The production of mgh quality cream is not dif- ficult it correct methods of feed- mg, ieanliness and cooling are practiced. g

in the production of fine flavor- ed cream the same precautions must be observed as those which are necessary in Illllillilllll milk to cheese factories. condensorlu. or for the city fluid milk trade. The following are some of the essential points - feeds that will affect the flavor of butter and which should never be fed to milk cows are: decayed ensilage and roots; heated. musty or moiildy hay. There are other foods. such as turnips. turnip tops. and rape, which may be used after milking if a period of four hours elapses between the time the feed has been eaten by the cow and the time of milking. No taint should therefore be notice- able in the milk or cream. Other caiises of poor flavored cream are l. Cows udders and teats in an unclean condition at milk- mg time. 2. Milking in unclean slitliles. 3. Using unclean wooden. riisii or galvanized rniiking polls. 4 Separating the milk in the stable. which should never be done. 5. improperly cleaned and sterilized separators. 6. Keeping the cream in cellars and other plartitt where there are decayed rnnis and other vegetables. 7. Keep- in the cream for several days at . temperature of over 55 degrees I ii. Permitting cows to drink water from stagnant pools or leakage from barn yards. ll- Washing utensils with unclean. foiil-smelling wash cloths.

On too many farms in this province the separIt0T I3 kept in the stable. This may be a Very convenient arrangement. but it is by no means the proper place for separating milk. A special room or milk-house set apart from the stable. well-lighted. well-ventilated. excluding all stable odors and dust. and where the washing of the utensils may be easily db” ll '-0 he recommended. This room ibiiiild have a smooth cement floor, which can be easily clean- ed. and no ordor or contamina- tion whatsoever from the stable should enter it.

Too much of the eream sent to croamcrles in this Province is kept in cellars, and very often the ilamr is affected by the odor which the cellar may contain from decayed vegetables. This is called an absorbed odor and cannot be eliminated by pasteurization. A great percentage of the cream reioctcd at creameriee is due to this defect and to the methods of storing the. cream. It has been found that the easiest and best way to keep cream cold and sweet in flavor is to PM it ill I iihnt gun can and place It in-I tank of ice water immediately- The insulatedtank is recommend- ed This tank is made with a space of four inches on all sides. including the bottom and cover. which is filled with planer mill shavings. it can be lined on the inside wtih galvanized iron. All tanks have covers as they keep dnvm the temperature of the wet- er and the cream. There is no hotter place for keeping cream sweet and clean in flavor than rilnring it la an insulated ice wet- or tank in the milk house near an abundant supply of I004 9793” water.

"LET GEES! DO IT"

One of the main dlfllclllllll 111 the production of My CPOP 1' W996 control. For some crops chemical viceti control has been success- ful hut in other crops we have nni been so fortunate. One of the inner crops is strawberries in which chemical weed control has been only rn ' , successful. However. satisfactory control of grass and many other weeds in strawberries has been obtained in Nova scotia through the use of lease. The idea originated in Ten- nessee where geese have been used to control grass in cotton fields for ndarly so years. As late H.191: no more than a dosen lrowers in Nova Scotia used them Yfitilarly on strawberries but since that time the number of newer: using geese has increas- Id greatly.

However. If! not put is until the green 15 beginning to hide the berry Plants .a largr surnbc will be required. At the time the geese are placed in the field. the! should be around six weeks of

more than 3 pints of water per goose will be required each day.

To avoid having the geese smother many plants at night; shelter should be provided at the end of the field and shade is necessary during hot weather. To keep the geese from wandering away from the field and feeding on other ground. a I inch hog wire fence should be constructed around the field. Flight may be prevented by clipping a few side wing feathers. The end feathers on the wings should never be clipped as these are essential for holding the wings on the heck. Falling wings will decrease ef- ficiency of the geese.

Avoid scare. Flocks in which losses have been caused by do s or foxes will drop to about o half normal efficiency.

in conclusion. a few points worthy of mention are: Tramp- ing of the plants by geese is of no problem; droppings do not in any way burn the foliage; geese require shades during high tem- perature; room are not neces- sary; side dressing with am- monium nitrate can still be car- ried on: geese are very effective in removing chick weed. clover. twitch and other weeds of this type. .

