Keenine Cream Sweet.

The first step in keeping cream
sweet is to keep it az clean as pos
sible. Clean cream cannot be produced
by filthy methods of milking nor by
handling the cream or milk in unclean
utensils. Milk cans, stirrers and pals
should be thoroughly scalded in hot
water and dried and exposed to the
sunlight and pure air.
The next step is to remove the ami
NAL heat from the cream as soon as
possible after separating. Run the
cream from the separator into con-
yenient utensil for cooling. A 8 or B.
gallon shotgun can is most convent
ent Cool the cream in we'll water
nv stirring. In a few minutes 1t can
be reduced to the temperature OF the
water. After the cream is cooled 1t
can be added to the cream contained
in the supply can used in delivering
cream to the station. The cream sup
NV can, while being filled and held for
delivery, should be kept in water at
as near the temperature of freshly
pumped water as possible. The aver
age temperature of well water IN
Kansas is about sc degrees. With 1t
cream can easily be held at So or 90
degrees, and at this temperature will
remain sweet for delivery in good
shape at the station.-Kansas Farmer.

Red Glover VS.. Alfalfa.

Some of the old-time dairymen are
coming around to the belief that red
clover such as was grown around Den
yer twenty-five or thirty years ago, is
better forage for the production of
milk than Is alfalfa as grown nova
days. Certain it is that we are not
now getting the quality of milk that
was produced a quarter of century
ago, when nearly everybody had
little patch Of clover. 1t was quite
natural, however, that we should have
exchanged the old friend for the new,
for the reason that red clover is bten-
NAL in it's habit of growth and under
the most ideal conditions will not fur
nish more than two cuttings of hay
in a season On the other hand, al
falfa is a perennial plant, and when
once established will continue to pro-
duce four and frequently five crops
in a season for several years In sue
cession and this is why our da1rymen
have chung to 1t through all these
years like a pup to a root. We are
10th to concede that red clover is the
better forage in the production of
milk, but it does look that way, and
we know farmers in different parts
of the State who are taking up it's
culture quite eXtensively.-D

COMING INTO CHRISTIAN LIFE.
BY Bishop S. M. Merrill

In studying different styles of ex-
perience the various temperaments Of
people must be taken into the account
as well as their training and habits;
for all these play important parts in
determining what they will do and
and coming into the Christian life, as
we'll as in advancing to the higher
states of grace. Many men of many
minds" and men of extremely differ
ent environments, are to be met and
rescued and transformed-cl eansed
and built up in the likeness of God.
The gospel If divine, must have provi-
sions and be sufficiently flexible to
meet every condition and to fit the
peculiarities and idiosyncrasies Of
every individual. 1t is therefore I'M
wise to expect that all will receive the
grace of God in the same way, while
there is folly in supposing that by any
possible constraint everyone can be
brought to measure up to one given
type of Christian experience, either in
its earlier or later stages Diversity
marks the work of God from Incl
piency to consummation. The founda-
ton principles of redemption and the
essential terms Of salvation are al
ways the same; but in the revelations
of saving power in the soul, and in all
the steps of progress following the in
duction into Christ, there are innum-
cradle varieties, giving to each man an
experience that is personal and unique
I" From all this the fact is readily de-
ducible that 1t is improper to make
any mans experience a standard or a
model for the experience of other peo-
pie Christ is the model man. His
active life as a man was perfect, and
to be initiated: but He never expert
enced the cleansing or washing from
sin which our sanctifcation implies
He was not regenerated or sanctif1ed
as sinners must be: and therefore He
never illustrated in anything He did
or suffered the process of passing from
sin to holiness. He declared and lived
I'D to the standard of moral purity
necessary for our complete union with
Himself, and made the way possible,
so that everyone, each with His per
sonal characteristics and His individ-
ual environments may come up to the
full measure of duty and privilege
without in the least ceasing to be him
self. The quiet man of phlegmatic
temperament can reach the high stand
ard and continue quiet; while the
man of impulsive nature will rise, per
haps more rapidly. to the same stand
ard but with almost superhuman emo
lions and marvellous demonstrations.

