Hard Milkers. We are requested by some of our readers to re-publish the following, by Dr. David Roberts, the State Vet erinarian, of Madison, Wisconsin, who is good authority on the subject. He says: This trouble Is due to an abnormal contraction of the sphincter muscles at the teat and oftentimes reduces the value of what might have other wise been a valuable cow, as no one wishes to purchase or own what is termed as a hard milker; but if stock owners knew how easily this trouble could be overcome they would never think of disposing of a hard milker at a sacrifice, as Is now being done by many., The mere fact that a cow is a hard milker does not indicate that she is not a good milker, but owing to the fact that she 19 a hard milker she is oftentimes neglected at milking time by a disgusted milker, who leaves a large qunntlty of the milk in her udder that should have been drawn out. Stockmen who know how to handle such cases oftentimes buy valuable cows, owing to the fact that they are hard milkers, and by the use of a tent plug and a few treatments for hard milking, caiiRe them to become splendid, easy milkers, thereby in creasing theJr value many more times than the cost of the treatment. A milking tube should never be used in such cases as there is too much dan ger of Infection and the results are not as good as from the use of the teat plug. Staking Tomntops. The nicest way I have found to raise tomatoes Is to tie them up to strong stakes. Drive in tbe stakes solidly and set the plants beside them. Keep them tied up as they grow, and keep a good part of the side shoots trimmed off. I leave four or five of the lower branches and al low them to He on the ground. This 13 some work, but it pays; it gives a chance to go among the vines to hoe and water, and you can have your garden as neat In the time of ripe tomatoes as any other time in the summer. And when you want the ripe tomatoes you can see at a glance Where they are, and every tired wo man knows what a convenience that Is, I seldom see a rotten tomato on the vines that are tied up. The stakes, however, must be strong and firmly' set, for you will often see a peck of tomatoes on the vines. One day a lady friend said: "I'll never tie up tomatoes again; it don't pay, for whenever the tops get heavy over they go." When I walked into her garden, behold, she had procured a lot of elder branches to tie her car nations up to, and tbe largest of these she used for her tomatoes. Another friend decided to use the banana crates which were discarded, at the nearest grocery. The result was very unsatisfactory, as the tomatoes were enclosed and tbe pieces were so close ly fitted that you could hardly get the hand between the latter to pick the tomatoes. A good kind of early tomato is the "Matchless." Early plants are best raised in tin cans that have been melted apart; bend them in shape, set them closely together in the hot bed, fill with good soil and plant three or four seeds in each one. Thin the plants out as they grow until you have only one plant in each can. When you want to transplant to the garden lift can and all; set In the hill prepared for the plant and care fully take off the can, fill In the soil and water and your plant will never know it was disturbed. 0. E. E., In the Indiana Farmer. When to Market Lambs. Many farmers who are beginning in the sheep business have lambs com ing In March and April, and it is well to consider just how to handle these lambs in order to make the greatest profit. Tbe ewe lambs will, for the most part, be kept over for breeding pur poses. The wether lambs will all be sold within twelve months. The prob lem Is whether to push these forward and sell them on the early market, say June, July or August, or to keep them through till Christmas, Janu ary or February, and sell them for about the same number of dollars per head that can be secured in mid summer. Which of these methods should be adopted will depend on the possibility of selling them in carload lots, or to sell them to men who make up car load lots. In a community where there are a great many sheep breeders, and where it is possible for shippers to buy carloads of lambs as they do of hogs, I have no hesitation in saying that the best way is to have the lambs eat oats and corn as early as possible, give them free access to it at all times in clean troughs, allow them the milk of their dams, and sell them at seventy to ninety pounds before weaning. Where one Is so largely engaged In the sheep business that he can handle a carload of wethers at any time, this Is certainly the way to make quick and easy money. My experience has been that by having tbe lambs come In March and April and pushing them forward in this way, I could get as many dollars for them in July and August as I could in January and February. In the meantime they have consumed far less grain, the risk of disease has been reduced to a minimum and money is quickly turned. Where, however, one must depend on the local butcher for his market for lambs, it Is quite as well to finish them off at about 100 pounds at nine, ten or eleven months. It anyone will compare trfe weights and prices ot lambs on the city market, say Chica go, in July and August with the weights and prices in January and February, he will find that the lamb sells for about as many dollars in the first mentioned months as in the last. . One of the main advantages In sell ing early is that the risks from dis ease, especially the stomach worm, are reduced to the minimum. Lambs fed generously from the first are seldom injured by 'these worms, even when kept on infected pastures; but when kept on Infected pastures and given only the milk of their dams they are very likely to succumb to the disease along in Au gust and September. W. H. Under wood, in the Indiana Farmer. A Illiode Island Red Talk. A friend said to the writer the other day: "Geer, what do you know about the Rhode Island Reds, where did they come from anyhow, and where did they get the drag they have on the poultry fraternity?" Our reply to one section of his compound ques tion was prompt: "Rhode Island, of course, up there In Yankeelnnd where they made the Barred Plymouth Rocks, dressed down the Leghorns, Drown, White and Dlack, and struck out of a piece of marble the beautiful White Wyan dotte." In general, however, his question perplexed us, for we do not know as much about the Rhode Island Reds as we should like to know. Dut we do know that In the matter of color It is necessary to breed very closely to the standard In order to make ad vancement in a fixed red color for the breed, It ' will not do, If one wants to raise clear red birds, to breed from fowls with white or smut in their plumage, nor from hens which In their second and third year show too much of the light creamy color. And, our observation is, that a pullet that Is really a good, dark even shade ot red, with no white, and no smut, will not fade to the lighter color as she advances in age, like one that is less clearly red, or one that has defects in the way ot smut, etc. In fact, In breeding Reds, we should select the pullet that shows no smut adown the back in the under feathers, and which has no tendency to light blotches in the heavier feath ers. One that is a good, clear red to the skin, with a glowing, clear red cast in tbe sunshine. This kind of a pullet will, when she gets older, still haVe a well defined reddish cast to her plumage, and will not run to a lighter creamy color, with darker neckhackle. And such a female, mated with a cock bird that Is like wise free of smut and white, with good red undercolor and a good strong red in bis surface color, will throw chickens that will take the breeding line away up, In the way of fixing a truly red breed. In points ot utility tbe Rhode Isl and Reds are all right. The hens do get broody to an aggravation some times it we are not looking for that characteristic; but they may be easily broken up by simply dropping them in a small bare pen with an active cockerel for a few days. They lay well, and keep it up In the cold sea son, too. A friend of ours who has Reds, Rocks and White Plymouth Rocks, let the .two latter breeds go, because he always got more eggs from his Reds than from either of the other breeds. The Reds are hearty, and the chicks grow fast and mature early. It's a good breed and one that will stay with us, settling down eventually along the line of utility with the Barred Plymouth Rocks, the S. C. Brown and White Leghorns, and the Wyandottes. H. B.

