The Quality of Butter.

The quality of butter depends to a
great degree upon the food and drink
of the COW. She should have clean,
pure water and wholesome food. Much
care should be taken in the selection
OF the ration. The individual cow has
much to do in this regard. But with
respect to the part that is played in
handling the product of the COW too
much carelessness is evident in the
processes of butter-making. After
churning is finished the butter and
milk mixture should remain quiet for
about ten minutes In order to let the
butter come to the surface A cup of
cold water will hasten the process.
An old recipe says:
The butter should be carefully
SKINNED off into a wooden bowl half
full of water. The water should be
repeatedly changed until il shows no
indication of milkiness. 1t Is impor-
tant that the butter should not be
pressed or worked during the process
Of removing the milk from the butter

Their General

Nothing could better show the love
of the Confederate army for their COM
mander, General Lee, than the incident
told by Prof. w. W. Smith in South
ern Historical Papers" At one time,
during the Battle of Spottsylvania. the
Army of Virginia was severed. and
ruin seemed inevitable. A quick order
was given, summoning two brigades
from the trenches. a feeble force
against the thiclx-massed foe.
As the regiments stood, ready to at
tack, an officer on an iron-gray horse
was seen TO ride TO the front. He ut
tered no word. but pointing at the foe,
advanced to lead the charge. AS he
did so. he turned his face toward the
army. The sight of that face, full of
calm resolve, sent thrill of dismay
through each heart. for there, amid the
already whistling bullets. rode the idol

The Milk IuduSfrx.

The milk producers of Northern ILL
nois have decided to resurrect a DOR
mant industry in their fight against
the milk trust. They are considering
plants to re-establish their own
creameries which were sold to the Bor
den Company ten or fifteen years ago.
These will act as an outlet for their
product if the association does not sue
coed in establishing Its own 6istribut-
Ing depot in Chicago, which is looked
upon as more than a possibility. Fiji
teen years ago the Northern Illinois
section was dotted with creameries
established by the farmers, many of
them being run on the cooperative
plan. This was when the Borden
Company was beginning to branch out.
Offers Of purchase were made TO IA
cilitate trading with the farmers and
