It Is literally sold by the yard, says The Creamery Journal. Kor generations It has been the practice of faint,! l.ltesliiie dairy folk to roll their butter Into lengths, each length measuring a yard and weighing a smnd. Ieftly wrapped In strips of rlean white cloth, the cylin drical rolls are packed Into long, nar row baskets made for the purpose and thus conveyed to market. The butler women who. In white lin en aprons and sleeves, preside over the stalls In the mart have no need of weights or scales for dispensing their wares. Constant practice and an ex perienced eye enable them with a stroke of the knife to divide a yard of butter Into halves or quarters with al most mathematical exactness. The university people are the chief buyers of this curiously shaped article, In addition to being famed for Its puri ty and sweetness Cambridge "yard butter" Is eminently adapted for serv ing out to the university students In the dally commons. Cut Into conven iently slxed pieces and accompanied by loaf of the best wheaten bread, a stated portion Is sent around every morning to the rooms of the under graduates for use at the daily break fast and tea. :-M-O-l-0., i ! t I l-l-j I HOMEMADE CHEESE: Mirriiijiit m ii( him:hy sim I'l l-: II 1 11 l TIIK ttKH IliC HOI KM IKK SI rToK. lb-cause of the'faueled dilnVully lu lieeseiiiakiii:: p.s-ess hisfew women tl.lnL of ut tempting It, says Louisa A.

There are two reasons for this. The outside air la not pure and aweet It may lie laden with dust or It msy near with It oilora which are not de- alrable In the butter or bacteria that will produce bad flavors or early de cay. Rut even If the air Is all right It toughens the surface of the cream so that In cburnlng It doea not break with tbe rest, but either goes away In the buttermilk or mixes Into the butter, usually most of It doing the latter, and then the butter Is tilled with white specks which are simply sour cream that will not only Impart an nndealrs ble taste to tbe butter, hut cstise It to become rnncld very quickly. We leant ed this by a little unpleasant experi ence of our own many years ago. as w bave I. nrned some other things, and we advise enr Men, la to be warned before they have to pay for the lesson.

One of the acknowledged experts In thla country on the subject of ripening Cream la Professor H. W. Conn of Con necticut who Is the Introducer of the System of artificial butter cull ores and the discoverer of the famous bacteria which produces the June butter flavor, la his bulletin No. 21 he discusses vari ous methods of compelling cream ripen ing by use of starters and butter cul tures. The Danish method is to pas teurise the cream and then add a pure culture of the right kind of bacteria. Thla produces a mild flavored butter, which, however. Is not so well liked lu this country as that produced by natu ral starters. To make a natural starter take the milk from a perfectly healthy cow. After the under parta of the bodv are carefully brushed and the udder care fully wiped with a damp cloth the tlrst few Jet of milk are rejected and the rest drawn Into a sterilized vessel, which Is Immediately covered, heated to a proper temperature and the milk passed through a separator. The skim- milk thus obtained Is set aside In a cov- sterlllxcd vessel to sour. Wheu well soured. It serves as a starter for the cream ripening process. In conclu sion the professor observes that the use of any kind of starter will not make good butter out of poor cream. UNCERTAIN TESTS. am System la Wklck DsJ.

Curd mills are used for preparing the curd for salting, but In small quantities it la quite quickly cut with one of the new choppers anil chopping board.
