Laundry work at home would be
much more satisfactory If the right
Starch were used. In order to get the
desired stiffness, it is usually neces-
sary to use SO much starch that the
beauty and fineness Of the fabric is
hidden behind a paste Of varying
thickness, which not only destroys the
appearance, but also affects the wear
ing quality of the goods. This trou-
BILE can be entirely overcome by using
Defiance Starch, as 1t a be applied
much more thinly because of its great
err strength than other makes.

SECRET Or GOOD .sEAm.
Suggestions Which n FoIlcwed W.ll
Give Good Resul'a.

The following suggestions are given
as a guide for the production OF cream
OF good quality:
l. Clean cream, cold cream, and
rich cream are the three words which
tell the secret of producing sweet
cream.
2. He clean and sanitary in milkiag.
3. Have all pals, crooks, cans. and
dairy utensils scalded and clean.
4. Keep the separator clean by
washing after each separating.
8. Cool each lot of cream in cold
water before setting 1t away and have
1t thoroughly cooled before adding to
the general lot of cream. "a good way
Is never to mix a fresh batch of
cream with older cream, but keep
each lot from the different separat-
ings, separate and in one-gallon
crocks.)
6. Have a wellventilated cave or
cool cellar in which to keep the
cream.
7. Stir each of the separate lots OF
cream every day to keep them uni
form.
s. Have a wire screen for each
crock so as to "air the cream and
keep out flies and insects.
8. Skim a rich cream-35 to As per
cent-and it will keep sweet longer.
10. Deliver the cream to the cream
cry or receiving station three times a
week In summer and twice a week in
winter.
H. Insist upon the creameryman
weighing out the sample of cream for
a test instead of measuring in a pip
cite. The scales are more accurate.
~. Have the cows come fresh in
September and October and receive
rs to 30 cents a pour>s for the butter
fat in winter instead of Is t o 20 cents
q pound in summer.
10. Make a study of the herd OF
cows, select the best ones, sell The
poor ones, buy or raise more good
ones, grow more cowpea and alfalfa
hay for winter feeding, and make the
COWS keep you instead of you keeping
tho COWS.

Ghosts OF Dead Lakes.

IN the great basin between the
Rockies and the Sierra Nevadas lie
the ghosts Of many dead lakes. Riv-
ers still flow down to the dry edge Of
these one-time great reservoirs and
are licked up by evaporation and the
chinook winds. OF all the lakes that
one lay there, only Great Salt Lake,
Lake Tahoe and Bear Lake are left.
The Southern Pacific rolls for 165
miles across the bed of what was once
Lake Lahontan, and the passengers
gazing idly from the windows may see
the terraces and wrinkles in the crust
of the fossil lake which nature robbed
and %defrauded of its crystal treasures
ages ago.-Exchange.

A BAD PRACTICE.
Don't Let the Milk Remain in the
Barn After Milking.

A good many keepers of cows have
In the COW stable and behind the cows,
pegs on which to hang the milk pals
that are too full of milk tc prevent
their being further used at that milk
ing. A man fills the pail, hangs it on
the hook and proceeds to milk anoth.
er cow. By the time the milking IL
completed several pals have been
hanging on the pegs for 10 minutes
to half an hour. In addition the emp.
ty pals hung on the same pegs before
they were taken for milking purposes
and just as readily gathered germs as
when they had the milk in them. So
far as the mixer can see, there is no
reason why this practice should not
be continued. The pals look clean
when they are taken down to be used
for milking purposes and the milk in
the pals that have been hanging there
looks as clean as any other milk. The
pals are hung too high to catch any
visible dirt. The custom is bad, says
the Northwestern Agriculturist, but
its badness is hard to prove because
the student and the scientist know
that the air is full of odors and germs
that are constantly settling in the
pals to become manifest later in bad
favored butter or quickly souring
milk. The milk should be removed
from the stable as fast as MIXED, that
the time exposure to bad odors may
be as short as possible.

sAHARA GROWING DRYER.
French Observer Says the Gases Are
Shrinking and viii Disappear.

G. r. Gsutier, a French explorer, is
authority for the statement that the
Sahara Is continuously becoming drier
to such an extent that the GASES are
perceptibly drying up and will disap-
pear altogether in a relatively short
time. He quotes historic records and
physical signs to show that springs
were at n time more plentiful than
now, and that the extent OF the
patches where vegetation flourishes
were much greater even so to 100
years ago.
AS the climate Of the region has un-
dergone no change In perhaps thou
sands Of years, he believes that the
disappearance Of the water must be
due to purely mechanical causes. He
considers that 1t is due to the con-
tinual advance Of the great sand
masses to the north, thus forming an
Impenetrable barrier against the wa
tershed Of the Atlas mountains.-N. Y.

1t has been calculated that the cost
of a muddy day in London Is some
thing like $4,000. This is not sur.
prising, says Tit-Bits, when one re-
members that nc fewer than 80 tons
of mud are carried about from place
to place on the wheels Of carts and
carriages and horses hoofs. After a
wet day the dry mud brushed from
peoples clothing amounts to 15 tons,
and a very similar amount is shaken
out Of the door mats. City mud,
however, has its good points. The
shoeblack increases his earnings in
