WACTICAL FARING,
Bad Air Maks Bad Milk,
A Correepondeut: writes 1—In order to
Alum the influence of foul odore jn the air
upon milk, I will recount an experioneo of
mine that may be of cervico to some dairy
readers, Iu was in my early experience as
a ebeeee-maker.
'Events had passed oil etnootbly at the
factory 'anti] in June, when I began W be
bothered with tainted milk. I pooh leeatod
it as coming froln one dairy, and, moreover,
the faotory's largest patron, I informed:
his hiredman of the damaged condition of
the milk, and sent minute instructions and
auggeetione to his master relative to ate
bettor care over night on the farm, through
the employment of aeration end cooling,
fully expecting that .the laoteal quality
would improve forthwith, On the 'contrary,
it gabeyen wore°, though I was informed
that my ivatvucttone had been carried out
faithfully.
I told my employer that the milk of this
patron must be rejected altogether, es it
was giving us tainted curds and damaged
stook right along. To my surprise my em•
ployor, who vine himself an old cheese -
maker, amid Slat it would never do to reject
this patron's milk, he being an extensive
and influential farmer who would quickly
take offense, patronize some rival factory,
and seriously cripple the profits of our in.
Btitution. I was further informed that it
had always been the euetom t.o accept,
under mild protest, such mills at factories
thereabout, and the maker was expected
to do his beet to alter its quality for the
better during the malting process.
Strange as it may seem to the well -in.
formed, progressive, dairyman, the above
idea has taken such root, in some eastern
dairy communities that as a law of custom
is still handicaps factory management. To
the outsider ie seems preposterous that a
dairyman should suppose he could foist bad
milk upon a manufacturer to the detriment
of all his neighbors in the associated system,
but it comessimply from a lack of know.
.ledge of what is bad milk and of its always
•disastrous results in thecae making and
butter production.
In the inatanoe mentione9, rather than
submit to a custom that was supposed to
-wait till the milk quality righted itself,sub.
eject to patient admonitions from the maker,
I determined to visit the farm and look for
the source of trouble. I found that they
had been planting corn and fertilizing it in
the hill with stable dung and night soil.
The heaps of manure had been onlypartial-
ly removed, and from the open pitsiu which
there were the deed carcasses of several
lambs and pigs, arose a sickening stench
that could be smelled ton rods off. Half
way between the barnyard and where the
privy vault had been opened stood the milk
wagon, on which the cans of milk tested
during the night. I talked earnestly with
this dairyman about the serious trouble that
his milk was causing, and requested him to
remove his milk wagon out of range of bad
odore. He did so, and the next morning
hismilkwas perfectly pure and continued
so during the retie of the summer. After
seeing the condition of thinga about his pre.
'niece, I understood why - aeration of the
milk in that tainted atinosphare had aug-
mented rather than helped the evil.
In connection with the above instance I
would say that one not practically connected
with 'cheese or butter making has but .a
faint idea of the misooneeptions of what
constitutes a desirable milk quantity, as
entertained by a vast number of dairymen.
To a consowutious maker whose skill is
compromised by Om lack of co-operation
on the farm, the situation is particularly
exasperating. I often think that cheese
and butter makers are in better position to
do practical reform work among those
dairymen who need it, than are any other
class. For eight months in the year the
good and bad methods of every dairy farm
in their jurisdiction, es indexed by the milk
duality from each, pusses before them.
They know just where the fault lies with
A, le and 0, and can often set him aright
more effectually than oould the argument of
an institute worker in speaicieg in a general
way to a general audience.
1 think that it is a most uusatiafaotory
plan for makers to wait for somebody else
to come along and spur up their delinquent
patrons to better methods. Every maker
ehould hustle for himself in this matter end
the result will be some of the best reform
dairy work ever inaugurated.
Troublesome Flies.
"A merciful man is .merciful to his
beasts," therefore, Dare for the cattle by
applying some greasy substance which will
keep the flies oft from them. Prof. Sling-
erland, of Cornell University, says : "Two
classes of remedies aro practicable; pre-
ventive, to prevent injury to the cattle by
keeping off the fly; destructive, by de-
stroying the inoeot in its larval or adult
condition. The fly may be kept away
from the cattle for several days by the ap-
plication of almost any greasy ettbstance to
the parts more liable to attack. Fish oil,
to which a little carbolic aoid has been
added as a healing agent, is the meet highly
recommended ; oommon axle -grease, tal-
low, kerosene emulsion, or sheep dip may
be used to good advantage. The substanoe
may be applied with a sponge or with it
spray. One thorough application is often
sufficient ,hut as its repelling power usually
Iasis only five or six days, it may bo neces.
eery to repeat the application. Among
the destructive agents for the fly, toba000
powder is 'considered the best. It ehould
be dusted on those parts where the flies
most generally congregate, and it ie cer-
tain death to those that aomo in oontaot
with it, The larva may be destroyed by
scattering a little lime or plaster on the
fresher droppings in the field. Thio ehould
be done early In the Beason, as every larva
killed then ropreeonte the daub of many
i, flies later."
Thin Out the Poultry.
The most profitable part of the laying

