over the treasures they have guarded
for centuries.
But modern invention has made ii
possible for the predatory tourist to
extend his invasion farther and ever
farther from the beaten path. Where
he goes he is too often inclined to
destroy, to take what he desires and
leave nothing in its place. His camp
site in the woods is a place of desc
lation as he strikes his tent and
moves IN. To the tourist family the
wild flowers and the poisoning trees
seem to offer the opportunity for the
practice of vandalism. Nothing is
safe from the hands of greedy visit
Ors.
In a bulletin recently issued by the
University of the State of New York
an appeal is made to protect and save
the wild flowers. 1t is shown that
they are gradually disappearing even
from those sections where they once
were 1t is not what one
person or n company of tourists
gathers. There are still enough wild
flowers and to spare for the thous-
ands who will gather them thought
fully and considerably. The menace
to the wild life of the roadside is the
greed of the city dweller who assumes
that all he can find is his for the TAX
ing.
1t should be remembered that the
wild plant is like the cultivated shrub
or flower in the garden. 1t is as cas-
lily destroyed, and it responds as
quickly to the considerate treatment
it deserves. Those who gather
flowers along the way are admonish-
ed to pick them carefully, just as they
would select a bunch of blossoms
from a garden of conservatory. The
lnmatured blssoms left upon the stalk
may flower and seed, thus renewing
and increasing the beauty of the place
whereas a plant torn up from the
ground and thrown aside is destroy

RICH CREAM---BETTER
QUALITY OF CREAM

There are four important factors
duce a better quality of cream
Cleanliness in producing and handling
the cream; control of temperature on
the farm and in transporting cream
to market frequent delivery of cream
to market; richness of cream.
All the above factors are import
ant for improving the quality of the
cream. Many creamery patrons be-
lieve that sour cream tests higher
than sweet cream and give that as
their reason for not producing sweet
cream. This is a mistake because
the sourness of cream has no appre-
ciable effect on the butter fat con-
tent and does not show a higher test.
Richness of cream has a direct
bearing on the other three factors,
and, since all progressive cream pa
irons have a cream separator, it is
quite important that the creamery
management insist on rich cream,
or cream testing between 35 and As
per cent butter fat. Rich cream will
mean better cream.
In addition to making it possible
to produce better butter and hence
give a higher price to the patron,
rich cream has other very decided
economic advantages over thin cream
For instance, it means that more
skim milk is retained on the farm for
feeding purposes, and the cost for
transportation is materially less, the
benefit of which falls directly upon
the patron.
When the creamery receives both
milk and sweet cream, the cream pa
ron should receive more a pound
'or the butter fat he delivers than
the milk patron, because there
S alweys a certain amount Of butter
at left in the skim milk, and this,
# course, does not reach the cream
at. For every 100 pounds of butter
at delivered to the creamery in the
orm of whole milk only 81 pounds
caches the cream vat, whereas in
he case of cream, all of the butter
at delivered reaches the cream vat.
loss will, of course, vary more
r less, but the above amount, or 3
cent is about the average.
Thin cream makes for lower prices
nd lower production. Rich cream
lakes for higher prices and more
rofits for the producer.-Williams

MAKES APPEAL FOR
The WILD FLOWERS
christian Science Monitor)

Strangely enough, what is called
civilization has, in many parts of the
United States, destroyed many of the
rugged beauties of the woods and
hillsides, without putting anything in
their place. Perhaps in New Eng
land more than anywhere else, many
of the beautiful things have been
preserved. The farms have not en-
croached so relentlessly upon the
woods as in the sections of the middle
west and south, where land is more
valuable. The mountains, too, re-
main a forbidding barrier to the thing
called progress, and stand as sentinels
