WOMEN BUTTERMAKERS.
Class Article the Fault Usually
Lies with the Men.

A great many farmers wives are
excellent huttermakers. We have
been called upon to judge hundreds
of samples of butter made by Wiscon-
sin ladies and have frequently found
that according to our judgment it
scored up about 30, often 81 and 9G.
In the same exhibit, however, would
be several packages that looked very
well, but that we were obliged to
score low because deficient in some of
the qualities of good butter. just a
little knowledge was lacking some
where, perhaps the one who had
charge Of the feeding and milking
was to blame; the flavor might have
been ruined by bad feed or water, or
carelessness in milking in clearly
way. No matter how expert the wife
may be in the science of buttermak.
ing, if the husband or hired man
brings the .1ilk to her contaminated
with st1ble odors, if hairs, pieces Of
ensilage, straw. ETC., are floating on
the milk, her efforts will be in vain,
and her natural woman's ambition to
do things well meets with setback
when told that the butter is good
color, sailed just right, grain good,
packages neat, but poor flavor. She
has done her part we'll and according
to rule. and the butter should be per-
feet in flavor. In our attempt to
help the woman whose butter we had
found low in flavor and who looked
the disappointment she no doubt felt,
we have sought out the husband and
learned from his methods that the
trouble was at the barn end of the
business. Much has been said about
poor butter made upon the farm, and
there is truth in the statement, but
often it is not the fault of the hard
working and painstaking woman, but
can be traced directly to feed, care of
cows and method of milking. In other
words, the man is often to blame
for the reputation his wife gets as
a buttermaker. Usually, however, the
woman buttermaker becomes edu-
Gated in what constitutes good milk,
and how it is produced, and demands
that right methods be adopted at that
end of the business. While the farm
may not be the best place in the
world to make good butter, it has
been the source of much fine butter
in the past, and will continue to be a
factor in the future. Where your
wife has charge of such work she
would insist on having the best of ia
cilities with which to work, among
which is good farm separator and a
good churn. She will not need q but
ter worker, as with little practice
butter can be sailed and worked in
the churn. If she has the right kind
of husband the chances are that
she will make good butter.-Wiscon
sin Agriculturist.

Typhoid Germs i'm butter,

To what extent may butter carry the
germs of typhoid fever? Tests have
been made to determine this question.
Sweet milk, sour milk, buttermilk and
butter were inoculated with typhoid
germs. The results showed that the
germs may remain in butter in an
active, virulent condition for at least
ten days, and, under many conditions,
for much longer period, as, for ex-
ample, butter containing a large per-
centage of buttermi.k, which is a good
culture medium. This should serve as
q warning to all makers of butter to
make sure that their water is drawn
from wells uncontaminated. If there
has been case of typhoid fever in
the home of any farmer let him make
sure that the we'll, from which is
taken water for all uses, including the
washing of butter, is absolutely pure.

WHY THE SILO PAYS.

The silo preserves absolutely all
but the roots of the corn.
Corn is worth more to the dairy as
silage than in any other form.
At least one-third more cow per
acre may be fed on silage than on
When corn is ready for the silo
there is but little farm work press
ing.
Silage can be made in sunshine or
in rain. Unlike hay, it is Independent
of the weather.
Corn can be made into silase at
less expense than it can be preserved
in any other form.
dried corn-stalks or fodder.
Corn is fed more conveniently as
silage than in any other form.
The silo stores away corn more
safely and more permanently than
any other plan. Silage is practically
fireproof, and will keep in the silo
indefinitely.
Silage is of most value when fed in
combination with other food richer
in protein. It is not a complete food.
Owing to it's succulence and bulki-
ness, silage is the best known substi-
tute for green grass, and is, therefore,
especially valuable as a winter food.

Letter From the Executive Office Of Oregon.

Pe-ru-na is known from the Allan.
tic to the Pacific. Letters Of con-

flying to the merits of Pe-ru-na as q
catarrh remedy are pouring in from
every State in the Union. DIR. Hart
man is receiving hundreds of such
letters daily. All classes write these
letters, from the highest to the lowest.
The outdoor laborer, the indoor
artisan, the clerk, the editor, the
statesman, the leacher-all agree

recognizing catarrh as their great
est enemy, are especially enthusiast

Any man who wishes perfect
health must be entirely free from
catarrh. Catarrh is well-nigh uni
versal; almost omnipresent. Peru
ma is the only absolute safeguard
known. A cold is the beginning of
catarrh. To prevent colds, to cure
colds, is to cheat catarrh out of its
victims. Pe-ru-na not only cures ca
tarrh, but prevents. Every house,

THAT TURNIPY FLAVOR.
Feeding Roots Too Literally to Dairy
Cows II the Cause of the
DisaRreeable OdOr.

