fxh to convey an adequate idea of the
immense quantity of materials that

only when the total daily amount of these

Disputed Subject
In the year 1894 it was discovered by
actual experiment that a diamond
would burn. Then Cosmos III had
one fixed in the focus of a burning
glass, and after some exposure TO the
rays of the sun il cracked, -cOrruseated
and finally disappeared like a ghost,

ever existed, not even an atom of ashes.
But experiments of this sort were
costly; they were long in yielding any

With much less money than 800 q
first class outfit can be purchased of any
OF the standard makes of cabinet cream
cry supplies, and with a well filed ice
house-which, by the way, no farmer
should try to get along without-this
will put it within the power of every
butter maker to make an article which
she win not be obliged to sell for shil-
ling pound, OF trade ont at the village
grocery.
Our dairy outfit consists of a milk
room, 12 by Is feet, adjoining the wash.
room. It is wainscoted up and ceiled
inside with black oak in strips three
inches wide, plain, alternating with
beaded. This is finished with oil On
one side is refrigerator, which is built
out into the ice house, which joins the
miIlhoom on that side. This refrigerator
is home made afnir, and is simply a
large box, four feet in width, the same
in depth and five in height, with the
open side toward the mi1kroom, from
which door opens into it. It Is fitted
with shelves for the storing of cream,
butter, etc 1t is lined with galvanized
iron Of course, it is surrounded on
three sides and the top with ice The
cabinet creamer, a barrel churn, a butter
worker, together with table and scales
for weighing butter. A well of pure
cold water is within three feet of the
door. Though this system may not pro
duce any better results than the spring
water, 1t has at least one or two advan-
tages- 1t can be used in winter and
summer alike; while a separate milk
room at. some distance from the house
might not perhaps be convenient at all
seasons of the year, and great saving
of steps is also effected by having the
milkroom under the same roof as the
living rooms.
The public or cooperative crealneries
take a great deal of work off Gne hands
of the farmers wife, and unless there is
some better way of marketing butter
than the average country town affords
it Is much better to send the cream to
the creamery than to make it up at
home. The creameries established upon
the cooperative plan pay for the butter
made from the cream, each lot being
tested at the time it Is taken, thus Civ
ing for it a fair price, in many instances
more than could be got for it if made up
at home Then afterward semi-annual
dividends are made of the profits. This
has been a remarkably poor year for
butter all over the country, yet the CO
operative creamery of our county has
just declared dividend of nearly four
cents per pound ON all the butter made
during the past season. Such an msti-
tuition should be looked upon as public
benefaction and patronized accordingly.

FOR THE CHEESEMAKE
THINGS TO BE OBSERVED m cr,aNe-
ING A FLUID TO A SOLID.

An Experienced Canadian Cheesemaker
Gll es Some Valuable Suggestions-Uni-
form MILK Necessary to Make Uniform
Cheese -f>utrefactive Fermentation.
In an address before the New York
Farmers institute, Mr.. d. Mcpherson,
the noted Ontario cheesemaker, said:
We are all anxious to learn something
new. Cheesemaking has been supposed
20 be a very simple thing. Ny expert
ence of twenty one years has taught me
that it Is i very difficult thing. It is al
most impossible to control results and to
make cheese such as is wanted. Cheese
making consists simply in changing
fluid into solid. This on the surface
may seem to be little thing, but it is
in reality a very intricate thing to do.
But one thing is added-rennet mot
counting salt); and one thing taken out
whey. Fermentation is the chief chem
ical factor. To control this agent is the
most difficult thing to do and have its
work just right.
The first requisite is a uniform con-
dition of the milk. Without uniform
milk we cannot have uniform cheese.
Temperature, moisture and time are
most important. Milk which has about
per cent. of butter fat and per cent.
of casein, being pure and sweet in favor,
is what is wanted. Any slight change
in the temperature and composition of
milk will affect the character of the
cheese. Too much moisture is detri-
mental. If the air is charged with cleo
tricity the milk should be cooled. It
should always be aerated. A great deal
of aeration viii improve its keeping
qualities, ard it will also make better
cheese.
Any discovery which would enable us
to determine the exact amount of moist
ure would be a boon to cheesemakers
AS shown with the hot iron, the curd
should contain 4S per cent of moisture
when there are fine threads on the iron
When taken from the press the cheese
should have 3S per cent. OF moisture,
and when well cured 33 per cent An
excess OF moisture tends to carry on fer
mentation; reduction to lessen it. A
low temperature leaves soft, pasty
cheese, and high temperature, hard,
firm cheese, according to the degree of
heat. PutrefactiVe fermentation must
be avoided. 1t is the greatest dread of
| the cheese maker.
"A AdTS0 dIIlOuIlb OF e8C1Q ana moisture
in the cuTd at any stage causes the
cheese to be leaky, crumbly and mealy.
A small amount of acid with an ordi-
nary amount of moisture causes corky,
open cheese, with a smooth texture, and
it goes of-havor very shortly. Milk
should keep sweet three hours at tenn
perature of 81 degs. When the curd will
draw out on a hot iron one-sixteenth OF
an inch it is ready to have the whey
drawn off. The acid should be devel-
oped after this at a temperature of 90
degs. to SO degs- for four hours, after
which it should be cooled to IS degs.
preparatory to salting and the press.
The amount Of acidity thus developed
overcsmss putrefaction and preserves
the favor and quality Of the cheese. We
must make our cheese as perfect in al
its stages as possible, and make 1t so that
it will retain its good qualities and reach
the consumer IN the best possible condi-
ton

Notes.

The following remedy Is recommended
for COW that gives bloody milk: Ex-
tract phytolacca decannra fluid, five
ounces; water, one pint; mix, and give
two ounces three times daily. Also ap-
ply locally phytolacca in the proportion
of about one to four of water.
Rich and high feeding VIII not only
produce a greater flow Of milk, but will
make the milk richer.
When the COW rs shedding her hair
her milk is poorer and thinner than at
other times.
Thunder storms sour milk, but it Is not
son account of electricity passing through
the milk. On the contrary, electricity
passed in a current through milk will
keep it sweet for considerable length
of time. But if the electric current is
passed over the milk and above 1t sour
ing is hastened. The Italian chemist
who made these experiments reasoned
that the electric current in the air above
the milk produced ozone, and that was
what caused the acidulation-
The souring of milk is attributed, like
everything else now, to the development
of bacillus Warmth develops this
bacillus, hence if the milk is kept very
cold it does not appear and multiply.
An excellent ration for pigs is two
parts of milk, either SKINNED or butter
milk, to one of corn meal
