instructions How to Make Correct
Tssts-Prseautions to Be Observed
to Insure Satisfactory Results.

This test is used to determine the
amount OF butter fat in milk and
cream. It's use in connection with a
milk scales furnishes the farmer a
quick and simple means Of finding out
exactly how much butter each COW In
his herd Ia giving Knowing this, he
can then retain the high-producing
cows in the herd and use their on
spring to secure still further improve
ment in the herd yield.
A complete testing outfit costs from
IS to $40, depending upon the capacity.
Complete directions are sent with each
outfit, and by following these any
farmer can easily make quick and
accurate test.
The apparatus used consists Of 0
whirling machine or centrifuge, (2)
graduated test bottles. (3) a glass
measuring pipette. 90 glass acid
measure, (b) a bottle OF ordinary com
mercial sulphuric acid.
How To Make the Test.
a. Thoroughly mix the milk by
pouring or stirring and take out a
small amount few spoonsful will be
sufficient.

(2) Suck milk up into glass measure
pipette until It comes above the 17.6
C. c. mark Suddenly close the upper
end OF the pipette with the finger. By
slightly releasing the pressure of the
finger ALLOW the milk to drop out of the
lower end until II comes exactly to the
mark on the pipette. when 1t is stopped
by pressing down firmly with the
finger Carefully transfer milk from
plpette to test bottle, being careful not
to lose a particle of milk in making
the transfer
49, Measure out acid into acid meas
ure, which is marked TO indicate the
proper quantity Pour acid into test
bottle with milk Thoroughly mix acid
and milk by shaking gently.
% Place test bottles containing
mixture OF milk and acid in whirling
machine. making certain that the ma
chine is balanced. Turn the machine

point until mixture reaches base Of
test bottle neck N'hirl again for two
minutes. Stop machine and add no
water with pipette to the per cent
mark on neck of bottle. Whirl again
one minute.
This completes the test and the but
terfat is shown as clear or light
straw-colored liquid in the upper part
OF the bottle neck. The sulphuric acid
has acted on the constituents of the
milk, setting free the butterfat The
hot water added brings the liquid mix
ture up into the neck of the bottle and
the whirling causes the bottles to fly
out into a horizontal position. The
acid mixture being heavier is thrown
toward the outside, the butterfat, be-
ing lighter, is forced toward the center
and into the neck of the bottle. This
is divided into 10 equal spaces, repre-
senting l per cent
The Test Is Then "Read."
Suppose the upper end OF the fat
column extends to the S.2 mark and
the lower end of the column to SO.
Subtract 3.6 from So. This gives 40
per cent. which is the percentage OF
butterfat in the sample This means
that in 100 pounds Of the milk there
are i.6 pounds OF butterfat.
Precautions To Be Observed.
"a Test bottles must be thoroughly
clean and the inside free from gases.
90 yhirling machine must be kept
we'll oiled (3) acid bottle must be kept
tightly stoppered else the acid will
lose its strength, (4) sample must be
thoroughly mixed, 90 the fat column
must be measured at once before the
fat hardens. Following the last whirl-
ing, It is best to set bottles in a pail
in which is placed enough hot water
GAO degrees Fah) to come nearly to
the top Of the neck of bottles.
II IL well to order few extra test
bottles to replace bottles broken in
use, and an extra pipette.
Cream is tested by the use OF a spe-
cial cream bottle. A special pipette
(1S o. c.) Is needed.