Weed Seeds in Manure.

It is well known that there Is con-
siderable risk of introducing new
weeds by the purchase of manure and
hay and other feeding stuffs. T. L.
Oswald. of the Maryland experiment
station, undertook to obtain more def
mite information on this point, espe-
cialIy as regards dissemination
through manure, by studying the et-
feet of the fermentation of manure
handled in different ways and of pass
ing through the digestive systems OF
animals on the vitality OF various
seeds. including seeds of about fifty
of the worst weeds found in Maryland.
In experiments in which the manure
remained for six months in a barn
yard heap and for short while In
piles, as when shipped in carload lots
from cities, it was found that in the
first case there was no danger, and
in the second case little danger of dis
tributing live weed seeds.

all varieties with fuzz on them are
less liable to rot than the smoother
varieties does not agree with my ex-
perience.
Neither can correct conclusion be
drawn from one or two seasons ex-
Derience, for soil, location, fertilization
and culture also are factors in the rot
problem. Fruit on a rankly-grown
tree is much more subject to rot than
on one more moderately grown. Yet
l think the weather has more to do
with 1t than any one factor. One
year all our early peaches we're quite
subject to rot, while the next year
favorable weather Champions were
practically a total loss, Crosby, stump
and late varieties practically free. I
do not think the matter of fuZz VS..
rot worth considering as a factor in
setting an orchard, except people do
not wish to buy fuzz.
In regard to hardness of bud, a
good frost peach we'll grown will stand
more cold than any other peach tree
we ever had on our grounds. And
varieties of the frost type (if I may
call them SOY, Crosby, Pratt's, Hills
Chill, ETC., are more hardy in bud
than many other varieties, especially
Of the Crawford class, but with the
varieties of the Chinese type, which
bear young and have hardy bud,
what little hardness, If any, the fuzzy
varieties possess above them is much
more than offset by their failings.-

Homemade Ditch Digger.


A complete homemade ditch digger
may be made by following the de-
gcription here given.
The bed piece, five and half inches
long. is cut out OF a hard plank two
and a half inches thick, bolted at each
end and in the middle to prevent split
ting. The rear half is nine inches
wide and the front half six inches
wide.
The diggers are made of steel bars
two and a half inches wide, three
quarters of an inch thick and twenty
four inches long. They are fastened
to the plank by a right angle turn and
bolted. The two rear diggers are held
firmly by rod with nuts inside and
out. the points being spread out so
that the bed piece can easily drop into
the space when the ditch is two feet
or more in depth. The front digger
is the same size, but set in the middle.
All are held firmly by brace rods and
sharpened like the fiat end of pickax.
A wheel Is set under the front end to
steady the movement and is braced
Eagle River review. [volume] (Eagle River, Wis.) 1890-1927, 1909-08-06

backward. An adjustable draw iron
is placed above, through which the
rod may pass at any height suited to
the depth of the ditch.
The handles are also adjustable,
raising them as the digger drops low
eT.
In hard subsoils one will save the
cost of this simple device in digging
seventy-five rods of ditch. In our
hardpan sections of the east, which al
ways need drainage, one does not feel
encouraged to dig bitches with pick
and shovel when more than half the
energy is required to loosen the dirt.
With this machine the toughest sub
soil when dry handles as rapidly as
loose sand

Fru;t Tree Doctor Fake.

The latest fake practiced on farm
ers is done by a man who visits the
place and claims that he has been
sent out by the State to examine fruit
tree diseases. says an exchange The
fellow will go over the orchard and
mark all trees which he claims are af-
fected. Shortly after his visit con-
federate will appear and say that he
has a preparation which will cure the
disease for which the tree Is con-
demned and will contract to inject a
fluid into the roots for a certain price.
Both men are swindlers and should be
run off the place with shotgun. The
only men empowered to inspect orch
ards are the county inspectors, who
are known TO most fruit growers.

Grain or Butter?

