THE ONE WHO STAYS AT HOME


1t Is not common thing to hear mother
or father say that a child has "paid for its
raising" still, there are some who have said Il,
though I feel I am not one Of the sort myself.
Yesterday was Sunday, the day had planned
to so to town to my aunt's for a visit but
account of unfavorable weather / could not
take the long trip. In the afternoon the sun
came out and we drove to q neighbors, one
OF my dearest friends from Atlanta with
her mother-in-aw, and wanted much to

1.-THE Carpet from Bagdad'' is romance
of the east, the Americans who figure
in it are really our sort of folk and
the book is going to be as popular as
anything the author has written
Average Jones. What do you think of
that for a name? Look about you and
think of the names some of your ac-l
quaintances bear. His real title was Mr..
Adrian Van Reypen Egerton, do you
blame his companions for taking his
initials and making an everyday sort?
Humor and mystery play strong parts
in this book, the advertisements are
clever, for they never tell us thing
we expect to know and Samuel Hopkins
Adams is to be Congratulated on his Gre
alton A. Jones, Adviser, certainly can
help you leave dull care at least as
long as it takes to read the book.
Another book that 1 told you about last
years was THE Man Higher Up" 1t was
a clever story Of how a good woman
kept her own husband, a governor, from
selling his birthright for "a mess of
potash" as Uncle Ephriam misquoted,
and set the ideal for others. This story is
a well-told political novel without one
dull line in it and one that leaves a
pleasant memory, so, Of course, another
by the same author is most eagerly well
coined. John Dunmeade accepted a po-
better the condition of the people AS
all honest men soon find out he was ex-
pected to serve a political machine, and
nobody can tell you better than Henry
Russell Miller, in His Rise to Power
how the struggle is accomplished and
John-but / won't say a word more.
Hasn't your heartiest sympathy some
times gone out to some man or woman
that nature cast in a freakish mould?
You wanted to help him or her, you
realized that some one must put up with
the deformity but you didn't have the
nerve. Well, THE Man in the Brown
Derby" is just such an unfortunate and
he took a desperate chance to earn an
honest living deseperation drives many
such-but the story turns out well and
you have passed the time pleasantly,
and, 1 hope learned to remember that
things are not always what the surface
indicates.
Any of these books can be bought at
any first-class bookstore. They are all
from the Bobbs-Merrill Publishing COM
pany, and that means they are attractive
ly bound, good print and nice paper, so
you need not hesitate about them.
Books carefully selected, are treasures
and one must not entertain the idea that
after one reading they are to be thrown
carelessly away. There come times in
every ones life when nothing satisfies
except the world forgetting and by 'the
world forgot" one loses ones self in
book. The appetite loathes solid sub
stantials at times, so does the mind and
the sooner the tension is relaxed the
sooner the palate becomes normal Or
such has been the experience of the one

Baking Helps
Learn to Regulate the Heat of
Your Oven

ByM,s. Janet Mckenzie Hill, Editor Of
the Boston Cooking School Magazine
There is just one way to make
your cakes rise high and keep an
even surface. Have your oven
moderate at first, until the cake is
fully rizen; then increase the heat,
so as to brown it over quickly.
Extreme heat stiffens the dough.
If you stiffen the outside of the
cake before the rising is complete,
you stop the rising process. Then
the leave1ling gas, forming inside,
will bulge up the center, where
the dough is still soft, and spoil
the shape Of the cake. 80
NorE-Biscuits or other pastries
made from stiff dough, that are cut into
shapes for the oven, bake in a hot oven.
This is because the cut surfaces of the
dough do not scar over, but rather
leave the pores open, allowing the
leavening gas to escape and the heat to
penetrate readily. Small ovens cool
quickly; therefore they should be made
several degrees hotter than larger
oven, and the less the door is opened
the better. Do not attempt to bake
bread and pastry together. Bread re-
quires prolonged, moderate baking
pastry the reverse.
Have strong underheat for baking
powder preparations, especially pastry.
These are only a few of the many
baking helps found in the K c Cooks
Book-a copy of which may be secured
by sending the colored certificate taken
from 25-cent can of K c Baking Pow
der to the JAoUEs MFG. Co., Chicago.

