Make Butter to Suit the Consumer.

One thing should always be borne in
mind by the person making butter to
sell The butter is for somebody el-s
to eat, and 1t is for your interest TO suit
them, whether it just suits your taste
or not. Habit has a great deal to do
with our likes and dislikes. You may
have been accustomed to sweet-cream
butter; if 80, you probably like that
best. Or, you may have got used to
eating butter made from very ripe
cream, and the butter not washed to
expel the buttermilk, causing it to
have very decided flavor and taste,
and 30 you look upon fine. DIT licate flaw
ored butter &c insipid Or, you may
like little or no sailing or high sailing;
light color or high color. But all this
is of no con- equence. 1t is no matter
what you like. You want to make it to
suit your Gust omers and you want your
customers to be those who are able and
willing to pay good price for what
suits them. If the customer wants
sweet-cream butter, make it; if unsalt-
ed, make it so; if he desires it high
sailed, salt il high, and so on. Always
make it the same for the customers.
They are getting tastes formed which
you can ma it profitable to crafty.
1t is not the province of the maker of
dairy butter 10 try to educate the tastes
of the people who buy butter, but rath-
er to cater to their tastes when he finds
out what they are. If one is making
butter to put on the general market he
wants to make what the market de-
mands and will pay the best price for.
The best way 10 learn the market de-
mand is to have the butter inspe cted
by an expert judge who is dealer and
knows what takes best in the market.
Ask him to criticise it and tell you just
what he thinks of it; and don't get
angry at what he tells you, but try to
profit by what he says. The object OF
this article is to help farmers to make
butter as the best paying customers in
the general market demand.

DairyiDg in Winter.

Winter is coming and it is now sea
sonable to talk about winter dairying
Along in the middle of winter the
dairyman very often complains that the
business does not pay, and especially
if his cows were fresh in the spring.
The small quantity of butter seems in
significant, though it sells for almost
twice as much as in the summer. YET
groceries and other supplies must be
purchased in the winter as we'll as in
the summer, and if we let the dairy
run down we must draw upon the bank
account or run in debt, and in either
case the farm gets the credit of not pay
ing. If we manage to have fresh cows
in the fall, feed them literally on milk
producing food, give free access to pure
water, keep them in comfortable,
healthy, well-ventiated quarters, keep
the milk at an even temperature OF
sixty to sixty-6ve degrees, churn often
enough and with cream at the right
temperature, plenty of good butter can
be made all winter, and it commands
good price usually. Keep the stable
thoroughly clean, dry, well lighted,
well ventilated, and comfortable for a
person to stay in. This is not expen-
sive. 1t is the neglected, poorly
aged stable that COSTS. Cows confined
10 the stable twenty-five to twenty
three hours day must be we'll bedded,
and the stable must be well drained.
Some good absorbent must be provided
10 take up the ammonia and used free
ly. Land plaster can be used for this
very proftably. Dry earth or muck is
good. Each cow should have 1000 Gu
bic feet of air space. Cow stables
ought to be nine or ten feet high
Winter dairying is no business for a
lazy man or one who will neglect it for
ally reason. tut for the active, care.
full, painstaking man, who will attend
to it every day and keep everything
ship-shape snd moving, it is always
profitable. Ensilsge or roots is the
prime food for winter, but if you have
no silo or roots, use slops made of mill
products, clean, bright clover hay or
well-preserved cOrn-fodder, and if shred
ded it will be all the better. If you are
not prepared to do all this, do not de-
pend upon winter dairying for profit

The Feeding Standards.

1t would pay every dairyman to be-
come thoroughly conversant with the
modern feeding standards. A great
deal has been written about them,
much has been said at the farmers in
stilutes about feeding, but hundreds of
farmers do not dare to go it alone. 1t
looks like very simple thing to take a
bulletin and make up we'll balanced
ration, but the great majority of farm
ers do not attempt it. They feel the
need of some guide and @ great many
of them instead of sitting down and
figuring out balanced ration from the
feeds they have and can buy, sit down
and write to some editor, asking him
to do the work for them. So it has be-
come common thing in certain farm
papers to see scores of questions as
what combinations of feeds to use in
given cases. This is doubtless all right
but it would be good practice for every
cattle feeder 10 make up rations from
his feeds, and then test them by feed
ing the COVE, weighing and testing the
milk, and going into the fine work of
cattle feeding. There is usually time
for such work in the winter, and most
OF il can be done in the house where it
l. warm, part of it in the long evenings,
1t would pay vastly better than hold
ing chair down in some village store
or worse place, would train hand, eye
and mind. RI ally such practice is what
every modern dairyman needs. If a

and used by the whole club in common
and then Gf they do not already have
them) write to the Experiment Station
at Burlington for information as to
where they can get the needed books
or bulletins which tell how to test milk
and how to make up rations. Then
they would have something worth talk
Ing about, something that would give
them a good start in the way of getting
hold of some of the good things being
brought out by the agricultural colleges
and experiment stations.
1t does seem too bad to have 30
many farmers lose all the good OF the
millions of dollars being expended by
the government in obtaining and giving
out the most valuable information, and
all for the lack of getting started on
the road to learning. Some men are
80 constituted that it would be very
hard for them to learn much from
books or papers, but what most men
need is to have the starch of prejudice
taken out of them, that sort of thing
