The necessity of using pure salt is
apparent to every butter and cheese
maker, says The American Agricultur-
list In butter making 1t serves three
purposes. First, 1t aids in the removal
of buttermilk and surplus moisture
salted butter containing less water
than unsalted as rule; second, 1t aids
as preseryatiye, and, third, 1t helps
to improve the favor of the butter,
which, from the American standpoint,
is the most important. In a recent
study of this subject by the Wisconsin
experiment station it was found that
it was more difficult to evenly dis
tribute a coarse grained salt through
out the butter than a fine one, but that
the difference in weight of the finished
butter was Is per cent more when the
coarse salt was used. On the whole,
salt with a medium sized grain that
was fat and flaky gave the best salts
faction. For cheesemaking a coarser
salt than for butter is preferable.
The chlorides of magnesium and Of
calcium give to butter it's bitter flavor.

In fresh butter, 1t becomes apparent In

BEE BuzzEs.

One advantage in favor of the black
bees is that in Gaping their honey they
use heavy Gaping.
The cause of clustering Is usually an
overfuIi hive. While bees are clustered
work Is in measure suspended.
Colonies having defective queens are
always the foundation OF trouble and
never fail to come to naught If neglected.
Heavy foundation, running four square
feet to the pound. viii produce when
drawn out nearly a comb with full sized
cells.
The supply of drones depends entirely
upon the amount Of drone comb furnish
ed, and care must be taken not to over
do 1t.
Hives with thick walls made Of some
porous material that is a good noncon-
ductor Of heat as we'll as an absorbent OF
moisture have decided advantages over
hives made of single thickness Of
boards
Bees build two distinct, regular sizes
of eells-drone and worker cells. The
worker comb measures nearly five cells
to an inch, while the drone comb meas
ures about four cells to an inch. But
the bees are less particular about the
size of drone cells than they are about
that of the worker cells

Need oe Some System In Which Dali
rymcn Have Confidence.
Skepticisn of private dairy tests is
natural for the reason that 1t is very
often well founded. says correspond
ent of The Country Gentleman. Buy
ers frequently give owners full credit
for honesty as men, yet doubt the
truthfulness OF the butter tests Of their
cows because they believe that through
misplaced confidence they allow them
selves to be deceived by their employ
ees. What is the remedy for all this
distrust7
1t may be set down as pretty safe
rule that no system of test will gain
that degree OF public confidence which
would make it acceptable as an au-
thoritative means Of deciding competi-
ton between rival owners or as
sponsor for records OF comparative
merit which does not afford ample
opportunity for investigation and
watchfulness on the part of rival In
terests.
All plans heretofore adopted In this
country for general use have fallen
iamentably short There are a few
tests. however, that command full con-
fdence. They are those that have
been made in open competition on the
fair grounds, where rival interests
We're on the spot watching each other
and ready to assert their rights against
any unfair advantage or stretching of
results But while the principle that
necessarily dominates the fair ground
test meets the critical appreciation of
the breeding community at large the
opportunity for It's practice is too lin
tied. Our fairs all occur at about the
same time of the year under widely
differing conditions and surroundings
none of which Is conducive to the best
yield of the cows, though perhaps In
each case as fair for one cow as for
another. Hence 1t is not for It's adj
vantage In fayorlng the cows that the
fair ground test commends itself. but
because the circumstances and condi-
tons safeguard a just decision. The
demands of the breeding interests in
this vast country cannot wait upon the
limited capacity of the fairs to supply
their butter records. They must have
a system that works the year around
under better advantage to the cow and
equally guarded as to verify Of yield.
This system must be uniform in meth
cd all over the country, conducted
strictly by rules Issued from the gov
erning source and always subject to
official inspection

How to salt Cows.

A supply of salt, available whenever
the COW wants 1t, is necessary to main
tain high milk yield. Salt stimulates
the appetite, assists digestion and as
sanitation and increases the flow of the
fluids of the body, stimulating all the
vital functions of the animal Sailing
dairy cows once q week is not suffi-
Client. 1t Is a good plan to keep rock
salt under shelter where the cows can
get it at viii and then feed loose salt
twice week ia such quantities as the
cows viii eat. Loose salt may be used
exclusively If If can be sheltered from
rain. If rock salt only Is used the
cows tongues VIII frequently become
sore, when they will not eat the guam
tity needed for a full flow of milk Do
not mix the salt with the feed, because
II you do the COW may get more salt
than she needs, which will reduce her
yield. Cows having salt kept before
them all the time will not eat too much.

Where to Cut Sprouts ON Stu1mps.
Winter cut hard wood stumps are
likely to sprout the following season,
while those cut In midsummer do so
rarely or cease sprouting the second
season Allowing winter cut stumps
to retain their sprouts throughout the
summer preserves the vitality of the
roots, and If early the following spring
these shoots are cut off the roots are
in condition to throw up another sup
ply Of shoots, and so the life Of the
stump may continue for several sea
sons, according to the age Of the
stump-the older for a shorter and the
younger for a longer time.
The advantageous time to cut away
sprouts is during July and August,
when the foliage is fully matured. The
effect is a sudden shock to vitality at
a time when nature is least prepared to
recover from such damage. A few
ephemeral sprouts may come after a
midsummer cutting, but usually no
persistent growth. The long lapse Of
time without foliage till the opening of
the next season usually suffiees to de-
stroy the stump's vitality Exceptional
cases may be met In stunps of will
lows, aspens, muiberries, etc, which
may require more continued cutting
and grubbing to destroy them. This
advice was originally given by such
good authority as DR.. B. W. Fernow
in Rural New Yorker.
