psrtniMit. Setting Milk,
tbe Vermont Dairy men 'a Association
has recently held a meeting, and numer
ous subjects of practical importance to
farmers have leen discussed. Among
other matters, that of setting milk has
received considerable attention. Mr. J.
W. Williams, of Olastonbury, Conn.,
stated that with the Cooley creamer ex
treme cold was specially desirable only
during the first few hours after placing
the milk in the water. The cream when
gathered, should stand a day or two to
ripen, as time in churning wAuld thus
be saved Mr. J. F. Furguson,of Burling
ton, Vt, exhibited a new pan which is
set upon wheels and is large enough to
hold one milking. When Btralned the
milk Is shoved back into a portable
ventilated apartment, fitted with ice
chamber, wire screens, convenlentdoors,
and arrangements for skimming the
milk and cooling the cream. Mr. E. S.
Wood descriled the following experi
ments in setting milk at various tem
peratures. The trials were made in per
cent glasses, the morning's milk from
the same cow being set at each trial.
The range of temperature is that noted
during the day, no one sitting up nights
to watch the Kperiments. At the time
of making'each record, the cream line
Vas clear and distinct. At the first trial
the temperature near the glasses was
between 80 and 90 degrees. In 31 hours
there was twenty per cent, of cream ; in
10 hours eighteen per cent., and the
same at the end of 24 hours. At the
second trial the mercury stood at from
35 to 40 degrees ; in 31 hours there was
forty per cent, of cream, but at the end
of 10 hours it had shrunk to twenty-two
per cent. It was then removed to a
warm room, where at the end of 24
hours is stood at twenty-two per cent.
At the third trial the mercury stood at
from 70 to 73 degrees. At the end of
two hours there was thirty-four per
cent, of cream, in 10 hours twenty-two
ier cent., and at the expiration of 24
lours but nineteen per cent.
Information for Farmers.
Corn cobs are said to be an excellent
absorbent to place behind catt!e in
stables ; the cobs soa k up a great deal of
liquid and soon decay in the manure
heap, adding their own substance to in
crease its fetilizing value.
An infallible remedy for smut in
wheat is to soak the seed wheat in
brine, and then dust it with un slacked
lime. This is said to be a sure remedy.
Among wheat-producing States Iowa
takes first rank, Minnesota second,
Illinois third and Wisconsin fourth.
Ohio raises the most corn and oats.
Pennsylvania leads them all on rye;
California on barley, and Illinois on
oats and corn.
Uncle Jesse G. Hart says that lie has
never known this remedy for horse
colic to fail : Take a tablespoonful of
lard not too soft and place on it about
as much red precipitate as will lay on
the point of a pocketknife blade, then
give it to the sick animal, and if it fails
to relieve him in fifteen minutes repeat
the dose. Clarke County Ky, Democrat.
Grapes from Cuttings.
The propagation of grapevines from
cuttings may be done with very little
trouble. Have a box two feet high, and
about two and a half wide the lengths
as you require; fill half full of well pul
verized soil ; prepare the cuttings with
three eyes ; cut smooth below the bottom
one ; place them in slanting position,
with the last bud just above the soil ;
take sixpenny white cotton cloth, and
nail tightly over the box ; give warm
soft water freely every evening; place
the box in a sunny nook, and in a few
weeks your box will be filled with grape
vines ready for potting or planting in
borders.
Beans for Sheep.
Beau straw is valuable for sheep, and
when properly cured they eat it with
avidity. In a chemical analysis of
beans, it is found that they abound with
a greater quantity of the elements of
wool than any other grain or vegetable,
to make sheep produce heavy fleeces.
They will eat them with avidity, whole
or ground, even in a damaged state. To
store flocks during the winter season
give generally a pint of beans jer day,
and potatoes. Corn is good for fattening
sheep, but not so valuable as beans, peas,
oats, and most other grains, for the pro
duction of wool.
Pruning Vines.
Few persons practice pruning cucum
ber, melon, and other similar kinds of
vines; still, it is just as beneficial, if
properly done, as the annual pruning of
the grape and other woody plants. The
pruning should I confined, however,
to the pinching off of the ends of shoots
only.
