| day, Friday, and market day, Satur-
, day 1t is not essential to follow this
rule but in order to secure a uniform
grade of butter it is necessary to
churn at least every third or fourth
! uay.
additional lots of fresh, warm cream,
will sour quickly, and during the col
lection period it should be kept as
cold as possible with we'll water. Each
new lot of cream should be cooled to
that temperature before it is mixed
with that previously saved.
The following suggestion has been
tried and found to work well: For
holding the cream have regular can
fitted with a cover through which the
| handle of the stirrer may project.
The second can should be smaller,
but of sufficient size to hold all the
cream of one Swimming. Cool the
cream in this can before pouring it
into the large can, and it is "a good
plan to leave the cream in this until
the following milking time; but the
cooling should begin as soon as the
separating is completed, in order to
check souring.
Stir the cream occasionally while it
is cooling. Twenty-four hours before
the time for churning. the cream can
should be placed where the cream will
warm to from 60 to IS degrees, in
summer, and 70 to IS degrees in win
ter.
Add starter, using from one to two
and a half gallons for every ten gal
ions of cream.
In case the cream has not been kept
cold enough to remain sweet, it will
not be necessary to warm it for sour
| ing.
After the starter is added the cream
! should be thoroughly stirred every
hour until it has taken on sufficient
amount of acid for churning. This
can be determined by an acid test or
by the general appearance. 1t should
be smooth and glossy with clean
acid flavor and aroma. Under favor
able conditions, this development of
! acid is brought about in from six to
| eight hours.
The cream should then be cooled to
| churning temperature and held for at
| least two hours in winter and from
| four to six hours in summer; other
| wise. the butter will come soft and
mushy with correspondingly in
| creased loss in the buttermilk.
The following method has been used
with success: At the beginning of col
lecting period or when the first amount
! of cream is placed in the cream can. a
small amount of starter is added to it,
usually one fourth Of the amount of
cream; in this case the development
of acid is going on slowly during the
| time the cream is collected.

THE HOME SUPPLY OF ICE.
Much NAV be added to the keeping


quality as well as to the enjoyment Of
the food supplies for the home if a
supply of ice is available during the
warmer months of the year. In cities
and towns of any size the consumer
has his wants in this line met by put
ting up the ice card. With country
dwelers the matter is not so simple.
For those who wish to lay by supply
of ice for next summer a few sugges-
lions may be helpful. An outbuilding
of about the size required for the nee
essary supply may be utilized. This
should be so situated that there will
be good drainage from a point below
the lowest tier of cakes. space of
foot or fourteen inches should be left
between the body of ice and the walls
of the Enclosure. The cakes should be
packed In regular fashion for economy
of room, with enough space between
them so as to give free drainage to
the bottom. The sawdust or other ma
teriai used in packing should be pour
ed In between the ice and the walls as
the pile Increases in height, but should
not be packed down. When the last
tier of ice has been laid ten inch
layer of the packing material should
be placed over the whole body of ice.
The air chamber above the ice should
be kept well ventilated during warm
weather. \ supply of ice is often kept
by cruder methods than those above
outlined. but not with SO satisfactory
results

RssT WAY 10 FEED CORN.

Since corn is the chief article of diet
In those states where hog raising is
carried on extensively the question of
the feeding of il in the most econom-
zeal form is a live one for every feeder.
Realizing this fact and with view to
securing data that would be of practi-
cal value for the feeder, the directors
of the Iowa experiment station at
Ames have been conducting exhaustive
feeding experiments for the past three
years with a view to finding out in
what form corn should be fed to give
the largest as well as the most eco
nomical gains. A bulletin recently
published by the station gives the re-
suits of these feeding Investigations
A gist of the findings should be Of
practical aid TO every hog raiser who
uses corn as a part of the feeding ra-
ton. Six forms of corn We're used-dry
ear corn. soaked shell corn, dry corn
meal. soaked cornmeal. dry corn and
cob meal anu soaked corn and cob
meal 1t was found that Smelling cost
] cent per bushei, Smelling and grind
ing cents and grinding corn aud cob
meal q cents.
In the tests made in 1907 100 pounds
Of dry ear corn made as much pork as
1f2 pounds of shelled corn soaked
twenty-four hours or 122 pounds of
cornmeal soaked twelve hours. In the
1905 tests shelIed corn soaked twelve
hours gave slightly the fastest gains.
1T was found that. whether dry or
soaked. bushel of corn ground with
out the cob made more pork than
bushel of corn ground with the cob,
while a bushel of ear corn made as
much gain as one and one-third BUSH
els ground into corn and cob meal at
cost of cents per bushel. Other IN
teresting features of the experiments
might be given, but the practical les
son of the tests. according to the ex-
perimenters, is summarized In the
statement that up to 200 pounds In
weight the fastest as well as the most
economical gains may be secured by
feeding dry ear corn. while for hogs
above this weight the best results are
had with shelled corn soaked twelve
hours. These results will be gratifying
to the average feeder. for the method
of feeding which gives best results is
that in which there is a minimum out
lay of time and expense III the prepar-
ing and feeding of the ration.

There is no fruit tree that will stand
or should receive more heavy pruning
than the peach. The pruning done
the first spring following the setting of
the trees should include the taking cut
of all limbs except four or tive, which
should be left to form the frame of the
young tree. aud these should be cut
back to about eighteen inches. As the
tree gets older the top should be kept
we'll thinned and the new growth cut
back TO give sufficient sturdiness to the
branches. To properly ripen. peaches
should be exposed to the sunshine. aud
