Perfect sanitation In the process of mm

purity, Is largely responsible for tho
rnorraous business built up by the
creamery people In the last few yenrt.
Jurt how this perfection In butter mak
ing Is attained can perhaps best bo pre

of manufacture from the ttmo tho cream

When the Cream Arrims.
In the center of the building on tiie
north side1 is a largo room called the
receiving room. From tho cement ship
ping platform that front the building
on the south and west sides the crem,
which comes In cans. Is whcoled to 'he
receiving room to bo weighed. The
weight Is registered, after which a sam
ple of the cream Is taken from each can
and submitted to what Is known as the
Uabcock test to determine Just how rlrh
In butter fat it Is. Tills test takes place
In a separate room called the "testing"
room. After the rest of the cream lias
been emptied Into a huge vat to be
pumped Into the pasteurising room, tho
cans nro thoroughly scoured threo times
and then sterilised with live steam be
fore they are ready' to be returne-I to
the shipper.
For Sanitary Purposes.
To further provide against oven tho
slightest possibility of contamination the
pumps' that carry the cream on its next
step to tho pasteurising room are espe
cially fashioned to meet the demands of
sanitation. The process of pasteurisation
consists of heating tho cream to a
Fahrenheit temperature of 170 dofrreos,
at which temperature It Is kept for an
hour arid a half after passing Into the
retarding vat. After being subjected to
JK.
the heat for that length of time all
bacteria Is destroyed. ; From the retard
ing vat the cream goes to the cooler.
The pasteurizing process, however, has

mixed with the cream. What is known
as "ripening," which Is the next step,
Is brought about by running the blended
croam and milk through, a series of ten
pipe vats. It Ib then ready to be
churned, for which purpose tho creamery
Is equipped with five enormous revolving
churns, and In a short time the butter
Is ready to bo taken out. Up to this
time the butter In tho process of Us
making has come in contact with not a
single human hand.
-Weighing the Rolls.
Big ladles aro used to take the butter
front the chums, and sterilized barrows
are used td wheel It Into a room where
It Is molded Into pound rolls and
weighed. Great care is taken that each
roll weighs the full pound. This work
Is handled by a. corps of white-clad men;
a day. On one side are the storage
aults, which have a Capacity of 376 tons,
with an added capacity of COO tons for
Ice, totaling, altogether atmost 900 tons.
The store room, which Is on the upper
floor of the building, Is a depository for
miscellaneous materials, such as box
materials, extra machinery parts, eld
flies, books, records, etc.
Then there Is the power plant on the
ground floor, which makes the groat In
stitution move. This consists of a 150
kllowatt dynamo and a smaller G0-kllo-
watt dynamo; a tltanlo electrical appara
tus, capable or manufacturing 2J0 tons
of lco a day. The 400-horse power bat
teries of two boilers each operate tho
machines and dynamos, giving tho plant
an operatjyo energy of 1,600 horse power.

Tho girl started at these strange words

"You mean to tell me, then," she de

question a man can ask a woman Just
to gratify an Idle whim, frivolously, and
with no seriousness of purpose?"
"Not at all, my dear Miss Blithers,

Hi-tat BeaisUns.
There'll no noli surprised person In
the vicinity than tho map. who' struggles
to a sitting posture with a tire around
his neck and views the remains of hla
auto.
If the brain power ot the average foot
boll player were equal to his punting,
tackling and running power, the Intel
lectual world would get many a bump.
There ought to be tome method by
which tho man with six children. Includ
ing twins, might make a deal to his
profit with some richer man with no
offspring.
Tho man who always waits for the
alarm clock to go oft generally waits in
lire for Bomo other things that might
be secured by voluntary early rising.
