Temperature For Churning.
i The temperature nt which cream
should bo churned varies with Its
character. The rango for most cream
Is between 55 and CO degrees. Rlpo or
Hour cream churns much more cnslly
than sweet cream because the particles
are less sticky. It will also churn nt a
higher temperature, which is more con
.vonlen. In rich cream the particles Ho closer
together, and this makes It more easy
to churn than thin cream. When nil
tbo conditions are right the average
cream ought to churn In from thirty to
forty-flvc minutes.
You can churn best with the churn
only ono-thlrd full. This is true es
pecially with tho concussion churn,
which Is tho best kind. Tho concus
sion churn gives from 10 to 12 per cent
more butter than the old dash churn,
Which leaves that amount In tho but
termilk. You will find churning more difficult
when the cream is thin or sweet or
cold or from cows advanced In tbo
milking period, or the churn may be
too full.
Hog Notes.
Tigs sometimes lose their talis bo
Cause of foul bedding. If the trouble
begins, clean out and disinfect the
sleeping place.
Tho boar seems a useless Individual
nt most times of the year, but he
Bbould not be neglected. Corn and
water do not make a good food ration
for him.
Use tho old brood sow Just ns long
as she docs well. A gilt Is always a
doubtful proposition.
A cheap house in which sows may
farrow is one built in the shape of a
triangle of any kind of lumber suitable.
A convenient form is a bouse 8 by 8 by
8 feet, with four inch opening at top of
the roof for ventilation.
Keep the Early Chicks.
Mark the earliest chicks and don't
nllow the lure of high prices to tempt
you into parting with a single one of
them. These early pullets are tho very
ones which make the profitable winter
layers when eggs aro sky high.
GOOD QUALITIES
OF THE GOWPEA,
Excellent For Silage When Used
In Combination With Corn,
Cowpeas are tender, succulent, vine
like plants and must be grown be
tween the periods of frost
An excellent bay is afforded by
cowpeas. If properly handled it is
paid to be equal to alfalfa in nutritive
.value. It Is not an cosy matter to
cure tho hay, tho vines being so large,
cure slowly, and with unfavorable
.weather hay is apt to be badly injured,
If not spoiled, before it is cured suffi
ciently to stack.
Professor Ten Eyck of the Kansas
State Agricultural college says the
difficulty of harvesting and curing
cowpca hay, Its tendency to become
ttvoody and tho lower yield per acre
make this crop for hay production
less valuablo than alfalfa when alfalfa
can bo successfully grown. Where
difficulty has been experienced in
growing alfalfa cowpeas fill a need by
producing hay and pasture of high
feeding value. As a soil fertilizer tho
crop is especially valuable when used
In rotation with other crops or plowed
under as green manure.
As a soiling crop cowpeas are very
satisfactory and furnish an abun
dance of succulent green feed, al
though perhaps less palatablo than al
falfa. Used alone the cowpea does not
lnalio an exceptionally good quality
of ensilage, due to tho large quantity
of water in the green vines, making a
water silage that keeps poorly and is
xtot well relished by stock.
When in combination with corn, In
the proportion of nbout one-fourth
cowpeas to three-fourths corn, it makes
an excellent silogo that beeps well and
is relished by all classes of stock. This
combination has greater feeding value
than corn silage, for the reason that
cowpeas, being relatively high in pro
tein, mako tho cowpea-corn sllago a
more nearly balanced ration.
Professor Call says It Is a common
practice in dairy sectloni to grow cow
peas and corn In separato fields and
mix them as tho silo is being filled. It
would seem a more desirable- practice
to grow tho corn and cowpeas to
gether. Farm Beef Supply.
In somo parts of Iowa farmers have
formed clubs for tho supply of meat,
each member agreeing to furnish year

