BETTER QUALITY OF CHEESE
Principal Cause of Sourness Is Use o.
Overripe Milk-Condition Can
Be Prevented.

Much can be done at the farm in
helping to produce only the best quail
ity of cheese, which will command the
highest price, give complete satisfac
ton to the best class of trade, and pre-
vent loss to the cheese factory.
During the summer one of the most
common complaints from the trade is
due to sour or acid cheese. The prin-
cipaI cause of sour cheese is the use
of oyerripe milk, Although milk may
be ripened too far before the whey Is
drawn in the cheesemaklng process by
an inexperienced cheesemaker, much
of it is Overripe when brought from
the farm to the factory. The most
successful cheesemakers, as rule, are
those who have secured the co-opera-
ton of their patrons In the care and
delivery of their milk to the factory il
first-class condition.

LACK IN MINERAL NUTRlMENT
)sirymen Advised to Feed Cows Ma
teriaIs Rich In Calcium Mag
nesium and Phosphorus.

Dairy cows fed the usual winter RI
lions cannot produce large milk yields
without loss of minerals from their
skeletons, writes DIR. e. y. Forbes of
the Ohio experiment station, basing
his statement upon recent investiga-
tons of the department of nutrition.
From his results he advises dairymen
to give the high-producing COW feeds
rich in minerals. especially calcium,
magnesium and phosphorus. A grad
ual shrinkage in milk yield or a fail
ure to breed may be due to mineral
depletion, he continues.
In his experiments different rations
varying in mineral contents were fed
to heavy-milking HOlsteins. More
calcium, magnesium and phosphorus

DRYING OFF HEAVY MIXERS
High-Produeinu Animals Are Difficult
to HandIe-First Step is to
Change Cows Feed.

The customary method of drying of
the average dairy COW is simply to
omit every other milking until the milk
flow diminishes, and then skip still
more milkings till 1t stops entirely.
Sometimes the process will require
two or three weeks, but usually less.
A COW producing less than ten pounds
Of milk daily may be dried Off any
time, without injurious results, simply
by stopping milking.
High-producing cows are more diff
ncult to handle In this respect and
some dairymen claim IL is impossible
to get their best cows to go dry. The
first step to dry off an animal produc-
ing 20 pounds of milk a day or more
is to change the feed. If she Is on
pasture, remove her to dry feedlot.
If she has been receiving alfalfa or
clover hay, give her timothy or sim
liar nonsucculent feed. In winter
time take away the grain.
Then milk at irregular intervals and
the flow will soon decrease. At the
end of week ii will fall off about
five pounds, and In few days more
milking may be stopped entirely. The
uddef may fill up, but in few days
the milk will be reabsorbed, and final
ly the udder will become normal. A
rest Of about six weeks is beneficial
to the COW, and experience has shown
that cows will have greater annual
yield If they are dried off instead of
being MIXED up to the time of calving

Hour, Morning and Evening

1t is very important that the milk
ing be done regularly at as near the
same time each morning and evening
as possible. And II Is also well that
the persons doing the milking do not
change often, for each person has a

6iotting Paper.

Under the microscope fibrous blot
ting paper. when absorbing ink, re-
sembles, on a small scale, a marsh
matted with shrubs and sticks and
twigs, around which water is flowing
as ink runs about and among the
fibers that together form the spongy
paper. There is limit to the amount
OF liquid which a "blotter" will alb
sorb, as there is a limit to the
amount of water that a marsh will
absorb without overfiowing. That
limit, in the "blotter," is the COM
bined capillary attraction of the
fibrous shrubs and sticks and twigs
that together form the paper.

were given Off in the milk and excreta
than were present in the feed, al
though the cows maintained their live
weight during the experiment, and
stored sulphur and nitrogen.
Doctor Forbes says that the COW
must draw upon her bones to supply
this deficiency, because her capacity
to produce milk Is much greater than
her ability to digest minerals. The
farm foods which are richest in the
minerals are the legumes, especially
clover and alfalfa. Grain feeds are
all deficient in the most important
mineral nutrient, lime. Lime may also
be added to the ration in the form o.
bone flour or as calcium carbonate.

THE DOLORES STAR


Maintenance Of Roads Moe Impoetant
Than the building.
The greatest waste Of public moneys
that is being committed today is in
surfacing our country roads and then
apparently abandoning the same. No
county that engages in real road
building can afford to dismiss its
workmen when the road has been con-
structed. The fact of the matter 10,
that the work is just then well under
way.
It rarely ever happens that the ini-
tial work on the road is done wisely,
but there are a multitude of little
things that later must be added or re-
paired in order that the road may be
in good condition. Ruts and chuck
holes are sure to form and these must
be filled or the road soon goes to pieces.
These things should be planned for and
done quickly if the improved road is to
do the fullest service, and this is the
one thing that it seems to me some of
our country commissioners are neglect
ing. They become 50 imbued with the
idea of building good roads that they
fail to prepare for the maintenance of
roads already constructed. e. B.
