How to Make Neufchatel cheese.

A French expert at recent dairy
show explains this process as follows
These cheeses are made with equal
parts of milk and cream. A gallon OF
the mixture at the temperature of the
air is set with only one drop of Han
sen s rennet diluted with three drops OF
water. The object is to obtain rich
and smooth curd, therefore use no more
rennet than is absolutely necessary tc
convert the milk and cream very slowly
into curd. The quantity of the rennet
required will vary with its strength,
with the season and temperature and
with the age and condition of the milk.
Warm, poor or stale milk will require
less rennet; cold milk or milk enriched
with cream requires more; the exact
quantity required under varying cir
cumstances can only be ascertained by
experience The curd is formed in "a
hours 1t is then put into a cloth in q
light wooden square frame to drain for
12 hours and gently strained two OF
three times, when the cloth is then
changed and the curd pressed. When
the whey has been pressed out, the curd
is worked smooth in the cloth with a
fat trowel and put into mo1ds lined
with paper, when it can be turned cut
at once and disposed of as soon as the
cheese is sufficiently firm to bear pack.
ing. It will be observed that the prin-
ciples of manufacture of these and other
soft cheeses is directly opposed to that
which regulates the making of hard
cheeses, as follows: First, the quantity
of rennet applied is very small; second,
the temperature is not raised; third,
the curd is therefore a long time in CO
agulating fourth, the curd is neither
cooked nor cut; fifth, the curd is care
fully and gently lifted from one drain
ing cloth to another.

CHEEsEMAKING.
How to Build Factory For Twelve Hui
dred Dollars.

How to Build q Factory For Twelve Hum
dred Dollars.
People have asked me how 1 would
build factory and how much it would
cost, writes Professor John w. Decker
in Field and Home. A good one can be
put up for about 81, 200. If possible I
would build it into the side of hill,
for two reasons: First, to get a cellar
curing room in which an even tempera-
ture can be held, and, second, to secure
an elevated whey tank without it being
necessary to elevate the whey. I would
build basement with two rooms for
fairly dry for the new cheese. New
cheese ought to dry ON the outside for a
few days, until good rind is formed,
and then they may go into room con-
tanning a more humid atmosphere,
where they will dry out less-in fact,
they will cure better. One reason why
our people complain that the cheese is
too dry is that the makers have to make
the cheese firfner to stand the hot curing
rooms, and the cheese is dried still more
in such rooms.
The building above the ground can
be built 10 feet longer to accommodate
boiler room at the end right on the
ground, as it will be necessary to get a
foundation in the ground for the boiler.
The rest of the building above ground
can be divided into making room
and storeroom for supplies. The floor
of the making room should be we'll sup
ported from below to stand the heavy
weight upon it. 1t should also be double
thickness with tar or something SIM
liar between to prevent water running
through. 1t must also be remembered
that the insulation from the warmer
rooms above must be secured for the
curing rooms. The inside of the build
ing should be properly ceiled and
painted.
For ventilation of the curing rooms
run two galvanized iron pipes, one foot
in diameter, through the roof, one for
an inlet of air and the other for an out
let. On top of the inlet have funnel
with vane to it, SO that it will always
swing ON a pivot toward the wind The
air would then flow down the funnel
into the room below, and the air in. the
room would be forced out of the other
tube. For times when there is little air
moving a steam jet may be inserted in
to the outlet. A small jet of steam es-
Gaping will cause a surprisingly strong
current of air that will make partial
vacuum in the curing room, and OF
course air will rush in through the in
let.
For buildings that cannot be built on
side hill l would recommend sub.
earth duct for ventilation.

Yielding Capacity.

There is great difference between
the yielding capacity of the different
breeds both as regards the quantity OF
the milk produced by an average COW
of each kind and the average chemical
composition of sample of the same,
and, to put it shortly, no one would ex.
pect by feeding to convert the milk OF
Dutch COW into quality as good as
that yielded by Jersey-to take the
two extreme cases-and my contention
is that no alteration in the feeding
would even approximately produce this
result or enable a COW to yield more
butter fat in the milk than her natural
constitutional standard.

FEAR OF RAIN IN CUBA.



The Evil Effect of Water Is Not Mere
Superstition There.
The average Cuban is dreadfully
afraid of rainwater. He believes that
drenohing in a rainstorm, followed by
exposure to the rays of the sun, pro-
duces fever-not necessarily yellow fe-
yer, but an attack something similar tc
what is known as swamp fever in Mis-
sissippi or chagres in the isthmus Of
Panama.
The same belief prevails in Central
and South America, but in a greater
degree. On both coast lines of Nicaragua
a light shower is the signal for a gem
eral scampering indoors and disin-
clination to come out again until the
sky is perfectly clear. Up on the high
plateau on which the city of Caracas in
Venezuela is situated and where there
should be little or no fear of fever the
natives are afraid to get even their
faces wet. At the first appearance of a
rainstorm the cab drivers, of whom
there are more than 400, put up oilcloth
screens in front of them and direct the
course of the horses through a couple OF
peepholes, avoiding even slight splash
in the face.
Ali strangers from northern latitudes
visiting Caracas are advised that not
only is rain dangerous, but that it is
not safe to take bath within ten
days after their arrival. Men accustom-
ed to daily plunge find this advice
difficult to follow, especially in such a
warm climate. Most of them disregard
it and find that it does them no harm,
and that it is a superstition based upon
the laziness that follows residence in
an atmosphere SO enervating that the
dogs are too tired to get out of the way
of the horse if the horse wasn't toe
tired to step on them.
The Cuban fear of rain, however, is
based upon experience and is not mere
superstition. New York Press.

CREAMERY BYPRoDucTS.
How an Enormous Amount of Wealth Is
Going to Waste.

