BUTTER MAKING
 IS EXPERT WORK
Process Is Just as Technical as Manufacture of Piece of
 Cotton Cloth.
MILK IS SKINNED ON FARM
Cream ls Tested, Pasteurixed, Cooled and "Ripened" Before churnine- Disease Germs and Bae-
 teria Destroyed.

This is the story of creamery butter-the steps in the manu- fracture of the high-grade prod uct which comes to your table each week.. Taking this food for granted. you probably have not realized the rather intricate and technical process through which 1t passes from milk to the finished product. If this story will inspire a sympathy which leads to more careful and con- servative use of butter 1t will have served its purpose.

MAKE THE soWs EXERCISE.
One of the biggest hindrances

One of the biggest hindrances to the farrowing 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 . brood SOW is that which she will take voluntarily and not through force. She should get her corn ration by hustling for 1t in the stalk fields and not by getting 1t around the sleeping quarters, on feeding floors, or in troughs. Protein feeds In the form of shorts, tankaSe. oil meal, or alfalfa hay should be supplied

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 both churned and worked In the machine.
 The churn is filled only onethird or one-half full. so that when revolved the cream which is carried up by the motion of the churn has plenty of room to fall. The concussiOn 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 OF corn will be milk. Then the buttermilk is drawn off through a hole in the bottom of the -churn ana 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 are 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 1t goes to the con. sumer.
 Many seientine 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 cream that is re- ceived Is tested by means of the Bab- 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 c sample of butter from each churning for moisture and salt. Both of these tests require skillful work manship and the use of delicate scales. Because of the highly specialized and

AMAZON MANHATTAN.
Crosscut From Ray Jefferson Has Gu.
Fine Body of Ore.

A crosscut from the lower tunnel Of
the Ray-Jefferson is reported to have
cut the Amazon Manhattan vein,
which shows a good body of ore SIM
liar in grade and extent to the ore in
the upper workings, and at an addi-
tional depth of 1000 feet or more.
Work on the Amazon Manhattan has
been confined to running this crosscut
for several months. 1t will provide a
direct deep tunnel outlet to the mine
connecting with the Ray Jefferson
mill. An aerial tramway connects
the upper workings with the mill and
was in operation until a few months
ago where work was suspended
on account of the refusal Of the
management to comply with
certain demands of employees regard
ing the boarding house service. A
large amount of ore is reported block
ed out in the upper workings, and the
striking of the same shoot from the
Ray Jefferson tunnel makes a ire
mendous addition to the ore reserves.
Ihe ore is both lead and zinc, with
'he latter predominating.

Mont. Mr.. Shaw owns a group of COP
per claims a short distance this side

covers the ledge for distance of 5000
feet and copper values are found in
the outcrop. A tunnel to the vein
shows it to be 40 feet wide with an
average copper content, Mr.. Shaw
says, of 5 per cent, with a uniform
value in gold also. According to Mr..
Shaw's description, his property is a
very attractive proposition for some
one who is looking for a copper mine.
