saline Comfy stallion show.

Had the weather been good and the
roads in fair condition, the annual
stallion show of. the Central Missouri
Horse Breeders association, at Mar
shall, would have been a grand one,
but as there are some things which
neither enterprise or enthusiasm can
prevent or overcome, hence the show
was not what was wanted or expected.
The association has for its object only
the good of the horsemen, and should
number among its members every
owner of a worthy horse in the range
Of counties represented. There are
at least two hundred men in Saline,
Lafayette, Pettis, Cooper and How
ard counties, who could, if they would
make The strongest association in the
state, and work together for the up
building of their own great interests.
The stallion show should measurably
represent that interest. and as it was
postponed until next Saturday, April
18th, it is to be hoped they will turn
out in large numbers and make the
best display ever seen in the state

An Item In Butter Making.

John Gould, whose opinions are worth
reporting, says that it is a mistake to
suppose that sour cream makes more
butter from the cream than sweet. Sour
ing adds nothing; it simply assists the
churn to recover more fat from the
cream. In sweet cream the emulsion is
perfect. If sweet cream is diluted about
three times its bulk in water at eighty
degrees, and allowed to rise a second
time, the difference between the amount
of sweet and sour cream butter will be
inconsiderable, showing that souring the
cream is, after all, only another way of
hberating butter fats from the combined
sugar, cheese and fibrin emulsion. 1t
was asserted by the late Professor Ar
mold that the adding of small amount
of pure cider vinegar to sweet cream
just as the churn started would cause all
the fats to come.
