New York, July 7. Ducks aren't
the only creatures that love to take a
promenade on rainy days. All the
dear feminine creatures of the human
race are just crazy about summer
showers now that the swagger new
ainy day sets of oilsilk coat and hat
are for sale. No wonder, for they are
awfully ducky too.
Each sweetheart, wife and mother
finds she is a little rain dear in these
slick new outfits, but alas, every hus
band and father finds the ruin a little
dear for him also.

who advit-' you to put a little away
for a rainy day. Father finds it wiser
to put away a lot against the coming
of this 1916 rainy season.

A five per cent solution of v.le
pepsin in .witter, used at the rate of
four ounces of solution to HKI'l pounds

to cheese manufacturers of Oregon.
Leading manufacturers of rennet, ex

may prove a satisfactory solution of
xne proiuem. uregon ctieip men ae
advised to try out this pepsin as n
rennet substitute before the supply of
rennet is entirely exhausted. The first
pepsin cheese made at the College,
May 31, has been sampled both during
the makeup and up to the present
time. No extensive investigations
have been conducted as to the keeping
qualities of the pepsin-made cheese.
Soluable pepsin scales were used.
These were dissolved in water at the
rate of one. ounce of pepsin to one and

must be made up fresh each day a

The solution was added in the snme
proportion as rennet, that is , 4 ounces
solution to 1(100 poiuids of milk.
Comparing the strength' of this solu
tion with that of the rennet, the nep-
sin coagulated the cample in 47 sec
onds, the rennet in oO seconds. The
ini'k was set at SC degrees V. ami at

minutes from the time of setting to
cutting. The loss of fat in whey
amounted to .2(1 to .;! of one per cent,
the oiiginal milk testing 4.S per cent
fat. After setting, the process of
handling the curd is exactly the same
as when set with rennet extract.
In order to bring the rennet back to
normal it is absolutely necessary that
cheese makers throughout the country
cooppiato in every way with rennet
manufacturers buying from fanners
and local slaughter houses. Some load
ers in this movement have gone so far
as to suggest that rennet should he

in turn supply the manufactured ren.
net for extract making. This is for the
