DAIRY
FACTS
WHAT MAKES YELLOW BUTTER
Color Found by Dairy Department
of Missouri College.

Everybody likes yellow milk and but
ter, but sometimes the color Is absent.
This absence Is especially noticeable
In butter. Chemists Investigated the
cause of this variation in color as long
ago as 1880, but 1t remained for the
dairy department of the University of
Missouri college Of agriculture to de-
termine the real source and nature of
the natural color of dairy products.
Three years of investigation not only
showed the cause of the natural color
but made clear the nature and source
of the yellow color that is found In the
body fat of cattle. The color In the
tallow is exactly the same as that
found In butter. Cows that give yell
low butter have yellow body fat, while
those which give whittier butter have
whittier body fat.
The coloring matter In both cases is
carOtin, so-called since it was first
milk and butter Is not made by the an
iInal but comes from the feed. This
coloring substance Is found in all green
leaves, which accounts for the yellow
butter in summer. BY continued feed
ing Of feeds free from coloring matter
1t was possible, in the experiments con-
Quoted by the Missouri college of agri-
culture, to obtain white butter from a
Jersey cow. AS result Of the work
a list of feeds that will give yellow but
ter and those that will not Is available.

PARIS NOT ALL OF FRANCE
tai City but Has a Quality and
Culture Of Its Own.

"Paris is France" the American
traveller is fond Of remarking, but
Paris Is far from being all Of France.
There are numerous Independent mind
ed French cities, which persist In main
tanning not only commerce but also
a quality and culture Of their own.
There is nothing Mt all Partisan about
tie world In itself.
The native Of Bordeaux does not
yield reverently to the judgment of
Paris In matters political and artistic,
as many of the French provincials do,
writes a traveller. He Is rather reti-
cent for a native Of the south Of
France, but after time it may dawn
on you that he actually considers BOr-
deaux superior to Paris in most ways.
Paris is all right for a vacation, he
will say. but not for place to live.
Bordeaux Is quietly and soIidly self
satisfied, prosperous, kindly, conserva-
tive and mild.
1t is a rich city, with an immense
foreign trade In times Of peace. 1t has
one Of the greatest harbors Of France,
where 1900 ships may lie at anchor. 1t
is stately city, with great buildings
and noble residences; even its poorer
houses are built In an individual style
differing from that Of the rest Of
France. It has southern speech that
practically gives 1t dialect Of its own.
II is In closer touch with England. with
the United States and with South
America than any other French city.
It's cooking amounts to native art.
It is the center Of one Of the most
famous wine growing regions in the
world. Finally, it's climate is a most
disagreeable thing to live with.
His attitude toward the climate is
the shibboleth by which the native of
Bordeaux may be recognized. Strang-
ers may admire the architecture, the
boulevards, the wine, the cookery and
the shnrbor. But n man Inns good
word for the climate Of Bordeax II r.
a Sign ne was born and bred there and
got TO like u before he was old enough
to know better.

spraying after the disease is noticed
Is practically of no value because the
spray cannot get at the pores of tho
fungus. Spraying must be done when
these spots are dormant or in their
winter stage. Therefore the spraying
should be done before the middle OF
March in ordinary seasons or earlier
in seasons which are advanced.
There are a number of fungicides
which will keep this trouble in check.
The standard remedy used to be cop
per sulphate at the strength of two
pounds to 80 gallons of water. This
proved very efficient, but it was diff
cult to tell whether all parts of the
tree were covered or not. Bordeaux
mixture, made of four pounds Of cop
per sulphate and five pounds of lime,
also does good work and is better than
copper sulphate because 1T leaves Il
mark by which one can tell whether
the entire tree has been covered.

animals he has to sell; and, third, to
breed more skillfully, thus building up
n profitable herd in the shortest pos
sible time.
Judging receives such prominence
mt shows and fairs that the casual
observer sometimes carries away the
idea that 1t is field for experts rather
than for the practical farmer. This Is
ali Incorrect conclusion. Practically
everyone who handles dairy cattle is
benefited by studying the art of judy
ing cattle.
