BUTTER FROM SWEET CREAM
Because of Its Better Keeping Quail
tiles Larger Use Of 1t Is Urged
by Dairy Division.

Prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture)
The dairy division, United States
Department Of Agriculture, advises
larger use of sweet cream butter. be-
cause of its better keeping quality.
The United States navy is a large
consumer of this kind of butter, made
according to the navy specifications
from unripened or sweet cream, in
stead of from the cream ripened to
sourness, of which most creamery but
tel is made. For several years past
it has been the practice of the Navy
department to contract for butter made
OF sweet cream in large amounts to
supply the officers and sailors. This
butter is packed under the supervision
of the dairy division of the United
States Department of Agriculture.
During the war, the personnel of the
, navy being enlarged, much greater
quantity of butter was needed.
The principal reason the navy de
Sizes sweet cream butter is that ii
keeps better. AS the larger part of
the butter supply is made during the
summer months, it is necessary to put
some of it in cold storage in order to
have enough for winter, and in the
course of time it develops various
more or less undesirable flavOrs, due
TO long storage. Butter made from
sweet cream does not develop such
flavors for much longer time. if at

In winter the cost of feed. bedding
and pasture amounts to 80 per cent of
the yearly cost of producing milk in a
typical Vermont dairy section, while
in summer it amounts to 1919 per cent.
specialists of the United States De-
partment Of Agriculture found as a
result of a study covering two years
in section of that state where milk
was produced for market. The report
of this study is now published in De-
partment Bulletin 923. Unit Require
ments for Producing MIX in Vermont"
While the figures obtained show the
requirements of producing milk in that
particular section, and may be approx
innate of the requirements in similar
sections. the specialists point out that
they do not apply to dairy sections
where other conditions and methods of
management prevail.
II was found that 31.1 pounds of
concentrates were required to produce
100 pounds of milk in winter while to
produce the same amount in summer
only 81 pounds were necessary. Other
requirements for producing this
amount of milk in winter were: Haul

USE RIPE SEEDS
TO START TREES
Few Varieties of Seed Such as
Elm, Maple, Willow and Pop
lar Ripen in Spring.
LOAMY SOIL IS PREFERRED
Proximity to Farm Dwelling Is Desir-
able Because Rodents Are Not Abun-
dant-TranspIant Seedlings When
Ten Inches High.

Prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture)
Perhaps the cheapest and frequent
tation Is to collect seed from hard
wood trees and grow seedlings, say
forest specialists of the United States
Department of Agriculture in Farm
ers' Bulletin 1923, Growing and Plant
ing Hardwood Seedlings ON the Farm,
just published by the department. The
collected seed, says the bulletin, will
be fresh and the seedlings grown
from it should be thoroughly accli-
mated so far as climate is concerned.
Should Be Collected in Autumn.
Seed should not be collected before
they are ripe and this means for most
kinds of seed that the work should be
done during autumn, usually after
frost. Collecting may be extended
into the winter for such species as
ash, catalpa, honey locust, sycamore
and others which retain the seed on
the trees until that time. A few varie-
ties of seed, such as elm, silver maple,
red maple, willow and poplar ripen
during the spring and summer and
should be gathered promptly before
they are scattered.
Middle-aged trees growing in the
open, where they have been permitted
to develop broad, spreading crowns,
ordinarily produce seed in greater
abundance than trees growing in a
dense forest The fruit of some hard
wood trees requires special treatment
to separate the seed from the fieshy
covering, pod or hull before they are
planted
The best time to SOW seed, either in
ing site, is soon after it is ripe, but
when this is not possible the seed
must be stored until spring. If this
is done, the seed must not be allowed
to dry out excessively, because this
impairs its power to germinate. Seed
should be stored in q cold place.
Loamy Soil Preferable.
When the seed are to be planted a
good, well-drained, preferably loamy
soil should be selected. Proximity to
the farm dwelling is desirable, be
cause rodents are less likely to be
abundant there. Preparation of the
seed bed should be similar to that OF
getting the soil ready for vegetable
crop. Except on commercial plant
ngs. where the seed are sometimes

