Dairy Cow* and Their Feed'.
I believe, says W. A. Brown in the
New York Tribune, there are many dis
been couraged farmers, who for years have
vainly trying to get out of debt,
who would find in a well managed dairy
their best opportunity. If the cream
can be sold to a factory and the milk
kept the at labor home the wife will he relieved of
with suitable of making the good butter, but
apparatus and help a
farm dairy of from ten to thirty cows
can be managed very comfortably, and
rather than sell the milk 1 would advise
that the butter bo made at home, for
with the milk the heifer calves can be
raised to keep up the herd, and when
fed to pigs in cornection with other
foods a pound of pork can be made fox
each ten to fifteen pouuds of milk, and
this will pay for quite a percentage of
the food of the cows. After many
years Jerseys of for experience the butter I recommend dairy. The grade

and a choice Jersey bull and begin grad

small teats, so it is well to
select large-tented cows for the founda

bulls can be bought cheap, for the sup

to be true also that grades
from three-quarters to seven-eights
dairy Jersey blood are as valuable for the
and as dairyman higher grades or thoroughbreds,
a can, in a few years,
raise a herd of grades that will produce
fifty per cent, more of butter and of
better quality. There is a strong prej
udice among farmers against this breed
because of their small size, but long ex
perience led with botji large and small cows
me to the conclusion that they eat iu
proportion food to their weight, and that the
of support necessary for two cows
of 1200 pounds each is ample for three
of 800 pounds each, and ou a much less
amount of food, with me, the small cows
will average more butter than the large
one. Two winters ago I fed in the same
stable large anil small cows; last winter

quite noticeable. The idea that you

Strange Customs in Siam.

well, there having been no execution

four or five prisoners at the time of their

With regard to slaves, every man of
the lower orders must be enrolled at the
Sanam as the slave of some master, but
he is allowed to choose whom he will
serve, and if he does not like one, he
may re-enroll himself as the slave of an
other, his own name being then changed.
A slave is fed by his master while he is
working for him, but at other times he
must feed himself. No purchase money
is paid for him by his owner. During

HOUSEHOLD MATTERS.
Steaming Food.
There are some housekeepers who are
fully alive to the value of a steamer, as
never had one in their houses. What
ever can be boiled can be steamed, and
when the process is completed and the
food di-hed, instead of having a pot or
saucepan to wash out, always a distaste
ful task, or a pudding cloth to rinse or
cleanse, there is only the clean, damp
strainer to be wiped dry, and the earthen
dish to be washed in which the food was
cooked ; an enormous saving of tried trouble, both
as any one will testify who has
methods.
Steamers may be purchased of all
styles and prices, from elaborate ones in
tiers, forming separate compartments in
which different viands can be steamed
at the same time, down to tiny ones useful to
