SWELTERING IN JANUARY. Chicago Experiences Warmest Winter Weather In 39 Years. Chicago, Jan. 25. Chicago Unlay exerienced the warmest January weather since 1870. The temperature reached 66 above, the former record being 05. thia point being reached in 1870, and again in IS, 6. January 29. 190t, the temperature reached 61 above, but only for a brief time. Tuduy people went about thinly-clad, fomaking wraps, and in homes and office all heat was shut off and win- lows and door thrown oien to the limit. Physicians say the unseasona ble weather will result in much illness, as it will plant the germs of pneumo nia and kindred ailments. Continued warm southerly winds are resiwnaible fr the peculiar conditions here. Kain is predicted for tomorrow, fter which it will become colder. le- ciilcdly warmer weather prevails throughout the middle west, and the snow is disappearing everywhere. One cculiarity of the unusual weather is the s ggy nature or the atmosphere, milking it difficult to breathe. Duke Again Triumphant. Waaliintrton. Jan. 25.

There are 2l,!0i,OilO milch cow tn (he United Htutes an average of one cow to four of the population. .The fact that there hit been an Increase per ciipllu of the consumption of milk and a decrease of cow ier capita of the population Indlente that there baa been an Improvement In the quality of tha dairy cow of the country. In the decade of 1S! to 1100 the average production of every dairy cow bowed flu InrreiiM" of 1,000 pound of milk, or a commercial gain of $211, 000,000. Yet with till Improvement ad mitted, there are many dulrlea thnt are being operated at a loss. The life of a dairy cow I eatlmnted at seven years and her annual depreciation represents one-seventh of her full value, which Is t nk en Into consideration In computing the profits of the herd. If the dairy man would ascertain If his herd la pay ing a profit ho needs to clinriee for the help to operate It, the cost of the feed, the Interest on the Investment aud the normal depreciation of the value of the cows. All these Item enter Into fixed ojieratlng charge and need to be deducted from the gross recelpU of the dairy before profit enn be computed. The receipts of tho dairy should not only pay the ocrittliiK exiienaes and fixed charge, but also leave a liberal balance for profit. Homemade Cabbage Caller.

Cut four slots 7 Inches long on a slant, as shown by dotted line, so the cabbage will fall through easily. Next cut two clrclea 4 lfe In diameter. Null one to the larg wheel on the back and leave the other loo on the shaft to net a a bearing. Make a frame to admit the wheel, leaving 2 Inches clear, and Just wide enough ao the knlvea do not strike the side. Mnke a top over the wheel, and put a hopiH'r on the opjmsite able from the crank. The knives are 8 Inches long and can be made from an !d buck saw and ground down sharp, with a bevel ou one side. Screw theae on tao wheel at a slant according to the thick in the cubbnge I wanted. A square hole should be cut through the center of the wheel for the ahuft. Farm and Ilotua. Tim fur Oal I.aad.

In about forty m I miles the curdling mess Is pounded and then the whey pressed out. Afterward forms aro filled aud further drainage permitted. Salt Is rubbed on the outside until It becomes slippery; theu the cheese Is set away In the cellar to ripen for a month or two and the genus do the rest Tobacco Grower Combine. The Union Tobacco Society, repre senting tobacco-growing Interests In Kentucky, Indlnun, Ohio, Tennessee aud Wisconsin, with estimated assets f $:),0O0,tHHl, has been organised. The purpose of the organization u said to lie to protect the tobacco growers from a mlnluiimi price, nnd tho consumer from a maximum scale. Tho Interests of the growers In the States named will he pooled and the tobacco sold through a Hoard of Directors. Calves' Drain.

No one knows so well aa the practical farmer how rupldly a naturally fertile noil may be exhausted by cultivation, in this couutry the tobacco lauds of Virginia afford an example ot this rapid decline In fertility.

