FISHER, The Outdoor Aittst, Tic Butler Dye Works BUTTER FROM ONE COW. 4 Homemade Creamer Thai Is Tre ferred to the l wo* Pans. A correspondent of the Kural New Yorker tells her way of making butter from one cow with much less care and expense and more satisfactorily than by the pan system. She says: We had used a creamer with butter work er, swing churn and pound printer with a fine herd of Jersey cows, mak ing a fine quality of butter, and when a change in our business made it nec essary for us to keep only one cow we naturally wanted to make as good but ter with less machinery. After some consideration we evolved a plan that has been very satisfactory. We bought two one gallon carrying palls, such as dairymen use, and bad a tinner insert a tube one-half inch aud flaring to three-quarters on the outside at the bottom of each pail, the tube to be one inch in length. These tubes are to be fitted securely with corks. The covers should have three holes punched in them for venti lation. The whole cost of these small creamers was not over 20 cents. If v. there is a rim at / tbe bottom of the j \ pail holes may be / \ punched In It to £ 1 help in the cool- V 1 Ing, but they are ( not really essen tial. The diagram shows the cream er. A candy pall or tub deep enough to hold water to come up as high as the milk in the can -j aud plenty of or dinary well wa- A CREAJIEB ter is all that is needed to set the milk for cream rais ing. Well water nt 45 degrees is suffi cient to raise the cream in twelve hours, but if one has ice It will save the changing of water at each milking, and colder water will raise the cream more quickly. In summer we set our milk in the cellar near our well, chang ing the water at each milking In hot test weather, but in cooler weather It may be set on the back porch or any convenient place where it may not freeze. We prefer to have our cow fresh in September and make winter butter aud with this plan can have but ter equally as good as in summer. We have two creamers for the first flush of milk and use only one later. The milk is strained directly into the can and set In cold water to the depth of the milk, with enough water so as to cool the milk. The cream is raised in twelve hours. Care must be taken when draw ing off the skim milk, for the force of a full can Is considerable. Draw off until the cream begins to show, hold ing the cork to lessen the rapid flowing and stop the cream. Shake the can un til the cream is all loosened and pour It into a jar to be set In a cool place where it may keep sweet until there Is enough for a churning. High Prices For Cheese. To me one of the most gratifying fea tures of the dairy business is the ex ceedingly high price of cheese. It is usually very unfortunate for any com modity to reach a point where the cost becomes prohibitive In this case It will, of course, have an unfavorable influence, but it will be Insignificant compared to the fact that we are be ginning to know the value of good full cream cheese and that at usual prevail ing prices It is a cheap food. Almost anything in a box will bring 12 cents, and some of the finest grades are not on the market at any price. The cheese making sections have not enlarged and developed as rapidly as the butter dis tricts largely on account of the supe- rior value of skim milk over whey. Sweet milk from the separator, an un derstanding how to balance it up with the grains and the fact that upon it young animals make the most satisfac tory and profitable growth have aided in swelling the butter output.— H. E. Cook in National Stockman. Feedlnt the Fall PJfi. From now on mix the fped for the young pigs one feed ahead, and you may, with good results, add a half spoonful of ollmeal for each pig and Increase as they get larger. Put a lit tle shelled corn In the feed and let it soak from one feed to another. Also Increase this as time goes on. If they can follow around after cattle that are fed corn It will be sufficient corn for them and will give them their needed exercise. The cattle keep the snow tramped down, and the pigs will keep pretty busy. You should always aim to have a southern exposure protected on the windward side by a high, tight board fence and on the north by a building, where the sun's rays will be reflected sq it will thaw on a sunshiny day while it freezes in more unprotect ed places —Orange Judd Farmer. One Caoae of Poor Mlllc. Competition is no mean influencing agent. It is a well known fact that in our smaller places reliable farmers have attempted to produce a good quality of milk for their customers and to sell it at a fair price. Their charges estimated from cost of production have been very reasonable, say 6 cents per quart. After starting some irresponsi ble man would mftertake to sell milk at 3, 4 or 5 cents per quart. Conse quently the good'milk >va§ soon crowd ed out, and there was left upon the market only this poor quality of milk. This Irresponsible man could then raise the price of hit juilk.~C, L- Marshall.
