innate relationship with each other.
For his hero, Mr. Kester has chos-
en- an interesting type-a young man
who, having sown a goodly crop OF
wild oats, who has spuandered small
inherited fortune at the gaming table,
finds his real self through the love OF
a pure, high-minded and wholesome
girl. He resolves to begin life anew,
to make something If himself and
thus attain to a position where he
may worthily claim the girl of his
heart. But John North becomes the
victim of circumstances. The shadow
of a crime falls upon him, and false
witnesses, partly bribed, partly inti-
Undated, perjure themselves against
him, Justice is blinded to his plea and
his own Quixotic impulse strains him
! from using the one means which will
free him-a means which would In
volve the name of a woman, his old
school friend, the wife of the man
who is really the murderer. And SC
he goes to the very edge of the scat
fold before the tide of circumstantiaI
evidence turns and his innocence Is
established beyond the shadow of 6
doubt.
Those who read The Prodigal Judge
will not be disappointed in The Jus
and the Unjust. 1t is another strik
ing example of the superb literar,
genius possessed by Vaughan Kester
and there is no reason why it shoult
not win its way in popular favor tt
the same high place occupied by it
predecessor.

curd has cooled TO about go F. Ordi-
nary dairy salt, at the rate Of about
two pounds to 1000 pounds Of milk
is used. 1t is put on in three appli-
cations, the curd being stirred thor
Oughly after each application. When
the curd becomes glossy 1t is ready
for the hoop.
The Young American Hoop is prob
ably the best for farm purposes. This
hoop is about nine inches deep and
seven inches in diameter. A cotton
cloth is placed on the bottom and a
cheese bandage with the seam in, is
placed over the metal which is placed
in the hoop. The hoop is now ready
for the curd which is put into it and
a cloth like the one on the bottom is
placed on top of this curd. Then
circular board fitting the hoop snug
ly is placed on top of this and the
cheese is ready for the press.
Either a cider press or a fulcrum
can be used.
If a cider press is used it should
be screwed as tight as possible. At
ter the cheese has been in the press
six or eight hours it should be taken
out. the bandage drawn free from
wrinkles, and a circular piece of
cheese cloth placed on each end.
Then the cheese should be returned
to the hoop just the reverse of the
way it had been in before and the
pressure applied again for from "a to
50 hours longer. Then the cheese is
ready for curing. a clean cellar room
where the temperature is below 65o F.
is a good place for this process. The
cheese should be placed on clean, dry
shelves or tables, and turned each
day. If any excessive moisture ap-
pears it must be wiped off with a
clean dry cloth. In from five to eight
weeks, the cheese will be ready to
use. Dipping in hot paTahn when it
is from five to seven days old pre-
vents evaporation and keeps the
cheese from moulding.
This process may seem long but in
reality it requires only a small
amount of time each day after the
curing begins, and by following the
directions carefully the farmer can
have an abundance of an almost per
feet food with a very small outlay
of cash.

CHEESE, A NOURISHING AND NEARLY
PERFECT FOOD, EASILY MADE ON FARM
The Following Directions By Rudnc of the Dairy Department
Of the State Agricultural College; Are Simple
and Easily Understood by
Anyone.