There must lie no guesswork abotit feeding the calf. The stomach of the young calf I easily ruined by slipshod method of feeding. Think of this when tempted to feed It milk that la too hot or too cold lu a bucket thnt Is not as clean and sweet a It should be. Milk that sticks to the side of tha pall and becomes sour Is a bad propo sition, a It may cause sn attack of the scour. This trouble means s break In tho cnlfs growth. perliRi a stunted calf, ami In the era an animal of little value. Do not oblige the rows to bnnk about the straw pile until the chilly nights are paat. Dry spota for them to sleep on are usually very scarce -it that son of the year. Don't turn the cattle to pasture too early. A good plan to follow Is to wait until you conclude the grass Is suffi ciently largo to turn them on, then wait a week or ten days longer. A Srlf-rdla Crib. A combined corn crib and feeding shed I shown In the sketch. The feed bunk Is covered by a lean-to shed 10 rr.Eiii.xo Kiiro ami coax rata. feet wide. Small doors oienlng Into tho crib every two feet Just over the manger allow the corn to come out without shoveling. This shed should be built on the south side of the crib In a bright, sunny place. Thla arrangement Is a great labor saver and quite an aid In bad weather, esjicclally If the ends are Inclosed. Farm and Home. Tees f Cora. The Crop Iteporter la endeavoring to tell for what pur)" corn is used. In the year l&rj. so this authority states, the total crop was 2,000.000,000 busbela, (f this crop 241.OU0.OU0 bushels were consumed in the flour aud grist mills; M.OOO.OOO In manufacture of starch, 0, ouo.ooo for malt liquors. 17.000100 In distilling of liquors. 40.000,000 for glu cose, i:m).OUO,ouo for exiMirt. and 13. OUM.tiOO for seed. This accounts for only 11I.3 per cent of the entire crop, most of the remainder being used for feeding purposes. The more one atudles the corn crop, the more interesting It becomes. Its magnitude as a fowl giver and labor-employer grows with every observation one makes of the corn crop. Springfield Register. Farm Wells. Unsanitary dairy wells are a menace to health, and as the country becomes more closely settled more and more care la necessary to provide good water. The director of the Chicago bygieulc laboratory reports that of 153 wells on near-by dairy farms, examined by the Inspectors, only eleven were found to be safe for domestic purposes. In all cases tho safe wells were those lined with cement, with cement covers, with a protecting flange of cement several feet out from the well. In some of the wells used for washing milk utenslla, a high percentage of colon bacteria were found, and lu some cases inauure could be delected microscopically and by the odor. Mltlrt for Lata Cropa. Millet as a late crop to plant In case of the failure of the corn crop or fail ure to get corn planted at all. Is rec ommended by the Ohio station. The earlier sorts can be seeded through July, and make fair fields. Hay Is the most common use made of the crop, and for this It compares favorably with timothy, both In composition and di gestibility. It la good feed for cattle, horses and sheep, but when overripe should not lie fed to horses exclusively, as It affects the kidneys. Millet Is also grown for pasture seed, and even for silage. As a soil cleaner, It Is also al most equal to a summer fallow. tirriua Mod of Preaervlnsi Milk. A German latent secltlcatlon de scribes a process for preserving milk by removing all dissolved oxygon hy means of the addition of a small quan tity of ferrous carbonate. The process Is based ou the fuct that freshly-precipitated ferrous carbonate In the pres ence of oxygon Immediately asslmllat.i oxygen and evolves an equivalent quan tity of carbon dioxide. One part of ferrous carbonate Is sutllcient for ISO, 000 parts of milk, and the propertlet of the milk are not altered lu any way by the addition, which should bo made before the uillk Is boiled. Cribbing Cora, The corn crib should bo natrovr and slatted ou the sides nnd ends, so that a free circulation of air Is possible lu all directions. Some farmers place hol low crates In the cribs as they are tilled, so that there will be no heat lug or spoiling In the center of the mass. Heating destroys tho corn germ. Miilaaaea Cake, Into two-thirds of a cup of molasses stir a tablespooufut of melted butter, two-third of a cup of coffee, a half- cup of sugar, one beaten egg, one and a half teasiKKiiifuis of soda dissolved in a i!iuii-r.HH.'iiiui 01 uoi water, huu one aud one-half cups of flour. Mis well and bake lu a loaf tin. Ralalua Variety. Diversified farming does not atop at crop growth from tho soil, but should include a diversity of live stock. Some good cattle, a few good, capacious brood mares, soino good breeding hogs, a few or moro sheep, goats and fowls of di verse sorts should be found nn every farm, for they do not Interfere or con flict with each other.
