oRAplmo OF CREAM PAYS

Ane OlO QueStlOn OF grazing
cream to secure a high grade Of
butter comes around every spring
just as regular as the woodpeck-
er. 1t is a matter of justice to
every farmer, creamery man and
butter eater, yet it takes a lot of
hammering, rasping and temper
ing on this "old saw" to make
it scratch the hardened bark on q
good deal of timber in every dairy
section.
The only just and honest way
is to grade the cream; then the
farmer gets more for his cream,
the butter maker can produce a
higher grade of butter and the
consumer is able to get value re-
ceived for his money.
How it works. The flavor of
the cream determines the flavor
of the butter because the butter
fat in the cream very readily alb
serbs any flavor that may be in
the milk or the cream and will
appear in the butter after it is
churned. 1t takes only about one
day in hot weather to sour the
cream to point where the bac-
terra begin to break up the casein.
At this point the bad favors begin
and the cream needs to be churn-
ed. 1t takes good cooling vats
and plenty of cold water to keep
cream more than two days in the
summer time. The best way is
to deliver it to the creamery at
least three times a week.
The regular size of creamery
vat is 400 gallons. If five gal
Ion can of old rotten cream is
put into 400 gallon vat of cream
it will lower the grade of the
whole churning and the butter
will sell at least &c per pound
less on the market. In four
hundred gallon vat of 80 per cent
cream there will be abou. ll76
pounds Of butter. If this sells for
2 cents pound less on the mar
ket it will make a difference of
$23.52 on the one vat of cream.
A can of poor cream will often
make even &c to &c difference in
The selling price of the butter.
A five gallon can of 80 per cent
cream will lbe worth about $3.50
at the creamery but when mixed
with the good cream it will re-
duce the value Of the churning
$3.50. From this is seen that
it will pay to dump the poor
cream in the gutter rather than
to lower the grade of a whole
churning Of butter.
How to grade. A great many
creameries all over the country
have changed to the grading plan
with excellent success. The
usual rules are tao make two
grades of cream and pay prem
ium of from &c to Sc per pound
of butter fat on all cream grading
first. First grade; all sweet
cream having a clean, pleasant
odor and flavor with a smooth,
even consistency. Second grade;
'all:'seur cream reasonably clean
and pleasant in odor and sfree
from dirt and Jumps.
In some places, it is necessary
for the cream TO test 3t+per cent
or above and be delivered at the
creamery at least twice q week
in winter and three times a week
in the summer, in order to grade
first. Other creameries pay an
additional premium of 1c pei
pound to have the cream deliver
ed on certain days. This plan
works out very satisfactorily al
j certain seasons as it cuts down

The Abilene Plan.

Abilene, Kas., has had a commits
sion form of government for the last
three or four years. While the nov
city lasted the Commissioners attend
ed to their duties assiduously, but af-
ter while they perceived that if they
attended strictly to their duties as
Commissioners they would have to
neglect their own business, and the
salaries would not warrant that. They
decided that it would not be neces-
sary to poke into everything and
stand over everything relating to the
management of the town if they
could find one good man who would
give all his time to the business of
managing. They therefore pooled
their salaries, hired a competent en-
gineer to take care of the municipal
plant and let him run it. The plan

incorporated, and the hotel people

Mr.. Stifel must be pretty weary by
this time of playing the role of angel
to the Republican country politicians
of Missouri. Thos. j. Niedringhaus
was former victim of the party in
this way and when he wanted to be
in the United States Senate, he was
handed a cold potato and the prize
went to Major William Warner of
Kansas City who was always conven-
iently out of town when committee
came around his way soliciting cam
paign funds. Mr.. Niedringhaus fin
anced the party to the extent of many
thousands of dollars out of his own
pocket and got nothing in return.

negro, who was enfranchised solely
to keep the Republican party in pow

its ruin and defeat. Negro domina-
ton was the issue in the last Repub-
lican convention upon which the split
occurred. And the old time Repub-
cans are now willing to concede the
Progressive demands and eliminate
the negro as the price of party union.

the Taft Republicans during the early
days of the late campaign when the

WE'LL NOT FORGET THIS TIME,

While we are hustling around these
days selecting presents for the wife
and the kids and granddad and grand
ma and Aunt Molly and Uncle Bill,
let us not overlook the little Riddles
just across the way for whom no one
is doing any Christmas hustling. Of
course money is tight and business is
dull, and the crops were bad this
year and it is going to push us all to
have any Christmas for our own i'm.
mediate folks, but what little we have
we are going to enjoy, and we can't
really enjoy that greatest of all days
if we know some poor little tot just
about the age of our Johnny or Mary
is going to wake up on Christmas
morning to find that Old Kris Kringle
has Overlooked the forlorn little
stocking.
We're pretty good kind of folks
down here in Bates county. We like
our neighbors and when they get
sick or are unfortunate and fall behind
in their work we jump in and help
'em out and are glad to do it. We
take care of what few paupers we
have and hold up our end in pretty
good shape, but say, didn't we for
get that little tow-headed son-of-a-gun
down the road last year? Believe
we did, and I'll bet the poor little ras-
cal has been wondering ever since
just what he had done to get Old
Santa sore on him. But we amt 90
ing to forget him this year. Course
we're pretty hard run, but we're 90
ing to see that he gets visit from the
old chap this time even if we do have
to cut the pie out Of our Christmas
dinner and pass up that ten cent cigar
we've been blowing ourselves to
once year.
