INTERESTING CHAPTERS FOR OUR RURAL READERS. Mow Successful Farmers Operate This Department of the Farm—A Few Hints as to tbe Care of Live Stock and Poultry. German Method of Preserving Eggs. A series of interesting experiments in the preservation of eggs, carried on Jast year in Germany, has just been published in an official consular report. After eight months of preservation, 400 eggs, divided into twenty different parcels for that many methods of ex- periment, were examined, with heter- ogenous results. Upon opening for use, the eggs presented the following results, according to the parcels origin- ally numbered: 1. Eggs put up for preservation in salt water were all bad, not rotten, but uneatable, the salt having penetrated into the eggs. 2. Wrapped in paper, 80 per cent bad. 3. Preserved in a solution of salicylic acid and glycerine, 80 per cent bad. 4, Rubbed with salt, 70 per cent bad. 5. Preserved in bran, 70 per cent bad. 6. Provided with a covering of paraf- fin, 70 per cent bad. 7 Varnished with a solution of glycerine and salicy- lic acid, 70 per cent bad. 8. Put in boiling water for twelve to fifteen sec- onds, 50 per cent bad, 9. Treated with a solution of alum, 50 per cent bad. 10, Put in a solution of salicylic acid, 50 per cent bad. 11. Varnished with water glass, 40 per cent bad. 12. Varnished with collodion, 40 per cent bad. 13. Covered with lac (probably shellac varnish), 40 per cent bad. 14. Varnished with sward, 20 per cent bad. 15. Preserved in wood ashes, 20 per cent bad. 16. Treated with boric acid and water glass, 20 per cent bad. 17. Treated with manganate of potash, 20 per cent bad. 18, Varnished with vaseline, all good. 19. Preserved in lime water, all good. 20. Preserved in a solution of water glass, all good. The last three methods are conse- quently to be considered the best ones, and especially the preservation in the solution of water glass, as varnishing the eggs with vaseline takes too much time, and the treatment with lime j water sometimes communicates to the eggs a disagreeable odor and taste. There is one drawback with eggs pre- served in a solution of water glass— the shell easily bursts when placed in boiling water. It is said this may be avoided by cautiously piercing the shell with a strong needle. Small Capital for Poultry. It is an advantage with poultry keep- ing that the beginner can make his capital; that is, he can grow his capi- tal if he will be patient, says Cole- man’s Rural World. What is meant is that if one commences with fifty hens he need not™be compelled to buy more stock immediately, as he can prepare one year for the next. He may have 200 hens the second year, and have all accommodations complete. The third year he may have a flock of 500, and then increase every year, so that in five years his farm may contain 1,000 hens. It will extend the period over five years, hence as the beginning is with a few, the capital will be small, and, as he adds to the number of his hens, he at the same time enlarges his capital. Now. that is a point in favor of the poultry business—this gradua! enlargement of the capital which makes it so attractive to many, and which also makes the business possible to those who cannot derive as large profit in proportion to capital invested in any other pursuit. But the great difficulty is the fact that nearly all who turn their attention to poultry are unwilling to wait five years, They are not in- clined to build up a business, but en- deavor to get into it the first year, with a proof from limited capita] and no ex- perience, the result being that the list of failures is a long one. The one who begins with a few and increases his flock gains experience as he travels along the road of progress, and, while increasing his capital through the nat- ural increase of his flocks, is adding to his experience and becoming more capable of accomplishing the objecis sought. The capacity of the plant is made the greater by the production of the flocks, the eggs and poultry sold being the sources of income. It may be a hardship to support a family while getting well into the business, but the sacrifices made will be well repaid later. While building up a business, the selection of good layers from pure breeds and the escaping of disease will also assist in insuring success, The Butter Conflict Abroad. The American butter-makers have a hard fight before them in their at- tempts to capture the butter market. In this connection the Dairy World of London says: “The high hopes of American producers do not appear to be approaching speedy realization so far as the trade in butter with this country is concerned, for if we take the season represented by the first two months of the year and compare it with the preceding season, we find that the receipts from the United States have fallen from 46,873 cwt. to 8,410 ewt. The imports from Denmark, Sweden and New Zealand have, on the other hand, materially increased. An- other factor which is calculated to tell against the American product is the increase in the supply of butter from Ireland, and with this increase a de- cided improvement in the quality and uniformity of the article, resulting from a careful study of the require- ments of the English market. It can- not be said that American makers have altogether “hit off” the taste of the English consumer, the preferenc2 for a less highly flavored article being to the disadvantage of the American product. The competition in butter being so keen, and the sources of pro- duction so numerous—thereby giving “heads. almost unlimited choice to the British