Farm BUTTER MAKING.
Unless Temperature of Cream II Prop.
er1y Controlled a Good Article
M Cannot BE Made.

The time of the year is now here when
IL requires the best skill and conveni-
ences for making high grade butter. Dur
ing the early spring and late fall the
climate in Illinois is almost perfect for
making butter. The early winter wealth
er Is such that 1t Is difficult to control
the temperature Of the cream and un-
less 1t is properly controlled fine and
uniform article cannot be made.
The time is past when 1t will pay for
the ordinary farmer to make butter un-
less he has practically all of the conve-
niences found in an ordinary creamery.
Cream should not be held more than two
days, and better butter is made when
churned every day. The important
point during winter is to have the cream
properly ripened before churning, and
the ripening should not take more than
20 to "a hours. No rufe can be made as
to the temperature at which cream
should be held, but It can easily be deter
mined by experience. In my dairy room
in ordinary winter weather, IL the cream
is warmed to 80 degrees one morning
1t will be all right to churn it the next
morning.
When separator is used. the cream
should be churned at lower tempera-
ture than cream from Cooley or shotgun
cans. Separator cream should be
churned at about 5S degrees, or even low

Better have cream little too warm and
properly ripened when ready to churr
than not to have IL cured or ripened, be.
cause 1t is an easy matter to use ice ant
cool 1t properly. 1t is very difficult
matter to warm half ripened cream
without injuring the grain and flavor o
the butter. II is also very difficult tc

butter, but be sure and watch the temper

them, SO that the knife will not be
dulled when cutting them. If not
ready to use them at once they should
be kept In moss or sawdust in moist
place at temperature as near 80 de-
grees as possible.
Scions should be cut and stored in
the same way. The scions should be

side shoots of trees that are producing
large crops Of desirable fruit.
Get twine or coarse, strong thread

satisfactory. After grinding, the edge
should be made fine and keen upon a
hone or oil stone, so as to make clean

condition of the knife than any other
one thing.
When all Is ready with roots, scions,

scion Is then taken up and similar
cut and tongue made, Fig a, when
the root and scion are placed together
and the two tongues pressed firmly as
in Fig. s.
The next step Is tying the gratis

covering the whole with the strips OF

After the CRAFTS are all made and

HINTS FOR COwKEEPERS.

The COW, as we'll as any other farm
stock, will pay better profit II treated
kindly.
A COW is profitable just as long as she
gives a profitable return for the food
she consumes.
The best cream raising can only be
secured by keeping the milk sweet as
long as possible.
LOSS Of flesh and shrinkage of milk fol-
lows neglect, and starvation follows ra-
tions of improper food.
A combination of bran, oil meal and
corn meal makes one Of the best rations
for dairy cows in wipter.
Garget most often sets In after calv-
ing, and this is nearly always due to a
failure to get the udder dry.
Milk regularly twice day. II COW
does not give sufficient amount Of milk
to warrant this, let her go dry.
Many of the cows kept on the farm
cannot either by feed or care, be induced
to yield a profitable amount OF milk. The
sooner this class Is fattened and mar
keted, the better for the profits of the
farm.
The best foods to make blood are the
best for milk production, and the COW to
make good milk needs good blood. That
can best and cheapest be made by gener-
Gus, comfortable treatment comfortable
quarters, pure air, pure water and whole
some, nutritious food.-Kimball's Dairy

The Morning Glory Pest.

An Indiana farmer writes the Chi
cago Record-Herald that he considers
cattle the best destroyers of morning
glories. He says. Pasture such a
field by cattle; they are fond of the
leaves and vines. and will not allow
the roots to send out mass of long
INTERVENING vines. but will nip the
plant close to the ground, killing the
vitality of the roots In one or two sea-
sons. Another way is to seed such a
field in grass. This should be sown
with a nurse crop, which ought to be
cut for hay. The next years hay will
contain very few morning glory vines
the third year none, provided the
grasses used contained a good proper
ton of such grasses as red top, or
chard grass or bluegrass. The grasses
kill the pest"

Alonzo Grover Brunner.

Alonzo G.. Brunner died at the home
of his parents on W. South street
Friday, April 10, 1904. He returned
home from Los Angeles, CAL, where
he had been for the benefit of his
health, on Tuesday, April IL.
Although very weak when he reached
home, the few hours of life that re.
manned to him were great comfort
to the members of the family. In his
death we have lost young man who
was held In very high esteem by all
who knew him. His Christian charac-
ter was exceptionally beautiful and
his kind and loving nature made for
him host of friends.
He was born in Hillsboro, July 25,
1884, and united with the Presby-
terian church when not quite eleven
years of age. He seemed even as
child to find great enjoy ment in the
privileges of the Christian life and
was faithful and consistent in the
fulfillment of its obligations.
He graduated from the Hillsboro
High School in 1902. Until the time
of his graduation he had never ex-
perienced days sickness, but in
August of that year his health began
to fail and in December 1903 he left
home in search of a helpful climate,
visiting Los Angeles, CAL, and other
places but derived no benefit. When
1t seemed to him that his sickness
must terminate fatally he greatly
desired to be at home and in the
midst of his friends when the end
came. His wish was gratified and
when the Master called him he re.
sponded to the call with a beautiful
faith and trust. The funeral services
was conducted by the Rev. Warren
b. Durham and the Rev. George
Hughes, of the United Brethren
church of this city, in the First Pres.
byterian church on Sunday, April
II, at 2:3O p. IN.

pure and upright life by the members
OF his class and one of his school.

when Butter Is Mottled.

The cause of notifies in butter Is
still not entirely determined, They
may arise from several causes. One
of the principal of these is the un-
equal mixing of the salt with the but
ter. Sometimes, too, there are dried
flakes of cream on the sides OF the
vessels in which the cream is held,
and these dried flakes are too
hardened to dissolve In the cream. A
proper handling of the cream before
urning and proper adding of the salt
aft ,r churning will generally remove
the difiiculty.-Farmers' Review.
