CREAM RAISING.
Advantages of the Shallow Pan
Method For Small Diaries.


Shallow pans are the order of the
day, as a rule, in the small dairies
where there are less than six cows
kept for butter and cream, says p. Nc
Connell in the Dairy The milk must
be set warm after straining through
two thicknesseS of muslin to extract
from one to four gallons. The milk
coolS naturally, and the cream rises
by gravitation into a thick layer, much
depending on the temperature Of the
dairy. Many people skim twice in the
twenty-four hours, but it is best in
cold weather to let the milk stand and
skim only once. The greater part of the
cream rises in the first twelve hours,
and if the milk is disturbed the rest
Of the fiat may never rise at all.
Cream obtained in the ''open air"
method is Of the finest flavor, requires
a shorter time to ripen and makes
better favored butter than machine
skinned material. Flat pans, of
course, require a lot of room, but not
so much for limited number of cows,
while jacketed pans of the Jersey
type are the best for use in this way.
If the milk is set warm, even heated
up to 120 degrees, and then a trickle
of cold water passed through the
jacket, the whole Of the cream will be
quickly thrown up and Of the finest
quality.
1t seems that, starting with warm
milk and in falling temperature, the
fat, which does not cool so quickly as
the serum, rises all the more quickly
For small dairy pans Of this de-
scription are certainly better than a
separator. In a former note the writer
stated his belief that a separator was
suitable for dairy Of over ten cows,
but that for less than six the pan
system was much more handy and
convenient

New Method of Making Butter.

The department of agriculture notes
d new method of making butter in
Great Britain, where instead of using
water for washing butter separator
skim milk is used which has been twice
pasteurized Sailed and unsalted but
ter prepared in this manner contained,
respectively, II and Is per cent of wa
ter, the former containing only one
fifth as many bacteria. Further ex-
periments are being conducted at the
British dairy institute, and it is con-
sidered that the results are sufficiently
interesting to warrant calling the at
tention of buttermakers who have an
impure water supply to this simple
method of overcoming that difficulty
arising from washing butter with wa
ter filled with bacteria.

Rossini was one Of the most indolent

FEEDING SUGGESTIONS

Some farmers condemn gluten meal,
cottonseed meal and dried brewers
grains outright while others have
fed them for long intervals with great
success, says II. J. Wheeler of the
Rhode Island experiment station. The
latter fact indicates that probably those
who have had bad results fed care
lessly, that the particular lot of grain
was bad, or else the COWS to which the
material was fed were in some respects
abnormal. In some instances it has
been reported that gluten meal, while
giving good results combined with GER
tain foods, does not work we'll with
some COWS if fed together with corn
meal.
Feeding CottOnseed Meal.
Some good feeders employ three
pounds or more Of cottonseed meal
daily, though it is generally held that
two pounds should be the maximum
daily allowance per COW. Gluten meal
may usually be fed more freely than
cOttOnseed meal.
Feeding Cows.
The food supplied to the dairy cow is
designed to serve two purposes, says
American Cultivator. The first, and
the one that always does and always
must take precedence, is the keeping
up Of the machinery Of life. The ami
NAL heat must be maintained, and the
constant wear and waste of the bones
and tissues of the body must be re-
placed. All this must be done whether
any milk is produced Or not. If suit
able material then remains, it will be
utilized for the second purpose of the
food, which is the production of milk.
The man who gives his cows but little
food can obtain but little milk from
them, simply because they have very
little material from which to make it.
This rule applies just as fully to the
best cow in the country as it does to
the poorest one.
When to Feed Literally.
The time to feed dairy cows more lib
orally is before they show the need OF
it.
Good Feed, Good Returns.
It never pays to stint the cows in
the matter of feed or to reply too much
on cheap rations The more and bet
ter the feed the greater the returns
will be. The cows should be fed, salt
ed and watered at regular intervals,
and thus made to form regular habits.

the subject. All Of the popes from
Adrian VI. to Innocent XII. and ali

de Paul and the Cardinals Bellarmine
and Richelieu all wore full boards.

