Honolulu Houses Are Very Technical
 With the Executive.

 Cape Town. April 11.-General Rofha is making another effort 70 bring about peace in South Africa.

Should He Thoroughly Scalded After
Each Churning.
One fruitful source of trouble is the
ehurn. An unclean churn is sure to
turn out bad butter, although it may
appear all right when fresh, says
Creamery Journal. The germs are
there and will get in their work, and
the butter will "go or. in flavor In a
short time. A blind man should be
able to tell when the churn is kept
clean. There is an odor which gives it
away, and If he has also lost his sense
of smell he can still distinguish, If he
has the tactile sense, that of touch, de-
Gently developed. If he can neither
see, smell nor feel, he is out Of place in
a creamery, and so it follows that any
one fit to run creamery can tell
whether the churn is clean.
One trouble is that the churn is not
always scalded the last thing. 1t needs
to be left scalding hot, so 1t will dry
quickly. If cold water is even poured
In and used for rinsing after it is thor
oughly cleaned and is not scaIded after
ward, the enurn becomes musty and fit
for the propagation of mold germs.
Hot weather, dampness. lack of air cir
cuiatien and lack of light favor bad
favors and bad odors, and the cream
cry man who succeeds is the one who
guards against Them while he who
makes irsts, seconds and thirds goes
on and wonders what is the matter.
Hot water, the AEub brush and steam
are the three guardian angels of the
churn to drive away filth. Scald by
conducting steam into the churn with
the churn partially closed, not tight
enough to spring the wood, It tight
enough to force it into every erevice.
Use discretion. Do not continue steam
ing long enoughto shrink and open the
