You KNOW said the Illinois cor.
gresham, that I am powerful fond Of
green corn. Just give me all the nice,
sweet tender corn I can eat and you
can take the truft1es. terrapin and those
other things that shorten mems lives
and ruin their digestions and their
tempers. Well, l happened to meet an
old constituent of mine here in Wash
lngton, and / wanted to do the right
thing by him, so invited him up tc
the hotel to take dinner with me. He
came from the country, down near
Danville.
He showed up on time, and when
we had taken our places at the table
to my great delight discovered that
the menu contained boiled green corn
on the cob. reminded the waiter that
was very fond of corn on the cob,
and he evidently remembered Just how
fond l was Of 1T, for when he came
back he brought with him about peck
of as nice corn as was ever served out
side Of the state of Illinois. Now, my
guest did not look on green corn as a
particularly rare table luxury. He
raised it by the hundred acres, and I
suppose all the time was biting into
those ears he was recalling just how
much of that stuff he threw into his
hog lot every morning when he was at
home. At any rate, after had made
that big plate OF corn on the cob look
like 80 cents he opened his mouth and
spoke.
Joe. said he. how much does it
cost you to live at this hotel?.
II didn't know what he was driving
at. so put the figure away down low
You see, didn't want him to go home
and tell the people that l was putting
on a lot of airs in Washington.
Well. he said after he had thought
the matter over while, I should think
you could live a whole lot cheaper at
a livery stable.

TEMPERATURE OF CREAM.
Unlc.. It Is just Right chu,,tins Il
Apt to Be Laborious
DisnEreeable Task

We frequently are asked why il
takes SO long to churn at times. The
most recent query of this nature is
from a farmer boy of IL summers. He
does the churning at home, and as he
has to manipulate the machine for
hours at time without bringing the
butter, he wants to know what meas
ures he should adopt to put an end
to such an eNasperating task. Our
young dairyman is one among hun
dreds who have the churning TO do,
and to all of them we offer few sue-
gestions which we hope they will test
and report on: One of the most com
mon causes of slow churning is in
having the cream too cold. To know
whether it is too cold or too warm one
should provide himself with a dairy
thermometer, which will cost about 25
cents. Ordinarily, the maximum tenn
perature of cream for churning is
from IS to 60 degrees, the former in
warm and the latter in cold weather.
These temperatures however. must be
modified to suit other conditions. In
cold room the cream must be warmer
than otherwise.
Cream from different cows and diff
ferent breeds varies with respect to
the churning temperature. Jersey
cream. as rule, requires compare
lively high temperature. The char
acter of the feed will modify the prop
er churn;ng temperature. J, is said
that excessive feeding of cotton seed
in the south makes very high churn-
ing temperature necessary--70 to 70
degrees being not uncommon. Sweet
cream must be churned at a lower
temperature than that well ripened,
and rich, heavy cream lower than
thin cream, other things being equal.
Then the construction of the churn.
speed and amount of cream are all fac
tors in determining the churning tenn
Perature. Another Important factor
is the length of time the cow has been
in milk. Cream from q farrow COW
is harder TO churn than that from a
fresh one, and must have a higher tenn
perature.
Thus it is seen how important it is
to know the temperature of tile cream
when it is put into the churn, and one
must know many things about the
cream to be able to intelligently mod
ify the temperature to suit the condi-
tions.-Farmers' Voice.