Whirling the bottIe-When the mix
ing is complete the test bottles are
placed in the tester in such position
that the machine will be balanced.
Use only an even number of bottles,
and if all pockets are not filled, have
the empty pockets opposite. Whirl
for five minutes at proper speed. This
speed is indicated on the machine.
Then stop and add clean hot water
until the liquid in test bottle is up to
the base of the neck. Whirl again for
two minutes at same speed; then
stop and add clean hot water until fat
column is in the granulated portion
of the neck. Whirl again one minute.
The reading should be done while fat
is hot, and in cold room the high er
temperature can be maintained by
putting hot water in the pockets or
cups while whirling. Fat should be at
about 40 degrees F. to make best
reading.
Reading the test-The test is read
from the extreme upper to the ex-
treme lower portion of the fat column.
This can be done by counting the
divisions occupied by the fat or by
the use of pair of divides. The
scale generally divided into 10 large
divisions, each one representing one
percent. These are again divided in
to five divisions, each one represent
ing two tenths percent, so that half
space represents one tenth percent.

Cleaning the bottles-This is by no
means the least important. The
bottles should be emptied while hot,
and should be shaken we'll to loosen
the white sediment in the bottom.
Wash with hot water that contains
some good washing powder, using the
brush freely in the neck; then rinse

ed are ambiguous. Please tell me the
best way to test milk and cream. j..
G. FerndaIe, Wash.
Answer: | shall discuss this ques-
ton at length, since l believe that
many dairy farmers would gladly test
their COWS, it they know what COM
paratively easy task it is.
Getting the sample-The first essen
tial is to get fair sample, and in
order to do this, the bucket or can
full of milk or cream must be poured
from one vessel to another at least
three times, then taking sample with
dipper. In the case of sampling
newly drawn milk it is only necessary
to stir we'll before using the dipper.
Measuring correct amount-The
sample to be tested should be between
60 and 70 degrees F. Groom tempera
ture.) Mix by pouring from one
vessel to another. Place the pipette
in the milk at once, and draw on it
by placing upper end in your mouth,
until the milk is above the mark on
the stem; then quickly place your
dry index finger over the upper end
and let the milk flow out drop by
drop until the lower portion of the
curved line in the stem is even with
the mark. You then will have II. Gee
and this is transferred to test bottle
| by holding the latter in slanting
position so that the air can escape as
the milk goes in. Blow through
pipette lightly to free small drop OF
milk has collected Be sure that no
milk is lost in the transfer.
Adding acid-The acid is concentrat-
ed sulphuric acid and can be bought
of creamery supply house, or at
dug store. Be sure you get acid of
the right strength, with a specific
gravity of 1.82 to 1.84. When added
to the milk it should be about the
same temperature as the milk. Meas
ure out II. sec in the acid measure,
which comes with the outfit, and add
| this to the milk in the test bottle,
revolving the latter slowly SO that any
milk adhering to side of tube will be
washed down. The bottle should be
held in slanting position while add
ing the acid. When all the acid is
added, mix by giving bottle rotary
motion, but be careful to not allow
any of the curd PARTICLES to get into
the neck. since they may be forced
out by tho gases that are formed, and
thereby spoil the test. Do not shake
vigorously. but still the mixing should
be done as quickly as possible, SO that
no particle of fat will be charred by
being in contact with the acid longer
than another. The purpose of the
acid is to dissolve everything in the
milk except the fat. IL acid is added
in excess the fat will be charred and
| will not give a true reading. The
| same is true il acid and milk are too
warm. They should be about 65 de-
grees f. If on the other hand the
temperature is low, or not enough
acid has been added, the material
other than fat will not have been
dissolved, The mixture should turn
black soon after mixing with the acid.

TROUBLE WITH CREAM
Question: Can you tell me if | am
at fault in the feeding of a COW who's
cream has not churned for a month?
Have been milking her nine months
and she will be fresh about April 18th.
Am feeding her six pounds of shorts
and 80 pounds of mixed oat and alfalfa
hay daily. o. A. NJ, Marysville,
Wash.
Answer: In your case it is not the
feed entirely tina is the cause. Dry
feed will, of course, make hard fat
that will not gather readily. The
chief difficulty, however, is that the
COW is far advanced in lactation SO
that the composition of the fat is
changed, there being a larger precent-
age of hard fats present, making the
cream almost unchurnable. The COM
bined influence of dry feeds, advanced
lactation, and low temperature, makes
cream that will not churn.
