General RejoIcing.-It is well known that

Therefore, il these concessions are to be

an yadvantage in coming to this district.
And as a result, there will be general re-
joicing among the business men and citizens

Care Of MIX and Cream

Milk, whether to be sold In tsa
natural state or to be separated, should
be removed from the stable immediate.
1y after milking. IL 1t is not to be
separated 1t should be cooled at once
to temperature of 80 degrees +. or
lower and held there until disposed Of.
The separator win produce cream OF
better quality than Il possible with any
other means OF separation. II a sep
arator Is used, 1t should be thoroughly
washed and scalded after each time II
Is used. IL the milk Is to be hand
SKINNED, 1t should be put into ~shot-
gun" cans for the cream to rise, and
the cans should be well covered to
keep dust and insects out and be kept
in a room free from odors. This Is
better than putting the milk into shall
low vessels.
The cream sours more quickly than
rich cream. With a rich cream there
is also less bulk to handle. more akim
milk for feeding purposes, and the
cream is in better condition to make
into butter. It is desirable to skim
the milk so as to produce a cream
containing between 80 and IS per cent
of butter fat. A great advantage In
using a separator is that the richness
of the cream can be easily regulated.
Cream sours very readily at tempera-
lures above so degrees F.; hence it
should be kept as much below this
temperature as possible.
II warm cream is mixed with cold
cream, the whole mass Is warmed
thereby, and souring will follow more
quickly; therefore the newly separated
cream should be cooled before adding
it to the cream on hand. A thorough
stirring each time newly separated
cream is added to other cream will
bring all to an even temperature.
The cream should be kept In clean.
well-Yentilated place, in order that
odors may not be taken up by it. II
cream Is sold to the ice-cream or re-
tall trade, it should be delivered daily.
If sold to the creamery, 1t should be
delivered at intervals so frequent that
it will reach the creamery in good con-
dition. If properly cared for. cream
need not be delivered oftener that
twice a week in the winter and three
times during the summer. Cream cans
should be protected with blankets dur
ing delivery In the summer months, TO
prevent marked rise In the temperar
ture OF the cream.

The cactus solution has tendency
to ferment, 80 that experiments were
made to determine preservatiYes. It
was found that the addition of dissoIv-

the solution kept perfectly for about
four weeks. The copper sulphate prac-
tically did not interfere with the effect
Of the arsenicals. Similarly II was
found that the addition OF one-fourth

of cactus liquid or one-quarter pound
Of sodium benzoate dissolved In
small quantity Of alcohol and added
to so gallons of water preserved the

All food consumed by the fowl must
pass from the crop into the gizzard,
where it Is ground and prepared for
assimilation. Unless the fowls are
supplied with an abundance of good
sharp grit the food can not thus be
prepared, and in consequence the fowl
will suffer very much az does q person
from an attack OF indigestion or dys'
pepsia.
The natural construction OF the
fowls digestive organs points to seed
or grain diet. No provision other than
that of assimilation is made for the
moisture taken into the crop. The
fowls must have water, both to soften
the food when taken into the crop and
to enable the gizzard to grind 1t more
easily. The hen must also be pro-
We'd with water to finish the egg which
she lays

COW PEAS
Are Excellent For an Eea-Producing
Food

Cow peas are not only relished by
hens, but 1t is excellent egg food for
them. One successful poultryman
gives this experience. The peas. after
matured, were harvested and stored in
dry lofts, and thrown to the fowls In
scratching pens. where they were
scratched over and searched for dur
ing the whole day. After :. few daJs
the egg supply was ylsibly increased,
and within few weeks almost doubled
that from an equal number of hens
kept in separate quarters and fed on
other grains. The hens seemed to like
the small branches and leaves. and
would eat every particle except the
hard, stiff stems. The general health
of the flock was excellent, and not a
single hen showed The least symptom
of ailment during the winter season.
Considering the ease with which COW
peas may be raised, 1t seems that
everyone should give them a test as
food for the poultry.
