The Vinita daily chieftain. [volume] (Vinita, Indian Territory [Okla.]) 1902-1913, 1903-05-08


The greatnumber Of single state
huod gatherings which are being
projected in Oklahoma and the
Indian Territory show that the
people of those localities are arous-
ed to the necessity Of combining
their forces and disregarding the
designs of the politicians. The
action Of the recent Congress indi-
Gates that the separate statehood
idea has many powerful enemies
all over the county. Even the
people Of the states west Of the
Mississippi are unwilling that the
two territories shall be admitted
separately. The hostility to that
idea east Of the river is over
whelming.
Oklahoma and its neighbor,
therefore, are acting sensible
part in determining to bring un-
ion between the two commune
ties on the question Of admission.
If they ask for admission as sin
gle state they will undoubtedly
get it in the coming session Of
Congress. United, the new state
would be about the same area as
it's neighbors. Separately they
would be as dispr portionate
among the states Of their section
as Rhode Island and Delaware
are among the Atlantic seaboard
commonweslths. United, more
over, they would have a popula-
tion Of about /, COO, 900, and would
start out with five members of the
popular branch Of Congress-.
The politicians will work
against the single statehood idea
This will be true Of those OF each
of the territories. The more states
there are the larger the number Of
officers will be, and the better the
chance for all the aspirants get
ting some post. But the masses
Of the people of the two territories
are not looking for offices Of any
sort. They want the advantages
which statehood brings, and they
want them az soon as possible
The way to get them quickly is
by urging a union between the two
communities and its admission as
a single state. A large majority
of the people Of each, it Is safe TO
say, are in favor Of union already.
They should keep THE idea at the
front, aud mike an appeal TO Con-
gress on this line In this way
they can get into the Union in the
coming winter, aud will start out
as a state under Indefinitely better
than if each entered as a
seperate community, besides get
ting in much earlier -Globe Dem

FOOD AFFECTS BUTTER,
Ahis Fact Is Now Recognized by scf-
enttsts and Dalrymen Here
and Abroad.

the quality of the butter can be always
affected in that way. For this reason

1ound by Swedish professor that cows
exposed to cold and wet weather give
butter rats that have in them COM
P2ratlVely small amount Of buIyric acid.
ETe1 the Dutch butter made in the fall
OF the year when the nights are cold an6
weather conditions bad have such a
small amount Of volatile acids in them
that it has ofen been supposed that the
butter was mixed with oleomargarine.
We have not infrequently seen butter
in this country that appeared to have
no more flavor than oleo. In fact the

TIMELY DAIRY NOTES.

Beat time, but don't beat the cow.
The summer silo is cheaper than pas
ture any day.
1t is not a good plan to paint silo
on the inside.
II you trust too much to pasture, dry
weather may make havoc with your
profits.
Keep the COW stable whitewashed and
have no manure about to impart its eff
fluvia to the milk.
Water the calf 1t gets dry. Have
some shade for it and some grass or
hay; it will say thank you by growing
and will make better COW or OK.
There is but one criterion of fine
quality of cream; it must be sweet and
fresh, so that it can be pasteurized and
cooled. 1t should be hauled every day
in summer and every other day in VIM
ter, to the skimming or cream receiving
station.
To make cow specially profitable
for beef, while supplying milk for a
small family, let the COW be disposed
by nature to heavy quarters, as Here

HOME DAIRY NOTES.
Success in Butter-SIa,∈s q Depends on
Cleanliness and Proper Hand
ling of Cream.

One of the most important requisites
of good butter is perfect cleanliness,
not only in the dairy but in The mill.-
ing. A careless mixer will often set
trash into the milk, that will change
flavor of both milk and butter, and all
the extra care that can be given il in
the dairy will not out root this I'M
pleasant odor. Then again there are
weeds which the COWS get hold Of which
will give a most unpleasant flavor to
the milk, and a change of pasture is
often necessary. Those who have the
care of the cows are just as often re-
Sponsible for the inferior butter as the
dairy maid. The old-fashioned spring
house is but rarely met with these days,
but the possessor Of good spring
house. where there is constant stream
of clear, cold water running through,
has something to be very thankful for
and all the modern appliances for MAX
ing sweet butter can hardly equal this
Some dairy writer's say that the cream
should be churned sweets have tried
this plan, but find that the sweetest
butter and the greatest amount can be
made from the ripened cream, but over
ripe cream has very unpleasant flavor.
When the cream is churned sweet, or
when it has just begun to sour, very
small returns will be received, and after

awhile great deal of cream will be

better than in the deep receptacles, and

ehurner usually allows hot water to do
the work, and the result is white and

BETTER THAN BARRELS.
.Bushel Boxes for Apples Are Becom-
ing Popular in All Parts of the
United States.

West of the Rocky mountains boxes
are used in which to pack apples and
never barrels, and east of there they
are becoming more popular every year.
There are several objections to the bar
rel as package for this fruit, among
them being that consumers in the city
do not want so much fruit at one time
as it contains. They rarely have space
in their storerooms for a barrel, and
few have cool enough places to keep
apples long, before they will rot. These
facts often deter our hest customers, the
city people, from getting apples in suf-
ficient quantities to induce them to use
them literally. Some of the exporters
of apples to foreign countries greatly
prefer boxes, for they suit the trade
there and pack closer in the holds of
ships than barrels; where it is space
that is charged for rather than weight.
However, all who have tried boxes are
not agreed as to their use in preference
to barrels. although most Of them are.
There are differences in the sizes and
shapes of the boxes in use, but that

A Story with n Moral.

A few days ago two farmers came to
town and both brought butter for sale.
One OF the farmers had his product
pressed into neat, compact half-pound
packages, and he readily sold it ct 25
cents pound. He said that he could
not meet the demand for his butter. The
other had his butter In a bucket, and II
looked soft and watery. After tramping
around town from place to place trying
to sell he gave up In disgust and said it
was no use to bring butter to town to
sell. as nobody would buy it. This little
relation OF facts carries with it moral.
