THE DAIRY
Report on Dairying and Pure Foods.

Report on Dairying and Pure FOODS.
Hon. L. Davies, state dairy and pure
food commissioner of Washington,
has made a brief report covering the
work done by his office during the
twelve months previous to May L,
1906. His work is being carried on
under the latest law of the state re-
lating to dairying and pure food in
spection, and he finds this law very
beneficial. adding that with sufficient
appropriation more educational work
among the dairymen could be carried
on. The number of assistants allow
ed him is too small to cover the state
as fully as it should be, but even with
the force at his command he says very
satisfactory work has been done. Dur
ing the period covered by the report
there have been inspections made OF
4S9 diaries in the state, 149 creamer-
les. six cheese factories, 81 milk de-
pots and three milk condenseries.
Many of the above dairies were found,
upon first inspection, to be in very bad
condition, and in their cases several
inspections were made, until condit-
ions were brought up to the proper
standard.
There has been substantial in
crease in the amount of butter manu-
featured in the state during the year
ending May 1, 1906. Commissioner
Davies report says that 152 state
brands have been cancelled, thus re-
ducing the number of butter factories.
Even with this reduction the total
amount of butter produced has been
larger for similar previous periods
The amount of butter in pounds down
to May list is not given, but for the
period from November 1, 1904, to No
vember 1, 1905, there were 1856, 44O
pounds made, as against 7,566,769
pounds for year prior to this period.
The method used in securing statistics
is not entirely satisfactory, as SO
many neglect to make any report and
Mr.. Davies suggests that it be made
the duty of the county assessors to
gather these statistics, or make it COM
pulsory to furnish complete reports to
the dairy commissioner at stated per-
iods under pain of having the state

The Importance of Dairyinq.

Dairying, it is apparent, will do more
for this country in the long run than
any other branch of agriculture. The
month, and there's no such thing as
crop failure. A dairy community is
independent of hard times. People
must and will have butter, and they
will pay more for fresh, pure butter
than they will pay for ordinary butter.
The dairyman gets the benefit of this,
as he can sell his cream to the cream
cry that gets the highest price for
butter. Under the new way of paying
for cream, the dairyman is paid on
the basis of the selling price of the
butter into which his cream is made.
This method has proven a great sue
cess for the dairyman.
Get two or three good COWS and a
hand cream separator and start in
Separate the cream right after milk
ing and cool it quickly. 1t will keep
in fine shape if quickly and properly
cooled. Feed the skim milk while
warm and fresh to the pigs, or feed it
sour to the chickens. Keep the prom
Using heifer calves and build up your
herd. Send the steers and the I'M
profitable COWS to the butcher. Raise
your own forage crops, and feed every
thing you raise. Your farm will in
crease in fertility and value. Invest
every dollar you make in more good
cream-making cows, and you will be
growing rich and independent.

farm as in the creamery but the i'm
possibility of getting lines of dairy
butter of uniform quality is respon-
sible for part of the higher price
obtainable for creamery product on
the wholesale markets. And, no doubt,
the same element may enamble the
centralizers to obtain higher price
(grade for grade) for their product
than is obtained for the average cream
cry product marketed in smaller lots.
While the instructors or inspectors
are doing good work in most Of the
states where there are any, it is evil
dent they cannot get round often
enough to do the effective supervising
that may result in greater uniform
ity. This has been the experience
in Canada, where the more efficient
syndicate instruction now obtains.
But that system cannot be expected

brand forfeited in case of neglect to
comply.
Much educational work is necessary
among the dairymen before we can
hope to see the states milk supply
come up to approved standards. The
milk supply from the dairies has been
found very satisfactory as far as the
butterfat tests are concerned, but
when it comes to temperature, clean
Illness, and other points, many of the
producers fall down. In the matter of
pure mil ksupplied for the cities the
commissioners office is getting into
touch with the city authorities and as
far as possible working in harmony to
elevate the standard of purity.

overdose and the floor and room as
we'll as the standard of the machine
become smeared over in very dis
gushing manner. Keep the separator
and it's surroundings neat. Have a
pride in these things and you will be
surprised at the increased satisfaction
you will derive from your work. Use
only light, thin oil of high grade
and use it judiciously. What would
you think of a man who tried to oil
the delicate mechanism of his watch
with axle grease? The separator is
one of the most delicate machines on
the farm and should have correspond
ing care.

Advantages of the Farm Separator.
wv, E. MaSterS.)

The farm separator is a machine
that has come into general public
use of late years, and is yet not very
well known in some localities but,
owing to it's numerous advantages on
the farm as we'll as in the factories,
it is fast growing in popularity as
a labor saver and money maker for
the farmer.
One great advantage of the cream
separator is that it enables one to
skim the milk as it comes from the
cow, which is the best temperature
for a complete separation. 1t also
enables him to get rid of the skim
milk, for it can be carried out and
fed to the calves or pigs right from
the machine, while the animal heat
is yet present, thereby greatly in
creasing it's value as feed. Then.
it saves the hauling a person would
necessarily have to do if he was COM
PEELED to draw his milk to the cream
cry to be separated, and haul the
skim milk back, or let it go, which
would be a clear loss. Another great
advantage is that it does away with
a great amount of milk-pan washing
thing that can not be avoided in
case OF the old style deep and shall
low pan setting system.
In the deep and shallow pan set
ting system that was practised before
the cream separator came into use,
there was a great deal of care in
keeping even temperatures best for
the raising of cream. Even then, with
the best of care, the closest milk
could be skinned was 20 per cent
There was a loss of 18 per cent but
ter fat, or a loss of per cent over
the over-run, which is figured at Is
per cent, and is the part where the
proprietor makes his highest profit
The average Swimming with the cream
separator is .02 of 1 per cent fat,
and even closer results can be ac-
quired by extra precautiOn.
Another feature of the separator
that is of as much Importance as the
saving of the butter fat, is the part it
plays in extracting bacteria from the
milk, which are always present in
greater or less numbers, and are very
injurious to the quality of the butter,
and also to the health of the calf II
present in large enough numbers.

Cannon Gives Aid.

Washington, April IA. - Speaker
Cannon today assured Representative
Jones, of Washington, and Chairman
Burton, of the river and harbor com.
mittee, that he will permit them io
call up the Columbia river bill on Mon.
day under suspension of the rules
This is the most satisfac 'ory arrange.
ment that could be brought about, for
it means that the bill must be cousid-
cred solely on its own merits, and can
under no Circumstances be confused or
associated with any other river and
harbor or appropriation bill. The
merits of the bill are SO apparent that
it cannot be assailed, unless by mem
bers who have been unable to secure
reports on bills making appropriations
for ri ,'ers or han bors in their own dis
tricts, and it is not believed any such
opposition can now defeat the Colum-
bia river bill.
Everyone who is directly interested d
in the bill seems confident that it will
pass on Monday. 1t will certainly re-
ceive the approval of the president, tor
he long since committed himself to it's
asspage.
