CONDENSED MILK.
1t Is Prepared by Very Simple and mex.
Pensive Processes.


PensIye Processes.
Nearly every body is familiar with the
appearance if not the taste of con-
densed milk, but comparatively few
persons know how it is made The San
Francisco Examiner describes the proc
ess.
When condensed milk was first in
troduced, thirty years ago." it says,
''the idea was laughed at The inventor
carried the daily supply for New York
city in ten-quart pail, delivering it
personally to his patrons. He died
worth $1,000, 900, made ont of the bust
ness, which has grown to be a gigantic
industry. The processes employed are
very simple, the fresh milk being put
into great copper tank with steam
jacket.
while it is being heated, sugar is
added, and the mixture is then drawn
Off into vacuum tank, where evap-
Grafton is produced by heat The
vacuum tank will hold g, ZOO quarts. 1t
has glass window at the top, through
which the operator in charge looks
from time to time.
He can tell by the appearance of the
milk when time has arrived to shut off
the steam, and this must be done just
at the right moment, else the batch will
be spoiled. Next the condensed milk is
drawn into forty-quart cans, which are
set in very cold spring water, where
they are made to revolve rapidly by
mechanical continuance, in order that
their contents may cool evenly"

The Progressive Farmer.

One of the best things that can hap
pen to a farming community that is be-
hind the times is for a progressive
farmer to move in. Every improved
method of farming that he brings with
him is sure to attract attention, more
attention. in fact, than some radical
improvement made by one of the old
residents. The newcomers farming
operations will be watched closely and
talked about If his methods are nota-
bly, successful they will be adopted
more or less by his neighbors, and the
farming of the whole community be
bettered. If he sets good example, it
is sure to have a good effect on the

the wind. In localities swept by the
wind, blowing for long periods of the
year, the trees, trunks and especially
the tops will inevitably incline away
from the line of the force of the wind.
This is especially noticeable in Chicago,
for instance. in the case of such classes
of trees as the willow. To protect
young trees against sun-scald, a shield
may cover the tender bark from twelve
to three o'clock p. m.
Our correspondent is right in the
statement that trees should be set per-
pendicular and not leaning against the
prevailing wind, since the effect would
be to twist the young tree out of shape.

Good Roads Make Wealth.

In all the states the question of road
improvement has within a year sudden
ly become favorite theme for discus
sion. In some states the authorities
have made exhaustive computations of
the burden of bad roads and of the esti-
mated cost of good ones. No denial has
been suggested of the proposition that
dirt roads cost the people more than
hard ones in the long run. The heaviest
transportation charge upon average ag-
r;cultural products is that upon the pas
sage from farm gate to railroad station.
If the country can support railroads
capitalized at $40, O0o, 600, 900 it ought to
stand the expenditure of one-tenth of
that amount in macadamizing the high
ways between farms and railroads.
Much of the isolation, backwardnessa and
discomfort of farm life is due to the
difficulties of travel, and land might be
expected to approach again its old re.
lation to other values If macadam could
be substituted for mud

The Striped Cucumber Beetle.

We know of no absolute protection
from the attacks of this insect. Usually
the plants can be saved from destruc-
ton or serious injury by applications of
land plaster, bone dust or almost any
other dust-like material. When, as is
sometimes the case, the beetles appear
in large numbers, they may destroy the
young plants in spite of such applica-
lions. Paris green is a promising rem
edy, and if little lime is added to the
Paris green water the foliage will not
be injured. Apply it in fine spray,
taking care to reach the lower side of
the leaves. There are spraying nozzles
now made for that particular purpose.
One favorite method of keeping Oft the
beetles and killing the maggots, if there
are any at the roots, is to cover the
ground around the plants on each hill
with an inch or more of tobacco dust.
Soaking the ground near the roots with
a solution of satpeter, limewater or to-
bacco is also likely to give relief from
maggots.-American Gardening.

HOW TO PLANT TREES.

and Illustrated.

