nications first Saturday after
the full moon of each month.
All Master Masons cordially
invited.
Whenever milk is s« arce In r>e cities
somebody comes forward and suggest*
that it be shlfqted from distant points
In a frozen condition.
This idea has been frequently sug
gested during the past years, but it does
not seem to I«* coming Into practical
use. The latest suggestion Is that the
fresh milk should be frozen by sub
merging the sealed cans In brine chilled
far below the melting point of ice. The
nd lk would not only be frozen, but
would be cooled still further to a hard,
dry Ice, which, it is claimed, would re
main in the solid form after removal
for a day or two la-fore tile entire
mass would rise to a melting point,
the keeping qualities being much su
perior to that of milk which is merely
frozen at common temperature.
The operating plan would be to es
tablish a freezing plant, at the cream
eries and milk stations, the frozen
product to be shlpiaal In ordinary cans,
thus doing away with the present high
cost of refrigerating cars.
It Is claimed that frozen milk kept
over a month In a refrigerator room
showed no change in taste on thawing,
and that the cream remained evenly
mixed throughout the solid mass, not
rising, as it would when milk is merely
kept liquid at low temperature. Milk
for freezing would need to be in fresh,
clean condition when frozen, else its
keeping period would be very short
after meljing. If this plan ever •comes
into favor, it would greatly Increase
the competition in the business of sup
plying milk in the great cities.

Shipping Coopn.
For shipping live poultry to market
the following sizes of coops are most
generally used in .the West: Coops
should be 48 inches long, 30 Inches
wide, 12 inches high for chickens
and ducks, and IS Inches high
for turkeys and geese. Use lumber
as follows: Two by two for cor-
ner posts, or 1x2 will answer. If you
cannot get them, get 1x4 nnd rip them
in two. Cut six pieces 30 Inches long
and nine pieces 12 or 15 inches long for
each coop. Nall the short pieces one at
each end and ono in the center of the
long ones, using ten-penny wrought
nails. Make three of these frames, one
for each end and center. For the bot
tom use half-inch itoards or lath, make
the bottom tight, using six-penny nails.
Use %x2-inch strips of lath for sides,
ends and top, put them ITii inches
apart; the width of lath is about right.
Leave two laths loose on top in center,
or make a door of them to open. In
order to put poultry in and take ft out.
Now nail a lath around the coops, each
end and the center, outside, the three
frames made first. This will keep the
lath from coming off and make the
coops stronger. For broilers the coops
can be made 10 inches high and 24 Inch
es wide. This will make a good
light coop.—P. IL Sprague.
