including aerators, steriliZers, separa-
tors. churns, butter workers. etc. Any
farmer who wishes can bring milk to
this dairy. He can bring as much or
as little as he wants to- He is paid ac-
cording to the butter fat that the milk
contains. The average the past season
has been about 2la cents per quart
This is for butter fat and the farmer
takes the skim milk home with him.
The milk from each of the patrons
herds is separated Individually, and he
carries home his own skim milk. Any
one who does not wish to use the skim
milk can sell it to Mr.. Daniels at half
cent per quart. Considerable cream
is sold i'm the retail trade. All of the
product that is not sold as milk or
cream is made into butter and the same
marketed at very remunerative figures.
Septic Tank For Creamery.
To dispose of drainage at Il skim
ming station. Professor Harrington q l.
vises, in Hoard's Dairyman the build
ing of tank about 10 feet long, feet
deep and feet wide, at some con
venient place removed from the cream
cry at least 800 feet ana on line Of
drainage from the factory This tank
may be made o. plank or brick ce-
mented over Allow the drainage from
the creamery to run In at one end and
out through an overflow pipe near the
top of the tank at the other end Place
a partition about midway Of the tank
nearly half the distance from the top
down. This will prevent the drainage
from passing directly through the tank,
and require 1t to stand some time to
ferment before leaving the tank
The idea of a septic tank is, to hold
drainage at least twenty-four hours. so
that decomposing processes will go on
and liquefy the solid matter in the sew
age and partially purify it. This tank
may be covered entirely over, except
ing a manhole. through which the tank
may be cleaned out once or twice a
! year; considerable sediment will ac-
! emulate in this tank. The drainage
! from the tank will probably be purified
so that 1t can run out over the field

Cool WINTER For Cows.

Cows appreciate cool water in sum-
mer. They will frequently take a
drink where the water enters the
trough, thus getting it fresh and cool.
AS milk is composed of 81 per cent
water, it is desirable that water should
be given in such form and at such
times that the cows may have all they
need and have it in the best possible
condition for obtaining a good milk

Cleaning the Separator.

The separator should be washed after
every time that ii is used. and the
sooner 1t is washed the easier will be
the operation. In cleaning the machine
the frame should not be neglected.
Sometimes an operator thinks 1t il
useless to spend time to keep it clean,
as 1t does not come in direct contact
with the milk. In most cases where q

when to Salt the Butter.

In order to retain the moisture in
butter and TO incorporate it properly
it is necessary that the butter be not
in the hard round granular shape
when the salt is added. The butter
granules must not be churned together
to such an extent as to cause butter
Jumps TO appear massive throughout
before the salt is added, but the small,
somewhat irregular butter granules
should be united into larger Jumps, so
that when the mass of butter is opened
with a ladle the small granules can
still be distinguished as individuals.
At this stage Ii is in proper condition
for sailing. BY working the butter i'm

ed the salt will be dissolved quickly
and retained by the butter.-G. L. Nc

SOFT cHEEsEs.
Interesting 10 American Dnirymen.
Bring Good and Quick Profits.

The home OF the soft cheeses is con-
tinental Europe. No part of Europe is
without its types of soft cheese. The
American market In the past has been
almost monopolized by the hard
cheeses. principally of the type of the
English cheddar. Americans have
known little of the great variety Of
soft cheeses common in European mar
kets, and there has consequently been
very little call for them. Within the
last generation a moderate demand for
soft cheeses has been developed. This
demand may be attributed partly to
the desire of our people of European
birth for the types of cheese familiar
TO them at home. 1t Is also partly due
to the taste acquired by Americans
who have travelled abroad, as we'll as
to a growing appetite for them among
others who have tried the new deli

rind use a brush and warm water The
temperature best adapted for curing Is
from % to Go degrees. and the air
should be moist as possible The cheese
will be ready for use in from two to
four months. The lighter the cheese is
sailed the sooner will it be ready for
use, and the more the curd Is cooked
the slower it will be in ripening and
the longer it will keep, says Professor

in one point-namely, the whey is new
er fully drained from them. The curdled
milk is commonly Labeled into forms
and allowed TO drain naturally. soft
cheeses are not subjected TO pressure
or heat ana therefore contain Il larger
per cent Of water at the start than the
hard cheeses. AS Il consequence they
ripen rapidly and develop high fiavors.
They are ready for the table in ii few
weeks instead Of months. Because Of
the rapidity Of the chemical changes
going on in them these cheeses are
more perishable than the true hard
cheeses. Their marketable period is
very short. If placed upon the table ut
just the right period they are very ap-
petiZing If insufIiciently ripened they
do not have the proper flavor or tex
ture. and if even slightly overripened
they rapidly show tendency to decay

Drown hay" is fed from these stacks
instead of dry hay. We have had
success with heavy growing sorghum
In this case, says Farm and Ranch, by
letting it wilt after cutting and then
laying straight in long piles and cover
ing these with earth SO that rain and
air were excluded from the top. The
sides will dry out and mold for q
short distance inside the pile, but there
is no material loss. There are also
more systematic methods of putting up
outdoor silos. .,. g.
Frame For Open Air siIo.
An open framework of l by stun
is built in sections to inclose Temporal
rily the stack of silage and give shape

lengths of one to two inches and ele-
waited into these skeleton walls when
it is tramped down continually. Air
is virtually excluded during the heat
ing process following this storage 60
of green stuff in the open air. 1t saves
perfectly provided tarpaulln or other
rain proof cover is provided when rain
is feared. Near Beeville, in south Tex
as, where we have seen the crops Of
both corn and sorghum thus stored, no
covering was used. In ten days after
cutting and fitting the skeleton walls
some twenty-five feet in height were
removed and used again a short dis
lance away for forming another stack
Of silage. The quality OF the silage is
most excellent.
