Experiment.. in Curing Cheese.

Experiments in Curing Cheese.
Prof. G. L. Mckay thus summarizes
some experiments made at the Iowa
Agricultural College in the caring of
cheese:
On the 18th of August, 1898, expert
ments were commenced with a view of
determining the feasibility of central
curing rooms. and the effects of eli
matte conditions on the curing of
cheese.
Cheese made at Iowa College factory
were shipped by express. fresh from
the press, to one OF the best factories
in Canada to be cured. We also sent
some to Guelph Ontario Dairy School
to be cured. Cheese made at Black
Greek factory and at Guelph Dairy
School were sent here, fresh from the
press. to be cured Shipping the
cheese $50 miles by express during the
heat of summer did not affect the
flavor.
temperature OF 55 degrees compared
favorably with cheese cured in we'll
ventilated room at a moderately low
temperature during the month of Oc-
tober. Cheese cured in ice box scored
27z points higher flavor and " a
point higher on texture.
Cheese can be exposed the first five
days to a temperature high 80
degrees without injuring it's flavor, #
sufficient acid has been developed to
make a firm-bodied cheese and it is
cured at 60 degrees afterwards.
Cheese cured at a temperature OF
so degrees, with d high per cent of
moisture. scored higher than cheese
cured at a temperature above 65 de-
greeS.
Adding artificial moisture through
pine shavings in a box worked very
satisfactorily in the curing room, and

A DREAM.

"Say, Williams jubilantly re-
marked the persistent bore, "did I
ever tell you about the dream I
had in which I was Edward VII.
of Merry England?''
"Not that [ remember, but if it
is short you may throb ahead
"Well, it was a fact about me
dreaming that I was Edward VII,
and of all the funny and absurd
things that ever happened to me,
the funniest happened to me that
very night. What caused me to
have such funny dream is a
question that I have been asking
myself these several moons, but I
have been unable to discover the
reason, unless it is my fondness
for hash which produced it. At
any rate, somebody took me to
Windsor Castle, asked Inc to raise
my right hand, and after some
body else said a few words about the
colonies, Ireland and Tommy At
kins, a band, which was stationed
above me, started in to play God
Save the King. Whenever the
band paused the people around me
began bowling their heads, and
every time the heads went down
they said amen with terrible unc-
ton.

everybody was still standing
around and staring at me, [ be-

to get real generous. Everybody
whom [ met [ imagined to be

me. With this big sum Of money

feeling Of generosity again pos

street I noticed large number of
people entering a hall. 1 fell in
behind some of them, and on get
ting inside, discovered that it was
a Boer meeting to raise funds for
Dom Paul, who owned little
kingdom in South Africa. When
the plate reached me I dropped in
one thousand five pound notes.
Several minutes were consumed in
counting them out, and by the
time the last one was dropped into
the plate, the audience sent up cheer
after cheer. They grabbed me,
hoisted me up on their shoulders
and marched around the room
while the band played God Save
Dom Paul.
'After this act of charity I sent
five thousand pounds to Ireland to
buy paris green with which to kill
the potato bugs that infested the
country Another five thousand
was sent to the United tates to
protect the people of Kansas from
the numerous freaks which in
habited that locality. I also sent
to the mayor of New York one
thousand pounds to be offered as
a reward to anyone destroying

