feed as high as 80 pounds of skim

HINTS FOR DAIRYMEN.
Geld Curing oS Cheese Not Only Inn
DzDves the Quality But Also
Increases Quantity.

Gold curing increases the quantity of
oAscee to be sold and improves its quail
ity. These facts have been proved sew
eral times on a small scale at expert
ment stations and elsewhere; and some
cheese handlers have profited by in
stalling some form of refrigeration in
their curing rooms; but no extensive,
carefully controlled tests on CONNER
cial scale have been reported prior to
tests recently completed by the New
York state experiment station In CO.
operation with the United States de-
partment of agriculture, which includ-
ed about 16 tons of cheese, made at Diff
ferent factories in New York. Pennsyl-
vania and Ohio. and stored in the rooms
OF commercial refrigerating plant in
New York city. A similar experiment,
giving very concordant results, was car
ried out in the west by the Wisconsin
station and the department
The cheeses were made and stored un-
Ger conditions securing uniformity Of
compared lots, and were kept at 40. so
or go degrees until cured They were
scored at the outset and at intervals
during the test by commercial experts.
and were also weighed and sampled for
chemical analysis.
The average scores of the cheeses
were: At 40 degrees, 95.7; at so, 94.2;
and at 60, 91.7; and the increased mar
ket value at the end of 20 weeks, count
ing quality alone, was so cents hundred
for the cheese cured at 40 degrees. But
holding at low temperatures also re-
tains the water in the cheese, giving an
additional quantity to sell; hence 100
pounds of cheese cured at 40 degrees
was worth $1.0S more than that cured
at so degrees. Larger cheeses lost less
in proportion to their weight than small
ones; and coating the cheese with par
atm decreased very decidedly the loss
OF weight. One hundred pounds of
cheese, paraffined and cured at 40 de-
grees, would sell, at prices prevailing
during this test, for S176 more than the
same initial weight of cheese unpar-
affined and cured at 60 degrees.-Coun-

have they made their money? How
have they been able to produce the

to that very small country? They

PROGRESS IN DAIRYING.

Der OF Localities,

At the recent annual meeting OF the

n. Dean said: True progress cannot
take place in the dairy business, or in
any other business. unless we have the
people educated. And one of the
things which we have been developing

dairy business, and one which we

The value of CIernnne..

The majority Of cellars are very i'm

S1me for keeping milk therein varies
on nearly all farms. The success in
Che creameries is due to the observ-
-ance of proper degree of tempera-
cure, and until farmers become more
observing OF that point they will con-
sinue to have difficulties. One of the
obstacles is uncleanliness in the sta

st. Louis, Mo-, Oct. Is.-Because of the
serious illness of Archbishop Kane he was
relieved of the active work of this arch
diocese several months ago by Bishop
Glcnnon of Kansas City, who was ap-
pointed coadjutor
Archbishop Kane is one Of the most
widely known and most popular prelates
in the United States. Born in Martins
burg, Berkeley county, w. Va, OH May
3rst, IS4i. OF Irish parents. he received
in early life the training which made his
work in the church such that he forged
his way to the front quickly.
His preparatory education for the priest
hood was received at the St. Charles sem
mary at Ellcott, Nd, where he was
graduated in 1885,,
He then entered St. Mary's college at
Baltimore, which institution was the scene
of his higher studies. He was ordained
a priest by Archbishop Spaulding on July
2, 1866.
As priest his early work was in the
territory along the Potomac river. In
May, 1875, he was consccrated bishop of
Wheeling. He ruled that diocese until
June IS, 1898, when he was appointed
coadjutor to the most Rev. Richard Peter