Every dairy butter maker whose
product is. known to be of uniform
good quality can now easily contract
all of their surplus at rs cents per
nound the year round. And yet the
quality designated as common coun-
trv butter nearly always sells below
that price and during four or five
summer months goes as low as II
cents. Why-why will its makers be
content to follow methods that spell
positive loss? Who can and will an

there was no Confederate dead the

beauty disappointed; 80 he told her
the Confederate corpse was in the

When the door was opened there lay

cot. The ardent Southern girl rushed
up to him, threw her arms around his
PROSTATE form. and exclaimed, oh,
let me kiss him for his mother" at
the same time pressing her lips to his
brow.
This rather novel procedure awak-
ened the lieutenant, and he took in
the situation at a glance, clasped the
mountain daisy in his arms, and, re-
turning the salute, exclaimed:
Never mind the old lady. Go it
on your own hook, gal. I'm willing"
Before the little Southern lady could
extricate herself from the lieutenant's
embrace she was not only kissed for
her mother but for the whole family.

SHADOW OF GREAT ROCK"
By Rev. Dewitt L. Pelton.

AS the shadow of a great rock in a
weary land.-Isaiah xxi. 2.
The metaphor expressed in these
words was very vivid to the jewellers
in Palestine. The sun during the dry
season blazes down day after day I'M
ceasingly without cloud to veil its
brightness. Vegetation withers and
springs and streams go dry. Travel
ers push along listlessly in the parch-
ing heat. :
Yet, as in all tropical countries, the
heat is not oppressive in the shade,
out of the direct rays of the sun.
Such a shade may be found "in the
shadow of the great rock" which in
mountainous sections juts out from
time to time from the surrounding
barrenness. Such great rocks are al
Eagle River review. [volume] (Eagle River, Wis.) 1890-1927, 1909-08-06

ways most welcome 10 the traveller.
In the long shadows cast by them
there Is refreshment and rest, Often
a spring Of purest water gushes from
the rock. Vegetation fourishes in the
rocks shadow. There Is safety, too,
in the caverns of the rock against
the sudden attacks of marauders. So
David sang, Thou art my rock and
my hiding place" Safety, refresh
ment and inspiration are found "in
the shadow of great rock in a
weary land"
An honorable man in business, in
politics, in social life, is a great rock
in the circle in which he moves, af-
fording refuge, encouragement and In
spiration. A man of honor in bust
bond, who scorns trickery, who gives
good measure, whose service is hon.
est, whose work is up to standard,
Is such a rock.
The influence of his character is
not confined merely to those who come
in contact with him. The shadow
of his influence reaches to multitudes
whom he does not know, who observe
him, take notice of his integrity and
uprightness and know thereby that
honor is not yet dead among men
and are encouraged in their own place
and sphere to initiate his example.
Such, likewise, is the influence of a
noble woman in the social life of the
day, in the midst of the scandal of
the time, surrounded by the malicious
gossip of a community, for gossip is
usually malicious and has little con-
nection with the truth.
Such woman puts the vicious to
silence, the scandal-mongers to shame
and renews our faith in the innate
purity of womanhood. Her influence
reaches far beyond the circle of her
acquaintance. She is as great rock
in weary land"
The great names in history viewed
from this point of view are great
rocks of safety, refreshment and in
spiration in toiling, struggling
world Serene and immovable, like
giant peaks, they live their lives in a
higher atmosphere, in the midst of
petty, self-seeking, mean, ambitious
and cringing selfshness Of their day.
In their presence moral distinctions,
which in the hazy atmosphere in
which most of us live become OBJ
scured and blunted, grow clear and
plain.
The grace Of God can make us rocks
of influence in the midst of circles
In which we live. Consider ST. Peter,
the man of rock" whose name Simon
was changed to Peter (Which in the
Greek means rock). Originally vacil-
1ating, unstable and impulsive in dis
position, Christ saw in him qualities
that were noble and rocklike, and
named him what through His grace
he would become, Peter, the man OF
rock" So with all of us. We can
overcome faults and failings in our
lives; there can be developed in us
new graces and virtues unknown to
us, SO that standing four square and
immovable in the midst Of the un-
toward influences of this world, we,
too, may be rocks of refuge, encour-
agement and inspiration, casting a
shadow of blessed influence upon null
titudes in this weary world.
