It is ex pected that the necessary appli cation forms and instructions will be received by the county office by the time the new pro gram becomes effective. R. G. FOWLER, County Agent. Storing Butter Easy Practice Do you have extra cream now? Why not churn and store some butter in your locker for next winter. Experimental work at the U. S. Department of Agricul ture shows that butter made from sweet, pasteurized cream has the best keeping qualities. Pasteurization is not a com mon practice to most homemak- ers, but is a very simple one. It consists of heating the cream to s temperature high enough to kill the bacteria present. First select sweet cream (sweet enough to use in coffee). Heat it to a temperature of 145 de grees to 150 Farenheit and hold it at this temperature for 30 minutes. This is best done In a double-boiler, or by setting the kettle of cream in a larger ket tle of water. Stir the cream fre quently while it is heating to in sure an even heat throughout. If you have a dairy thermome ter (they are available and not too expensive) you can be much more accurate and successful. As soon as the cream has been held at 145 degrees to 150 degrees Fa renheit for 30 minutes, cool it as quickly as possible to SO de grees Fahrenheit or lower and hold it at this temperature of at least three hours before churn ing. After the butter is churned, wash it thoroughly. Any milk left in affects the keeping qual ity. Overworking destroys the wax-like texture of the butter and make it like salve. For storing, the butter may be made into rolls and wrapped in parchment paper and then lock er paper, put in glass Jars (leave a headspace) or in parchment paper lined waxed containers, Small amounts one pound or two pounds are most satisfac tory for storing since the butter will not keep too long after it has been defrosted. Date the packages and use them In the or der in which they were put into the locker. MARIAN J. FARRELL, Home Demonstration Agent. SPOILED BUTTER Berkeley, Cal., Aug. 2 (U.R) Ten thousand pounds of rancid butter were converted Into soap at the Colgate-Palmolive Peet company in Berkeley during the month of May, M. R. Dixon, chief chemist for the plant, an nounced today. During a senate committee hearing in Washington yesterday OPA officials insisted that not more than 3000 pounds of stored butter had turned rancid. No ad missions to the effect that spoil ed butter, formerly edible, had been sold to rendering works or soap manufacturers were made by the OPA during the meeting. Dixon said that 10,000 pounds of butter had passed through the plant's ovens In May and that between 20,000 and 30,000 pounds had been processed dur ing the past year. The chemist named San Fran cisco bay area creameries and a milk company as the source of the butter. Townsend Speaker To Appear Friday Dr. Norman W.
