PALS KEEP OUT
HARMFUL GERMS.


In modern dairies where clean
milk Is produced the small-top
milk pail is a necessity, as 1t
presents only a small opening
into which dust and dirt may
fall from the air or from the
cows body. 1t has been found
by experience that the use of n
pail of this kind greatly reduces
the number of bacteria in milk
from dairies where it is used.
Many types of milk pals are for
sale, but any timer by the addi-
ton Of a hood can convert any
ordinary pail into small-top

The process of manufacturing
just as technical as the manufacture
Of a piece of cotton cloth. In most in
stances the milk is SKINNED on the
farm by means of a hand-operated cen
trifugal separator, which extracts the
cream much more efficiently than the
,Old-time gravity system. The cream
may be hauled to the creamery by the
farmer or it may be shipped in from a
farm 100 or nor miles away.
AS the cans. of cream arrive they are
inspected and sampled In order to de-
termine their value for buttermaking.
The cream Is then poured into huge
watts holding 300, 900, or more gallons,
in each Of which is a coil, or similar
device, that when put in motion agi-
itates the cream and thoroughly mixes
1t. Hot water and steam can be turned
into these coils to heat the cream.
In many creameries the cream is heat
ed In this way to a temperature Of
about 145 degrees f., held at that tenn
perature for about 30 minutes and

pasteurization. The object is to kill
any disease-germs that may be In the
cream and to destroy nearly all other
bacteria. This protects the health of
the consumer, improves the keeping
properties Of the butter, and enables
the creamerynan to control the ripen-
ing Of the cream and develop the prop
,er flavor; 1t also insures a uniform
flavor in the butter.
A Starter Produces Flavor.
By running cold water through the
coils In the vat the cream is cooled to
a temperature of between 60 and 20
degrees F., and then a quantity of
starter is added to produce the favor.
The starter is a culture containing
many millions of lactic-acid bacteria
grown in pasteurized skim milk until
the milk has soured and curdled. The
lactic-acid bacteria produce the desir-
able flavor in ripened-cream butter,
When, the cream is sufficiently ripened
or soured it is cooled to a Temperature
of between 40 and 60 degree F. and
held at that temperature for two hours
or more, after which, it is run into one

! The crookedest river in the world,
according to the Railway and Marine
News, is the Humboldt, which flows
southwesterly through central Nevada.
At one place the river flows eight
miles between two points two and a
half miles apart, its course being north
70 times, east Is times, south 80 times
and west Al times. At 80 different
points it is within $50 feet of itself,
the current flowing in opposite direc-
tons. And it ends it's course by fad

pacity of 1000 or more pounds of but
ter. Although commonly called churnS,
they really are combined churns and
workers, because, unlike home butter
making. the butter is beth churned
and worked in the machine.
The churn is filed only one-third OF
6ne-half full, SO that when reYolyed
the cream which is Carried up BY the
motion Of the churn has plenty of
room to fall. The conclusion thus pro-
duced causes the minute globules Of
butterfat to gather into granules of
butter. When the churn is stopped
after having been run for about an
hour granules of butter about the size
of grains of wheat or corn will be
floating on the surface Of the butter
milk. Then the buttermilk is drawn
off through a hole in the bottom Of the
churn and the butter %granuleS washed
with pure, cold water. After draining,
salt is added to the granular butter
which Is still in the churn.
The big wooden rollers afe then put
into gear, the churn started and the
butter worked in the churn until the
salt is all dissolved and the butter has
a waxy body. The butter is removed
and packed into tubs or made into
pound prints and put into cartons in
the form in which it goes to the con.
Sumer.
Many Scientific Tests Made.
= Many .creameries have well-eQuipped
laboratories in which the numerous
scientific tests that are a part Of the
creamery business are made. A SAM
pie of every can of e that is re-
ceived is tested by means of the Bah
cock test in order to determine the
per cent of butterfat. BY this means
the pounds Of butterfat for which the
farmer is to be paid is determined.
The sourness or acidity of the cream
or milk is determined by means Of
another test which involves the use of
carefully calibrated glassware. In or
der that the buttermaker may be able
to turn out butter having approximate
ly the same composition day after day
he tests a sample Of butter from each
churning for moisture and salt. Both
Of these tests require -gkillfuI work
manship and the use of delicate scales.

MAKE The sows EXERCISE.

