the accidental discovery and foiling

plans were made to carry out the
deed at Easter The nlotters includ
ed resorve officers and other officials
! and civilians whose loyalty hitherto
had been undoubted. A large num
ber of conspirators, the correspond
ent says, was made necessary by the
great precautions taken nowadays to
protect Imperial personages.
The plan was, the correspondent
says, to approach Tsarskoo Selo in
groups and then execute a sudden
i and daring attack on the palace. Tho
first group, consisting of thirty-four
men, arrived on tlio Russian Good
Friday, when, from some means un
known. suspicions against them were
I aroused and the whole thirty-four
were arrested at Tsarskoo Selo. Doc

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.

Then fold the skin up as tight as) you

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

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

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

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)

cornorod stick until t In* part l<l<M i\ro

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*

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

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

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 ?
