BUTTER DILUTED?
FEDERAL OFFICERS
SEIZE 700 POUNDS

Seizure of $50 pounds of butter was
made at Madison yesterday by federal
authorities and held pending an inves-
tigation by the federal chemists at
Washington as to its water content.
The seizure was made upon the theory
that the butter contains some 19 per
cent of water when the law prescribes
limit of Is per cent. The butter was
seized in the warehouses of the Ken
nedy Dairy Co. and the Zillisch Pure
Milk Co. at Madison, but was not made
by them, being the product of the r.
Else & Son creamery at Mcfarland.
SpIuttered in Pan
Suspicion that adulterated butter was
being sold in Madison first came to the
attention of Dairy and Food Commits =
sioner Weigle when complaint was
made to him by the manager of cafe :
terra that the butter which she was
buying could not be used on the pan
cake griddle, it ''spluttered" so badly
Commissioner Weigle suspected an
over abundance of " eter and notified
Inspector Fred Rennebonm of Madison
city food and milk inspection depart
ment, who secured samples of the sus-
pected products Analyses were made
| by both Mr.. Kennel ohm and the state
chemists and the same result found, /
per cent of moisture content. Com
missioner Weigle notified the federal
authorities and yesterday Inspector
Harry Biddings of Milwaukee, repre-
senting the federal revenue department,
came here and made the seizure of the
butter on hand at the two places, hold
ing it pending analyses at Washington.
The penalties are severe. R. Else &
Son are suspected, they owning several
creameries.

WINTERING sTocKERs.
SiIage and cottonseed Meal an Eco
nomicaI Ration For Cattle.

W. hdhlOfV
For wintering stocker cattle a ration
Of corn silage and cottonseed meal has
proved very economical. Two pounds
Of the meal combined with as much
corr silage as the cattle will eat will
give a small gain in weight. Straw
and other roughage which cannot 9TH
erwise be used advantageously may be
fed with the silage and ~cottonseed
meal. When the cattle are put on
pasture cottonseed cake, which is the
same as the meal in substance, a be
used proftably as a supplementary
feed.
CottOnseed meal Is also recommend
ed as a winter ration for the breeding
herd. About two pounds of the meal
should be given to the breeding cows
per day, together with some silage,
slower and other roughage. This will
prove an economical ration and one
which will leave the cows In good con-
dition in the spring. The bull also
may be fed from two to three pounds
Of cottonseed meal combined with
some other concentrated feed, but
some authorities hold that 1t Is not
well to continue this feed too long, as
1t is believed to have injurious effects
upon the breeding powers.-United
States Department Of Agriculture.

colt,s Feet In Summer.

Aside from feeding. probably the
most important consideration in devel-
oping growing horses is the care Of the
feet, says DR.. c. w. McCampbell Of the
Kansas Agricultural college. Many OF
the poor feet seer in horses are the re-
suit Of neglect Of the feet while these
horses were young. The toes should
not be allowed to grow abnormally
long and iii shaped, as serious trouble
may result from cracking or breaking
Of the hoof. Neither should the heels
be,allowed to become high, narrow, or
rolled. II these Ill shapes are not cor
rected the feet, and, to some extent, the
legs, respond to these influences, and
the horse natures with poorly shaped
feet and often poorly set legs. Beware
Of thrush and kindred troubles. II the
stables are kept clean and sanitary
there will be very little trouble from
this source. Careful attention to these
details viii help greatly in developing
big, well shaped. strong, healthy feet.

Hog Cholera Diagnosis.

The Importance of a correct diagno-
sis where hog cholera Is suspected can
not be overestimated, says DR.. H. Pres
ton Hoskins Of the Minnesota expert
ment station. Hog cholera serum ad-
ministered to q herd thought to be in
fected with cholera, but in reality suf-
fering from some other disease, usual
ly means time and effort wasted and,
If the treated hogs keep on dying, dis
trust of the run treatment. Except
in very unusual cases either a positive
or negative diagnosis of cholera can
be made If there is opportunity for a
post mortem examination. In doubt
full cases a post mortem is always
proper.
Just as soon as 1t is noticed that a
hog is sick it should be separated from
the herd and kept isolated until the
exact nature of the trouble can be de-
termined.
Diseases which are most frequently
mistaken for hog cholera are intestinal
worms, various digestive disturbances,
lung worms, Inflammation of the bow
els and necrobaciIlosis. The last named
disease is caused by the same germ
that is responsible for sore mouth and
bull nose of pigs.

CELERY FOR FALL AND WINTER
The Soil Should Be Made the Richest
Spot In the Garden.

