Care Of MIX, Cream and Butter.

Care Of Milk, Cream md Butter.
There are two things absolutely es-
sential in the care of milk products
and they are both so important that
It is hard to know which should come
frst-cleanliness and GOODNESS.
Milk that is clearly MIXED Into
sterilized pals and quickly cooled n
kept from the contamination of germs
In the afr will keep sweet for a long
time.
One Of our enterprising dairymen
sent a bottle of milk to Paris at the
time of the exposition. Il made the
journey over and back, a trip OF rs
days, and was still sweet. There was
no preservative used, and the only
precaution was to have the dishes and
bottle perfectly sterile, cooling the
milk at once and keeping It all the
time at a low temperature. This
seems a good while to keep milk
sweet, but 1t shows what cleanliness
and a low temperature can do with
milk.
The best method for keeping milk
is to keep It from the air, as many

The bacteria In warm milk are In
the ideal medium for growth and re-
production. A variety of bacteria re-

Of bacteria may grow in 20 minutes.
As thousands of bacteria can play hide
and seek through a needles eye, one
can appreciate the number contained
In a drop of milk They cannot grow
and multiply If the milk is kept cool.
In making butter n of tie most
common mistakes is the keeping OF
the cream too long; such butter lacks
the good flavor which is the most de-
sirable quality in butter.
Another mistake often made by
butter makers is ov~er-working of but
ter. After churning and the butter Is

butter in good cold water to remove

BABY TWINS

THE SPINE.
DOCTORS CANNOT PART THEM
Examination Convinced Medical Men

New Orleans.-Lucio and Simplicc
Godino are the most remarkable ba
bies In the world. They are twins, not
quite three years old, and are our lit
tie brown brothers Of the Philippine
islands. OF course, there's nothing 30
remarkable about that, but listen!
Nature has so joined the flesh OF
these little fellows that ever the great
est OF human surgeons do not dare
20 part them. Back to back they viii
have to 20 throughout their whole
lives. When one dies the other must
OF necessity follow him into eternity.
Nature has so decreed.
A compact but somewhat elastic
mass OF tissues joins them together
at the base OF the spine. Just like
our everyday" twins, the kind more
or less common throughout he whole
country, Lucio and Simplico play
with jumping jacks, blow horns, hug
their dollies, and pound on toy drums.
They usually play sitting IN the
floor, as under the circumstances they
cannot use chairs. Loosely fitting
dresses make them look much like one
big baby with two heads. But In
doors they discard most Of their cloth
ing, and romp about with much Of
their bodies exposed. And just like
ordinary twins, they quarrel, fight and
20 after each other with little fists
and finger nails. They both speak
English as VOL as American children
OF about their age. Besides that Trey
speak a little Spanish and Germ0n.
But of course they know Filipino best.

Ponhoss.-This dish is much like
the old-fashioned scrapple. Use a
piece Of pot roast ~uncooked, about
two pounds. Grind It fine through the
meat chopper, add two quarts of water
and two cups of corn meal stirred in,
and season with salt and pepper. Cook
slowly two hours. Pour out into a
long tin to cool and use cut In slices
and fried brown, for breakfast.

add the thinly-pared rinds Of an or
ange and lemon. Allow them to re
main for half an hour. Squeeze the

As all over our country, in county
