Appreciates the skim MIX.

The farmers OF the corn belt are
coming more and more to appreciate
the value of their skim milk for feed
ing on their farms to their calves,
hogs and poultry. Talking with the
manager of a creamery in Northern
Illinois, a representative Of the Farm
ers' Review was told that he could
buy no skim milk for making up into
cottage cheese; for the reason that
the farmers in his vicinity would not
sell IT, They declared that II was
worth at least 90 cents per 100 pounds
for feeding TO their farm animals, and
that they preferred to keep II, even II
they could get that for il. One man
lived not far from bottling establish
ment where he could get q good price
for his whole milk, but he preferred
to haul it to a whole milk creamery
that he might get the skim milk to use
on his farm. In this same locality
one year the farmers quite generally
sold their milk for shipping to the
city. but when fall came found that
their hogs were in poor condition on
account of having been deprived of
the skim milk in the early periods or
their lives The next year they made
a change and held back the skim
milk for their own use. We doubt
very much il 20 cents per 100 pounds
represents the true value Of the skim
milk for feeding purposes. That may
be indicated by the actual chemical
content of the milk, but it has value
beyond that, which is the value that
it has in combination with corn. It
has been shown that corn is worth
very much more when fed with skim
milk than when fed alone. AS a ball
ancer for corn it has a value that the.
chemist will never be able to deter
mine.

strawberry beds may be prepared at
almost any time of year. as new beds
can be set from early spripg TO early
fall. 1t is well TO begin the work a
considerable time before the plants
are to be set, that the ground may be
worked and reworked before the plants
are put in. In month or two the
weed should have been thoroughly
killed and the ground ready to receive
the plants. Many growers sut In a
bed in June as soon as the berries are
picked and new plants have begun TO
form rapidly. The best method OF
planting at that time is to use
spade, pushing It deeply into the
ground and working II back and forth.
In the opening thus made spread the
roots in the shape of fan, and pack
the soil firmly about them with the
foot. When the bed is set the soil
should be well cultivated throughout
the season. The ground should not be
allowed to form crust at any time.
The runners should not be permitted
TO occupy the space between the rows.
This may be kept clear of runners
and OF plants as well as OF weeds by
cultivation.

Demand for Sweet Cream Butter.

Sweet cream butter is butter that
has not been salted and not butter
made from unripened cream. That
the demand for this kind of butter is
increasing is a remarkable fact The
creamery at Ringwood, Illinois, is ma
king about 10000 pounds OF butter a
month and all, except that used by
the patrons, is being taken by a large
dairy company Of Chicago. Gradually
there has been an increase in the de-
mand for unsalted butter, till now
two-thirds of all the butter supplied
by that creamery is of this kind. That
is. about 10000 pounds of unsalted
butter is being supplied by this one
creamery every month and there are
numerous other creameries making
some sweet cream butter At first the
demand was from the foreigners al
most wholly, and especially from the
Jews. Indeed, the Jews were such
great users of this unsalted butter
that the factory men dubbed il Jew
butter. But ii is now losing that
characterization, for the reason that
many native Americans are using ii
instead of the salted article We have
supposed that the demand for the
fresh article was to be confined to
European countries like France, but
we are evidently mistaken. The but
ter is making great headway in Eng,
land, where the demand has always
previously been for salted butter. This
in our country at least marks a new
phase of creamery development.
