GOOD FARM BUTTER MAKING
Greater Attention Should Be Given to
Details Concerning Factors
Affecting the Quality.
(By ]. KEITHLEY.l

(By j. KEITHLEY)
The following few brief instructions
will prove of great assistance to farm
butter makers:
Churn at a temperature that will
give a firm, fiaky granule in the but
ter. This temperature varies slightly
with the season, but ranges from 81
degrees to 62 degrees f. The use OF
a thermometer and intelligent obser-
walton, as result of few Cummings,
will enable the butter maker to deter
mine 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 25 to 80 minutes.
Use clear, pure water for washing
the butter. 1t should not be more
than three degrees colder or warmer
than the buttermilk. Use amount Of
water equal to that of the buttermilk.
In a barrel churn, reverse IL to Is
times in washing.
Weigh the granular washed butter
and salt at the rate of three-fourths
OuhSC " OhC OuhSC pei POuAOs DO
sure the salt is well pulverized and
sift it evenly over the granular butter
before any of the moisture is worked
out.
Work the butter sufficiently to dis
tribute salt without injuring the grain
or texture. Determine working by
1, appearance; 2, texture; 3, grittiness.
Butter, when sufficiently worked,
should present a firm, glossy appear
ance. The texture should resemble
the broken end of steel rod There
should be no grittiness due to the un-
evenly distributed or undissolved salt
This can be determined by taking a
small piece of butter between the teeth
and biting into it repeatedly; any grit
tiness will soon be observed. INSULT

KEEP SALT HANDY FOR COWS
courages Heavy Milk Flow by
Promoting Digestion.

Experiments have proved the aver
age milk COW requires about an ounce
of salt per day. Heavy mixers should
have more. Keeping salt where the
dairy cows can reach it at all times
maintains their good health and en-
courages heavy milk yield by pro-
noting thorough digestion and assim-
ilation and having a cooling effect
on the whole system of the animals, at
the same time making it easier to
bring butter of a superior flavor and
color at churning time.

Greenland.

Greenland is governed by the Green
land commission ut Copenhagen, Den
mark. 1t was first settled by a band
Of Norsemen under Erik the Red, who
gave 1t It's name. in 9S5. A bishopric
was founded there in the twelfth CEN
fury by the king of Norway, and about
1860 1t was constituted state Of Nor
way. There then followed a blank OF
200 years in Greenland's history, due
to climatic disasters. but beginning
with the Danish settlement of 1721 the
country has belonged to Denmark.

Ancient concrete.

That the Romans were very familiar
with concrete and gave consideration
to its use examination of the concrete
work In the forum clearly shows. Their
concrete contained generally only two
kinds of stone. travertine and selcie'
In equal parts. Selcie Is q hard, closely
knit rock. very similar to our bluestone
or trap rock in color as well as quality.
Travertine is volcanic rock not 30
hard as selcie, considerably lighter In
color, and was desirable on account or
its porosity, which insured good BOND
with the cement,sy In all the Roman
work the combination Of the travertine
and the selcie is clearly distinguish
able.

SOME GRAIN Is NECESSARY
Cow Will Get Through Winter in Ex-
ceIIent Condition II Given Few
Ears Of Corn Each Day.

The COW that Is to become a moth
er should not be allowed to get poor
and weak during the winter months.
1t is practically impossible to get such
COW through the rigo-s of winter
in good condition without a grain feed.
She may not need a great amount of
grain, II she has plenty of forage that
is nutritious, but she will need four
or five ears of corn two or three times
q day. Then she will get through the
winter In fine shape and have good
flesh and plenty of strength at calv.

cient working is generally shown by
a notified appearance in color on the
cut surface. This is largely due to an
uneven distribution of salt. This re-
suits in salty condition and Injuries

butter makers should be to produce a
high-grade article that is uniform
week after week in flavor and compo-
sition. This can be done by careful
methods in ripening, sailing and work

curious relaaraph Lines.

The most original telegraph line In
the world once extended from La Plaz,
the capital of Bolivia, to the neighbor-
ing town OF Oruro, distance of about
100 miles. There are no growing trees
In this part Of the world, and wood Of
any kind is so rare that the telegraph
poles were made Of the same material
as the natives household furniture
dried mud. The pillars were built on
stone foundations and measured about
Eve feet square at the base, with
tapering height of fifteen feet They
were placed about 800 feet apart. An
other curious telegraph line was con
structed in Uganda by British en-
gineer, who transported growing trees
to the roadside and used them as poles
because he could not find any dead"
wood that would withstand the raw
ages Of the white ants. In Dutch
East India growing trees are also
turned to account in this manner, but
there a wire Is stretched across the
road between the trees on either side
and the actual telegraph line suspend
ed down the center.

The jumping powers Of heas have
been much exaggerated, according to
a bulletin on these insects issued by
the department OF agriculture. The
species known as the human flea
Pulex irrltuns) is probably the best
jumper. According to Mitzmain, the
maximum horizontal distance this spe-
cies can jump is thirteen inches and
the maximum vertical distance less
than eight inches.
The question of the fiea's jumping
powers Is Of importance in connection
with the spread Of bubonic plague and
other diseases of which this insect Is
the carrier. The Indian plague com
mission, which has Investigated the
habits of the Indian rat flea, finds its
maximum horizontal jump to be only
FIVE inches, while Mitzmain records the
maximum height to which 1t can jump
as three and one-elghth inches. One
species Of flea, the 'sticktlght." Is near
ly incapable OF jumping.

Statues were n decorative element Of
which the Florentine garden architect
made expensive use, At first few
antique busts were placed along the
parapet of the terrace or under the
central loggla, but ere long Greek gods
and heroes, fauns and naiads were
seen at the end of every alley. while
giants and caryatides were introduced
to support walls and porticoes.
One great charm of renaissance gar
dens was the skillful manner in which
nature and art were blended together.
The formal design Of the giardino Sc
greto agreed with the straight lines of
the house, and the walls, with their
clipped hedges, led on to the wilder,
freer growth of woodland and mead
ow, while the dense shade Of the bosco
supplied an effective contrast to the
sunny spaces Of lawn and flower bed.
The ancient practice Of cutting box
trees into fantastic shapes known to
the Romans us the topiary art, was
largely restored In the fifteenth cen
fury and became an essential part Of
