IutitructionK for Butter Makeni.
(By Elizabeth Forney, Agent in j
Dairying, Wlnthrop College, Kock
Hill, S. C.
1. Procedure Clean Milk mul Cream.
Butter making begins with the production
of the milk. Wash and dry
udder of cow before milking. Clean
dry hands and clean clothes for the
milker are essential.
The thorough cleaning and sterilizing
of all dairy utensils is essential
thn nrrwllictlmi of huttor Of good
flavor. Do not use runty pails. Always
/inse milk vessels with cool or
tepid water to remove all milk. Then
wash in liot water containing a small
* i.mount of washing powder and scrub
with a brush. Scald in boiling water,
then drain by their own heat. Do not
use soap on dairy utensils.
2. Care of Cream.
Cool milk immediately after'milking.
Cold water around the vessel
containing the milk is one of the best
ways to reduce temperature. Keep
milk covered to protect from flies and
dust.
Where as many as six or more cows
are kept it generally pays to have a
separator. Where fewer cows than
six are kept, the cream may be handslimmed.
After the cream is skimmcd
off, keep in a cool place and add
to it the cream from other milkings,
until enough is secured for churning.
Stir cream thoroughly each time more
is added. Never mix Warm and cold
cream or warm and cold milk together.
3. Hipcniiig or Souring of Cream.
to ripen crua.ni, warm 10 irum ua
to 75 degrees F. and hold at that temperature
until a mild-acid flavor is developed.
This may he done by placing
the vessel of milk in hot water
until it reaches the desired temperature.
A thermometer should always
he used in order to know that proper
temperatures have been obtained. If
the whole milk is to he used, it is best
to let it clabber. If cream is used, do
not allow it to clabber or get too sour;
stir occasionally as it ripens. Cream
that is overripe (too sour) makes poor
butter.
'1. Churning Temperature.
Hold milk or cream at churning
temperature for at least 2 hours before
churning. This temperature
should he such that (1) the churning
will require from 30 to -10 minutes,
and (2) the butter granules will
be firm without being hard?usually
from 52 to 00 degrees in summer and
from 58 to (!t'> degrees in winter. For
whole milk it will be from GO to 70
degrees.
5. Preparing the Churn.
Clean and scald the churn, then
cool thoroughly with cold water. The
butter paddles, worker, and printer
should bo treated in the same way
when needed.
(5. Straining and Cooling.
l'our cream through coarse strainer
into churn. In winter it is advisable
to add S to 10 drops of a pure
vegetable butter color for each pound
of butter you expect to get.
7. Kind of Churn.
The best churns are those that secure
the most agitation of the milk
by revolving or throwing it against
the inside of the churn. Any churn
that depends solely on the dasher
will not secure all the butter for it
does not agitate the cream thoroughA
ly enough.
K. Churning.
When the butter granules are the
size of a small pea, stop 'churning.
Keep butter in the granular stage.
!?. Washing Butter.
When the butter has reached the
granular stage, drain off the butter
milk through a fine strainer to catch
ptirtieles of butter. Add as much wasi:
water sis you have buttermilk and oi
about, the same temperature. After
adding water turn the churn a few
times to g.t all the milk l'rom the
butter granules, buttermilk must )h
washed out, not worked out. Drain
off water and repeat above process
until water is clear. Usually two
washings are enough. The butfer
should still be in granular form when
washing is completed. .

spoonful of table salt for each pound
of butter. Work until salt is dissolved
and evenly distributed, and a solid i ,
smooth body is formed. The best but- J ,
,ter has a waxy body, a bright appearance,
and when a slab is broken, a
grain like broken steel. Overworked
butter has a sticky, salvy body, a dull
greasy appearance and a gummy |
grain.
11. Printing tlic Butter.
I bitter for market should bo in J
brick shaped prints, wrapped in j
I parchment paper and inclosed in i
1 araffined eartons. j
12. Washing the .Churn. j
The churn and other equipment J.
should be washed according to di- <
ructions given for milk utensils. Place <
in the sunshine to keep sweet.
Directions for Mailing Butter.
Pack the carton in a heavy paper j
box or several thicknesses of heavy J
paper. Wrap and tic securely, then |
paste on the addressed, franked en- |
velop which your agent will supply
you with. Be sure to put your name
and address on the out "ide of the
package. Then give it to the postmaster
or rurat carrier. It will not '
need postage.
For more detailed instructions re- '
fer to Farmer's Bulletin 87C "Making
Butter on the Farm."
Conditions that Make Churning Difficult.
The farm buttermukec falls to olj- i
tain butter after churning the usual ,
length of time; in fact, the churning |
is sometimes prolonged for several
hours without obtaining butter. The ,
cause of the difficulty, together with
the remedies, are as follows:
1. Churning temperature too low. '
It may be necessary, undoi* exceptional
conditions, to raise it to between
Co degrees and "0 degrees F.
2. Cream too thin or too rich. It
should contain about SO per vent butterfat.
S. Cream too sweet, if ripened to I
a moderate acidity it will churn more |
easily.
i. Churn Loo full. In order to oh-I
tain the maximum concussion the
"churn should be not more than onethird
full.
5. Itopy formation of the cream j
preventing concussion. This may be j
prevented by sterilizing all the uten- j
sils anil producing the milk and
cream under the most sanitary conditions.
If additional measures are
needed, the- pa?t^urinntH<u?-ef- the
cream, with subsequent protection
from contamination, and ripening it
with a good starter, sour milk will be
effective.
0. Individuality of the cow. The
only remedy is to obtain cream from
cow recently fresh, or cream that is
known to churn easily, and before
ripening mix it with the cream thdt
is diflicult to churn.
7. The cow being far advanced in
the period of lactation. The effects
may be at least partially overcome
by adding, before ripening. some
cream from a cow that is not far advanced
in the period of lactation.
8. Poods that produce hard fat.
Such foods are cottonseed meal and
timothy hay. Succulent foods such as
silage and roots tend to overcome the
condition. (Frmer's Bulletin No. S7G.)
WOMEN DEMANDING EQUALITY

The feminists have stormed the
White House, and demanded of President
Harding that he support legislation
which will make woman, in reality,
the equal of man. It is said that

The legislation the women demand
is regarded as simple on Its face. Rut

It generalizes rather. than

will be necessary if it is ever to
set through congress. At any rate,
that, ftocmft to be the Judgment of con- I
servutive monitors of the legislative j
department of the government.
One of the ablest and most :iggrea- 1

"There is no inspiration in darn- I

take a hand at doing up ihe dishes

over last season's pants? Then why
should a woman use up her energy
in such work?"
It. is this idea of feminine independence
that the feminists, are determined
to write into organic law. And
there is much of divorce and illegitimacy
of children, division of profits
and inheritance.

the Baby" campaign have been made
.in thirty counties of South Carolina,
according to Dr. D. Besesne Smith,
chairman of the campaign which is
being put on by the South Carolina
Sunday, school association for Children's
Week, April .24?May 1st.
The aim of the campaign was to
i*each 10,000 babies, but prospects are
that more than 15,000 babies will be
reached. The campaign is ft&ld to
have two-fold purpose, enrolling the
babies on the Cradle Rolls of the
tSunday schools and giving informaitlon
about their early training, and
second to give their mothers scientific
Information about their physical
care. This campaign is said to be
very timely because of these facts
issued by the State Bureau of Child
Hygiene:
4,456. babies under one year of age
died last year in South Carolina.
25 per cent of all deaths In South
Carolina are of children under five
years of age.
ADout one-fifth of deaths occur
during the single month of July and
the great percentage of them from
cholera infantum, which is a preventable
disease.
