Aseptic Milk Utensils.
That all utensils which come in contact
with milk and orude cheese material should
be kept free from the contamination of
putrefactive products is well known by all.
But in snaking utensils convenient for
manual use, too little thought is put upon
their aonatruobion with a view to aseptic
conditions. Itis ono thing to say "wash
and scald that uteneil everyday,"and qui to
another to have it so formed as to be capa-
ble of free and easy cleansing. Avoid ridges
of tolderiog in all tin utensils used about
milk, cream, cheese, or butter. They offer
dreviaea and creeks in which organic matter
can collect and putrefy in spite of ordinary
cleansing.
In cheese making wo have milk starting
in ire alkaline purity and ending in acid
curd, the process taking place in one re.
eeptaole, the vat. If the germs of this

not all, for a more daugeroue infection comes
from the microbes of putrefaction, multi

should be used fu dairy manufacturing that
are made of small squares of tin patched

aseptically clean and pure. Most of the
modern vats are made with few teams,

AWKWARD RIDERS.
One Beetled Wen Thought He Stoat Go
Through she Sword Exorcise In the
Face or the Enemy.
Mr. Christie Murray, in his "Making o
a Novelist," doseribee several gawky, lout
ieh recruits who joined the Fourth Roya
Irish, a crack regi-
ment which prided
itself on being smart
and soldier. like.
One of the now men,
Sullivan by name,
though he pronoun-

such a shambling,

that the Fourth ask-

so far as he could be, he asked the sergeant
what was the use of it all.
" While I was going throueh that," said
he, " some bloomin' Russian'd be eboppin'

He thought that g h a soldier mustgo
through the sword exercise in the face of
the enemy, Tho
notion that the exercise
wee intended to give dexterity in the use
of the weapon never occurred to him.

" Halt!" snapped out thema8ter. "Pick

Two young fishermen frons the north of
Ireland joined the regiment. They came
in sea -boots, pilot-oloth trousers and
knitted jerseys, and were sent intothe
riding -school before they had time to get
their uniforms. The young sailors were at
a disadvantage in their sea -boots when
ordered to mount, for the saddles had no
stirrups.
" I can't get aboard this here craft no-
how, captain," said ons of them to the mas-
ter.
With a look of scorn the master ordered
them hoisted into the saddle. At the order
to trot, the fishermen hung on to the saddle
and headetall.
"Jack, look out, or you'll be overboard!"
shouted the master.
"Not meso long a8 rho bloomin' riggin'

Afraid of Blaeknlaii.
The New York police investigation bas
shown in its last development a slavish
willingness on the pare of New York mer-
chants to truokle to polios biackmait. They
wanted peace and the use of the sidewalk
and they paid the " ward man" for it.
' Millions for defence but not a cent for
tribute" never seems to have occurred to
them. Actually the only man in New York
trade yet found who turned and fought
police blackmail in his own poor unsuceess•
fui, but still courageous, way was a young
Armenian front Constantinople with a
little fish -stand. if the merchants of New
York had fought the police would have
been exposed before this and with a gener-
al disposition to fight wholesale blackmail
would have been impoesible, Most civic
abuses apriug from a like failure to flghb
oftioiel wrong. The unwillingness to fight
for their civil rights is a disgraceful Ameri-
can failing. Blaekmnil by the police, petty
abuses on tho sidewalk, entail nuisances in
the streets are all endured because Ameri-
cans have not gob the fighting civic temper.
A man who knows ofa case of blackmail
or oppression and does not drive it home
to punishment makes himeeif a partner in
the vile crime, He cannot dodge the re-
sponaihility. What he conceals he protects
and the punishment and expoeure of any
crane of: whioh he has knowledge is the
first duty of a good citizen. Without this
prompt and vigorous aid from good
oitizens the heads of a polios force
or the mauagers of any department
of the publio service oaunot exclude cor-
ruption: They may hunt for it, they may
puuieh it when they can ; but unless the
community is ready in each of its members
to hunt corruption down the instant it
shows up no dieciplino and no watuhfulnese
will prevent oorruption. One chief Cause
of the superior honesty and inteerfty of
the English police ie that the English pub•
lio fights blackmail whenever it appetite:
and ohassa it down. Mare of the same
fighting 2 irbue is needed here. It is sadly
looking.

