Precautions In Butter Making.

In making butter the churn
should be revolved at speed that
will produce the best conclusion.
With forty-gallon box or barrel
churn this will be about fifty revolu-
tons minute; with smaller Churn
somewhat more speed is required.
One can soon learn TO tell by the
sound when the cream begins to
break. Then close watching is need
ed, so as not to churn 1t too much.
The churn should be stopped when
the granules OF butter are somewhat
smaller than wheat kernels. To
make the butter float well so that
the buttermilk can be drawn off,
throw In some salt. say one pint to
each twenty gallons in the churn.
Then revolye the churn few times.
Draw off the buttermilk through a
hair sieve, SO as to to catch the gran
ules of butter that escapes from the
churn. Then wash the butter with
pure water at temperature of fifty
degrees or below. This will harden
the granules SO they will not so
quickly mass together. Wash It
twice. each time using ten to twelve
quarts of water to every twenty
pounds of butter and revolve the
churn few times

About Cream Separators.

1t Is just as easy to handle the
separator right as 1t is the plow or
any other implement Prof. Err OF
the Kansas Station lays down these
four important points:
l. The speed of the bowl has an in
fiuence on the cream. A change In
speed from one separation to another
changes the per cent. of fat of the
cream.
2. The temperature of the milk
affects the cream. II the milk Is
warm the cream will be thicker than
IL 1t is cold
8. The amount separated per
hour Is another factor. This is es-
pecially important. For, II the milk
is unevenly fed into the bowl, the
thickness of the cream Is vastly in
fiuenced
4. The amount of water or skim
milk used to flush out the bowl will
affect the quality of the cream.
All these things tend to show that
the separator must be handled with
care and good judgment 1t is diff
cult to observe all the points men
toned, but they are so simple and
apparent that 1t would be very easy
for the needless operator to pass over
them.

degrees and which has not as yet be-
gun to sour, says Field and Farm.
Heat to eighty-six degrees and add
commercial rennet at the rate of
three ounces to 1000 pounds of
milk. Allow to coagulate for thirty
or forty minutes, break the eurd with
a spoon or three-cornered stick un-

100 degrees, stirring almost con-
stantly In the meanwhile and allow
1t to stand at 100 degrees until the
curd becomes firm. A few expert
ments along this line Will show how
firm the curd needs to be. Roughly
1t may be said that 1t will require
about 2b pounds of salt to 1000
pounds of milk. Put the curd In a
mould, square or round as desired,
and apply considerable pressure. The
amount Of pressure required Is
rather indefinite, but should not be
less than 100 pounds to each cheese.
The utensils required are Their

The loss from irregularity is no
where more apparent than In milk
ing. Some dairymen milk little
later on Sunday morning than
through the week. The following
test shows the folly of this practice.
A Denver dairyman delayed milking
his cows on Sunday morning for an
hour and half and the milk yield
showed n large shrinkage that even
ing and for the day. On Monday
morning and on Tuesday morning a
difference was also seen. From fifty
cows the shrinkage on Monday morn
ing was about one hundred pounds,
or an average of two pounds apiece
That dairyman will never let his
cows go over the regular milking
time on Sunday morning again. --

BANK SYNDICATE
NO LONGER EXISTS

Paris, December 12.-The syndicate OF
French banks which was formed last
spring with the expectation of listing l.
O0o, 900 shares of Steel common stock on
the Paris bourse was dissolved few days
ago. after liquidating its holdings. The
syndicate's profits, according to gossip In
financial circles, were large, probably eX-
ceeding those of any financial transact
lions in which the interested banks have
been engaged in recent years.
1t Is explained that the syndicates de-
cision to distribute its holdings was due
to complications which arose In connec-
ton with the proposed listing, especially
the delay in the work of the commission
appointed by NJ. Cailloux, the minister
of finance. to investigate the general sub
iect of the application of existing inan-
cial laws to the introduction of foreign
securities. Herman Harges, Jr., OF Nor
gan. Harges & Co., confirmed the disso-
luton of the syndicate today.
1.-THE proposition to list Steel" he salo'
''emanated from influential French imam
cial circles, who saw in the introduction
OF American securities a prospect for re-
newing the former activity of the Paris
bourse, and at the same time opportunl-
ties for advantageous investment for the
French public. As the entering wedge
they selected Steel common. Steel was
then quoted at "a. 1t is now selling at
81. In the meantime the dividend
doubled.
During this interval transactions In
Steel on the New York exchange were
considerably larger than those In any
other stock. SO that the OBJECT .ne in.er-
sstad narties had in view would appar-
entlv have been more than fulfilled, and
II seems regrettable that the French pup
lie did not have a chance to participate
in the profits of the transactions

.POSTOFF|CE READY
FOR HOLIDAY RUSH
Largest Buslness~ln History Is
Expected
EXTRA CLERKS ARE ADDED
Merchants Sales For December Have
Already Far outstripped Last
Year and Banner Business
Is Anticipated.
EXTRA CLERKS ARE ADDED

Preparations at the postoffice have been
made for the biggest business in the his
tory of the OFFICE 1t now seems evident
that the appointment of the new post
master for Birmingham will be delayed
until after Christmas to give ]. Rivers
Carter with his experience charge of the
Christmas business.
Every department expects to double the
work of last year. All the extra men
possible have been put on. The registry
and money order windows have already
begun a rush business, and during the
next two weeks 1t will be an the local
force can do to issue the necessary
papers.
The inadequacy of the present postof-
fee will be more than demonstrated as
every department Is badly crowded. and
the new force will so thoroughly cram
the lower floor that few of the men will
have elbow room.
The estimates of the Christmas mail
are based on the business of the local
merchants. Sales for the month of De-
cember have so far outstripped the same
period last year that the merchants are
delighted, and declare that this years
trade will be the largest in history.
This year the business men have not
hesitated to bring down the best in every
thing and in great quantities. People
who were unable to spend much for
presents last Christmas during the de-
preston are making their expenditures
correspondingly larger.
Saturday and Saturday nights business
kept every clerk in the city up to his
neck in work. The leading merchants
stated yesterday that II the people will
just get their shopping done early they
will be more than delighted with the re-
suits.
Especially noticeable is the number of
out-of-town people on the streets, Presi-
dent A. H. Ford states that he has never
seen any city SO thoroughly swamped
with out-of-town trade as Birmingham is
becoming, due to the efforts of the Bust
ness Mems league.
So enthusiastically do the business men
indorse this success of the league that
they have nearly all given In their SUBJ
scriptions at larger figure, some doub-
ling them. and 1t Is probable that the
league will have at least $4,000 to spend
in bringing trade to Birmingham during
1910.
