South Bend news-times. (South Bend, Ind.) 1913-1938, 1913-10-01

years. has here on exhibit a No. 16
United States cream separator. which
is coupled to a Perkins two and
half horsepower horizontal gas en-
CINE. Some time during exposition
week these two machines will be
shown in operation, the dairy appa-
ratus actually and effectually sepa-
rating the cream from the milk, a
process which milkmen reduced 10
an exact science some time ago. No
modern dairy could operate without
a cream SEPARATOR OF some sort, for
without one, there is bound to be
some traces of cream on the top of
the bottles we find on our back stoop
every morning, and that would be
contrary To all precedent Yes, the
separator is indispensable to that sort
Of business.
In the South Bend tea store show
window we find a very dainty display
Of hand painted china-plates tea
cups, pitchers and a pair II cunning
little egg-shaped salt $40 pepper
shakers done in the most delicate
tints. The most attractive piece.
however, is a large china tray Gov
'ered with a profusion OF lilacs in full
bloom which are so realistic that one
can almost pick them off the plate.
Out in front Of the store we go to
the other extreme and find here the
inelegant. but nutritious, rutabaga.
The rutabaga isn't very strong on
loOks-that is. good looks, although
it has the distinction of not looking
like anything else, and If il did look
like anything else or anything else
looked like 1t, the other thing would
pro bably jump in front of a train or
leap from the Lasalle av. bridge as
the easiest solution OF the problem.
The homely rutabaga, however, like
most other things unbeautiful TO see.
is highly useful. and we are told
, when properly cooked quite surpass-
es the turnip as a table vegetable.
This Is Some Corn.
Thirty-siX entries Of field corn on
the stalk stand in stately array, some
OF them so tall that they would be
credit to that Kansas whose tabled
corn is said TO grow as high as the
tallest pine, in front of Zeltner's hard
ware store. BY actual measurement
the tallest stalk on exhibit attains 8
feet which while not so spectacular
on paper. nevertheless is a right
smart height for corn grown here
abouts. The average yield per stalk
is five ears. and another entry is eX-
pected with seven ears. A cornstalk
/ of course doesn't find seven ears any
drawback. but they certainly would
be a disadvantage TO a retiring citi-
/ zen who lived in the same neighbor-
