THE CHEESEMAKER. American and Foreign Cheeses and Methods of Making. - An expert and skillful dairyman with the exercise of sufficient care should be able to present the buyer with the best quality of cheese. This Is con firmed by the fact that the famous Cheddar cheese of England has been beaten tn competition by American Cheddar, though made under entirely different conditions. Occasionally we can find the so called Swiss, Edam and Brie cheeses (which are njarde in various and distant localities) produced In this country fully equal In flavor to the foreign made article. ' But the average American method of mnking cheese differs widely from the foreign way, and the initial difference Is the separation of the whey from the curd. Our dairyman does not draw off the whey until ' some acidity is shown, when it is drawn off and the curd is left to drain and cool. This Is the point which requires skill and experience, as the formation of the acid has to be regulated to a nicety, as heat develops the acidity and cold re tards it. The famous English Cheddar cheeses mentioned above are never allowed to be sold until three months after being made and for the first few days are bandaged and kept in a cheese worn (temperature G5 degrees) aria turned daily for some time. The process of keeping various kinds of cheese in this way may be altered so as to give great variety to its flavor. Cloths dipped In vinegar are sometimes wrapped around the cheeses, or sometimes they are covered with pulverized sweet herbs. Much ingenuity is often exer cised in this way to vary the character of the article. P. K. Edwards in Coun try Gentleman. A Silo Story. This Uttle story was told by an In diana dairyman in representing the importance of the silo to the farmer: "Compelling the cow to eat dry fodder Instead of rich, juicy silage reminds me of a story a well known evangelist tells. A lady who prided herself on never turning a tramp empty handed from her door was accosted one day by a member of the hobo fraternity When, as It happened, she had nothing but bread to offer him; but, cutting a thick slice, she handed it to him, say ing, 'I give you this not for your sake or for mine, but for the Lord's Bake.' The tramp took the bread and, turn ing It over and over In his hand, final ly said, 'My dear madam, not for your sake or for my sake, but for the Lord's sake, please put a little butter on this bread.' If the cow could speak, no doubt she would say, 'Not for your sake or for my sake, but for the sake of the milk pail, build a silo.' " Both Quantity and Quality. No way Is kuown whereby the real value of a cow may be determined without an actual test. The most con venient and satisfactory test now known is the use of scales and the Babcock test for determining the per cent of butter fat iu the milk. The use of milk scales without a butter fat determination does not give the whole facts; neither does a butter fat deter mination without a consideration of the amount of milk throw much light upon the real worth of cows. Both quantity and quality of milk need to be considered In short, must be con sidered if we are to learn the real facts In regard to our dairy cows. Covering For Milk Pitchers. If milk is put In a pitcher or other open vessel It should be covered with a damp cloth, and with the end of this cloth placed in a vessel of water the evaporation from It will continue and assist lu keeping the milk cool. DAIRY WISDOM. Thoroughly clean the udder by rub bing with a piece of linen. Wash the hands thoroughly before milking. Let the udder be quite dry before you be gin to milk. Milk with dry bands. Seize the teats with the whole hand. Keep a gentle pressure on the udder. Milk as fast as you can and never cease working until the milk is wholly drawn. Dou't strain the teat beyond Its natural length. Some bacteria are of great value to numerous branches of the dairy In dustry, but the man who desires to de liver his cream in good condition must look upon them all as enemies. He must so far as possible keep the milk and cream and the bacteria separate to prevent disease, contamination and fer mentation. One big mistake Is often made In erecting silos. The majority are built too large. Better build two or even more, so as to enable you to use enough out in a day to prevent It ' from souring. Never try to save $100 on a silo by cheap construction and lose Instead $200 worth of badly need ed feed. Before a cow that has been well bred that Is, has come from a good cow and a pure bred, prepotent sire Is condemned be sure that she has reached maturity and that she has had a full year of good, abundant feed. If you are feeding the calves skim milk, either weigh or measure their feed with a eup. If you feed by guess, don't expect your calves to thrive. Get out of the rut of careless feeding prac tices and do things scientifically. If there be soreness or lumps in the odder or teats, stoppage In the milk canal or unnatural colored milk don't mix that milk with, any other and don't send it to the creamery. The man whose cows dry up early to freshen for fall milk is mighty lucky. He gets the most milk when prices are highest PHIL0I1ATH SNAPSHOTS. Happenings of Interest , in College Town Coming and ' doing. . Robert Ewing of Michigan, who has been visiting at the home of his nephew, S. S- Ewing, manager of the Benton Co. Lum ber company for several davs, departed tor Michigan last Thurs day, with the intention of bring ing his family to Oregon. We will be glad to welcome them within the borders of our peerless state. John Bennett returned home from Waldport last Thursday, where he had been taking advan tage of the last davs of the open season for hunting and fishing. Stories for publication not yet completed. 