Ih'cccling Heifers Too Y<umx. An eminent Jersey breeder says that one mistake many farmers make is in breed in;; Jersey heifers too young. A better way is to lot them get their growth, at least three years. Keep them In a separate lot if neces sary after they are eighteen months old. If permitted to bring calves be fore they have their growth they make small cows and yield less milk The calves also are smaller as a rule. It is not always best to be iu too big a hurry to get ahead in the world. A space of six or nine months Is not tie long to wait, and it is infinitely bet ter for the cow. It may be said, how ever, that even great minds differ on this point. Curing Sheep Skins.

Then fold the skin up as tight as) you tan, and put it iu a dryVlaco. In two or throe days, or as soon as It is dry, take it down and open and scrape tho flesh side with a blunt knife un til it is clean and supple. This com pletes the process, and makes an ex cellent saddle cover. Other skins which it is desired to euro with the hair on may bo treated in the same manner. If it is desired to use the skin for a rug, if. should bo well washed in soap suds, rinsed iu run ning water, and let get partly dry, then rubbed together until it is soft and dry.?The Commoner, 4 iv v The Hardy Calloway. A breed quite popular in tho older part of the country..js tho Galloway. Its long, thick, curly hair affords un usual projection against the weather conditions, and also adds to tho valuo of tho hide. Galloway rugs, robes and overcoats resemble those of tho buffalo and sell at high prices. Tho breed doeff not rank high as a milk producer, being distinctively a beef maker, although now and then a cow Is found which gives twenty quarts or so of milk per day, but only in exceptional cases. Tho quality of the beef Is famous In tho English market and the cattle are. ?ood and uniform feeders. Some American stockmen have claimed, hWcver, that the Galloways gain less tpr tho amount of feed than some other breeds, and of late years their atten tion has been given to selection with a view to securing a wider backed, blockier ty^e, whftk should fatten more easily without lul^s of hardiness and ability to resist cold, so charac | teristin of the breed. ? jvinericau Cul tivator. Teeth of Horses. In a discussion on this subject a horseman of much experience says: Decaying teeth are not uncommon In horses. This condition is usually indicated by a fetid discharge from the nostril or a fetid breath, in some cases difficulty is experienced iu lo cating tho diseased tooth, but when the disease has advanced to that stage In which it can bo located, it must bo extracted. Wolf teeth (those small, supernu merary t"fth. which appear in trout of the llrst molars in the upper rows) are generally supposed to have an In jurious effect upon the eyes. This is a mistaken idea'. They seldom do harm unless they are white and in such a position that they Interfere with mastication; but being super numerary and having no function they should be extracted. n' n some what common habit of knocking the crowns <>ff should no. bo followed. They should be '' awn with a pair of forceps. Wo repeat, that sufficient attention is not given to horses' teeth, and that a dollar spent for having them dressed in usually a good investment, while a bungling job does more harm than good. Farm Cheese Making. The nepartment of Agriculture Fives the following plain directions for making cheese 011 the farm: L'se milk three or four hours old, that has been held at about seventy degrees and which has not yot com menced to sour. Heat to about eigh tf-glx degrees, add commercial reu not at tin* i aii? of three ounces to ?lght\-tlvo cubic o< ntimetors to 10()t) pounds of milk Allow to coagulato for about thirty or for'y minutos, break th?> curd with a t;jj.j:i or ro?? cornorod stick until t In* part l<l<M i\ro tho hl/.o of t ho ?>tii! of tho small lin ger; heat slowly t>> about 100 do gives, stirring almost constantly In tho meantime ami allow to stuml at. 1 no degrees until tho eurd become* vory ti rm. A few expertmoats along this lln?* i 11 show how tirni tho curd iioodH to ho, but roughly it may ho stated that it will require about two and one-halt hours from tho timo tho curd is broken. Drain off tho ?hey, stir tho curd for fifteen or twenty minutes, allow ing to cool slowly. Salt at tho rato of two and one-halt pounds salt to loou pounds ot milk, put in a mold, square or round, as desired, and ap ply considerable pressure. Tho amount of p.ossure required is rather indefinite, but should not bo b .s.s than 1 mi pounds to each clmese Tho uton siIs required an* a thermometer, tin ves.?t?| for he.itui, and a moaMiro for measuring the ft'nnM ovtracl. Tlu.su t an bo pui? ?* 1 from any supply In his". After i'Iii'i'.m' conn s ?;;? of t*.:o press ii should bo I'u.-.-l in a cool place la tho usual wa> :n:tn> timos? describoJ, l'.ogin Am w.

Olio man ma> b. dtuatod so tiiat ho ran buy a iVw good rows and a Ihorou&hbred bull to bond tilv* dairy. That man will sunt out with a littl > advantage ovor tho one who is handicapped by lark of guilds. 11 will not bo long before ho will begin to so.' rosults thai will amaze hint. If only takos a little whllo to put so much now lift? into a honl of cows that tho ontlro farm economy fools tho inspiration and sots out on tho road for hot tor things. lint if a man has not tho ready Tnohry T??~put into choice o.iws th? thing to do is to bogin with what, ho has. It will not cost much to got a good bull calf somewhere among tho neighbors. 1 have known cases whom it was possible to trade a good scrub calf for a fullblood with a neighbor who had no use for tho calf except to make veal of lilni. That Is a good way to begin. Or it may be wo can got a heifer calf or two that way. If not, it is a matter of only a few dollars to buy one, if it cannot bo had by trading. That is a go<Vl start. Then graft the new stock on tho old and son how marvelous wl!l !jp tho result in a few years. It almost always '.urns out that when a man has been to tli2 trouble of getting <hls start, he will liavo so much ambition to make a success of It that ho will take the best care ho can of the new calf or the cows ho has bought. That means that a great deal in the success of tho venture. If I were asked to tell in one word what was the real secret of success among tho dairymen I know, I be lieve that word would bo care. Everything depends on that. You may tako tho best calf you can buy or the choicest cow and glvo them poor care and tho outcome will bo nothing worth while. Tho man who Is not willing to bestow caro on his stock need not look for any great de gree of success. He will not have it, if ho does, for ho will not be worthy of It. No success ever comes to tho man who will not work and work hard for It.?10. L. Vincent, in the Indiana Farmer. Farm Notes. The favor of butter largely do pends on the food the cows eat. Regularity in feeding and milking makes cows give moro milk. The butter will not come as quickly when the churn is almost full of cream. The newly hatched chicks do not need anything to eat until forty-eight hours old. Rapid churning will not got as much butter out of c/eam as slow churning will. It is a useless waste of time and money to haviM?nore poultry than can be taken care of well. Young chickens on pasture need feed three lime a day until a month old, then twice a day. It is safe to greaso the head of every chicken even if the mother and chicks are free from lice. That is a good way to keep them so. The main difference between tim othy and clover haying lies in th?> fact that there is less chance for the loss of leaves with the timothy. The time to cut alfalfa i.? just as it is beginning to bloom. After the be ginning of the flowering period, the hay rapidly deteriorates in nutritive value. For somf! reason ducks are not very popular as a fowl to raise, al though they are froe from disease, are easily bred and easily raised, it they receive good attention. Of course even timothy should ho housetl or stacked in a bright condi tion if it is to bp marketed, but raiu and sunburn do not damage it nearly so seriously as they do clovor. I)o not pick out for a breeder a lazy, sleepy looking sow that keeps fat easily, but select a hustler with a strong constitution and good grax? ins qualities and that is on ttmo at avcry meal. v ?
