According to this analysis, the Minnesota
straight grade contains the least moisture
and the most gluten, or in other words, is
the Strongest of the three samples analysed.
Ihsmay arise either from the superiority
OF tie wheat used or a more careful method
OF milling than is employed in manufacture
ing the other brands. We have in course of
preparation an analysis of wheat from
which these flourssswere made >. and in our
nextissue we shall be able to present some
definite facts. in reference to the nature of
the Wheat mentioned in the above table, 1t
appears thus far, that Ohio wheat has less
moisture than either Minnesota or Pennsyl-
vania wheat, from which it would seem that
more care was exercised in removing the
moisture from the Minnesota wheat prepar-
atory to-. and daring the process of grind
ing, than IN the case Of the Ohio wheat.
Pennsylvania wheat contains more moisture
than the other two, and less gluten.
When tested by the thermometer, the three
samples offour mentioned above give the
following results:
Strainggt grade from Mennesota Fife.32deg
. :" Ohio Winter......3S 8
S g 6 Penna. winter. ..36 $
From this it appears that although the
Minnesota flour contains more gaten and
less moisture than the other two. the elias
ticity of the gluten in the Ohio'and Pensyl-
vania samples is considerable greater. Only
seventy-five grains OF the gluten OF each
(nearly five grammes) was used instead of
seven grammes, or about 10S grains, the
amount usually omployedin Europe in test
ing flour, as we have found that the gluten
of our American flour possesses so much
more elasticity than that ofEuropean fiollrs
that seven grammes would, in the case OF
many if not most of our flours, mark a
higher number than the thermometer regis

proper training whel the cow is Young and
continuation OF kindness toward her will
ooV'ate the cause for whipping. Not only
Ks Whipping injurious to the cow and her
milk, but they that practice it can hardly
give that attention to cleanliness so neces-
SaFy Ia the milking and handling OF milk for
butter. On the subject of cleanliness in the
making or butter a very estimable and we'll
informed Farmers wife" said: 1.-The art
OF making good butter lies not in any one
or two steps of the process, but in care and
cleanliness throughout the whole-in hand
ling the milk aud cream before churnine, as
well as the butter afterwards. And this
care should commence at milking, for if this
is carelessly done and the filth OF the corral
allowed to impregnate the milk, it will
surely affect the cream and butter." To be
perfectly clean not only should whipping
and chasing the cows be avoided in the cor
ral when milking, but the hands and uten-
siis should be clean. A very good plan is
to clean the cows teats and brush the dust
FROM the cow before beginning to milk.
Much can be done in aid of cleanliness by
keeping the corrals and barns clean, and in
having a fresh grass pasture for the cows
during the night. If possible barn with
hard floor divided into stalls should be had
for the cows While milking. Such a build
ing is especially useful in the. summer
months when the flies are bad and will be
found useful during the coolest winter days.
In many locations i'll Montana water may be |
brought through a ditch to such a position
that with the use ct small hose the barn
and corral may be easily kept clean, thus
aiding in the cleanliness while
milking and were [ selecting q location the
of water for this purpose would
especially be looked to.
AS soon as the milk is drawn from the
cow it should be placed in an apartment
where it cannot be reached by the wind and
lust. LII moving it to the dairy room vlgi-
ant care should be taken as to cleanliness.
Dur best butter and cheese makers never
allow the same suit to be worn in the corral
md dairy room. They usually have the
milk delivered to the door where they receive
md strain it, putting it in clean vessels,
lever allowing any filth of the corral to
come inside OF the house. They also avoid
he use of tobacco while in the dairy.

gals they read Shakespeare, and
they are all the while talking about

Saturn and Jupiter. Now, you
havn't got a stove in the lot with 4

and just imagine folks like us sittin'
around a stove with a plug name
