
Ellsid—She means to get married.
A tree that smokes' has been discovered
in the Sapaneee village of Ono. It is sixty
feet high, and just after sunset every
evening smoke issues from the top of the
trunk. It is oohed the volcanic tree.
