GOOD CREAM ESSENTIAL
FOR MAKING GOOD BUTTER

The difference I'M price between high
and low butter makes its imperative for
cooperative creameries of Minnesota
to produce a high scoring butter in or
der to make i success Of their enter
prise.
Good butter cal, never be made from
poor cream. No matter how skillful
the buttermailer may be, he can. never
expect to place high scoring butter on
the market il, he must churn cream
which has been practically spoiled
through careless handling.
1t is not a.:difficult problem to keep
cream clean and sweet: Cows should
be clean and healthy and stabbed in a
well ventilated, we'll cared-for barn.
The milk should be drawn into clean,
scalded, dry pals. The S.small-top pals
are best. The strainer cloths should
be thoroughly boiled and dried. Then
it is important that the separator parts
be clean, scalded and dried each day.
When cream handled with these pre-
cautions is placed in clean scalded,
dry can and Immediately cooled to SO
degrees f. or lower and kept that cold
until delivered to the creamery, it will
give the buttermaker raw material
from which he can easily make the
grade of butter that has brought Min
nesota it's enyiable reputation. Harold

PLOW LAND PRICES SHOW
DECLINE DTJRTNG PAST WEAR

A decrease i'll the average price per
acre of pillow land in the United States
of about seven per cent during the past
year is recorded in report recently
issued by the United States Depart
ment Of Agriculture. The decrease is
attributed to the reduction in the prices
of crops. The average value per acre
Of pillow. land on March / of this year
was $S3.78 as compared with $90.O1 in
1920, according to the report. In 1919
it. was $74.31.
According to the report, the greatest
drop in the price of land was in the
southern states and the greatest drop
in any state was in Kentucky, at
tributed to the decline in price Of
tobacco. The drop in the value of cot
ton is considered as the cause for the
greater drop i'll the price of southern
lands. Iowa ranks first and Illinois
second in having the highest price for
plow land. The Western states show
the least decline in prices Of land.
Land prices are still higher than any
year preceding 1920.

WORCESTER, Mass, July %
Because Rev. Edward Macphpe
appeared in the pulpit in a sack
coat instead of the more ecclesiastical
frock, GAINESVILLE Baptist Church is
rent with discord.
The pastor, who is paid $40 n
week, has resigned, members are
leaving the church to. organize a
new body, in which they claim there
will be more of the spirit OF Jesus
Christ, even II meetings are held
in a tent or a portable school house,
and Mr.. Macphee, as parting word,
says he forgives the gossips who have
caused the trouble.
He was asked to resign, and the
reason given was that the church
could not pay his salary. Indivd.
uals in the church admit this ls only
subterfuge, as so per cent of the
congregation are not members, and
these are with Macphee to a man.
They assert that they have had to
pay all the bills anyway, so are pre-.
pared now to extend a call TO
Macphee to remain in GAINESVILLE as
preacher and pastor OF a union

INCREASE INTAKES
ON INHERITANCE
URGED BY MANY
Farmer and Labor Bodies Favor
New demonstrating Plan Be-
fore House Committee.
BY A. o. HAYWARD,
Interna ttonaI News servfce.

Increased inheritance taxes are be-
ing considered seriously today as a
new number on the program Of tax
revision being drafted by the House
Ways and Means committee.
This increase is being urged by many
witnesses both for the purpose Of pro-
ducing revenues to take the place Of
taxes which 1t is sought to have lifted
from business and with the larger OBJ
)ect OF breaking up the. great fortunes
that are being amassed In this coun-
try. The farmer. labor. single tax and
other organizations which have ap-
peared before the committee have
agreed In urging that the inheritance
taxes be increased. 1t is the only rec
ommendation on which they have
agreed.
Congressman Ramseyer of Iowa In.
troduced In the House. and there is
pending before the committee, a bill
which would double the inheritance
tax and reduce the exemption. Inner
itance taxes run now from / to rs per
cent. with an exemption of $4,000.
The Ramseyer bill would increase the
taxes on higher inherttances to a min
imum OF 50 per cent. with an increase
OF this maximum TO 10 per cent and
reduction OF exemption to $4,000.
