Condensino of Mix Increasing.

The condensing factories OF the
United States and even those Of Swift
Zerland have come to be operated
largely on the trust plan, and their
controllers have been able to regulate
the price of condensed milk to a large
extent. But it seems that this power
is waning due to the increase in the
number of Independent companies. 1t
is reported that the manufacturers of
condenSing factory machinery have
been making large sales this year.
There is good reason for the establish
ment of more condenseries. Some of
the Independent concerns in Illinois
have made enormous profits during
the last few years. One of the stock
holders of an independent company
told the writer that his company had
been making so per cent a year for
some years. If this is so with the in
dependent concerns, what must be the
cases with the concerns that are being
operated on a trust basis. There was
a time a few years ago when the prod
uct of the Swiss Condensing factories
competed in the American market
with the product of the American fac
tories, and the product of the Ameri-
can factories competed in Switzerland
with the product Of the Swiss fac
tories. But an agreement was entered
into by which each withdrew from for
eign territory and left the other in
possession. We believe it is for the
interest of the farming communities
to have as many condenseries in oper-
alton as possible, and every effort to
establish them should be encouraged

ter where the whole milk is pasteIr-
lied with li,e steam: by very careful
operator this expense may be reduced
to one-ffteeltn or even one-twentieth
Of a cent per pound. This expense can
furthermore be reduced by using en-
haust steam. In many of the cream
cries they will be able to do all OF
their rasteuriZing with exhaust steam
and in that case the only expense will
be the cost OF the pasteurizer and
cooler. This expense is very small
and a progressive creamery man can
not afford to consider that expense if
it will assist him in improving his
product. When we have been able to
bring our butter up to high standard
it will soon be noticed by the con-
sumers and they will readily pay a
premium on quality.
In regard to the other objections
that are made against pasteurization,
they are all suppositions without be-
ing based upon reliable experiments.
We can do just as exhaustive churn-
ing from pasteurized as from raw
cream.
The cream. howsver, must be mo:e
carefully cooled before churning. 1t
is surely no objection that pasteuri.a'
tion will demand capable operators. A
few c-eameries could well afford to
introduce pasteurization for that rea
son. When pasteuriZation Of milk or
cream is introduced pasteurization OF
sterilization of water used for the but
ter should not be omitted. At the
Iowa experiment station they have
eliminated several germs from wa>al
| that cause the butter to deteriorate in
| quality in very short time. This
makes it evident that the pasteur&a
| tion or sterilization of water is just
| as important as the pasteuriZation o.
| the cream.

The Birds and Fruit.

The birds are frequently a grea'
nuisance to the man that grows a lit.
tie fruit. With the man that grow
great deal of fruit there is nothing
to complain of The towns and cite
in some of our states have encoura ged d
the birds till it is impossible for tn"
man who has two or three raspberry
currant, or blackberry bushes to get
any fruit at all. The writer had a
small plantation OF raspbcrries, bU'
finally dug it out, as the birds eNeTg
year took all the fruit. He has other
small fruit in larger quantities, an
keeps this because he has enough so
that the birds can take some am
there will still be good margin lei
for the cultivator. We have heara
men rage against the birds. One mar
says that if there is any one bird that
should be shot it is the robin. and ne
practices shooting robins on his farm
because they attack his fruit. Nov.
we believe in the birds. We cann0-
expect to have something for nothiTg
and the benefits the birds bring haye
to be paid for by salary of fruit. tt.
way for man to escape their ravage7
largely is to grow enough of one kind
OF fruit to have enough left for him
self after having lost some by the ray
ages of the birds. Taking all in all.
the fruit grower has the best of it,
He is mistaken in thinking that he j.
the loser. He sees the fruit the biriz
have taken, but he is not able to fini
out the number of the predatory in
sects that have been consumed by the
birds. If man has a small lot OF
fruit, the Only way 10 save it will be
to cover it: and in that case the WORK
will not be laborious. If his planta-
ton is large he will never discover
the loss.

is scarcely visible TO the unaided eye.

Usinq Wooden Pals for Milk.

Under circumstances as they exist
on many farms it is better not to use
wooden vessels OF any kind for the
holding of milk The use of the wood
en- pail is to be objected to for the
reason that it is difficult to keep clean
The pores in the wood readily take in
portions of the milk and only severe
treatment in the way Of scalding each
time can keep them out. This is H.
lustrated in the care Of churns, both
great and small. If they are care
fully washed and dried they remain
sweet for years. The wooden milk
pail will remain sweet if it is con-
stantly washed and saturated with
boiling water, but on some farms this
is not done. Therefore it is safer to
depend on some kind of vessel that
has no pores, and that is easily
washed.

