CREAMERY VS.. SEPARATOR.

Correspondence of the Progressive Farmer.
1t is a ~favorite saying with separator
manufacturers that if a person has five
COWS they may safely expect to save
the price of one of their machines in a
few months.
Now, the saying that circumstances
alter cases. is never more truly ap
plicable than with a creamery. While
its warmest advocates do not claim that
all the cream can be secured by it's use
under all circums ances, they do claim
and are prepared to prove the state
ment that with proper conditionsit will
reclaim as great a proportion of but
ter fat from the milk as the separator.
The first and most important condi
ton is that plenty of ice be supplied.
All other conditions of minor import
ance. Even the one which some times
causes trouble-cows long in l~actation
may easily be avoided by having the
cows calve at different times through
out the year. This is the best way to
do any way, as it not only does away
with all trouble with the cream rails
ing, but also relieves the difficulty in
churning when the butter refuses to
come" When the COWS are all long
in lactation a quantity of warm water
added to the milk at time of straining
into the cans will so dilute the milk
that the cream will rise much more
easily and perfectly.
While your correspondent has no in
tention of running down" the separa
tor, as an agent for Dreaming milk, it
is not considered exactly fair to these
pioneer labor savers, the cabinet or
portable creameries, to let such state
ments as the one above noted pass IN
answered.
A few years ago the writer had a De
Laval Baby separator for trial. We
already had a creamery and felt con
WINGED that We were getting all the
cream IS we had ice in plenty and new
mich COWS in the same ratio. How
ever, to satisfy the agent, we consented
to let him set up the machine. We
were at the time making a pound of
butter from 20 pounds of milk. The
first trial with the separator resulted
in a pound of butter from % pounds of
milk, but as the cream from the o
rator got quite sour before churning
owing TO inexperience in ripening
separator creamy another trial was
made resulting a little better, but still
not so we'll as the creamer. When the
following churning from the creamery
showed is a pound of butter from d
pounds of milk, again we we're con.
WINGED that it was good enough for u4.

TO make the purchase of one a money
saving investment. The loss of butter
fat comes in in churning. There is the
leak in any dairy. With the appliances
at hand it is largely a matter of guess
work as to the proper ripening of the
cream to secure all the butter. Agood,
easily applied, reliable test of acidity
would. be a money saver indeed.

Surveyor Ashley came in last
Tuesday from his work of survey
ing out a road from Bonner's Ferry
to Ockonook. This is what is known
as the bench road, as it keeps up

THE WORLD ON WHEELS
Quiet Reigns Among the Railroads on
Washington's Birthday
The Orange Shipments Still Continue to

Yesterday was Washington's Birthday,
and affairs in railroad circles were at a
comparative standstill. Most of the rail-
road offices closed at noon in honor of the
day. being holiday, and the few that re-
mained open seemed to do so more from
habit than desire to transact business.
At the different railroad depots the same
quietness prevailed. All trains were ar
irving and departing on time, but every
employee who could be spared knocked off
work at noon and devoted the remainder
of the day to pleasure and to celebrating
the memory of the Father of our Country.
Opt through the country at the various
| shipping points the condition of affairs
was far different Here all was hustle and
apparent confusion. Quick orders were
being gwen and received, and trucks full
of boxes were being rapidly rolled to the
cars, which, when loaded, would carry
the round golden fruit of Southern Cali
fornia to the bleak East where its exhbi-
ton and very existence would go to prove
the delightful climate of the country from
which it came.
The Santa Fe road is shipping daily an
average of fifty carloads of oranges, and
the Southern Pacific about the same.
