the Enterprise bulletin say that a
new swindle has developed in that sec
tion. The rogues watch the newspapers
for er-uay notices. Then one goe on to
the farmer, says he has lost such an
annual as the notice describes, and asks
to see it. Uf course, he is shown it, but
says it is not his, and goes away. Short
ly aiterward comes his confederate, who
describes the aniuiul he has lost in a
way that tallies exactly with the appear
ance of the ealray, which he, on seeing,
at once claims. Then he says he cannot
take it away and offer to sell at a bar
gain. The farmer usually purchases,
and when a little later the rightful own
er coinvH, the farmer is just that much
utu.

Hoard's Dairyman, the highest and
most reliable authority, publishes an ar
tide advocating 'cheese as a substitute
for meat, and trie to show that if cook
gave more attention to cheese for their
prepared dishes, they could produce
with it the equivalent, if not the super
ior, of meat dishes in both nutritive and
appetizing aualiiies, and to the great ad
vantage of cheese in cost. The. same ar
ticle further states that ''cheese is used

developed a cheese taste, and while it is