Russians, judging froin their journals, are
not so far behind as many people think, and
in the Novole Vremia we find an iutorest
ingintorviow withrlvigorous veteran named
Nioolee de Sarin, who has juet celebrated
his 126010 birthday,
There ie no fake about this old gentle-
man, Fakes are not fashionable In Russia.
The necessary documents, 'inoluding his
state de oervioe, are all in good shape,.
proving non"oluoively his great age.
Nicolas de Savin was born in Parke on the
17th of apri1,1768. Ho tsibneosed all the
great events of the • revolution. He wee in
the expedition to Egypt, fought at Auster-
litz and Iepa, was wounded at Saragossa,
and decorated with the arose of the Legion
of Honor, and was all through the Radian
campaign in the third orops under Marshal
Ney.
At Berezina he was surrounded by Cossacks.
The splendid fightthat ho made against
terrific odds won the admiration of Count
Platoff, who rushed 10 and saved his Life.
He was made a prisoner of war and sent at
first to Iaroelay and afterwards to Saratof.
In this latter town he remained for over
sixty years, Darning his living as a professor
of French. He was atilt teaching when he
was over a hundred years old, It is needless.
to say that the old soldier made no fortune
in his new profession.
"My father," said he to the Vremia report-
er,"wee Colonel in the Prenoh Guards under
Louis V. I was a child when he sent me to
the Jesuits' college at Tend. Thera, in
addition to science and theology, I learned
music:, drawing, dancing, fencing, and.
riding." When ho came back to Paris in.
1790 his family wail gone. His father was
guillotined on the 10th of August the same
year, and he never could find out what be.
dine of hie mother. Later on he found his
younger brother at Rouen.
In 1898 M. de Savin enlisted in the army
formed at Havre by Napoleon for anexpedi-
tion against the English. Soon afterward
he was sent to Toulon with his regiment,
theseeond Huesnro. Nobody in the regi-
ment knew where he was going to until
after the capture apture of Malta, when it was
di000vered that the army Was on its way to
Egypt. gyp . Ho returned with his regiment to
France in 1801.
Shortly after the capture of Saragossa
Savin, with eleven of his companions, was
captured by the Spaniards. They were
sent to Seville and lodged in the Prison of
the Inquisition. " In our oell," said Savin,
"there were instruments of torture which
we need in digging ourselves oat. We
escaped one dark night, and for nearly a
month afterward we wandered in the
Sierra, living on oranges and cress. Eight
of our companions died of hardship and
privation. The other three, including my-
self, managed to get bank to the army."
The old veteran gave the reporter of the
Vremia a long account of his experience in
the campaign of 1812. When asked how
he aaccunbed for his extraordinary age and
vigor, be replied in the following Latin
lines which must warm the hearts of the
virtuous and the temperate :
Multa tulit tseitquo prior, oudavit et alsit.
Abatinuit ventre et vino.
A subscription for him has been started
both in Russia and in France, and in the
list the staffs of the Figaro and other lead-
ing Paris journals appear conspicuously.
Prof. Nicolas de Savin, probably today
the oldest man on earth, will be well eared
for.
THE KHOJAK TUNNEL.
sty 1t Creat arilaln rosecsaes the Key to
Northern. India.
On Jan. 1, 1392, by a great deal of engin-
eering, England once more strengthened
her hold upon northern India. The Khojak
tunnel was then eomploted and opened for
the public traflia. It has boon said that
England has her right band upon the
Hiudoo-Kush and her left bend upon the
Khojak, for by means of the tunnel through
the mountains she ends herself within sixty
level miles of Candahar.' The political
significance of the underl:akine fs apparent

northern India and the quick mobilization
of the forces upon the frontier strengthens