Measuring the Ration.

It is not necessary that farmers
should weigh the daily ration for each
COW, even in scientific feeding The
grain rations can be weighed at the
outset, the quantities of each meas
ured, and the ration subsequently fed
by measure By making a mixture of
the grain ration, in quantity, and then
measuring out the total amount de
handed per feed, there will be little
danger of accident owing to careless
ness on the part of the hired help.

DECISION REVERSED
Air Brake Company Scores a
Point in Suit With Road

In a decision in the appeal of the
Westinghouse Air Brake company
against the Kansas City Southern
railway company. in the federal court
of appeals, it was decided that a rem
edy at law is no bar to an action in
equity, the decision of the United
States circuit court for the western
district of Missouri being reversed.
The case is the outcome of the fore
closure of the Kansas City, Pittsburg
& Gulf railroad company, in which the
air brake company appeared as inter-
vening petitioner. On April 1, 1893,
the Gulf road was mortgaged to the
State Trust company of Missouri to
secure a $23,000,00O bond issue. On
April 6, 1899, a bill was exhibited in
the circuit court and a receiver APP
pointed for the road. In February,
1900, the Kansas City road purchased
the Gulf property in the foreclosure.
Previous to this the Gulf road had
purchased from the Westinghouse
company air brakes and signal ap-
paratus valued at $32,316.21, on which
at the time of foreclosure there re-
manned due S23,5S7.26. OF this amount
$12,316.21 was due on a bill for ma
terial purchased after the mortgage
was negotiated and $11,271.05 for ma
The Westinghouse company inter-
vened in the foreclosure in June, 1899,
alleging both statutory and a prefer
entail equitable lien on the mortgaged
property and asked that the claim be
paid from the proceeds of the sale. The
Kansas City Southern road denied this,
and the case was heard before the
master in chancery, who held that the
Westinghouse company had both liens
on the property to the extent of SILL
27lO5, the amount of material con-
tracted for by the Gulf road prior to
the mortgage. The Kansas City South
ern road objected on the grounds of
multifariousness, and the Westing-
house company chose the equitable lien
as ground to proceed upon. The Kan
sas City Southern then answered and
stated for the first time that the
Westinghouse company had adequate
remedy at law on it's mechanics lien
and that by filing it's statement for
that lien it had waived it's claim for
a preferential equity lien. The circuit
court sustained the claim and dismiss
ed the intervening petition of the
Westinghouse company
The circuit court of appeals finds
the lower court in error. in that
grounds for an action I'm a state court
are no bar to an action in equity and
remands the case back to the lower
court, with instructions to enter
judgment for $11.271.05 in favor of the
appellant, with interest and cost and

the property in question If the judg-
ment is not satisfied.

MANY ATTEND CLUBS
Women Are Showing Interest
In Farmers Institutes

The women's department of the
farmers Institutes over the state, es-
tablished last year, is meeting with
great success, according to Supt. Gregg
There were sixteen clubs established
and twelve of them are now in good
condition. They are we'll attended and
the people manifest keen desire to
have them continued.
The office here sends out well known
lecturers to speak along different lines,
dealing with household economy. The
clubs make a request for speakers
along certain lines which they are in
terested in. AT present Mrs. Bertha
Dow Laws of Appleton is visiting the
clubs to speak particularly on the sub
ject of nursing, and the preparation of
foods for the sick room.
Mrs. Margaret Blair, an authority on
fabrics at the farm school, will shortly
start on tour TO visit the clubs.
Supt. Gregg has received reports
which indicate very early season for
farming over the state. In the south
east the seeding both of wheat and
oats is practically completed and the
soil is in splendid condition. Prepara-
tons for corn planting are-now going
on, with the promise that planting will
be early. In the Red River valley the
seeding is progressing rapidly. The
freezing has caused some delay, but the
past week has been more favorable
There has been some delay from the
wet weather, but the soil is in better
condition now.

