Two 12-inch ventilators run from
the ceiling up through the roof. The
windows in this room are of two
thicRmesses of glass. There are also
two small openings in the wall in OPP
posite corners, to allow cold air to
come in when the night is cooler than
the day. Last fall when the thermom-
eter stood for several days above 90
degrees in the shade. we never saw it
above 76 degrees in this room. This
spring we put in cold air duet.
The cheese are placed on truck
as they are taken from the presses and
pushed to the curing rooms. The

and kept in tanks covered with boards
and roofing paper. Some of our pa
irons say that the value of the whey
was doubled by pasteurizing.
The building sets on tile founda-

touch the ground. 1t is covered with
an asbestos roofing. We use no hoist
ing crane to unload, as the cans are
dumped over a saddle from the wag-
ons. The upper story over work
rooms is used for boxes, workshop,

HOME BUTTER MAKING.
1t Is n Pleasing Occupation the Pur-
suit of Which Is Worth the
Labor Given to 1t,


Il enjoy making my own butter" .
lady said TO me the other day. know
it is considered quite the thing nova
days to send the milk away. to get
rid of the care and work of making it
up. And no doubt there is something
in this; but the pleasure of making
my own butteris great enough to over
balance and more than overbalance the
few cents pound it costs .me to do MY
work"
have thought of this many times
since, and | am convinced that there is
more in this good woman's side of
the argument than most of us would
be willing to confess. No doubt it is
saving of strength in some ways to
send the milk to the creamery. With
many farmers wives his is no small
item. They have SO much else to do
that they do not derive The pleasure
in caring for the milk at home. But
there is a satisfaction IN converting
the sweet, pure milk into golden but
ter. The entire process is one full
of interest, whether we stop to think
of it or not. The way by which the
cream rises is mystery to most of us.
Why does it separate from the milk?
Take, then, the process of churning;
that is strange hing to many. The
study of these things is highly inter-
esting.
Then, the satisfaction of using your
own butter is worth a great deal. Not
all of rs can quite enjoy the butter
which we buy. Who made it? Was he
clean in his ways? What was the con-
dition of his stables? We're his cows
well cared for? We're they sound phys
ically? We would like to know. But
here is our own butter. How beau
tifGl it looks! Fresh, sweet and pure
as the crisp grass and the crystal wa
ter could make it. We are not afraid
to put it en- the table for the use of
the king. ard we can recommend it to
the most fastidious pprchaser.-E L.

Experience during recent dry sum-
mers strongly emphasizes the chief
weakness of blue grass-its almost
entire failure to grow during dry
weather. Orchard grass has been
found best of the ordinary grasses
in this respect, but the common red
clover has shown its superiority to
any of the smaller grasses for either
hay or grazing in dry years. Highly
priced as are the old blue grass pas
lures, it seems clearly proved that
a greater quantity of food would be
produced by putting them under a
rotation, with corn and clover the
chief crops. This would involve more
labor, but in present conditions
would give better prospects Of
profits. said tie late Prof. G. E. Nor.

OIL for Dusty HIGHWAYS.

DR.. H. j. Waters, dean of the Mis-

Quoting experiments in Columbia
with street" oil, which have attract
ed considerable attention. Two
things are claimed for the discovery.
First, it will keep the dust laid, and,
second, it will make the roads dry
even in wet weather, by causing the
rain to slide into the gutter. AS a
result of the oiling of several roads
in Columbia and Boone county it has
been demonstrated that no dust
arises, no matter how dry the road.
In fact, the dust has been laid per-
fectly by the new method, the only
disagreeable feature being the odor,
which, it is claimed, will disappear
when rain comes. The oil is injected
to the depth of two inches and the
ground is then rolled thoroughly.

LINSEED MEAL CRUEL.
II Is Declared to BE nm Excellent and
Nutritious MIX Substitute
for Calves.

