OUR FARMERS.
WHY BUTTER is SLOW IN COMING.

We frequently are asked why it
takes so long to cuhrn at times. The
most recent query of this nature is
from farmer boy oftwelve summers.
He does the churning at home, and as
he has to manipulate the machine for
hours at time without bringing but
ter, he wants to know what measures
he should adopt to put an end to such
an exasperating task. Our young
dairyman is one among hundreds who
have the churning to do, and to all OF
them we offer few suggestions which
we hope they will test ard report on@
One of the most common causes Of
slow churning is in having the cream
too cold. To know whether it is too
cold Or too warm one should provide
himself with a dairy thermometer,
which costs about twenty five cents.
Ordinarily, the maxium temperature
of cream for churning is from Fifty
eight to sixty degrees, the former in
warm and the latter in cold weather.
These temperatures, however, Enust
In a cold room the cream must be
warmer than otherwise.
Cream from different COWS and
different breeds varies with respect
to the 'churning temperature. Jersey
cream, as rule, requires compare
lively high temperature. The ckarac-
ter of the feed will modify the proper
temperature. 1t is said that excessive
feeding of cotton seed in the south
makes a very high 'churning tenpera-
ture cessary-seventy to seventy
two degrees being not uncommon.
Sweet cream must be churned at
lower temperature than that we'll
ripened, and a rich, heavy cream
lower than thin cream, other things
being equal. Then the construction
of the .churn, speed and amount of
cream are all factors in determining
the charming temperature. Another
important factor is5he length'of time
the COWS have been in milk. Cream
from & farrow COW IS harder to churn
than that from fresh one, and must
have higher temperature.
Thus it is seen how important it is
to know the temperature of cream
when it's put into the churn, and one
must know many things about cream
to be able to intelligentlY modify the
temperature to suit the condition.

LADIES' COLUMN
JUST HOW.

If root vegetables, carrots, parsnips,
horseradish, beets or such vegetables,
are growing soft and withered, cut a
thin slice off one end and lay them in
cold water. In few hours they will
be as hard and healthy as ever.
If you are making a salad dressing
which calls for cream, if you have no
cream, use milk with a tablespoon
of flour stirred in it till smooth. The
cream will simply make it little
thicker than the milk does.
In a cucumber there is bitter por-
ton near the stem end. If you begin
at the stem end to pare it and keep
bringing your knife down that way
you will get a good deal of that lit er
principle. Instead, slice off the stem
or bitter end, down as far as the seeds
begin, then you avoid getting the Bit
ter part. In preparing cucumbers,
always pare rather thick, as the bitter
principle lies next to the skin and you
don't want it.
In using macaroni always cook it in
boiling sailed water until it is tender,
then pour cold water over it. The
reason for CHS is that the hot water
bursts the kttle starch grains, making
the macaroni sticky, the cold water
washes this all away.
Sometimes an invalid will fretfully
refuse the prescribed beef tea and
toast. Try making the dish dainty as
possible. Serve the bouillon in a
pretty china cup or a tray covered
with snowy napkin, and instead of a
wedge of toasted bread make tiny
Imperial sticks. Cut the bread
into slender fingers, butter it
lightly, set it in a hot oven till deli
cately Drowned, then pile on a small
china plate, log cabin fashion.
If you don't happen to have soup
stock on hand, little beef extract
can be made into stock by adding
enough boiling water.-Good House

BUILDRG AND FILLING A SH.0.

The main thing building any -silo,
timber thai is free from rotten knots
and decayed centers. Select good
chestnut, which will out,ast most Inn
Der, and have it cut from compare
lively old, we'll matured trees. If
weN-seasoned timber there will be
little likelihood of the structure warp
ing and drawing in summer when
empty. AS afoundation for the silQ,
make an excavation fully three feet
in depth and at least two feet wider
than Che walls. Fill this excavation
with email stones, and miE enough
good cement with them to make it
solid and firm. Then top over with a
mixture of one part cement to two
parts clean, coarse sand. ON this
foundation the frame of the silo can
he built. Such flooring will be per-
canent and not give way until several
structures have EOtted and ltumbled
down. With good chestnut slaves or
lumber fitted and matched snugly
air tight. The inside of the silo should
be painted with hos gas tar and the
outside with metallic paint. The roof
should be made double, with roof
ing paper spread between the walls
and painted with graphite paint. In
this way the silo will shed water and
prove practically as tight as needed.
Tarring the inside of the silo not only
helps to exclude air and moisture, but
It prevents rotting of the wood and
destroys insects that live in many
woods. In filling the silo the corn
should be cat at the glazing period.
The cutting and filing should then be
carried on as rapidly as possible, so
that the last OF the crop will not get
too old before it can be harvested
The corn for the silo should DE planted
in rows about three feet apart and
one foot apart in row. If properly
planted and replanted early enough
every stalk should reach a good size
and produce an ear The silo should
be filed as soon as possible after the
corn has reached the proper stage,
and then if handled rightly not a
pound should be wasted. A good deal
of the waste in the silo comes from
carelessness. The rain, moisture and
air must be excluded from the silo,
but freezing and thawing should not
injure the ensilage in winter or spring.
Good ensilage should be as nourishing
and palatable in the spring as in the
early part of winter.

the amount of damage has been much
exaggerated, and one days repairs will
see her out of the harbor. The captains
report reads follows:
The steamship Tartar left Tacoma
March 5th for Hongkong direct via
Straits of Georgia, and experienced hard
northeast gales nearly all the way.
On the 21st ult., when seventy miles
east of Yozo, we encountered a field of
ice, contact with which caused some
damage to the bows. She has put in here
for temporary repairs to get to Hong
kong. G.. D. BOWLES,
Captain.
The captain said that he had no diff
Guilty in bringing the vessel into port.
There were no passengers on board and
the incident of coming in contact with
the ice did not excite any alarm. The
damage hardly exceeded some bent
plates. Mr.. Payne. the companys agent,
said the damage was exaggerated by ru-
NOR. He did not know how long the
temporary repairs would detain the Tar
tar, but both he and the captain thought
one day would be sufficient to take her
to Hongkong.
Shipping at the Railway Wharves.
BY far the busiest end of the harbor
at the present time is the Eva end. Here
is where the railway wharves are stu
ated; the great sugar wharf and the big
coal wharf.
There are now twenty-four deep-water
vessels in this harbor. OF this number
there are ten vessels at the railway
wharves: six being at the coal wharf
and four at the sugar wharf.
The British bark Antiope, Captain
Murray, at the coal wharf lacks only
l.
cargo. AS soon as she has completed
discharging she will take on ballast and
sail for Ladysmith, in the Sound, where
she will load coal and then go to Kahu-
lui for orders. The Antiope made some
thing of a record last Friday in discharg-
ing coal. She unloaded $50 tons before
noon on that day.
Next to the Antiope, at the coal wharf,
lies the British four masted bark City of
Adelaide discharging coal. Then comes
the American ship S. d. Carleton, a
wooden ship with iron masts, ready to
unload her cargo of coal as soon as
cars are put alongside. The American
ship Florence is also at the coal wharf,
discharging.
The big American ship Henry Willard,
at the coal wharf, has finished discharg-
ing coal and today will breast over to
the sugar wharf. where she will be load
ed with sugar for San Francisco. She
will get away for the Coast the latter
part of next week.
The American four-masted barkentine
Omega is discharging her cargo of coal
at the coal wharf.
At the sugar wharf are the American
bark Olympic, receiving sugar for San
Francisco; the American barkentine En-
core, discharging coal; the American
bark Hesper, discharging coal and the
American bark Moh!can, taking on SUI
