Butter In Denmark.

Butter is made mostly in large cream
cries in Denmark, and the government
has a system Of inspection of creamery
products SO impartial and rigid that
the result is an almost uniformly good
expectation. The butter is not better
than best American creamery, but it is
uniform. The method Of inspection is
somewhat as follows: The government
board selects sample tubs from the diff
ferent creameries to- be tested without
notice to the creameries. These sam
Piles are criticised by commercial
Judges, paid by the government in such
q manner that they have no idea from
what creamery the butter came. Re
ports are made up, and, II adverse, q

patched to the poor creameries to get at
the. bottom Of the trouble and render
any assistance possible, with the gov
eminent at his back. Every possible
measure is provided by the government
to secure uniformly high grade but

THE CARE OF MILK.
Absolute Cleanliness Is the Essen.
tial Thing.

Absolute Cleanliness Ia the Essen
tiaI Thing.
DR.. Conard, who has in his charge
5000 cows in dairies furnishing milk
to the Philadelphia market, is an
authority on the care Of milk. The
doctor says: milk was never intended
to see daylight. Nature intended that
it should pass directly from the cow
into the calf's stomach. The air is full
Of germs. Milk is a medium for the
culture of these germs. some of which
are those of deadly disease, and when
it is exposed to the air it receives
them.
"Great responsibility is assumed when
we make milk a commercial article.
1t must be protected from disease
germs as far as possible. Observe
what filth a bucket Of milk is exposed
to. 1t is drawn from a COW that is
covered with hair, dust and, often
times. dirt. These drop into the milk
as the sleeves rub the COW. Dirt goes
through the finest strainer with the
milk. 1t is then cooled, every drop of
milk being exposed to air that is not
pure.
"The result is that it sours If it is not
kept cold. Microbes will not multiply
rapidly in a temperature under SO de-
grees. Above that degree they in
crease at a rapid rate. Distributors Of
milk in the cities often handle it badly.
but some Of them give the best possible
care because consumers demand it.
Producers must do the same thing.
Absolute cleanliness is the essential
thing"

CARE OF WEAK LAMBS.
How to Treat Those That Are Unable
to Suck the Eve.

How to Treat Those That Are Unable
to Suck the Eve.
There are many times when lambs
are dropped that are too weak to get
up and suck the eve. If it chances to
be one Of twins. it may be that before
it is found the other and stronger one
will have taken all the milk from the
eve, or the lamb may be so chilled as
not to have the power to suck. We
have saved such lamb when it scarce
~ had life enough to swallow by giving
warm milk a little warmer than it
came from the COW, and if we had it in
the house we would add about a tea
spoonful of spirit or little warm GIN
ger tea to the half cup of milk, says an
expert grower. 1t will take but one or
two teaspoonfuls of milk at a time un-
til 2 or days old.
When fresh milk is not at hand, use
condensed milk. about teaspoonful Of
it to ten spoonfuls of hot water. Be
sure to have it at least blood warm.
When it is able to stand alone, the
lamb may sometimes be put back on
the eve if she will own it and has milk
enough for both. If not, it can be
brought up on bottle and will usually
outgrow the one on the eve if given all
it will drink of good milk.
After the first feeding rub It dry and
wrap it in a warm blanket. then place
it where it will keep warm. With a
flock large enough to keep man to
watch them at lambing time this may
not be necessary, but where they are
visited two or three times in a night
there may some come in the interval
that will need attention.

THEY ARE DISPLEASED.
Members of the House Of Commons
Have Been Sighted.

mSHCefS OF the rIouSc OF SoIIlIIioHS
Have Been Sighted.
London, Feb. 1S.-The government
is not seriously affected by the amend.
ments to the address moved by the
Liberals in the commons since the
opposition is weak and faction-rent.
Candid friends in the house of lords
are more troublesome. The Duke of
Bedford, who does not ordinarily take
much interest in public affairs. is re-
ported to be greatly exercised over
evidence of military mismanagement
in South Africa and is bent upon max
ing a disagreeable speech early in
the session.
Considerable dissatisfaction exists
on both sides of the house Of COM
mons. on account of the contemptuous
treatment Of members by the officials
responsible for arrangements in the
house of lords on Thursday. Sir Hen
~ Fowler proposes to ask Mr.. Bal
four whether he will consent to the
appointment of a committee to con-
slider the question of accommodation
provided for the peoples representa-
tives when their presence in the upper
house is commanded by the king.
It has been learned that several
prominent members who fell in be-
hind the speaker with the intention
of proceeding to the house of lords to
hear the kings speech, abandoned the
task when they found that it was i'm
possible for them to keep their places
without a physical struggle, and a
suggestion is maize that if the house
of lords is too small to accommodate
the people whose duty it is to listen
to messages from the throne, the GER
emory might be transferred to West
minister hall.

SHEEP IN COW PASTURE.

