AGRICULTURAL. Desirable Cheese How Made, These an- sotnu of the desirable Dualities in cheese : I. Rich, clean creamy flavor. J. St. lid, firm, buttery body. 3. Fine, silky, flaky texture. 4.

A little while spot, no larger i ban .i pea, will <-;tuse the breeder to dis- card a vigorous Blown Leghorn male and re- tain a weaker one that has a perfect color of the wing. This mode of selection by tlr- breeder is not conducive to production, nor should he wonder if the fanners' liens that ,tie probably of good crosses and wlucli have all the advantages of liberty, should iipenor lo ihe allow room pets.

Thorough distnbut ion of the ,_ rennet ,.! from the farmers, and l,y using good breeds, for crosses, the farmer need not iu the milk must be effected by dilating the rennet extract and by vigorous stirring. J. SulhViL'iit rennet to coagulate the curd into a state tit for catting in from thirty- live to furty minuies at from eighty-six de- grees, to ninety degrees should be used. When an extra amount of rennet is used a corresponding increase in the weight of salt should be added to the curd. :i. The contents of the vat should be per- fectly still when coagulation commences. Vil.ration of the door aiid of thu vat during the thickening of the milk causes waste. 4. The horizontal knife should be used first in cutt:ng, and active stirring should not commence until the cubes of curd be- come slightly heated. :>. The temperature should be raised gradually to ninety or ninety eight degree* Fahrenheit. 0. The stirring should be continued until the curd panicles are so well ''cooke,!" or "dried" that when a handful bos been pressed for a few moments they will fall , _ . . i . i irvui me a part again as the result, of any slight dis- -, of lne look to tho spring anil summer seasons only. 101 a (lock of \ ic'irous hulls should lay] during the entire year, i \.-epi w en 'hey are moulting.

The temperature should he maintained at or above ninety-four degrees. 10. The curd should be allowed to mat into one mass. 11.

The Farm Hen not believe in scrub Soil for Sheep A c< i respondent of the Cultivator ex- piuins why failure soniutiines follow s .it- tempts at keeping hup with profit.

Knt the fact is that the farmer's bens seldom lay in winter unless in thu possession of thoso who care for them.