CITY MANAGED
REAL DEMOCRACY IN

governing body can be just as demo-
cratic as the town wishes.
But, regardless of any method of
selecting the officials, it is fundament-
ally democratic because of its simplic-
ity and because of the responsibility
which it imposes on the men chosen
to operate it.
The plan abolishes "one-man" power,
for it is the council and not the man
ager which governs. In the old-style
mayor-and-council plan, the election of
a fool mayor is something of a calam-
ity, from which there is no escape.
The manager on the other hand, is
subject to continuous control by the
group. There have been misfit man
ayers, just as there have been put in
their place or removed with little ado.
NOTE-Mr. Gilbertson, the author Of
these articles, asks that requests for
further information, pamphlets, ETC.,
be addressed direct to the National
Municipal League, 8 West 9th street,
New York, N. Y, the central civic
association of the country for technical
and informa tional service on this and

Voice of the People
TRIBUTE TO JUDGE AND SOLDIER
Editor, Kenosha Evening News:

IhIbUI E HI JUDGE AND SOLDIER.
Editor, Kenosha Evening News:
Will you please insert this letter in
your Voice Of the People" column?
This letter is being written by a
former service man, who volunteered
for the mixup with Germany in 1917,
and who saw the thing through. AS a
volunteer and as fellow who saw
overseas service, the writer feels that
he has a perfect right to express his
views on a story which your paper
carried last night.
The story to which the writer refers
is the one in which a former service
man who had been on four battle
fronts in France and who had been
wounded by bursting shrapnel she'll,
had been arrested for taking milk off
from some of the front porches of
citizens of Kenosha, because he was
starving. Judge Tully should be most
highly commended by every right
thinking citizen of Kenosha for re-
leasing the battle-scarred warrior. And
at the same time that the writer wants
to commend Judge Tully for releasing
the prisoner" the writer wants to
issue little warning to the United
States.
The American citizen is a pretty
quiet sort of an individual. Soldiers
are citizens. The usual thing when
ever something out of the ordinary oc-
ours is to call mass meeting, express
vote of indignation, and then 90
home until something else happens to
raise the ire of the citizens. But once
this is going to happen too often and
then there is going to be something
real happen. Whenever the American
public wakes up and really wants to
accomplish things, II is able to do it.
This was found to be the case when
the United States went to war with
Germany. And that something which
is going to happen, unless the United
States wakes up, is the demand and
the taking of their rights by former
service mem of the United States.
True it is, that the soldier who saw
service during the World War didn't
do it for compensation, but it isn't
right to let lot of fellows make a
lot Of Jack" when the fellows who
took the soldiers jobs-and kept them
should have been the soldiers tent
mates.

resolution now pending in Congress, is ap-

sumner ought to know why he has to pay on the
average nearly three times as much as the
farmer receives"
The creation of this commission would give
some reason to believe the answer would be
found. If the commission be in earnest and its
investigation be thorough, it should be able to
put its finger on the persons and institutions
that have been collecting unjustly.

Indeed the driving power behind
the whole movement was the idea of
doing away with false, discredited
forms of democracy that played into
the hands of the few professionals or
political experts who have always
thrived in the complexities of city
government.
Since the commissioners Cor coun-
cilmen) are directors of policy only,
and therefore are only required to de-
vote a few hours a week to public
business, the people are free to ex-
pand their field of selection beyond
the old list of chronic job holders, and
consider representative citizens whose
private business affairs are too big
to be relinquished for an old-style
city job,
The city-manager plan, moreover,
lends itself perfectly to a scheme Of
representation that gives voice to
every considerable element in the
town.
What this, means in practice is best
illustrated By the composition Of the
councils in Ashtabula and Sacramento.
These cities have proportional repre-
sentation" - which is referred to
Familiarity as "P. R."--which is an
other way of saying that under this
system of voting each man in the
council stands for q group Of citizens
who have common interest and think
pretty much alike on public affairs.
The result of such plan is a gov
erning body which is bound to be an
excellent miniature of the whole city.
Here, for example, is the composition
Of the council in one city which adopt

reputable physician, a popular wealthy
lawyer, an advertising manager with

Of Commerce and a vigorous, liberal
young business man.

that proprietors insist that the stamps be used,
