churnlna Temperature.

Temperature at which butter should
be churned is Of very great import
ance in the making of good butter.
The cream should be properly ripened
and the temperature should be such
that the whole milk will be uniform.
The temperature of the cream cannot
be raised suddenly. A person cannot
take milk at 40 degrees out of the eel.
lar, heat it up to IS degrees and com.
mence churning Immediately, nor
should the temperature be raised by
pouring in hot water. In both cases
the temperature will be very uneven,
a part Of the milk will be warm and a
part If the milk will be cold, and If
the hot water be poured in it will
coagulate a part of the casein-that
with which it comes into immediate
contact. Previous to churning the
cream should be in warm room for
several hours, and it should have
reached a desirable temperature at
least two hours before being put into
the churn. On the farm this Is easily
done by placing the cream in the
kitchen or some other warm place,
at least in the winter season. In
creamery it will be necessary to keep
the temperature of the whole building
at or above the temperature at which
1t is desired to do the churning. This
problem Of churning temperature is
very difficult one, on account of the
great variability Of our season; in
the summer the temperature will nat.
urally be too high and in the winter
it will naturally be too low. While
In the creamery the desirable temper
ature is so to 55 degrees, in the farm
home it will be from 60 to IS degrees.
The reason for this is that in the home
the churning is done by hand and in
the factory it is done by machinery
driven by steam, The lower the tenn
perature the harder the churning.

Why Soils Fail.

An impression Is abroad to the eff.
feet that all a man has to do to find
out about his soil is to send it to an ex-
pertinent station and have it analysed.
1t Is thought that the chemist can put
IL into some kind of a machine, pass 1t
through some kind of q quick.acting
process and be at once able to read
the whole story of the soils fertility.
This Is not possible. Soil analysis is
long process and also an expensive
one, as 1t takes the time of high
priced men. Often these men are in
structors, who have many other du.
ties in addition to those relating to
soil analysis. A single experiment
station could analyze but few samples
in a year, compared with the number
OF farms in the state. After the analy.
sis, the owner would know little more
about his soil than he did before.
The chemical analysis shows what
are the constituents of the soil, but
1t does not show the proportion avail
able for plant food. Much Of the fer
tility shown by the analysis was
locked up in an insoluble form and
would have been released only after
long periods of time. Moreover the
truth does not come out as to the
ability of the soil under certain con-
litions, nor the amount of humus pres
emit. Soils fail to produce crops even
when they have in them an abundant
supply of plant food. One crop may
be failure because the acidity of the
soil is too great, while another crop
may fail because the land is too wet.
One soil may be unproductive because
the humus has been worked out of 1t
in half century's tillage, permitting
the ground to bake hard in the dry
time of summer. .... ........
The farmer that would make living
off from land that is inclined not to
give him large crops, has many prob
lens to study. If he solves the prob
lens Alright he may bring his land up
to state of great produetiveness.

Potato Raisinu.

In Whiteside county good many
potatoes are raised, the area on each
farm devoted to potatoes being from
one to rs acres. For early potatoes we
do our planting about the first to the
tenth Of April. For late potatoes we
do our planting from the 25th of April
to the 10th of May. We generally cut
our potatoes so that each piece will
have two eyes. The seeding Is done
with a planter and is in>drills. / do
not know of any being planted in hills
here. l have tried using whole pota-
toes for seed, but the result seems to
be that there are too many tops and
the tubers grown are too small.

We plant with planter, which leaves

should be narrowed at least three
times before they come up, and | usu-
ally harrow them at least once after.
Then they can be plowed with an or

signal cures, such as that which is here

ment and her cure:
''For two years suffered from trying
nervousness in my lower limbs from my

cepted as unavoidable because heredi-
