RINSE UTENSILS AFTER USE
Prevents Water in Milk From Evapor
atins and Solid Matter Sticking
to the Vessel.

The first important rule to observe
In cleaning dairy utensils is to rinse
them Immediately after use. This pre-
vents the water in the milk from
evaporating and the solid matter stick
ing to the utensil. If 1t is impossible
to wash the utensils ut once rinse
them in cold or lukewarm water, so
that the most of the milk will be re-
moved before it has chance to stick.
Hot water should not be used until
the milky substances have been re-
moved with cold or lukewarm water.
for the hot water will coagulate the
casein in the milk so that 1T will
stick to the tin and require greater
amount of washing before it can be
removed.
After rinsing in cold or lukewarm
water wash the utensils in hot water.
Cold or lukewarm water is practically
worthless for cleaning purposes. Use
some standard brand Of alkali wash
ing powder with the hot water. The
alkali powders are more desirable for
the work, since they quickly and eff
GENTLY remove the milk from the tin.
Powders or soaps that have grease
as part of their composition do not
give as satisfactory results as the
alkali powders.

UNFAILING WAY OF
SPREADING DISEASE
Dirty Water Pan Is Menace to
Poultry FIock-VesseI Should
Be Cleaned Every Day.

How often do you clean up the wa.
ter pans in your henhouse? You ought
to clean them every day. For dirty
water pan is the surest way of spread.
ing disease throughout your flock.
The best way of handling water in
the poultry house is TO keep it In a
cheap, fat washbasin that can be
easily cleaned and refilled. it always
pays TO take care of water tanks.
You have to fill them, and the few min
utcs which you devote to each pan in
cleaning is mot lost.
Place the open basin on box some
s or 10 inches high and perhaps is
inches square, and keep runway for
it. This keeps 1t from filling up
with dirt and straw from the floor and
the hens do not climb into IL IN drink
ing.
Then put the box and basin in a
sunny corner of the house away from
the roosts and nests, so that no dirt
can fall into ii from above.
Clean it and refill il with clean,
fresh water every day and you will
have put tie disease germs to flight
i<seiinitely.

OTRkNTO AND ITS STRAITS

Across the Straits Of OtrantO, where

tons of ancient and medieval times,
says q bulletin issued by the National
Geographic society. This 50-mile ex-
panse of water, which joins the Adri-
attic and Ionian seas, separates the
southeastern extremity or heel OF the
Italian peninsula from that part of
Albania which was known in ancient
times as Epirus.
1t is 60 miles from Otranto, the
beautifully situated Italian fishing vii
lage which gives its name to the
straits, to Avlona, the nearest port in
Albania. Four hundred miles to the
northwest are Venice and Trieste, at
the head of the Adriatic, while three
hundred and fifty miles to the north
west, beyond the Ionian sea, is the
British possession, Malta.
At the beginning of the war Otranto
was a town of scarcely more than 1000
inhabitants, but Of some Importance

barkation for Apollonia the famous
Greek center of culture and city in
which the future emperor, Augustus,
wns completing his education at the
time that he was summoned to the
capital following the assassination of
julius Caesar.
Otranto was one of the Calabrian
towns captured in 1908 by Robert Guis-
card (the sly), that resourceful Nor
man adventurer who, at the high tide
of his career, gave promise of dupli-
eating in southern Italy and in Greece

tryman, William the ConquerOr, who
during the same decade was subduing
England. Four hundred years later
the seaport was again raided and this
time fell under the hands Of the
Turks. From this setback 1t never
recovered. Among the points of in

tie, built by Alphonso of Aragon, and

eleventh century and In which are to
be found some of the columns that

and for recreation purposes, for which
reasons alone farm with well-lo-
Gated grove of trees, however small,
will sell for more than one without.
Thus woodlot may at the same time
increase the general prosperity of the
farm, add to its comfort as home,
and enhance its value as an invest
ment.
The reason farmers have not given
as full consideration to the woodlot
as it deserves is that they have not
had complete enough knowledge Of the
market possibilities of various wood
lot products and of the rate of growth
and possible yields per acre of prop
erly cared for stands of different spe-
cies and ages, or that they have consid-
cred only the present need and have
not looked ahead. Special attention
is now being given by the forest serv-
ice to these questions and to the ques-
ton of improved methods of market
ing. Information about the uses of
various kinds Of wood and the markets
for them has been compiled for q num-
her Of states. In some cases this in
formation has been published by the
State Forcsters in Wood Using In
dustry Reports ana in Handbooks for
Marketing WoodlOt Products. A new
bulletin prepared by the forest serv-
ice Farmers Bulletin No. 715, Meas
uring and Marketing Woodlot Prod
uctS) Is a handbook of practical in
formation for farmers regarding the
measurement of timber, the forms in
which woodlot products are sold, the
methods of sale, and the way to find
market. Another just published
Farmers Bulletin No. I'll, The Care
and Improvement of the Woodlot)
contains information intended to as
Sist the farmer in managing his wood
lot so that it will yield the best quail
lty and the largest amount of timber
of which IL Is capable.

The farmer too often considers only
the local and immediate uses of a
woodlot, overemphasizing them and
disregarding other functions that
might ultimately prove to be more inn
portant. For example, where agricul-
ture is entering heavily wooded re-
gions, timber is likely to be considered
only an incumbrance. In long-settled
farming regions, where most Of the
timber has been cut and only Il few
trees are left, the farmers may prefer
TO save the remnant for the shade it
gives to stock or buildings or because
it improves the appearance of the
farm. In prairie country, protection

convenient supply of wood for farm
consumption, may cause owners to
place high value on their wood
lots. In mountainous regions near
thickly populated manufacturing cen
ters the woOdlot may be valued for its
wood-producing capacity alone. The
temptation is to forget or underesti-
mate those functions which are not
obviously and Immediately beneficial.
As n matter of fact, the less obvious
functions are often the very ones
which are likely to prove of the great
est value in the long run. For exam
pie, many of the Minnesota farmers
who totally cleared their lands would

If dairymen could see in the con-
crete sense the millions of dollars
which the consistent use of nothing
but purebred sires would bring to
the dairy industry within ten years
time, the mission of the apostles of
better breeding would be once and for
all fulfilled. A purebred sire Is up-
doubtedly the most profitable and at
the same time economical investment
which the dairy farmer can make.

CFrom the United States Department of
Agricultural
A permanent woodlot is an essential
part Of a well-equipped farm. In heav-
lily wooded states especially farmers
are likely to overlook this fact and
recklesSly cut. misuse, or clear up
their forest areas. II does not occur
to them that ii may be advisable to al
low thrifty, immature timber TO ma
ture rather than TO remove ii at loss
and that it is often better to practice
intensive agriculture on areas already
cleared than To clear additional areas
which are in growing timber
The one direct economic reason for
the use Of land rs woOdlot is that on
some areas timber is the most profit
able crop that can he grown. This, OF
course, is especially true Of poor and
rough land. Where al the land is
adaptable To more valuable crops the
woodlot should occupy only a small
part of the farm area.
Their are Il great many indirect con-
siderations, however. which justify the
maintenance of IA permanent woodiot