While Professor Shaw says that

farm without costing the owner any.
thing for food in winter, we will 60
further than that and say that we
think from two to six could be kept for
every cow that is turned to pasture
and that on most farms that we have
seen the cows would find more feed as
q result. They eat many plants which
the COW does not eat, and many OF
them are such weeds and bushes as en-
croach upon the pasture unless they
are kept down by hand labor or other
means than the grazing Of the cow.
That they enrich the land over which
they roam is too well known to require
any argument. The proverb that ''the
hoof of the sheep is golden" is centu-
ries old and is too evidently an allu.
sion to their ability to improve the
soil they travel over to neSd an ex-
PLANTATION. Cows have no objection TO
feeding over the dropplngs OF the
sheep. They are so fine and so scatter
ed and so quickly lose their odor that
the growth which is produced by this
fertilizing element is more liable to be
eaten too closely than to be neglected.
When they have been together
short time. they will be found to keep
very closely together. the sheep learn
ing to look to the cows as their natural
protectors and the cows as ready to do
battle for them as for their calves. We
would not take pasture suitable for
60 sheep and add 10 cows to it, for
they would find short picking, but the
pasture that would feed 10 cows must
have been exceptionally well kept from
weeds and bushes if there would not
be feed enough left that the cows had
rejected to feed from 80 to 60 sheep
all the pasturage they would need.

WASTE OF CORN FODDER.
Valuable Food That Should BE Turn
ed Into Profitable Meat.


ed Into Profitable Meat.
Professor Shaw renews his plea for
greater economy upon the western
farm. OF that most palpable and use
less extravaganza witnessed in ninety
nine out Of every hundred cornfields he
says:
The waste of corn fodder in the Mis-
sissippi valley is a grievous waste. In
the aggregate the uncut corn must
amount to millions and millions of
acres. And one acre in those states
where the season is long grows so
much food! In a recent ride from
Omaha to Kansas City for more than
half a day the train steamed along
through cornfields nearly all of which
were uncut.
There was enough Of uncut corn in
this one part Of the Missouri valley to
feed hundreds of thousands of cattle
through all the winter. All this valu-
able food will waste, and it is only a
fragmentary portion of the waste that
will take place all up and down the
Mississippi and many of its tributaries.
The day will GENE when all this will
change. The day will come when it
must change. At one time the greatest
profit may thus have been obtained by
large holders Of land. 1t may be so
still. But surely in those days of high
priced meat and Of shredders more
money could be- made by using more of
this valuable food. The people in those
areas where this practice prevails will
be hard indeed to persuade to change
their ways. the force of habit is so
powerful. but it is a change that ought
to be brought about.

WosK IN THE DAIRY.

0ysfematie Care In Handling MiIk
Produces Best Results.
Before milking the cows teats are al
ways washed with a cloth and wiped,
whether they seem clean or not. My
practice is to have ten gallon milk
strained as fast as drawn, says w. r.
4ostetter in American Agriculturist.
rhe strainer Is made Of the finest wire
Goth, and under this is a second strain
er Of two thicknesses OF cotton flannel
cloth, with the nap side out. II the
nap sides face each other, the milk will
not run through. When the-milk Is de-
nvered at the dairy house, the dairy
mans part Is done. and the butter max
er's part commences. If the milk Is
not good and clean, the butter maker
cannot make good butter. OF course
making. run the milk through the
separator as soon as it reaches the
dairy house, so that it falls as little in
temperature as possible after being
drawn.
The cream is run into can that
stands in ice cold water, so that In a
very short time it is cooled to 4S de-
grees or lower. It is held at that
temperature until ready to ripen for
churning. Twenty-four hours before
churning the cream is warmed to 20 or
so degrees, depending on the weather.
A sour milk starter which has been
started "A hours before is added to the
cream, one part of the starter to 20 Of
the cream In "a hours the cream is
ready to churn after being cooled to so
to Sc degrees. The usual time for
churning is from three-quarters to one
hour
As soon as the butter is nicely gran
ulated the churn is stopped and for a
churning of so pounds Of butter a
pound of salt is put into the churn.
The churn is revolved a few times.
The dissolving Of the salt thins the but
termilk, and the butter is less apt to
run out with it. As soon as the but
termilk is drawn off water at SO de-
grees is put into the churn, about the
same quantity of water as there was
buttermilk. The churn is revolved a
few times and the water drawn off.
Water at 60 to 60 degrees is then put
into the churn, about twice the quanti-
ty that there was of buttermilk. The
churn is revolved few times and the
water drawn off, which should be al
most clear. If not clear. fresh water at
the same temperature is added and
drawn off. The butter is allowed to
drain a few minutes. Salt is then
sprinkled over it in the churn, using
one and half ounces to one pound Of
butter.
The butter is placed on a butter
worker, where it is worked about one
half enough. If necessary, add more
salt If the granules of butter happen
to be little too, fine. it will hold more
