ties, and it must be remembered that
the sooner after separation it is cooled
the better it will keep and the better
will be the butter therefrom.
Where ice is available and refrig
orator at hand there ought to be no
trouble in keeping cream sweet for a
long time. A mistake is made, how
ever, in putting warm cream from the
separator directly into the ice box.
1t is bad practice for two reasons:
In the first place it warns up the ice
box and wastes the ice when cold
water might have been used for the
first chilling and second, the cooling
by setting in cold water even If it is
not stirred is far quicker than by
putting in the ice box that is possibly
ten degrees colder. The reason for
this is that the heat transmission
from the cream to the ice through the
air in the ice box, is much slower

Caring for Milk and Cream

The first requisite in the handling
of dairy products for public consump-
ton is that all conditions under which
they are produced should be perfect
ly sanitary. We have learned that
whenever anything spoils or decays,
germs of some sort are present and if
we could keep these out absolutely,
all products would keep sweet and
wholesome Indefinitely.
1t is essential then that we do all
we can to keep the germs or bacteria
from getting into the milk, so as to
have better products; but no matter
what precautions are taken as regards
method of production we can never
hope to get perfectly sterile milk and
cream, at least for commercial pur-

of the latter may be found in butter
that has been kept at 80 degrees F. or
below for a long period of time.
Some decomposition. takes place be-
cause the butter is never as good when
it comes out as when it was put in
the chilling room. The salt in the
butter with the water makes brine
that does not CONCEAL at the temper
ature OF the room, and there is there
for place for the germs to live. In
most places, however, such germs are
very rare although they may be
numerous elsewhere.
A good illustration of the growth
of germs at low temperature is in the
ones that cause ptomaine poison. We
frequently hear of persons becoming
poisoned from eating certain meats or
ice cream, or from canned fruit and
fish. In the latter case it is probably
not ptomaine, while the former has
definitely been traced to that cause.
When ptomaine is present in a food
product, that product has been kept
cool but not frozen hard. AS long as
the substance is not CONCEALED there is
a chance for the germ to develop. In
ice cream the poison is generally not
formed after the first freezing unless
it was allowed to melt and then was
refrozen. 1t is more likely to be
formed in the cream which had been
chilled and kept above freezing point

soon cause the milk to decompose or
sour.
1t has been proved by experiments
that single bacterium in milk at a
temperature of 80 degrees +. will de-
velop into only five in "a hours, but
if left at 90 degrees it will develop 750
fold. That shows the necessity of
cooling the milk as soon as possible
after drawing, if it is to have good
keeping qualities.
The germs that are commonly found
in milk do grow we'll at so degrees F.
and at about 80 degrees f. nearly all
growth ceases. Still even at lower
temperatures there are certain germs
that will grow so long as there is
liquid medium for them. An example

poses, for few germs are sure to get
in.
Different germs have different opti-
mum temperatures; that is, the tenn
perature at which they thrive best
varies with the species. We find,
however, that the normal temperature
of the cow about SO degrees F. is a
very good tempera ture for the develop
ment of nearly all germs, and as a
consequence any germs that are pres
ent in the milk Immediately after it
is drawn will multiply rapidly and

for a long period.

IOf long periou.
We need not fear such germs under
ordinary conditions because they are
very rare, and we should not be afraid
of chilling products in order to keep
them. We should, however, have a
fear of germs in general and make it
uncomfortable for them to live and
develop in the milk or its products.
After milk is drawn then it should
be cooled at once. the sooner the
better as has been pointed out This
refers to the production of milk for
direct consumption. Ii, however, the
product sold is cream, the milk should
of course be left warm SO as to facili-
tate separation, but the cream there
from should be cooled at once to as
low temperature as possible.
1t would seem that it is not neces-
sary to take these precautions in pro-
ducing cream for buttermaking, and
indeed that is true if the cream was
to be made into butter at once, but
when 1T is kept from three days to a
week or over before it is delivered to
the creamery, it is important to check
all fermen tation, good and bad, and
allow the buttermaker to have control
of the souring process. He can make
a more uniform grade of butter as we'll
as a much better favored product.
1t is not we'll to allow the cream
from the separator to cool of it's own
accord, because in the time that it
takes, all germs have developed ma
terially and the chances are that bad
ones have developed as we'll as good
ones.
TEe simplest kind of a device is
generally the best for cream coolers.
1t must be something that can be
easily kept clean. For milk there
must be large cooling surface and
an abundance of cold running water
Many diaries are using the style
which has a compartment for ice
water; a piece of ice is put in the
water on the inside and the milk is
run over the surface on the outside.
Such cooler is cheap and is excellent
if properly handled. But if the ice
and water is not stirred or kept in
circulation while the milk is being
run over it, there will be layer of
warm water next to the tin and the
milk will be COG led only slightly if at
all. A constant stirring is necessary
it reasonable results are to be obtain
ed
Any of the coolers of the corrugat-
ed copper or pipe style that provide
for the cold water coming In at the
bottom and going out at the top with
the milk running over the outside in
thin sheet are very good, and their
efficiency is dependent upon the tenn
perature and amount of the water
and the rate of flow of the milk.
Very good results can be obtained
by setting the milk cans directly into
tubs or sinks of running water and
stirring constantly. This method is
nearly always to be preferred in cool
ing cream, especially in small quaint

TO PROTECT WATER SUPPLY
Secretary Wilson to Assist Cities in
Providing Pure Water.