One Of the biggest hindraRces
to the narrowing Of good, strong,
vigorous filters is lack Of exer-
else for the sows. During cold
and snowy weather hogs like to
lie around the sleeping quarters
and be comfortable. That, how /.
ever, is not what they should do
all Of the time. The proper ex-
ercise for a brood SOW is that
which she will take voluntarily
and not through force. She
should get her corn ration by
> hustling for It in the stalk fields
and not by getting it around the
sleeping quarters, on feeding
floors, or in troughs. Protein
feeds in the form Of shorts,
tankage, oil meal, or alfalfa hay
should be supplied.

Hints On Care
 Of The Battery

The motorist can put water in his radiator. oil in his crank case and air in his tires. but if he wants to keep out of trouble he will draw the line at putting acid in his battery. If he finds it necessary to put something into his battery he should content Adding acid to the solution in the battery is just as much the job for himself by using distilled water only. an expert as filling a tooth-neither of them should be done by the motorist himself.' So says F.. L. Gielow, chief electrician for the Western Machinery company. local electric service sta tion experts for car owners. |.
 "The liquid you see in the battery is a solution of distilled water and sulphuric acid in the proper propor- ton 10 enable the battery to perform it's functions. If acid is added by the car owner himself the proportion of acid is very apt to be too great and the result is that the plates are de- stroyed. Distilled water may be added to bring the solution one-h half inch above the tops of the plates without harm. but this is the only thing that should be put into a battery by any one except a battery expert.
 "If you will visit our service sta ton at 326 East Washington street every week or every two weeks. we will be very glad to put in the dis titled water for you. We will also test the specific gravity of the bat tery solution. to ascertain if it is in a healthy working condition"

ECONOMY IS WATCHWORD
 IN NEW STUDEBAKER CAR

Practically everything that is new in automobiles this year tends to- wards greater economy of operation, says F. M. Zander, chief engineer oi the Studebaker corporation and fath- CT of the now famous 40,O0O-mile Studebaker endurance test.
 This is particularly true in regards to carburetion. Practically every manufacturer in the past year has redesigned his manifods, inserted some form of a hot spot" or eX perimented in some form or other to see what he could do to increase the efficiency of the presentd day low grade of gasoline. but also to make this same low grade gasoline go few more miles per~gallon.
 Designed By Specialists Tn designing the new series 19 Studebaker cars we went into this matter very thoroughly Working in conjunction with our own engineering staff, we have had the benefit of the experience and expert advice of some of the foremost specialists in car buretion, and some of their discover ies have been really wonderful. Successive experiments proved that the large manifold is very wasteful
  showed that the average carburetor, which in the past has been thought satisfactory, is more than efficient | The development of the hot spot was natural evolution of our labOra- | tory and experimental tests. After a great deal of experiment. l ing with manifolds made of glass. SC that the action of the gases passing | through them at both low and high | speeds could be observed, it developed | that at low speed the large manifold allowed the heavier gas and particles i of gas to lie dormant in the bottom In other words, the travel of air through the manifold was so light as not to completely fill the manifold but simply to rise to the top.
 Heavy Gas Falls
 This action naturally allowed the heavier gas to fall to the bottom, and at the time the throttle was opened extremely rich mixture into the cyl finders which explains the slow get away of some cars, and, too, it has a great deal to do with the miles pel gallon of gasoline.
 We next found that the gas trav- cling direct from the carburetol moved through the center of the manifold to the point at which ir branches-the heavier molecules O gasoline going right on up and hit ting the point at which the manifold branches.
 "On the manifold that does not us, a hot spot at this point this gaso line falls back into the manifold ant carburetor. gradually to be absorbet in the overrich mixture.
 AS a result of these experiment. and observations we decreased tn size of the manifold on each new | model and put our "hot-spot' at tn point directly over the carburetor

 BOWLING EXPERTS

So great is the interest in bowling among the employees of the Willys- overland company that the 64 five men teams which compose the bowl Ing organization cannot arrange schedule to allow each team to play the. other and decide the champion ship for the plant. The club is in charge of Overland men and they have private alleys of the most mod ern type installed at the factory.
 There are eight of these alleys. The pin setters are supplied by the Over land company At the annual ban quet givent recently $4,000 in prizes was distributed. This money was raised by the men through sale of program from entrance fees and from money received from a charge for games. The balance in the treasury which was left after the awarding of prizes was contributed to the Toledo war chest fund.

