a- Farm Notes ! A Large Prune trop. P B. D. Teter from the Liberty neigh borhood, and one of the largest and best ,Jrune districts of Oregon, leftatthp Statesman office Thursday a small limb from one of his Italian prune trees. The limb was thick with embryo prunes showing that if they all mature there will be as much fruit on that tree as it will be al.le to hold up. This is only a sample of tne other Italian prune trees In this orchard, and the orchard ol Mr. Teter is not favored in this respect above thrum of his neighbors. There will be a bite crop of Italian prunes in that dts trict, from present indications. There was some damage on low lands, but the blossoms on an Italian pruue tree are so thick that a large percentage of them maybe blighted, and yet enough re main to mature a full crop of fruit. By the way, some gentlemen in the States man office a few days ago were diseas ing the reason why there was more damage to the prune blossoms on the low lnd than on the hills. One of them explained that the cold air is heavier and settles to the bottom, while the warmer air is lighter and goes to the top. He explained that the air in a room near the ceiling is much warmer thn that near the floor, a fact weh known to paperhangers. np, on the mountains, he explained, that there is another stratum of air, which is colder than the lower levels. It is well known to the residents of the South Salem bills that they live in a dif ferent atmosphere from those down town on the bneinets streets. There is about three degrees difference in the winter time between the first hill south of Commercial street and in the street in the main part of town, at the States man office for instance three degrees leas of coldness up there than down here. And three degrees less of warm bees in the summer time there than here. Salem Statesman. First Crop la Forty Years ica and are" prepared for keeping the milk tool as it should be for the cream to rais'dwell. , . The separator cream should be cooled as quickly as possible. Put it in cold water and stir a few minutes witn n spoon, ine next cream muBt uo mm- oughly cooled before putting the two or more skims together. In this way the cream can be kept till there is enough for a churning and all nponKl at one time without any danger of hb becoming rancid, and there never need be a shad ow nf fliftrfnce in the auahtv of your butter. I have heard the objection raised that separator cream made oily, salvy butter. This ia not the cace at all. The gram is iust as nice as when the crea n is al ln,n1 tn rin I think the cram of butter depends largely on the tempera tnr nt whirh it ia churned and the way it is worked afterward. Ten minutes is ample time to take the separator apart, wash and scald it, and put it away beginning w.shinii as soon as i stops running While it ia warm it is much easier cleaned. I wash with warm water and scald each piece with boiling water after I wash it. Leave the parts apart to air till you want it for use againr The cost of a good separator is a great drawback to a great many people, but with seven or eight cows you can get enough more cream in one year to more than pay for the separator. Then alter hat will be that much clear gain, to say SU11 Turner of. th! ? J""" tne separator is perietuj jcc. ly adjusted and run with proper speed there is scarcely a trace of cream leJt in the milk. I he milk is strained and run through the separator while still warm If you are raising calves by hand take the milk from the separator and feed them without the work of heating it for them, or it can be fed to the pigs and all pails washed and no cooling of milk or pumping of water The garjarator is not bird to tun, but you have to learn to run it with ease. It turns with a swinging motion some thing like a barrel churn. Our 6-year old girl can run it with good speed for while. Ihe expense of the feeparator has been about 75 cents a year, principally for rubber packing rings and oil. The sep arator has ceased to bo an experiment By a singular coincidence the Gettys burg wheatfield, which the contending 1 but j8 a necessity, the same as any of forces swept across six times in deadlv Lu BOthcr imnroved machinery on the conflict July, 1883, is now blooming -afrain with ripening wheat for the first time since the battle.

Gettys burg Progress. Jtre Separator PrefltflTaler which was published in the Homestead Experiments in the canning of cheese have been successful at the Oregon Sta tion and bulletin tells all about them. Some of its concluding paragraphs are as follows: The market now demands food to be in sealed packages and not to much in bulk as formerly ; and the sale of cheese will be increased when it can be pur chased in cans or packages upon which is marked its age and flavor, the latter being designed by letter or by name; this will be accomplished by the use of pure cultures and by curing the cheese in cans, or bv some other means which will exclude the influence of other organ isms. It seems as though the preeent method of making-cheese is not in keeping with the care exercised in making butter. From the time milk is received at the dairy until the butter is wrapped in paper, the hands of a modern dairyman never come in contact with either ma' terial or product. In cheese making it is handled with the hands throughout the Drocees. and it is not uncommon to ee an operator bending over a vat with his hands and arms submerged nearly to the elbows, stirring the curd during the 'cooking and other parts of the operation. This would interfere to more marked degree in the flavor of cheese made with a pure culture, man it would with butter if treated in the same manner, because the flavoring of cheese is a secondary reaction. Means may yet be devised, by which the curd will be handled with fingered paddles, or other implements, doing the work of the hands, thus obviating the introduction of many objectionable germs. As an article of food for export trade, or army use, cheese cured in cins would be very desirable, as it is conden eed. nutritious, and in convenient form for transportation. There are others be sides cheddar cheese, which could be made and cured in cans. A soft cheese having the consistency of thick cream that could be spread upon bread, would likely find a ready market in the Orient Some work, was done in this line, but no definite results reached. Several lots of cheese were canned There have been improvements along all lines of farm work. This