impulse that includes all Europe. Sure

no greater diplomats in the world than

Iowa Falls, Nov. 1.-THE day of milk
separators in the creameries of this
part of the state seem about past, and
the prediction is made by those in
close touch with the creamery busi-
ness, that within a very short time,
creameries will refuse to receive milk
and demand that the customers of the
plant separate their own milk at home
and bring the cream to the factory.
This change has been gradual in re-
cent years, and seems to be growing
popular among the patrons of the
creameries. MS it affords the farmer the
use of the milk at home. and saves
trouble of transportation to and from
