The Western Door COMPANY, the
new enterprise which bid fair 70 take
beneath its wing all Of the impor-
tant lumber manufactures Of the Ais-
sissippi valley, ID . thing Of the past.
The deal has entirely collapsed.
and it 10 claimed there 10 not . pos
sible chanoe Of its revival, for the
present st least. The company
which represented the consolidation
Of seven lumber manufacturing in
dustries had been incorporated un-
der the laws Of Illinois with q capt.
tai stock of $1,000. 900. The head
quarters were designated Is Rock ISL
and. All the stock had been sub
scribed, directors had been elected
for the year, and all was in readiness
70 hold . meeting for the elec4ion Of
ofhcers, when something dropped.
The consolidation had been reached
only after several months Of earnest
agitation. The object of these man
ufacturers joining hands has been
heretofore explained. Briefly, they
hoped to lever the cost Of production
and extend their trade; send repre-
sentatives to the foreign markets, an
undertaking which no one factory
would venture. The plan WAS severely
criticised by the public ~ another
gigantic trust. The manufacturers
say they were accused Of eonspiring
to further reduce the wages OF their
worknen, and at the same time get
such control of tho marketing of
their goods ~ to command almost
any price they saw fit from the pub
lie; abolish competition and all join
hands In q scheme to fim- fam every.
body and anybody. Over in Iowa
there 10 . Congressman who ID inter-
ested in one Of the sash and door
factories which had become . party
to the consolidation. He wss scored
right and Left BY his constituents ~
. supporter of trusts. It Was made
90 uncomfortable for the congress-
man. 20 the story goes, that he lad
his company, which WAS one Of tho
main props in the consolidation,
withdraw. Then came the collapse.
The consolidation experience cost
each one of the factories which had .
hand In It about 1,00o.

The progressive farmer. [volume] (Winston, N.C.) 1886-1904, 1897-10-12

cially marked when the butter is put
away i'm a gashed or haky condition,
by which one side Of the fakes is ak
posed to light and the other side is in
the shade. My practice has always
been to cover the butter in the bowl
with a doubled towel, to protect it
from light, however dull it may be.
''It is not difficult to get rid OF the
patchy appearance Of the butter by
working, if it is cautiously done. No
amount of direct pressure will injure
che texture Of the butter. Il is the
drawing OF the ladle over the butter SO
as to spoil the granular texture, by
which the injury is done. The more
butter is pressed by the ladle or the
roller of the butter worker, the finer
will be the grain, the drier the butter
will be, and the more even the color.
It is a good plan to press out the butter
at the first working and leave it In thin
leaves, as it were; then sprinkle the
finely ground salt, as fine as four,
evenly over the whole surface, and
leave it for the salt to work through
the mass by solution and absorption;
and in twelve hours to turn these leaves
together and then work out the excess
of moisture, or any patchy marbled
color, by frequent folding and pressing,
avoiding the least drawing of the ladle
or the worker across any surface. OF
course as the butter is drained, it is
continually freed from the liquid
(Which should be clear brine, without
a cloud or trace of milk by pouring it
off. Thus the finished butter will be
even in color, the salt will be all dis
solved and evenly mixed through the
mass, and the color will be the same
shade all through"

IHB DAIRY.
} N

A writer on butter making concludes
an article in the Country Gentleman
with these observations on color:
Sometimes impurity in the salt will
make the butter spotty-this disfigur-
ing being the effect of lime in the salt,
and this is a common impurity in the
cheap kinds Of salt. The lime in salt
Of curse will exist mostly as a chic
ride, and this will have the very worst
effect on the butter, bleaching it in
patches or streaks, and giving a eoapy
texture or favor to it. Sometimes
there is gypsum in the salt, and this
has, as l have found, the effect of max.
log round spots in the mass of butter
wherever there is q speck of this sui.
phate of lime. There cannot I've too
great care taken to procure the pdrest
kind of salt for dairy use; it should be
ground as fine as -four, go that if any
impurity does exist in it it may be
evenly spread through the butter, and
thus the color escape injury. Hard
water, too, ia not fit for washing the
butter, on account Of the impurities in
it being mostly lime or gypsum, both
Of which, as said, are injurious to the
butter color.
"As the butter ia a mixture of oils,
and lime has q bad effect on all oily
substances, making an insoluble soar
OF the combination between them, not
only the salt, but the water, should be
perfectly free from this impurity, and
hard water is to be avoided in the dairy
work. Doubtless some of the patchi
ness of butter is due to the water used
In washing the butter.
Light has an effect on the butter
color, as / have found distinctly. The
dairy in which the butter is kept while
making, or resting and for the fnaI
working, should be darkened by shades
so as to avoid this effect. Or the but
ter should be protected by O cover inn
pregnable to the light. The light hal