1 Prof. S. O. Watkins, instructor of the 4th and 5th grades of the Philomath public school, has been afflicted with something in the nature of lumbago. He is able to continue his school, work, but was almost helpless a portion of the time. Stephen Merrick returned from Nebraska last Thursday. He had been gone about two months, having accompanied Mr. Stahlnacher to that state, who expects to reside with a daughter. It will be remembered that Mr. Merrick's daughter, Alice, was sadly widowed by the death of Mr. Stahlnacher's son, two or three months ago. A telephone message from Brownsville last Thursday called Mrs. Sarah Bennett to attend the, funeral of a niece, who died at North Yakima, Wasb., and whose burial was to occur at Brownsville on Friday. Mrs. Bennett departed for Brownsville on Friday morning. C. Li. Woods of Woods Creek, visited at the home of his brother, Abe Woods for several days last week. The two deer that were slain near Newton cemetery two weeks ago were slain bv Philomath nimrods, instead ot Corvallis huntsmen, as was recorded in in the columns of the Gazette last week, R. E. Pugh, of the hard ware firm of Pugh and Williams, is one of our most loyal citizens and Cleve Davis claims no place but Philomath as his home. Through an oversight the film of one of our Snapshots was over looked, and mention was not made of the natty little publica tion issued monthly by the stud ents of Philmoth college, and whose rhythmical appellation is dear to each heart of the bright voung student body, "The Philomath College Chimes." We desire to thank the busi ness manager, Melvin Miller, for a copy of the first issue of the current school year being the first number of Vol, IV. Something over a week ago a large calf belonging to S. H. Moses was found in its enclosure with its throat cut. Upon ex amination by a number com petent to judge, it' was stated that no decision could be made as to whether it was done by means of a weapon, or if some dog could have done the deed, as dogs were known to do the wcrk so that it would deceive an expert. The calf-was dead, but a dog with its head covered with bipod was seen by a citizen of the town, and this would allay any suspicion that might arise as to the possibility ot out having a person within the borders of our community that could do such a deed. A young son of Mn Mavstrick of south of Philomath, is filtered with a serious attack of peritoni tis, bordering on appendicitis. A delay in securing medical attend ance makes the case more seri ous. The revival meetings at the Radical U. B. church still con tinue. . Rev. Reynold's has charge of the services. A large conco urse of relatives and friends of the late Janie New-tcn-Brown, from Philomath' and vicinity attended the obsequies at the Philomath church and Mt Unicn cemetery last Friday. The bereaved family have the heart felt sympathy of the entire com munity.

Chintimini last week far the ': purpose of bringing off the herd of 'cattle that had bten pasturing ' on the summer range. On the first trip the cattle stampeded and about thirty were left on the Peak., The second trip was for the purpose of bringing these - from the peak. Chas. Vosburg, who had been visiting his parents and other relatives for the past month, re turned to Portland last week. J. Roy Miller of Sunnyside, Wash., was a business visitor at Salem last week and on Thurs day dropped in for a visit with bis sisters, Ola and Pherne, and his brother Melvin, who are at tending Philomath college. He departed for Washington Friday morning. Sudden Death. T. G. Brown died Wednes day morning of heart failure at the family home on sixth street. He was a brother-in-law of Mrs. F. O. Gray and came to this city from Arapahoe, Nebraska, a year ago, hoping the change of cli mate might benefit the health of his son Walter, who is afflicted with inflammatory rheumatism. Witbxhis -two sons, Walter and Vernon, and the only daughter, Tena. deceased made his home in the old creamery building on sixth street. Upon retiring Tuesday night he complained ot not feeling well, and took some medicine. The son sleeping in the same room beard a gurgling sound about 4 o'clock and calling the other members of the family the elder man was found dead in his bed. T. G. Brown was born in Ohio, September 27, 1891. He was married to Miss Addie Prime in Nebraska, about 30 years ago. The wife died 14 years ago. A third son, J. D. Brown, resides at Arapahoe, Nebraska. Brief funeral services were held at the residence on Sixth street yesterday forenoon, con ducted by Rev. Darby, after which the remains, accompanied by the daughter, Miss Tena, stated on the trip to Nebraska, where interment will be made at Arapahoe. The bereaved have the sym pathy of Corvallis friends and neighbors in