DAIRY FARM WISDOM

Conditions which influence the rich
ness Of cream from the separator are
the speed of the bowl, the flow of the
milk in the bowl and to a certain ex
tent the temperature of the milk. High
speed and low feed give rich cream
while a low speed and increasing the
amount of feed will give a thin cream
This accounts largely for the great
variation in the cream Test from the
same machine.-Cor American Agricul
turist.
Skim MIX For the Calf.
Milk direct from the cow run through
separator and balanced with fiaXseed
meal will not only make the calf grow
as we'll as one fed Oh whole milk, but
in addition. the butter fat will be
saved.
Test the Milk.
You can never tell just what your
cows are worth until you have weighed
and tested their milk separately
Butter From Butter Fat.
A pound of butter fat will make
about one and one-seventh pounds of
butter, depending largely ON the per-
centage of moisture it contains.
Value of Cleanliness.
Nothing in dairy products appeals
with such force to the consumer as to
be absolutely certain that the products
they pay for have passed through per-
fectly clean hands.
Washing the Teats.
There has been much said about
washing the udder and teats before be-
ginning milking, and some do so thor
oughly. Others do it just so as to dis
solve whatever dirt may be there and
leave it to drip down into the milk,
while more do not do it at all or even
take the trouble to brush off the sides.
tanks and legs of the COW, usually the
filthiest parts, and in this way more
solid matter gets into the milk than is
in the proper proportion for the butter
fat in it.-American Cultivator
Clean the Separator
Those whose business it is to clean
the separator after using, which should
be done every time dc not do it at all
or do not do it very thoroughly, and it
becomes lodging place for all the mi
cTobes, otherwise the filth in which
breed the most pernicious microbes
until it is much worse than the milk
pals that lecturers used to harp so
much upon.
Factors I'm Pure Milk Production.
Cleanliness, low temperature and
sterilized vessels are the important fac
tors in producing clean. pure milk.
Milk keeps sweet much longer in win
ter than in summer. for it is easily
kept cool, as it is a fact that germs
grow or terminate much less rapidly
in cool and clean milk than in milk of
a higher temperature.

The magic wheels are made out of
cardboard, and should be about an
inch in diameter, with at least eight
spokes. They may be shaped like
either No. 1 or No. 2, and no rims
are necessary, as it is the spokes
that produce the desired effect.
When the two wheels are ready,

and half in length, and run it
through the center of the two wheels,

BEES CLOSED A MINE.
ewarmed in Millions and Men Were
Unable to Work.

There are instances in great number
where mining operations were tenn
porarily suspended by shortage of
funds or by water flooding the proper
ty, but it remained for Mohawk, a
small station along the Southern Pa
cific, to furnish a new cause which is
unique in the history of mining. The
company affected owns the Red Cross
mines in the Mohawk mountains.
Millions of bees, attracted by the
water at these mines and forced from
their hives in the mountains by the
drought, took possession of the water
supply, and their numbers were so
great that it was found impossible to
drive the swarms away. Consequently
the mines have been shut down until
the rainy season sets in, when it is
hoped the bees will return to their
mountain homes-Sacramento Bee.

No one is better able to realize the
injurious action of caffeine-the drug

When the doctor himself has been
relieved by simply leaving off coffee
and using Postum, he can refer with
full conviction to his own case.
A Mo. physician prescribes Postum
for many Of his patients because he
was benefited by it. He says:
II wish to add my testimony in re-
gard to that excellent preparation

nervous heart trouble for over Is

to attend to my business.

stead, my heart has got all right, and

BOB CASES TRIUMPH.
Story Of cripPle's Dream That
Came True.

Baseball was in the air. And no
wonder, for it was the afternoon of
the great game between the Easts and
the Vests, rival teams who for gen
erations Of Hillsdale boys had battled
hard against each other. A low-lying
common a short distance from the
town had always been the field of
action.
Bobby Case, a cripple, was the first
boy on the diamond He walked from
base to base and lovingly touched
them with his foot. He was discour-
aged. Gee, I wish I could play just
once. It's such bully day, too," he
said. He then looked across the field.
Not boy was in sight, and he gave
sigh of relief. How ashamed he
would have been to have let the fel.
lows know he had come early just to
touch the bases. Bobby had never
expressed wish to the boys that he
wanted to play ball, or even dreamed
of doing so.
Presently the noisy whistling and
calling announced the Easts and
Vests and their respective admirers.
The opposing teams were we'll
matched. Enthusiasm reigned SUI
preme. But Bobby sat silent on the
fence. He was called "hon. SUBJ" for
the Easts. There was little argu-
ment, and the game started. The
Vests had scored and the Easts had
failed. Then the Easts held first
place, and then by some mysterious
chance the game became a tie.
IF I could play just once" thought
poor Bobby.
1t was Jim's turn to bat. The boy
freckled face was flushed with ex.
citement; he understood that so much
depended upon him. He grasped the
old worn bat firmly in his dirty hands,
He paused, then, strangely attracted
toward Bobby, he looked at the little
fellow. The longing in the boys face
stirred within Jim's heart a deep un
derstanding that startled him in its
Intensity. He dropped the bat, and
held out his hands toward the boys.
Boys" he said, II can't bat. And
say, let Bob Case bat in my place."
There was a deep silence. Such a
thing had never before happened in
tie annals of Hillsdale's baseball his
tory. The game tie! Did the law al
low such queer thing?
"Why?" stammered the captain OF
the Easts
"Oh, Bobby can bat," replied Jim
wondering at his audacity in the face
of possible defeat. 1--we seen him
bat, heaps of times, practicing in his
dads orchard" And this was true

go ahead" shouted the Vests.
"All right" answered the Easts,
confidently.
Another brief discussion of ways
and means and Bobby was given a
place of honor. Enthusiasm and dis
approval were shown by the audience.
But Bobby was confident. He would
show his comrades his worth. He
assumed the air of a professional.
even though it was his first public
appearance.
Let her go!" he called.
One strike, one ball-two balls.
three balls, two strikes. Bobby was
still alert and confident. The bleach
ers became suddenly interested. One
of the boys called out: Casey at the
Bat" then the others echoed the
words. This encouraged Bobby; it
was like his dream. Then Jim had
said he could bat. The pitcher paused,
measuring his opponent Then Bobby
hit. Such ball-nothing like it in
the annals of the Easts' history. Jim
was on second, third. What were the
Vests doing, and where were their
quick plays? The boys were wild.
Jim had touched the home base. The
Easts had won.
"Casey at the bait" the boys called
over and over again: Even the Vests
were obliged to acknowledge that
Bobby was "blinger.''
Bobby stood, bashful and very hap
py, receiving the homage of his
friends. They no longer considered
him a "girl boy" He had had his
chance and was now a casey at the
