There was couple Of gentlemen
present at the farmers institute who
wanted to talk creamery to our people
but the minute they got started the
boys commenced to leave the room.
They were all from Missouri and had
been shown before, our creamery pro-
ject Of several years ago being still
fresh in their minds. However, the
Courier believes that a creamery
would be a good thing If managed
properly and the time is not far dis
tant when we shall have one. Condi-
tions are entirely different from what
they were years ago when the country
was not half as thickly settled as now.
The only business way to run cream
cry is for some man to put in the
plant and run 1t himself in a business
like manner. Too many cooks spoil
the broth and too many interested in
running the creamery would spoil
that too. There is no doubt but what
10 creamery would pay If properly con-
Quoted.

General Gordon a British officer who
has written book on the Sikhs, the
celebrated fighters of India, says that
the signs by which you may. know
Sikh are these: He never cuts his hair,
but wears his beard looped up over his
ears; he never smokes nor touches to-
bacco, because that is the privilege Of
the Mohammedan, but he is allowed to
drink spirits and is great consumer
of opium. Finally, he must have about
his person the five KS, which General
Gordon thus enumerates: Kes, long hair
of the head, as the Sikh must never
cut his hair or beard; kangi, comb to
secure the hair tied up in a knot on top
of the head; kaceh, breaches reaching
to the knee; kard knife. and kirpan,
sword.

QueerIy Procured Evidence.

Many years ago a ship was chased
at sea on the suspicion that she was
a SLAYER. During the pursuit her cap
tain dropped something overheard.
When overhauled the old tub was TAX
en- to Port Royal for trial. There was
nothing on board to sustain the charge
of slave dealing, and there seemed ev-
cry likelihood of it's owner recovering
damages for illegal seizure and deten-
ton. But another ship had passed IN
the night in the wake of the others.
She had witnessed the chase and flight,
but had stopped to catch shark by
the way. In the stomach of the shark
the sailors found a tin box In the box
were the papers of the fugitive vessel.
These proved her to be SLAYER of the
most unequivocal character, and upon
their evidence she was condemned and
confiscated.

Eugenie and the Cholera.

When Napoleon III. was at the re-
NTH of his power there was terrible
outbreak of cholera in France. Every
day the Empress Eugene visited the
hospitals to do what she could by su-
perintendence and example to forward
the noble work of allaying the suffer
ings of the stricken. One morning a
parish priest rushed into the ward
whereethe empress was ministering to
dying man.
ooh, your majesty" said the priest
1.-TWO hours ago my curate was break
fasting with me, and now he is dead''
The empress smiled calmly. THAT is
well,' said she.
"Well?" echoed the priest
Eyes. it is we'll. When once cholera
becomes as violent as this is it ceases"
The empress was right. From that
day the plague abated.

"Some years ago l found myself In

when the cholera was raging in that
capital" said traveller.
1t happened that as l walked along
a public thoroughfare one day while
the plague was at it's height / saw a
man fall to the ground, and sur
missed that he had been stricken with
the dread disease. Before reaching
him noticed a policeman approach
the unfortunate and administer a
drink t. him from bottle which
had no doubt contained a restorative
or some kind of medicine. AT the
same time the policeman blew his
whistle for an ambulance.
The vehicle came very quickly, and
yet before it arrived the man was
dead, and it was corpse that was
removed. | remarked to the officer
that the medicine had been efAnO avail.
Certainly not senor,' he answered.; it
was not medicine I gave him, but a
deadly poison. That is the way we
have to do now to check the spread of
the cholera. Besides, the man would
soon have died anyway.

HOW TO MAKE BUTTER.
Simple Directions For the Handling
of Milk and Cream.

Replying to an inquiry as to butter
says in Rural New Yorker:
1t would require pages to go into all
the details of buttermaking, but some
simple directions may be of service
Whatever the vessels are you use in
which to keep the milk, get them into
cold water Gce cold is better just as
soon as possible after milking, so that
the cream will begin to rise at once
and will not be disturbed Too many
people allow the milk to stand around
half hour or more, absorbing bad
odOrs and stirring up the cream that
has begun to rise. We want all the
cream.
You can skim at twelve hours from
setting if the water was cold and the
milk put in at once after milking. After
skimming, keep the cream cool until
you are ready to ripen it. We should
churn at least twice week, and three
times is preferable. as old cream will
not make as good quality of butter
The day before you are to churn put
the cream all in one receptacle and
warm it gradually to 20 degrees. Add
to the cream Il half pint of good but
termilk for every ten quarts of cream.
Stir the cream several times, SO that it
will ripen uniformly, and if kept in a
COOL airy place, in the morning it
should be ready to churn. The top
will have smooth, leathery appear
ance if it is all right. Your eye and
taste will soon show you.
If your churning is done in cool
room have the cream at 81 degrees
when you churn or 60 degrees if the
room is not cold. You can hardly get
along without a dairy thermometer,
which you can buy of any dairy sup
ply house from % cents each up. These
are circular, all glass, and will float
in the cream, are easily cleaned and
are much better than guesswOrk.

The Wisconsin tobacco reporter. (Edgerton, Wis.) 1877-1950, 1904-12-09
Dairy MaXimS.

Feed your cows twice day at regu-
lar intervals and have pure water and
salt always accessible.
A dairy cow does not need as much
exercise as a trotting horse.
You do not need a dog to drive up
dairy cattle.
A COW with q good escutcheon and
nothing else should be butchered.
A cow likes a variety of food. Graft
fly her taste as often as you can.
The Wisconsin tobacco reporter. (Edgerton, Wis.) 1877-1950, 1904-12-09
The Cow For the Dairy.

The record of the herd of the Con
necticut experiment station, kept for 9
period of five years, shows that a COW
of distinct dairy type is a better pro
ducer of butter fat than is one of q
beefy nature. Cows of good dairy type
yielded 300 pounds of butter fat pei
year, while those that were feshy
yielded only 20 pounds of butter fat
per year. The former made a net
profit of $2S per head and the latter
about Sc per head, showing the impor
lance of properly selecting the COWS
for the dairy.
The Wisconsin tobacco reporter. (Edgerton, Wis.) 1877-1950, 1904-12-09

Do not be a "stickler' on color OF
size nor decide to let COW remain in
your herd because she has a good
escutcheon and pretty horns, says c
w. Pratt in Farm Visitor. If she
weighs only 600 pounds, is as black
as crow and has neither escutcheor
nor horns, but yields the butter. keer
her. You want the COW that will pro
duce the most butter at the least cost
Do not be influenced by looks, but by
the yield of milk and butter.