was obvious that this was the only point the heated manifold would be maximum effective. Heat applied at other points made practically no i'm provement, in fact it was simply wasteful.
 Quick, Easy Starting
 " Hot-spotting' the manifold as we have done it means quick, easy start ing in all temperatures; utilization of all the gas; and the ability of the engine to burn low grade fuels. All this is bound t oresult in economy, and smooth, even flow of power
 "FloWmeter tests. conducted at var iOus times while the cars were per forming their wnderful run of 30,0O0 miles on the Chicago speedway-dur- ing the coldest and stormiest winter of half q century-showed that the new Studebaker cars were getting every atom of power from the fuel used and delivering a really remark able mileage for each gallon"

RUBBER SITUATION UNDER DISCUSSION

The attitude of the United States Tire company with regard to the sit uation created by the government S regulation of crude rubber importa- tion is set forth in the following letter just issued by that company to the trade:
 As there have been many rumors recently, of varying nature, regarding the effect on the production and sup ply of tires due to the government regulation of crude rubber importa = ton, and policies adopted by some people in the trade, which do not seem to reflect the true situation, We will give herein some facts, as We see them, which We believe will be ac- ceptable to dealers.
 In order to conserve boat tonnage for military requirements, the gov ernment has restricted the importa tion of crude rubber, the present or der in effect to cover a period o1 three months at which time further consideration of the matter will be given covering another period.
 For Normal Demand
 The rubber on hand in this coun. try new, together with that en route is sufficient to take care of norma requirements, covering the first period of restriction, and if the trade anC public will refuse to become ''panicky due to all sorts of rumors, and refrain from over buying or hoarding, it il Ithe best belief of this company tha unless some unforeseen circumstance arise. it will be entirely possible fo the tire production of this country |, take care of the needs of the trad, and public for the present year.
 Adequate stocks to take care of al requirements should be carried b, dealers, but there is no reason exist ing at this time for loading up be gond normal requirements, either be l cause of an immediate possible short age. or for any reason that we cal now foresee.
 Place Orders Ahead This is a time when the capacit, of the tire manufacturer should b. used to make sizes and styles whicl are going to be required by dealer within a reasonable period of time and we would caution our customer | to place orders for their requirement well in advance in order that we ma, | shape our production to what VII actually be required, instead of us | ing our materials. labor and capacit | to a certain extent in making size and styles which would necessaril
 have to be carried on hand for a
 unreasonable period of time"

Food and storage crops in Arizona are better than they were in 1917, and it's acreage is increased, the Earth continues. Dry weather caused much apprehension early in the year but February and March rainfall was general, except in the south eastern portion of the state and conditions have improved materially.
 Wheat for instance. on December 1, according to government estimates. was S1 per cent of normal; on April 1. 1t was 92 per cent, compared with the seven-year average of 94 per cent, this is'regarded as satisfactory. %
 There are 41,000 acres of wheat this year. compared with 33.000 acres har- vested last year. It is estimated that the yield will be over a million bush els this year; S25,000 bushels last year.

 Messrs. Dresch and Hall made their tour in behalf of the Plymouth Breth- ren of this city, their particular duty being to distribute inspirational liter ature.
 They took a complete camping and cooking outfit and lived at the road side the entire time MT. Dresch says it cost the two less than one dollar day for food. This food was cooked in tanks, attached to the manifolds of the engine.
 The trailer carried 400 pound load and 700 pounds of baggage was carried in the tonneau. Despite this load the average gasoline mileage was nearly 15.
 Neither of the tourists had had much experience in driving car when they started. but say they ex- perienced no difficulty in conse- quence.
 They had many adventures, once being arrested in Oklahoma under suspicion of being German spies. This was due to the fact that they took no collections and a wise deputy sheriff could not figure how they | met expenses.

THE NEW GAR

This is the time of year when own CTS of new cars need to be reminded that more harm may result to the vehicle in the first five hundred miles of running than in all the rest of it's life. After the car has been run a couple of hundred miles. the driver should go over it and take up slack in bolts and bearings. Pistons should have excessive fabrication during the early running of the car. stitch at this time saves not nine, but nine icon

DRY BEARINGS

One cause of insufficient fabrication in the bearings Is found in obstruc- tions in the grooves in the bearing holder. Sediment often collects in these grooves. so that they cannot perform their appointed function of carrying lubricating oil to the bearing surfaces. An excess of graphite fl that be used with the oil sometimes produces this condition.

CLEAN PLUGS

Many car owners do not realize the importance of keeping the spark plugs clean. The points of the plug seldom need cleaning, but grease and mineral dirt do accumulate on the exterior and interior of the porcelain, so that the current passes that way instead of jumping the gap as is intended. The plugs should be kept clean, or igni- tion troubles will result.