Washington, D. c., Nov. is, 1911.
Secretary Wilson has decided that
the interests of cities and towns which
obtain their water from streams hav-
ing their watersheds within national
forests call for special measures of
protection, and he has therefore de-
veloped a plan of cooperation for the
department of Agriculture with those
communities which are alive to the
importance of keeping their water
supply pure.
There are many western towns and
cities, some of them OF large size,
which derive their water from drain
age basins lying inside the national
forests. One of the recognized objects
OF forestry is to insure the perman-
ence and protect the purity of muni-
cipal water supplies. AS the forests
are maintained for the benefit of the
public, Secretary Wilson considers it
the duty of his department to do all
that it can, both to prevent the pollu-
ton of such supplies and to create or
maintain conditions most favorable to
a constant flow of clear water.
Stock raising and occupancy of the
land for the various kinds of use
which are ordinarily encouraged on
the national forests may be highly un-
desirable if allowed on drainage bas-
ms which are the sources of drinking
water. There is also to be considered
the injury which may be done if the
water is silt-laden BY protecting and
improving the forest cover and by en-
forcing special regulations to mini
mize erosion and to provide for the
maintenance of sanitary conditions,
the government will try to safeguard
the interests of the public
A form of agreement has been
drawn up. providing that, when CO.
operation is entered into between the
secretary of agriculture and any city
desiring conservation and protection
of it's water supply, the secretary will
not permit the use of the land in
volved without approval by the town
or city except for the protection and
care of the forests, marking, cutting
and disposing of timber which the for
est officers find may be removed with
out injury to the water supply of the
city, or for the building of roads,
trails telephone lines, etc, not incon-
sistent with the objects of the agree
ment, or for rights of way acquired
under acts of congress. The secretary
also agrees to require all persons en-
| ployed on or occupying any of the
land both to comply with the regula-
lions governing national forests and to
observe all sanitary regulations which
the city may propose and the secre-
tary approve.
The agreement provides for the eX-
tension and Improvement of the for
ests on the part of the government by
seeding and planting and the best me-
thods of silviculture and forest man
| agement, so far as the funds available
well permit. The city on its side is
expected to assist in the work by pay
| ing the salaries of the additional
g11""''~ necessary to carry out the
a~ree~ ent, and in case extensive fcr-
est operations are Immediately desir-
ed by the city, it would bear the major
part Of the cost entailed by this work.

COMMUNICATION.

Editor Times.
Dear Sir: Permit me to correct a
statement which recently appeared in
the Twin Falls Chronicle, wherein the
editor of that paper makes the claim
that the recent elections in New Jer-
sey and Ohio have proved decided
victory for Governor Harmon and a
decided rebuke to Governor Wilson CT
New Jersey.
1t is true that the Republicans will
have small majority in the next New
Jersey legislature. New Jersey is con-
trolled, or rather has been controlled
until Governor Wilson took the helm,
by the trusts and machine politicians.
He has proved himself a practical re-
former, as the new statutes in New
Jersey will bear witness. In addition
to his excellent record as governor he
is looked upon by the progressive ele-
ment of democracy as the logical can
didate for president. The interests"
do not want Wilson. He is too indie
pendent, too sincere, too able. They
,nerorore poured hundreds of thou
sands of dollars into the New Jersey
campaign for the purpose of rebuk-
| ing Wilson and destroying his chances
| for the presidency. In Essex county,
| the worst governed in that state, the
corporations and the machine nomin-
ated twelve anti-Wilson Democrats for
the legislature. They were all defeat
| ed and their defeat lost the Democrats
their majority. In the loss CT the leg
islature Wilson may therefore claim a
personal victory for himself.
In Ohio, however, the Democrats
were successful in electing in the
three largest cities in the state. Har-
mon men claim this a victory for the
Ohio governor. Such is not the case.
i 1t was a singing rebuke. The facts
in the matter are that Brand Whitlock,
Newton Baker, and Henry Hunt, the
newly elected mayors are all known to
| be strong anti-Harmon men.

BURGLARY AT PICABO.

COl:eIts OF Safe Taken.

Sheriff Hart and Deputy Corners left
early yesterday morning for Picabo,
having been summoned to that place
to investigate a burglary at the Kill
patrick store the night before.
The burglars entered the store
through the cellar. where they partook
of q lunch of eatables taken from the
grocery stock. After supplying the in
ner man they proceeded to help them
selves to whatever the safe contained,
which was opened by the use of the
combination which would lead to the
belief that the job was done by some
one who was acquainted with the COM
bination or by experts in that line of
business.
They secured from the safe 500 in
cash, 5000 worth of postage stamps
and about $3.50 in money orders. Sew
eral guns were also taken from the
stock in the store.
The officers have not returned and
1t is not known at this time whether

; "a Fighting Chance" to be pre-
sented by the stock company at the
Bijou theatre this week, is a home
drama of life in the South during
the period OF 1852 to 1864. The ac-
ton takes place just outside the city
of Richmond, Va. While there Is a
suggestion of melodrama about the
play, 1t is the m%elodrama that is
necessary to make a narrative that
is interesting and Instructive.
The play holds up the honor OF
the North and the South. 1t has
what all lovers Iowa true love
story. 1t shows three young men
just budding Into manhood. two
from the blue grass country. the
other from the North. Rose, of UNI
known parentage, is loved by the
n from the North. The n from
the South also is in love with Rose,
and to force her to accept him gets
her father, who Is In his power, to
force Rose to steal important docu-
ments from the others home. War
-declared. The one from tAe North
is captured and denounced as q spy.
Through the loyalty of Rose he is
saved from a. disgraceful death.
From this or the lines and action
are replete with clean and whole
construction. While the play
treats with military in a small por-
ton, 1T Is on home life that 1t is
founded.
