pigs weighed 81 pounds each when

Oscar Err, In an address before In.
diana dairymen, said:
The preparation Of a starter is as
follows. Select three or four pint
jars Of the best milk that comes to
the creamery. or, where opportunity
affords. select the milk from several
good COWS; cover these Jars and set
them away in a warm place until the
milk has coagulated. From these
select the one that has developed the
best sharp. acid taste. free from dis
agreeable odors and gas bubbles, and
that shows a solid curd. A can Of
skim milk should then be heated TO a
temperature not exceeding 175 deg
r. for twenty minutes and cooled to
rs or 80 deg. +. The selected jar OF
milk is then added, and, after thor.
oughly mixing, the can is set in a
place where the temperature can be
kept at rs OF so deg. + for twentyfouT
hours A wooden tank, large enough
TO hold seven or eight times the
amount of water occupied by the
starter can, answers the purpose well
for keeping this starter al UNIFORM
temperature for a long time. The en-
tire amount Of the starter should be
soured at the end of this period and
apparently Of the same flavor as that
Of the original selected jar The
starter is now ready for use, and an
amount equal TO or per cent Of
the cream to be ripened is added. BY
adding one or two quarts daily to
fresh pasteurized milk it can be per-
petuated to the extent Of eight to ten
days, depending on the cleanliness and
the care taken in pasteunzing the
skim milk.
This method Of preparing a starter
invariably brings good results. Quite
often. however, simpler methods are
proposed for preparing starters, such
as leaving some cream in the vat and
running the fresh cream with it. or
by adding buttermilk to the cream;
but these cannot be recommended, for
they too often fail in producing the
desired flavor.

We do not believe 1t TO the advan.
tage Of farmers to have butter toe
high in price, just as we do not be
lieve it to be to the advantage Of the
stock raiser to have meats too high
in price. When butter is beyond %
cents in the summer time it is at a
point where the substitutes Of butter
are certain TO be used to a consider
able extent. This is not condition
TO be hoped tor The nation is OF
more importance than the individual.
and while the butter maker wants to
get as much as possible for his prod
uct, he also has an interest in having
good wholesome butter within the
reach OF all. When butter is selling
beyond 20 cents it is at a point where
the farmer can make money il he
has the right kind Of COWS. 1t is pos
sible to keep such poor cows that
every pound of butter would cost Sc
cents, but we cannot reasonably be
expected to figure on such COWS We
take the reasonably good COW Of the
intelligent farmer and assert that
with her there Is a profit in selling
butter at 20 cents a pound In the
months when the cows have to be
kept up there is profit in selling but
ter at from 25 to 80 cents per pound,
Butter in the West should never retail
at more than 80 cents per pound. and
win not when we have disposed Of all
the poor COWS and filled their places
with good ones. The consumer Of but.
ter may think that he does not care
what kind of COWS the farmer has,
but If he but knew it he has a very
material interest in the question
Butter is high because OF the great
cost Of producing butter fat due to
poor quality in the cows.
