The only answer tq this query meets a Arent affirmative. It is eiitimated that SI OW yielding 4,000 winds of milk &Luring the season of pastnre, takes from the soil not far from twenty lour pounds et mineral constituents; and of other important matters in tie? milk which see a loss to the fertility of the soil, ihe nitiogenotts portion in 4,000 pounds WIll amount to 256 pounds. The exhaustion of the soil is greatest is dairy farms from all which the milk sold ; if the butter only is removed and the milk fed to animals on the farm the exhaustion is less. Butter as a "product takes n04411010 element from she soil; WI constituents are largely de- rived from the atmosphere'the chief of which is pure carbon and no mineral Isiatter is fouud in it, e Herein is found rio little of the profit ef keeping pigs to be fed on milk, in connection with the daily farm. In Veining on this subject -we take from the New England Sarmer the following e*tract 'In connection with the batter dairy, and the feeding of skimmed milk aid Suttee-n:1ft to pigs, the mineral elements Ike replaced upon the land in a concen- trated form and add directly to its fer- tility; so that by this system the pro- ductive capacity of the soil may be kept without deterioration -it may be eau -- silly increased. The pig, of all farm animals, has the helot weight of bone in proportion to weight of carcass, and on *is account it is better for the land to teed the. refuse milk to pigs; for, by this course, the least phosphate of lime it taken. It has been regarded fair to say that sixteen potmds of skimmed Milk will make one pound of dressed pork on pigs from four weeks to six sitonths old, and from this source an femme of $20 per cow, for the season, may be obtained. Pig manure made from refuse milk is very rich in all the 'Valuable elements of a, fertilizer, and, if altundant absorbents are need, it will, -when applied to the land, cause little seal waste of soil fertility. Hence every tact shows that the best system of. dairying, to preserve the fertility of the nil, is a well-conducted system of batter making. Well, what of Cheese making' The termer who makes A specialty of keep - lig cows for a cheese factory, carries his milk to the factory and brings back only the whey. This Contains no min- eral matters, except in the very small amOunt of ossein and albumen which may. have floated off in the whey. 'hey, as is well understood, possesses vvy little manurial value, its chief *Moe is to yield animal heat and pro- duce fat. The casein of the curd con- tains nearly all the mineral metter, and this is sold in the cheese; se that by *is system the fertility of the soil is being drawn upon constantly. True, sai intelligent feeder can make a profit- able use of whey, as a food, by mixing it with feeding stuffs iioh in albumin- as.oil-cake, oat and barley mal; nr, he may largely feed these last-named substances to his cows, and thereby attain a better manure; but, unless he ileeS this, cheese -dairying, as a profit- able branch of farming, is but little, if any, better than selling milk, so far as vegarils the loss to the fertility of the soil is concerned. Better feed and the *se of bone fertilizers upon the land will supply the waste: Concerning the last, Professor Voeloker, of England, says.: "In the reclamation of wastes, and in the restoration of fertility to the worn-out pasturelands, which have been -exhausted by the colaetant removal of milk, cheese, etc., from their surface, bone manure has been very beneficial." From what has been said about the less to the soil occaeioned by the mak- ing and selling of butter and cheese, it will be readily underetood that where milk is sold, all the mineral and nitro- genous constituents which it contains are lost to the soil. These elements gave been estimated at fully two-thirds of all the cow consumes; and although this looks to be large loss, it is without eloubt correct. -Melts for the Winter Not a few of the colds and coughs which often pave the way for pulmenary troubles, ending in consumption, are the fruits of carelessness on blue Mon. day," whert the weekly washing is done. The heat; the clouds of vapor, the color of soap -suds become so intolerable that a door or window is widely opened, which clears the atmosphere but chills the workwoman. She runs in and out of doors for wood and waterperspiring, bare -beaded and bare-armed, hangs out the clothes without rubbers, and with bare hands, and at night ties up a sore throat in 3alt pork and pepper, or com- plains of a "cold in the head." The wise woman is not in such.a hurry to orna- ment her clothes -lines that she cannot seep to roll down her sleeves,slip on her rubbers, and tie something about her head and shoulders before she willfully encounters a current of cold air; neither will she handle wet, half frozen garments with bare hands, but will make herself a pair of canton flannel mittens, good big ones, which she will And a great comfort both in hanging out and bringing in ithe clothes. Such mittens are also very convenient for handling wood, etc., and aid in keeping the hands soft and white. After wash- ing, a few drops of vinegar rubbed on the hands -to kill the alkali of the soap - followed by a plentiful anointing with glycerine, rubbed in over the fire, will prevent chapping. A sensible woman will not make hereelf and her family miserable by attempting to keep a white wood floor spotless through all our muddy, sloppy winter, but will have it well painted ar oiled. I have not much patience with a woman who prides herself irt keeping the kitchen floor.' whits enough so. you could eat off it." I know that It means mach misdirected ener- gy, a waste of strength, and often a good deal of scolding. There's no occasion to eat off the floor unitise one is hard up for a dining table, and, there's no dense in fitting up a thing for a purpose for which it was never in terideee Paint your floors then, my friends, and Write an article for the Househeld in the time you would otherwise etploy in scrubbing ; that is to say, use your brains more and yor muscles less, Fermend wives of all women in the world, should make themselves the least unnecessary trouble. There is an item going the rounds of one exchanges, relative to the cleansing properties of kerosene. We knew a woman once who prescribed. kerosene% for everything, from sore throat te pear blight; she may vouch for the II parse graph which recommends housekeepers to add two tablespoOnfuls of le free grant oil to the boiling suds o wash day, saying the clothes wash 'easier, and the work is more quickly° done. We are Inclined to believe that i is the ; 130 soaking over niso ght or for me s Hied time which is prescribed, that "does the business." But whether it helps cleanse or not,there is a very pereeptible odor of kerosene &beat the clothethua washed, which is less agreeable than Lubin's Best. The work does not seem abbreviated, either, judging from the programme laid out, It may betas well to remark that it is generally being ,'borne in upon" the minds of ' house- ' keepexs that the echemical- soaps? 90 much advertised as superior detirgente, il are not really worthy the half ; hat is said for them. It is the soak ng in warm soapsuds which removes the dirt, aided by the soap, which may be of anybody's brand, or the old fashioned soft soap of our grandmothers. ? Clothe the children warmly in iflannel underclothing. We are inclined tol 1be- lieve that garments made from me flannel are warmer than the wceve un- derwear, which has very little' ich; igan Merino I wool about it. Io not think that because these flanxlele are ici colored they do not need wash 4, as frequently as if white; they ma, not look so much soiled, but the dirt is there just the same. Personal clean- liness should be impressed as it duty upon every child's mind. Manitoba Notes. Taxes to the amount of $15,000 were collected lest week in Winnipeg.

He represented ,himself as -organ- izing a steam plowing company, and also collecting information for a lectur- ing tour in England, Wyatt's ;death was due to reckless exposure tie the fierce cold of the past week. All thel' winter he persisted in wearing clothes barely warm enough for aut•umn, merely that he might produce his clothes on the platform in England, as proof of the mildness of the climate. For tep days he gradually froze to death. His de- mise was accelerated by diarrhoea, which is inevitably provoked undersuch circumstances.
