Teachers Institute.

The Custer County Institute
for teachers will convene in this
city, July 18th. Snpt. Lewis
has arranged for a three weeks
session. We understand that
able instructors have been secur-
ed and that an effort will be
made to make it one of the most
profitable sessions for teachers
that has ever been held.
A feature of the Institute will
be the presentation of practical
methods and theories of teaching
along with the text book matter,
which will not only be of great
value to the beginner but to all
who have a desire to keep
abreast with the times of the pro.
gressive age in which we live.
Every teacher in the county
should avail herself of this OPP
portunity for better preparation
for her work. Better wages are
being paid for good teachers.
The better equipped one is the
better is the chance of a good
position.
Three weeks is very short
time to gain great deal and nc
one should defer the date Of
starting. In the past number
have waited until the second OF
third week before enrolling, thei
main object apparently being t.
secure an enrolment so as t,
comply with the law. In al
such cases the teacher is tn
looser. Something good can b.
secured every day and every da,
you are absent just that mucl
will be lost.

CHEESE MAKING.
A Profitable Farm Home Industry OF
= Very Old Fashion.


The encouragement of the home in
dustry of cheesemaking on the farm is
urged by Mrs.. Nathan B. Cox of New
Hampshire Ii American Cultiyator.
From her experience. she says. it has
become almost a lost art on the farm,
so few Ieople being found who under
stand tile method of converting the
milk into that delicious substance call
ed farmers cheese. Creamery butter
grows more and more popular and COM
mands higher price usually than that
made on the farm, but not so with fac
tory cheese, for but few people can be
found who do not prefer the domestic
cheese to that turned out at the fac
tory.
Very few farmers can afford the APP
paratus for cheesemaking which fac
tories have and must therefore labor at
a disadvantage to obtain as good re-
suits. It would not pay to set up a
cheese factory at home, but it has been
proved that good cheese can be made
and cured on the farm with but little
outlay at the beginning.
Our method of making cheese will
without doubt seem old fashioned to
up to date cheese manufacturers, and
SO 1t is. We know nothing Of the mod
ern way except by reading, and we
learned the same process our grand
mothers used. But as the cheeses
proved good and very salable, and,
knowing no other way, we have contin-
ued in the same routine, trying each
year to improve by experience. For
merly all cheeses made were kept at
least year before being placed on
the market, but now new cheese is in
more demand and yields more profit to
the maker.
Few farmers wives in New Hamp-
shire make cheese, but if they realized
that they could make from 30 to so per
cent more by so doing than to make
butter they would be ready for a
change. Butter is usually low In sum-
mer and especially In late spring, but
cheese can be made then the best Of
any time. One must expect some fail
uress but do not get discouraged. Watch
the process carefully, noting what eff
Tects certain conditions of the milk or
c9lfdy have on the cheese and avoid maxi
Ing fthe saRe mistake twice If possible.
