(By BESSIE L. PUTNAM.)
Many who grant that the separator
is useful in the summer, do not fully
realize that it is just as useful in the
winter time
In fact where there is a quantity of
milk to handle, it is in some respects
even more of a necessity
Milk has, of course, many points
which require especial attention dur
ing, the cold weather, and to adjust
these seems to be the special mission
of the separator
Almost everyone who complains dur
ing the cold weather that the cream
does not rise properly, has seen di-
rections to obviate this by heating on
the range almost to the scalding point
when the milk is first strained.
Some have tried this with success,
and well know that it means more
hard work, and butter money under
such conditions is surely earned. Yet,
where the milk is obtained in large
quantities this method would be out
of the question without special facili-
ties
The separator asks no special ia
vors, and the cream must separate
when it gets to work. The process is
equally thorough and easy in zero
weather, or when the mercury is trav-
cling around among the nineties.
| Also, the cream will be of the same
uniform quality day after day. There
| is on danger Of being compelled to
churn for hours just because the but
ter refuses to come, which is usually
the result of slow gathering of the
condition lessened when all the cream
is bound to come, and that at the prop
er time
The mixing of too much milk with
the cream, the cream-gauge arranges
perfectly
Butter made from a separated
cream is uniform in quality. There is
no need of an apology because the
cream was a little this or that, for
where only the cream and not the
milk must be kept at certain temper
allure, the work is easily done.
To keep the milk for hours at the
most favorable temperature might
mean great inconvenience in the
household, but the smaller cream jal

quently bringing as much as 71z to 8
cents per pound.
While during the past this plan has
worked well, we believe that many
farmers will be forced TO discontinue
the practice, because of the essential
weakness of the system which requires
that all cows, however good, go to the
butcher after serving one year in. the
dairy. this meaning the slaughter of
thousands of good dairy cows and a
consequent shortage in the supply.
Cows of average quality or. even rather
inferior grade COWS are bringing from
$50 to 500 each. Ten years ago such
COWS sold freely at less than one-hah
the present prices. This means that
raising milk cows is at present very
profitable business and many stock
men will undoubtedly show their wis
dom by taking advantage Of the oppor.
tunity thereby afforded and will raise
few good young dairy heifers each
year. Not only is the raising of such
stock profitable at the present time,
but tho best posted stockmen predict
that 1t will continue so for q good
many years to come

FEEDING PEANUTS TO SWINE
Hay Will Run From One-Half to One
Ton Per Acre and Is Almost Equal
to Alfalfa in Value.

Dry weather and hot winds will have
no terror for the Oklahoma farmer
who adopts the motto of Pigs and
Peanuts
The drought this season has demon
strated, says the Duncan Eagle, that
peanuts will thrive better during the
dry, hot season than even kafir corn,
and the peanuts have a still further
advantage in having far greater food
value than either corn or kafir.
The highest priced pork on the mar
ket, says the Oklahoma Farmer, is
from the peanut-fed hogs, and the ham
from peanut-fed hogs brings from 1C
to Is cents pound more than the
ham from corn-fed hogs.
The peanut hay will run from one
half to one ton to the acre, and is
almost the equal of alfalfa in feed
value. Farmers who raise peanuts and
hogs can have the hogs harvest the
crop if they desire to turn them into
the peanut field, or they can put the
peanuts, vine and all, with little corn
or kaf1r into a silo, which makes a
richer silage than either alone. Thou.
sands of farmers in Oklahoma need to
adopt the motto Of Pigs and Pea.
nuts"
The time to plan a pig and peanut
campaign is now. Splendid seed pea
nuts win be offered for sale soon. and
the farmer of Oklahoma who selects
high-class nuts for seed will be ready
in the spring to plant a crop that
never fails in Oklahoma.

DAIRYMEN AND FARMERS MUST RAISE. MORE DAIRY COWS

CIV. D. Nichols, Dairy Department
Kentucky College of Agriculture)
Our attention has been frequently
directed 10 that class of milk produc-
ers living near the outskirts of large
cities who follow the practice of buy
ing COWS when fresh, feeding them
until they no longer give profitable
amount of milk, at which time they
have become fat and then selling them
for beef. Not only has this been the
practice of city dairymen but in sec
tons more remote from the city many
dairymen have depended largely on
buying their COWS. Many have even
gone so far as to depend entirely upon
purchased cows to supply their dairy.
They have been encouraged in this by
the high price of veal calves, and have
gone to the extreme of selling off all
calves, both heifers and bulls, and
making no attempt whatever to raise
their own milk COWS. In the last few
years this plan has proven profitable
because beef prices were so high and
at milk cows sold for as much or more
than the same cows when fresh, ire

Alfalfa Hay for Cows.

Because of the high protein content,
alfalfa is especially valuable as feed
for dairy cows. for breeding animals
and for growing young stock. 1t is OF
considerable economic value when
grown and fed on the farm, as it takes
the place of high-priced protein-rich
concentrates, such as bran and cotton
seed meal. 1t is more economical, un-
der most conditions at least to feed It
as part ration either with corn OF
some carbohydrate roughage, as corn
slower or grass hay, rather than to
feed it alone.

may be placed near the kitchen range
and thus easily kept at the desired
temperature, without being very much
in the way
While it goes without saying that
more butter is obtained because all
the cream is taken from the milk and
kept in the best condition, it is equally
true that the product is uniformly
good. There is no variation.
In this way, if you can please Gus
toner one day, you can please him the
next, and this he soon discovers and
asks for your butter. Then, the dealer
who handles your butter soon learns
to guarantee it. He can sell it for
better price than the ordinary butter,
and since the last bit of gain is all
gain, the profits are thus very mate
| rally increased.
If you still wish to send the prod
ucts away to be manufactured, the
load to be hauled over bad roads is
very greatly lessened. Usually it is
not necessarily delivered so often; and
| in the colder weather, when there is
danger of freezing in transit, the small
can is again more easily managed.
The advantage of having the farm
skim milk to feed to the stock is OF
two fold value. The chilled milk
which is sure to come back from the
creamery being in no way equal in
/ feeding value to the fresh milk, which
even if reheated, still lacks in value
while it is increased in cost of pro
| duction.
! At every turn there is an independ
ence gained, and this is one of the
/ great things to the farmer. The more
he can plan to do his work, independ
ent of others and the weather, the less
J will be the friction, the more complete
the satisfaction.
1t is at the last end of the process
however, that the real profit stand:

with dairying, heavy ones, and after
these are met, the rest is gain. There
