CONSIDERING AN
EXTRA SESSION
GOVERNOR SPARKS SENDS FOR
EXPRESSION OF OPINION
FROM MEMBERS.

Governor Sparks is considering the
advisability of calling an extra ses-
sion of the legislature for the pur-
pose Of taking action in regard to the
money situation, and the possible
postponement Of the payment of
taxes. The chief executive has been
approached by a number of people
on the subject, but does not seem
inclined to AXE it upon himself tt
call the session. For this reason he
has addressed letters to all the leg
islators, asking their advice on the
matter. Following is a copy of the
letter:
To the Members Of the Legislature
and the Citizens of the State:
There are many citizens of this
state, who have expressed a desire to
me for a special session of the legis-
lature for the purpose of giving re-
lief to taxpayers in the several coun-
ties of the state by extending pay.
ment to such time as the Legislature
may deem expedient.
We feel positive that the financial
condition of the state is such that nc
serious inconvenience would ensut
from a reasonable postponement.
In former years the banking insti
tutions of the state have met the de
mands Of the taxpayers by advancing
money in the way of loans or over
drafts. 1t appears to me now. tina
under the clearing house system, tn,
banks would not do this. However

people in Tonopah and had received
very encouraging assurances of sup
port, and had already made some
collections. He said that their was
a better feeling in the city regarding
finances, and that conditions were
improving.
l.. L. Mushett called the attention
of the committee to the fact that it
would be necessary to get out some
literature regarding the properties,
as there had been a great number OF
inquiries directed to the secretary OF
the committee and to that of the
committee at Manhattan. There had
been a number of replies to the ques-

EFFECT OF BACTERIA in
WASH WATER OF BUTTER
OF Experiments c. h.
Dairy MAJ Kansas Experiment Station.

One of the greatest sources of con-
tamination in creamery butter is that
of impure wash water. Cream may be
we'll pasteurized, and the best of start
er may be added so as to produce a
perfect flavor, and the entire product
may be spoiled by washing 1t with
the average creamery water.
For the past few years butter has
been greatly improved by pasteuriza-
tion and the use of starter made from
commercial cultures. By this method
some butter makers have made an av-
erage score of from SO to 81 for weeks,
and in some cases months, in success
sion. Occasionally, however, the but
ter is off flavor, and in almost every
case where butter has scored well
when first churned, after remaining
in cold storage for few months, or
after being in the market few days,
the flavor has fallen from one to five
points. This can be traced in many

Some OF our most progressive and
practical farmers advertise regularly
In the leading agricultural papers, and
It pays them so we'll that not one of
them thinks of farming without adver-
tising. But there Is more or less ad-
vertising, of certain kinds, that farm
ers cannot afford to place in an agri-
cultural paper, and which would not
pay in results because of its very ma
ture. This is what the farm bulletin
board is for
The sketch illustrates the first
board we made. 1t can be made very
easily and quickly and at little ex-
pense. If wide boards are used. get
good material and have 1t dressed on
both sides and jointed. If matched
stuff is used see that It is compara-
lively free from knots.
Cut the boards to run across the
bulletin board horizontally, as this
works better when writing on the
board with a crayon. A good size for
such bulletin board is about three
feet wide by five feet high. Use three

"wasteful Of salt because it is inexpen-
pensive. Pork may be salted with or
without brine, both methods being
about equally popular and satisfac-
tory. If brine is used there will be
mo danger from insects or mice during
the picking process. The brine eX-
tracts the blood and other juices from
the meat and is apt to spoil and
contaminate the whole case of pork
unless given attention. The way to
prevent this trouble is to give the brine
AN occasional boiling, skimming off
the impurities as they rise to the sur
face. In this way the brine may
be kept pure without impairing it's
strength, for any length of time. In
making brine, add salt to the water
until 1t Is sufficiently strong to float
AN egg or potato. 1t should be stirred
violently while the salt is being added.
What is known as dry sailing is
perhaps little easier, requiring less
work. This method is to salt the
pork In barrels or boxes without the
addition of water or brine. AS this
way does not exclude flies or maggots
from the meat, care should be taken to
cover the barrels with something that
will keep them out. When flies have
access to pork they. deposit their eggs
on the meat. These turn to maggots
or shippers and soon the meat is unfit
Gor use. Pork should be allowed to
stay In the brine or dry sailing casks
for six weeks and should receive more
salt, If necessary, during this period,

