DAILY u 10 N(OgLzLEy

A change Of pasture is good for both
COWS and pasture.
Early morning is the time to make
the best job of churning in hot wea-
Their
COWS that are not kept in milk well
I'D to caIying time never attain their
best.
The COW with a good appetite is a
better producer than the one that is
"fnicky."
The only object of working is to
distribute the salt evenly and compact
the butter.
Wheat bran and linseed meal make
tho best combinations to give a fresh
ening COW.
Harvest goes on the year around
in the dairy business. Something to
sell every day.
Cream should be chIrned at as low
= temperature as possible and have
the butter come in thirty minutes.
A large udder is not always to be
trusted as a sure sign Of a good
mixer. Better see the milk in the
pail
GOOD pasture lot near the barn
where the cows may Craze at night
viii keep up the milk flow during the
hot months.
The next time a COW gives bloody
mix give her>a dose Of Epson salts,
lathe her udder IN warm water and
rub with camphorated lard This will
cften cure the trouble.
Ii native pasture does not supply
enough grass it will pay well TO put a
succession of soiIing crops in these
lots or fields.
Resular careful milking permanent
w improves the animal as a mix
prcducer, aside from directly Tnc3sas-
ing the milk flow.
Il is well to fight shy of the dairy
r5w that is offered for sale cheap
these days. At best she is probably
good only for beef.
One way Of keeping dirt, flies, ETC.,
from dropping into the pail while
milking is to cover the pail with
clean cheesecloth and milk through it.

TRY TO AVOID CAR SHORTAGE
Commission Is Asking Shippers to
Cooperate With Railroads for
Prompt Handling.

Observation-Disclosures and other
northwestern states face a car short
age unparalleled since 1907. Traffic
managers of leading western rail
roads, cooperating with the Asso-
citation of Western Railways. are
writing letters to shippers forecast
ing a scarcity of rolling stock with
in the next thirty days unless all in
terest cooperate for the prompt han
ding Of shipments. Following this
advice, the Wisconsin railroad cbm-
mission is notifying leading manu-
facturers of the impending danger.
1t recommends that orders for future
shipments be placed as soon as pos
sible and that every effort be made
to load and unload equipment so that
there may be no delay in holding
cars

IIse Care in Breeding.

When heifer calves are to be reared
for milk cows the dairyman cannot
be too particular about breeding the
COWS to dairy sires. While occasional
~ a good animal has been produced
from a sire belonging to either the
beef or general purpose breeds, this
is an. exception. The only safe plan
is to give the heifer calf the strong
est possible inherited tendency toward
milk production, and then use all rea-
sonabIe means to develop this ten
dency by proper feed and care. It
is by such a system that a good dairy
herd may be built up. Gull all the
poor animals and keep only the best
From these secure the best heifer
calves.

USE FOUND FOR BUTTERMILK
Utilization of Large Quantities OF
Hitherto Waste Product Causes
Stir In Wisconsin,

In a recent bulletin from the Wis
consin experiment station the making
Of cheese from butterm5lk is pretty
fully described, says Hoard's Dairy
man This caused somewha Of a stir
in the dairy world, and since il re-
suits in the utilization OF large uuan-
titles OF buttermiIk wasted every year
It is well worthy Of consideration. It
makes a very acceptable cheese sand
wich, and the profit in the enterprise
viii depend entirely upon whether or
not a steady market can be developed
for it. Being perishabIe product,
very much like cottage cheese, 1t I'LL
keep only few days The fact Of
the matter is there is very little diff
ference between buttermilk cheese
and cottage cheese, except that the
former has a buttermiIk flavor.
Packing and selling this cheese re-
quires special attention, since the pub
lie is not familiar with the product,
1t may be shipped in butter tubs and
retailed in paper pals or other small
packages. 1t will keep for week
or ten days at temperature OF so to
90 degrees, but it can be kept longer
If the temperature is lowered to 50
degrees or below. 1t has been sold at
three to five cents a pound at the
factory and retaiIed at to 121a cents.
If color is desired this may be Sc
cured by adding cheese coloring, the
same as used in cheddar cheese.
The making of this buttermilk
cheese is inexpensive, as the drainage
racks, symptoms, ETC., can be construct.
ed by almost anyone. When only a
very small amount is desired the ordi.
nary utensils of a creamery can be
utilized.

Madison.-The signatures Of %
500 residents Of Wisconsin are sign

cation:

any way responsible for the shoot
ing Of Oscar Harp"
If pardoned, Dietz will. she de-
clares, prove beyond a reasonable
doubt that he did not kill Harp. Mrs.
Dietz declares that her husband is
innocent, that Harp was killed by
a bullet from the gun Of some other
deputy sheriff, that Dietz did not
have a fair trial, that Jurors Smith
and Sabean were prejudiced against
DIetz, that the residents of Sawyer
county were prejUdiced against him,
that Dietz did not believe he would
be convicted and therefore did not
properly prepare for his defense, that
Dietz was a good husband and father
and. that it is necessary for him to
be with his family.
