DAIRY NOTES.
BY SHEPHERD.

No"s WIN small, hard teats, or
those hard to milk, should be
MIXED with wet teats.
Much better butter can he
made when the temperature of
the milk and milkhouse can be
regulated.
One of the impossible things
Is to make better butter good by
any process whatever.
The cows udder should alwavs
be washed or sponged off before
milking, so that no impurities
can enter the milk.
frequent stirring Of the cream
will obviate the dlfficulty so of.
ten experienced in having the
butter full Of white specks.
Sweet cream just remove d from
the milk does not churn as rapid
ly as older cream that has been
ripened.
Milk cannot be exposed to de.
leterious influences, such as odors
or the stable, moldy and impure
milk rooms, without being con-
taminated.
OF the various wavs through
which it is possible for the aver.
age dairyman to enhance his
profit, the most effectual is first
to reduce the cost of producing
his milk.
Churning at too high a tempera-
ture or churning too long will
produce greasy butter in which
the grain is injured, the melting
point lowered and the keeping
qualities injured.
Some cows are not butter cows.
In spite of the best treatment.
the butter will be poor in quality
and pale in color. The sooner all
of this class are gotten rid of the
better.
In profitable dairying, liberal
feeding is required. This means
that cow must have as much
wholesome nutritious food as she
will eat and digest.
Whenever bad odors can be
detected about the dairy, some
thing ls radically wrong and
needs attention.
The poorer the butter is from
the albuminous and Gaseous mat
ters, the finer will be the flavor
and the stronger it will keep.
If the butter is properly wash.
ed in the churn and salted with
brine and then thoroughly drain.
ed, no working is necessary.
When prices are highest is the
time to make the most from any
product, even at slight in the
cost Of production.
AS far as con be done in making
butter to sell to private custom
ers, make it as nearly as possible
as best suits them, not to your
own particular taste.
In undertaking to supply prI-
vate customers, make it a rule to
supply regularly as agreed. This
aids materially in holding Gus.
toners. Put yourself to a little
trouble rather than fail to supplv
on time.-Live Stock Journal.
