HANDLING GLORIOUS MILK.
"a. N. Finstad.)

A. N. F1nStaQ.)
When the milk intended for the
cheesery shows foreign odors many
remedies are applied hoping to lessen
the effect upon the cheese. The best
place to remedy such milk is on the
milk stand by refusing to accept 1t Tin
case where taints can be detected be-
fore milk is heated) and explain to the
patron the cause of such faint and
how to overcome same on the farm.
This is the cheapest remedy to all fac
torymen although it cannot be applied
at all places where strong competition
exists; but you can explain the cause
and the remedy for same in nice way
and the effect will be astonishing.
Some taints are more persistent than
others. AS a usual thing faint can
not be gotten entirely out OF cheese.
Taints due to the feeding of turnips,
cabbages and like foods to cattle can
be prevented by feeding in small guam
titles just after milking and the results
will not show in the milk. Washing
curds at time of dipping with water
at a temperature of los to ITO degrees
F. according to the cook on curd)
will wash out a great deal of faint.
The most common faint met with
in cheese making is gas, and this, as
before said, can be remedied on the
milk stand. If the patron will give
the milk a good airing soon after milk
ing and cool same down to 70 degrees
F. or below, the cheesemaker Will not
be troubled with gassy curds, l. e.,
providing he uses his rennet test cor
rectly, and other methods accordingly.
This defect can be overcome by r1pen-
ing the milk more, running more acid
in the whey, rinsing the curds at dip
ping and before sailing, and mating
curds to flatten the pin holes; also
stir and air curds thoroughly. When
I have bad milk I salt higher to I'M
prove the flavor, for, up to certain
point, this can be accomplished by
heavier sailing Washing or rinsing
curds and ripening milk more than
usual greatly affect the yield (also
running more acid in Whey and
should be applied only as last resort
In very obstinate cases curd can be
put in the hoops and pressed fifteen
minutes to fatten pin holes before
sailing. Rinsing curds before sailing
has very little effect on yield and can
be applied every day to expel the sur
plus fat, thus making nicer cheese.

THE DAIRY
QUESTION OF BUTTER WEIGHT,

QUESTION OF BUTTER WEIGHT.
Lutte Wilcox, editor of the Denver
Field and Farm, has been poking fun
at the new pure food law in so far as
it relates to butter. Here is a sample
of his incisions
The new national pure food law
which went into effect the first of the
month is somewhat pernickity on the
point of weights and measures and
the ukase is sending the butter max
ers on the run. Uncle Sam requires
that the exact weight of butter, for
instance, shall be specified on the re-
tail package when it is put up in
pound prints. Generally speaking
butter is full weight when printed,
but no machine will cut the various
grades into squares and make them
all the same weight. In this dry eli
mate the fluctuation is usually half
an ounce to the pound and in order to
comply with the law it may be neces-
sary to brand the pound print a half
an ounce under it's actual weight.
Butter contains from ten to sixteen
per cent of moisture which is neces-
sary to make it palatable. The loss
of moisture is greatest the first day
after it is made and will amount to
from a quarter to half an ounce and
Is IL ounces therefore represents the
actual weight when the consumer gets
it because of the exacting conditions
of the arid climate, and this is Great
ing the deuce among the manufacture
ers and packers who want to do an
honest business and keep out of the
clutches of the law. Some consumers
naturally ask why the butter is not
put up half an ounce more so that 1T
will weigh sixteen ounces when they
get it. Why should the makers give
16 IL ounces for pound? 1t would
be just as consistent to put in lot
of time wondering why the tail of one
dog is longer than that of another
This matter of climatic f1uctuation is
likely to set up quite contention II
the government wants to act grouty
about it.
The discussion as to which is the
better, the strictly dairy type or the
dual purpose cow, still continues. Both
are right in part A man living near
a big city who has a special high
priced trade for milk or butter or both
will probably do better with strictly
dairy breed, because he can soon make
the price of a cows weight in beef by
feeding in such way as to get large
return in milk On the other hand, a
farmer living remotely, with plenty OF

range, and who grows beef producing
feeds, will make more money by rails
ing calves from COWS that will make
larger quantities of beef and perhaps
not give SO much milk. He will make
more money from the amount of milk
that he does get, supplemented by the
amount of beef he can make from the
growing stock than he would by keep
ing a small dairy breed and depend
ing entirely upon the amount of money
received for milk products alone.
There is plenty of room for the smaller
dairy breeds and there is continually
growing demand for large cows that
will milk and beef well.

THE COW AND HER KEEPING.

In considering the cost of keeping
a COW, farmers often overlook the vital
point in question. 1t is not so much
the cost of the feed that the COW
consumes but rather the cost OF the
product. There is where the real glst
of the thing lies. For instance, a COW
eives 5000 pounds of milk year and
if costs $50 per year to feed her. That
makes her milk cost cent per pound
besides the labor. But if she gives
6 900 pounds at no greater outlay for
feed, the milk then would cost but hair
a cent pound. But suppose IL costs
$40 a year to feed her, the milk then
would cost but three-quarters OF
cent per pound. The objective point
with every farmer should be to secure
large producing COWS, not to cut down
the amount of feed. All this foolish
mixed breeding, scrub breeding, using
grade sires, and dual purpose breeding
so-called has resulted in lowering the
milk producing power of the average
COWS of the country. When feed was
cheap the farmer did not feel the
pinch so much. The way to get
larger producing COW is clear and
simple. Here are few guide points
on the way:
1. Make the stable warm, clean and
we'll ventilated. Your cows must live
there at least 200 days in the year.
Have a comfortable system of tying
them.
2. Then breed rightly. Use only
well bred registered sire of pro-
nounced dairy breed. Don't throw
away future dollars in the producing
powers of the heifers by trying to
save on the cost of the bull to start

'The point to be conveyed to the
public is that they should not now
be led to believe that they can initi-
ate rights which give a return for
the money they are induced to invest;
and that the public should not now
be led to believe that, prior to any
successful determination of the con-
troversy in favor of the government,
there is any public domain subject to
entry.

be presented by The Telegram cor
respondent, decline to discuss. The
remedies which the department of
justice will ultimately adopt absolute
ly dispose of all provate opinions that
may be presented. What course the
department of justice will take de-
pends upon the reports of officers

GERS should be relied upon to accom-

on to determine just and equitable
conclusion of the whole matter,
without regard to the varying opin-
