GOOD BUTTER-MAKING RULES
Best Churning Temperature Is 58 De
grees on Ordinary Thermometer
Care for Cream.
(Clomson Collogu llullc(lii.)
Cream Is made up of little fat glob
ules floating In milk. In making but
ter the fat globules are brought to
gether Into n mass and the milk Is re
moved ns buttermilk. These fat glob
ules will stick better when they nro
Just the right temperature than they
will If either too warm or too cold. A
good temperature for churning Is fi8
degrees on an ordinary thermometer.
When the cream Is the right sourness
it churns better than when sweet or
too sour. The cream should be kept
nt CO degrees or lower till the day be
fore churning. Then warm It up to 70
degrees, or room bent, which will bring
about tlie souring by thu next day.
When the barrel Churn Is used, al
low gas to escape every few minutes
at first. When the butter begins to
come keep a close watch and stop
churning when the' butter granules
:ire tho size of wheat kernels. Draw
iff tho buttermilk and wash In the
rhurn repeatedly with cold water till
tho buttermilk Is nil removed. Then
remove the butter from churn and
work It with a paddle. Add an. ounce
of salt per pound of butter.
MANNER OF HANDLING SILAGE
When Time for Feeding Top Layer,
Which Has Molded, Should Be
Removed Heap Top Level.
(Clomson CoHcro Bulletin.)
When the time comes for feeding
sllngo the top layer, which will be
found to be molded, should bo re
aioved. The molded part usually ex
tends for scverni Inches below the
surface. At least tw Inches of silage
should be fed each day In order to
prevent tho formation of the mold.
The top of the silage should bo kept
level so as to expose the smallest sur
face possible to the air. Only enough
silage for one feeding should bo put
out, as It soon dries out If not fed nt
once.
ROUGHAGE OF HIGH QUALITY

Cows Responsible.
Success In dairying Is based on tho
production of high qunllty roughage.
The truth of this basic principle of
dnlry farm management finds support
In estimates recently made by the New
York State college of the average dulry
cow's product In that state. The nver
ogo New York cow Is credited with only
$00.09 total Income yearly. The cost
of maintaining her Is estimated at
$01.85, not including tho cost of labor.
The difference nmountlng to only $4.25

cured for 20 cows n yearly wage of
$85 which Is less than the lowest wage
paid to ordinary farm labor. Scrub
cows nre lurgely responsible, it Is said,
for this poor showing In New York
and the college ndvlscs that they bo
weeded out If dairy herds are to be
profitable to the farmer. These herds
may be Improved greatly by better
breeding methods and by eliminating
the culls. Behind the cows lies the
farm on which they nre kept. If tho
form Is not properly mannged, the
cows are laboring under a Bevero han
dicap. FIRST FEED FOR YOUNG CALF
Skim Milk Is Given Soon a Prac
ticable and Continued Until Ani
mal Is Six Months Old.
At first the calf is fed whole milk,
tho quantity being gradually Increased.
Skim milk Is substituted as soon ns
practicable and, If cheap, 4s continued
until the cnlf is six months old. Or
dinarily the maximum quantity of skim
milk that can bo fed economically Is
20 pounds a day. When the calf is
two weeks old, grain and bright, clean
hay should be offered; the quantity
fed should bo increased us tho calf's
uppctlto demands.
COMMON CAUSES OF SCOURS
Overfeeding, Milk That la Cold or Sour,
Dirty Palls, Troughs or Stalls
Are Blamed.
Indigestion Is the cause of common
scours. This generally occurs when thq
calf !h from two weeks to a month
old. Prevention Is the best remedy.
The common causes of indigestion arc
overfeeding, feeding milk that Is cold
or sour, feeding sweet milk one menl
and spur tho next, dirty pulls, troughs
or stalls.

Visitors Not Permitted to Intrude on
Great Inventor When He Is Busy
at His Experiments.
Thomns A. Edison's favorlto pur
suit Is chemistry. Even ns a boy
telegraphist getting his first start to
wards a career, this Inclination wns
mnnlfest In his experiments with bat
teries nnd electric devices, and it still
remains his grcntest pleasure, observes
an exchange.
Ills new laboratory Is splendidly
equipped. Every known substance
ranging through all the kingdoms of

availability. It is a collection of over
30 years' standing, encouraged from
time to tlmo by prizes for new addi
tions offered by tho Inventor to his
men.
Ills own laboratory table Is never,
In any circumstances, allowed to bo
touched. A notice posted on tho door
way reads to the effect that Mr. Edi
son Is not to be disturbed In the course
of his experiments except for mntter
of the utmost importance. So fond Is
he of his beloved pastime that he de
clares his Idea of heaven Is to be able
to continue It, nnd his Injunctions to
his stuff are: "When I die I want my
table forwnrded to me by wireless."

"The use of baking powder breads made of corn and other coarse flours instead of
patent wheat flour is recommended by the Conservation Division of the Food
Administration. The wheat needed for export is thus conserved, and at the same
time healthful food for our own people is provided. The circulation of recipes pro
