When the Worlds All New.

1t is the same old world that we
greeted on New Years morning. But
somehow it looked so different. The
invisible dividing line between last
year and this has made possible a
new angle of vision. The grip of old
passions seems to have lost it's hold
and a new purpose, partly old, partly
new, throbs for recognition. A gen.
tleness appears in faces thought to
be hard and cynical. Happiness
sparkles in the eyes of sad and lonely
folk. A sort of introduction is need
ed to oneself. For tie dawn of the
new year makes possible fresh at
tack on the age-weary problems,
another attempt to produce the best
instead of the good, and new walk
down by-ways of human experience
where one may be good Samaritan
with no eye but his to see and
understand. The world is all new on
New Years morning my world,
your world, our world-to make over
for the Kingdom. - Ralph Welles

FLAVOR AND AROMA
IN MAKING BUTTER
Quality Depends Largely or
Changes Made While Cream
Is in Ripening Process.

BY the ripening Of cream is meant
the changes it undergoes from the
time of separation until it is added to
the churn. Upon these changes de-
ponds very largely the quality of but
ter as regards texture and flavor. The
temperature at which cream is held
determines the firmness or texture,
while the flavor is dependent upon the
by-products from the bacterial growth
The purpose of ripening cream is
fundamentally that Of giving the but
ter the desired flavor and aroma, but
in addition it increases the ease and
efficiency Of churning. Cream is rip
ened in one of two ways:
First, it sours or ripens as result
of the action of bacteria which are
normally present in milk or cream;
or,
Second, it ripens as a result Of &C
ton of certain kinds of bacteria which
are added in what is termed start

CRATE-FED POULTRY
is MOST DESIRABLE
Fat Is Distributed Throughout
Tissues of Entire Body, Thus
Making Flesh Tender.

Unfattened chickens are hard and
muscular, especially If they have
been permitted to range at will. Pen
fattened birds-confned in small
quarters and fed heavily on corn
are an improvement, but their fat is
usually deposited in Jumps in the
abdomen and j., layers on the mites,
tines, where much of it is wasted in
dressing and cooking.
In crate-fed stock the fat is distrib-
uted throughout the tissues Of the en-.
tire body, thus making the flesh ten
der and sweet. This is the secret OF
the high quality produced by this proc
ess.
Anyone can successfully fatten
chickens in this manner if he will pay
attention to details. The work may
be conducted in a small way by the
individual producer or consumer. or
on a large scale by the commercial
fattener. No one has a monopoly OF
the business; there are opportunities
for all.

PROPER ATTENTION
TO DAIRY UTENSILS
All Pals and Cans Should Be
Heavily Timed and Seams
Covered With Solder.

BY P. BENNETCH, West Virginia Ex-
pertinent Station.)
One of the most frequent sources OF
contamination in milk lies in the i'm
proper care of utensils. All milk pals
and cans should be heavily timed and
all seams covered up with solder so
that there are no lodging places for
dirt. or crevices that are hard to clean.
Rusty utensils should never be used
in handling milk, since is is impossl-
BILE to clean them thoroughly. Al!
dippers, pals, strainers, cans, etc.,
should be rinsed with cold water to
which some washing powder has been
added. In the washing process brush
should be used rather than a cloth,
as the cloth soon absorbs the milk,
and becomes filthy. After washing,
the utensils should be rinsed thorough
ly with steaming hot water. Do not
dry them with a cloth; instead, in
cline them on clean shelf over pegs,
so that the water will drain off read
lily. If the utensils are allowed to
drain out of doors the shelf or rack
should be at least four feet from the
ground and in location where they
are not exposed to dust.
The Importance of the sterilizing
process, while well understood by most
people, is quite frequently overlooked.
While milk vessels may look perfectly
clean after having been mashed, they
may still be contaminated with bac-
terra. These bacteria can be destroyed
only by proper sterilization. such as is
obtained by exposing the vessels to
boiling temperature for some length
of time. Where only a small amount
of milk is handled steam is very often
not available and in such cases the
simplest method of steriliZing is to
place the vessels in boiling water for
five minutes.
Every farmers wife knows the
germicidal effects of sunshine, and
takes advantage of it by placing her
fruit jars where they are exposed to
the sun. The same is true of milk
vessels, but too often they are placed
in the sun where they are also ex-
posed to dust and flies.

