Caring For Separated Cream.
In my opinion, the best method is to
keep all utensils clean, says a writer
In Kimbau's Dairy Farmer. Cleanli.
ness is one of the first laws Of nature,
and too much Of 1t cannot be applied
In handling cream to bring the highest
market value. BY cleaning l mean at
first, after the cans come from the
creamery, to rinse them with cold wa
ter, wash and scald them with hot wa
ter thoroughly, SO as to destroy all the
bacteria. When this is done place the
cans outdoors in a rack to drain in the
sunshine. The cream after it comes
from the separator should be removed
as o as possible to a clean. cool and
we'll ventilated room. Cream absorbs
all kinds of odors, and the butter made
from tainted cream will not be up to
the standard.
After cooling the res In a cold
water tank cover to keep all particles
Of dust out. Do not mix newly sep
arated cream with that which is older,
as 1t will cause it to sour in a few
hours. In winter l keep It at an ever
temperature as nearly as possible. In
order to obtain the best esults the
cream should be churned every other
day. IL taken to the creamery 1t
should be delivered at least three
times a week in hot weather and twice
in cold weather.
Testing Pays.
Test your cows and sell the unproft-
able ones. Recently Professor Err Of
the Kansas Agricultural college on
cluded tests for a year Of the college
cows. He found that n COW charged
81 cents per pound for her butter,
while another charged "a cents per
pound. The other cows ranged be-
| tween these figures. He also found
that by selling half the herd he could
make a handsome profit, while if he
kept them all he could not make. a
cent. Thousands of cows are now be-
ing MIXED in this country that are a
dead loss to their owners. To correct
this condition the farmer should weigh
the milk from each cow daily and
make a test for butter fat about once
every seven weeks. He should ven
tilate, tighten and cleanse his stable
and keep the cows comfortable all the
time. He should study the principles
of scientific feeding and balance his
feeds into the best milk producing ra-
ton, and he should get-a good, pure
bred dairy bull and raise and train
bis heifers into good milk cows

LAST Saturday the new post

0nder his recent appointment.
1Ae writer retiring from the

Duster Of the democrats to pre-
vent the passage of the ship

don, and at the close of the ses-
sion the new congressman who
were elected by the lnsurgent
upheaval last fall, came into
omce and the name OF Mr..
Nilsson was presented by them
aud the appointment secured for
him. The retiring postmaster
fully recognizes the old slogan
nat ITO the victors belongs the

that he has no grief in surrend-

A COW requires from eight to ten gal.
Ions Of water daily IL she Is capable Of
giving IN abundance Of milk. Water
is the largest proportion Of the milk,
and the COW should have a sufficient
amount to use In manufacturing milk
as we'll as for supplying her bodily re-
Quirements. If the COW must seek wa
ter In some low. shallow place in the
pasture she will be compelled to use
that which is not pure. Good pure wa
ter should be accessible to the cows at
al times, for they have no regular time
for drinking. Every farm should have
a plentiful supply Of pure water for the
cows, says Western Life, as they can.

New Creamery Law In Iowa.
: The legislature Of Iowa has passed a
law requiring all creamery operators to
pasteurize skim milk at 1856 degrees be-
fore delivery to the patrons. The bill
went through both houses with sub
stantial majorities. It IL understood
that the moving cause of the law was
the spread Of tuberculosis among hogs
that are fed on the ordinary creamery
skim milk. If every farmer would do
as he should do and tuberculin test his
cows once each year we would soon
have none Of this disease to destroy
our cows and hogs. When the pinch
comes, maybe some Of them will see 1t.
