Making Butter in winter.

With care in making the proper ar
rangements good butter can readily be
made in winter, and the cost be not
materially increased. There must be
fresh cows Good warm, dry shelter.
plenty of good food and water, proper
arrangements for handling milk and
cream so as to secure the desired tenn
perature from cream raising and butter
making. and with these essentials good
butter at only a slightly increased cost
per pound can be made. But the quail
ity must be good to make the most out
of it, as the consumer demands good
butter in winter the same as in sum
mer, and the price is largely determine
ed by the quality at all seasons.-Mas-

WEEKLY MARKET LETTER
downing, hopkins s. Compsny's Review
of Iraae.

The past week has proved an I'M
steady one in the wheat markets.
While there has been no weakening il
the basic position of wheat, and while,
indeed, the position today is stronger
than week since, the bears have upon
two or thee occasions raided the mar
kets and broken prices. To our minds
these fluctuations prove nothing against
the deal. We don't know but prices
will be lower, and are not talking about
what will be the results, but we writc
of the foundation of the markets, and
dealers must manage the rest. The
winter wheat, usually two-thirds of
1 the aggregate crop, is depleted to
smaller remains in farmers hands than
for years. Consumption must soon re-
sort to spring wheat and that reserve
is undoubtedly small. We are break.
ing away slowly from foreign prices
and before harvest it will be home
demand and supply.
According to expert testimony many
of the believers in wheat who have
been watching the upward march Of
values for the past two months have
been rather doubtful of its stability, il
view of the cheapness of other cereals
and their product. The fact that corr
has entered the list as "A competitor TO
bread consumption led to a halt in thu
advance and many traders were great,
influenced by this circumstance. TIL,
argument is made that -four is being
adulterated to such an extent with corr
meal, and the call for corn meal is in
creasng at such rate that the demanc
for cash wheat will gradually becom,
curtailed, and, with a lessening of tn,
demand, perforce decline in price
One writer in discussing this phase o
the wheat situation asserts that such
use for corn meal and other substitu
tions for wheat must be only credite,
to restricted areas. The theory ad
yanced is that poor people who woul
most likely use this adulterated articl
as a human food do not buy flour, an
hence the first argument falls to tn
ground.

THE SEED Is THE VITAL THING

Planting must be begun right, else no
amount of cultivation OF fertilizer can pre-
vent the crop being a failure. The hrst
step Is the selection of the seed. DO not

that have a reputation behind them. The
most reliable seeds grown in this country
are Ferry's seeds. Wherever seeds are
sown the name Of d. NJ Ferry 4 Co, OF