of about four ounces to 100 pounds of

Set the mail box on the same post,

in front of the farm. Then keep the
whole farm so that 1t will compare
favorably with the show case, and you
may acquire the reputation of being
a model farmer. Quite likely. Try it
and see.
Why should not we farmers adver-
tise our business the same as other
business men do in the various COM
mercial lines? We nearly always have
something to sell, and there is often

viding the water was cooled and used
Immediately after sterilizing When
the wash water was properly steril-
lied our butter topped the market
every time, and sold for from one
cent to three cents more per pound
than did the samples of butter which
had been washed with unsterilized

the water was practically nominal,
requiring only a few pounds of steam
and time enough to open the steam
valve to admit it into a water tank

and open an outlet where the latter
was admitted to a cooling tank.
Figuring the cost of fuel for pro-
duction of steam necessary to steril-
ize wash water for 1000 pounds of
butter in the average creamery at 15
cents per day, ice for cooling it at
20 cents per day, and extra labor in
The Beaver herald. [volume] (Beaver, O.T. [Okla.]) 1895-1923, 1907-05-02

handling 1t at ten cents per day,
amounts to so cents. Where 1000
pounds of butter per day are made,
which sells for one cent more per
pound on account of the use of sterile
water, it amounts to $40. Deducting
80 cents for labor, steam, and ice,
we have left $3.50 profit per day.
These figures are very conservative
and allow for a considerable loss of
steam and ice. For instance, one pound
of three dollar coal furnishes enough
heat to produce about eight pounds
of steam in the average boiler. Ap-
proximately 1852 pounds of steam at
IS pounds boiler pressure are required
to raise 1000 pounds of water from
60 degrees Fahrenheit to 212 degrees
Fahrenheit. To sterilize 1000 pounds
of water, or enough to wash 1000
pounds of butter, therefore requires
3O4 pounds of steam. This, according
to the above, requires 3S pounds of
coal at three dollars per ton, amount
ing to almost six cents. The figures for
ice and labor are equally conservative.
From this it is very evident that IL
Is entirely practical and economical
to sterilize wash water for butter, and
butter so made is more wholesome for
the consumers.

In order TO cure pork so that It will
keep, the carcass must be thoroughly
cooled of its body heat. and should
therefore hang for "a hours or more,
according to the temperature, before
1t is cut up. The mistake is often
made of hanging hogs out in severe
weather, allowing them to freeze on
the outside, while the meat next TO
the bone may still retain some of the
animal heat when the carcass is cut
up. The result will be souring, and
speedy decay will set in at the center
of the hams and shoulders that from
all outward appearances will seem in
good condition.
With large percentage of fat, side
pork will not become over salt and
there is no danger from over-salting
except to the leaner portions of the
carcass. Yet there is no need to be

UTILIZING STRAW.
How the Farmers Of West and North.
west Could Save Waste.

The waste Of straw in the west and
northwest is simply appalling, de-
clares Prof. Thomas Shaw. Even in
localities where farmers will tell you
that the land is low in vegetable mat.
ter, they will go on burning straw
from year to year. Incredible as 1t
may seem, the glare from burning
straw stacks may be seen every fall
from some part of the area covered
by the corporations of Minneapolis
and st. Paul
In this area OF straw burning, the
straw Is of the best for feeding. Il Is
brighter and less injured by dews and
rain than In the east, north and
south. When cut at the proper stage
of ripenlng, its value is very consid-
cradle for food. Live stock will eat
with considerable relish even wheat
straw thus harvested, when well
stacked Stock will eat oat straw
more readily than overripe hay, and
this applies to horses, colts, yard cat.
tie and sheep.
Much of the straw is too ripe be-
fore 1t is cut. This Is inevitable
where very large areas are grown.
but will be quite practicable where
the farming is mixed. The greatest
loss, however, comes in the stacking.
1t Is rare to see stack Where
threshing is done one sees simply
straw heaps made by the use of
blower.
With the aid of one extra man to
guide the blower and one on the
stack, the stacks could be built so as
TO turn rain. The stock, especially
cattle and horses, could go to these
stacks, usually made in the field, and
help themselves, and a large part of
the winters food could thus be Sc
cured. The manure made could then
be scattered over the farm. The west
ern man who burns straw, reasons
that 1t is easies to burn 1t than to
draw the residue and scatter it over
the land.
