THE SEPARATOR.
Be Careful to Keep Il serupuiously
Clean and Sanitary.

Probably NO one thing connected
with dairying II OF more importance
than keeping the utensils clean. The
following rules should be carefully
observed:
A cream separator should be thor
oughly washed every time after using.
A brush should be used on every part
and piece, using per cent solution
Of borax or other good washing pow
der. Rinse In hot water, or steam II
possible. They should then be left
to dry while hot Wiping with an or
binary clean cloth communicates uten-
sils with innumerable bacteria
The bacterial contamination In milk
Is increased from three to Ave times
by running it through a separator
bowl which has been used and only
flushed and left standing several
hours. If only flushed while using, for
several days, the contamination in
creases several times more, and such
milk would be likely to be detrimental
if fed to calves.
The use of cream separator that Is
thoroughly washed reduces the num-
Der of bacteria in milk one-fifth to one
fourth.
Improper cleaning is detrimental to
separator on account of the rust that
accumulates on dirty or damp places.
This may shorten the life of the ma
chine many months, depending on the
degree of cleanliness employed
Running milk through a dirty separ.
ator is similar to running it through
dirty strainer, with all of the filth
of the previous milking left in 1t from
IL to "a hours. The millions Of unde
sirable bacteria from the dirt, manure
and slime lodged in the separator
bowl spoil all the milk, to a greater OF
lesser degree, that passes through the
machine
When properly used, a cream sep
arator is clarifier and to a certain
extent purifier, but If not kept
clean 1t is a source of filth and con
animation.
1t is more important to follow these
directions at this season of the year
although they are appropriate for al
seasons. The warmer the weather
the more rapidly bacteria develop, and
therefore the more rapidly milk and
cream become damaged. 1t is impor
tant now because 1t is the farmers
busy season, and with the press oil
other work he Is tempted to neglect
the important matter of keeping his
dairy utensils In perfect order.
Again, the creameries are every
year becoming more and more par
ticular as to the cream or milk which
they purchase. The more particular
they become. the better 1t Is both fol
the creamery and for the farmer; and
hence 1t stands every man In hand tt
be able to furnish cream or milk Of
the highest quality, which can be
done only by taking special care of the
utensils, and especially of the sep
arator.

Rodrick-Just look at the illu-

every gas jet burning all day long.
Van Albert-Oh, that's Just a lit

gas bill this month. His wife is

her he had been remaining at home

went away. If she looked at the gas

Mother Earth.

When Junius Brutus and the sons Of
Tarquin asked the famous Delphic Or
acle who was to succeed Superbus on
the throne of Rome they received for
an answer, "He who shall first kiss bis
mother" As the two princes were has
tening home to fulfill what they
thought was meant Brutus fell to the
earth and cried out, "Thus do / kiss
thee, o Earth, the mother of us ALP

TURKEY DOOMED.

A regenerated Turkey is going to
take back all her old possessions in
Guiding Herzegovina and Bosnia, so
the Austrians would better come in
out of the wet and give them up in
time.
1t is a splendid dream, worthy of
a Turk of the days when the banner
of the prophet swept to victory on
thousand fields of battle. But dead
empires are not revivifed. Disin-
tegration, not conquest, is the doom
of the land of the sultan.-N. Y.

Should Savings Banks Advertise?

The Hyde Park Savings Bank belives
in advertising, notwithstanding that
some institutions in the same line have
criticised them quite openly for this be-
lief
Regardless of all criticisms, however,
the HYDE Park institution has kept on
advertising, and as a result the presi-
dent, Carroll S. Page, says that during
these months of financial stress in which
many banking institutions have been
struggling to hold their own, the money
has been steadily and freely pouring into
the Hyde Park bank.
No better illustration of what adver-
Using wi do could be asked for. OF
course the HYDE Park bank has got the
goods, the Vermont public likes the
banks plan of keeping Vermont money
in Vermont, and also likes its record of
having been run for nineteen years with
out losing a dollar by bad note.
Yes, the Hyde Park bank has got the
goods, but the public might never know
it if the bank didn't advertise.
1t started out to get deposits and the
results justify the method. 1t also fur
nishes very good evidence that advertis-
ing pays Brandon Union.

Spring.

Written for the CALIFORNIAN
Ho bold. young spring,
From off thy wing,
The glittering ices fall,
And soft greens rise
With humid eyes,
As they hear your joyful call.
Who ever knew
A friend like you
Their post to be forsaking,
Though cold and chill
The winds blow still,
Earth knows it's time for waking.
The buds burst out
To look about
They heard a robin singing.
And knew that earth
At spring-time birth
With happiness was singing.
With CLEAN and gush
The brooklets rush
Onward toward the river.
The wild flowers blow,
And all below
with teeming life doth CULVER.
o fair young spling
To thee we cling,
For thine is youth and gladness.
With hopes bright rays
For future days,
There Is no room for sadness.
Then glide along
With laugh and song.
Skipping, glancing and dancing,
For grave with fears
And how'd with years
Grim age is sure advancing.

Deafness Cannot Be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot reach
the diseased portion of the ear. There is only
one way to cure deafness, and that is by con-
stitutional mmedies Deafness is caused by
an inflamed condition of the mucuous lining
of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube is
infamed you have rumbing sound or i'm
perfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed,
Deafness is the result, and unless the intam-
nation can be taken out and this tube
restored to its normal condition. hearing will
be destroyed forever; nine cases out of ten are
caused by Catarrh, which is nothing but an
infamed condition of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for any
case OF Deafness (caused by catarrh) that
cannot be cured by Halls Catarrh Cure.

Ely'S Cream Balm has been tried and
not found wanting in thousands of

a place in the family medicine closet
among the reliable household remedies,
where it is kept at hand for use in treat
ing cold in the head just as soon as some
member of the household begins the pre-

immediate relief and a day or two's
treatment will put stop to cold which

and run into a bad case of catarrh.
