SEPARATOR is USEFUL
Invention Has Helped to Revolu-
tionize Dairy Business.
One Great Advantage Is Capitalization
Of ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Plant

Fast Disappearing.

CBy ]. NJ CADwALLADER. Louisiana
Experiment Station.)
The cream separator is one of the
great inventions that has helped to
revolutionize the dairy business. Its
effect has been especially noticeable
upon the butter industry. Its ten
dency has been to lower the quality of
butter but this is not due to any fault
in the principle of the cream separa-
tor but chiefly to the lack of proper
care Of the separator and in han
ding the cream. One great advantage
resulting from the use of the sepa-
rator is Capitalization of the dairy
business, and the whole-milk plant
and skimming stations are disappear
ing.
Milk should be separated at a tenn
perature of IS to 80 degrees and
separation can be accomplished best
as soon as the milk is drawn from
the cow, for at that time it has
temperature near SO degrees. There
may be some makes of separators
which will separate at lower tenn
perature than others, but the same
machine will do more efficient work
at a higher temperature.
Since bacteria are the cause of the
souring of milk and cream and they
have a luxuriant growth at high
temperature. especially the undesira.
BILE kinds, the cream should be cooled
as soon as possible to so degrees or
lower. preferably 30 degrees F. This
can be accomplished by passing the
cream over special apparatus made
for that purpose or, in case there is
only a small amount of cream. it may
be placed in a tin vessel of some
kind and this vessel placed in cold
running water. or ice water is prefer
able. All containers or utensils which
come in contact with the milk should
be washed thoroughly with boiling
water and allowed to sun and air
when not in use.
The mornings cream should be
cooled to the same temperature as the
evenings cream and then they can be
mixed without injury to the keeping

In the displays of new millinery that
are of paramount interest just now
women complain that the great variety
in style and design in new hats is be-
wildering. There are so many shapes
TO choose from, Shall the hat be
made of velvet or hatter's plush or
felt or velour or fur or selected from
among the innumerable combinations
of these and other fabrics? What is
the wisest choice in season not domi-
mated by few styles?
Such a season leaves the individual
to her own resources in making
choice. But it affords her a chance to
exercise fine judgment in suiting her
millinery to her own particular type.
There are few freakish styles, in spite
of this wonderful variety in hats, and
there is hat for every face.
One cannot go wrong in choosing
velvet or any of the materials men,
toned. Colors are dark and rich. and
trimmings correspond. Metallic laces
and braids, elaborate beadwork, silk
and velvet flowers land those covered

hats of beautiful and sedate colors
that form the best of backgrounds for
them. Fur and the most elaborate and

THE SPHINX OF ITALY

Signor Sidney Sonnino, Italy's
minister for foreign affairs, is known
in the Italian press as "the Sphinx"
He has twice been premier and has
three times declined the honor, he has
been minister of finance, has served
in the diplomatic corps at Paris, Wen
ma, Madrid, and has sat in parliament
"a years.
With this varied experience in
governmental affairs, he was sought
by the king to guide the cabinet in the
crisis brought about by the outbreak
of war. Sonnino declined, fearing, it
is said, that he would not be able to
command the necessary support in
parliament. He has always declared
he belonged neither to the right, nor
to the left" meaning that he adopted
no policy Of open support or opposi-
ton to the government. He is a lib
eral.
He is an exceedingly cultured
man, good classical scholar and
distinguished commentator of Dante.
His knowledge of state affairs is compl

of the country. 1t is reasonable to
estimate that not more than so per

everywhere are talking the desirable

increased production of mules means
decreased production of horses as a
producing proposition. - Twentieth

HIGHLY HONORED WOMAN

For the first time in it's history
Columbia university conferred the hon.
orary degree of LII. ID. on a woman
recently. She is Miss Louisa Lee
Schuyler and she was born in New

INVENTOR OF SUBMARINE

If the war continues for two years
England will have to use cargo-car-

Simon Lake, submarine inventor and

Captain Lake, whose company is
constructing undersea boats for our

of fuel, made by the G-3 of the United
