GOOD CLOVER SEED.

When it comes to paying from $40
to s12 a bushel for clover or alfalfa
seed one should be able to judge some
thing of the quality of the stuff he
buys. A first rate quality of red Glow
err seed should be of fair size, pur-
pie and yellow colors predominating,
and always with lustre. II a sample
is small, with many shrivelled, brown
seeds in it, it should be rejected with
out hunting for impurities. Many ask
how to tell red clover from mammoth.
It is impossible to distinguish the
seed. The buyer must depend upon
the honesty of the seller.
Alfalfa seed has a light, olive green
color. It is about the same size as
red clover seed. 1t has various FORMS
but is quite easily distinguished. The
dead and worthless seeds are the
brown colored ones. Amy sample
which contains brown seed should be
rejected. Shrivelled seed indicates
that the crop was not mature. when
it was harvested; brown seeds indf-
cate old seed-that is, when either
alfalfa or clover seed contains a large
percentage of very dark seed it is
safe to assume that the seed is too
old to give good results. A 50-cent tri-
pod lens will be an immense help IN
determining the quality of any seed
which may be offered for SALE c.

ToR BUTTER AND CHEESE.

FOR BUTTER AND sCfiUESE.
Makers OF butter and cheese have
found large advantage in using bac-
terra cultures as starters in their
work. These are commercial starters
on the market, but a recent bulletin
of the Michigan station tells how
every one may make their own start
ers, and they are inexpensive. The
bulletin says:
Some of the commercial starter
casually employed IS put into sterilized
whole milk and allowed to develop
there for twenty-four hours at a IA
~orable temperature. For ease in
manipulation the milk is sterilized
In a quart bottle plugged with cot
ton. On the second day a portion of
this milk is transferred to another
bottle of sterile milk to continue the
growth of the organisms, and the re-
naainder is poured into a can of re-
Gently pasteurized skim milk. The
latter is again kept for twenty-four
heurs at a temperature favorable to
the growth of the organisms, and is
then used as a starter for sweet
cream. At the same time a portion
of the second bottle of innoculated
sterile milk in which the organisms
have been growing for twenty-four
hours is transferred to third bottle
OF sterile milk, and the remainder
of the second bottle Of inoculated
another can of pasteurized skim milk
for the use as a starter on the follow
ing day. 1t is claimed that this meth
cd of growing bacteria, II properly
handled, will maintain a culture that
will give uniform results for an indefi-
mite period.
THE starter can be kept for a much
longer period, thus saving one-half
or more of the cost OF pure cultures.
'The milk is always ready for inocu-
Yation and the mother starter can be
transferred each day when in the
best condition and kept vigorous.
''In case starter is not needed
every day the mother starter can be
carried along conveniently without
trouble of steri1izing milk.
"After a thorough trial we have
adopted the method for our daily use.
We find it no great task to sterilize
the bottles of milk once or twice a
month, and the little extra labor thus
occasioned is more than Offset by the
convenience and sureness of the meth.

HORSES FOR FARMERS TO GROW

= bid
AS rule there may be some ex-
ceptions--but as a rule the profitable
horses to grow on the farm are the
big drafters. The Drovers' journal
says that draft horses bred now are Of
greater weight than they were a
decade ago, as the trend of demand
is for horses Of weight to move pom
derous loads at a moderate pace. A
1400-pound horse is hardly large
snough for an expresser, while the
industrial draft horse weighs 1000
pounds to upward of a ton A pair
o. extreme weight drafters will haul
a load of six to eight tons and are
more economical of maintenance than
two pairs OF lighter horses that would
be required 10 perform the same work.
The general farmer wants a horse of
docile disposition, adapted to work
on the farm and easily marketed at
good price. With so many heavy
agricultural machines on the farm
the draft horse can be utilized to bet
ter advantage in general field work
than can any other class.
Draft horses are free sellers at
good prices from weanlings to mature
classes. Their superb qualities have
been acquired by centuries of meth
odical selection and breeding and they
have achieved permanent place in
the commerce of nations Prices may
fiuctuate with the times, but good
draft horses will always return the
farmer reasonable profit on the cost
