CARING FOR CREAM.

+ + + + !! + + +, \ i. j. + i. + i. i
The influence Of temperature upon
complete removal of butter fat from
skim milk with the hand separator
and the development of favors in
cream are often not well understood
by cow.keepers.
When the milk is drawn from the
animal the temperature is about SO
degrees, but 1t cools very rapidly in
contact with the air and the utensils.
1t is found that when milk is separat.
ed at about 80 degrees to IS degrees
that a less butter fat is left in the
skim milk. The reason for this is
that there is greater difference be
tween the weight of the skim milk
and the butter fat at this temperature
than when it is cooler. This causes
the heavy skim milk to be forced to
ward the outside of the separator and
the cream toward the middle, hence
more complete separation. If the
milk IS allowed to cool to 70 degrees
or lower before separating the weight
Of the butter fat and skim milk are
so near alike that poor separation will
result
Another reason for separating the
milk Immediately after milking is so
that the cream may be cooled The
bacteria or little organisms that pro
duce the bad f1avors in milk and
cream require plenty of food and a
warm place to work. They live upon
the milk sugar that remains in the
cream after separating, so unless the
cream is cooled they 60 right to
work. The bacteria that produce the
bad f1avors in dairy products came
from the dirt of the COW, dust in the
air, or dirty utensils. It is difficult to
prevent few from getting into the
milk, but many are removed by the
separator and those left in the cream
may be kept from developing If the
cream is cooled to so degrees or low

A great deal of the poor cream de-
livered to the creameries could just az

not work A plan for cooling cream
is suggested in Fig. g. An old barrel
or a small vat set between the pump
and the stock watering trough so that
cold water will be kept about the cans
will improve the condition of the
cream wonderfully. AS most of the
we'll water Is close to so degrees in
temperature, however, the cream will
always be somewhat higher than the
layer of watef- just around the can.
70 running the water through the vat
will replace the warm layer of water
next to the can with cold water. This
Is the only way to remove the heat
from the cream, hence the need Of
frequent change of water in tho vat.
Often when farmer has only a
few cows the cream Is delivered only
once or twice week, especially in
busy seasons. That 10 usually the
time when cream needs the most At
tention, SO with the use Of some de-
vice as suggested the quality Of our
cream can be greatly improved.
Another important point In this con-
nection Is the mixing of warm and
cold cream. This never should DO
done. It is sure way to develop
poor flavor, because 1t gives the bnc-
terra in the cold cream an opportu-
nifty to work again and II this Is re-
peated several times bad favors are
sure TO result
In conclusion, I recommend separat-
ing the milk as soon as possible after
milking, cooling the cream with plenty
Of cool fresh water, keeping the cold
and warm cream separate and deliv-
ering to the creamery as often rs
necessary to keep the cream sweet.

MAKING HAY.

The value Of hay depends a good
deal on the stage at which 1t is cut
and how 1t Is cured. Alfalfa should
be cut when it begins to blossom 1t
gets woody very fast from that time.
Cut clover when in full bloom. 1t has
the highest food value at that time
Timothy can be allowed to 80 till
seeds are beginning to form, and
bromus the same. Western rye grass
gets wiry very fast after it blossoms
Drying the Hay. There are two
ways Of getting the moisture out
of the plant after 1t is cut-First,
evaporation through the leaves;
second, evaporation through the
stem. The first is the natural
way and much the fastest way. If the
cut hay is allowed to lay in the sun
for day or more the leaves will dry
up and then the moisture in the stem
can not pass up and through them.
The leaves should be kept from dry.
ing out and to do this the hay should
not be allowed to lay spread out in
the sun for more than an hour or two,
but put into windrows or, better yet,
into cocks. Leave for a couple of
days and the hay will be dry enough
to stack. It will not seem as dry rs
II really Is as the leaves will have
some moisture in them, which Is well,
as 1t keeps them from rotting off.
When hay is dried in the sun the
leaves dry first and In handling rattle
OF, the stems may contain all their
moisture while the leaves are perfect.
~ dry, which is often deceiving, max.
ing one think the hay is drier than it
really 10. ...
Color and Flavor. When hay is left
spread out in the sun it blsaches and
loses its bright green color. At the
same time it is losing its flavor. On
going into NOV of clover or alfalfa
hay that has been cured green a
strong odor will be noticed; this is
valuable, as it havors the hay and
that makes It taste good to tho ami
mails.
Summing Up. Do not lot the hay
plants get too mature before cutting,
and do not cure by letting the cut
hay lay out in the sun. 1t prevents
the moisture getting away properly,
causes bleaching and drives off the
flavor. III

We are going to drag things into the

have the kind of Government we
thought we had.
IF this doesn't work why then we
shall have to try the initiative and

tainly L do. I haven't the slightest
fear of its disturbing our theory Of