There are dairymen that feed tur-
nips, cabbage and rape to their cows
without loss in the quality of their
milk and butter. On the other hand,
there are dairymen and farmers that
will not feed these, as they say their
experience has shown that it always
means products strong with the taste
of these roots and leaves. Even among
our advanced thinkers and instruct
ors we find much difference of opin-
ion. Yet it seems to the writer that
there should really be little doubt
about the facts at this late day, when
there have been SO many tests, pub
lie and private, to determine where
the truth lies. Turnips, as well as the
other things named, may be fed in
moderate quantities to the COW either
before or after milking, without bad
result. When we say small quantity
we mean in the neighborhood of
peck of turnips per animal. When
this amount is increased to two pecks
per day the danger line is being APP
preached, and at three pecks the odor
will begin to appear in the butter.
When the COWS are given all the tur-
nips they want the smell of the tur-
nips in the butter and in the milk
will be so decided that their sale
would be greatly injured. Cows can
be kept in the same stable with those
fed turnips and their milk will not
show the turnipy flavor if it is taken
from the stable as soon as drawn.
OF course, if it were left in the stable
exposed for some time to odors it
would take in those odors whether
they were of turnips or of some
thing else. It seems to follow that
if turnips are fed they must be fed in
comparatively small quantities, or
the doors must be taken from the
milk afterward. If cows are fed all
the turnips they can eat and if their
milk is rank with the flavor of tur-
nips that flavor can be removed by
pasteurizing the milk and adding
starter to it.-Farmers' Review.

he CL1NCHED IT,

Erie, Kans., Feb. 17th.-In July Of
1900, w. II. Ketchum of this place was
suddenly seized with violent pain in
his back. He says he supposed it was
"stitch" and would soon pass away.
but it lasted five months and caused
him great soreness, so that he was
barely able to keep out of bed. He be-
came alarmed and consulted doctor
which only increased his anxiety and
did him no good.
A friend who had some experience
advised him to use Dodd's Kidney
Pills. Mr.. Ketchum began with six
pills day and in o week was we'll and
the soreness all gone. However, this
did not satisfy him for he says:
II thought would clinch the cure
with another box and I did. I have
had no recurrence of the trouble since
and as this is over year ago am
thoroughly convinced that Dodd's Kid
ney Pills have completely cured me"

The Calf I'm Early Spring.

If the calf is born in early spring, as
soon as the ground is fairly warm, say
in the latter part of May, let them out
into field where thy may run, stretch
themselves, feed on the tender grass,
and wa tch them grow. Keep up the ra-
ton of milk, and don't forget the crate
of hay. The calf will nibble at this
it possible for the young COW to get
too much nice hay. So keep on feeding
the first year. If the milk fails in the
fall so that there is not enough to feed
the calves, keep on the grain ration
and add to the amount of hay. The
calf will also eat cut corn fodder by
this time.-Farm Journal.

THE LlI1LE MINSTREL,

His hands are soiled. his throat is bare.
His face Is streaked with dirt and thin,
And many q slip Is In the air
He plays upon his violin:
a sadness dwells within his eyes,
The shoes are ragged on his feet,
And scoffers stop to criticise
The little minstrel In the street.
There by the curb he plays away
Where fakes doat past and winds blow
chill,
And maybe. ~ the critics say.
he lacks the tutoreG artists skill
But now and then little strain
Played faultlessly and soft and sweet
Fioats up from where he stands out there

Combination Winter Ration,

To feed with corn fodder or ensilage,
it is advisable to use literally foods
rich in prot in, and buckwheat mid
dlings or gluten feed will proba bly,
be the cheapest for this purpose. The
rye may be ground and mixed with
the other grain, and if there is enough
of it it may well take the place of corn
meal, which this year is very high.

equal to 50 pounds of ensilage, and if

Cripples Held the stage.

A very remarkable theatrical fad
ragged in Paris 60 or 20 years ago. The
journals of the period show that the
writer's of Plays had an especial fond
ness for the representation of bodily
deformities and infirmities. It is well
known, of course, that Victor Hugo
made hunchback the hero of trag-
edy. and that one of Scribe's heroes
suffered. But the many forgotten
plays by the forgotten authors of the
period also swarm with hunchbacks,
Sufferers, the lame, the halt, the blind
and the deaf and dumb. Sometimes as
many q dozen Of these cripple plays