and after the long -drawn pain of the tedious

I slept know not, but I was aroused by the
creaking of the lattioe on the window close
to where my couch stood. It had been
thrown open and the moon was pasting its
rays into the spacious, if barren, dining'
room. I gazed dreamily out upon the
peaceful African landscape, bathed in the
light of the midnight moon, and was think-
ing of another landscape, thousands of miles
away, and wondering if I should ever see it
again, when suddenly a shadow fell across
the lattioe,and there but a few feet from me
stood a man dressed in the uniform of the
British infantry. As my relative and his
two sons were the only white men in our t
party, they were lying in various pictur- w

lakes, ordiroobly on the lines of railway,
and particularly convenient in facilities for
handling and shipment. Yet, strange to
say, there are few, 1f any, that are worked
to anything lilts theitheir'eapaeity of produc.
tion, writes Mr. J. A. Radford in The
Empire.
We but imperfectly understand our great
resources, for our erre is enormous, and
there are vett emote of land that remain to
be prospected, especially in the north,
seldom trod by white teen, who are not
either trappers or hunters, men whose
knowledge of minerals or indications of
them is decidedly meagre. Our expert.
mental prospecting and examinations are
very incomplete apd superficial, but enough
has been done in the regionnorth of Superior,
and Huron, once believed to be a desolate
end worthless waste of rook and muskeg,
to show that it is possessed of the richest
minerals in the province.
Ontario's situation at present suggests a
comparison with our 000siosae'oss the bor-
der, and when we observe the rapid inoreaoe
of mineral development there, the great
'dream of capital that is continually pour.
ing into their mining districts, and the
transformation of regions but lately acces-
sible into habitable places and scenes of
home life and industrial activity, the con-
clusion seems apparent that if Ontario could
teamed in directing some of her wealth,
energy and enterprise into some of her econ-
omle mineral locations, results of a like
tendency would inevitably accrue.
IT IS A 0ISOR100
and a compliment at the same time to no
that more than half the capital now iuveat-
ed in mines and mining property iu Ontar-
io ieunder the control of Americans, and
we must open our eyes to this fact.

One of the main reasons why some Can-

but rather that their knowledge of im•

What is True 7
Truth to self has many opponents. Men-
tal indolence is one of them. It often takes
much energy and labor to find out what is
true. A man thinks that he holds certain
beliefs which he has never even grasped.
He has hoard of them from others, and
takes them for granted without a thought.
It even troubles him to have them called in
question. Yet they are really not his.
He has not earned them by any effort, nor
can he claim them by any right. It is not
loyalty to truth that makes him cling to
them. It is merely adherence to a babib of
thought which he has contracted. It will
be said that no one has the time or the
power to investigate every opinion present.
ed to him. Thiele very true. We do well to
believe much that we cannot prove, but
which has been fully established by those
in whose special ability and judgment we
implicitly trust. But upon subjects that are
still controverted by those who study them
—problems of soionoe upon which
scientists disagree, or principles of
government on which statesmen differ, or
questions of fact which observers view front
opposite standpoints—bhe man who is true
to himself will either investigate dispassion-
ately, and labor to form just oonclusioits
thereof, or, if this be impossible, be will
bold his judgment in suspense, and refrain
from proclaiming as a truism that of whose
truth he ie not sufficiently convinced. In
the investigation of religious or scientific
truth there is no greater fault than the
disposition to rush to conclusions, The
process by which the truth of any.prinoiple
isdisooverablo is necessarily slow, and it is
only folly or presumption to autioipete its
work.

