Gilt-edge butter cannot be pro
duced unless the udder and teats
of the cow and the hands of the
milker are washed before milking
the cow. The milk must then be
removed from the stable as quickly
as possible, as it will absorb odors
as soon as it becomes cool.
"Weight alone is not the only
mode of regulating the price.
Quality is becoming the prime fac
tor in profit, amd farmers will soon
learn that it Js more profitable to
grow only first class produce than
to raise large amounts of th;t
which is inferior and slow of sale.
The value of farm implements
and machinery in the United
States in 1SSG was $400,520,035,
employed on 4,008,907 farms, val
ued at the enormous sum of 10,
197,090,776. The value of all tho
farm productions in 1S79, sold,
consumed and on hand, was 2,
212,540'927. The best churning temperatures
are between 57 and 60 degrees in
winter. All who churn should use
a thermometer, as no guess work
will answer. A thermometer is
an indispensable article in the
dsiry nt all times.
While it does not pay as a rule,
to be at tho expense of coekina:
food for stock, says the National
Stockman , it does pay to cook
food for young pig.-. Potatoes
can be used to adAantage, and a
good, warm mess will do more to
make tho pigs grow than anything
else.
A Frenchman states that the
American breeders are changing
the character of the Norman
Percheron horse by seeking to in
crease its size and by paying no
attention to other qualities. He
is reported as saying that the orig
inal "Perch" horse weighed only
1,300 or 1,400 pounds.
Somebody estimates the number
of goats in the world at 50,000,000.
I.f properly managed goats pay a
handsome profit, as they subsist
on scanty herbage, and are seldom
afflicted with diseases. In Ger
many and England they aro used
in the dairy, the flesh is highly es
teemed, while the skins command
a ready sale at all times.
A perfect strainer, says w
American Dairyman, is nadi- of
three thicknesses of fine bolting
cloth in a tin frame, like the hoops
of a hair sieve. It should be so
constructed "that the three choths
can be taken off and cleansed sep
arately. Jb me dust that will pass
through one thickness of ckth
or wire gauze will be arrested
when two or three are laid to
gether, and not a hair will go
through.
Alfred Rose, of Penn Yan, N.
ir., claims to have raised at the
rate of 1,000 bushels of potatoes
to the acre by his system of
trench-planting, in which he drops
his seed potatoes cut in two eyes,
on tho bottom of a furrow eight
inches deep. The seed is covered
at the first about two inches, but
when the plants aro nicely started
the dirt is drawn to them by de
grees during their growth till at
last the tiench is entirely filled.
The question frequently comes
up, Wrhat kind of sheep will pay
the best? Thisdepends upon the
location and the purpose for which
they are grown. If a fanner
wishes to raise sheep in large
flocks, principally for the wool, he
will select those that have merino
blood; but if situated near a good
market for lambs, and where he
can keep only a small number, he
will probably find the heavier
mutton breeds more profitable.
Tho farm is not a completo in
stitution where the woman takes
no interest in the poultry, the ani
mals, the dairy, or anything else
outdoors. We will not not be under
stood as advising that woman slave
in the dairy or in the garden or in
the field, but where families are
poor and tho woman cannot
freacb, or practice medicine or
aw, we would advise the making
of gilt edge butter that is as prof-
l itable as preaching, or teaching, or
pruuiiQiiig law or muuiuiae. tv j-

OREGON, SATURDAY,
A Trap.
A trap has been set by the
"goldbugs," to catch the friends
of silver, that looks fair and favor
able on its face, but it is full-of
danger. It is a scheme to deposit
silver bullion as security for na
tional bank notes. The reasons
why it will not do to allow the na
tional banks to deposit silver bull
ion as a security for their notes
are many. We will state only
twe: First, the banks would in
sist and the law would be passea
to accommodate them that they
should deposit the bullion at the
market rate for the same in Lon
don, and not at its value in 4124
grain silver dollars. This would have
the effect of degrading sil ver dollars
in the eyes of all the woild, and
increase the clamor against them
at home. This, again, would en
able tho "goldbugs" to got a bill
passed to stop the coinage of sil
ver, and this is the object for which
the silver bullion trap is set.
Thus would a great and irrepara
ble injury bo done to the cause
of bi tnetallism. By this trick the
gold standard would at once bo
fully established and the wheels
of the nation's progress bo set
back for many years. Both gold
and silver as bullion, are a com
modity coined, they are money
and this distinction is of vital im
portance in considering the money
question. As a commodity they
may be of unequal value, but as
money they are equal.
HEADACHE AST) DYSPEPSIA.
No. 512 West 57th St., N. Y.,)
June 29, 1885. f
I have been a martyr to bilious
headache and dyspepsia. Any indis
cretion in diet, over-fatigue, or cold,
brings on a lit of indigestion, to be
followed by a headache lasting two
or three days at a time. I think I
must have tried over twenty differ
ent remedies which were recom
mended as certain cures by loving
friends, but it was no use. Like the
Irishman, I got no better very fast.
At last I thought I would take a sim
ple course of purgation with Brand
retu's Pills. For the first week I
took two Pills ever' night, then one
Pill for thirty nights; in that time I
gained three pounds in weight, and
never have had ai. -jclie or a pain
since. "William E. Rockwell.
