New York, Jan. 30.-A clear ex-

specific causes Of apprehension. A
fear Is expressed that the investlga-

BurTERMAkINe ADVICE.
Practical Suggestion from Woman
Who Is Experienced Hand.


Mrs. A. Joseph, a woman farmer,
has written very interesting article
on batter making. She writes as fol-
lows:
When butter is high. why should we
buy it when it can be made at home
with very little expense and trouble?
With two good cows one can have
all the milk and cream needed for
the table and cooking and at the same
time make enough butter for family
of six, seven or eight.
Never keep COW that gives less than
200 pounds of butter fat per year, as
1t will take about $50 pounds of but
ter fat to keep her, and you want
some profit.
Alfalfa, meal and middlings are by
far the best and cheapest food, and
Of course she should have hay food
also. 1t is well to give her some green
feed, too, such as grass and carrots,
and il near cider mill and the pulp
ian be procured it will make excellent
iood
Do not keep a COW in dark barn
Dr. shed that does not admit the sun
light. Put windows in it that will
let In the light and sunshine to every
corner. This will help keep off the
Tread tuberculosis to which many
COWS are subject.
The milk should be kept clean, and
after straining (if one has no sep
arator) should be poured into ordi-
GARY milk cans and kept in cool,
dry place.
Some claim that If the milk is
warmed slightly before straining the
cream will rise more quickly. 1t is
also remarkable that if the pantry,
milk house or wherever the milk is
kept is light the cream viii rise better
and be richer color.
When the cream becomes thick
enough skim it carefully and see that
no milk is mixed with it. Set it in
large crock to sour. When it becomes
thick and sour it is ready for churn-
ing. A little over two quarts of cream
will make two pounds Of butter.
If one has no churn a very inex-
pensive way of churning is the fol.
loving:
Place the cream in a cool milk
crock Then with very heavy wire
eggbeater beat the cream with long,
quick strokes-just the stroke you
would use in beating eggs.
Do not stir around, as It spells the
grain of the butter. Continue beat
Ing until the cream becomes thick and
forms into little grains.
Remove the beaten and stir the
cream with small-sized butter pad
die until all the grains are gathered
together.
Save the buttermilk, as it can be
used for a good many things if one
has no pigs to enjoy it,
Drain the butter well; press in sew
eral places with the paddle and place
under faucet Of cold water, or pour
the water over it. repeating several
times and taking care to- drain as
much of the milky water out as pos
sible each time.
When it is thoroughly drained wash
the paddles In cold water and sprinkle
with salt. The butter should also be
sprinkled with salt, about table
spoonful to each pound q butter.
Mix the salt in thoroughly with the
paddles, place it on cool plate %
mold into whatever shape is desired.
Wooden butter molds are good and
small stamps can be bought for a
small sum, but one can form the but

UNWRITTEN LAW TO
Be MURDER DEFENSE
Girls Attitude Has Changed Toward
Brother Since Preliminary and She
Will Give Testimony in His
Behalf

With the unwritten law as his de-
Tense, William Mitchell, slayer of Cecil
c. Thayer, will appear for trial on a
charge of murder in Judge Willis de-
partment of the superior court in the
hall of justice Monday. Owing to the
circumstances surrounding the killing
of Thayer the case is expected to rival
in interest any similar proceedings in
the superior courts for several years.
Attorney Earl Rogers, in whose
hands MitchelPS case was placed I'M
mediately after his arrest, will not be
present owing to his duties at the Cal
houh trial in San Francisco, and
Mitchell's defense will be conducted by
Mr. Rogers law partner, w. H. Dehm
assisted by Attorneys Grove Walter and
Frank Pratt. The prosecution will be
in charge of G. Ray Horton, deputy dis
trict attorney.
The trial is expected to last five days,
and of the twenty-four witnesses al
ready subpoenaed in Mitchell's behalf
his sister, Ethel Mitchell, the 16-year-
old girl, in the defense of whose honor
he committed the crime, will prove his
strongest support. The girl is at the
detention home, where she has been
kept since the New Years night
tragedy. The attitude she assumed at
the preliminary examination of her
brother in police court has changed,
and instead of condemning him for his
act it is believed her testimony will
show that Thayer's actions were of
such a character as to make her
brothers crime in a degree excusable.

COMPELLED AT POINT OF
REVOLVER TO OPEN SAFE
Two Burglars Arouse Japanese Mer-
chant and Rob Him of Three
Hundred Dollars

Two burglars entered the room where
Z. Ishmitsu, proprietor of wholesale
liquor store at 3OS North Alameda
street, was sleeping at 4:30 o'clock yes
terday morning.; awakened him by
poking him in the ribs with their re-
Volvers, then compelled him to open the
safe, which is several feet from where
Ishmitsu sleeps, ana obtained $500.
After warning the victim not to make
an cutlery, under penalty of being shot,
the men left the building and hurried
away in the darkness.
This is the second robbery of a SINH
lar character that has been committed
within the last few weeks, and the
police say the robbery of Ishmitsu was
committed by the same men who COM
mitted the robbery short time ago
when a Japanese merchant was reused
from his slumbers and ordered to open
It is also believed that they are the
same men who recently robbed the
homes of two Japanese, after making
the occupants cover their heads with
the bed clothes while the houses were
being ransacked.
