Cleanliness in nil dairy operations is of first importance. Milk with dry hands. Keep tho atmosphere in which the milk must stand free from bad odors. Preservo the desirable flavors in the cream. If the milk is wanted sweet, lower tho temperature as soon as the milk is drawn from tho cow to just above freezing if possiblo. Neglect of proper caro of milk by patrons is the cause of much trouble at the fao tory and results in a liko reduction in net profits. It pays to bo honest.— American Agriculturist. % RETAINING THE DUTTER FLAVOR. Concerning cold storage of butter, wo will say that there is only method that will keep butter so as to presorvo its first rosy flavor, and that is by freezing it. Tho old method of cold storage by holding it at a temperature of thirty eight to forty degrees would keep tho butter from getting rancid, but it would soon loso its lino flavor and show a sort of dead, cold storago taste. If refrigerators nro constructed on a system whereby a temperature of six teen to twenty degrees enn bo con stantly maintained, butter can bo held in a sweet, rosy condition six months. Rooeut experiments havo indicated that it is better togo down even as low as eight degrees above zero. Tho but ter does not loso its flavor quickly when brought into consumption. Tho sixty-pound package, cither in tubs or firkius, is probably tho best form of pncltngo for tliis work.—Hoard's Dairyman. THE CULTURE OF FLAX. Flax requires a rich, light loam soil, aud, preferably, a grass sod turned un der. Tho land should bo moist, but not wet, and a low-lyiug meadow ou a river bottom is especially favorablo to it. It is grown cither for tho seed or for tho fibre, nnd tho method of cultivation differs as tho pnrposo for which tho crop is grown. For seed, tho seed sown is not moro than two to threo pecks per acre, as thin sowing encourages tho growth of sido branches, on which the fruit, called seed boils, nre produced moro than on tho main stem. It is mostly grown for seed 011 this continent, ns the climato is too dry and warm for tho best kind of fibre. The only locality where tho best libro might bo grown is in tho Southern mountain region, where the summers are cool aud tho rainfall is twice as much as elsewhere ou tho continent. The Rood is sown early in May, about tho time of oat seeding. Tho product of seed is from ten to fifteen bushels an aero, and nt tho present prices pre vailing, it is the most profitable of all gruin crops. As the preparation of tho fibre requires much hand labor, it is not a paying crop, and it is hardly possible that at pres ent wo can compete with tho Russians and Bohemians in growing and pre paring it. Tho culturo is rapidly dy ing out in Ireland ou account of tho competition of tho Eastern European Nations, where labor is so cheap.— New York Times. A CHEAP PLANT HOUSE. 1 should lilco to tell of a cheap little house we built lust full, writes Mrs. G. D. The winter was unusually se vere, yet all my flowers except an ai tillcry plant wero saved, even tlio ten der begonias. As it may bo of uso to some othor beginner I will give the plan of this houso. Strong posts wero driven into tho ground at intervals of six feet. Upon each siilo of tho posts inch planks wero nailed. Tho spaeo between was filledwitlisawdustramincd down close. The boards on tho inside wero planed so as to make a smooth ceiling, but the outer ones wero not dressed. Ovor tho outside a layer cf asbestoj is tacked, and over this is a heavy weather boarding. The roof has a doublo ceiling, as well us a thick shingling. A coating of sawdust about thrco inches thick is placed be tween tho shingles and tho first coil ing; and between tho two ceilings overhead is a layer of asbestos. The dimensions of this little houso are only Cxi 2 feet, yet it gives room for as many plants as I care to keep. Height of tho front is nearly eight feet, height at back is six. It lronts south, ond is lighted* by sliding win dows, which come within three feet of tho ground, below them being ceiled and weather-boarded like tlio other walls. At tho east end is a glass door. I havo heavy duck curtains outside tho gla.-s. These are dropped down during the worst weather, and left down every night iu the middle of winter. The (lowers are placed ou a set of steps eight inches apart. Tho lower ours are twelve inches wide, tho two upper six iaches. Tlio most ten der plants are put ou top. I open tho windows ou every warm day in winter to make tho plants hardy. Tho only heating apparatus is a coal oil stove. This is kept burning whenever I find it necessary, and it gives warmth enough foru South Ten nessee wiuter. I don't know whother such a structure and such heating ap pliances would bo safe further north or not.—Detroit Free Press. r.OSES FOII TUB GAP.DEN. Thousands of people who lovo roses, and have plenty of room in their gardens or dooryards for a bed of roses of larger or smaller dimensions, aro afraid to attempt to grow them, because tl.ey imagine it requires too luueh skill. A great deal of this may be laid at tho door of our older-school gardeners and ilorists, who, from nar row-mindedness more thau anything else, have tried to envelop everything pertaining to floriculture in mystery, and to spread the belief that to jjrow even tho commonest (lowers required their skill and superintendence. Cer> tainly no luoro mistaken idea regard ing tho culture of the roses could pos sibly exist. The main J actor required is good plain common sense, which, if rightly applied, cannot fail to make it very easy to grow successfully the choicest kinds of rcsee. What to Avoid.