IMPORTANT ARTICLE OF FOOD
Butter Is Three -Times-a-Day Necessity on Tables-cleanIiness 10
 Great Essential.

Good butter, next to good bread, is the most important article of food, and as it Is three-times-a-day ne cessity on our tables. it's proper mak- ing is of great importance. Successful butter-making depends most of all on cleanliness of stables, cows. mixers and pails, along with a clean, we'll ventilated dairy room and utensils. Everyone needs fat, and butter Is the most wholesome as well as most agree able way of taking 1t into the system.
 Cream absorbs whatever ooor sur rounds 1t and then passes 1t on to the butter, so milk should not be kept in the kitchen where cooking Is done. and especially If the men of the family have the habit of smoking there. as this gives 1t a very disagreeable taste. Butter made from well-ripened cream has the best flavor. and to obtain this ripening before the cream Is so old as to become rancid, "starter" of tablespoonful or two of thick sour milk is usually added to the new milk when set to raise.
 Butter churned from perfectly sweet cream has less flavor. but some people prefer it. It is a mistake to churn butter at too high a temperature in order to make 1t come quickly. for 1t contains more buttermilk, Is apt to be greasy and pale in color. If the cream must be kept for several days before churning, it should be in cool place. If for any reason the churn is not per fectly sweet after thorough washing and scalding, rinse 1t well with cold lime water.
