PROBLEM OF WINTER BUTTER
Proper Ripenino of Cream-Churn
at Least Twice q Week.
(By S. c. MILLER

We cannot hope to make good but.
ter without the proper ripening OF
the cream. This is in fact the most
important part of the work. Most
farm people keep skimming during
the entire week, putting all into one
lot, and often the last days churning
is skinned directly into the churn.
and of course this has not ripened at
all
This plan gives cream of six DIFF.
ferent periods of ripening. 1t is al
most impossible to get good butter
from week-old cream.
Churning should be done at least
twice a week After the cream Is
taken Off it should be kept at low
temperature to discourage the growth
of bacteria until about twelve hours
before churning, when the starter
should be added to ripen it. and the
temperature raised to IS degrees or
a little over.
In summer churning can be done at
90 degrees, but in winter the temper
allure should be from six to eight de-
grees higher. If churned at more
than 65 degrees a good deal of the
curd may be Incorporated, and this
will make butter of a cheesy flavor,
which does not keep well.
Rancid butter is caused by insult
hcient washing. The wilk left in the
butter will soon become strong, and 1t
should be all washed out, care being
taken. however not to overwash the
butter. as this will take out the good
flavor.
In sailing. the mass should be
spread out thinly and the salt
sprinkled over evenly, because 1t is
almost impossible to work the salt
through all of the butter IL it is
thrown all in one place.
Streaked or notified butter is near
ly always caused by uneven sailing.
After sailing, the butter should be al
lowed to stand for five or six hours
and then worked again.
Our experience is that unless the
farmer is well equipped to make but
ter in very large quantities, with &C
cess to a good private trade which
Will pay fair prices, it is better to
sell the cream than to attempt to
make butter for the market.

LEAF MOLD MOST VALUABLE

and Water Leaves Often.

Leaf mold is valuable and neces-
sary addition to the soil, used in pot
ting plants, in the hot bed. or for
growing seedlings in the open air. It
is also fine when used for a mulch on
the lawn. 1t makes soil friable and
aids root formation
Dig hole large enough to accom-

and pack them in layers, stamping
and watering each layer. Turn and
water the leaves several times a year
Leaves may be piled in the fence

keep them from blowing away. Stir
the leaves every few weeks, watering
them thoroughly every time.