CUT WHEAT AREA
Valley Farmers Have Ceased to
Be One Crop Men

Diversified farming in the Red River
valley is now recognized fact, says
Prof. I. A. Hoberstad of the expert
ment station at Crookston. What was
once devoted exclusively to the raising
OF wheat is now given over to a divi-
sion of wheat raising, dairying, vege-
tables and forage crops.
In the last ten years We have been
endeavoring to develop a system of
farming for the Red River valley" said
Prof. Hoberstad. I'VE have found that
the proper method of rotation is:
Ffrst-Wheat, oats, barley and such
grains.
Second-Grass crops. such as tim
othy and similar grasses
Ihlrd-Corn, sugar cane and forage
crops in general.
This is the order in which the crops
rotate to the best advantage. What
one crop takes out of the soil the next
one returns, and, by a proper system
the soil can be kept good for any length
of time
The dairying interests have made a
great showing in the valley" said Prof
Hoberstad. When the station was es-
tablished ten years ago, there was not
creamery in the country. Now there
are fifty-one, and number of cheese
factories.
This has brought much live stock
into the country. 1t is easy to see that
without live stock it would be impossible
to have diversified farming which is
necessary to retain the present rich
condition of the SOIL"

KILLED BY ENGINE
frightened Man Jumps In
Front of Train

Run down by Omaha train No.
81. i'm the East st. Paul yards, yester-
day afternoon, David Green, a carpen-
ter, So years old, 677 Sims street, was
terribly mangled by the wheels of the
engine and was dead when picked up.
The accident occurred a few minutes
after o'clock as the Omaha passen-
ger train No. 81 from Duluth was pull
Ing into the yards. Green was walking
along the track ahead of the train
which was concealed from view by a
bend in the track. When the engine
rounded the turn he was only a few
rods ahead.
Startled by the screech of the whis-
tie Green turned around to see the
engine close upon him. For a second
he stood motionless and then jumped
from the track. landing on the rails of
another track running parallel to the
hrst one. Had Green remained on the
second track he would have been I'M
injured, but bewildered by the sudden
shock. he stepped across the rails d.
rectly in front of the oncoming engine.
The engineer brought his train to a
stop within few rods and the train
crew hurried back along the track.
Green's mangled body was found lying
just outside the rails. He had been in
stantly killed. The body was placed in
the baggage car and brought to ST
Paul. Deputy Coroner Whitcomb was
called and ordered the body taken to
the county morgue, where an examina-
ton showed that both arms and legs
had been broken. Death resulted from
a blow between the eyes that fractured
the base of the brain.
Green had lived in the city for many
years and was well known on Dayton's
bluff, where he built many houses. He
was married and had two grown sons.
The funeral arrangements have not
yet been decided on.

BOUNDARY WATERS TO BE
UNDER FEDERAL CONTROL
Fullerton Hopes to Bring About Game
Law Reform

1--WE hope to be able in time to place
common fishing waters under federal
control. and thus avoid much friction, -
said S. F. Fullerton, agent for the state
game and fish commission, yesterday
This is something much to be de-
sired, and 1 think we are now on the
road TO success"
Mr.. Fullerton attended the meeting
of state wardens in Chicago, where the
matter was taken under consideration
The question of fishing in boundary
waters has always given the wardens
much trouble. The Jurisdiction is what
the states have never been able to
agree on fully.
I'VE have boundary waters that have
caused us much trouble with Wiscon-
SIM" said the commissioner. .All states
have the same trouble. With the ques-
tion in the hands of federal officials,
there would be no question raised as
to jurisdiction
The Chicago conference prepared
memorial to congress, asking that the
federal government take charge of
boundary waters. All the wardens
were in favor of the idea. Canada has
such an arrangement and it has proved
very satisfactory