purehaser—it is indispensable, apart from the question of flavor, that the choicest grades only should be put upon the market, and that the greatest attention should be paid to uniformity of quality, in which there is certainly much room for improvement.” Robertson's Combination Silage. Prof. Henry, in his new book on “Feed and Feeding,” has this to say about the Robertson combination silage: “Robertson, of the Dominion station, Ottawa, in the effort to secure a silage containing the nutrients of a balanced ration, concluded that the following mixture would prove satisfactory: Ten tons of green fodder corn, three tons of English horse beans, and one and one-half tons of sunflower heads.. To secure the proper proportion of these crops under Canadian conditions, for each acre of corn there should be planted half an acre of horse beans and one-fourth of an acre of sunflow- ers. This mixture was found satisfac- tory in feeding trials with dairy cows and fattening steers. Since the horse bean does not thrive in the United States, except possibly-in the extreme north, some other plant must be sub- stituted in mixtures of this character. Mr. G, F. Weston, superintendent of the Biltmore estate, North Carolina, reports to the writer that he has found that one load of cow pea vines mixed with two loads of green corn forage produces an excellent silage for dairy cows.” Tuberculosis in Raw Milk. Conflicting testimony as to contagia- bility of milk is to hand from various quarters, writes John McDougail in the Dairy World (London). Professor Law says milk is more to be dreaded than meat, being uncooked, and an infant’s principal food, but that a strong con- stitution protects, and instances a two months’ old pig fed on affected milk for six weeks, and when killed, found perfectly free and healthy, whereas fabbits inoculated with the same.milk were affected in six weeks. Nocard and M’Fadzean hold that milk from a tuberculosis cow, unless the udder is affected, is noninfecting. Bang says he has examined sixty-three tu- berculous cows with healthy udders, and found milk infected in nine cases, Ernst testifies to the same ex- perience. Dr. Amoback instances the death of his son, a healthy boy of thir- teen years, suddenly taken ill and died in five weeks, and revealed, on post- mortem, tubercular inflammation of the lungs. This boy’s parents were free from any hereditary taint, but the cow, whose milk the boy had been con- suming, was found suffering from ad- vanced tuberculosis of the lungs when killed. Outlet for Our Butter.—Addressing Wisconsin dairymen, J. H. Monrad said: “During the past year several experimental shipments of .creamery butter have convinced the dealers in England that if they can. afford to pay our price they can get as good butter from here as anywhere. It remains to convince the consumers in England of this fact. The trouble is that our home market in reality is the best, and for that reason it may be years before we establish a regular all-the-year-round export, but as my own private opinion I may state that I have been convinced that we have a safety valve for our pro- duction and that there is no need of letting extra creamery go below 15 cents in Chicago if we will only deliver per- fect milk or adopt Pasteurization, in order to secure a uniformity. It is to be hoped that this safety valve will be used rather than the usual cold storage speculation, which only depresses the market later on.” Uninspected Horseflesh Exported.— The American government has never taken official cognizance of horseflesh as an article of export. Nevertheless, it is being exported. If this trade be allowed to go on it should be subjected to the same inspection rules as beef and other meats that are ordinarily ex- ported.. If this be not done, the meat trade of this country will suffer, for the reason that the prejudice awakened by the unsanitary horseflesh will pass over to the other meats. We can not claim that a man being a citizen of the United States necessarily makes him an angel, and therefore we must look out for the rogue among us that he does not bring our good name into disgrace in foreign lands. Recently the authorities in Sweden inspected some horseflesh imported from Amer- ica and claim to have found it to be of a character entirely unfit for food, the flesh being evidently from diseasec animals. Fattening Beeves.—Corn will be higher than it was last year. We will feed our young steers more corn fod- der and less grain because of this, but the steers designed for market will re- ceive all the grain they will be able to digest. With corn at 40 cents per bushel and a large quantity of low- priced roughness, it would pay to feed freely of the latter and less of the former, taking a longer time in fatten- ing. Years ago the writer satisfied himself that it did not pay to feed young steers grain when they were on good pasture in Illinois, and that, on the other hand, it was a mistake to drop the grain feed for cattle de- signed to be marketed fat during the summer, however good the pasturage was.—Wallace’s Farmer. A cattle boom is on, and farmers should be careful not to lose their If not very careful they will find themselves paying big prices for poor animais. This is always the ex- perience in boom times. The question of changing fat con: tents of milk seems not to occupy the place in dairy discussions that it for- merly did. It is becoming an accepted conclusion that fat does not follow richness of food Tis Medicine. “And you say Parkirson has taken the gold cure? Why. I never knew that he drank.” “Oh, it wasn’t drink.
