SALTlNG THE BUTTER.
Interesting Experiments Conducted by q
Wisconsin Expert.

interesting experiments Conducted by o
Wisconsin Expert.
H. C. Curtss, of Wisconsin, gives his
IDEAS of sailing butter in this way: II
assume that it is generally considered
that butter abSorbs salt, which it does
not. In proof whereof l will state that
some two months ago l worked up a
pound of butter into a solid ball with.
out salt. This butter has been kept
immersed in strong brine until the
present time, when find on cutting it
open no trace of salt, except near the
outer lrface of the ball. Salt proper
ly exists in butter only as dissolved in
the water remaining in butter; if found
in the butter in an undissolved state
objection is made by any good judge OF
butter. From this reasoning 1T will be
seen that the amount of salt in butter
depends somewhat upon the amount OF
water in the butter when the salt is
added. Let us suppose we have guam
tity of drained graduated butter with
twenty-siX per cent OF water in it
Our object is to salt only half the
water, but that is an impossibility;
we must salt all the water in the but.
ter. Hence, if we are required to have
one ounce to the pound in the finished
product, twice Us much salt must be
taken, for half of it will come out in
exudcd brine. There is no danger in
getting in too much salt provided no
moro salt is put III than will dissolve.
Sometimes twenty pounds of buttet
after sailing in tho granular state will
exude three or fourquarts on revolving
the churn and working into a mass, and
sometimes more than one pint The
difference is undoubtedly in the fine
ness or coarseness of the granules when
the salt is added"

"'GATORED MULES"

The Washington News says that a

a traveller. ! had been staying at
Ocala, and finally agreed with sew
eral friends to go hunting in the south.
Some distance from town we located
upon a small stream Astounding in
game. After pitching camp went for
a walk, and before long ] found a
gator hole. From the strong musty
odor issuing from it, knew the owner
must be at home.
decided to capture him, and called
my companions. Several times we
rammed long pole into the burrow.
Finally we heard snap like the re-
port OF gun, and the pole remained
fast. The gator had seized it, We
tried vainly to pull him out. Then
some one suggested that we try our
camp mule. The mule was led down
to the hole, chain fastened to him
and the pole, and the frightened an
imal was started
There was crcaking of chains, q
roar, and an alligator fully seven feet
in length came out with rush, as
the mule started on wild run for the
road.
The saurian'S teeth were sunlSen so
deeply in the pole that he could not re-
lease himself, and away went mule,
pole and all. The alligator spun
round, kissing like steam engine;
but he held on, while the mule, think
ing himself pursued, Snorted and ran.
We followed. Into the main street Of
Ocala flew the mule and his queer
load Completely exhausted, he was
stopped by party of men near the
post Office.
The gator was dead. We skinned
md stuffed him. The mule recovered,

STERlllZING MILK.
simple Apparatus Which VIII Destroy
Injurious Germs.

Injurious Germs.
At the request of the secretary OF
agriculture the chief of the bureau OF
animal industry has furnished the fol-
lowing simple directions for the sterili.
zation of milk:
The sterilization of milk for chill
dren, now quite extensively practiced
in order to destroy the injurious
germs which it may contain, can be
satisfactorily accomplished with very
simple apparatus. The vessel contain
ing the milk, which may be the bottle
from which it is to be used or any other
suitable vessel, is placed inside Of
larger vessel of metal, which contains
the water If bottle it is plugged
with absorbent cotton if this is at
hand, or in it's absence other clean cot.
ton will answer A small fruit jar,
loosely covered, may be used instead of
bottle. The requirements are simply
that the interior vessel shall be raised
about half an inch above the bottom Of
the other and that the water shall
reach nearly or quite as high as the
milk. The apparatus is then heated on

and kept in cool place The milk

foar hours. A temperature of $50 de-
grees maintained for half an honr is
sufficient to destroy any germs likely
to be present in the milk and it is
found in practice that raising the
temperature to 1855 degrees and then
allowing it to stand in the heated
water for half an hour insures the
proper temperature for the required

MEMORIES.

