are meeting larger demand for some few pro-

Filled Cheese.

The following article, describing the
manner in which filled cheeseis made,
is from The Oconomowoc Free Press:
/ Just at this time when the legisla-
ture Is In session and there are urgent
requests sent in to that body from
all portions of the state to take some
action in regard to the cheese indus
try, it may not be amiss to tell SOME
thing of the filled cheese and the evils
that arise from its consumption.
The cheese industry is quite an inn
portant one north of Oconomowoc
and many around here are familiar
with it's manufacture.
Good cheese has always been recog-
nized as an excellent and wholesome
article of food. But filled cheese
is said to be no5 only unpalatable,
but is also positively injurious to the
health. 1t is made in this way: Milk
In it's normal state contains about
four per cent. of butter fat; now to
make filled cheese the milk is put
through separator and all, or near
ly all, of this butter fat is removed,
leaving only the liquid from which
has been removed it's richest constitu-
emit. The milk that remains is prac-
tically skim milk, and from that the
poorer cheese was at first made. But
it was found very deleterious to the
health, as for some reason it was
found to be highly indigestible. The
butter fat was wanting to make
it digestible. The willy filled cheese
makers cast about to find something
that was cheap to take the place of
the butter tat and they are now
using cotton seed Oil in it's place.
They thought that the oil would make
the cheese more readily digestible, but
as matter of fact it is said that the
use Of the oil is simply another fact or
that makes the filled cheese more ln-
furious. The heat of the body is
about SO degrees and the oil is only
readily digestible at a. greater heat
than that, and it stays inthe stomach,
and acts as an irritant. 1t is thus
evident that the filled cheese is del
eterious to health because it is a
skim-milk produce, in itself indigest-
IDLE, and again because in its man.
ufacture now cotton seed oil is used,
which is only not readily indigestible
but acts as an irritant.
1t is evident that the legislature
should take some action to protect
consumers against this fraud.

ITO the past. Last Friday night in
ais fight with Tommy Ryan, he en-
tered the ring in a state of intoxica-

put up fight in his old time style,
but the fight had to be stopped at the
end of three rounds and given to Ryan.

Brotherly Feeling Of Ants.

A naturalist who has studied the
ways of ants, writes Olive Thorne
Miller, found that some of them feel
friendship and pity for suffering, and
he tells it thus: zone day, watching
a small column of these ants, 1 placed
small stone on one of them to secure
it. The next that approached, as
snon as it discovered its situation, ran
backward in an agitated manner, and
soon communicated the intelligence
to the others. They rushed to the
rescue. Some bit at the stone and
tried to move it. Others seized the
prisoner by the legs, and tugged with
such force that I thought the legs
would be pulled off; but they per-
severed until they got the captive
free. ] next covered one up with a
piece of clay, leaving only the ends
of its antennae projecting. 1t was
soon discovered by its fellows, which
set to work Immediately, and by Bit
ing off pieces of the clay soon liber-
ated it. The excitement and ardor
with which they carried on their un.
tagging exertions for the rescue of
their comrade could not have been
greater if they had been human
beings"

TIE VALUE OF STRAW.

The abundance and cheapness of
straw do not justify its waste, for
some good, profitable use may be
found for all of it, writes ]. NJ. Stahl.
If fed in connection with cottonseed
or linseed meal, malt sprouts, bran,
etc., which are rich in the elements in
which it is deficient, it has fair feed
ing value. The potential feeding
velue OF oat straw equals that of sixty
five per cent. and wheat straw fifty
FIVE per cent. of it's weight of average
meadow hay. But to make the poten-
tial feeding value of straw near actual
it must be cut, moistened and mixed
with such feeds, rich in protein, as are
enumerated above. Cattle fed on
straw alone, OF nearly SO, cannot pay
anything for the straw, for it is SO de-
ficient in the muscle formers that an
animal cannot digest enough straw
alone to grow any, or even to hold its
own. However, if fed as just stated
with such feeds as will make we'll
balanced ration, straw has an actual
feeding value far too great to justify
the waste of any Of it.
If it is not possible to feed all the
straw to good advantage, it has value
for bedding and for shelters thai
max es it unjustifable to waste it. Al
straw is a very poor conductor o.

HEMM1Na TABLE LINEN.

A dainty woman will never hem
her table linen by machine, but she
will hem it by hand with the neatest
possible stitches. Napkins and table.
cloths now have half-inch hens. The
very narrow hens even for napkins
are thing of the past. Crests and
initials consequently have to be
placed higher on the napkins, and the
napkin when laundered is folded larg-
er. Tablecloths should be marked at
each end two feet from the edge of the
table, which will bring the design a
few inches from the centerpiece. The
newest linen has plaid center, with
either a simple flower border OF
plain band. Elaborate centerpieces
never look so we'll as when placed on
a plain surface. Round centerpieces
continue to be used with the round
dolies for luncheons. They are more
beautiful than ever, and many are
made of real lace, with only the
centers of linen, which are embroid-
cred with the crest or initials. Pure
white centerpieces are the most popu-
lar. Chicago imes-Herald.

good quality Of being an excellent abb

while giving the animals comfortable

Portable shelters can be made out OF
straw and, while they are not so dur

wood, they are within the financial
reach of many that cannot we'll build
expensive shelters. Likely the most
profitable use to which straw can be
put is to form a comfortable shelter
for farm animals that otherwise would
be exposed to the seventies of the
winter. Finally, rotted straw has a
fertilizer value that makes it highly
profitable to save it carefully. y.-Ameri-

Moths.

Moths are not generally valued.
Yet there are few people who really
spend time and money to collect them.
The moth hunter goes out with net
and bottle of chloroform. Moths are
very fond of sugar, and are sometimes
caught by what the professionals call
"sugaring."
Sugar is dissolved in beer and ap-
plicd to the trunks of trees, and when
light is thrown on the tree the moth
will drop into the net beneath. The
eggs of the moth are gathered by
many and carefully guarded through
all stages until the moth is developed.
Some moths lay only one egg, othes
two or three on the plant they love
best. Some moths lay hundreds of
eggs on one leaf. York Mercury.

Mohair and alpaca are regaining
their former popularity.
Dull jet in spangles and beads is
used with Grape trimmings.
It is announced that the headgear Of
the New York girl will be enormous
this winter.
Moreen is finding increasing favor
with fashionable dressmakers and tail
ors as skirt lining.
Nearly all tho hats are overladen
with trimming, giving their wearers a
tophcavy appearance.
Little stools and tables are made of
highly finished wood, the tops and
legs painted in landscapes or floral
pattern.
Numbers of little narrow ruf1es set
over the tops of the sleeves and over
the shoulders of thin dresses are pretty
and becoming.
Persian effects promise to be popu'
lar in high-grade goods. In order to
obtain the proper rough appearance
the figures are raised in combinations
of blue and brown. black and red,
light and dark shades of any color,
the figures having the silken sheen SO
noticeable in crepons.
Yokes are becoming feature Of the
fashion. Sometimes they are OF vel
vet or guipure with bodice OF silk
shirred to them, and quite as often
they are of fine linen or null and lace.
This is of quality and variety suited to
the occasion on which the bodice is
intended to be worn.
