First, tho exact amount of money the plant will cost; second, the adaptability of the locution chosen for tho successful operation of the creamery, and last, but not least, the amount of patronage that cun be depended upon. More creameries fail from lack of milk supply than from any other cause. Too many embark in the business with nothing more than prospects ahead of them, which, they scon find out, never liuiteriuliEO. Wo would therefore sug gest that the man with limited means contemplating starting a creamery should mako a thorough canvass of the district in which ho intends locating, to visit all tho farmers to find out how many cows meh is keeping or is willing to keep, fully < xplnining to them the basis and terms on which he will handle their milk and also explaining to them tho groat variation in the amount of fat produced in the milk by differ« nt cows and dairies, so they will not expect to be all paid alike. Wo have known some farmers t > withdraw their patronage from a creamery when they found their milk was not bringing ns much as their neighbor’s, believing they were living cheated, when the fact of tho case was their milk was < f a lower grade and therefore not entitled to the same price. All these thugs must be ixphiimd and duly considered and a thorough under standing come to between the creamery projector and the farmer.

We have had the best snccesa thia year with calves that wa 1 emoved from the cows us soon as they were dropped. They learned to drink at cnee. The cows did not mourn for them us they (the cows) were gently un<l kindly treated. After the third day give the calf skimmed milk warm with flaxseed jelly and the water in which some wheat bran and middlings have been boiled. After they uro u few weeks old the grain need not be strained ont. This grain balances the cream which is takeu out. Then feed regulurly. It does not ' pay to feed even milk to calves in a haphazard way. This bus been proved to be the most profitable way to raise calves.
