BEEF BREEDS. Moat Making Qualities of Different Breeds f Cattle. We present this week to oar readers who are interested in cattle breeding an assortment of the various types of beef steers. Some of them are portraits of steers that took prizes at fat cattle shows. FIO. 1 DEVON PRIZE WINNER. No. 1 is a beautiful Devon steer that took first prize at the Smithfield (Eng.) Fat Stock show. Compare his points now with those of No. 8. FIO. n PRIZE SHORTHORN STEER. No. 2 is a splendid Shorthorn that took the sweepstakes prize for the model beef animal at the Chicago Fat Stock show. no. m PRIZE HOL8TEIN-FRIESIAN STEER. No. 3 also took a prize as a beef steer of the Holstein-Friesian breed at the y Chicago Fat Stock show. The Holsteins are of two strains, beef and dairy, the difference being distinctly marked to connoisseurs. The animal in the picture represents the beef breed. no. IV HEREFORD STEER. No. 4 is not a prize winner, bat just a plain, good conditioned steer in private life. He belongs to the massive and pictaresque Hereford family. Via. V QAJLLOWAY STEER. Ifo. 5 is not a prize winner either, but like the Hereford a plain, honest beef in private life, by breed a Galloway. In the northwest the Galloways and that other hornless breed, the Aberdeen Angus, are growing more popular among the beef raisers. The Galloways stand a severe climate especially well. Now look at these fine beeves, examine their points, and decide for yourself which breed will bring you in the most money for the expense and trouble of raising it Wool for the World's Fair. The following circular has been sent oat from Washington as supplemental to the agricultural department's earlier request for wool samples: The agricultural department will ex hibit at the Columbian exposition be tween "3,000 and 4,000 wool samples from all parts of the world. They will cover ail classes of wool, from the highest to the lowest. Especial attention has been given to- the selection of samples of wools that compete with our home grown wools. These were procured through a special agent of the treasury department sent abroad for the purpose of procuring samples for custom house standards. The department is desirous of obtaining the American samples di rect from the growers, so that compari son can be made with wools pf the same character grown in different parts of the country. The samples will be placed in glass jars labeled with the grower's name and address, also with description of the sheep and wool. Assistant Secretary Willits is giving wool and sheep especial attention, as he is desirous of furthering the interests of this great industry. With this view he has requested Hon. John T. Rich to make a report to accompany this exhi bition. Mr. Rich will, when the col lection is completed, examine the sam ples comparatively, and being a practi cal sheep breeder of long experience his report will be of great value. Each sample should be about one pound in weight and taken from the body of the fleece. Bags for the same and blank in voices are furnished by the department Samples can be mailed without the pay ment of postage. Should you desire tc have your clip represented please ad dress for particulars, Edward A. Greene, Philadelphia, or John T. Rich, Elba, La peer county, Mich. - Beeves intended to be shipped abroad afcoald weigh before the fattening com snsnces from 800 to 900 pounds. Harvard Examinations. Harvard university is spreading her Mi over a very wide extent of territory this year. It is announced that examina atoM ' for admission to that institution inio be held simultaneously in no less than twenty-five places, including Eng land, Germany and Japan. It looks as it Harvard wanted the earth and was in fair way to get a large section of it.

Dairyman and Cbeesemaker Most Be Good, Friends. A cheesemaker should smell of every batch of milk before he accepts it, and if it smells sour or tainted he should never allow it to go into the vat Some makers, especially the inexperienced ones, do not really know the smell of good milk, and so without knowing it they daily accept fluid that is off the hooks in quality. Of course, before the process of manu facture is completed, they either dis cover the imposition that has been made upon them, or else attribute the trouble with the curd to some fault of their own in manufacture. What hours and days of anxiety and mental misery have re sulted to makers when the latter view has been taken by them, and it was the wrong one! At last in despair a state expert from the dairy commission would -be called in, and he, aided by long ex perience, would soon find the cause of the trouble. I have known a number of instances like this, and with the result mentioned. A cheesemaker should first train himself to know the odor and taste of pure nor mal milk, and then he is capable of de tecting the slightest changes from such a standard. A word about the relations existing between maker and patron. A dairyman bites his own nose off who exhibits tem per because a cheesemaker finds fault with his milk. Every dairyman should know good milk from poor just as well as the makers, and if such a patron con siders that his maker is finding fault with his product without cause it is cer tainly justifiable for him to resent it. The average maker is not such a kind of a fellow, however. He is only too thank ful to have a large percentage of patrons who furnish perfect milk, and reserves all of his faultfinding for those who de serve it It is all important, however, that every dairyman should be perfectly fa miliar with the variations of milk qual ity. If he is not he will not know how to feed a dairy to produce good milk and to understand the system of preserving its quality while it remains in his care. No reasonable dairyman will be indig nant at a maker if told by him that his milk is not just right. He will rather consider him his friend and benefactor for so making the case plain. It is as much for his own benefit as for that of the maker that the milk should be all right, and