Tri-COunty Teachers Institute To Be-
Held In DanvilIe Week OF October 9Th

The Tri-county Teachers Institute,
composed OF the counties of Mercer,
Boyle and Garrard will be held in Dan
vile KY, the week beginning October
9th. Miss Jennie Higgins, Superin-
tendent of Schools for Garrard county
is in receipt of a letter from State
Superintendent, Barksdale Hamlet,
an extract from which we print below,
and which will prove of interest to
Garrard county teachers.
Il have received so many inquiries
concerning the Teachers Institutes,
that deem it wise to write you this
letter. No teacher can count the time
of the Institute when the school and
the Institute are set to begin on the
same date. The school must actually
begin and must have been taught for
one or more full days before you can
pay the teachers for such teacher the
State funds, except as stated above.
No teacher can be all Lived to count
the time as taught for anything what
ever, except when the school has been
regularly and legally dismissed by the
County Board of Health or by the Di-
vision Board of Education on account
of contagious disease"
1t will be pleasant news to the people
of Lancaster to know that the joint in
stitute will probably meet in Lancaster
next year, as it is again our term. The
joint institute held here two years ago
was a source of great deal of pleas
ure and of material benefit to our peo-
pie and the teachers will be again
warmly welcomed.

Four hundred people employed and
carrying over two hundred foreign and

made by Mr.. F. M. Heaton, agent for
the Sparks Shows, who was in town
last Monday making arrangements for
the appearance of this big circus here
on THURSDAY, SEPT, 18th.
The strange colony of people, hand
some horses, rare wild animals and the
golden caravans are scheduled to arrive
here during the early hours of the
morning of the above date in their own
special trains from Campbellsville,
where they will exhibit the day before.
Circus day will begin with a big
street parade at 1890 A. M. and two
performances will be given, the first

quantities of feed stuff for both man
and beast.
The Sparks World Famous Shows
have been successfully established for
the past twenty-seven years and bear
reputation in the Eastern sections of
the country second to none for the high
class exhibitions presented and the
honest manner they have of dealing
with the public--no gambling or graft

CONTEST.

test to win and that you expect their
support. You will get renewal or a
subscription from all of them.
1t is worthy ambition to get to
the top of the list but it is also good
idea to create reserve fund to drop
in at some future date when you feel
that it is necessary and also. to have a
large bunch in reserve for the closing
night when the real strength of the
contestants show up.
Those who have no direct interest in
the contest, will generally look over
the list when they renew their sub
scriptions and are sure to cast their
votes for some one whose name they
find there so it will pay you to send in
your nomination at once and get the
benefit of your share of this sort of
business.
There is very little difference in the
standing of the candidates to date,
nearly the entire field could be covered
by few years subscription so that
anyone starting today could be in the
lead in few days, by devoting a few
hours to seeing friends.
SOME MISTAKES.
One candidate will complain that
everybody takes the Central Record;
| find it hard to get new subscrip-
TONS" That complaint is usually
made after the candidate has talked
with about three or four people who
are subscribers. But the town is big,
there are many towns surrounding,
and rural free delivery gives the coun-
try folks almost as good service as
their city brethren. There are in
Vulnerable advantages about the Cen.
trail Record which appeal to the sub.
scriber. Candidates who are really in
earnest find no difficulty in showing
these advantages to their friends.
But above all else tower the mag.
nifcent rewards that are to be made
to thirteen people of vicinity.
Their value, as a first considera
ton, and to consider the matter
from a strictly commercial standpoint
is enough to attract the attention Of
every ambitious man or woman in any
community. Their desirability from /,
strictly utilitacian standpoint is another
strong factor that is going to appea
strongly to every class, and last, anC
perhaps best, is that overwhelming
and deeply planted desire to be a win
ner no matter what sort of business
or pleasure you may be engaged in
1t is foolish to say that one does no
care for any of these prizes. 1t il
equally foolish to try to deceive friend
with a plea that you are a candidat,
only because some friend has nominal
ed you. AS a matter of fact ever,
contestant wants to win for the sever
al reasons set forth above, and TO
perhaps dozen others that the con
test man hasn't the time to enumerate

~ Lion Pulls and Horse Pulls,

If lion and a strong horse were to
pull in opposite directions the horse
would pull the lion backward with
comparative ease. But if the lion were
hitched behind the horse and facing In
the same direction and were allowed to
exert his strength in backing he could
easily pull the horse down upon his
launches or drag him across the ring.
so much greater is his strength when
exerted backward from the hind legs
than in forward pulling.
