ONE HUNDRED HINTS ON DAIRY
ING.
By the Lac Col. r. D. curtis.

BY the Late Col. T. D. Curtis.
PART SIX
Correspondence of the Progressive Farmer.
81. The sugar in the cream is the
weakest element, and will very soon
turn to Tactic acid. It would be philo,
sophical to suppose that it would be
better to have this change take place
in the cream instead Of in the butter
just as in cheese making, it is better to
have it take place in the Curd instead
Of in the cheese.
90. The temperature for churnipg
ranges from 80 to 65 degrees. according
to conditions. But ordinarily the
range is from So to 81 degrees, while 60
to 60 are the most common.
Sc When the cream is most oily and
limpid, as in June, the lower tempera
lures r the best; when it contains
more hard fats and is more viscous
from the presence of more slbuminous
matter, as in winter, and with COWS
long in milk, the higher temperatures
are the best for churning.
81. The more succulent foods make
the more wstery milk and oily cream,
which churns easier. Hence, ensilage
and roots are favorable to butter max
ing, the oils principally giving butreU
it's favor.
So. When cream is thick and ropy,
and will not churn it is because of the
Presenc9 Of an excess of elbumen,
which is like the white of an egg. This
also prevents the escape of air, gath
cred by c%hurning, which is denoted by
the swelling Of the cream, which be
comes frothy. Too low a temperature
sometimes operates in this way, while
a too high temperature makes the but
ter too soft and porous. 1t is we'll to
raise the temperature of the cream
somewhat higher than the churning
point, and let it lower to it, as fat is a
bad conductor and does not heat as
soon as the fluids in the cream.
SO. In case of trouble about churning,
look first to the temperature. A higher
or lower one may remove the trouble.
Next, see that the cream ia not too
thick. II it is, thin with water of the
churning temperature. Using skim
milk would only be adding more of the
same viscous material. But if the
cream is not viscous, but simply lacks
huidity, the addition of skim milk may
do. Those who object to the use Of
warm water to thin the cream, forget
that milk is 81 per cent. water, cream
about % per cent, and butter 10 to 16
per cent. There are very few things
in nature than do not contain water.
60. The form of the churn is of no
consequence, if it thoroughly agitates
every particle of cream, so that none
collects on the sides, ends or in the cor
ners and does not get churned. Some
kind of revolving churn, without in
ternal fixtures is generally preferred
by experienced butter makers.
81. At the first sign of the separation
Of the butter from the milk, rinse the
cover and the sides of the churn with
water at the churning temperature. AS
soon as the grains of butter are aslarge
as mustard seed, and not larger than
kernels Of wheat, appear, stop the
churb, and reduce the temperature to
IS degrees or below, by pouring in cold
spring or ice water. It is better to let
the cburn stand fifteen minutes or so

STICK TO The FARM.

Daniel Lane, Of BeIlair, n. O., has an
interesting letter regarding the advan-
tages Of farm life in the current mum
Der OF Home and Farm. Mr. Lane says
that the masses who live by cultivat
ing the soil seldom appreciates the real
advantages Of farm life.
t'There are many farmers" he con.
tinues, who find no advantages; and
some who do find them, fail to enjoy

farmers who do not even keep a COW,
and some who keep one fail TO get the
benefits easily derived therefrom.

and are fixing to move to town, for q

TRACING a PACKAGE.

The $4,000 Lost Receipted for at Omaha
by a Clerk, but Afterwards Found Kiss
ing.
OMAHA, Neb., Oct. 17.-The package
containing S14, 900, which a Chicago
bank consigned to Salt Lake bank,
and which disappeared later, has been
traced here, where it is believed a
sneak-thief got it. 1t was delivered
at the transfer depot Thursday by
Clerk Thomas Pheney to Clerk g. B.
Brill. Both of c. Is. Pheney's books show
Brill's receipt for the pouch. Brilrs
book shows no receipt for it and he
does not remember having seen it. An
army of detectives are here looking
after the case. The postal authorities
are being assisted by the Chicago Bond
company, which insured the package.
The postal authorities are zealously
guarding all avenues from which in
formation concerning the matter
might be obtained and it is impossible
to get all the facts. 1t is only certain
that absolutely no trace OF the missing
pouch has been discovered after it left
the hands of Pheney.