he knows it In nine cases out of ten where dairymen become an gry when spoken to about poor milk quality, they know that they are fur nishing bad milk and have no disposi tion to stop it At least this has been my observation. In other cases I have known intelli gent farmers to show the poorest judg ment about caring for their milk over night of all of their agricultural work. In these instances such farmers will ex ercise no more caution in preserving their milk through a close, muggy night than when the weather is very cool. It has been my experience to always find a few of such dairymen in every cheese making community, and with such men for patrons there can be but one result in bad v. eather, bad milk for the maker. Some manufacturers find it so difficult "to keep on the right side" of their care less patrons and criticise their milk quality that they daily accept damaged milk from them, say nothing and do their best by their own diligence to make it into marketable cheese. Mr. Dairy man, do you think that a maker is your friend who will do that? Do not deceive yourself, for he is working against his own interests, and yours, too, by any such unwise magnanimity. A maker who will flatly refuse to take from yon spoiled or impure milk is your friend every time so far as your own financial interests go. The field governing the facts which I have here mentioned is a Very large one, and calls for continued labor by every person interested in better dairy work. The enlistment of the dairymen them selves in this righteous cause I consider to be the main thing to assure success, and I must appeal to them all to be con scientious in this regard for the Beason of 1892. George E. Newell in American Cultivator. Buttermilk as a Horse Medicine. I see in your last issue a short notice of the use of sour buttermilk for scratches on horses. I don't doubt it in the least, for I have used it for several things and found it good in every case. I will give you a simple and cheap remedy for colic or grub or botts in horses. When you first see your horse sick you give him a quart of buttermilk the first thing yon do, and let him loose; in fifteen or twenty minutes give him one more dose, just as the first, and put him to work. I have been using it for four or five years, and don't use anything else. It is a sure cure, and don't be afraid to try it Every farmer should have a little buttermilk at his house most any time. I give it to my colts and horses every day, and don't know what a case of colic or botts is. It keeps your stock sleek and fat all the time. J. H. Cockrell in Southern Live Stock Journal. " Don't Overnreas. A frequent mistake is to apply tod strong pressure at first to the newly hooped curd. The pressure should be gradual and the snug squeeze only given after several hours. The white whey that starts from a severely pressed curd is rich in butter fats, which will not ap pear if the curd is allowed to settle firm ly in the hoop before strong pressure is applied. The facts go to show that the average full cream cheese has parted with far too much of its fats in press, vats, drainers and hoops, and is often found to be half akim when it reaches the consumer. Exchange. Bed Demolished, Oecopants fjnharmed. A strange freak of a bolt of lightning occurred at Jeannette during the heavy storm last evening. Mr. and Mrs. Har ry Exisman reside in a small tenement house close to the Catholic church. They were in bed and asleep when the storm began to rage. Suddenly their bed was torn from beneath them and re duced to splinters. A bolt of lightning had struck the house and passed through the wall into the room occupied by them. The couple were not hurt Pittsburg Post. A WARNINQ-DONT USE BIG WORDS. Ia promalgaUag esoteric cogitations or articulating superficial seuti mentalities and philosophical or psychological observations, beware of platitudinous ponderosity. Let year statements possess a clarified concise ness, compacted oomprehensibleness, coale Bceut consistency aad a concentrated cog ency. Eschew all conglomerations of flatulent garrulity, jejune babblement and asinine af fectations. In trying tc impress upon others the superiority of the Wisconsin Central Lines, and why yon and so man others use this thoroughfare from 8t Paul and Min neapolis and Dalnth and Ashland to Mil waukee, Chicago and points east and south, it is not necessary to use jawbreakers. Let your extemporaneous descanting and un premeditated expatia tioas have intelligibil ity and veracious vivacity, without rhodo montade or thrasonical bombast. Sedulously avoid all polysyllable profundity, psittace ous vacuitv. ventriloaual verbosttv and van- diloquent vapidity, shun double entendre, prurient jocosity aad pestiferous profanity , obscurant or apparent. In other words. talk plainly, nata rally, sensibly, and truth fully say the Wisconsin Central Lines is tub route, aad that ends it. This office has been favored with a conv plete catalogne and price list of the Ever green Nurseries, of Evergreen, Wis. This nursery is well known throughout the west. having been many years established. The proprietor, Mr. Geo. Pinney, has probably distributed more evergreens and forest trees through this state than any other man in the country. Although, he raises and sella millions of forest trees 'annuall. his spe cialty is evergreens. He plants huudreds of pounds oi the seeds every year, ana now has nearly three hundred varieties on his lists, fully equalling the largest nurseries in Europe, which supply the nurseries and parks of royalty. Of course, having such a large trade and growing them in such large quantities, he is able to give better prices for the same quality of trees than any other nurseryman in the country. It is well worth the while of any person to send for his lists. .1 HMNU TrE HOUSBHU FOOD-' I Wmm BOTH BODY AND ThtKBcl JL TWT & WU UNDfjUTOO; Then wire gauze oven pOQRisQl 'vpfmovEOFsaoMDins BEST OF COOK PREJIt THBI33 ail the ma-Fxatqnttt ft:yiwnar IF YOU WAST THXTBESX Buy the CHARTER OAK.