Going to Waste.
There are four essentials to success in
each competitive industry, says The
Creamery Journal-abundance of raw
material, economy of manufacture, ex-
cellence of product. finding market
and utilizing the byproducts.
An intelligent dairy community can
be depended upon to furnish the raw
material in abundance if the other
phases of the industry are in good
shape. The dairyman always has rich
land as result of dairying, and he can
raise feed cheaper than the grain farm
er possibly can. Economy of manufao-
ture is crowding close to perfection
after the material is in the butter
makers hands, thanks to the excellence
OF modern creamery machinery and ap-
pliances. Excellence of product is as
sured with a suitable butter maker and
the conditions previously named as they
should be and can be. Finding a market
for butter is now, owing to the brisk
competition of solicitors, changed to
the market seeking the butter and bid
ding for it with ali imaginary induce
ments.
We find creameries we'll managed in
the first three particulars, and yet some
of them are in trouble. 1t is because
the byproducts are not given due con-
sideration. No flour mill can exist now
unless the byproducts are marketed
we'll
Iowa alone is now making 1000, 600
pounds of creamery butter day. This
means in round numbers 10000, 900
pounds of skimmilk The waste of this
milk at the low value of 10 cents per
100 is waste of $50, 900 for each and
every passing day.
How can this waste be saved? 1t can
be made into artificial ivory, bone and
eelluloid, and there is a factory in the
United States converting it into these
substitutes, and we have billiard balls,
combs checks, buttons, etc., made from
the casein of skimmilk, but this one
factory is about enough of its kind.
Skimmilk can be made into sizing for
paper, and in the eastern part of the
country there are several factories tax
ing the entire skimmiIk of the adjacent
creameries and making this sizing, or
artificial glue But skimmilk is too
bulky to permit of shipping any consid-
cradle distance for this or for any other
purpose.
1t can be made into meat ty feeding
it to young animals, and this is the only
practical way to save it in the great
dairy localities of the Mississippi val
ley, but to save it for this purpose it
must be saved, not spoiled. The skim
milk as returned this time of year from
the average creamery is rotten stuff, not
fit for food to any animal. By unani-
nous verdict it is agreed that it has lost
at least half its value. If half the
creameries of Iowa return this kind Of
milk, it follows that the loss is $40, 900
a day for Iowa alone, and from this one
cause. There are creameries that do not
spoil the skimmilk. Some of them pas
teurize the skimmilk and return it
sweet. 1t costs little to do this, but
the looks of young calves are testimony
TO its merits,

A man in the darkness of hopeless dis
ease is of all men most miserable. When
doctors and medicines innumerable have
been tried and found wanting, and loving
friends vainly urge upon him the food he
cannot eat and which brings him no nour-
ishment or strength, what is to be done?
Men and women who have sunken so
far into weakness and disease that the
whole body seems to be permeated and
poisoned by it have found health,
strength and vigor through the transform
ing, electrifying power of that wonderful
Golden Medical Discovery" which DIR.
R. V. Pierce, of Buffalo, N. Y, proffered,
thirty years ago. to sick and suffering hui
manity
During all the years since then this mar
velous Discovery - has been building up
weak and debilitated constitutions by its
extraordinary influence upon the human,
nutritive system. 1t gives the digestive or
ganism keen power and capacity to appro-
pirate every lifegiving element from the
food taken into the stomach and trans
forms it into rich, highly vitalized blood
and healthy flesh, bone, sinew and nerve
fiber.
Consumption in all its earlier stages is
arrested and counteracted by the tissue
building, flesh making, life-promoting pow
er of this grand medicine and there is no
darkness of bodily ai1rnent SO dense but it
will l-shed upon the sufferer the light of re-
newed hope.

Rest For Milking Cows.

1t is we think, fault of some of the
best breeds of mixers that they cannot
be easily dried off, even when they ap-
proach the time for dropping their calves
An interval of at least month, and six
weeks is still better, should be left to
the COW, in which she should have an
entire rest. Milk is not good for food
for varying periods before parturition,
depending much on the age and condi-
tion of the COW and the kind of food she
receives and digests. A COW thin in
flesh may require eight or even ten
weeks rest before beginning milking
again. While we believe that young
heifers after their first calf should be
kept in milk until within month or
six weeks before the next calf is due, it
is rather to get them into the habit of
long milking than because the small
amount they give will be worth the OK
ira feed and labor required to secure it.
Unless to supply milk for household use
in winter, there is little advantage in
milking the COWS that calved in the
spring longer than January of the fol-
lowing year. From eight to II weeks
with comparatively little grain feed
will leave the COW in better condition
for next year than will crowding her
stomach with grain, so as to force milk
production until near the time her next
calf is due to be dropped. This last will
possibly increase the milk flow when
the COW springs her bag for the coming
calf, and thus cause garget, which is
an evil that the best mixers are always
most likely to suffer from. Until near
the time of parturition the COW should
be fed enough grain to make her gain
in flesh. But for two weeks before she
calves this grain feed should be with
held, lest it stimulate the milk flow too
much. After the calf is week old and
the danger of Inflammation has passed
the grain feeding may be resumed, taxi
ing care not to give grain feed in such
quantities as to fatten the COW rather
than increase her milk how.-American

The dairy business is far more over
done by the average" COW than from
any other cause. The trouble is she eats
and exists upon mans farm to do
just half what is required Of her, and
eats as much good food in the year as
her betters The amount of milk this
average cow gives is 8, 100 pounds year
ly, and it should be as many quarts of
better milk. If one looks at this aver
age COW critically, the signs are too
often reversed from what they should
be-viz, her head is too large to cor
respond with her udder, her shoulders
wider than her hips and her tendency
is to put tallow upon her caul and not
