churn. During the winter the feed is
such that the fat globules become very
much harder and this likewise inter-
feres with ease in churning. The
cream also becomes more viscous as
the animals advance in their lactation
period and this again makes churning
more difficult.
Whenever butter granules fail to ap-
pear in about 80 to 40 minutes churn-
ing, the cream should be raised in
temperature. 1t is well to raise the
temperature only few degrees at a
time for if too warm the cream will
give butter with a very soft salvy tex
ture. If on raising the temperature
a few degrees the butter refuses to
gather, further raise of temperature
is necessary. Whenever a raise of
temperature does not give satisfactory
results, add cold, pure water until the
cream is diluted down to about the
thickness of milk, reseparate the mix.

LUPINES ARE POISONOUS TO RANGE SHEEP

Various lupines which grow wild in

certain conditions, cause the fatal
poisoning of range sheep. Remedies

Cows and Horses Injured.
Experiments carried on by the spe-
cialists showed that though it is pos
sible for horses and cows to be inju-
riously affected by eating large guam
titles of the lupines, these animals will
seldom consume enough of the plants
to cause trouble, and that it is among

DIFFICULT CHURNING
In WINTER SEASON
Trouble Usually Caused by Incor-
rect Temperature or Compo-
Sition of Some Milk.

(By L. G. RINKLE, Missouri College OF
Agriculture)
Failure to get butter ''to come" by
churning is not an uncommon expert
ence during the winter season. The
trouble most often occurs on those
farms where only a few cows are
MIXED. If the milk of one or two ami
mails is responsible for the difficult
churning, other milk when mixed with
1t will overcome the trouble. Usually
when the trouble occurs it is due to
Ing temperature, or because of the pc
culiar composition of some milk and
cream.
During the cold months of the year
cream should be churned at higher
temperature than during the summer
months. For this reason careful
regulation of the temperature is neces-
sary to give the proper ease in churn-
ing. If the temperature at which one
churns is not high during the winter
months, the cream must be churned
longer time to form butter. One may
churn at so low temperature that
butter will not form with a reasonable
amount of churning. 1t is very COM
mon practice during the winter to- al
low the cream to become so cold that
1t will not churn.
Sometimes when cold cream is agi-
sated in the churn it will whip and ex-
pand until the churn is nearly full.
In this condition butter will not form
because the cream cannot be sufficient
ly agitated. When low temperature
of the cream is the cause Of difficult
churning the trouble may be easily cor
rected by raising the temperature. As
the winter season approaches there is
usually a larger number of stripper
cows. When a COW becomes nearly
dry the butterfat globules in the milk
become very small and collect with
ueat difficulty on hein0 aeitated in the

may therefore eat of the lupines day
after day without injury so long as the
amount consumed within a short pe-
riod is not sufficient to poison their
systems.
Preventive Suggestions.
In regard to preventing the poison
ing of range sheep the specialists offer
the following suggestions:
Sheep should never be taken from
the cars to a pasture having much lu-
pine. 1t is cheaper to buy hay. After
long drives with insufficient forage
avoid grazing grounds which are COW
cred with lupine. If it is necessary
to drive sheep over lupine patches, do
not hurry them, but allow them to
spread out and drift across. Special
care should be taken in the fall, when
the grass may be covered by a fall of
snow, since at such times the lupines
may be the only vegetation protruding
from the snow covering, and therefore
may be eaten in large quantities.
In the treatment of the fiocks re-
member the general fact, which IS ap-
plicable in regard to all poisonous
plants, that well-fed sheep are not
likely to eat injurious plants. Condi-

4 thrilling mystery story about a

with just one Of these ugly fnsinua-
tions, and I'll take mighty good care
that you are sorry for it. If you are
going to behave like a bad child, you
deserve a licking, and I'll give it to
you"
An overflow from the parlor poured
out on the porch. LIE Moyne had got
himself in hand somewhat. He was
still angry, but the look in Joe's eye
startled him. He put hand on the
boys shoulder.
"You're wrong, old man." he said.
"You're insulting the girl you care for
by the things you are thinking. And,
If it's any comfort to you, l have no
intention of interfering In any way.
You can count me out. It's between
you and her."
Joe picked his straw hat from a
chair and stood turning it In his hands.
"Even If you don't care for her, how
do know she isn't crazy about your"
"My word Of honor, she isn't"
"She sends you notes to McKees'."
"Just to clear the air, I'll show 1t to
you. It's no breach Of confidence. It's
about the hospital"
Into the breast pocket Of his coat he
dived and brought up wallet. The
wallet had had a name on it in gilt let
ters that had been carefully scraped
off. But Joe did not wait to see the
note.
"Oh, damn the hospitall" he said
and went swiftly down the steps and
into the gathering twilight Of the June
night.

ties-that was his game. Wilson be-
came content, interested again. The girl
was Undetermined. She challenged
his philosophy and gave him a chance
to defend it. With the conviction, as
their meal went on, that LIE Moyne
and his companion must surely have
gone, she gained ease.
1t was only by wild driving that she
got back to the hospital by ten o'clock.
Wilson left her at the corner, well
content with himself. As he drove up
the Street he glanced across at the
Page house. Sidney was there on the
doorstep. talking to a tall man who
stood below and looked up at her.
Wilson settled his tie, in the darkness.
Sidney was mighty pretty girl. The
June night was in his blood. He was
sorry he had not kissed Carlotta good
night. He rather thought, now he
looked back, she had expected it.
AS he got out of his car at the curb,
young man who had been standing In
the shadow Of the treebox moved
quickly away.
Wilson smiled after him in the dark
ness.
"That you, Joe2" he called.
But the boy went on.
Sidney entered the hospital as pro-
bationer early in August. Christine
was to be married in September to
Palmer Howe, and, with Harriet and
X. in the house, she felt that she could
safely leave her mother.
The balcony outside the parlor was

More humus means less frequent

see most of our farmers cutting the
third crop of alfalfa, and then plow-
ing up the field. Whereas, If this
blowing were done in the fall about
the time the third cutting was ready
to harvest, it would give this field
dressing of green manure which
would be invaluable for it. This is
not theory at all. 1t has been DEM

Sidney and K. LIE Moyne were din

made her eyes shine like stars. Sht

All, that was too bad! Another

violent resentment only appealed to
Sidney's curiosity.
Carlotta Harrison came out alone.
Although the tapping of her heels was
dulled by the grass, although she had
exchanged her cap for the black hat,
Sidney knew her at once. A sort of
thrill ran over her. 1t was the pretty
nurse from Doctor Wilson's Office. Was
it possible-but of course not! The
book of rules stated explicitly that such
things were forbidden.
"Don't turn around" she said swift

Wilson had stopped in the bar, that

in her dreams. This man was older,

She had not been mistaken. Here,
