PRODUCING FIRM BODY IN BUTTER

PRODUCING FIRM BODY IN BUTTER
With the soft butter fat which j.
produced At this season of the year
and the warm weather coming ON
ii i rather difficult to secure a firm
bodied butter. The SoftneSs of the
fat causes the butter To come i'm Il
soft condition. When butter l.,
worked in this condition it becomes
sticky and greasy. When placed
on the table this kind of butter does
not tempt the appetite a. does but
ter which has firm, waXy body.
This softness of the butter fat i
due to high per cent of olien in
the fat. and not to the presence of
moisture as some might suppose
Olien has Il very low melting point
A. compared with the other glycer-
ids of fat found in butter fat. The
per cent of olien varies with the in
dividuality and breed of the COWS
and the feed they receive. The
time of the lactation period also
affects the per cent of olein. When
the COWS 60 ON grass in the spring
there is a high per cent of olein,
causing the butter fat to become
soft ut a comparatively low tenn
perature.
The question is sometimes asked
as to what temperature cream
should be churned at in order t.
obtain firm body in the butter.
This question can not he answered
directly as the hardness or the soft
ness of the fat varies with the above
mentioned factors. An accurate
thermometer should he used and Il
trial churning should guide the but
termaker for the succeeding churn-
ing. If the butter comes soft a
lower churning temperature should |
he employed the next time. \
good rule to follow is to bring the
temperature of the cream down 80
as to have the butter come in gran
ules the size of wheat kernels. When |
it is soft it comes in a tlaky instead |
of granular condition.
In order to secure fine, waxy
body in the butter, great care should /
he taken not to over-churn. This /
also applies to the washing of the
butter after the buttermilk has been
removed. Excessive churning,
either in the buttermilk or in the
wash water, is liable to produce a
weak bodied butter. The glass in /
the churn should be watched care
fully and a. soon as the granues
have reached the desired size the |
buttermilk should be drawn off. In
washing the butter, six or eight rev.
olutions of the churn are sufficient.
The butter should not be allowed |
to become soft during the washing
and working process if the best body
is desired. The wash water should
be the same temperature or a few
degrees lower than the cream before
churning. The butter should be
worked in a cool room and should
be worked only enough to dissolve
and distribute the salt. 1t should
not be allowed to become soft after
1t has. been made so as to go on the
market or to the consumer in firm
condition.

"Mutt and Jeff

For variety and dissimilitude of stu
ations. surprises, novelties, scenic in
vestiture and electrical effects, the
new three-act comedy. Mutt and

its kind presented hereabouts in years
The piece, which ran 200 nights at the
Globe theatre. Boston. has its founda-
ton from the series of comics created
by Bud Fisher, the well-known car
toenist will be the next attraction
at the Opera house on Thursday,
Feb s. Gus Hill is the producer and
he has not overlooked any angle in
making the offering the best of his
successful career. The play is in three
scenes. The first represents the club
house at the Saratoga race course:
the second is laid on the ship "Insur-
gent" while the last represents a pal
ace in a South American republic.
Every act is filled with original bits
of hImor and side-splitting situations.
sMutt and JEFF are ever in the lime
light. 1t is their many adventures,
escap ades and nischieVous schemes,
which seem ever and anon to 60 awry,
that keep the filters and mirth at a
feverish clip. There are IA song hits
and ensembles. The chorus is large
and pretty Everything in fact is on

AMUSEM ENTS.
$4,000 Picture Play Feb. s.

Albert Armstrong, who comes to
City han, next Thursday evening. Feb.
s, has found an untraveled path of
reaching the hearts of the public. His
celebrated picture play Lorna Doone',
is not only unique, fascinating and
instructive, but an entirely different
form of entertainment from any ever
seen in Augusta,
The New Orleans Ga.) Times-Dem-
ocrat says: He very cleverly por-
trays one, two, three or four charac-
tcrs at once. one sees the famous
story depicted on the canvas, hears
the voices of the characters and wit
nesses the indicents described, the
same as if a well-trained and talented
company of performers was present
ing it. The picture play is edifying
instructive and most entertaining, and
Mr.. Armstrong's performance is high
~ satisfactory from every standpoint"
The Portland Press says: Great as
were the expectations, they were
greatly surpassed. The telling of the
story ana the beautiful illustrations,
made one of the finest entertainments
ever given here. Mr.. Armstrong will
surely be heard here again.
The reserved seat sale opens, Tues
day Feb. 6. ct Bithers in this city
and Whittier's, Hallowell. There will
be 40 50-cent reserved seats in addi-
ton to the usual number of 75-cent

ESonnd are three beautiful little is
lands of g few acres in extent,
They are unsurveyed and not SUBJ

veys the land. That is to say, such
course might have been pursued
few days ago but it is now too
late. This week a crew of men Wis
tied all the little loose islands of
the San Juan group and filed North
ern Pacific scrip on them. The re-
port is circulated that the railroad
is going to build a big resort hotel
on one of the islands it is accumula-
ting and establish rival to Catali-
ma. If that proves to be true /
don't care how many little islands
the Northren Pacific picks up.
However, the fact of the railroad
scripping the land shows that peo-
ple in high places are beginning to
sit up and take notice Of the San
Juan islands. When the little fel-
lows see that the railroads are re-
cognizing the islands they will begin
to think there is some merit over