The Soil Should Be Made the Richest
Spot In the Garden.
Make the soil for your celery patch
the richest spot in the garden, says the
Country Gentleman. The more rapid
and luxuriant the growth the better
will be the quality md the more GER
tain the crop will be to come through
all the seasons ~leftovers in the way of
plant foods. There are probably odds
and ends Of fertilizers. the compost
heap that has accumulated during the
spring and summer, the chicken ma
nure and some ashes. In addition to
this general hash of plant foods give
a good dressing of high grade fertilizer
for the last curse and rake 1t thor
oughly into the soil.
Do not be afraid of getting the soil
too rich. Any Of these deposits in the
soil bank that the celery does not draw
upon for use will be available for early
spring crops Of green onions, lettuce
and cabbage.
Equally important are good. sturdy,
well developed plants that have al
ready begun to get their shape, are
easy to plant and are ready to grow
right on. Size at the base of the stalks
rather han height should be the basis
upon which to judge plants. A spin
ding plant will waste a good deal Of
time in readjusting itself to a better
form, If II ever does so.
If you have your W plants growing
In q fat or in a frame cut the tops
back severely a week or so before
planting. 1t is well also to keep them
| rather on the dry side until just a day
or two before planting. This stimu-
| lates the growth of the feeding root
hairs which take up the plant food
! solutions from the soil, and as many OF
| these roots are destroyed in trans
| planting even with care the more there
are available the sooner the plants will
| become established.

England Needs 100000 oo. 900.

London, Aug. 29.-"In this national
crisis expenditures, both public and
private, should be rigidly curtailed,
and at the same time new taxation
should forthwith be imposed upon all
classes OF the people In order that
when the war shall be brought to a
triumphant conclusion the nation may
enter the period of restoration with its
financial power impaired to the least
possible extent
The foregoing resolution was adopt
ed at a meeting of the leading bankers
and financiers Of London.
Harold Cox, well known as a polit-
ical economist, addressed the meeting.
He said that the loan would hardly
carry the country over until Christmas
and that personally he did not think
the war would end without England
having to borrow $1O,O0O.OOO,00O. Al
together the interest on this. Mr.. Cox
said, would be $3.50. 1900, which,
with the sinking fund. would be In
creased to s55O.OOO.OOO, and another
500. 100000 would have to be added
for the frs two years after the war
for pensions. The new taxes imposed
last November, Mr.. Cox added, pro-
duced 1915, OO0, 900, so that many more
new taxes would have to be imposed

importers at the meeting was n Of
indignation that Americans cannot
gain possession ever of the goods con
tracted for in Germany prior to the
declaration of the British blockade. II
is represented that $30,OO0,OO0 to $780,
100000 of imports bought before the
blockade are held up In Rotterdam
awaiting shipment. Contracts Were
made (. o. b. at German and Austrian
factories. and for a considerable pro-
portion of these wares cash is said to
have been paid or payment legally OBJ
ligated. Importers In turn have sold
part Of these wares to their American
customers, who hold them liable for
nondeliveries.
The German dye situation is not az
fected by the importers protest since
Germany will not sell dyes for export
unless guaranteed return cargoes of
cotton. The principal lines affected by
the holdup at Rotterdam are hosiery,
gloves, underwear, velvets and other
dry goods, glassware, toys and novel
ties.

NOTES OF THE HOG LOT.

Regularity in feeding fattening hogs
is very important.
An uncomfortable, suffering pig can
not be q profitable one.
The pigs and the light porkers should
go to the market early.
Getting the most of swine is nothing
less han putting the most into them.
Do not sell the SOW that raised a big
spring litter and sucked them well.
Pure air, clean water, clean food and
a clean place to sleep make hogs profit
able.
Dark houses are no healthful. Let
in the light and keep your porkers
healthy.
Do not worry much about disease In
hogs. Try to keep them right and you
will be troubled but little.
Constipation is very rare in a herd Of
fattening hogs that have all the clean
water they will drink.
Hogs know to the minute when feed
ing time comes and If not fed will fret
off part Of their previous gain.
One thing that cannot be overlooked
in the growing of pigs and the fatten-
ing of hogs is pure clean water for
them to drink.

Lakes Prophecy.

Washington. Aug. 29.-According to
Simon Lake, inventor of the even Keel
submarine, undersea boats will even
tually run across the Atlantic, carry
ing freight and passengers.
Submarines of 5000 miles cruising
radius are now a reality" he said in a
recent interview. Half OF that radius
is enough to carry them across the At
lantic. New methods of conserving
the air supply and food supply mean
that passengers will be safer in the
undersea boats than in liners which
are subject to the fate that overlook
the Lusitania.
"Of course these freight carrying
submarines would not be as speedy.
Neither would they travel all the dis
lance under water. But whenever In
danger, whenever within the line of an
enemy submarine Gordon, they would
take the undersea route.
America has done more than any
one else in submarine invention and

