Some Cheesemaking Methods.

The first thing which 1 observe in
the manufacture of cheese is cleanli-
ness, not only in the factory, but as
we'll among the different COWS and
their keepers, writes w. l.. McLain IN
American Cheesemaker. All the ami
NAL heat should pass from the morn
ing milk before it is mixed with the
ported without being Jared or jostled
very much. In the factory I receive
no milk that is in cans which are not
daily cleansed and steamed. 1t must
be sweet and pure. Add enough col
oring to give rich color and then
heat the milk slowly to IS deg. and add
diluted rennet. l dilute it to prevent
curd before the rennet is thoroughly
mixed. It takes about five minutes to
mix. l require from % to 35 minutes
for good curd.
If ever I have a floating curd, l draw
off the greater part of the whey and
add some moderately warm water.
This is to weaken the Tactic acid and
reduce the acid to the proper amount
Then heat as before, not heating above
95 deg. in cooking. In cooking the
maker has the curd under his con-
troll, if he has not added too much rem
net. Rennet does not aid in ripening
cheese and l use as little as l can. It
simply changes the milk into a gela-
tinous mass. When the whey is drawn
of the curd should be soft and retain
moisture, thus being under the COM
plete control of the maker, and it must
then cool slowly to IS degs.; then add
salt, but not too heavy. It should be
in proportion to the amount of rennet.
Then the curd is in it's normal state
to commence curing. 1t should be en-
tirely free from all taints and odors.
Should remain in the press from four
to six hours, then be removed and
dressed and placed in press again un-
til next morning.
The curing room should always be
darkened and the same moderate tenn
perature kept, with good ventilation,
not allowing gases and foreign sub
stances to enter the room. The cheese
should be creased we'll and turned at
six in the morning and again at six IN
the evening and again at six in the
morning of each day. Ten to twelve
days are required for my cheese to
cure.
Milk test-A room especially for that
purpose, with milk, acids, and tenn
perature the same. I take a certain
amount of acid Of a certain known
strength to certain amount of milk
at the same temperature. No man can
test correctly without knowing first
how to test the strength of his acid
used in testing. In no two rooms will
the test be the same. as in making
cheese. A person must be his own
guide, and commander of the situa-
ton, In no two days are the results
of making cheese the same. Or in NO
two factories are the results the same
Man, under different circumstances
and conditions. must be master Of the
situation.

tiAVANA'S NEW POSTMA ASTER.

Edward Payne Thompson, who has
just been appointed postmaster at Ha-
yana. has a splendid record in the pos
tai service, and is & thorough master
Of It's details and its requirements. In
1866 he was made assistant postmaster
Of Indianapolis, and held the position
continuously until 1855. In 1889 he
was restored to his old place, and for
the past eight years he has himself
held the position of postmaster, to
which he was appointed by President
Harrison on the death Of Postmaster
Wallace. He organized the carrier SER
vice OF Indianapolis, and no one has
been able to improve upon his work.
The first routes exist today precisely
as he planned them. Mr.. Thompson
was born in 1S41, at Salem, Ind, and
was educated in the college that is now
Depauw. He served in the Indiana
volunteers during the war, and was
afterward connected with the army as
a citizen. Mr.. Thompson's father was
one of the founders of the state of In
diana. He served in the war of 1912
and was with William Henry Harrison

Peasants and Pope.

Two peasants, man and wife, lately

sideration," as the French have it, and
with good reason. They brought with
them f3,2O0 as an offering from a
donor who did not wish to be known.

veying cash. 1t was to be delivered
into his holiness own hands, and all
obstacles imposed by etiquette were

Early Vegetables.

From Farmers Review: Cauliflow-
er should be in as general use as is
cabbage. Its good qualities merit it's
general use. Would you be without
cabbage from year to year? Then why
be without caulifower? Do you grow
and use satisfy, the oyster plant? Try
it. If you have good success and are
as fond of it as some are, you will not
let spring pass without planting it.
If you like celery try to grow it. For
raising early vegetables now is the
time to begin work. Make hot bed
and have goodsized hardy plants ready
for the open ground as soon as the
weather will admit of their being put
out. Place several loads of horse ma
a good wetting. After several days it
will be steaming vigorously and should
be fOrked over into similar pile and
wet again. After this process has been
repeated two or three times, make the
manure into solid bed two feet deep,
place a frame on the bed and fill in
with four inches of good soil we'll pull
verized. Sow your seeds, cover light
ly and keep the soil moist Cover the
frames during nights and cold days
with glass sashes if you have them,
but it not, use the best covering you
have, such as old carpet or wagon
sheet. With this little care you may
have an early supply of vegetables.
They grow better during early sum
mer before it gets hot and dry, and
tomatoes will continue to bear till
frost if irrigated, or if the drouth ~
not severe.

Winter Forcing of Rhubarb.

When at w. w. Rawson's place, at
Arlington, I made inquiries about
forced rhubarb, writes a contributor
to Rural New Yorker. Their plan Is
to put a glass roof over the entire
crop. This sounds more troublesome
than it really is. The process is sim
ply that of erecting roughly-oon-
structed house over the bed. A board
wall is set up, about five feet high in
the back and another wall about four
feet high in the front. Sashes, sup
ported by scantlings, roof the space,
and the ends are boarded up. This
February, or the beginning of March,
according to the season. No heat is
given artiflcially, but the structure
conserves the suns rays, and the in
creased temperature soon causes the
rhubarb to start. Beds treated in this
way should not be under three years
old, to get the best results, and it
would not be wise to use the glass
covering over the bed two seasons in
succession. The plan is much less
wasteful, as far as plant vitality is
concerned, than the lifting of the roots.

most troublesome features of Illinois

b. Reynolds, the agent of the Board of
Health, a day or two since. While

should be noted that there were five
deaths from violence in that month,

What population do you base your
calculations on, Mr.. Reynolds
"Thirty-five thousand is the figure
we calculate the percentage on, but !
am well satisfied that at least another
5000 should be added, and even then
the estimate would be a low one. Why,
one has only to look at the large num-
Der of buildings going up in every di-
rection, as well as those built in the
last year, to see how rapidly people are
coming in. The hotels and lodging
houses are all crowded and there is
hardly half dozen vacant houses for

going up in the Chinese quarter. for
instance. Some of them will hold as
many as a hundred people, not all
