"But won't you come to please me?" he said softly. !tYou know I can't get over very often, and I wish it so much !" "Why should I do this, or any thing else to please you?" she asked coldly.- "Well, maybe you think there is no reason now why we should wish to , please each other. But there is, Jennie!

The outer one should be properly cov ered with three-ply to make the struc ture nir-tight. When properly in sulated a room with n Bub-earth air duct can be kept continually at from sixty to sixty-live degrees. The gen eral plan of the sub-earth duct is this: There ought to be a stack to admit air. It ought to be about fifty to sev enty feet high with a hood so arranged as to turn au opening toward the wind and cause a draft down the chimney. The stack ought to lead in to a passage about twelve feet under ground, where the ground is coolest, for a distance of about one hundred feet and then up into the curing room . The curing room must of course have a ventilation. The sub-earth duct maj be divided into several cool passages by means of drain pipe. This same principle has been applied by run ning the air into a well and then intc the curing room. Tho average cost of such aa air apparatus is about $"0 Practically it has been demonstrated that a curing room even in summer may be kept iu the neighbor of sixty four degrees. Professor F. H. King, in New England Homestead. Cream ICuMlng by Dilution. The idea of the old process of cream by dilution is to dilute the milk with an equal or greater bulk of water; the mixture is allowed to stand two hours or more and then skimmed by draw ing off the skimmilk. It is elairne 1 that this method has several advan tages, especially when various patent contrivances are used that are now being; sold by traveling agent. The fallacy of such clains. was exposed a year or two ago by the New York Ex periment Station and published iu these columm at the time.- Now, the Vermont station announces the re sults of exhaustive tests. The dilu tion" method left in the skimmilk thirteen per- cent, of the fat o mixed Jersey milk, forty per cent, of the fat "of Ayrshire milk, and seventeen per cent, of the fat of stripper miik, mostly Jersey. A centrifugal separator lelt in the skim milk only between one and two pel cent, of the fit and was able to extract cream from the diluted skimmilk. Speaking of the can that agents are . . ....