We are often asked for advice as to
the best substitute to use when there
is not sutficiency of fresh new milk to
be given to calves, says Dairy and
Creamery. In our own experience we
have not found anything better than
mucilage or soup made up of linseed
meal or ground linseed cake, with the
addition of little flour and pea meal.
An American breeder, in the course
of communication to one of our con
temporaries, claims to have obtained
excellent results from the use of
preparation made by slowly boiling
one pound of fresh sweet hay in six
quarts of water for about an hour.
and straining the decoction so obtained
into bucket TO cool. A handful of oil
cake and a similar quantity of fine
oatmeal is stirred into half a gallon of
boiling water and allowed to simmer
for the same length of time that the
hay is stewing At the end of that
time this mixture is added to the hay
tea, and the whole given to the calf
along with a little milk. The S'tea"
should be given warm at first, but after
awhile, when the calf becomes ac-
customed TO it, it may be given quite
cold without any injurious results. The
allowance of oil cake may be increased
as age progresses. The writer in ques-
ton claims that calves so reared are
in every way as good when four to
five months of age a s if they were get
ting whole milk right through.

worst Enemies of Butter.

Two of the strongest enemies Of
butter to-day are oieomargarine and
the preseryatiyes. Both are of the
same general character. for they de-
pend on the greed of men for their
very existence. Both exist in the dark
ness and masquerade under other than
their true characters. Oleomargarine
can be profitably sold only when it is
sold for butter. The preservatives are
sold bv being proclaimed as perfectly
healthful drugs. The ignorant and
vicious buy the chemicals. The ignor-
ant principally buy the bogus butter
products, or at least most Of the
consumers are ignorant. In eithercas
a dissemination of knowledge is neces-
sary to destroy the enemy Partners

THE SAFEST SAFETY WHEEL,

Life. my boy, IS bicycle path.
And work is the wheel you should ride
If you would mount to the crest of the
hill
And coast down the other side.
Just oil the machine with cheerfulness
And see that the parts are in trim,
Then straddle the saddle and dial on
With a ready, steady vim.
Don't start with a rush up the hill of life
Just pedal a medium gate
Remember that those who "scorch" at
first
Are likely to finish late.
Grasp the handle bars Of the wheel of
work
With a firm hold--not too tight!
Then sit up straight, ike a man. and
push
Push for the road that's right.
You may wabble a bit, and punctures,
May cause you to dismount,
But plug up the holes with smiles and
pluck,
They are the plugs which count.
There are other makes Of machines than
There's the idle" the Lazy" the
Rest
And host of others Of tempting style.
But the one called "Work" is best
Its a low gear wheel Of homely frame,
But It's safe and sure and strong,
And the man who rides it perslstently
Can never in life go wrong.
So straddlc the saddle OF Work" my
boy,
And push It along with pride
Till you get to the top Of the hill Of life.
Then youll coast down the other side

name he rushed up to his seat and
extending his hand said:

SHERIFF COOK OF SHAWNEE
Caught And Held as a Hostage by
Two Escaped Con9icts.
THE POSSE WAS PoWERLEss.

Topeka, Nov. 12-Sheriff Porter
Cook, of Shawnee county, went to Paul
inc, the first station on the Santa Fe
south of Topeka, to capture two of the
convicts escaped from the federal peni-
tentiary at Leavenworth, and was him
self captured by the convicts and held
a prisoner until night. The two con-
victs had been discovered in the woods
where they had two horses. For more
than three hours the sheriff sat in a
chair covered by six-shooter. By
that time the house was surrounded by
big posse from Topeka, but they
could do nothing without sacrificing
the sheriff's life and the life of Mrs.
Worcester, the woman of the house
where Cook was held. Mr.. Worcester
was on the floor beside them and un-
conscious, having his head broken by a
blow.
After dark the two hostages were
marched out through the ranks of the
posse, with revolvers held against thei1.
heads by the convicts. Upon reaching
a cornfeld the convicts broke away after
one OF them had snapped his revolver
at the sheriff They were heavily
armed and the posse did not follow
them into the corn.
The federal officers took steps to get
n pack Of hounds to follow the fresh
trail
The presence of the sheriff in the
house where he was captured is eX-
planned by the statement that he and a
deputy had driven the convicts out of
the woods past the house, as they sup
posed, but the convicts had only gone
around the house and entered a door on
the farther side, while the sheriff went
into door upon the side of the house
which he first reached, to inquire which
way the convicts had gone. He was
seized as he entered the door and dis
armed.
After the convicts broke away the
posse sent a number of bullets after
them and one was hit in the hand and
the other in the leg but they did not
