The great difficulty with most butter

prehend that It is a certain kind OF
bacteria that largely controls the ia.
yor. Even cleanliness in every sense
of the word does not always result in
milk souring with the best flavor, as
nil cows are usually MIXED In the
stable during the winter months and
in real warm barn We usually nnd
that the putrefactivc bacteria arc
found in abundance. These get into
the milk while milking and contain.

cry. A maker cannot tell by the taste
or smell just how the milk is going
TO sour.
The introduction of starters or
pure cultures is berefting the dairy
business of the country by introduc.
ing higher skilled labor. The igno.
rant, careless maker who does every.
thing by chance rather than by rule
will soon be relegated to the rear. In
his place will come the intelligent.

The Bacon Idea.

Prof. Thomas Shaw: In our judg.
mcnt no more important question con.
fronts the growers OF swine to-day.
The operation Of breeds is only lit.
tie pigmy compared with the gigantic
question OF lard and bacon swine. II
means more to the country than many
shall ever know. Millions in our juds.
ment arc bound up In Il. since II
bears directly on the stamina OF swine.
upon their prolincacy. upon correct
methods of feeding swine and also
the soil. and upon providing for man
the kind of pork which is most TO his
liking. But do not look for the bacon
idea TO prevail In this country. as It
docs in Canada or Denmark for many
years to come. II indeed ever. cspcci.
ally In tho corn belt. do not. there.
fore, plead for the bacon idea to cap.
ture the British bacon market As those
countries have. but rather because OF
what there is in the idea for us. My
contention is that We can grow bacon
pork more cheaply pound Tor pound
than we can grow lard pork. And
when we do grow II we have super.
ior quality OF meat. We can grow
bacon more chcaply because swine
thus grown are more prolific. they are
less liable to diseases, and can better
resist disease when It comes. Such
pork is more reiished by the consumer
and will eventually command higher
price and the notifications necessary
in growing Il will have benehcent In.
f,uence on the industry and on the
maintenance Of fertility in land.

communication from the Now

says: The choice OF feeding stuffs to
supplement farm crops Is u matter OF
exceedingly great importance to the
dairyman and stock keeper. The

name given to n feed was q fair index
to Its composition and feeling value.

these grains left as by.products In the

liquors. OF starch. sugar and glucose.
OF breakfast foods or OF vegetable oils.

cling compounds. Led only by his
eye. touch or taste (hclpfui rs these
arc to the purchaser who Is guided by

The Farm Hen.

The farm hen Is one OF the Import
mt factors OF tho farm. though she Is
generally neglected and sometimes
forgotten. The writer knew of one
poor hen that was SO far forgotten
that when m open space under the
house was closed up to keep out the
winter winds blddy was made prls.
oncr. She was not missed from tho
flock. or. II missed. was not looked
for. After about six weeks noise
under the house attracted tho atcn.
ton Of tho residents and an investl.a.
tion revealed tho poor hen. S,ill alive.
but hardly more than skin and bones.
Scattered about wcro 10 csEs. On
tho day Of her imprisonment she had
gone under there to lay. and.
after dcpositinE her csg. had
found tho exit closed. She had mp.
parcntiy laid most Of those eggs after
the time Of being Imprisoned. II
seemed almost unbelievable that she
should have lived 80 long without food
and water. Perhaps she was ablo to
ind bug now and then. for the pris'
on was not entirely dark. II Is
strange. too. that she could and did
recover from her cancellation. This
shows the hen In tho role of 4 slayer.
There arc few animals on tho farm
that can endure the neglect that tho
hen gets and stiil prove profitable.
What will shc do II properly ,akcn
care of! Tho farm hen Is tho most
potent factor In the creation OF
poultry products. We read about the
snormoua quantity of sEEs and fowl
flesh consumed In this country year
by year. Let II not be forgotten that
the farm hon Ia tho chief producer OF
these. tho hen Of the specialist cut
,ing a small figure by the side OF her.

The Pigs.

II. c. Hoffman: BE sure and give
the pigs plenty of exercise. AMI as
soon as possible the little pigs should
be taught to eat. by providing a little
pen wherein they can get cracked rorn
and sweet milk, they will soon be
able TO get away with lots of feed
and will transform 1t into bone and
flesh, thereby decreasing the drain on
the SOW. II the sow does not lose in
fesh they should be allowed to sucl 10
for eight weeks: but this must be
governed by conditions. One of the
great secrets Of successful hog rails.
ing is to watch both ends Of the h ~
aAd feed accordingly.
