TIMELY DAIRY NOTES.

Bitter milk is generally caused by
bacteria. Keep the stable free from
dust and remove the milk as soon as 10
Is drawn from the COW.
Unwashed butter, if the buttermilk
is well worked out, will keep as well o.
better than butter washed In impure
water. If butter is worked too much 10
spoils the grain, hence the value Of
washing out the buttermilk when good
water can be obtained.
The ideal COW Of the Holland breeders
is Of wedge shape, with shoulders mod
erately thick, the chest full, the barred

held up, the hips broad, the rump long.

Bacterial Content of Cheese.

In report from the Ontario Ex5eri-
ment station on study of the bacterial
content of cheese are presented figures
that indicate the amount Of work these
little organisms do in the predigestinx
OF this food product. According to this
report the number OF bacteria present
are usually largest when the cheese is
but day or two old. The products de-
veloped by the germs. being detrimental
to their own existence, cause them gradn-
ally to deminish in number. The num-
Der of germs found in one sample ONLY
two days old was 1854, 447, 500 peg

This Is Worth Thinking About.

How does little Denmark, where land
IS worth $500 an acre. manage to capture
the English market from the big United
States? The answer is simply this.
They send men over to study the English
markets and find out the kind OF butter
that England wants. These men then go
home and make that kind instead OF DO
ing as the Yankees 6id-try to educats
the Englishman's appetite TO the kind
Americans make. In Denmark dairymen
cooperate and help each other In every
possible manner; they have cooperative
creameries, cooperative eggs sale houses
and cooperative slaughter houses. They
simply go about doing honest hard work
and always produce uniform product.

X-RAYS AND PEARL OYSTERS
New Discovery Used in Seeking Gems
Without Injury to the

At a time when considerable atten-

ing extensive measures to protect the
oyster fisheries there. it is of interest
to record a discovery recently commu-
nicated to the Paris Academy of
Sciences by NJ. Dubois relative to using
Roentgen rays to examine oysters. 1t
has been found that these rays enable
an observer to determine ct once
whether a living oyster contains a
pearl or not without injury 10 the ami

oyster may be replaced in the bed I'M
I'll further growth takes place and the
desired size is reached, says Harper's
Weekly. In the scientific examination
of the pearl oysters of Ceylon it has
been ascertained that the popular belief
that the nuclei of pearls are formed by
minute grains of sand or other parti-
cles holds good in but few instances.
and that in most cases the pearls or
pearly eXcreSCCncos are produced by
the irritation of boring sponges and
burrowirg worms. The best germs re-
suit from the stimulation Of a parasite
worm which becomes incased and dies.