—Never attempt to grow roses under the shade of a tree, or even where tho roots of near-by trees can reach the rose bed, and re member that the roots of established trees will travel far beyond the spread of thoir branches in search of new and richly manured soil, and when once they reaoh it thoy will soon monopo lize tho whole, leaving the proper oc cupants a vory scant proportion of food to exist upon. No rose can thrive under such conditions. Never chooso a place to plant roses that is very wot or undrnined, as extreme moisture will rot tho roots, and tbo poor roso will soon die of rapid con sumption. Neither should a gravel or sand heap be selected, for tho simple reason that such j>osition3 are so porous that all tho fertilizing givon will bo washed away by every rain that falls upon it. Theso aro tho prin cipal extremes to avoid in selecting a place for planting roses. Preparation of tho Roso Bed.—Dig up tho soil to the dopth of eighteen to twenty inches, thoroughly incorporat ing a liberal proportion of well de composed manure, and if tho natural soil is of a heavy clayey naturo the addition of three or four inches of sand will help it materially ; on tho contrary, if the soil is of alight, sandy or gravelly naturo tho addition of a liberal proportion of n heavier or clay soil will bo very beneficial. Where tho bed has to bo entirely prepared with new earth I would adviso select ing a good, fresh, loamy soil—the Eur fneo fivo or six inches deep from an old pasture is tho best. First removo tho natural toil altogether, to tho depth Riven above, replacing it with tho new eoil, adding ono load of manure to every five or six of soil, thoroughly mixing tho whole, and when the bod is filled up a little higher than tho origiual soil, to allow for settling, it is ready for tho roso plants. Planting and C.iro of Ro3os.—Placo tho plants about eighteen inches apart each way, and should dry weather set in givo them a liberal soaking of water onco a week as long as dry weater con tinues. Do not givo water in homeo pathic doses, for roses are liko robins, they like tho best there is aud plenty of it. It will also very greatly help them to produco continuous blooui if they arc heavily mulched with short manure or chopped straw ; even a coat of coarse, dry grass is better than nothing. In tho following spring, after all frost is past, go over them, shorten back auy long shoots and cut out auy dead tips that may appear; keep all wee Js cleared out at all times as soon as they show themselves, and renew tho mulching in the spring rt pruned. When tho plants hn/o started into new growth go carefully over them, aud as soon ns tho first green worui or caterpillar is seen ou tho loaves, syringe tho loaves both under aud abovo with water, thon dust them with hellebore powder—a largo pepper box or flour dredger is a good thing for this purpose. Repeat this threo or four times before tho tlowors open, nnd these posts will nil disap pear, and you will be rewarded with such a crop of beautiful llowers that you will wonder why you had nover tried roso growing before. You will find it both a pleasuro and a profit— pleasure IU t'ua beauty and grace it will add to your home, and profit in giving you employment aud recrea tion in tho open air, thereby often saving doctor's bills and discontontod minds. —New England Homestead. I'AHM AND GAUDEN NOTES. Always weigh your butter at home. Don't keep the soil too wet, as it in clines them to decay at tho base. Don't breed for bones, but strive to build up a dairy of butter producers. Do not leave an orchard to itself after planting. Cultivate it without ceasiug. It is necessary that you bo ablo ta control tho tomporaturo while ripen ing cream. Fure water is absolutely necessary, and pastures must bo kept freo of nox ious weeds. Lantanas, perennial phloxes and chrysauthemu:us will grow rapidly from cuttings put out now. Two largely common crops that should be considerably reduced—liee on hens and weeds in tho garden. Do the milking in a quiet placo and mako no noise doing the work. If in a stable, havo it freo from odors. It is just as important that an or shaid receive good tillago to make healthy, vigorous growth as it is to corn or potatoes. One of tho chief causes of disease among sheep is overcrowding. Thoy will never do well if thoy are kept in crowded quarters. It ig not yet too late to increase your stock of roses if cuttings aro put out whero not exposed to tho wind and sun. If the buds aro koptpiuclied off they will make nice little bushes for next winter's blooming. Don't let tho sunshine beguile you into putting out your hothouso plants too early. Even if below tho lino of late frosts there is danger from chill ing dews and tho drying winds of March, which havo lingered with us this year until lute iu April. How r.wcotit is to eat of tho fruit ol the tree "I plauted with my own hands." What a feature of tho land scape a tree becomes. What a feeling akin to friendship springs up iu man's breast when he ga/.es at tho symbol of rugged strength that has braved a thousand fetorms. It seems as if auy farmer should be willing to give the attention to his trees that he does to regular farm crop*. Yet it is simply beoauso oreh urdnuire entirely neglected both as re gards* tillage and fertilization, as well as uiJplying fungicides and insecti cides, that thoy often prove so unsat isfactory aud uurcmuuerative.