COST OF nuke.
The Iowa Agricultural ExperimenttSea-
tion bought 18 grade steers; of nine differ.
ent breeds, in the month' of July, 1891,
These eboora were calved in the spring of
1800, and March 1st, 1892, when the feed-
ing experiment began, their weights varied
from 73St pounds to 1,026E pounds, the
aggregate being 14,0511 pounds, These
steers were fed all through the spring,
aummor and fall and were finally sold in
Chicago, January 4,1893. Meantime they
had increased in weight to 27,500 pounds,
the gain being 11,878i pounds. A'he cost
of the feed consumed to make this gain is
reported to have been $800,46, which 1s at
the rate of 6.74 Dente for each pound of
live weight gain.
0080' Trkn.
During the same year,OFnrfrommoncing Jan.
uary 15, 1892, and ending January 14,
1893, an experiment was parried on at the
Cornell Station in New York to ascertain
the coat of producing milk and butter. For
this purpose an account was kept with
every milking animal in the station herd.
Whatever she ate was charged to her, and
whatever elm produced was placed to her
credit, There were 20 of these animals iu
the herd, but a large number of them were
young. Nine of them wereless than four
years old, and of these, three were under
two years of age. Each cow was charged
with food for the entire year, with no de-
duoticn for time when not in milk. The
average number of daye in milk for each
animal was 304.
The summary given on page 60 of the
bulletin
t to aa follows :

animals during the year.. $905.01

11 is a more difficult problem to reduce
the cost of the New York rations to Iowa
prices, and the Iowa rations to New York
prices. In a general way it .nay bo said
that had the steers been fed in New York
their coat would have been o.'er40per sent,
greater than it was in Iowa, and had the
()owe been fed in Iowa, the cost of their
food would have been 25 per cent, less.

ferent foods were charged

During the summer, by reason of feeding
much less grain and the bouger period of
pasturing, lot only was the actual coat of
butter much reduced, but the discrepancy
was still greater. Omitting this, however,
and making no claim on ao°oune of the fin,
maturity of some of the cows, it is quite
within bounds to say that had the blew
York herd been fart at Iowa prices, the
food cost of the butter produced, instead of
being 13.272 eta. per pound, would not
have exceeded ten cents.
nY r1to2VOTs.
As to the twenty per aeue. for offal to
be oredited to thesteera, we find that these
by-products did in fact bring 6279.26 when
sold m Chicago, which was an average
of 415.51 for each steer. The average
yield of milk by the New York cows wan
7,240,51 pounds, which, at the ordinary
price of 20 cents for skim milk, was worth
4414.48 per 00w. To offset this shortage of
$1.03 there is tate calf, whose value we
will let our readers estimate to suit them-
selves.
Most practical farmers in the Eastern
States and Provinces have 00010 to the
same decision, for they are going out or
have Bono out of beef raising and turned to
dairying. When one understands that the
pound of butter is worth on the average
market three times as notch as the pound
of beef, it is no wonder the dairyman is
more prosperous than the beef raiser.

Gentlemen ; I received a letter
from you Itfay 27th, stating that you
had heard of my wonderful recov-
ery from a spell of sickness of six
years duration. through the uss of
Souris Atonnxca.r NEnVIED, and asking
for my testimonial. I was near
thirty-five years old when I took
down with nervous prostration. Our
family physician treated me, but with-
out benefitting me in the least. ill'y
nervous system seemed to be entirely
shattered, and I constantly had very
severe shaking spells. In addition
to this I would have vomiting spells.
During the years I lay sick, my fours
had an eminent physician from Day-
ton, Ohio, and two from Oolumbus,
Ohio, to Como and examine me,
They all said I could not live, I
got to having spells like spasms, and
would lie cold and stiff for a time
after eaeh. At last I lost the use of
my body --could not, rise from my bed
or wall[ a step, and had to be lifted .
like 5 child. Part of the time I
could retail a little, rind one day saw
an advertisement of your medicine
and concluded to try one bottle. Dy
the tune I had taken ono awl one-
half bottles I could rise up and talo
a step or two by being helped, and
after I had taken five bottles in all I
felt real well. The shaking went
away gradually, and I could eat and
sleep good, and nay friends could
scarcely believe it was I. I am sure
this medicine is the best in tiro world.
I beiivo it saved my Iife. I give my
name and address, so that if anyone
doubts my statement they can write
me, or our postmaster or any citizen,
as all are acquainted with my case.
I am now forty -ono years of age,
and expect to live as long as the
Lord has use for me and .do all the
good I can in helping the suffering.
