MOTHER LOUBET."
The Venerable Peasant Woman
Whose Son Rules France Still
Manages Her Farm.
o0ooOooooocoCooCcooeooCO

Above is published picture which
tells at glance why the monarchical
press of England and the Continent
thinks and says and shouts that the
French people are crazy and in the
last stages of political and social
chaos.
It is the picture of the mother of
the new President of the French Re-
public.
What but the gloomiest view could
monarchists, and especially title
hunting journalists, take of nation
that wonld select as its le aders the
sons of such women as plain old
Mother Loubet, when it might be
led by the sons of noble and even
royal mothers?
But as Americans look into the face
of this woman of the people they be-
gin to realize the truth about France,
the real France, the France that is
filed with just such plain people as
our own, toiling and struggling
''that their children may inherit the
promise" We see that France has
shaken off the traditions of caste and
and privilege, that she has become
land of, for and by the plain people.
And we know that through such
homely virtues as shine from Mother
Loubet's face-the virtues of sim
plioity, shrewdness, frugality and in
dustry- France is and will remain
great.

Commercial Cultures Unnecessary.

The discovery of the important part
played by various bacteria in produc-
ing the flavor and aroma of butter has
led to the introduction of what are
known as commercial butter cultures,
and dairymen have been led to hope
that by the use of such cultures and
of the process of pasteurizing, the
quality of their butter might be ma
terially improved. Recent trials at
the Pennsylvania experiment station
seem to indicate that cleanliness, the
careful selection of milk. and close at
tention to details promise to effect
more in improving the flavor of our
butter than pasteurizing and the use
of commercial cultures.
With pasteurized cream. the acid
forming cultures were found to give
slightly but distinctly better results
than were obtained from unpasteur-
lied cream lipened spontaneously,
while non-acid forming cultures gave
results, if anything slightly inferior to
those obtained by spontaneous ripen
ing. With unpasteurized cream, as
might have been expected, the results
were less marked. A homema lie
starter, however carefully prepared
from skim milk, was found to give as
good, if not bette results than the
more expensive commercial cultures
and this was true both with pasteur-
lied and raw cream; no distinctly
beneficial results were observed from
pasteurizing, although the experiments
were not specially planned to test this
point.
These results are similar to those
recently published by the Wisconsin
experiment station. and the two taken
together do not seem to indicate that,
under present conditions, marked ad-
vantages are to be anticipated from the
use of the commercial cultures. Trials
were also made of heating milk to
temperature of about 165 degrees
Fahrenheit before separating, but with
out any marked effect on the favorlng

sued by Manager Fasig of Charter Oak
Park shows an exceedingly large num-
Der of horses entered for the meets to be
held there this coming simmer and au-
tumn. All the leading stables of the
country are represented, and each has
sent some of it's finest talent. This is
due, of course. to the liberal purses
which have been hung up by the man
agement.
With this great array of entries the
sport Furnished at both the summer and
autumn meetings is bound to be Of the
best, and the season promises to eclipse
some of the famous successes of the
past. The new system of racing the
best two heats out of three, will have a
good show, as the nominators to whom
the choice was left chose it in all but
two of the events at the midsummer

The result will be watched with a
great deal of interest, and the friends of
the plan claim that it will be much more
