GUARD CHEESES BY PARAFFlN
Loss of Weight by Evaporation
Method Ia New.

Nearly all cheese of the cheddar
type made in the United States is
paraffin before it reaches the public.
Yet it is not more than six years since
it became a general practice, and less
than ten that paratfining to protect
from loss of weight was first brought
to the attention of cheese handlers.
At first the process was in order to
improve the appearance, but when it
was found that the protecting coat
of paraffin to a great extent prevented
the considerable loss OF weight by
evaporation it became the usual treat
ment A circular, No. 1S1, bureau OF
animal industry, recently issued by
the United States department OF agri-
culture discussing the methods and
results of paraffining cheese, con-
cludes that it is an effective way OF
preventing losses in weight, and the
growth of mold; that for one to ten
seconds in a paraffin bath at 22O de-
grees F. is sufficient; that treatment
on the third day after coming from
the press gives the best results; and
that cheese should not be allowed to
remain in a warm curing room for
more than one day after parattining.

VENICE A CITY OF DREAMS
Many Charms for the Tourist in
This Picturesque City
of Italy.

To the wanderer in Italy, Venice
has peculiar attraction Arrive there
at sunset, or, better still, by moonlight,
and you will fancy yourself trans
planted to some city of dreams. With
daylight this feeling may wear off to
some extent, although there is never,
at any time, as much hustle and stir
in Venice as in other towns. Morning
noon or night, Venice has a fascina-
ton ali her own. This is partly due
to the fact that she is city built on
the water.
TO explore Venice and to become in
timately acquainted with her, a gon-
dola is not necessity, rather it is a
luxury for sunset evenings and moon
light nights. 1t is a delightful ex-
perience, and not difficult one, to
find ones way about Venice on foot;
quaint, old world corners are discov-
cred, bits of ancient architecture
carved doorways and little bridges
with feast of color here, there and
everywhere. Apart from all the
beauty Of scenery, there is the en-
thralling interest evoked by her his
tory and traditions
Among the traditions we read that
st. Theodore was the first patron
saint of Venice, to be superseded later
on by st. Mark The wanderer in
Venice becomes familiar with the
Lion of ST. Mark More prominently
than anywhere is it to be seen on one
of the. columns on the PiazZetta,
whilst on the other is st. Theodore.
These columns Of beautiful red and
come originally from Syria. They
were erected by Lombard engineer.

DEVELOP LONG MILK PERIODS
Much Depends on Breed, Individual
Character of Cow and Feed
One Good Plan Given.

The length of the milking period
of cow depends largely on the breed,
the individual characteristics OF the
COW and her feed. 1t is generally be-
lieved by dairymen, however, that the
length OF the first milking period OF a
heifer will influence the milking peri.
DDS of her life, and to this end the
first milking period is prolonged as
long as possible.
In developing a mixer the plan is to
keep up the milk flow clear up to with
in two or three weeks of calving the
second time in order to fix the habit
of long milking periods. The milk
drawn will often be in too small
amounts to pay for the time and trou-
BILE spent in getting it. Ii the hejfer
comes of good stock it is we'll to
give the plan trial at any rate.

Best Stock Fence.

Home. The posts are set 80 inches
in the ground and placed 10 feet
apart. No. 9 galvanized wire is run
through holes in the posts. This has
proven to be one of the great attrac-
tons of the fence, as there are no
staples to pull or rust out and the
wires are always held in their proper
position. A ratchet is placed on the
end post and the wires can be kept
tight at all times.
With monkey wrench and winding
ratchet the wire on the entire length
of fence is stretched at one time. The
wire can be loosened in the fall Of the
year and frightened in the spring, and
in this way the fence can be kept in
perfect condition at all times. Wood
posts were used from the farm wood
lot, but where all materials need to
be purchased, concrete posts with
holes for wire would not only be the
cheapest, but fence put up in this
manner would last q lifetime.
A fence must have strong and we'll

good brace for this purpose. The

Intelligent care of cows brings lib

Glover or alfalfa seem to contain
just what the dairy cow needs.
About the best fertilizer that can
be found is good barnyard manure.
Fed to hogs, skimmilk has been
found to be worth as cents per 100

The great secret in keeping butter is
to have it made right to begin with,

There are, or should be, four sources
of profit in the dairy business-butter
fat, skimmilk, calves and manure.
There is nothing that will build up
the efficiency of the dairy herd
quicker than the use of pure bred

No man is in better position to

NELSON FAvORS INCOME TAX
HOPES LEGISLATURE WILL
ADOPT AMENDMENT.
Declares United States Would Benefit
in Getting Money in Time of
War;

Washington, D. c., May Ex-senator
Knute Nelson of Minnesota expressed
the wish that the Minnesota state leg
islature, at its forthcoming session,
shall pass the federal income tax
amendment. Mr.. Nelson gave few
reasons why, in his opinion, the legis-
lature should adopt this course. He
said:
Il sincerely hope that the legisla-
ture of Minnesota will adopt the in
come tax amendment to the United
States constitution at the coming SEES
sion. Only four or five states are
needed, by formal ratification of the
amendment, to make it an effective
part of the federal organic law and
in my judgment, Minnesota should
not be in the background in agreeing
to this important amendment at this
time"
''An income tax-law may not be
necessary just at this time, but it
would be very important in time of
war, that the federal government
should have this means of securing
money, especially as in the event of a
foreign war our revenues from Gus
toms would be lost by the stOppage of
importations the federal government
should not be without the power to
tax incomes, if it shall be deemed de
sirable to raise funds by such means.
Another consideration should be cal
culated to induce the states to agree
to the income tax amendment, namely,
that the passage of a general income
tax law would do away with the pres
ent excise tax on corporations. There
is complaint about the excise tax on
corporations proceeding from the fact
that incomes of corporations are
taxed while the incomes of the part
nerships and joint stock companies
are not taxed. Thus we have the spec
tacle of a corporation being taxed up
on it's income, while there may be,
directly across the street, a partner
ship of equally large gross business
and profits that is not taxed upon net
income. This is an injustice which
would be remedied if everybody,
whether participants in corporate bust
ness or other forms of business, were
required to pay taxes upon net in
comes over and above a certain speci.