their affliction. Got a Klamath Homestead. Miss Linnie Small of Silver Lake, Klamath county, arrived Wednesday 'and is a guest at the home of her cousin, M. M. Long. Miss Small is an old OAC girl and during her college days was a popular student. She recently participated in the rush for claims in the Kla math country and succeeded in securing a good homestead with out being obliged to contest the case. Her sister, however, was less fortunate and will have to contest for her land. Miss Small says that after the midnight hour on October 28th, which was the date on which the land was thrown open, the tim ber rang with the sound of ham mers and saws as the people fell to work in the dead of night, building some sort of foundation for their "shacks." It reminded the Corvallis girl of a New Year's night, save that a blinding snow storm raged and it was bitter cold, as with her father and siste: she spent the night in the wilder ness. Later on she' was one of the 200 persons who lined np to file on their claims at tbe land office at Silver Lake. It was a great crowd and many were dis appointed but luck favored the OAC girl as she found no other filing had been made on her claim. She and her sister have spent a month in that locality and Miss Small says they have "lots of fun." The people are very . sociable, the women and girls wear divid ed skirts, have riding horses and visit all over the country. Ou one trip, in following a blazed trail over the mountain, Miss Small and her" sister on their re turn home became lost in the mountains. Night came on and it was very cold and their cloth ing was drenched. In despera tion they broke into a locator's I cabin, found one match, with which they lighted a lamp and built fire. Bat for ' that they would have frozen almost to death. ' . Miss Small will remain in Cor vallis for a two weeks' visit. Additional Local. The Christian revival will . close nex Sunday evening. Besides the usual morning, and evening service on Sunday there will be a meeting at 3 o'clock ior the members of the Christian church and converts only. Monday niUt Dr. Mar tin will give an elocutionary entertain ment in the tabernacle - Before he enter ed the ministry Dr. Martin was for sev eral years a teacher of elocution and is a reader of unusual merit. Gordon Moores, who was injured the most seriously of anv of the team in the Saturday game with Corvallis, is still out of the game and may not be able to -play against Washington next . Saturday. Blood poisoni- g has set in and he is not able to walk, says a XT. of 0, dispatch in yesterday's Journal. Hay ward docs not consider him in any danger, however, and expects to have him out in a few days. The team will leave for Seattle, Thursday morning, and outside of Arns piiger and M cores, will be in good con dition. Arnspiger is still out and will not go with the team. Frost is allowing the team to take a much needed rest this week and is only giving them light signal practice. To encourage love of our country and the study of its history the "Oregon Society Sons ot Amerii an Revolution" ofierd cash prizes of $20, $15. $10 and 5 to the pupils f I he public schools of t he sta'e for essavs on subjects connected with our war for independence. The eui- jets are: "Washington, the -reat Lead er;" ' The Fla ot the Unifd S'atea;" "The Bstoa Tea Party," and "The Treason of Benedict Arnold " The -s-says are lijoited to 3100 words each and each must be accompanied by a certifi cate from the pupil's teacher, stating that the teacher believes the essay to be the pupil's own, unaided work The con test closes March 31, 'OS, and all manu scripts are to be signed by the pupil and sent to R. I. EekerBOn, Chairman Com mittee. Room 5, Washington Building, Portland, Oregon. Here is a splendi j opportunity for Corvallis pupils to make their ability known, and tnere is no reason why one of these handsome cash prizes should not be won by some Cor vallis boy or eirl Let an effort be made and no one knows what th result will be. Ahead of the Railroad. We are apt to think that a great city, containing the comforts and elegancies of modern life, cannot exist without railroads at its gates. Bogota, the capital of the republic of Colombia, is an exception. .Hav ing a population of 125,000, fine residences, excellent schools and i colleges, literary, artistic and musi j cal societies, clubs, polo, tennis, : balls, dinners, elegant society that ! knows the Parisian fashions, Bogota ! lies on a plateau which no railroad j has yet reached. There is, however, a short railroad on the plateau it self, but to get to it by the most used route one must journey two and a half days on muleback. An other way of approach, reducing the mule ride to seven or eight hours, requires several days of river navigation. But the railroad is coming, although late. Youth's Companion. The Modesty of Women Naturally makes them shrink from the Indelicate questions, the obnoxious ex aminations, and unpleasant local treat ments, which some physicians consider essential In the treatment of diseases of women. Yet, if help can be had, It U better to submit to this ordeal than let the disease grow and spread. The trouble Is that so often the woman undergoes all the annoyanoe and shame for nothing.
