Dairy Hints from Wisconsin.

D. w. Curtis, secretary OF the Wis
consin Dairymen's association, says:
The process of butter making may be
governed very largely by few general
rules: Obtain good thermometer and
use it; note the temperature that gives
the best results; let cleanliness and
temperature be the controlling factors.
See that the milk as soon us drawn
from the cow is placed in cans and sub
merged in cold water. Skim the cream
sweet, and keep 1t 30 by placing the
can in cold water until ready for ripen-
Ing. Warm it to the right temperature
and furnish 1t with ferment that
shall give 1t the right degree of ncidity
In given length of time, or let the
cream furnish It's own agent for ripen-
ing, and guess at the proper acidity.
Determine by experiment at different
seasons of the year the temperature In
churning that shall give you granular
butter and leave the least trace of but
ter fat in the buttermilk. Wash all
traces of buttermilk from the butter,
work 1t lightly at temperature OF
from So to 81 degrees.

THINNING LETTUCE IN HOT BED Or GREEN
HOUSE


HOUSE.
house is only in line with our desire to
utilize TO the fullest extent all the priv
ileges of suburban home.
This same idea of making the most of
all our opportunities is carried also into
all the details of the work. Our aim Is
to make the best possible use of every
inch Of space, on and under the benches
and on the north (darls) wall besides.
For the present l will give only one
illustration of this point. In open-air
operations / aim to avoid transplanting
wherever possible, preferring to SOW
many seeds, such as lettuce, cabbage
and caulihower, in drills and to thin
the plants to the proper distance In
stead of starting them in seed beds or
fats and transplanting to their perma-
nent place in the field. A similar
course in the greenhouse or hotted
would leave large amount OF space
unoccupied for long periods. This
would not do.
Our plan Is to start everything in
flats, even radishes, grow them as large
as admissible in this way, and then
pTICh Ghc kOOu-slHSu pluuOS oub oii 0lC
benches. But even then we plant let.
tuce close, and afterwards thin grad
ually to the proper distances in the
manner explained in accompanying
diagram
At the left the plants appear as orig
inaQy planted in the beds, say five
inches apart. When they begin to
crowd one another for room we re-
move every other plant, alternating in
the rows as shown. Plants to be re-.
moved appear surrounded by dotted
circle, They are not very large as this
time, 1t is true, but tender and crisp,
and highly appreciated when they
come on the table. The remaining
| plants appear as shown in center OF
diagram and are now about seven
inches apart each way. They are al
lowed to grow until they again begin
to crowd one another for room, when
they are as large as the forced lettuce
usually found in our markets. The
commercial grower would now gather
and sell the whole crop, but where wa
want n continuous supply, and some
extra large plants besides, we remove
only every other row, leaving the re-
naming plants ten inches apart each
way as shown at the right of the Illus
tration. Just us soon as the bed Is en-
tirely cleared, another lot of plants
lettuce, radishes or whatever they may
be, is put in.-American Gardening.

Work for tho Unemployed.

A suggestion for the amelioration Of
the distress existing among great
masses of the people, which has received
considerable attention, is for the state
and municipal authorities to furnish
employment in the construction and
improvement of the public highways.
The commerce of the country suffers to
the extent of many hundreds of millions
annually on account of defective roads,
especially in the rural districts. Public
works of this nature would be per-
manent investment from which the
country would derive continuous BEN