Lightness and sparkle are featured
in the fashions of the hour in much
of the finery employing tulle, light
laces and nets embroidered with rail-
lettes.
Older women have the privilege OF
appropriating to themselves the hand
soonest laces and richest fabrics. Be-
sides, they may look to intricacy and
beauty of design for effects more per
manently fascinating than those &C
complished with airy tulle and glitter
ing spangles. A blouse of lace, illus
trated in the picture above, portrays
a combination of laces with green
satin ribbon and band embroidery in
green black and gold that is rich and
effective, and distinctly a design for
the mature woman.
A foundation bodice is made. for
this blouse, of narrow val insertions
in two patterns. They are set to-
gether in alternating rows. the edges
overcast or whipped" together by
hand. The bodice and sleeves are
made separately, and the sleeves set
in. The bands of insertion are ex-
tended into a high collar bound at the
top with fold of green satin. a
band of green satin ribbon. five inches
wide. is set across the front of this
foundation bodice. just below the bust
line, terminating at each side at the
underarm seam.

Although a better combination than
the well-tailored shirtwaist and the
well-fitting cloth skirt, for business
wear. is yet undiscovered, the one
piece frock is just as appropriate. 1t
is sometimes more practical than light
colored waists for wear in the smoke
laden air Of cities, inasmuch as it
saves their constant laundering.
But the business girl is not to be
deprived of the beauty of crisp and
clearly white near her face, in the
one-piece gown. All the models shown
are either made to be worn with col
lar and chemisette Of sheer, washable
materials, or are designed with COT
lars that allow the introduction of
turnovers of white. A good design to
be worn with high collar and chemi-
settle is pictured here. The launder,
ing of this bit of neckwear is an easy
matter, and when net is used for max
ing it, ironing may even be dispensed
with. Shirtwaists of plain or plaid
silk are similarly designed and worn
with cloth tailored skirts.

Sunshine is an amazingly potent
germicide for the farm hOusekeeper
and in the dairy and stables. The
practice of exposing cooking and 9TH
er utensils used in connection with
food to direct sunlight makes use of
this fact, although comparatively few
appreciate exactly the work done by
the sun in this regard. Probably only
those who are acquainted with tests
which have actually been made real
ize how quickly sunshine kills disease
germs exposed to it. Hence the fol
lowing tests may be generally instruc-
tive and interesting, says the United
States department of agriculture news
letter.
A pasty, creamy mass Of tubercu-
lous material, which was proved to
contain uncountable numbers of viru-
lent tubercle bacilli, was obtained
from a tuberculous cow ard spread
in thin smooth translucent layers on
sheets of glass, pieces of wood, and
strips of muslin. Some of the sheets
of glass, pieces of wool, and strips of
muslin were then placed outdoors on
a moderately warm, clear, calm day
where the sun could shine On them,
and an equal number were placed in
a dark room. After Is minutes ex-
posture to the sun, the tuberculous
material on the glass, wood, and mus
lin still contained large numbers of liv-
ing, virulent tubercle bacilli, which
we're proved to be fully capable OF
causing tuberculosis, but after 80 min
utes exposure to the sun no living
tubercle bacilli could be found; every
test that could be made proved that
they were all dead.
Similar tests with quite large opaque
masses of tuberculous material, larg-
er and denser than any tuberculous

that the bacilli in such masses on
glass are still alive after 4, but en-
tirely dead in less than hours. and
still alive in the material Oh wood
and muslin after S, but dead in less
than 16 hours.
The tuberculous material in thin lay
ers on glass, wood, and muslin, kept
in a dark room, was proved to con-
tain fully virulent, living tubercle ba-
cilli after 80 days. The contrast is
remarkable, tubercle bacilli of the
same kind of material, dying i'm a
smaller number of minutes in the sun
shine than the number of days they
remained alive in dark room.
AS most varieties of disease germs
are more easily destroyed by germi
cides than tubercle bacilli, and as tu-
bercle bacilli, in the thin layers in
which they are likely to adhere to
clothing, blankets, rugs. draperies.
furniture, walls, floors, ETC., are killed
by the rays of the sun in less than
half an hour, though hey remain aliva
in dark places a month and longer. it
is reasonable to draw the following
conclusions:
(a) As a general sanitary principle
it is desirable that all dwellings, sta
bles, ETC., should be SO constructed
that an abundance of sunshine car
reach their interiors.
(b) AS general protective meas
ure against disease germs, it is an
excellent practice TO expose uten'
sils for handling milk. and milk cans
after they have been cleaned, to di.
rect sunlight, and to hang or spread
wearing apparel, blankets, bedding.
rugs, horse blankets, etc, periodically
where the sun can shine on all parts
of them.