is no leas true of the dairy work on the farm Think of the work it used to take when milk was strained away in gallon crock or pans with from half a gallon to three quarts in each crock, then estimate the number of crocks it would take to hold the milk of six tn 10 cows. These crocks of milk must all be set away to cool and for the. cream to rise, and then the work of skimming the cream, emptying the milk, washing and scalding the crocks and lids and, setting out on a table to tun. l am atratd a good many ol use would cease to be butter makers if we had to return to those former days As an improvement over this method milk wr-'a put in tall cans holding from three to five gallons each, i nese were keep in cool water. This was quite a saving of labor, as there were fewer ves sels to care for. I consider the separator is as much of a saving in labor over the cans as 'the caaa-were over the crocks, and in addi tioa gets more cream trom tne same amount oi nunc, i nave never maae l 1(un( in-nUH thn milt , . nuiiuu. ..w .j n ny testa to nnd out trie actual gam they turned ont weU. inoculating lor tne separator over wamming, tor l th ilk ith ure cuitare8 jn other lots - 1 L al I going uck uj me , th nurnoBO of controlling the flavor, and proved successful Good results will only be attained for I have not felt like going back to the ckimmicg process even for the sake of a test. But from a test make in Decem ber I find that by using the separator eilher way by dairying who aro compe tent to make first-class cheese, as tu 12 gallons of milk gives three gallons of cream, for which I churned 7) pounds of butter, or 9 2-3 ounces of butler for a gallon of milk. By letting 12 gallons of milk set 36 hours, then skimming close ly, I got less than two gallons of cream which churned four pounds and two ounces of batter, or 5 1-6 ounces to the gallon of milk. I ran the milk through Che separator after it had been skimmed and from this cream I churned two pouadt and six ounces of batter. I lost by skimming on 12 gallons of milk, counting batter at 26 cents a pound, or cream at,50 cents a gallon, jast about 60 cents or 5 cents on each gallon of milk. In Mrs. Gilchrist's paper, read at the Institute Jast year, she says that from her herd of 20 Jerseys they sold $100 worth of cream for four months, which was equal to $5 a cow. We sold $60 worth from eight cows six Jerseys and two Shorthorns which is equal to $7.55 to the cow per month, and according to theee figures they received jast two- thirds as much per cow as we did. I have a Bomber of testimonials and they all secure from one-fourth to one half more cream by using the separator. I consider that the separator is of great er profit in the summer than in winter, caring in cans will not correct any error made in preparing the curd. ThoHghts of My Western Home. Road working, the order of the day. F. F Fisher, C. A. and John Friend have gone to Glendale with their teams, where they have a contract, hauling . R. wood. The Rider Bros, have a fine lot of lumber on hand at present. Times are very quiet, no stock buyers, onsequently the usual spring income from the sale of stock is lacking. J. G Day has his mill in apple pie or der for the manufacture of boxes and has commenced the delivering of them at Roseburg and other points. 'he schools are progressing fine under the management of Prof it. A. Gile- and under the management of Prof Victor Boyd at the upper Olalla di-trict J. H. Boudever and W. R. Wells of this place have recently taken out a pa tent for the hangers of gates ond doors that take the place of springs and they have a number of gates hung by their patent and they work to pt-rfection. Un less they sell the patent soon they will commence the manufacture of the hang ers in the near future. Col. W. H. Taylor, the peoples friend, made a flying trip to points in California a short time since, where be was called on business. As minim; seems to be the great topic of Southern Oregon, we of the Olalla district can truthfully state that we hive placer ground along the Olalla Creek that with modern appliances for the handling of the gravel, can be made pay well. We also have quartz that un doubtedly carries gold and other metals. besides we have limestone of excellent quality. The only reason that pros pects have not been long since develop ed is for the lack of capital and someone who understands the business of mining on the improved modes of working both quartz and placer.

Re Ister A WIFE'S CONFESSION. Of course everv one knew when thev were engaged and every one pretended to be surprised when they heard it was suddenly broken off. It was first said she had broken it off, then that his heart bad changed, but nnallr she con fesscd that she had been o Irritable, so depressed and blue that she bad fairly driven mm away, Her good looks were vanishing. She was getting thin, pale, anu nollow-cncek ed. with dark circlet around her eyes. Suddenly all society was pleased again to hear or the engage ment being' renew, ed, and it was not long before a beau tiful and radiant bride was taken to the altar. She had regained her good looks, her former happy disposition and strong nerve all through a secret a friend gave her. A few bottles of Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription is what made two more lives happy and a radiant bride more beautiful than she bad ever appeared belore. Uacucu up Dy overa tbtra or a century of remarkable and uniform cures, a record such as no other remedy for the diseases and weaknesses peculiar to women ever attained, the proprietors and makers of Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription now feel tuny warrantee! in onering to pay t.soo in legal money of the United States, for any case ot iucorrnea, reraaie weakness, Prolapsus or .roiling ot woruD which the; cannot cure. All they ask is a fair anl reasonable trial of their means of cure. Mrs. O. O. Scripture, of Prescott, Arlx., L. Box 536, writes : " For nearly two yeara I was a great sufferer with ulceration and enlargement of womb, also suffered severely with dyspepsia and was run down a perfect wreck. 1 doctored for several years; got no better, until about seven months iigo I began taking Dr.Pierce'a Favorite Prescription and ' Pleasant Pellets.' I can stand on my feet and work hard all day. I feel that life is now worth living, and shall ever feel grateful to you and shall always recommend your medi cines to all who are suffering- la any way."