Apprehensions for drunkenness totalled 14,167, a de crease of considerably over 4000. While lack of money has no donbt contributed to increased sobriety, the Chief Constable states that the growth ot temperance has been a great factor. A great deal of money has been spent on amusements, which was Just as available for spending In drink. Compared with two years ago the apprehensions for drunkenness showed a decrease of nearly 7000.

Motor Operated and Set in Motion by Pressing a Button, In some buildings ot a seml-publlo nature in which revolving doors are installed, as hotels and stores, they keep a man at the entrance to help operate the door for the greater con venience and comfort of persons en tering and leaving the building. This man starts the door In motion, thus making it easier for the person enter ing to push the rest of the way. But the attendant, according to his natural strength or his mood at the moment, may start the door swiftly or slowly, thus hurrying or retarding the incomer. And then on a person ally operated door one man in the door, impatient, may push the door fast and bang the leaf in front of himself against the heels of the man In the compartment ahead, making him peevish. All these variations and uncertainties In the movements of the door are eliminated by operating it with an electric motor. iTho electrically operated revolving door, has a motor attached to the up per end of tho shaft from which the leaves extend. The motor Is quite out of sight above the horizontal sheath ing at the tcr of the doorway. From the motor and also quite out ot sight wiring extends to a push button set in the wall at the side of the doorway within the building, where the door attendant stands. With a door thus equipped there Is no reaching out and grabbing a leaf and pushing or pulling on it to start it. The attendant simply presses tbe button and so turns the current into the motor, and the motor does the rest, starting the door gently and then keeping it going with a motion that Is steady and uniform.

The cultivated potato is a native of the Chilean and Peruvian Andes, but extends In original typo ns far north as Colorado; where a wild form Is oc casional. Wild varieties of the po tato exist In many parts all over the world, but nowhere was It cultivated before the discovery of the western continent save In North and South America. It was taken to Europe, probably from Peru to Spain, early in the sixteenth century. It seems Sir Francis Drake introduced it Into Eng land in 1586, 'though Sir Walter Ral eigh is said to have done this the year before. It was first regarded as a curiosity, and so remained until the latter part of the eighteenth century, though the Royal Society of London, in 16G3 recommended it as a possible safeguard against famine among the Irish peasantry.
