Pare rhubarb and pack it in jars, first
cutting it into small pieces. Then cover
the top of each jar with a piece of thin
cloth tied on to keep the fruit in and
set the jar in a pailful of water. Let
it stay for half an hour to bring all the
air bubbles to the top. then seal and
keep in a cool, dark place.

SWIMMING THE CREAM.
The Hand Separators More Economical
Than Gravity Methods.

The Hand Separators More Economical

way of handling milk, not in any one

tried oft, also many different kinds OF
separators. The summary follows:
The use of the hand separator in the
place Of the gravity systems OF cream
ing will effect a saving of $3.50 to 81
worth of butter rat from one cow in
one year
With the hand separator richer
cream aisd Il better quality OF cream
and skimmilk can be produced than
with the pan systems.
OF the gravity methods the deep
setting system Is the least objection
able. 1t produces a more complete
separation and better quality OF
cream than either the shallow pan Or
the water dilution system.
ANY neglect to clean the separator
thoroughly after each separation re

SLIPPING MOTOR GEARS.
Refusal of Wheeis to Stay In Mesh
Due to Several Causes.

Refusal of Wheeis to Stay In Mesh
Due to Several Causes.
Occasionally one or other Of the in
direct gears is prone to slip out of en-
gaEelnent when the car is hill climbing.
The natural tendency of the driver is
to put the gear into mesh again after
a mOmentary jab at the clutch. and he
generally makes very bad gear scrap
ing job of it. However. the point to
urge is that when any one pair of gears
refuses to stop In mesh the matter
should be looked into at once. because
If it be allowed to continue the teeth
very soon become more or less tapered
or wedge shaped. and there is no
remedy except new gear wheel. or
probably pair of wheels. Of course
the trouble can always be momentarily
overcome by holding the gear lever in
position while climbing a hill, but it is
most awkward to have to devote one
hand to this job.
AS rule slipping out Of mesh be-
gins through some dirt getting into the
gear changing mechanism in the box or

selector rods are not entirely incased.
Generally the cause is quite simple,
though little pad of hard grease
which has formed in the pocket behind
a selector rod may give a lot Of trou-
BILE before the cause is discovered.
Sometimes. too, the trouble is entirely
external: the foorboard may prevent
the lever when in one of the speed
notches from coming right back. or
the seat cushion may foul the lever.
The first thing to do is to take up the
floor boards and open the gear box to
see whether the gears mesh properly
or not. but it will almost certainly be-
found that when there is a tendency
for gear to jump out only half the
width of the teeth is in engagement.
Even if threequarters of the width Of
the teeth slides into engagement it is
not enough: tendency to tapering is
developed, and new gears will be
needed.

The remedy recommended by the de
partment is to hold the afternoon milk.
properly cooled. through the cooler
hours of the night and ship it the next
morning with the morning milk, also
properly cooled. without mixing the
two. 1t is OF course essential to this
plan that the train schedules be adapt
ed to it. but it is felt that when the i'm
portance OF the change Is fully reco9-
nized this difficulty will be overcome.
Such procedure in cooling and handling
would materially reduce the possibility
of sour milk reaching the markets.
Shippers are also urged by the de-
partment to see that the milk is thor
oughly cooled as an important step in
keeping its meteorological count low.
