Walt Spots la flatter. '
A correspondent writes us that h
had Jersey heifer the butter of which
Was Injured by white spots, supposej
to bo due to minute clots of curd, says
The Bural New Yorker. The coudltion
waa remedied by giving every night
one-half tablesioonful of cooking soda.
Wo have submitted this to I'rofcsaor
Lew of tbe New York Slate Veterinary
College, who says If tbe white spots
are really minute clota of curd tbe ex-
! planatloo can be made on a purely
! chemical basis. Tbe most common
cause of clotting Is the development of
add la the milk and the presence of
an excess of salts of lime. The lime
alts especially determine a firmness
and Insolubility In tbe coagulum. The
tiring of bicarbonate of soda in small
, from the stomach and thus to Improve
oigesxion, assimilation anu secretion.
Including the condition of tbe milk.
Tbe Increased secretion from the stom
ach Implies a greater flow of hydro- 1
chloric acid, but In the presence of soda I
this la soon resolved Into chloride of
sodium, or common salt, which Is no ,
longer acid. The surplus soda salt cir
culating In the blood and secreted with
tbe milk to a certain extent bars the '
early formation of acid In the milk aud I
tbe resultant souring. - Again, tbe soda I
baa atronger chemical alllultles than i
lime and tends to take to Itself tbe !
aclda that go to make up the salts of
lime and thus to diminish the amount
of lime present In the milk aud the
tendency to firm clotting. Even sup
posing the white spots should have
been due to the growth of a ferment
(bacterium), thla must be a germ that
finds Its proper home In a sour (acid)
medium, and the Increase of the alka
line soda, by hindering souring, would
for a time keep the medium In a con
dition In which such a germ fitted for
add media could not grow.
rived from the use of the separator:
First, you nu get the cream out of the
milk Immediately after milking, aud
thus yon will only huve to cure for tbe
cream; then the sklmmllk can be fed
In Ita sweet, warm state to the calves
and pigs; second, the milk becomes
cleansed from all particles of dirt when
separated; third, the tlnent butter la

Esreptlonal Cases.
We sometimes hesitate to remrt
without cominetit the sale of such
horses as the high stepping gelding
The Turk, which brought $7.hki at the
late Tlchenor sale, says The National
Stockman. The Turk Is a small lior-e.
only 15.1 hands, but of beautiful con
formation and a splendid actor. He is
an exceptional horse In every way.
The man who breeds small horses may
now and then get an animal of this
kind, but be has no assurance of this
r even of getting enough out of them
to pay for their raising. Small park
horses do sell for fancy prices now
and then, but for every little horse that
fetches a big price there are lO.fKK)
that owe their breeders money when
they go to market No breeder who
has to make a living from his business
can afford to take any such chances.
Better breed big ones. Good big horses
will average more money than little
ones of the same quality. I-ct the
ranchmen produce the little fellows -
they can do It chenpest and go In for
aise along with quality.
Orrru Alfalfa For Cows.
During the summer of lS'.M) the Han
ts Agricultural college fed ten bead of
cowe on green alfalfa for a period of
74 days. During this time they receiv
ed 77.145 pounds of alfalfa and 1.C23
pounds of corn and Katlir corn meal.
On account of other experimental work
It was Impossible to retain tbe same
field of alfalfa through the entire pe
riod, and consequently we could not
measure the area used; but. figuring
0D the basis of dry matter produced
and comparing It with the amount pro-
j duccd by an iverage yield of four tons
or wen cured nay per acre, we tlud
that It took 2.07 acres to keep ten cows
74 days. During this time these cows
yielded $85.9 worth of butter fat and
Sklmmllk. The grain cost $10.05. This
leaves $75.04 to be credited to the
green alfalfa, amounting to $1.05 per
ton, or $25.20 per acre. Green alfalfa
la relished by tbe cows, aud a field can
be kept In good condition for feeding
during tbe whole summer. Where pas
turage Is abundant It will doubtless
not pay to feed green alfalfa, but
where pasture land Is scarce or tbe
grass becomes short or dry green alfal
fa famishes an excellent feed and will
aot only keep up the flow of milk for
the time being, but will help materially
to maintain a large flow through a
longer period of lactation. Pasturing
alfalfa will sometimes cause cows to
bloat. We did not have a single case
of bloat from cutting alfalfa and feed-
tag It green.
Calf reefUs;.
1 see a great many of your readers
have trouble raising calves on separa
tor milk," says a correspondent of
Board's Dairyman. "I have used a
separator for three years and never
had any trouble, I will give my plans
at feeding them. If It will be a benefit
to others, yon may publish It I feed
the calf the first few days on the milk
of Its dam. This is set in pans or
crocks for 12 hours, and then the cream
la taken off, and the milk Is warmed to
80 degrees and given to the calf. When
the cnlf is 2 weeks old. it will eat bran
and a little coriuiicul. After this It Is
given separator milk until It Is 6

