KEEP CREAM DURING SUMMER
II Cooled to so Degrees Promptly
After Separating 1t viii Keep
Several Days.

The dairyman must figure way to
keep the cream in good condition dur
ing the hot weather months. There is
always someone saying ''cream can't
be kept sweet very long during the
summer MONTHS" but it has been
proven that cream cooled to 80 de-
grees shortly after separating can be
kept sweet for several days.
To accomplish this, it is necessary
to have cooling tank. Such tanks
may be bought from the dairy supply
houses, but if only a small quantity
Of cream is produced a homemade
tank will do the trick. This tank is
made as follows:
Take water barrel and around 1t
make box about feet square by
about the height of the barrel, insert
a pipe leading from the pump into the

barrel extending to the bottom. An
overflow pipe is then placed on the
opposite side of the barrel leading to
the outside of the box. This overflow
pipe should be placed as high as the
neck of large cream can. The intake
pipe from the pump should extend to
the bottom of the barrel as the warm
water then rises and overflows.
The space between the box and the
barrel is filled with sawdust or other
insulator and the box finally covered
to the edge of the barrel. A close fit
ting lid is then placed over the top Of
the barrel and completes the tank.
When a partly filled can is set down
a stick across the barrel above the can
will help to hold it down.-A Miller,

DIR. Edwards Olive Tablets-the

These little olive-colored tablets are
the result Of DR.. Edwards deter.

bowel complaints with calomel.
The pleasant little tablets do the
good that calomel does, but have no
bad after effects. They don't injure
the teeth like strong liquids or calo-

and quickly correct It. Why cure
the liver at the expense of the
teeth? Calomel sometimes plays
havoc with the gums. So do strong

tea time in the fashionable haunts.
One suit that follows the straight

and fashions itself into a simple
straight skirt with a hip-length
jacket. The jacket is scanned to
give a slightly fitted effect, but
the lines are unbroken by any belt.
One button closing and horizontal
pockets are noticeable features.
Another model to please the most
fastidious Is of melrosa tweed with
a Soft cheviot finish in Copenhagen,
tan, green or tomato red, with
braid binding in harmonizing color.
This Is also a box coat. model with
one button finish, and the notched
mannish revers, cuffs and flap
pockets are nicely bound with the
braid. The skirt, like all smart
ones this season, is comfortably
narrow. and not too short.
II you must have a belt on your
suit you will welcome an attractive
little model in a brand-new fabric

tertal with an eponge weave. One
may have the choice Of blue, henna
or cobweb taupe. The jacket shows

three bone buttons. The slim belt
Is of self.material and Is buckled
by a self-covered buckle.
The sports costumes with cape
attached are decidedly new this
season and promise to be very
popular during the coming
months. One striking effect is
carried out In black and white
tweed with contrasting black pip
ings. The outfit consists of a
one-piece frock with collar and
cuffs of white linen, and a cape
attached. The cape, however, is
arranged so that It may be re-
moved when indoors, leaving a
simple, straight line frock with
narrow vestee of white. There
are Sits for the arms to pass
through and these are beautifully
bound with self-material.