- GOD cheese is a nourishing food.
How to make it is a question
of interest to every farmer
and dairyman. A w Rudnick of the
dairy department of the Kansas Agri-
cultural College gives the following
directions:
1. Use the ordinary sanitary pre-
cautions in handling the milk,-that
is, keep all the utensils free from
dust and dirt Cthey should also be
steamed or scaIded) and remove the
milk from the barn Immediately after
milking.
,. Next take a test of the acidity
of the milk-more minute directions
for making this test may be had from
the dairy department but the follow
ing will serve to show the method:
A sample of the milk is taken and a
few drops of an alcoholic solution
of phenothaline are added. This is
stirred slowly and drop by drop one
tenth normal sodium hydroxide is
poured into the mixture until the So
luton turns pink. The percentage
of acidity is then figured as follows:
The amount of sodium hydToXide
used is multiplied by g and the re-
suit divided by the amount Of milk
used. This result should be about
0.19 or 0.20 when it is ready for rem
net to be added If it is less than
that a small amount of clean sour
milk can be added.
8. Add cheese color at the rate Of
one ounce of color to 1000 pounds of
milk
f. Heat the milk to Sc F. Then
add rennet at the rate of four ounces
to I 600 pounds of milk. The rennet
is diluted in twenty times its bulk OF
water (having temperature of Sc F.
and added while the milk is being
stirred vigorously. Stir for a few
minutes longer and then cover the
vat with a cloth.
The curd is ready 70 cut when it
will break clean from the side of the
vat 1t should then be cut into 3s
inch cubes with knives made for that
purpose These cubes should be con-
stantIy stirred in the whey so that
they VII not mat. Next the cuTd
should be heated to about 90 F.,
reaching that temperature in from
20 to 80 minutes. The curd is al
lowed to remain in the whey until
the whey has an acidity of from DIG
to 0.1S. This curd should be in such
a condition that when it is taken in
the hand, pressed and released, it
will spring out Of the hand. The
whey is then drawn off and the curd
piled on either side of the vat in piles
about six inches deep, leaving ditch
in the center for the whey to drain
away. Now cover the curd with a

Here are some of the simplest
dairy facts" in the primer, written
in the agricultural college by Prof.
o. E. Reed, for the rural schools OF
Kansas:
The greatest advantage in dairy
farming is its relation to the fertil-
ity OF the soil. No other system OF
farming exeels in this respect, and
but few equal it. A farm used for
dairy purposes does not lose in fer
tility but gains, and may be used Tor
this purpose almost indefinitely.
Selling grain is selling soil fertiI-
ity and no soil can grow grain year
after year without sooner or later
reaching the point where this ex-
haustion is felt. When soil fertility
is sold of the farm it will have to
be purchased again in the future
either through feeding stuffs or as
commercial fertilizer.
When animals or milk products are
sold OF the farm, only small por-
ton OF the fertility OF the entire crop
Is sold. while the greater part OF the

Beavers, when they have been undis-

relation to strange sounds They will
come swimming out of their house
even at the firing of a gun. The In
dams usually call them with a kissing
noise or one produced by munching
the lips. Another favorite tole is
sound made by tapping the trousers
with the hand. The most successful
beaver-caller in Newfoundland killed
great numbers OF beavers, in the omen
season. by making a sound that re-
sembled the cutting of chips OF a tree

never fail to respond to this noise.

A will Of a confirmed woman-hater,
writes Virgil NJ. Harris in Ancient
Curios and Famous Wills is that of
rich old bachelor who had endured
much from attempts made by his
family TO put him under the yoke Of
matrimony. and who wrote: I beg
that my executors will see that I am
buried where there is no woman in
tered, either to the right or to the
left of me. Should this not be prac-

things. I direct that they purchase
three graves, and bury me in the mid

Tracks in the Snow

By DONALD ALLEN

1t was the first snow Of the season.
and therefore not much OF a snow
just about enough to call out the
cats and rabbits and encourage them
to leave million tracks on the white
blanket.
When Miss Ida Benham looked
from her window in the morning she
uttered a long-drawn "O-h-h-h!" at
the sight When she got downstairs
she 'O-h-h-h-edI" again, and encour-
aged by the smile Of Aunt Betty's
hired man she cIasped her hands and
exclaimed:
''Oh. this is what I was waiting
for!"

You'll get million of EN-"
The first snow in the city is not
like the first snow in the country.
There is a difference in the white
ness, and when there are tracks in
the back yard city man must admit
that they were made by tomcats in
stead of rabbits.
Miss Ida was eighteen, but had
never seen real rabbit track. Mel
Their had she ever met a hired man.
She had seen dog tracks and met
gruf policemen in Central park.
Il shall put on my shortest skirt, -
she said to her aunt as they ate
breakfast, land my thick shoes and

shall hunt down as many as six rab-
