WILL TRY OUT new RATES
Great Western Agrees on Test for
Four Months.

Judge c. A. willard of the United
States district court, sitting at st.
Paul, signed an order directing the
Great Western railroad to put the Min
nesota legal rates for passengers and
freight into effect four months, begin
ming Oct. 1, as a test period to deter
mine whether or not the rates are
confscatory.
The order was the result of a stipu-
laticn agreed to by attorneys for the
state and for the railroad and the plan
is one proposed at former hearing
by T. d. O'Brien, of counsel for the
state. This order disposes for the
present of the states suit to compel
the road to put in the legal rates. The
road already has agreed to comply
with the 2-cent fare law, but has only
reduced freight rates to meet compe-
tition.

Leasing Law Wrong

In a country where the land is
as fertile as the Mission valley
from the lake to the railroad,
there must be something wrong
in the manner of handling the
leasing of the vacant lands when
so many of the big leasers are
leaving as is the case here at
the present time. The attention
of the department is called to
this fact and it is to be hoped
that some changes may occur to
remedy the defects which are
driving SO many good citizens
away. If those who are leaving
were from just any one locality
it might be attributed to local
conditions, but from all parts of
the valley comes the same re-
port. Their inability to make
leases on terms by which they
can make it pay is the only
reason.

FOREIGN BEEF DEPRE:ssEs
NORTHERN CATTLE MARKET

The Inter Ocean Of October Il,
says that beef is being imported
now from Argentina since the
new tariff has gone into effect
and that it has q tendency tC
lower the price from 40 to sc
cents per hundred. Also that
Canadian grass fed cattle arc
crossing tha border and is afford
ing cattle feeders an opportunity
of securing this class Of cattle at
considerable less cost than be-
fore.
More than G, 600 quarters Of
Argentina beef were received at
New York last week, reducing
the price as above stated. South
American beef is likely to be a
factor to be rock0ned with by
local cattle men in the future.
The tariff law allows cattle to
come in free and it will probably
cheaper all kinds Of meat in con-
sequence. The high price for
fancy beef at Chicago last week
was So. 60, compared with $lO.o5

quent}y SO the whey will separate.
Heat to about IS degrees, then
drain at once through cheese
cloth bag. When the desired
amount of curd has been obtained
it must be thoroughly crumbled
with the hands, packed loosely
(as this hastens the work of
bacteria) in an earthen jar.
Keep on the back of the range
and cover with a cheese cloth to
admit air.
This curd must be worked two
Or three times daily, preferably in
the pan, for then each part will
become thoroughly Incorporated
with bacteria, and the ripening
process be even through the
entire batch. Should the nights
turn cold, the jar must be set in
a tight. close place, and wrapped
with thick cloths. If chilled
when sweating" the resultant
cheese will be Of inferior quality.
About eight or ten days is the
usual length of tine to finish" it.
When the curd is soft and
creamy to the touch, and emits
strong odor, it is ready for the
finishing touch. Add two pounds
of fresh butter and sufficient salt
to the taste, which depends
largely on the individual. Salt
enough must go in, however, to
keep it, SO it is best to add little
at a time, until tf'ifle to salty.
This will disappear with the age
Of the cheese. Mold into shape,

inches thick Pin a etrin Of ,,a,.a--.
lin around the edge to keep the
mass in shape, overv,Mith a plate
and weight down with heavy
stone.
The best place to dry it is in an
upstairs, west or north window,
where the air circulates freely.
BE careful that the sun does not
strike it. When the surplus
whey is all out, remove the
weight and cloth, and keep un-
covered in a cool, airy place. A
large, round, wire flour sieve is
the best device | have yet dis
covered to protect the cheese
from possible insect harm.
Cheese in this way is very
nourishing. 1t is not only rich
and tasteful, but an excellent
appitzier. The cost is nothing
except the value of the butter
and the time required, for the
making is very little as COM
pared with the food value. Mrs.