Alliance atCurrentT Topics and Events

Daniels Tells Of Plans to Improve Navv.
Washington, Aug. 30-Josephus DAN
iels, secretary of the navy. has issued
the following statement:
We are now studying what has been
learned by the European war that will
constitute the best guide for the larger
naval program. The outstanding les
sons are three:
First.-The value of the submarine.
The last congress authorized twice as
many submarines as any previous con-
gress and also authorized the building
Of three seagoing submarines larger
than any nation has yet constructed.
We are building one submarine In the
navy yard at Portsmouth, N. H., and
must build others In navy yards, thus
securing competition between govern
ment plants and private construction
companies. We are. expecting to get
better batteries. Two have already
been ordered from Edison and will be
shortly installed, one In an old and one
In a new submarine. Naval experts
and civilians are trying to improve the
motors, which are now difficult to OBJ
tain. We are planning for new subma-
rine bases ashore and for new tenders
for submarines. The perfection of the
submarine and the construction of a
large number of additional ones a
be said to be receiving most earnest
consideration by naval experts and ma
val statesmen.
Second.-The European wal has en-
phasized the value of afr craft as u
naval aid. The last congress recognized
the Importance of air craft and gave US
100000 TO begin a feet of scouts In
the air. We have established at the
abandoned navy yard at Pensacola an
aeroplane station with school for In
struction and shops to repair machines,
and the construction officers will soon
have completed the plans for the con-
struction of our aeroplanes at Pensa-
cola. Important experiments are being
made at the navy yard In Washing
ton. l had made contracts to buy n.y.
d~roaeroplanes In Germany and In
France just before war was declared.
These cannot be secured now. But we
have placed orders also with home
companies and are buying all types
that are suitable for our service made
by American manufacturing concerns.
Third.-The need of fast cruisers has
been emphasized. The general board
and construction officers are now busy
discussing the character of fast cruis-
ers and battle cruisers. Our policy In
the navy hitherto has been to sacrifice
speed to armor and guns. Now we see
he need, IL necessary, of sacrificing
armor to speed. We must have ships
that In heavy seas can make forty
knots. The types are yet to be deter
mined upon.
These are the big things the big war
has emphasized as the immediate need
In our naval program.

$4,000 Men In krupp's Works.

Essen, Aug. 30.-Krupp's is more
than the greatest war factory. 1t is
the mightiest single industrial %organiza-
ton that has ever existed. Never in
any Industrial center has there been
anything like the stupendous concen-
trated activity that now reigns in Es-
sen, the Westphalian city that has
grown up round the great works, says
Reynolds Weekly of London. Essen is
Newcastle and Sheffield and Barrow-in-
Furness rolled into one, and more.
Before the war the company en-
ployed more than 10000 men About
10000 were engaged In the gigantic
steel works at Essen, where the AZ
centimeter monsters come from, and
where daily there streams forth a tre-
mendous volume Of guns and munitions
for Germany's armies. Ten thousand
men were digging for coal In their
mines in Germany. Fifteen thousand
toiled al their rolling mills at Amen
and Grusen and the blast furnaces Of
Rheinhausen, Duisburg. Neuwied and
Fingers. An army Of 1000 was engaged
In their shipbuilding yard at Kiel. and
5000 miners dug ore in Spain.
Day and night In Essen work goes
on without ceasing. In the great works
spread we 1900 acres, 235 of them
under roof, at least $4,000 men toll in
shifts of eight hours each. Some six
ty factories make up the organization.
Forty miles of standard railway link
them together and carry their products
out. Thirty miles Of narrow lines are
required as auxiliary for the shops.
More than $50 miles Of cable and wire
and over 600 telephone stations and
twenty telegraph stations are needed to
facilitate communication throughout
the works. There are more than 300
steam boilers to generate the steam for
the 1900 different machines and 1924
electric motors at work.

ing bad days, and let out to drink only
pure water that is warmed. In sum-
mer they are on pasture day and night.
Before milking we wash and wipe
the udders and TANKS. The milk Is
separated Immediately after milking
and the cream Is cooled IS soon as
possible. We never put warm cream
with cool cream. We churn every
other day. We Use a dairy thermom-
eter all the time. In summer we put
In ice to cool cream to about 80 de-
grees, anc in winter we add hot water
to make 1t about 60 degrees. When
our cream is ripening we stir often SO
as to make the ream smooth and even.
We use a barrel churn, which is
scalded three times before and after
each using. When the butter reaches
a granular condition the buttermilk
Is drawn or and the butter Is washed
In water until the water drawn of is
clear. The butter is now taken from
the churn and sailed, allowing n
of salt to a pound of butter.
The butter is let stand until the salt
Is dissolved and then 1t is worked and
put In one pound rolls and let stand
overnight in refrigerator. The next
morning each roll is placed In parch-
ment paper and is then ready for the
customers.
Nothing is kept in our milk house
. but milk and cream, and In the re-
frigerator nothing but ream and but
ter, otherwise doors would quickly be
taken up by the butter and cream,
thus tainting both. Our milk pals are
washed, summed and scalded very
thoroughly. The separator is washed
both morning and evening and also
summed during the bright days.