SCARCITY OF FARM LABORERS.
A Chance for the Caemnileyed in the cities
and T,'vns.
A a time when people's minds are ocoupi
ed with public questions matters regarded
as of minor importance ere allowed to drop
out of eight although they may have no in-
considerable bearing 013 oar seceder nation-
al condition. One of these is the general
complaint of the soaroity of farm laborers in
the interior countiesof the tour try, and is
worthy of thoughtful attention at this time,
when cities and towns are greatly distressed
by the number of the unemployed. There
is no doubt a large proportion of these could
find employment on farms if they were so
disposed. Certainly the prevailing wages
is low when compared with the regular
wages of artisans and skilled laborers,beiug
on many farms from fifty to seventy-five
cents aclay ; bub that is nob so bad in the
country as it sounds in the town, and is
certainly much better than dependentidle-
ness. It must uot,however, be overlooked,
in defense of the idle tradesman that a very
largo proportion of the men would be of no
use on a farm even If they went there, and
could not earn even .the prescribed half -
dollar if they tried. The boys from the
farms, or a majority of them, at least, have
gone to the towns or to the factories and
work-shops,and if they have learned a trade
it is generally one that unfits them
for buoolio employment. Farmers, who
are a shrewd aloes of men and reason on
the closest margin, will seldom give in-
ploytnent to.tu iron worker, for example,
for the simple reason that he is about as
useless in the hay -field as the farmer hitn.
self would he at the furnace and as much
in everybody's way. The factory hands
could no more weild a scythe than they
could an old time battle axe. In other
words we have a surplus of people trgiog
to make a living by various forms of mane -
featuring and trading and not as many as
are needed in productive agriculture.
Farmers themselves might at the present
time, take advantage of the attention to
their own and general profit. Men have
been leaving the country for the town
because they could earn more there. The
tarmere want them back again and they
want au inducement to turn the other way.
In farming as in all other employments it
is a recognized condition that the best
wages secure the best men and the farmer,
who concludes to pay liberal wages to
first-class halide will be the moat likely to
get them, and is the one whose harvesting
will be a suooess in every respect.

and the wise manner of supplying the

that helps to sustain prices in the British

said of our butter. Virith Danish, Dutch

Our fresh creamery butter is fully equal to

teems to be that too many packers and

It is expensive work, however, "curing"
butter in cold storage. Time is no friend

and the long confinement ;lust tell even
worse upon the store•packed article.
Butter for the British markets must be
carefully made—of a firm and even texture,
and with a moll flavor suggestive of our
splendid pastures. It must then be hand-

It should pass from maker to user as soon

It has often been contended by
physiologists and men of science gen-
erally, that nervous energy or'nerv-
oue impulses which pass along the
nerve fibres, were only other names
for electricity. This eeemingly plane-
ible statement was accepted for a
time, but has been completely aban-
doned since it has been proved that
the nerves are not good conductors of
electricity, and that the velocity of a
nervous impulse is but 100 feet per
second—which is very much slower
than that of electricity. It is now
generally agreed that nervous energy,
or what we are pleased to call nerve
fluid, is a wondrous, a mysterious
force, in which dwells life itself.
A very eminent specialist, Who
hag studied profoundly the workings
of the nervous system for the last
twenty-five years, has lately demon-
strated that two-thirds of all our
ailments and chronic diseases are
due to deranged nerve centres within
or at the base of the brain.
All know that an injury to the
spinal cord will cause paralysis to the
body below the injured point. The
reason for this is, that the nerve
force is prevented by the injury from
reaching the paralysed portion.
Again,when food is taken into the
stomach, it comes in oontaot with,
numberless nerve fibres in the walla
of this organ, which at once send e.
nervous impulse to the nerve centres
which control the stomach, notifying
them of the presence of food; where-
upon the nerve centres send down a
supply of nerve force or nerve fluid,
to at once begin the operation of
digestion. But let the nerve centres
which control the stomach be de-
ranged and they will not be able to
respond with a sufficient supply of
nerve force, to properly digest the
food, and, as a result, indigestion and
dyspepsia make their appearance.
So it is with the other organs of the
body, if the nerve centres which con-
trol theist and supply them with
nerve force become deranged, they
are also deranged.
The wonderful success of the
remedy known as the Great South.
American Nervine Tonic is due to
the fact that it is prepared by one of
the most eminent physicians and
specialists of the age, and is based
on the foregoing scientific discovery.
It possesses marvellous .powers for
the cure of Nervousness, Nervous
Prostration, Headache, Sleeplessness„
Restlessness, St. Vitus's Dance, Men-
tal Despondency, Hysteria, Heart
Disease, Nervousness of Females,
Hot Flashes, Sick Headache. It is
also an absolute specific for alt
stomach troubles.