tion to dress not less than 400 pounds,

HUMOR OF TIE DAY
Each In His Own Way.
"Say, look here, I don't like to kick,
but really I havo stood It Just as long
ns I can. Evory night somebody In
your house keeps tho pianola going or
clso starts the phonograph, and I find
ft impossible to get the sleep I need.
Understand, I like you and your fam
ily as neighbors all right, generally
speaking, and I'm sure you don't In
tend to make It disagreeable. It's Just
a case of not thinking of the rights and
tho comfort of others. That's tbo great
trouble with most of us. We forget,
when wo are enjoying ourselves, that
we may be making it mighty unpleas
ant for others."
"Tou'rc right, old man, and I don't
blame you a bit for complaining. By
the way, there is n little matter I have
wanted to speak to you about for some
time, but I've felt somo delicacy in ap
proaching the subject Why is It that
you let your roosters begin crowing
along about daylight? They make it
almost Impossible for. us to get tho
sleep wo need. And why do you mow
your lawn on Sunday mornings? Plcaso
understand that I don't deny you tho
right to spend your Sundays in any
way you see fit, as long as you don't
interfere with the rights and comforts
of others, but this thing of starting In
to rattle a lawn mower at 5 o'clock
every Sunday morning the one morn
ing In the week when tho majority of
people would like to sleep late doesn't
seem .to me to indicate that you havo
much regard for your neighbors. Now,
I'll tell you what I'll do I'll compro
mise with you."
"What's your proposition?"
"I'll see that our music is stopped
every night at 10 o'clock If you will
keep your roosters and the lawn mow
er quiet until 7 In the mornings."
"Oh, pshawl There's no use talking
to you. I had an idea you could listen
to reason, but I see I was mistaken.

Pofessor Garner has Just returned from tho African Jungles, bringing with
him a chimpanzee, which bo has named Susie. This was bis fourth trip to
Africa to watch and learn tho. habits of tho chimpanzee in its wild stato, and
on this occasion ho lived for seven years among gorillas and chimpanzees and
brings back somo marvelous tales concerning them. Ho declares that In his

hardly existed before these ladli
opened that of the Hotel de Ramboull
lot. Prior to this social event women
of tiptop quality ahd rich bourgeoises
received their company In their bed
rooms. There was nothing answering
to the English parlor or tho Italian
hall of conversation. Tho bed, as In
the sleeping room of Louis XIV., was
surrounded by a balustrade, outside of
which gentlemen who had dropped in
to visit remained standing. It would
have been shockingly unmannerly of
them to step over the barrier. Tho
lady of tho house, dressed In her best
dishabille, sat on tho edgo of tho bed.

Guilty Anyway.
Tho most striking instance of a van
ished man coming again to light to
take part in legal proceedings is that
which occurred In a case where Dan
iel O'Connell was defending a man in
dicted for murder. The caso for the
prosecution seemed as clear as pos
sible, and O'Connell contented himself
with fewer questions than were to
havo been expected of so eminent a
cross examiner. When tho caso for the
crown had closed ho Announced that
ho had but ono witness to call, but
that witness was Important to the
case, ne was tho murdered man, very
much alive. Thero was no doubting
the man's identity everybody knew
it Tho Judge therefore turned to tho
Jury and directed them to ncqult the
prisoner. To his amazement however,
they returned a verdict of guilty.
Asked for an explanation, tho foreman
observed that they had no doubt that
the prisoner was innocent of tho mur
der. "But," ho added, "wo find him
guilty of sthonling my ould gray mare
threo weeks ago."
Who Ho Was.
Tho "cub" reporter Is tho greenest
reporter on the staff of a newspaper.
When anything particularly stupid
happens on tho paper he Is the ono
first to bo accused, and he Is usually
rightly accused. Tho only solvation
for him is to improve,' which he does
In nine cases out of a dozen. The Bos
ton Journal told recently of an amus
ing "break" of n wholly innocent na
ture which a certain cub made.
Tho reporter had been sent to a sub
urb to report a sermon. Ho arrived
late, near tho closo of tho service and
took a seat near the door. When tho
lost hymn was over ho asked his neigh
bor, an elderly gentleman:
"What was the text of the sermon?"
'"Who art thou?'" answered tho
parishioner.
"Boston reporter," replied tho other.
The man smiled. Subsequently he
told the preacher, who next Sunday
told the congregation at the cub's ex-
nnnao.
