VARIATIONS IN CREAM TESTING.
Why Different Results Are Obtained
with One Mans Product.

One of the most common causes for
dissatisfaction with selling cream is
the variations in the test. This is
especially true when each can OF
cream is tested separately which is
now considered the best method.
1t is quite a puzzle to the. average
man who has not had much expert.
ence with cream separators to under.
stand why his test varies when the
same separator, run by the same man,
is used all the time and the cows
feed is not changed, but the tests do
vary and this fact does not indicate
that careless testing is being done as
1t is practically impossible to run a
separator under farm conditions with
out having the cream vary; in fact
If the cream test always the same, II
would be more suspicious than when
1t varies slightly. The causes are:
l. Variation in speed of separator.
2. Variation in rate CT feeding sep
arator.
3. Amount of water or skim milk
used for flushing bowl.
4. Changes in per cent. of butter
fat in milk.
5. Changes in cream screw.
A change in the speed of running a
separator at once changes the per
cent. of butterfat in cream. The high
er it is speeded the greater the amount
OF skim milk thrown out and this re-
suits in giving smaller amount Of
higher testing cream; a low speed
gives a larger quantity of thinner
cream.
Many separator users think they
always feed the separator at the same
rate on account of the float governing
the inflow; this Is not the case, as at
times the faucet is not opened quite
its full capacity, or at one time the
milk tank is kept full of milk, which
makes the inflow some faster than
at another time when the tank may be
allowed to run low most Of the time;
whenever the flow of milk into the
bowl is increased larger amount Of
thinner cream results.
A common cause of variation in
cream tests is connected with flush
Ing the bowl. It is very easy mat
ter to vary a pint or more in the
amount of water or skim milk used
for flushing, and this alone may be
sufficient to change the test of cream
2 to 5 per cent.

PROTEIN FOR DAIRY cows.
Care Must Be Used in Feeding This
High-Priced Ration.

Some recent careful Investigations
have shown that smaller amounts of
protein in dry matter can be fed to
dairy cows than is usually thought
necessary. AS the protein is the
costly part of the ration the use Of
less of this in the feed will reduce
the cost of production.
A ration containing relatively more
corn silage and less cottonseed meal
gave greater profit, because of the
lower cost. of concentrates. Much
larger profits were made from the
cows fed ration which was below
the standard in the amount of pro-
tein. In an 80-days' test as much as
ten dollars was saved, due to the
change in rations.

One month later found the queen
Of Sheba well on her way to the
land of Israel. Her determination to
make the long, perilous journey had
come as surprise and shock to her
people, but when they realized her
earnestness Of spirit and desire to
learn the truth of the wonderful
things she had heard, they had at
last heartily entered into her plans
and had laden her camels with the
richest treasure which her kingdom
afforded, for, said they:
"Our queen shall carry off her best
to the land where the great and
mighty God rules
But, oh, the wearisomeness OF that
long journey. Had not her desire
been so great she would have turned
back more than once. But it was
when on the burning sands of the
desert that the greatest test came
There was murmuring among her
great retinue of servants and she was
weary and faint, and their water was
almost exhausted. Should she go on
or should she turn back? Did not her
own country offer all that her heart
could desire?
"But / would know of this wonder
full King Solomon, and of the God who
has his dwelling place in the midst OF
his people," she cried almost in
despair at last. "Yea, I will keep my
face set steadfastly toward this land
of Israel, though perish in the at
tempt"
And with the final resolve and the
putting away of the temptation to
turn back there came peace to her
heart and she said, softly: Perhaps
the God whom I seek will bring me
back this way after have seen all
the wonderful things of which / have
heard"
"Yes," said the queen, lifting her
eyes and looking about her. Eyes, !

"6ehoId, greater than Solo
mon Is here" Do you hear the
challenge Of Scripture? A con-
temptation of this story of Solo,
mon and appreciation of his wis
dom and glory bring with them
nothing but condemnation In
that we can discern the splen-
doris that marked his life and
. Reign while at the same time
we miss the beauty and charm Of
the son of God, the greater than
Solomon.
"The queen of the south shall
rise up In the judgment with
this generation and shall con.
denim It," And the judgment
will be just, for how can we es-
cape when we have neglected
so great opportunity of seeing
and knowing him who is called
Wonderful, Counsellor, The
Mighty God, The Everlasting Fa-
ther, The Prince of Peace?"
True it Is of the world as lsa-
iah declares: "When we shall
see him, there is no beauty that
we should desire him. He is
despised and rejected OF men,
man of sorrows and acquainted
with grief; and we hid as 1t
were our faces from him; he
was despised and we esteemed
him not." It is not that the
beauty and the glory and the
power are not there, but 1t is
that we turn our faces from
him who would reveal all these
things to us, and see only the
temporal things Of life.
Having ears we hear not. But
not so with the queen of Sheba,
the country far, far to the south,
for when tidings came of
certain King Solomon, and Of
his wisdom and the splendors of
his kingdom, she listened to the
story, and determined that she
would prove to her own ears
and her own eyes that all she
had heard was true. And SO
she came!
"CAME! Do you grasp the sig.
nificance Of that word? Where
you are now dwelling In ease
and contentment you will never
be able to know that these
things which are spoken OF the
greater King Jesus are true.
You have heard the reports.
You have been told over and
over again by those who have
core straight from the presence
OF King Jesus that he and he
alone can satisfy the heart of
man, and yet you have been
content to stay where you are
In the far country Of sin. Why
not, like the queen OF Sheba,
come and prove whether the
things you have heard are really

King Solomon received the
queen Of Sheba because she
came as an honest inquirer. He
was willing that she should see
and hear and know. And the
greater than Solomon invites
