Strain the cream through a wire

Churn at a temperature that will

of a thermometer and intelligent OBJ
servatiOn, as result of a few churn-

determine the proper temperature at
which to churn. Churn should be
stopped when butter granules are
large as corn kernels or peas. Time
required for churning should be rs
to 80 minutes.
Use clear, pure water for washing
the butter. 1t should not be more
than 3 degrees colder or warmer than

equal to that of the buttermilk. In a

Work the butter sufficiently to dis
tribute salt without injuring the grain
or texture. Determine working by
/, appearance; 2, texture; 3, grittineSS
Butter, when' sufficiently worked,
should present a firm, glossy appear-
ance. The texture should resemble
the broken end of a steel rod~~There
should be no grittiness due to the un-
evenly distributed or undisolved salt
This can be determined by taking q
small piece Of butter between the
teeth and biting into it repeatedly, any
grittinesS will SOOn be observed. In.
sufficient working is generally shown
by a mOttled appearance in color or
the cut surface. This is largely due
to an uneven distribution Of salt. Thi.
results in a salty condition and in.
jures the keeping quality. The aim O.
butter makers should be to produce {
hlgh-grade article that is uniform
week after week in flavor and compo
sition. This can be done by careful
methods in ripening, sailing, an(
working.
Put the butter up in clean, neat, at

In each of the tests the dry-lot
cattle made the greatest gain during
the first month, but there was a de-
cided decline during the next two
months owing to their becoming Fat
ter and the condition of the weather
The cattle in the pasture made the
smallest gain during the first month
due, OF course, to the change from
dry lot to pasture and the decrease in
the amount Of grain they would eat.
The steers in the dry lot made a
gain Of S94 pounds in excess Of those
On pasture during the first month OF
summer feeding, but the second month
the difference was only so pounds and
the third month those on pasture
gained 60 pounds over those in the
dry lot.
This shows that in the superiority
or the dry-lot method h feeding was
due entirely to the behavior of the
steers the first month. after which h
| pasture was superior.
The result of three months feeding
show a difference of TAI pounds gain
in favor Of the dry-lot cattle during
the three years., which was sufficient
to all the other advantages
Of pasture feeding when considered in
connection with the added bloom
and higher market price Of the dry
lot at the time Of marketing.
Our conclusions were that if il
were possible to turn them out early
in the eason before the grass starts
n continue the feeds used in the
dry lot SO that the steers would be
accustomed to the grass gradually.
then there would be an advantage Of
dry-lot feeding in the summer, except
for that which is due to the premium
trade for Qry-lOt cattle on the central
markets, caused by the general belief
that from such cattle are
superior to those from grass-fed ami
mails.

The rise in price Of poultry Of all
kinds which is reported to have taken
place in various States cannot, in the
of Agriculture, be in any way attri-
buted to the outbreak of the foot
and-mcuth disease. This disease does
not affect poultry at all, and the Fed
eral guarantees Of various States
IA in all-nOw lay no embargo upon
shipments Of poultry.
It is true hat when a case of foot
and-mOuth disease is found upon a
farm that farm is absolutely uaran-

leave it, the owner is not even per-

children are not allowed to go to

premises thoroughly disinfected.
Since the disease, moreover, is readily
communicated from farm to farm
by cats, dogs, poultry, and human be-
ings, the local authorities exercise
their own discretion in determining
what restrictions should be placed
upon shipments Of produce from the
area in the immediate vicinity Of the
infected farm. These areas are SO
limited in extent, however, that the
amount Of poultry that may thus be
prevented from reaching the market
is an inappreciable percentage of tho
total supply. Poultry from the min

the creamery operator. This knowl-
edge and it's importance should be
known in order hat it be intelligently
applied. Cleanliness and attention to
details are the three prerequisites to
the making of good butter. The main
defects in farm butter show these
three prerequisites to be very fire.
quently neglected. These defects are:
/. Bad flayors.
2. Lack Of uniformity in c1lor and
salt.
3. Unsuitable packages and no
uniformity in the style of the pack
ages.
The bad flavors are due largely or
entirely to the changes in the milk
and cream before it is churned, rather
than to the subsequent treatment of
the butter.
The importance Of cleanliness can
not be overemphasized. In Jul haste
to accomplish a task we often sacri-
flee our better Judgment, only to learn
that haste at hat stage of the work
necesSitates a waste in time and labor
at a later period. This is particularly
true in handling milk and cream to
be used for butter on farms. The
bodies of the COWS, the utensils, and
the conditions at the barn, the milk
ROOM, n the storage room should
all be clean. These are the primary
factors which affect the cleanliness
of milk and cream.
The utensils should be of such
material and construction hat they
are easily cleaned and kept SO. The
interior should be smooth, with nc
cracks or creviceS for dirt and milk
remnants to find Judgment and be
removed only with difficulty. The
surface should be heavily tined and
the same filled with solder. Tin.
ware should be kept bright and per
feet. As soon as any rust spots make
their appearance an entrance is giver
into the soft iron for germs anG
small particles of decaying matter
which are, in consequence, removed
with much more difficulty. The proc
ess of cleaning vessels which have
contained milk should be:
First, to rinse them thoroughly il
cold water, then in lukewarm water
Second, wash thoroughly with the ali
of some good soap or cleansing pow
der in water as hot as the hand will
bear. Third, thoroughly rinse in no
water. Fourth, expose to live steam
from one to two minutes or to bOilini
hot water for five minutes in cas-
steam is not available. Fifth, ex
posure, if possible, in bright sunligh
from two to three hours.
In this way the tinware can be keI
clean and bright and free from BAG
terra. Having thoroughly cleaned tn
vessels the prevention of access {
dirt to the milk in process of milkin
is important.
The following few brief instruction
will prove of great assistance to far1
butter makerS:
Keep good cows that will produt
from 200 to 800 pounds or more
butter fat annually.
Feed them literally; follow method
commonly employed among feeders
contrasting associations.
Keep the cows comfortable al
clean when in the stable.
Skim a rich heavy cream of n
less than rs per cent fat.
Keep an accurate, reliable the
mometer at hand and use it INTEL
gently.
Keep the cream cool. 1t should
as near SO degrees F. as possible,
ii is desirable to keep it sweet al
