ABOUT CONDENSED MILK.
How TO Distlng uish the Genuine and Pure
Article.


Article.
The general appearance OF con-
densed milk. when poured from
spoon, should be glossy-the more
glossy the better. 1t should be ropy or
stringy like very heavy sirup. The
color should be that OF cream; but the
color varies according to the season OF
the year in which the milk Is con-
densed. as natural milk not condensed
varies in color. Milk is yellower In
summer, when cows are on pasture,
than In winter, when they are fed on
dry hay. Thickness varies with age.
Thickening by age is natural to con-
densed milk; rapid thickening only
proves that the milk is preserved in
the best manner and that 1t retains In
the highest degree the characteristics
of milk in its natural state. Con-
densed milk which does not thicken by
age or which thickens very slowly Is
milk abused in tho process OF condens-
ing. Consumers make great mistake
in supposing that tho thinnest con-
densed milk is the best. The thlnnest
condensed milk contains the most
water, and OF course less Of milk solids
or milk nutritives.. The thickest con-
densed milk. IL in sound condition. Is
the most valuable. There is degree
OF thickness however that is incon-
venient. If condensed milk Is so thick
that 1t will not run out when an open
can is inverted, 1t is troublesome to
dissolve. IL il, is not actually hard.
very little stirring in the can will
render it sufficiently liquid for con-
venlent use. Condensing milk, II pro-
perly done, does not destroy cream
globules. but leaves the constituents of
milk unaltered and natural. One
method therefore OF determining the
relative quality Of different samples OF
condensed milk is to ascertain the
amount OF butter that can be made
from each.

Frozen 5000 Feet Deep.

For many years scientists have been
perplexed over the phenomena of a
certain we'll at Yakutsk, Siberia. As
long ago as 1928 a Russian merchant
began to sink this noted well, and
after working on it for three years
gave it up as a bad job, having at that
time sunk It to a depth OF thirty feet
without getting through the frozen
ground. He communicated these facts
to the Russian academy OF science,
which sent men to take charge OF the
digging operations at the wonderful
well. These scientific gentlemen
toiled away at their work for several
years, but abandoned it when a depth
OF 882 feet had been reached, with the
earth still frozen as hard as a rock.
In 1843 the academy had the tempera-
ture OF the soil at the sides Of the we'll
taken at various depths. From the
data thus obtained they came to the
startling conclusion that the ground
was frozen to depth exceeding 1000
feet Although 1t is known to meteor
ologists that the lowest known tenn
perature is in that region of Siberia,
1t Is conceded that not even that rig
orous climate could force frost to such
great depth below the surface. After
figuring on the subject for over a
quarter of century, biologists have at
last come to the conclusion that the
great frozen valley Of the Lena river
was deposited, frozen just rs 1t Is found
to-day, during tho great grinding-ur
era OF the glacial epoch. Mining and

How 70 Treat Chamois skin.

Considering what useful thing @
chamois skin is, 1t is astonishing that
there is 80 much ignorance as to the
proper way Of keeping it in order and
lengthening its term OF service. Cham
OILS skins should never be left in water
after being used. but should be wrung
out and hung up to dry, being spread
out carefully, so as to leave no wrink-
les. They should not be used to wipe
of colors. as paint stains from hard
spots and make the skin wear out
sooner. Chamois was never intended
to wipe the face and hands with. which
makes it become greasy. Never put a
chamois skin into warm water; any
thing above luke warm water will curl
it up, making it become thick, tough
and useless.

USE OF MICE TAILS.
The Cunning Rodents Find Them Useful
When Fighting Each Other.

The Cunning Rodents Find Them Useful
when Fighting Each Other.
Before We had much observed mice
the use OF their long tails was ques-
ton that had puzzled us. We do not
know OF what service they are to the
females, but to the bucks they are, we
see, OF use in their combats; for when
they fight they very often face one
another standing on their hind legs
the tail then making, az with kan
garoos, the third feature OF a tripod.
Their appearance, when they thus
stand facing one another with their
heads thrown back and their paws in
front OF their faces, is on account por-
haps Of the resemblance it bears to the
posture OF prize-fghters, extremely
comic. Small mice. also, when at
tackled by their bigger congeners.
raise their paws before their faces, the
attitude in that case strangely suggest
ing one OF depreciation.
What occurs when bclligerent bucks
actually engage, only instantaneous
photography could record. so rapidly
are their movements. Presumably,
they try to bite, but must consider de-
Tense the better part of valor, for they
never appear to get hurt much, and
between the rounds will nibble away
at the crust which brought them into
the vicinage, only showing their ex-
element by rafting their tails against
the ground. Occasionally tail seized
by the teeth leads to one mouse having
to drag his enemy over the floor till
the latter lets 20.

A RECENT writer, who made person
al observations in France and Italy.
draws the conclusion that there is no
longer any such commodity as pure
olive oil. Visiting all the oil-produc-
ing factories OF Italy. and applying
scientific tests. he discovered that
what was sold for olive oil and labeled
as such almost always contained an
admixture OF cottonseed oil or other
authorizations. Arguments for the
proper labelling OF food products, un-
der penalty Of law, continue to multi
ply. The oil-producing countries OF
Europe are but q single instance OF
gross imposition upon the public. 1t
Is not contended that many OF these
food authorizations are anything but
beneficial from various standpoints.
They are often cheaper than the pure
article; and hence more accessible to
the poor. In these days Of chemical
discoveries the entire constituent parts
of the various foods have their substi-
tutes. All are not equally good, but
all are not bad.

THOSE looking after freight rates are
aware that the cost OF transportation
is not very much lower than it was a
few years ago. Farm products OF all
kinds are carried at comparatively re-
duced rates, and just now grain is
transported from the West to the At
lantic seaboard at prices before un-
known. The tendency OF the times is
plainly toward cheaper transportation,
and there Is little reason to doubt that
farmers will have less to complain OF
in the way Of exorbitant charges in
freight in the next few years than they
have had heretofore.
