Cream ripening is one of the most
important features Of buttermaking,
writes Mrs. E. E. lockwood in Ma
tionaL Stockman. Good butter cannot
be made from poor cream, and great
deal of cream is spoiled in the interim
between skimming and churning. Cold
weather ripening and hot weather
ripening are two entirely different
propositions. In winter, when bacterial
growth is slow, cream must be warm

isms to increase sufficiently to ripen it.
Vixen the cream turns bitter, yet does.
not sour, the farmers wife thinks it
very strange, yet the cause is merely
the cold weather or the cold atmos-
phere of the milk room.
The cream should be, brought into a
warm room and kept at a temperature
Of go to. 20 degrees for twenty four
hours before clurning. when it will be
found at about the right stage of ripen-
ing for best and most complete separa-
ton. Cream held too long before churn-
ing becomes off favored and bitter for
the same reason. 1t is a mistake to
hold it more than three or four days
No matter if the churning is small,
keep the regular intervals and do the
chrning twice week. The butter
will be OF finer quality than if it is
held longer.
In very cold weather it is sometimes
well to use starter to induce proper
ripening. A quart of buttermilk saved
each time usually contains sufficient
Tactic acid to sour the batch Of sweet
cream nicely, or a glass can may be
filled with new milk and allowed to
stand in a warm place until sour, this
to be used in the same manner. The
can must be sterilized with boiling wa
ter before filling.

Christians furnishing points of living
contact between Christ and the I'M
saved, giving divine power a good
chance to flow through them into
other lives. Can any community fail
to be shocked out of religious in
difference into spiritual unrest and
conviction of sin, when scores of
Christians have put themselves into
vital connection with Christ, and
through personal work have filled
the community with live wires?"
OPEN AIR BUSINESS.
Whatever else is done or not done,
there must be this private work for
Christ. If special meetings inspire
such work, good results are certain
to follow. Sometimes it takes four
weeks of pulpit bombarding to scat
ter a score Of Christians out through
the field for personal work. Then
people are converted. A four days
meeting at the end of four weeks of
equally earnest personal work might
bring equal results. Can not our
people be inspired to do this work?
Will they not take this matter up at
once, each considering we'll who the
people are to whom he has a personal
mission. Surely no one is too busy
for this work whose richest oppor-
tunities arise in the processes of
business and social life. And if our
people will "get busy with the
Masters work in these private and
confidential ways which are INSOFAR
able from the busiest life, the church
will be conscious almost Immediately
of quickening spiritual pulse and
augmenting life. All social worship
and public services will glow with
new fervor, attracting larger num-
bers and discovering in the unsaved
unusual interest in spiritual things.
The ordinary means of grace will
become electric with divine power,
and the church altar will be visited
by seekers after God" Then the
spiritual energies which, unnoticed
by the world, have been throbbing

are made by means of pick and
shovel, until sapping and mining can
be added to open bombardment of
the enemy.
1t may be that vast deal of this
underground work ought to be done
before a general and open assault
on the enemy, in a series of special
meetings, is made. There are wrongs
to be confessed and righted and
reconciliations to be effected. There
are great or petty faults to be
abandoned and neglected duties to
be taken up. There are backslid-
ings to be healed, and divine fires to
be kindled on the affairs of cold
hearts. There are Bibles to be
opened, habits of prayer to be re-
newed, family affairs to be reared.
These all have reference to the
preparation Of multitude of work
ers for their private and individual
tasks. The real business, so far as
reaching outsiders is concerned, be-
gins when what we call personal
work. begins Imagine a hundred
workers in some church getting real
earnest and busy with personal
work parents, after much thought
and prayer, talking about the Chris
tian life to their sons and daughters;
SchoOl-mates arguing and pleading
with unconverted friends, teachers
getting confidential with their pupils
on the subject of religion, socially
prominent ladies urging the claims
of Christ upon their friends, prom.
inent citizens interrupting business
conversation to urge the duties OF
the Christian life. Imagine few
score Christians in a community
quietly, earnestly, persistently, priv
ately pressing the claims of Christ
along the lines of domestic, business
and social relationships, arousine
attention, warming hearts, awaken
ing consciences. Imagine few score

the fate of Rome hung all day long
In the doubtful balance of war, those
who toiled agonizingly to save the
city from barbarians thought they
saw their gods Castor and Pollux
flaming in the forefront of the
battle. Perhaps the common soldier
behaved so va4iantly that he was
mistaken for god. Shall we who
draw sword in ImmanueI's war
doubt that the divine cohorts are
marshalled for cur assistance O
that our eyes might be opened, like
those of the young man who saw the
hills of Dothan full of horses and
charIots of fire around Gods prophet!
ALL IN THE FIGHT TOGETHER.
Now when the church is becoming
truly militant and the shout of
victory is in the air shall we not all
grid our loins and do valiant fight
ing. We can afford to be earnest
because the battle so far, at least,
as we are concerned, will not be
long. 1t is a privilege to be alive
and at work in this wonderful time.
My Brother Pastors! Shall we not
give all the strength we have
to Him who halted at no sacri-
fee for us? Shall we nat try to
make this memorable year in our
ministry? Though other years will
bring other opportunities, these that
face us now are passing never to
return. Other doors may open, but
these will soon be closed forever.

laity! Are you also ready to do
your part? At the roll-call of Chris
tan workers, do you answer, Here

year of Christian service IN your
lives, and are you ready to do their

ready, under the leadership of your
pastors, to move Immediately upon
the enemies works? If not, how
much time must yet be given to
pleading, to exhortation, to drill, to
soldier play, to mimic fighting and

THE INVISIBLE ALLIES.
When we realize that our utmost
endeavor is unequal to the task con-
fronting US, let us remember Him
whose power supplements our toll
and makes it fruitful. For this
reason the results are frequently out
of all proportion to what we have
done. This is because of that Proyi-
dence who establishes unrealized
connections in, the personal world,
and operates upon the souls of men
by agencies and influences to us I'M
known. To us, then, as to the old
Hebrew, comes the divine assurance:
MOT by power, not by might, but
by my Spirit" The tides of that
Spirit, vast and viewless as the wind
sweep around our world, surging
and eddying through our human
life, the real source of all true inspir-
alton, the real efficacy of all true
effort. The Majestic One whom
John saw in his vision walking among
the golden candle-sticks is still in
the midst of his people, not to blast
a fainting church with anger, but to
hearten and help his friends. AS
surely as virtue went out from him
to the woman who touched his
garment in the throng, so surely
may we get new life and power as
by faith we touch him in this holy
war. The powers for us are more
than those against US. Once, when
