THE SEPARATOR.
Lie Of the Machine Depends Upon the
Care Il Receives.

By EDWARD II. WEBSTER.
If the separator shakes while 1t Is
skimming there will be some interm.x-
ing of the milk and cream, and the re-
suit IS poor work. The operator should
aim to secure two things II be expects
his machine to do good work-l) a
perfectly true motion Of bowl, and, t2)
q sufficient speed (Which must he uni
form to create force for separating.
In order to have the perfect motion
Of the bowl the machine u be set
level and be kept clean and well oiled.
The oil should be thin, or light, SO that
1t will not gum the wearing parts. a
heavy oil will make the machine u
hard and will gum quickly Oh small
high speed bearings. All the bearings
If the machine should be frequently
flushed with coal Oil. 1t Is well to make
Z III about once in two or three
weeks, using coal Oil on all the bear
ings. This keeps the parts free from
gum and washes out grit or sand that
may have blown into them.
1t Is an excellent plan to have a cover
OF closely woven cloth or oilcloth that
can be kept owe the machine while It
IS not In operation. This will keep out
dust and sand and will add materially
to the lasting powers Of the machine,
The separator should be set up on a
good solid floor, SO that 1t viii not
move or sway as the operator turns the
crank.
The life Of a separator depends main
~ upon the factors just pointed out.
A machine that is allowed to run gum
my or dirty may wear out IN a year.
IL kept free from dirt and well oiled It
will last q number OF years.

q black spot or spots upon them. The
standard OF excellence adopted by the
Animal Pig Breeders Association Of
Great Britain now gives black spots
as an objection, hut NO indication Of
impurity Of blood. The American
Tamworth association also adopts the
same ruling. Black spots are an OBJ
lection. but no indication Of impurity
Of blood or 40 tar to registration. 1t
r. considered that the animal OF solid
red is Il better looking animal and
more to be desired from a fancy stand
point than one with spots. Some OF
the very best Tamworths of late years
have had small black spots upon them,
but they are fast being bred off. and
a great many DO not wish any tenden-
cy to anything but solid color III red.

Dipping Sheep For Scab.

In regard to the dipping Of sheep
for scab the South Dakota station
gives the following Jules Dipping
should preferably be performed short
" after shearing. dipping all the sheep
at one time. Select a lime and sul-
phur, tobacco and sulphur or an ap
proved coal tar dip. Keep the tempera-
ture Of the vat at from 1O3 to 1O5 de-
grees. Hold each sheep IN the dip two
minutes by the watch. Guessing at the
time Is not reliable. Completely I'm
merse the head once. Ten days later
dip the entire flock a second time. Aft.
er the second dipping place the flock
on a portion of the farm from which
they have been excluded for at least
four weeks previously.

Market Hogs

What kind Of hog will bring the
breed will make the best market hog =:
These are questions hard to answer
definitely. Markets vary as to the
class Of hogs that will sell at the top.
When lard is at a premium the hog
that yields a large amount of lard Is
the market topper, and that means
the heavy, thick. fat hog. When lard
is below other products this kind OF
hog sells for less han the light weight
which will make handy pork loins and
good hams without too much fat on
them. Taking n year with another
In eastern markets, the hog OF $50 TO
200 pounds will hit the top oftener
than any other weight. In western
markets hogs of around $50 pounds
will probably average best. Some
times lighter or heavier hogs will out
sell these grades, according to the
fluctuations in price of the product.
In summer hog prices cover the widest
range because there Is the greatest
difference In the yield Of product at
this season. In the winter all hogs are
corn fed and yield more uniform guam
titles Of product. In summer many
are grassers that make low yields and
OF inferior quality to corn fed hogs.
A 200 pound hog that dresses 80 per
cent yields 16O pounds, II that dress
es IS per cent yields $50 pounds. and
one that dresses 20 per cent yields
only 40 pounds, an enormous differ
ence in a carload OF hogs, which the
buyer makes allowance for In buying
them OF foot. AS a rule, OF late the
best hogs have been the cheapest on
the hooks at the top Of the market be-
cause they have yielded 80 much more
product than the others, which looked
cheaper to the inexperienced observer.
As to the breed that killers like best,
probably more would answer Berk-
shire than any other breed. But hogs
are what killers want, and the kind
they want will top the market, wheth.
