Quick Curing Cheese.

The following observations amen,
the procuring OF Quick-curins
cheese are made in q bulletin issued
by the Ontario agricultural college
The bulletin, 1t may be explained
was issued for the benefit of factory
authorities.
l. Accept nothing but pure, sweet
milk.
2. Heat to Sc degrees and. then
make rennet test.
3. Set the milk when the rennet
test is about Is seconds, or at su1hc-
lent ripeness 50 that the curd will
dip" in about two and a half hours.
4. Use SUFFICIENT rennet to coagulate
the milk in about twenty minutes.
This will require from three to four
ounces of standard rennet. (Be sure
that your rennet is all right)
5. Do no cut more than three time;
unless the milk is over ripe. Retain
plenty of moisture in spring curds fol
an early market Our spring cheeses
are usually too dry and harsh.
6. Heat slowly to So degrees-not
shove this temperature, as it is desir'
able to retain moisture
2. Dip at the first appearance Of
acid. II the acid does not show on the
hot iron, use the alkali test. Do not
leave the curd in the whey more than
three hours, even il the hot iron indi.
Gates mo acid" II you test with the
alkali you will find plenty of acid at
the end of three hours, provided the
temperature is kept up to SO degrees
The hot iron is not always reliable at
this point.
8. Mill early-as soon as the curd
becomes meaty and shows about one
inch on the hot iron.
8. Hand-stir sufficiently to improve
favor, but not enough to lose all the
moisture.
10. Salt at the rate of about two
pounds to 1000 pounds of milk, and
before the grease runs teo freely. Al
low the curds to stand longer in the
salt. You will thus save butter fat,
and will not be troubled with greasy"
curds. Many are sacrificing a good
deal of butter fat for the sake of get.
ting a CLOSE" cheese.
II. Keep the temperature of the
curing room at about 20 degrees, and
thus hasten the curing.
II. Do not allow a cheese to 60
into the curing room which is not
nicely finished, nor one to leave it un-
til it is at least two weeks old. Not
a few are running their reputation by
shipping curd to their customers. The
writer heard of a case this spring
where cheese was made on Saturday
and shipped the following Tuesday
Such a practice cannot be too strongly
Is. To sum up: In order to obtain
fat, meaty, quick-curing cheese which
will be fit to eat in about a month
after making, use plenty of good rem
net; leave sufficient moisture in the
curd; salt lightly: keep the tempera-
ture of the curing room up to 20 de-
grees, night and day; and keep the
cheese in the curing room for at least
two weeks.

Prof. Irby of North Carolina State
College, furnishes the following to the
Progressive farmer:
We believe in small well-tilled farms;
that the soil must be fed as we'll as the
owner, so that the crops shall make
the farm and the farmer rich.
We believe in thorough drainage, in
deep blowing, and in labor saving i'm
plements.
We believe in good fences, barns
conveniently arranged, good orchards
and gardens, and plenty of home raised
hog and hominy.
We believe in raising pure bred stock
or in grading up the best to be gotten;
they equal the thoroughbreds.
We believe in growing the best va
rieties Of farm crops and saving the
choicest for seed.
We believe in fertilizing the brain
with phosphorus as we'll as applying it
to the soil.
We believe in the proper care and
application of barn-yard manure.
We believe that the best fertilizers
are of little value unless accompanied
by industry, enterprise and intelli-
genee.
We believe in rotation, diversified
ton and thorough cultivation Of crops
We believe that every farm should
own a good farmer and that every good
farmer will eventually own a good
farm.

when to Water Plants.

Should plants be watered during sun
shine? Why not, If they need it? The
watering of the plant should be gov

Is, water a plant when 1t does require
II. says a writer in American Garden
Ing. From my own experience l have
never had any bad results from water
Ing flowers during sunshine. any more
than in dull weather. During sunshine
and bright weather the evaporation
from most plants is more excessive
than In dull weather; consequently
plants call for more nourishment in
the form Of water, and If the plants are
growing fast, and the pots are full Of
roots, often find it necessary to water
them three or four times a day. Air,
-1n and light are important factors in
building up the plant, and one is not
much use without the other. Water
containing soluble matter is absorbed
by the roots and travels through the
plant as crude sap, passing upwards to
the leaves: there it forms a combina-
from the air, then by the action of sun
and light is refined and digested. AS
the sun plays such an important part
in the disintegration las it were) Of the
food of the plant, cannot see how it
would have any injurious effect to
water plants during sunshine; but
would look at it as thing essential If
the plants needed it. always aim to
nave watering done early in the morn
ing or about three or four O'Clock in
the afternoon. for the simple reason
that it facilitates the work, as well as
economies the water; but as said be-

needed 1t. and would consider I was
helping nature by doing so.

Winter Protection.


I have not had a great deal of sue
cess in the cultivation of flowers and
roses, but have a very simple plan Of
protecting them: lay down the rose
and cover it with lezves, and when
uncover it in the spring I find that it
is quite fresh. In some instances the
buds have begun to shape before the
leaves are taken on. One season q keen
frost came and they we're set back. and
We had no roses that year. now adopt
the plan of driving a stick down along
side the bush. l then gather the
branches together, tie them with
string. and put hoop around
the bottom. put ordinary rye straw
around the inside Of that hoop and
then put on another hoop around the
top: and I find that there u sumeient
protection to enable them to come out
all right. NJ Erapevines cover with
earth. Three years ago l took them
mp: they started very early: there was
. late frost and I had no fruit that
year. The next year l covered them
with evergreens, and had not much
more success. Last year allowed them
to stay up on the trellises and take
their chances. and had q better crop
before the frost came than l had had
for the last three years. II you have Z

Draft of the PloW.

Our experiment stations are looking
into almost everything and among 9TH
er things endeavoring to determine the
amount OF the draft of the pillow that
is used for different parts Of the work.
At the University Farm Of New York
1t was found that SIS per cent of the
total draft is used for cutting the fur
row. SO per cent in overcoming the
friction of the sole and land slide, and
but twelve per cent in turning the fur
row. In 1867. Hon. J. Stanton Gould
found that So per cent was expended
in cutting the furrow, So per cent in
overcoming the friction, and ten per
cent in turning the furrow. Pulver-
izing is done altogether by the mold
board in turning the furrow, and hence
the importance of having the mold
board do precisely what the farmer
wants at particular time. Really ev-
cry plow should have three or four diff
ferent mold boards; one if it is desired
to throw the furrow fat and cover up
rubbish. another if it is desired to kink
the furrow. leaving it rough as possible
in fab blowing. and perhaps one or
two more covering purposes between
these two extremes. We think there
will be good deal more attention paid
to matters Of this kind in the future
than in the past. as farmers are really
but beginning to study the subjec, az
tillage.
