The question Of keeping the milk cans
covered while in transit from the farm
to the factory is an important one, and
our buttermakers should take a great
er interest in having this done. Milk
is subjected to a variety of abuses up
on the farm and should not be COM
PEELED to suffer still further punishment
while on the way to the creamery when
it is possible by means of little atten-
ton to deliver it in the same condition
in which it left the dairy. The butter
maker who will may succeed in Undue
ing his patrons to blanket their cans,
and this fact has been impressed upon
the mind of writer in Creamery Jour-
nal by observation made during cream
cry inspection work. At some creamer-
les we find, he says, every load Of milk
well covered with blankets and at 9TH
err factories in the same locality an en-
tire absence Of such care upon the part
of the patrons. Now, why is this true?
Is 1t reasonable to suppose that all Of
the careful dairymen of the locality
have centered their patronage upon one
institution and that the careless ones
are ali living in one neighborhood? No;
not by any means. 1t is simply due to
the fact that both factories are not Op
Grated by the same kind of butter
maker. Boys, this is matter which
you may control. You may not be able
to keep fully Informed Of the methods
used upon the farm, but you certainly
can remain Informed upon this matter.
Insist that the milk shall be delivered
to the factory in the same condition in
which it leaves the farm, and this can
only be accomplished by keeping the
cans we'll covered, winter and summer.

selves ahead Of the army and resolved
to strike for big stake. They made
sudden attack on the town at day
light and then dashed in and made for
the bank. They broke in the door with
an AK, obliged the banker to unlock his
safe and something like 100000 was
carried away as they retreated.
A day later they bundled up 100000,
strapped it on the back of an old lame
mule and hired a farmer to deliver the

Accompanying the money was note,
which advised the general to bride the
Confederates to keep ahead of him and
do no fighting. AS his military maneu-
vers had been checkmated right along

it was hard shot at him. The story

A Striking Presentiment.

It is curious how future events are
occasionally prefgured by some an
ticipatory token which, unlike PRESENT.
ments and premonitory dreams, makes
perhaps no impression at the time on
those whom they concern.
Here is a striking. example: One of
Charles Dickens sons, from some
childish oddly of expression in his
large, wondering eyes, was given by
his father the very unique sobriquet of
the Ocean Specter," by which he was
always called. The great novelist new
CT knew of the weird significance his
playfully bestowed appellation was to
bear, for he himself had been nearly
two years in his grave at the time his
little Ocean Specter," then lieuten-
ant in the royal navy, died and was
buried at sea.

THE CHEESEMAKER

The problems which confront the
cheesemaker are among the most per-
! picking of any relating to agricultural
practice. He must not only provide
| against various contingencies and de-
| fects which affect the curd before it is
| placed on the curing Shelves but must
also in the manufacture lay the foun-
dation for a series of complex chem
ical and physical transformations
from which arise the perfect texture,
the nutty flavor and the easy digesti-
bility Of well made and we'll cured
cheese
In these processes both inanimate
and animate forces are at work, and
their character, amounts and interac-
tons materially influence the charac-
ter of the cheese. 1t is consequently
upon knowledge of these agencies and
their relations that scientific explana-
ton of the processes OF cheesemaking
and cheese ripening depends, and this
knowledge can only come through
long, careful and deep study
Such investigations have been in
progress for many months at the New
York agricultural experiment station,
Geneva, and the results, as announced
in various bulletins Of the station, have
excited great scientific interest
These various bulletins have now
been condensed in popular edition."
in which the principal points Of gener-
al interest developed in the study are
stated in simple terms
New York Greatest Cheese State.
According to a report from Albany,
New York state provides nearly one
half Of the total amount of cheese pro-
duced in this country. During 1902
the production was 123, 1881, SIC pounds
and Of butter 1919, 794 pounds. In
1892 the cheese production was $780,
991,310 pounds, but the production of
butter that year was only 19,497, 1857
pounds.
The commissioner says that the con-
sumption Of pure milk is increasing
with great rapidity. While in 1884 the
milk consumed in the city of New York
in one form or another was 529,954
forty quartscans, In 1894 it was 1,O39,-
454 forty quart cans and in 1908 1,734,-
953 forty quart cans.

