Save Production Cost by Better
Care of Milk-The cost of raising,
feeding and milking one extra dairy
cow can be saved in many herds by
better care of milk and cream on
the farm, declares the Blue Valley
Creamery Institute. Such a saving
is possible because of the premium
paid for sweet cream over the top
market price for good sour cream .
Where the highest price for sour
cream is 35 cents pound for butter
fat, premius for sweet cream
makes the cash returns from
ten cows on farms from which sweet
cream is sold almost equal to those
of eleven cows on those same farms
when the cream is sold sour. When
the cost of keeping that extra COW is
considered, the net profits per cow in
the sale of sweet cream will be found
to be almost ten per cent higher than
those received when cream is sold
sour.
The sale of sweet cream from
every farm is made possible during
the warmest summer weather by
washing utensils and separator parts
thoroughly after each milking and
cooling the cream in cold water inn
mediately after separation. Cream
thus produced and kept in cold water
and not mixed with warm cream un-
til after it has been cooled can be
kept sweet till it reaches the cream
cry, if sold frequently.
One of the big problems of dairy
ing in summer is "foamy cream. y
This is caused by the presence in
cream Of yeast cells. These yeasts
| get into the cream from many sour
ces, the most common of which are
remnants of milk, cream, separator
slime or wash water left in the sep
arator bowl after use, and cause
foaminess quickest in cream that is

Highway Traffic Census
Being Taken in Minnesota
Check Of Vehicles on Trunk Roads
Made This Week by State High
way Department

Traffic on trunk highways in
Stearns county is being counted this
week by checkers employed by the
State Highway department. The
check on vehicles in this county is
part Of the traffic census which is
being taken throughout the state.
The census this year began Mon
day Aug. 9 and will continue until
Sunday, Aug. Is. This is two weeks
earlier than the census has been TAX
en- in former years, but it was believ-
ed that week early in August is
closer to normal traffic than a later
period.
County will be made in most cases
at the same stations as last year, with
a few new stations added. There
will be a total of 1862 stations and
221 counts made. This is explained
by the fact that in some cases the
checkers are stationed close to the
junction of two trunk highways
where they can count the traffic on
both roads.
The check will include a count of
all vehicles from A. M. to midnight
each day. Records will be kept of
Minnesota vehicles by classes such

Irregular Quality of Eggs Forces

The lighter receipts Of butter on
the principal consuming markets in
dictate continued decrease in pro-
duction. Reports of arrivals on the
four largest markets Of the United
States show a heavier decrease than
any preceding week since the flush
producing season. General quality
has been affected by hot weather in
the Middle West and this fact coupled
with lighter production has had a
steadying tendency on markets and

to highways by tractors have come
to the department recently. In one
recent report it was stated that the
cost of repairing the damage, where
a tractor had followed tarred road
several miles, would be greater than
the list price of the tractor.
The damage is not so serious on
lightly oiled roads where the material
is somewhat loose so that blade grad
ers can be used, says the bulletin.
But on roads that are more heavily
tarred, it may take crew of men
several days to repair the damage
done by tractor on stretch of a
mile.
The bulletin suggests that tractor
operators remove the Jugs, when this
is possible, or else take side road.
Usually this can be done without
greatly increasing the distance.
Maintenance patrolmen caution trac-
tors operators but frequently the ma
chine may run some distance before
meeting one Of the patrolmen.
Comparatively few reports have
been received of damage to paved
roads, because operators generally
know that machines with Tugs or mud
hooks will damage the surface, but
some apparently do not realize the
damage which may be done on an
oiled or tarred road.
The state law makes it a INSIDE
meanor to operate any motor vehicle
or traction engine upon any highway
with Tugs or other hard protuberan-
ces which damage the surface, except
in places and at times when neces.
sary.

wagons and buggies, and cars carry

The census taking is handled
through the district maintenance
superintendent. The reports are
forwarded from the district head
quarters to the central office for tab
ulation.
The traffic census is used by the
highway department as a guide in
planning future construction, and to
build roads to fit the traffic. 1t also
serves as guide in the distribution
of maintenance funds and it enables
the department to ascertain the cost
per vehicle per mile on the different
types of road.

warm. Foaminess can be minimized
and prevented through thorough
washing and rinsing of separator
bowl after each separation. Cooling
the cream by setting the can in as
cold water as is available on the
farm and holding it in the cooling
water and in the shade until the can
leaves the farm, goes long ways
toward the prevention of foamy
cream. More frequent shipping, even
though smaller cans be used, is also
helpful in many cases in avoiding
foaminess.

HOUSEHOLD HINTS

Making a Breakfast Nook"
If you have a good-sized kitchen in
your home-with more than ample
space in which to work-my sugges-
ton would be that you convert a part
of it to arrangement of Breakfast
Nook" Or, if there's large pantry
connected with the kitchen, have
part of the partition removed and
turn that into a place that can be
made quite cozy for breakfast pur-
poses.
In furnishing it, my recommendations
are:
Have built-in seats and tables. paint
them attractively to harmonic with
your kitchens colors. And add new
dainty curtains, if necessary, to match.
To Remove Flower Pot Stains
Cover flower pot stains with wood
Aehes. Rub gently. Rinse off window
sill with cold water.
Freshen Your Grass Rugs
Dye your soiled grass rugs some
solid color. Dissolve 2 packages of
dye in 2 quarts of water. Apply with
a paint brush. Dye first on the wrong
side and then on the right side.

PROBATION OFFICERS
IMPORTANT WORK

Probation Of1cer Edward c. Con-
molly is not often within the spot
light of publicity, but his depart
ment is constantly at work endeav-
oring to straighten out the manifold
difficulties that come under his
Jurisdiction. That he is uniformly
successful is evident from his state
ment that numerous instances OF
domestic upheavals never reach a
courtroom, due to the conciliating
efforts proffered.
The annual report of the proba-
ton officer, rendered Judge Alling,
gives a birds eye view of the city's
efforts made through the officer.
That the work incident thereto has
steadily increased until there is
difficulty in meeting all the re-
quirements Is evident from his
plea for the appointment of a full
time stenographer and office as
slstant. In a department as vital to
the social welfare Of the city as
that of the probation officer the re-
quest does not seem unreasonable,
especially considering the likelihood
of improved attention to the work
that would result.

COMMENCING COOLIDGE
FOR SENTIMENTS

President Coolidge Is to be COM
mended for favoring early action in
setting up a mediation board in the
anthracite industry, board such
as now functions in the railroad In
dustry as a result of the passage Of
the Watson-Parker bill.
Congress at the last session dilly-
dallied about the subject and did
nothing. During the recent coal
strike feeling was strong for fed
eral law capable of meeting such
emergencies; but while Congress
was in session the strike was ended
and the need for action apparently
expired-in the estimation of Con-
gress.
If the President is sincere-as no
one doubts - he will press for ac-
ton on a coal bill at the next Con-
gress. He will receive the unstinted
commentator of the public for so
doing Although the strike compro-
mise is to last for five years, that
is no argument for waiting until
the next strike comes along before
setting up mediation machinery.
