Indian Summer.

Indian summer is the short spell OF
warm days in October or November ac-
centuated by the first chill Of autumn
which has preceded it. Sometimes it
lasts as long as fortnight, and it has
been observed to recur twice or thrice
In a season, though this is quite rare.
An atmospheric phenomenon of the
same nature has received the name Of
est Luke's summer" in Germany, "St.
Martins summer" in England, the
feasts of these saints being Oct. Is and
Nov. II respectively. The name In
dian summer is of an unidentified ORR
gin. 1t has been established that it
does not appear on any record earlier
than 1894, but when first recorded it
was as term in general use. The use
of the expression in 1878 by Horace
Walpole clearly referred to the torrid
summer of the West Indies and not to
this pleasant period of the northern
autumn.

Rain Coat For q Bear.

There is one big brown bear in New
York that gets coddled beyond belief.
He belongs to a Sixth avenue furrier.
He is not live bear. Even the mem
DRY of the oldest passenger on the ele-
waited road goeth not back to the time
of that bears demise; yet, in spite OF
his long period as a dead one" he Is
the sleekest, best groomed bear in New
York. That is because the furrier
takes such good care of him.
Storms are never allowed to beat
upon his glossy coat He cannot be
humored to the extent Of being brought
indoors during a downpour, because it
is his business to stand on a pedestal
outside and drum up trade, but the
next best thing is done for him. He is
provided with a rain coat. 1t covers
him from snout to tail; so, no matter
how hard the rain may beat or the
wind may blow, he is insured from
damage thereby.-New York Press.

White Specks In Butter.

The cause Of white specks in butter is
usually overripe cream, says Profess
or Harrington in Hoards Dairyman
When cream sours too far before churn-
ing, the curd in the cream is hardened
By the continued souring and contract
ed into small white specks, which may
be retained in the butter if not re-
moved by washing. AS rule, butter
Of this sort is more commonly made in
farm dairies than in creameries, be-
cause at the farm dairy cream Is col
lected for several days, and the first lot
of cream is likely to be very sour be-
fore the mixture of several days cream
is churned. This separates the curd,
AMI, although it is mixed quickly and
thoroughly through the cream during
churning, the harder specks are apt to
be left in the granular butter and not
washed out with the buttermilk.

FARMERS WOULD FIX PRICES
State Organization to Control and
Market ALI Produce.

Baraboo, Wis, May 25.-The Amer
lean Society of Equity, an organiza-
ton composed of farmers in WiScon-
sin, convened in this city for a two
days session Over 100 delegates
from all over the state were in at
tendance. The object of the meeting
is to control the supply of all products
till the markets are ready for 1T and
IN this way bring to the producers all
the benefits that are derived by others
from storing vegetables, fruits, eggs,
and the like at a time of plenty and
low prices for a time Of scarcity and
high prices. It is distinctly stated
that the new organiZa ton is not to
be trust, but it is proposed to elimin-
ate the individual as a marlSeter of his
products and market them through the
association, though they may reach
same channel as now.
One of the results of the new Sys-
tenn of marketing will be the greater
uniformity of prices and an increased
consumption of all products comprised
in the class over which this proposed
association will have control. For in
stance, the producers themselves or
their association will control the sup
ply until the demand is ready for it.
Then there will be no 10 cent eggs in
the summer and 80 cents in the win
ter. But only enough eggs will be
marketed during the harvest season to
supply the demand at a fair price.
The balance will go into storage for
the producers account, Or in store
houses owned by the producers, and
will come on the market in the winter
at about % cents a dozen. The uni
form and moderate prices will induce
much larger consumption.
With apples it will be similar. The
time when growers get $1.OO a barrel
in the fall and consumers pay $500
in the winter will be past, and so on
down the line ON other products.

