BETTER QUALITY OF BUTTER
Article Sells on Its Merits as to Flavor,
Taste and Color Control
Flavors and Odors.
Butter Is used primarily to lmprovo
tho palntnblllty of foods for human
consumption. It sells on its merits ns
to taste, flavor nnd color, though somo
nre Influenced by Us texture. Color
may bo produced nrtltlclnlly In n way
to please tho most particular person
and it therefore becomes of secondary
Importance to the producer ; It docs not
Imply quality, but oftlmcs n rich color
will compensate for a lack of other
qualities. ,
Flavors and odors In butter may be
controlled to n ccrtnln extent by care
In feeding and handling cows. Tho
volatile fats in milk nre quick to ab
sorb odors, either from feeds during
the process of digestion and assimila
tion in the cow or from strong odors
coming in contact with the milk nfter
it has been drawn. The latter may bo
obviated by keeping tho stable and
utensils sweet nnd clean, free frqm
dust nnd all objcctionnble odors. When
disinfectants are used about the sta
bles enro must bo exercised to air tho
stables thoroughly, for the milk will
absorb tho odor of disinfectants In a
remarkably brief time. The most .ef
fective plan is to disinfect as soon as
tho cows are turned out, then air tho
stables well for at least three or four
hours.
AGE OF USEFULNESS OF COWS
Twenty-Two-Ycar-Old Jersey In Wis
consln Produced Forty Pounds of
Butterfat In Month.
Wisconsin has n twcnty-two-ycar-old
Jersey cow In one of her cow-testing
associations that recently made 40
pounds of - butterfat In one month.
Sweet Brlnr, n Guernsey cow, did
profitable work nt the Minnesota ex
periment station up to her seventeenth
Excellent Dairy Type.
year, and Cylcne, n Holsteln cow in the
same Institution nnd nt the same uge,
will this year produce over 400 pounds
of butterfat. Tho nge of usefulness of
the majority of dairy cows that meet
with no accident, is probably between
twelve and fourteen years, but fre
quently dairy cows give splendid profit
beyond these years, us the above cases
Illustrate.
GRADE OF AMERICAN BUTTER
Quality Is Poor on Account of Poor
Cream UGed in Manufacture
Foreign Make Is Better.
Imported butter does uot reach our
markets In ns fresh condition as our
own butter, consequently the majority
of It sells ns second-grade. In mnny
cases It leaves the point of production
ns a first-class article, but is so long in
transit that it deteriorates and arrives
as second-grnde butter. Unfortunate
ly the majority of Amerlcan-mado but
ters are also second-grade. This is not
because It cannot reach the market nt
once, but because it is mado from a
poor quality of cream. The American
farmer Is not producing us good quul
lty of cream as his foreign brother.
HIGH GRADE BUTTER PRICES
Producers of First-Class Articles Are
Realizing Nice Margin Over
Inferior Product.
First-grade butter is still in big de
mand In this country and the pro
ducers of good butter nre realizing a
nlco margin In price over tho producers
of second grade butter. Because of
foreign competition with our second
grade butter the dln'orence in price be
tween first-grade and second-grndo Is
wide. Ffirelgn competition bus not
materially Increased the supply of
first-grades, while tho supply of sec
onds has been increased tremendously.
REPAIRS FOR WOODEN SILOS
Huge Receptacle Is .Liable to Be
Wrenched by Wind Best to Tight
en Up Loose Staves.
The wooden silo In summer Is liable
to be wrecked or wrenched by tho
wind, especially If It has no roof.
Spend a little time In tightening tho
hoops after the staves become dry.
As a precaution against high winds
run two or thre stays of heavy wiro
tJ somo permanent objects a tree,
barn or heavy post set llnnly In tho
ground. Give It a coat of pulnt on the
outside and creosote on the Inside.

SOME GOOD MEATS.
For n small family with limited
means u roast Is out of the question,
for a roast to be
juicy and delicious
must weigh nt the
least flvo to six
pounds. A smaller
roast Is dry and un
palatablc, losing Its
julco nnd flavor.
When a ronst Is
much desired, it
might bo served when entertaining
company, and oven then, there will bo
such nn array of leftover meat that
tho family will be tired of It before It
Is used.
A roast should be placed in a very
hot oven at first to scar It, then the
hent Is reduced and after twenty min
utes count the time, giving it fifteen
minutes to the pound for nlcnt served
rare, twenty for meat well done.
Red ments. beef and mutton, uro the
most digestible, taking about threo
hours to digest, while veal and pork
take four and five. Much depends
upon the method cookery ns to Its di
gestibility, however; any kind of meat
well cooked nnd seasoned is more di
gestlblo than that not properly pre
pared. Sour Beef. This, is a favorite Ger
man method of serving beef. Take
a pound nnd a hnlf of beef, using the
tough or cheaper cuts; cut tho meat
Into Inch squares nnd brown in n little
hot fat. Add two tahlcspoonfuls of
flour to the fat in tho pan after re
moving the meat; when brown, add
two cupfuls of Avatcr or stock nnd stir
until boiling. Put In meat, cook slow
ly for nn hour, then ndd two onions,
salt nnd pepper to taste nnd nt the Inst
a tablcspoonful of Worcestershire
sauce nnd fhe samo of vlnegnr. Con
tinue cooking until he meat is tender.
Sprlnklo with chopped parsley nnd
serve.
Beef Gumbo. A savory dish Is made
from a round of beef, using n pound
and a half, cutting into Inch squares
and browning in hot fnt. Add two
sliced onions, four tomatoes nnd a
dozen okrn pods cut in pieces. Season
lllghly und ndd flvo cupfuls of water.
Cover and stew for three hours very
dowly.

and served with drawn butter nnd n
few chopped pickles, baked In layers
with mashed potatoes, fried In butter

bit of acid Is especially nttrnctlvo with
