Making High-CIa lass Dairy Rnttar.


BY using lime daily it is not so diff
cult to keep down the bad odors in the
stable. We always try to milk as
near 8 o'clock each morning as possi-
BILE, and at the same time in the even
ing. The milk is strained into q ten
gallon can. AS soon as milking is COM
pleted the milk Is run through sepa-
rator and the cream placed in three
gallon shotgun can. When the wealth
er Is warm we set the cream in cold
water, but during winter time we sim
ply set the cream of each milking in a
separate can and put it in cellar
where no vegetables of any kind are
kept. A day before churning we mix
all the cream in one vat after 1t has
been warmed to seventy or seventy
five degrees by setting the cans in hot
water. For starter we use skim
milk which has been kept in half-gal-
lon fruit jars for twenty-four hours.
These are put in a warm place and are
kept tightly covered. Before putting
into the cream we skim one inch from
the top of these jars.
When the cream and the starter are
in the vat we put n cloth over IL and
stir often until the cream begins to
thicken. Then it is wheeled into
cool place, uncovered and left until
the next morning. 1t Is then churned.
If the room is not cool enough the
cream Is cooled by placing large can
full Of cold water in the cream vat.
We churn at a temperature of fifty
two to fifty-eight degrees, using a gus
oline engine TO supply the power. We
do not care how long it takes. but the
time usually varies from forty min
utes to one and half hours. A sixty
gallon barrel churn is used. AS soon
as the cream begins to break we throw
in one or two pals OF cold water This
think, helps TO separate the butter
more completely from the milk.
When the butter comes In granules
about the size Of bird shot, the butter
milk Is drawn of and small hair
sieve used to catch the butter. which
tries to escape with it. After draining
for a little while a few handfuls of
salt are thrown In for say fifty pounds
| OF butter and twenty-five to forty gal
Ions of cold well water, which Is usu-
ally below fifty degrees. The churn
Is turned quite rapidly for a half min
ute, when the water is drained off
again as quickly as possible. and two
ounces of salt added for every pound
OF butter The butter Is raked to one
side OF the churn by means OF large
wooden fork, and the salt sprinkled
In during the operation. IL everything
has been satisfactory the butter will
rake like pile of wheat Under these
conditions there Is no trouble to apply
the salt evenly. After the salt has
been added the churn Is closed and
given a few tWns and allowed TO
stand for twenty to thirty minutes.
Then the churn Is turned until the hut
ter comes together in ballgs Care is
taken In removing the brine which ac-
cumulates during this process. 80 1t
VIII not drain away all the salt. After
the butter Is accumulated in balls. the
faucet OF the churn is opened and the
butter given good pounding with a
heavy packer. 1t Is then packed into
tubs or jars as circumstances require