Milwaukee, May 26.--Arthur G..
Reinke, receiving teller of the Marshall
& Ilsley bank, and regarded for years
as model Of pious demeanOr, spent
$4,000 of his banks funds in seeing
the sights of Chicago. Reinke is miss
ing and the police are looking for him.
The receiving teller was looked upon
as the type of man which mothers
might bid their sons initiate, and
while in Milwaukee always conducted
himself in Il most exemplary manner.
It was learned recently, however, that
during visits to Chicago he was ac-
custoJned to make on Sundays he was
"high roller" and his own salary
was not sufficient to enable him to live
the gay life he wished while there.
Bank Will Lose Nothing.
How long he was engaged in taking
money from the bank is not known.
His books are being examined. The
bank will lose nothing. as Reinke is
bonded for $1,000 by a surety com
pany and his relatives, it IS said have
promised to make up the remainder
His exposure came about through
an accident. A man from Chicago
who had business with the bank men
toned the fact that one of it's en-
ployes seemed to lead a gay life when
in Chicago.
After the visitor had gone Reinke
was called in by Cashier Publisher
and taxed with riotous living while on
visits to Chicago. He Indignantly de-
MED anything of the kind and made
his protest SO strong that the bank Of
fcials were almost convinced there
must be a mistake. However, to be
sure, they told Reinke he might take
a weeks vacation.
Experts at the Books
Meantime his books were looked
into. The experts had not gone far
before they began to find traces Of
missing cash. Blocks of $1,000 were
found to have disappeared mysterious
~, and the clearing house had been
charged with them. On investigation
it was found the clearing house knew
nothing of the missing moneys, and it
was seen that Reinke was short. The
amount kept piling up until it is adj
mitted that shortage Of $4,000 was
found, and it is rumOred that it ex.
ceeded this sum.
After being called up by Publisher,
Reinke disappeared. It is said that
he might be apprehended in a short
time.

In spite of some recent experiments
by the Geneva experiment station | be-
lieve one of the most frequent causes
of streaks in butter is due to lack of a
thorough distribution and dissolving
of the salt, writes E. Van Alstyne in
Rural New Yorker If the weather is
cold and the salt 10 to 20 degrees cold
er than the butter it will be very slow
to dissolve, and SO, being unevenly dis
tributed, the butter will show light
spots or streaks where there is no salt
to deepen the color. AS evidence of
this take two pounds of butter from
the same churning, salt one and leave
the other unsalted and note the differ
ence in color. find it wise to salt the
butter granules in the churn. In cold
weather the temperature there is much
warmer and more uniform than on the
worker. | also warm the salt.
Another good general rule is always
to wash the butter with water as warm
as can be used and keep the granules
in form. Sometimes insufficient work
ing is the trouble. As rule there is
liability to work too much rather than
too little. The above suggestions fol-
lowed will do away with unnecessary
working. AL that is needed is to get
the butterlHilk out-and this can best
be done in the churn by proper wash
ing-and then compact the butter to
about the grain of fine steel.
Improper ripening and temperature
of the cream may be another cause, or
the cream may have in it too large an
amount Of casein or skim milk. This
is most likely to occur in cream raised
in the shallow pan or with some form
of deep setting. Sometimes in the pan
the cream is exposed too long to the
air, and it becomes dry and will not
churn into butter. This can be pre-
vented by laying a piece of manila pa
per over the pans or the cream can be
strained through wire cover.

tiers; keep the manure from the cutters;
have the stable ventilated; have sys-
tenn OF tying up that will keep the
cows clean; use sanitary milk pals;
wear special milking clothes; brush the
udder before milking; reject the fore
milk; remove the milk from the stable
promptly.

Two Dairy Essentials.

Dairying is unquestionably profit
able business, but it must be done with
good cows that have good treatment
Poor cows will not pay even with good
treatment, and cows that start out
good soon fall into the class of poor
ones if they do not receive good treat
ment. The two must go together.

MONEY IN PARLOR ORGAN
Robbers Forced Secret from the De.
mented Son -NeighbOrs are
Under Suspicion.

Alma, Wis, May 2S.-Not many new
developments have come out in the
robbery and attempted murder case at
Gilmanton. The victim, Ole Skakarum,
is 80 years old. He lives with
demented son, one and one-half miles
house.
Early in the morning he was awak..
ened by pounding at the door and on
coming out was shot through the right
lung and struck on the head. The rob-
bers then forced the son to tell where
a parlor organ. After they left the
house the son went to neighbor who
telephoned for the doctor and went to
render the injured man aid. The rob-
bers had handkerchiefs tied over their
faces and one Of them wore a black
hat and the other brown one.
Skaharum had recently inherited S4,-
600 from a son who died in Colorado
and the robbers were after that money
but got only $3.50.
The work bears the earmarks Of
amateurs and it is evident that the
robbers and would-be murderers We're
we'll acquainted with the premises ana
the habits and circumstances Of their
victim. Suspicion points to parties in
the neighborhood who are being
watched and arrests may follow soon.
The sheriff and undersheriff from this
place are ON the ground and the local
authorities are aiding them in bring
ing the guilty to terms.
