That the amount OF fat in milk Is a
true measure OF the cheese-produeing
value OF the milk is the conclusion
drawn from $50 experiments and near
Nv u. 600 analyses by L. l.. Van Slyke,
OF the New Work state station W bS).
II was found that there IL uniformly
about one pound Of fat for every two
thirds OF a pound OF casein in normal
milk. There is, however, an actual
difference In the amount of both, fat
and casein contained in the milk OF
different herds, SO that the system OF
paving for the fat in milk Is the cor
rect method for cheese as well as for
butter making, and IL was found ca
pable of practical application as re-

simple Yet Emcacious Device for Prevent
ing Dampness.

INK nhmpntss-
Farmers often have trouble during
heavy rains In keeping their cisterns
from overlooking. A dampness near
the house causes damp, wet cellar,
which should be strenuously avoided.
The accompanying illustration, from
n sketch by j. w. Caughey. presents q
plan for avoiding such OVERLOOKING
cisterns. A forked pipe is fastened
into the rain gutter or receiver from
the roof. AT the junction of the two
arms or switch pipes there Is a shut-oh
which is operated by wire rod which,
as it appears in the illustration, turns
the obstruction plate within the pipe
and stops its entrance into the cistern
when the latter Is considered full
enough. The other pipe carries the