Tammany Tiger, which was re-
sponsible, so [ was informed, for

twenty five regiments;
cavalry, ten, and artillery, five,
making forty regiments in all.
The Twenty-fourth and Twenty
fifth infantry and the Ninth and
Tenth cavalry were colored troops.
The army was supposed to be 2o.-
900 strong. but in reality it was
nearer 100000 It was scattered in
hundreds of posts all over the
Union.
There would not be an average
of two companies to the post, that
is rank and file would make about
one hundred men. [ don't think
there was a single post that had a
full regiment quartered there. A
man might serve full enlistment
and never see the colonel of his
regiment. The strength of a COM
pany varied from forty five to
forty eight men. according to the
rank of the captain, the junior
having the larger and the senior
the smaller.
The junior captains company
was the regimental color company,
that is the color sergeant and the
color guard were attached to it.
A regiment Of infantry, full
strength, was five hundred men,
rank and file. Now the army is
practically 100000 strong; nearly
all the old forts have been aban-
doned, and the troops concentrat-
ed near large cities or in such
positions where they are access
ible at short notice.
Let us look at the soldier him.
self. A recruit sent to regiment
had no easy thing. He drilled two
hours every day, and the balance
of his time he put in doing good
hard work, helping the room or
derby or kitchen police. AS the
regular details were old soldiers,
it was a matter of course that the
recruit would do all the work
while the former laid in his bunk
and smoked his pipe.
When the recruit had learned
his facings, the manual of arms,
not forgetting the setting-up drill,
he WAS put on regular duty. II

his quarters, making dobies (sun-
dried bricks); working on founda-

nearly all the work of the army.

Look at the soldiers doing guard
duty. In every fort there are

Now a few words as to army
Justice. What the criminal code,
the city and village ordinance, is
to the civilian, the articles of war
are to the soldier. They cover the
whole category of crimes and mis-
demeanors, and all offenses are
tried by court-martial. There are
but two kinds of courts. The gar
rison court martial which deals
with petty offenses is convened by
the regimental commander, who is
also the reviewing officer, and is
limited in power. The heaviest
sentence which it may impose is
$l3 fine and confinement to the
guardhouse for thirty days. The
general court-martial has authori-
ty to impose a fine of one cent or
to impose the death penalty. A
general court-martial is convened
by the department commander,
| who is also reviewing officer. He
has the power of approving the
whole, or part of a sentence, or
he may disapprove of the whole
proceedings and sentence, or if he
thinks the sentence too severe he
may remit part of it.
All sentences of capital punish
ment must go through the adju-
tant generals Office to the president.
The proceedings of the court
are reviewed by the department
commander, who endorses them
with his recommendation, also by
the adjutant general. The presi-
dent, as final Judge, may do as he
sees fit.
AS to the quality of justice adj
ministered, [ would rather face
court martial than a district court.
With all their short, sharp ways,
the army courts actions are based
on the truest justice. With a
court martial a mans intent gov
ems their whole action. When
we take into consideration the fact
that the majority Of cases tried are
for assault, and nearly all the bal
ance questions Of discipline, this
rule can easily be appreciated.
What effect had the service on
the after life Of the soldiers? With
some precious little. Probably
none Of them would make very
good church deacons, they might
swear out loud, but for a good
friend, and for square, straight
forward dealings, give me some of

JOHN HENRY SMITH HOME.
President of the Trans'Mlssisslppi
Congress Tells of the Work Done.

Hon. John Henry Smith has re-
turned from Cripple Creek. Colorado,
where he attended the four days SEES
sion Of the Mississippi congress,
which closed Friday morning. 1t was
the most largely attended session In
the history OF the congress. and Apostle
Smith was honored by being elected It's
president There were about 1900 dele
gates In attendance. ana they proved
that they met for The purpose of work
ing. Hundreds Of resolutions were in
troduced and disposed o. and those
who were present look upon the SEES
sion as one of the most profitable yet
held.
Apostle Smith considers that the most
important step taken by the congress
was the one looking 10 the amalgama-
tion OF the conferences Of the large as
sociatitns OF the great West. such as
the mining congress and the livestock
association. A committee of three was
appointed at the instance Of Colonel
Montgomery Of Colorado to confer with
the other great bodies relative TO
amalgamation Apostle Smith thinks
that Lhe object will be accomplished
and that the great Industries of the
West will receive vast benefit from
such cooperation.
Apostle Smith was very much i'm
pressed by the rich mines at Cripple
Creek and the wonderful working in
and about the mountains. While In
Cripple Creek he slept under two heavy
blankets and naturally the intense heat