attached either by mortise and tenon
or bolts to the top of the standard,
leaving about one-third of the arm ex
tending belww. A short brace extends
from the standard to the short end of
the arm, aud a long brace reachea to
within about five feet of the upper end
of the arm. These braces are bolted
fust and have cleats nailed on them for
convenience In climbing. Five Inch
Iron pulleys are secured to the ends of
the arm through which runs the hoist
ing rope.
The supporting trame Is usually made
of (Miles, but would be better If made
of 2 by 4, 4 by 4 and 2 by 8 lumber.
This frame consists of a platform base
alHiut 14 feet square, four corner posts
(a) of r Inch poles or 4 by 4 scantling
and a top platform about 5 by 5 feet
square. Two long braces are attached
to each of the four sides from lower
to opposite upper corners. The center
planks of the upper platform are cut
out so as to lit around the standard,
forming the upier bearing and keeping
It In position. A suitable plank with a
socket for the pivot at tbe base of tbe
standard Is fitted to the lower platform
or buse. A pulley Is attached to tbe
corner of the base, as shown In the
drawing. A seven-eighths Inch ropei
00 to 100 feet long, Is placed In the
three pulleys. This stacker can be
easily moved short distances by hitch'
lug a team to one side of the base.
Usually It Is built In tbe stackyard,
stack being made close to one side or
on both sides, as desired.
To operate the Implement attach the
hay fork or sling hook and the single
tree as usual In handling hay by horse
power. If the ground pulley Is placed
In the right position, the rope will
swing the crane from the load of hay
to any desired position above the stack.
Hound stucks or tbe usual long bay
ricks of any desired length can be
made at will.

Notwithstanding the protests of the
oleo trust and Its friends lu congress,
tbe various formulas for making oleo
margarine bare been made public, and
they are at least Interesilior v ti
Philadelphia North American.
One of the processes for making the
kind of butter that Is sold In IV'iutiyl
vanla as a dairy product Is thus de
scribed In the patent otllce records:
"The process consists iu first forming
l soap emulsion of the fats or fatty
alls with caustic soda; then precipi
tate the lyes; then applying chlorluut
rd alkaline lye or chlorinated gas to
the soap emulsion."
That souuds like a recipe for mnklnp.
oft soap, but when the color Is added
the result Is gilt edge "creamery" but
ter for the Pennsylvania market.
Here are a few of the constituents of
tbe "advanced product of the farm:"
DUulphate of lime, borax, salicylic
cld. beuxolc scld, orris root, cotton
seed oil, bicarbonate of soda, gylcerln,
eapsyllc acid, alum, capKlc acid, sul
phate of soda, cows' udder, Bulphurlc
scld. pepsin, tallow, lard. salt, corn
Itarch. butyric ether, caustic potash,
castor oil, chalk, slippery elm bark,
caul, oil of sesame, oil of suufiower
teed, olive oil. turnip seed oil, broiua
Chloralum, chlorate of . potash, oil of

f manganese, stomach of pigs, sheep
or calf, nitrate of soda, mustard seed
Oil, ultrlc acid, dry blood albumen