HORTICULTURE;
SIN all Fruits.


The growing of small fruits should
be more extensively practiced by our
farmers than is done at the present
time. We see on great many OF our
large farms no attention whatever 10
the culture OF small fruits. On the
smaller farms the raising of this KIND
of fruit is more extensively practlced
than on the large farms. because,
probably, the small farmer has to
make more from his land than does
the large farmer making comparisons
acre by acre. The growing of small
fruits is more easily practiced than IS
the growing of tree fruits, and it IS
easier to get paying results from them.
In the first place. the small fruits
begin to produce in at most two years
from the time of setting out. The cur
rant and the blackberry begin to be
profitable at two and three years alter
| setting, and the greatest crops OF
| Strawberries generally come in the
second year from setting. If the set
ting is done in the spring. Raspber-
ries become profitable the second
year.
The raising of small fruits is more
easily done than of tree fruits, be-
cause of the ease with which the
small fruits may be protected from
insects and from fungus attacks. The
currant worms attack the curranCs.
The owner of the plantation buys a
few ounces of white hellebore, mikes
it at the rate of one ounce of the pow

sprinliling pot that costs 25 cents,
and gives single application. The
worms disappear. The owner of the
plantation has used but few minutes
of time. The spraying Is thus mat
ter of little moment. No expensive
spraying apparatus has to be secured,
and there is no great question Of skill
in rhe application.
The same treatment is effective for
the same kind of worms on gooseber
ries. The great advantage in the treat
ment of worms on small fruit is that
none of the bushes reach the height
of Il man, except possibly the black
berry, and it is thus easy and cheap tc
use the insecticides and fungicides
that are necessary to do the work
The strawberry needs little attention
of this kind. In fact, most of the peO

Strsjninu the Milk,

To many a farmers wife it would be
superfuous to advise her to strain the
milk. She would no sooner think Of
Teglectng that part of the work than
she would of leaving the COW I'M
rlilked 1t will be surprise to such
to learn that in the case of people
supplying milk to creameries and
cheese factories it has become quite
G common practice not to strain the
milk. After milking the COWS at night
the milk is dumped into the cans and
loft till the next morning. In the
morning the COWS are again milfed
and the milk unstrained is hauled off
to the creamery or the factory. Re
Ceivers of milk at such places have
told the writer of a number Of such
cases. Things have been found in
such milk that could never have
passed through d strainer. Not long
ago we heard of one creamery, the
proprietor of which made a rule that
his patrons should not strain their
milk. He SAID he could tell better how
they were Keeping their COWS if the
milk came 10 him just as it was
drawn. This may be all right for the
creamery manager that is a Spartan
and is ready to administer the heroic
treatment to any patron that does not
come up to the standard in the keep
ing clean OF his cows, but for most
mortals it will not do. We believe
that ordinarily the milk can't be
strained too quickly after milking nor

Alfalfa for Soiljnu PURPOSES.

Alfalfa is one of the best crops for
almost any feeding purpose and is
especially valuable for feeding COWS
that are kept up and given feed cut
green. In the first place it is ab.'ut
as rich in protein as is bran wien
the dry matter is. compared, but OF
course in its green state the protein
content will be decreased in proper
ton as the water content of the green
plant is increased Another important
thing in favor of alfalfa is that it
can be cut repeatedly throughout the
summer. This is not the case with
some of the other soiling crops. We
believe that every dairyman that can
should raise alfalfa and feed it green
if he can. We say eff he can" for the
reason that already some of our city
milk buying companies and bottl'ng
companies are objecting to the feeding
of alfalfa as soilirg crop. We have
not learned that any have objected to
it as a hay crop, though this may
come later. The writer mentioned to
an officer Of company engaged in
supplying bottled milk to Chicago that
alfalfa was likely to prove most
valuable plant for feeding green to
cows during the drouth of summer.
The officer replied that his company
would object to the farmers feeding 1t,
as they even objected to the COWS
being pastured on red clover for mere
than a short period at one time. The
belief of the writer is that some OF
these companies are becoming too ex
acting in their demands. There is
constant tendency among them to OBJ
ject to the feeding Of any but the high
est priced feeds. such as middlings
and corn meal, out of which the farm
er cannot make profitable milk. 1t is
doubtful if alfalfa taints the milk at
all and the farmer should not surren
der his right to feed it without most
thorough investigation as to its real
effect on the flavor of the milk.
