Goino East After Dairy Supplies.

A. B. Braddick, manager of the dairy
supply department of the Chas. II. LII
ly Co., of Seattle, Portland and San
Francisco, left this week for an eX-
tended trip in the east in the inter-
est of his house. He will stop at Chi
cago, New York, Philadelphia and
other points, and will make an effort
to bring back with him all the latest
endeavors in the dairy and creamery
supply line that are on the market.
This will mean that the dairy and
creamery patrons of the Chas. ii.
Lilly Co. will soon be able to secure
right at home the latest appliances OF
whatever nature in their line. Mr..
Braddick also will make it point to
stop at Madison Wisconsin, and visit
that grand istitution there, the state
experiment station.
The business of the Chas. H. LILLY
Co. in the dairy and creamery supply
line has made remarkable growth
the past year or so, indicating that
throughout the Pacific northwest dairy
ing is making great strides. Mr.. Brad
dick states that the firm has sold fifty
per cent more Tubular separators
than they contracted for, thus far ex-
ceeding their expectations, and the
dairy supply business has grown to
such an extent that it now becomes
necessary for the manager to make a
trip east each year in order to get into
closer touch with the manufacturers
of goods in their line.

great amount of wall papers sold an

milk care is simple, and can be put on
a page of note paper.
Feed plenty of commonly accepted
feeds. Keep COWS clean, stable white
washed, air free from dust. Use care
in milking, strain through sterilized
cheesecloth, put into clean receptacles,
cool at once to 40 degrees. This rule
will suit milkmen, cheesemen, butter
men or women either Where milk is
manufactured the following day into
butter or cheese if cooled at once to
55 degrees, no trouble will follow. On
the other hand, if bacteria get in
through the usual stable contamina-
ton or foul pals, cans or strainers,
and high temperatures follow, there
will be plenty of animal odor or heat,
and pushing air through it won't save
it,"

To Succeed in Dairy Work.

1t don't pay to keep poor COW in
the herd all winter when a good one
can just as we'll take her place. Meth
er does it pay to carry on winter dairy
ing with lot of shippers unless they
have been good mixers all spring and
summer and you are keeping them out
of respect for what they have been
Remember, if you want the best, you
must get stock that are bred for spe-
cial purpose Now is the time to look
around for a good dairy sire If you
are needing one and you will have him
to use in December and January, the
best time for breeding COWS intended
for profitable mixers. Get, if posi-
BILE, sire out of very good mixer,
as he is more likely to transmit the
qualities of his dam than his sire.
Don't buy bull out of beef strain
and then grumble because his progeny
don't make profitable mixers. This Is
unnatural, unfair to the breed and con-
trary to the purpose of the animal.

Why So Much Poor Butter?

The question is often asked: "Why
is there so much poor butter?" Per-
haps the country .Storekeepers are
more to blame than anyone else be-
cause of their habit of trading mer-
chandise for butter and allowing the
same price whether it's good or poor.
The remark is often made by farmers
that it don't pay to take extra pains
because there is nothing in it. The
local merchant sells the good butter
at a good price and the poor stuff is
sold to the renOvators For many
years the stuff was revamped in the
city renovating works and sold for
The ranch. [volume] (Seattle, Wash.) 1902-1914, 1906-09-15

pure dairy butter. Recent dairy laws
require that renovated butter shall be
SO labeled, and this of course discour-
ages fraudulent labelling, but the poor
butter finds ats way into the markets
and is disposed of. The local merchant
loses money on the poor stuff and
makes up the loss by selling the good
butter at profit. OF course he makes
a profit on all goods given in exchange
for both good and bad. In the round
deal the merchant makes one hand
wash t'other," but how about the wom-
an who furnishes the good butter?

We recommend this concern and believe
it will pay our readers TO call on them
this fall if in need of anything in their
line. They make a speciality of fur
nishing households complete and the
terms at which they offer to do this are
such as to warrant intending purchasers
to call on them.
