The Hand Separator to Stay.

There has been war between the
men that believe in hand separators
for farm use and the men that believe
that all milk should be hauled to the
creamery. The latter declare that as
good butter cannot be made from
gathered cream as from the cream
taken from fresh milk brought in.
This may be so; but one thing should
not be lost sight of, and that is that
the hand separator has come to stay,
and the argument CT whether it is a
good thing may as well be discon.
tinued. The time will be better spent
if put upon the questions that have
come with it. Every situation has its
own problems and every new inven.
ton brings lot of new problems. 1t
was only natural that the hand sep.
arator should have its new phases and
it's new questions. Some of these are
hard to settle. The hardest is the
one relating to the freshness of the
cream when delivered to the butter.
maker. This problem will be settled
90 have all other questions before it

Cream In the Pantry.

1t is common in our farm houses to
set the cream in the pantry or in the
cellarway, where all kinds of food
are also kept 1t is safe to say that
cream cannot be set in such places
and give good butter. Some people
may like butter that tastes Of dough
nuts, pies, cookies, limburger cheese,
onions, celery, cloves, cinnamon,
oranges, apples and the like, but most
people like to have the aroma that
belongs to butter rather than to the
pantry. Probably the one greatest OBJ
stacle to getting good flavor in farm
made butter is this one of the setting
of milk to rise in the pantry. 1t is
such a firmly settled custom that it
will be with difficulty broken up, in
spite of the fact that much such but
ter has to be sold to the poorest mar
ket and at not above ten cents per
pound. The nose Of the housewife Is
so accustomed to the smells OF the
pantry that she never thinks of them
when she is putting her milk away to
undergo the process of cream raising
Cream in the pantry should be abol-
ished, and in it's place should come
cream in the cream room, place set
aside for this operation and sealed
against the entrance of all doors that

Wheat Bran For MIX Maxine.

Wnedt Brdn for MIX Making.
Men frequently misjudge the value
of feeds by their density. Thus there
is strong opinion among farmers
that cornmeal is better for milk max
ing than bran. 1t is heavy and has a
beautiful color and the COW owner as
sociates it with rich cream. But the
fact is, bran is, in the main, more val
liable for milk making than is corn
meal in spite Of the attractive ap-
pearance Of cornmeal. The stomach
of the cow is better suited to take
care of bran than of cornmeal, be-
cause it is more bulky. The COW was
made for the purpose Of using up just
such waste products as bran would
be without farm animals to consume
it. And bran cannot be judged by it's
lightness. The question of using or
not using bran is one that must be
decided on it's price, compared with
the prices of other like feeds. At the
same price as corn it is far more
profitable to be used for the making
of milk. It's protein content is high,
but not so high that the digestive ap-
paratus of the animals will be injured
by it. American farmers should not
permit pound of bran to go across
the waters, but should buy and feed
every pound of it, thus not only max
ing the profit that may be made out Of
it, but saving the fertility for their
land; for the fertilizing qualities of
bran are considerable.