The Present Safety Appliances OF No Avail

Cure Rouss' Blindness-Canadian
Independence Movement.

DENVER, Col. Oct. 17.-H. Bratnober,
the noted mining expert, who is re-
turning to London from Alaska, where
he spent several months investigating
the gold fields for the Rothschilds,
said of the prophesy that the Klon-
dixie would produce $40, 900. 900 within
the next year: 1.-The district will
probably produce SIS, 600, 900 or So, 600, 600
during the IL months we are now enter
ing upon. Considering the age of the
camp and the stupendous difficulties
to be overcome, IS, 600, 600 will be high
ly creditable to the camp and that
means that the prophesied $50. 600. COG
may materialize in the course of few
years" Bratnober advises all persons
going to Alaska to go in the spring,
and says prespectors must not expect
too much, as some claims are exceed
ingly good and others, even alongside
Of exceedingly valuable ground, are
worthless. He says the claims already
located can be worked out in five years
New York Elevator Fright.
New YORK. Oct 17.-The problem OF
the safety of persons whose business
makes it necessary for them to use ele-
vators has been brought to the front
by the many elevator accidents of the
last month. Reports of both elevator
builders and insurance companies yes
terday Endorsed the opinion expressed
by Mr.. Finch, of the Fidelity & Casu-
atty company, that the safety devices
now in use are practically of no avail in
nine accidents out of ten. The gravity
Of the situation revealed by this decla-
ration may be estimated when it is
stated that there are about 1000 pas
senger elevators in use in Office and
business buildings, in hotels and apart
ment houses in New York city. 1t is
estimated that they carry more than
,0OO, 900 passengers daily or more
than all the street cars and elevated
sys TENS combined.
May Cure Rouss' Blindness.
NEW YORK, Oct IA new physician
has come to cure Charles Broadway
Rouss' blindness. He is DIR. Guelph
Norman, and he comes all the way
from India to do it. He has been
treating the blind merchant for a week
and Mr.. Rouss' says he can now see the
doctors hand when held before his
eyes. DIR. Norman is an exponent of
the Oriental school of physicians. His
power, he says, is occult and he claims
he could have cured Mr.. Rouss by stay
ing in India just as well as by coming
here, but persons would have placed
30 credence in the cure in that event.
The doctor merely passes his hands
over Mr.. Rouss' head and rut his fore
head with fluid which he says would
alone cure the blindness. Mr.. Rouss
is a multi-millionaire, and has a stand
ing offer of 81, 900, 900 for anyone who
will cure his aff1iction.

How to Make Tea.

More than half the Tea consumed II. the
United States and Canada is OF japanese
growth, yet, the majority of Americans aIlss
parently do not understand how to preFare
it so as to develop the delicious QUANTITIES
which it contains. The japanese Govern
ment has appropriated large fundEto aid
the japanese Tea growers and Tea mer-
chants in prosecuting this educational work.
and it Is hoped that American ladies will
be apt students. The main Bureau of the.
japanese Tea Guild has issued an official
recipe for making japanese Tea, thetransla-
ton of which is as follows:
First.-Use small, dry and thoroughly
clean porcelain teapot
leaves for each cup OF tea desired.
Third.-When using japanese teas pour
on the required quantity of fresh boiled wa
ter, and let stand with closed lid fnom
to minutes. Never boil the leaves. In
order to retain the natural flavor, Japanese
tea leaves should be kept in tight can or
Jar, free from moisture.
Note.-To thoroughly enjoy the natural,
delicate and sweet flavor of japanese Teas,
neither sugar nor cream should be used.