THE SECRET OF FRENCH COOKING. The gentle heat is said to bo the se cret of the superior delicacy and rich ness of French cooking. With a gen tle heat and tight covers wo may have just tho amount 'of juice wo like in our vegetables. A glance will decide this, or perhaps tho ear, if tho hand at the same timo rests on the cover. Many kinds of meat may bo cooked in this way to tho best advantage. A rump steak, tbrco or four inches thick, kept closely covered and cooked in its own juices alone, will bo far moro tender than when put into the oven; and this without basting and without fat, the latter having been trimmed off closely.—St. Louis Star- Sayings. now TO WASH FLANNELS.

If colored add white vinegar to the last water, to set tho color. After wringing shako well and draw into shapo; dry quickly, pulling them into shape as they dry. Tho wristlets of vests and anklets of tights should bo stretched as narrow as possible, to restore them to their natural closo lit; nnd tho bag at tho knees and bulge at tho elbows can be pulled out.

For hard soap, use 55 pouuds of clean tal low, one pound of potash, ouo ouueo of borax, one ounce of powdered am monia ; perfumo with what you please. First put tho potash in a stouo crock and pour thrco pints of rain water on it apd let stand till it gets cold. Dis solve tlio borax in a teacupful of rain water and pour in crook. Warm tho tallow qulto warm and pour in tho crock of potash water, stirring it all tho timo you aro ponriug it in; this requires au extra hand. Dissolve the ammonia in a cup of rain water and add to tho mixture boforo it cools. Continuo tho stirring until it is as thick as pancako batter.

In well-formed horses the tail should be strong at the root, rising high from the croup, the direotion of which it follows. When this is horizontal the tail is gracefully carried, especially when the horse is moving. With powerful, good-shaped horses it is often carried upward, or even curved over tho back, especially when the horse is lively. The health and strength of the animal are, aocording to popular notions, indicated by the resistance the tail offers to manual in terference and by tho way in which it is oarriod. To some extent also it af fords an indication of tho horse's dis position. A fidgety horso usually has the tail, like the ears, always in motion ; when about to kick, the tail is drawn down ward between the legs; when the ani mal is fatigued or exhausted then it is drooping aud frequently tremulous; and with 6ome horses, when gallop ing, it is swung about in a circular manner or lashed from side to side. There can scarcely bo any doubt also that, like tho tail of birds, it assists in the horse's movements, as when the animal is galloping in a small circle, or rapidly turning round a coiner, it is curved to tho inner side. With well-bred liorsos tho hair of the tail is comparatively fino aud straight, and often grows to such a length that it roaches the ground; coarse-brod horses may also have tho hair long, but then it is usually very thick and strong, and more or less frizzly, thoug'i soft curly hair may occasionally bo notisod in tho tail of thoroughbred horses. In some horses there is a tendency to shedding of tho tail hair (this, like that of tho mane, tail, forelock, fetlocks, aud some oth er parts, is permanent, aud not shed at certain seasons, as in other regions of tho body) ; the horso is then said to bo "rat-tailed," and there is a popular saying to the effect that such a horse is never a bad one. In other instances the tail hair falls off except at the end of tlie dock, where it forms a tuft, aud tho horso is then "cow tailed" or "mule-tailed." —Nineteenth Century.

I had tho best physicians to attend mo and on tho 15th day of January, 1804, I was allowed to get up. I was enu.eiated, weak aud had uo appetite. I eould only drag along for a short distance and would bo compelled to sit down and rest. This continued for some time and I began to give up hope of ever getting well.

While splitting wood noar his boat house at the foot of Loughborough avenue, yesterday alternoon, "Drift wood Pete" made a lucky strike of the ax, which put him in possession of nearly S4OO in gold. Ho was pound ing away at the hollow log, when the ax cut througb and struck some metallic substance, which proved to ho an iron pot tight sealed. With eager haste he broke tho top, and to. his delight gold coin came rolling out. Upon counting tho coins they amounted to 3-100. The pot had been incased in the log apparently for a great number of years, and it is thought to have been hidden in tho tree during the war. Where the tree camo from will probably never be known. It had been felled somewhere up tho river, and drifted along with the current to yield its treasuro to "Driftwood Peto." "Driftwood Pete" has earned a livelihood all his lifo by catehiug drifting wood and other floating articles on the Mississippi ltiver during the summer months. It was seven months ago that ho caught tho log which contained tho pot of gohl, and it has lain near his cabin ever since, until yesterday, when ho started to split it up for Urewood.— | St. Louis Globe-Democrat.

"CAVB SPRING, GA., May 21,1894. "Mybaby was a living skeleton. The doctors said he was dying of Maras mus, Indigestion, etc. The various foods I tried seemed to keep'hini alive, but did not strengthenor fatten him. At thirteen months old he weighed exactly what he did at birth—seven pounds. I began using "SCOTT'S EMULSlON,"some times putting a few drops in his bottle, then again feeding it with a spoon; then again by the absorption method of rubbing it into his body. The effect was mar velous. Baby began to stouten and fatten, and became a beautiful dimpled boy, A wonder to all. SCOTT'S EMUUUON supplied the one thing needful. "MM. KEKNOW WILLIAM." Scott's Emulsion is especially useful for sickly, delicate children when their other fooJ fails to nourish them. It supplies in a concentrated, easily digestible form, just the nourishment they need to build them up and give them health and strength. It is Cod-liver Oil made palatable and easy to assimilate, combined with the Hypophosphites, both of which are most remarkable nutrients.