In tho sweet, dearest, coolest nook
There was little iron hook
Within cloiet, locked with key,
But dearcr than realm to mel
For there one little golden strand
From her dear forehead touched my hand.
il was so long since last pressed
That little hand my souls unrest
Had made me walk In paths that knew
Her footsteps-whcrc the yiolets grew.
But violets or Gods changeful skies
Were never sweet as her dear eyesl
have writ much Of her, but stu
My lonely life sho seems TO fill
With kindest blessing. Old or fair,
For inc she bath the same sweet hair
That blew about her brow long since,
When she was queen and was princel
That little waif-so golden, sweet
How did 1t make my sad heart beatl
For in the awful loneliness
heard the rustling OF her dress,
And rs the blossoms fell they seemed
Like angels that OF her had dreamedl
was u simple, silent fool
And watched her going home from school.
And yet, when came the rain n bit,
gladly sheltered her from IL
And walked with her and said sweet
words
While sang the free sweet mocking birdsl
Hero on this little iron hook
Hangs her dear dress still must look
Upon II as did OF yore
And think how once that dress she wore,
And think how she loves mo no more
And waits expectant ut the door!

MADE HIS OWN WHEEL.
A Maryland Mountain Boy Who Was Not
Baked for Want of Money.

"Thcy come high, but we must have
'cm," is what John Wayne, Il Lainga-
more mountainccr, thought when he
saw hundreds of wheclmen riding over
the smooth roads of Frederick county,
Md, several months ago. John is
only sixteen years old, but h2 thought
he would be able to ride q bike. All
that was necessary WINS to get the
"bilic," and that he made up his mind
to do.
He soon learned that wheel would
cost him anywhere from 500 to $3.50,
and that was little more than he felt
able to pay. His funds were II title low,

time. The temperature should not be
raised above 1876 degrees, otherwise the
taste and quality of the milk will be
impaired.
The simplest plan is to take a tin
pail and invert a perforated tin pie
plate in the bottom, or have made for
it removable false bottom perforated
with holes and having legs half an
inch high, to allow circulation of the
water The milk bottle is set on this
false bottom, and sufficient water is
put into the pail to reach the level of
the surface of the milk in the bottle.
A hole may be punched in the cover of
the pail, n cork inserted, and chem
ical thermometer put through the cork.
so that the bulb dips into the water.
The temperature can thus be watched
without removing the cover. If pre-
ferred an ordinary dairy thermometer
may be used and the temperature test
ell from time to time by removing the
lid. This>is very easily arranged, and
is just as satisfactory rs the patented
apparatus sold for the same purpose.

KEEP THE COWS CLEAN.


DO 1t by building Uneven Managers and
Even Drops.
There Is no reason why herd Of
dairy cows should suffer in appearance
because covered with filth from fall to
bpring. The immediate cause for this
trouble is floors without drops, or that
are too long to match the individual
animals. TO vary the distance between
n munger and drop by having the gut
tcrs in uneven positions, would make
an untidy appearance In the stable be-
sides increasing the labor Of clearing
it, but IL is not impossible to make
each manger or pair OF hangers, NOV
able, SO that each COW, or two cows OF
the same length, may be accommodate
ed with IL length of floor exactly
adapted TO their requirements. To
bring this about. let each manager bot
tom be firmly nailed to two strips OF
scantling eighteen inches long, which
fit into corresponding slots in the stable
1oor-slots long enough to- permit the
movement forward and backward Of
the managers. A simple hook or bolt
made of wood or iron and attached to
the manager in front will firmly hold 1t
In the desired position. If the
managers arc not sufficiently heavy
to tie to, or IL stanchons arc used, an
upright, two by three inches, may con-
meet the manager with the ceiling above
by means OF u simple fastening, so that
the tic will be solid.

room The silage is shoveled in to a
whcclbarrow and is w heelcd and
dumped in front of each COW, the long
level feed floor making this as easy as
running a car on track. Above the
COW stable is the room for hay and for
age, which is all cut fine by horse
power, and distributed over the room
by a carrier attached to the cutter,
which sits in the center of the long
room, When used, after filling to one
end, it is turned around and run until
the op posite end is filled. There is

the use of basket or fork The par

Back of this, extending to stills of stable,
there is Il trap door the length that the

back of the cows hind feet for the ma
nuro to drop through; this space has
door, simply u board eight inches wide,
which is hinged on the side farthest
from the COW, and let down when the
cows go in or out, and then raised and
kept up for the manure to drop
through, while the, cows are in the
stable. This space must be regulated
to each pair of cows, which is easily
done by using more or less of the three
inch strips next to the solid floor. Tho
cows stand with their hind feet and
their back parts over the grating.
The manure pit extends partly under
the cows, and will hold more than Il
months manure. The cows are held