Should it not therefore install at St

the Importance of it's position in the

should set aside enough money to make
such an exhibit Agricultural interests
of Pennsylvania cannot all be repre-
scented as they should be at st. Louis
because there is not money enough to
do it, but the leading interests should

when the Churning Is Poor.
A correspondent of Hoard's Dairy
man, writing from Fort Edward, N Y,
says: I would like to tell the people
who have trouble with their churnings
the way manage. We run quite thin
cream in winter and cool the cream
just just as soon as it comes from the
separator and keep it cool in a clean,
sweet pail until 1 have enough to
churn. Never freeze it or keep more
than three days, then set the pail in "a
pan of warm water and stir it until it
is IS degrees, then add cup of butter
milk to each gallon of cream. Keep it
warm beside the stove and stir every
little while. In twenty-four hours it
should be thick and sour enough to
churn.
If the cows are advanced in lactation
it will have to be warmed to 60 de-
grees. Never fill the churn over half
the butter will come quick and be frm
and gather UP good.

Dairying In California.

in regions Of varying con-

may be taken as best evidence of the
possibilities of dairying when the agri-
cultural area of this state shall be fully
developed, says the San Francisco
Chronicle. Those who are most en-
thusiastic over the future of dairying
In California hold that the industry is
only in its infancy and that intensive
cultivation in the future will be accom-
panied by great advance In the dairy |
industry. The dairy products of Cali |

SMALL FIRE
LAST NIGHT
LYCBTT PLACE IN DANGER-NEW
FIRE TRUCK WILL SOON BE
AVAILABLE TO DEPARTMENT.

A fire occurred last evening in the
Kinau street residence of James Lycett.
The alarm was turned in by telephone
before o'clock. The Makih fire en-
CINE company responded and soon es-
tinguished the blaze. The fire original
ed in I, pantry where a can of kerosene
was kept. 1t is thought that spOnta-
neous combustion due to oily rags or
clothes, caused the fire. The wood
work in the pantry was badly charred
but no other damage was done the
house.
AN arrangement has been effected
between the public works department
and the fire department whereby the
former will secure a fine flag pole and
the fire department have the new hook
and ladder truck located in a place.
where it can be used in case of neces-
sity. Owing to lack of funds, Chief
Thurston has never been able to put
the new truck into commission. 1t has
been housed in one of the government
sheds near the fish market These sheds
are soon to be torn down in order that
the government can have those sites
in the construction of the proposed
new slips on the water front The
truck, which Is fine apparatus, has
been useless in its present location.
In the rear of the Central Fire Sta
tion on Beretania street is a 100 foot
flag pole. The fire commissioners have
presented this pole to the public works
department which will remove the pole
from the engine house yard and erect
the pole in the Capitol grounds. A
shed will be erected in the Central Fire
station yard, as there will be room with
the flag pole removed, and the new
truck will be kept in this shed. The
idea of Chief Thurston in having the
truck quartered near the Central Sta
ton, is to have the truck in a place
where it will be available in case of
emergency. Should any serious fire
occur when the truck would be impera-
lively required Chief Thurston could
get enough men together to take the
truck to the required place.

Ashley's first report to the Mainland of

The "te" of the first word means "a, in

''Ro" means rs, giving the temperature

well by the perspiring population of
Honolulu. The Y means weather clear
and 'RO" gives the maximum temper
allure of the previous twelve hours as

shows wind velocity to be miles per

A GIRL WANTED
IN THIS FAMILY

A remarkable condition in the family
of Captain Roesch, master OF the bark
entine Wrestler, is reported to exist.
Female children are absolutely I'M
known to the men of the family.
According to a story told while Cap
tain Roesch was here last month with
his vessel discharging lumber, for gem
erations back every child born to the
family has been a male
Captain ROesch of the Wrestler is one
of four brothers. He has three children
and all of them are boys. one of his
brothers had fourteen children and an
other had nine children. Every one of
them were boys. These boys have also
married and have families but in every
instance the children have been males.
In no recent instance has a female child
been born to the men of the Roesch line.
Captain Roesch says that this remark
able phenomenon has existed for gener-
atoms in his family. He says that it had
come to be family tradition that a
girl child is never born to the name Of
ROesch.

MAY OISMANTLE
BARKENTINE AMELIA
REPORTED THAT A WELL KNOWN
LUMBER VESSEL WILL SOON BE
PUT OUT OF COMMISSION.

It is not unlikely that the present
trip of the barkentine Amelia will be
her last. According to the report on
the water front her owners propose to
dismantle her ard sell the hulk on her
return to California.
The Amelia is not discharging lum-
Der at the Allen and Robinson wharf.
She is to sail in ballast fer Eureka when
her cargo is out. The probabilities
are that she will be put out OF com
mission on her return to California.
There is possibility however mat she
may be sent here with another cargo
before being dismantled.
The Amelia is quite an old vessel.
She has been in the coastwise trade for
many years, and has brought many mil
lions of feet of lumber to the Hawaiian
Islands. She was fast vessel in her
day and has many many crack trips.
She is still good sailor.