The Right and the Wrong Way Described
and Illustrated.
In number Of agricultural journals you may
perhaps have noticed that in nearly every in
stance where advice is given on the planting of
trees, the leaning of the tree against the pre-
vailing wind is recommended in order to bal
ance the tree.
The practice is wrong. No stakes should be
used until the tree has welldeveloped head.
which will be in the second season after plant
ing; with you, perhaps, year later.
1t used to be the practice to lean the
tree against the prevailing wind. and
also as supposed remedy for sun-scald
of the bark by the action of the sun.
This, however, is now thing of the
past, unless in exceptional cases. If
stakes are used the trees are SO attached
as to allow fair play of the trunk, SO
that the tree may regain its upright,
natural position upon the subsistence OF

DON'T DO 1T.

Business Women Should Leave Work to
Others Who Live by Sewing.
Everyone has pet economy, and the
business woman, the working woman,
tries to economic by doing her own
dressmaking. She likes to dress well
and 1T does seem extravagant to pay SO
much for what she might do herself. 1t
requires brave woman to attack her
headgear, but with clever fingers and
good taste a dress doesn't seem such an
undertaking.
But really you ought not to do it at
all.
If your days work is fulfilled con-
scientiously you ought to give the
evenings to rest and amusement. Yon
would only sit and read, you say? Well,
then, just sit and read. Reading doesn't
give You that sharp pain in your side.
Reading doesn't key you up to point
of feverish excitement because YOU
want to get so much done.
If you like to sew You can ALWAYS
have a dainty bit of fancy work on
hahd. or if you have set your heart on
some luxurious addition to your ward
robe that will give you exercise for
your needle. Then there is ALWAYS
your mending, and the really dainty
woman finds more than enough to fill
the time she should give to evening en-
ployment. But as for dressmaking.
don't try your tired eyes with it at
night. Every little worrisome pucker
in the dress is going to leave little
worried wrinkle in your face, and every
new gown will increase that miserable
nervousness that preys upon so many
American women.
Evening is not the right time to con-
quer complicated dress patterns, and
you would much better do with fewer
dresses and hand your material ov er to
the professional dressmaker, who per-
haps just needs your work to pay for
some help that will give her little
time for rest.
A man never thinks of attempting
TO make his own clothes as an economic
measure, but woman elings to quality
and quantity of raiment. and heads her
list Of economies by making it up her
self. That does very well for the wom-
an whose days are her own, though
often enough it would pay her better
to depend on some one else; but for the
woman who has only the evening for
all the little odd jobs that somehow be-
long to woman's lite, it is bad policy to
add evening dressmaking to her daily
duties, and means aweary middle age,
lacking energy for duty and applica-
ton for pleasure. -PhilAdelphia Times.

The Heart Of Robert bruce.

When Robert Bruce, king of Scot
land, lay upon his death-bed in the
year 1929 he remembered he had regis
tered VOW to help wrest the holy land
from the heather Turks 1t was clear
that the time for fulfilling that VOW
had passed; but new thought pre-
scented. Why not have his heart re-
moved and sent to Jerusalem for burials
To make the story short: This was de-
cided upon, and Sir James Douglas was
commissioned to carry it in a silver urn
ito a place as near as possible to where
the Saviour was crucified," and there
bury it Arriving in Spain, Sir James,
with the precious relic strung to his
neck by a chain, was killed in battle
with the Moors. Sir Simeon Locard
returned with the heart to Scotland
and deposited it under the altar of Mel
rose Abbey, where it now is.-st- Louis

but continues. to feel the extreme of human

Those curious authorizations of com
mon English names of implements usual
with Italian laborers are gaining Ger
tain currency. The Italian laborer
calls shovel s'shov,n cellar sscell'' and
Ratchet hatch. English-speaking
foremen find it convenient to adopt
these authorizations and many others in
managing their men, and so all day
long in working gang one may hear
common words thus abbreviated. On
the other hand the Italians pick up and
misapprehend many English words,
especially oaths. Damn. seems with
them an equivalent of very. and an
Italian laborer, smiling blandly and
without profane intent, will salute his
