Some cheesemakins Methods.

The first thing which / 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
evenings milk and then it is trans
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 a rich color and then
heat the milk slowly to IS deg. and add
diluted rennet. I dilute it to prevent
curd before the rennet is thoroughly
mixed. It takes about five minutes to
mix. I require from rs to IS minutes
for a good curd.
If ever l have a floating curd, I 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 hea. as before. not heating above
IS deg. in cooking. In cooking the
maker has the curd under his con-
troll, II he has not added too much rem
net. Rennet does not aid in ripening
cheese and I use as little as I 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 its 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 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 well 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.

Winter Forcing Of Rhub.rb.

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 a roughly-con-
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
covering is put ove the rhubarb in
February, or the beginning of March.
according to the season. No heat ID
given artihcially. 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.

Bottled MILK I'm Now York.

The demand for bottled milk is
growing in New York. and to all ex-
cept the cheap trade milk is supplied
in this form, says Country Gentleman.
The milk is bottled both in the city
after 1t has been shipped in forty-quart
cans, and in the country on the farm.
The hfghest-class diaries have their
milk bottled on the farm. but cheap
imitators Of them bottle 1t in the city.
When bottled on the farm, one-third
Of the contents Of the bottle usually
shows cream. and as many customers
Judge their milk by the amount of
apparent cream on the top. this meth
cd should prove the most satisfactory.
It may cost a tribe more to shin a
box Of forty quart bottles to the city
than a can of forty quarts; but in the
end the milk is apt to be better and
is less likely to be tempered with. One
of the most successful dairy companies
in the city seals the top Of the milk
bottle at the dairy, and advises its Gus.
toners to refuse to take any with the
seal broken. This is certainly an ef-
fective way Of getting ground the
small retailer who frequently waters
his milk. The standard price of milk
has been 8 cents a quart here for many
years; but there are plenty Of stores
which sell milk at S and 6 cents q
quart. This Is all can. milk, and is
never sold for less than z or 8 cents in
bottles.

Congregational Committees Thanked
for ImproYements-Rep ON
the Library Project.

The regular monthly meeting Of the
North Capitol and lexington Citizens AS
sociation was held last night at Lincoln
Avenue and r Street northeast.
The meeting, which was largely attend
ed, was presided over by the president of
the association, A. r. Seryen, and a. G.
Tingley acted as secretary. On recommen-
dation OF the executive committee it was
ordered that letter be sent to the chair
men of the Senate and House committees
on the District of Columbia, and also the
chairmen of the appropriations committees,
thanking them for the favors shown Eek
ington in the distribution of District appro-
priations and other legislation.
The chairman Of the membership COM
mittee reported that the following new
members had been enrolled since the last
meeting: DR.. C. J. Wallace, G. H. Mark
ward, Charles Kundare, j. a. Davis, jr,
and W. l.. Guteins.
Salon C. Kemon, chairman of the COM
mittee on mail facilities, reported that he
had conferred with Postmaster Willett re-
garding the distribution and collection of
mail in lexington, and was assured that
the wishes of the citizens would be compli-
ed with as far as practicable
A petition was signed by all the members
of the association present asking that the
mail deliveries and collections for Ecking-
ton be hereafter made from the new station
to be opened On G Street northwest be-
tween Sixth and Seventh Streets and that
mail be no longer sent TO and delivered
from the East Capitol Street station.
Charles E. Kern, chairman of the Libra
ry committee, reported that he thought 1t
wise to advise the association that it had
been decided to take no steps regarding the
erection of a library in lexington. The
chairman said that one reason for this rec
ommendation was the difficulty in securing
funds for the work. Another reason as
signed was that the committee had been
assured by B. H. Warner that when the
Washington Public Library was estab-
lished, branch libraries would be erected in
several sections of the city and that Eek
ington would be one of the places chosen.
Several minor changes were made in the
constitution of the association after which
the meeting adjourned.

AT THE THEATRES.
NationaI-"The Brfde-EIect.-

Despite lowering clouds and other con-
ditions that threatened rain an extremely
large audience gathered last night at the
National Theatre to applaud and finally TO
enthuse over THE Bride Elect The
gathering" Mas largely the result of the
favorable impression created by the opera
when 1t was first heard here together with
the potency OF its composers name-the
enthusiasm" was the result OF the beauty
of Sousa's music and of the excellence OF
the presenting combination.
AS a melodious offering THE Bride
Elect ranks with the later work of its
author, The Charlatan," and with the ear
lier one, 'El Captain It's waltzes are
rythmical and poetic, its choruses spirited
and inspiring, its topical ballads catchy,
and its marches of that peculiar ringing,
swinging, clinging movement for which the
late conductor of. the Marine Band is ia
nous. All these selections are full OF life
and color, while the orchestration given
them is that of master mind. Snow
Baby" Ring the Merry Bells" The Ital-
ian Cakewalk,' THE Card Song THE
Goat and the Phonograph," and 'Unchain
the Dogs of War" together with several
of the ensemble numbers, a duet between
Minutezza and Guido and the finale OF the
first act were always and are still the IA
, yorites.
The least said about the libretto the bet
ter. Sousa's lyrics are jingling but the
story with which he has burdened the
THE Bride Elect is as fiat and tasteless
as possible. Few opportunities are afs

Academy-"The White Heather"

1.-THE White Heather" which is this
weeks attraction at the Academy, is
modern melodrama by Messrs. Raleigh
and Hamilton, authors of THE Sporting
Duchess" and has some things in common
with that creation. The scene is laid
mainly In Scotland and the plot turns upon
the possession of record of the heroine's
marriage, which has been a ceremony
performed after the Scotch fashion-by
the contracting parties accepting each
other as man and wife in the presence of
witnesses The villain, Angus Cameron,
is the husband of the heroine, Marion
Hume. and has for purposes of his own
kept his wedding secret for seven or eight
years. Then, becoming financially involv-
ed, he determines to cut off the entail to
the estate of the Duke of Shetland, to
which he is heir, marry an heiress, Her
mione De VauX, and deny his marriage to
Marion and the legitimacy of her child.
He succeeds in causing the bankruptcy
and death of Marions father, who endeav-
ors to contest his schemes, and finally
goes down in divers costume to the wreck
of his yacht, 'The White Heather" to re-
cover and destroy the account of his mar
riage entered in the log. Another diver,
friend of the heroine, visits the boat at
the same time, the two meet, and Lord
Angus is defeated The struggle of the
two under water is one of the most i'm
pressive scenes lately seeen in melodrama.
The cast, while a large one, is in reality
composed of a few actors and great many
supernumeraries. The present company
numbers two or three people who are
thoroughly capable; the rest are but little
above the average. Alice Fischer as Lady
Janet Maclintock, the quick-tongued,
quick tempered, arm-hearted Scotchwo-
man, who champions the heroine, scored
most emphatic hit, and her magnetic per-
sonality almost carried the piece of itself
