to the neck between 0 and the 8 per
cent graduation mark on the scale and
to wash any impurities from the but
terfat. The bottles are whlrled again
for q minute and then removed and
placed in n hot-water bath at 130 de-
grees to 140 degrees Fahrenheit, for n
period of five minutes. This insures
the fat being at the proper tempera-
ture for reading. In cold weather 1t
may be necessary to remove the bot
and place them in hot water to warm
the fat.
Reading the Test.
The readings are made from the ex-
treme bottom of the lower meniscus
Of the fat column to the extreme top
Of the upper meniscus, reading from
the point ID to the point A at the top
Of the meniscus, as indicated in the
illustration. When care is taken to
read to the extreme top of the menis-
Gus the readings agree with those OBJ
tained by gravlmetric analysis. II
% per cent were the lower reading
and 10 per cent the top reading, the
correct reading Of the test would be
5.4 per cent butterfat. A better way
Is to use pair Of divlders, placing
the points at the top and bottom of
the fat, and then, placing one point
on the zero mark on the scale, read
Off the percentage indicated on the
scale by the upper point. The per-
centage Of butterfat then is written
on the record sheet. The butterfat
column should be yellowish or amber
color. Blackened fat indicates that
too much, too strong, or too warm acid
was used, while light, curdy material
indicates that part Of the curd was
not dissolved by the acid, owing to too
little, too weak, or too cold milk or
acid, or to insufficient mixing.
Empty the test bottles while still
hot, shaking the bottles so that the
hot acid will rinse out the whitish
sediment or ash at the bottom of the
bottles. First rinse out the bottles
with warm water, then wash with hot
water and washing powder, and rinse
again with hot water.

Silk coatees Favored.

Little silk bolero coatees are made
to go with the lovely cream white net
dresses. They are often rather loose,
and made by tapping the breadths to
make them take the form of the figure,
more or less. They are bordered with
ancient glmps, or with oId-fashioned
looking narrow flowered ribbons.
They generally take the tone Of the
ribbon used in some way on these va
porous dresses.

suit skirts longer and eight inches
above the floor is a safe rule for them.
There are several new names for
soft wOOlen cloths, usually descriptive
of their surfaces. Instead of trying to
remember them all-for no one else Is
apt to-they may be classed as the
"glove finish" materials, as their names
imply-suede twill, wool jersey, ve-
lours, broadcloth, bolivia, are all OF
this character.
The suit shown here has plain
skirt fuller than the average. The coat
is semi-fitting with straight line down
the front, and fashionable fullness
over the hips, where it is set on to Il
belt curved at the sides. Two small
pockets appear below the belt and
there is a convertible collar of the ma
terial. The hem of the coat is very
narrow and there are no decorative
features except the buttons on the
pockets,

The milk should be tested for but
terfat at least once month. In TAX
ing the sample the entire milking Of
the cow should be poured three times
from one pail to another to insure an
even mixing Of the butterfat. Imme-
diately after this, a sample Is taken
by means Of small dlpper, or prefer
ably Il long metal tube called milk
thief" The tube is lowered into the
milk, the forefnger placed tightly over
the upper end, and a portion of the
milk withdrawn. The milk is allowed
to flow into the sample bottle by re-
leasing the pressure on the upper end
of the tube. When the milking is very
small, it will be necessary to insert
the tube several times in order to get
a sample large enough for testing. A
second sample of the following milk
ing containing the same number Of
dips of milk is added to the first and
mixed to form composite sample of
the days milk. Sample bottles of
about one-half pint capacity are used
and they should be kept always tight
ly stOppered to prevent evaporation
and should be marked plainly for the
purpose Of identification.
