There Is much we may do now to
hurry an increase in supply. With
past, we have little or nothing in the
qast, we havekept our steers until they
were three or four years old. Thru a
campaign for early maturity, we can
easily reduce this age by at least a
year, thereby making room for a lar
ger number of animals, to say nothing
of producing a better beef, with less
waste. The same general principles
Will apply to hogs and sheep.
Our people should not be misled
into blowing up too much grass land.
The greatest crop we have, and. in
deed. the only one we cannot do with
out, is grass. We should give its
growth the same consideration. at
least, that we give our other crops.
The most economical way to increase
production Is to do better farming on
what we now cultivate, rather than
glow up a lot of good pasture which
IS very difficult to replace.

ELIMINATING WASTE IN MAKING
BUTTER.

To send our allies as much food as
possible of the most concentrated nu-
tritiye value in the least SHINING
space is our problem this winter.
Among these concentrated foodstuffs
Is butter.
In the past, much butter al
spoiled. or its quality seriously af-
tected by the manner in which it was
handled after il had been gathered in
the churn. The buttermaker's great
est skill is called for in removing II
and working II into salable form with
out destroying its trmness, texture
and flavor.
The old rule that the buttermilk
should be drawn when the butter
%granules are the size OF wheat grains
Is a good one. The most successful
buttermakers never add wash water
until the buttermilk is drawn away.
Ihen pure. cold water equivalent to
the amount OF buttermilk is added and
the churn revolved a few times.
The butter may be worked yigor-
ously until it begins to adhere in large
Jumps II the water is cold enough.
Ihe water Is then drawn off, and. If a
largo power churn is used, the butter
is salted in the churn. In home but
termaking in small Quantities. how
ever, better sailing can be done on the
worker.
After a light working. place the but
ter In a cool room so as to allow the
salt TO dissolve and the whole mass
to cool SO it will not become oily when
put in prints or tubs.