It ilas Wever Failed
Cattla From Mexico.
From our Texas exchanges we learn
that there is a big movement of Mexi
can cattle, says Farm, Field and Fire
side. This wus to he expected ou pres
ent market prices. It seems that the
Sierre Maclre railroad has been called
on to supply 3U0 stock cars for cattle
to be loaded nt stations on their line.
"1 understand," said Ir. Bray, gov
ernment live stock Inspector, "that
very lurgc shipments will be made by
the Corralitos company, Mr. Urmston,
the Azarate Bros, and other cattle
raisers in t'asas Grandes county. The
cattle will be shipped to ranges for
grazing In Texas, Colorado and other
western states. Many of them will be
calves and yearlings."
It Is estimated 300 cars carry about
12,u)u or 15,000 head, varying accord
ing to the number of calves. Anyhow
this movement of cattle will be the
largest made from Mexico Into the
United States since about 1883 5, when
It was the fashion to buy up large
herds of cows In Mexico to stock the
western ranches.
0ktmllk as aa Insert Destroyer.
It may not be generally known thut
Iklmnillk or buttermilk readily mixes
with kerosene, forming an emulsion
Which destroys Insects without the
danger of Injury to animals or plants
on which they might lie that might re
sult from the use of the pure oil or of
oil and water. We first learned of this
from using this mixture for the scale
Insect, or mite, which causes scaly legs
on fowl. We found that one or two
dippings or washings with It would
cure the worst case of scaly leg and
leave the skin as smooth as when Urst
batched. We never had occasion to
try It for lousy animals, for we never
bad one, but we do not hesltutu to rec
ommend It and we have lately seen Its
ose advised for ticks on sheep, using a
rill of kerosene to oue gullon of milk.
Wo did not make our mixture so strong
Of kerosene as that, but perhaps the
larger tick may need a stronger appli
cation than an insect so small as to be
scarcely visible to the naked eye.
American Cultivator.
Brlslaa Hares.
Belgian hares huve been greatly Itn
proved by Judicious breeding and are
becoming very popular. Some even
believe that they are more profitable
than poultry, being cleaner and more
cheaply fed and withstanding confine
ment well. The meat is delicious, and
when they are 4 months old It will
bring a higher price than a chicken the
same age. Don't buy cheap stock,
There Is as much difference In breed
lug stock of Belgian hares as there Is an
Cows' Taste In Mule,
I am not an agriculturist, but for ten
fear I lived with an uncle who kept
tows. Wc had several changes of cows
tnd milkmaids during thut period. It
was noticed that certain milkmaids
could draw more milk than other.
Our most characteristic cow was Tri
este, so named on account of her sail
bearing, and It required the most
touching of border songs to prevail up
on her to give a decent supply of milk.
Tbe old woman who generally milked
her always wound up with "The Land
of the Leal" to get the creamy ending
of the milking process. A new bund
once tackled Trieste with sea songs,
with dire consequences. Another cow
was called the Evangelist on account
of her Intense hatred for psalm tunes
and Sunkey hymns. She, strange to
say, preferred rollicking tunes. Lon

In some sections of the west where
alfalfa could lie easily sgrown It bna
Dot become popular because, the farm
ers say. It w 111 not suceivil on account
of belug clinked out by weeds u of
falling to give a good sc- nd cutting,
with no third cutting nt .1
From a study of the failures iif grow
ing this crop it seems that the method
f growing is at fault, according to a
Writer In Farm and Fireside, who says:
As a general rule, the ground Is well
prepared in the spring, the seed sowed
at once and a good, promising stand
obtained, hut In tbe autumn what al
falfa there Is bides among the foxtail
and other weeds. Few or no plants
tpitear the following spring, and the
farmer after perhaps another trlul or
two gives up.
If this method were abandoned for
the following, there would probably be
more fields planted to this crop: Pre
pare the hind-five acres Is a conven
ient area a year or two previous to
sowing by growing well tilled corn
upon It. In the spring sow nn early
maturing crop, such as early planted
soy beans or oats. Harrow the ground
after this Is nlT each two weeks until
the autumn rains commence. Plowing
will not lie necessary unless the stub
ble In dense. This harrowing will Im
prove the soil mid kill several crops of
weeds. After the ground tins become
wet sow the alfalfa. If It does not be
come wet. postpone seeding until the
prlng.
The best , method of seeding is to
cross drill, the seed ls?lng mixed with
an eijual quantity of sand, bran or oth
er ubstnni-e. or the drill lielng set so
aa to sow only half the quantity at
each operation. In this way half the
seed Is sown scrims the other half. As
soon as the plants reach a height of
six Inches they should tie mowed. This,
If practiced two or three times, will
kill weeds and help the alfalfa. It
should be done, weeds or no weeds.
lon t cut alfalfa as you would clover
-after full bloom. Cut Iwfore the
maximum bloom and for the first
prlng cutting even earlier. This will
Insure heavier Inte cuttings. As final
cautions avoid loose, dry ground, let the
oil settle and become moist, avoid bite
cuttings and avoid pasturing until the
third yvav.