”SPRAYlNG GUIDES”

The Horticulture Division of this Department has 'recently prepar- ed Spraying Guides for tree fruits. small fruits and veget- ables. These guides will contain recommended treatments for the control of insects and diseases in the various crops and should be of considerable assistance for producers in their combat against crop pests. Those wishing to secure one or more Spraying Guides may do so by calling at the office or by writing to De- partment of Agriculture. PO. Box 9. Charlottetown.

"BLUEBEICICY BURNING"

The blueberry plant produces its fruit on one year old wood. Consequently. it must be kept growing rapidly or production will soon fall off. This is the main reason for burning blueberry tan. in the spring. the other reason being to destroy the uushea and other plants that compete with the blueberries and to leave a covering of decaying plant meter- isl over the surface of the soil to prevent loss of moisture during a dry season. Burning every sec- ond or third year seems to give the best results although this may vary in special cases.

Burning should be done in the spring. after the snow has malt- ed but before the frost is out of ground. if it is put off too long. the old plant growth will not burn as well. damage to the roots of the plants may occur and there will be destruction of decaying plants which afford a protection against drying of the soil. If the burning is done as soon as the old wood is dry enough but while the soil is still wet or frozen. the fire will run rapidly through the bushes and grass and will not be hot enough to burn into the litter in the ground and damage the roots.

in cases where there is not sufficient plant growth to give a good burn. it is often necessary to haul in and spread about one ton of hay or straw per acre. This should be don during the tail previous to burn g in order to allow the hay or straw to set- tle around the base of the bush- es. but when it is not done -at that ttrne. it will be of some help to do it in the spring.

In order to get satisfactory con- trnl of the hluebeq maggot, it is necessary to have a complete burn or the insects will breed on the patches of blueberries that fruit. during the following sum- mer. If this happens, then a heavy infestation of the maggot is liable to occur during the next season.

Before burning a large blue- berry area. you are required by law to notify the road foreman in your area and the nearest R. C. M. P. detachment. You should also have available some fire fighting equipment. much as stirrup pumps or small sprayers as well as shovels. etc. tefmaka a fire block if it is necessary. Burning should be started at one end of the field and should be done against the wind. It is advls-' able not to try to burn too large an area at one time.

"CLUB NEWS"

sing of Mr. John R. Marks at the Prince County Hospital on Satur- day. March 19th. in his &3th year.

The late Mr. Marks was born in Long River in IE9. and was the last surviving member of the fam- ily of the late William and Jane Predhnm Marks. He spent the greater part of his life on the old homestead where he laboured faith- fully and industrlously to build up a rich farm. In early life he was married to Jane! MacKay who passed away thirty years ago.

The cheerful humorous dis-

position of Mr. Marks endeared him to all who knew him. Left to cherish his memory are the following daughters and sons: i0rentha) Mrs. Harry Marks, who tenderly cared for her father at her home where he had been an invalid for the past two years; (Eliza) Mrs. John Foliand. Marsh- field; and William. residing in Pic- tou. N. S. A daughter, illazeli Mrs. lra Folland and two sons. Neil and Percy predeceased him a few years ago.

The funeral which was largely attended was held on Tuesday, March 22th. A short service from the home of his daughter. Mrs. Harry .Vlarks.' was followed by service in St. John's Presbyterian Church, New London. The service was conducted by Rev. Mr. Mac- Kay. assisted by Rev. Mr. Green. Hymns sung were: ”Abide With Me," and ”Sleep On 8 e lo v e d, Sleep." A favourite of the de- ceased "in The Sweet Bye and Eye" was beautifully sung by Mr. Dan Campbell with Mrs. Ernest Dunuing.at the.organ. The floral tributes were many and beautiful. The pallbearers were: Messrs. Wilfred Pickering. George Mac- Kay. Roy Paynter. James Smith, Predham Johnstone. Leigh Brown. Interment was in the New Lon- don Cemetery. Rev. Mr. MacKay was assisted at the grave by Rev. Mr. MacNaughton of Marshfield.

soon its days will have slipped swiftly by and a new page in the calendar will bring Easter-"I think I like Easter better than Christmas" says Marvls, as she envisions a visit from her long- cared. long legged friend. Peter Rabbit.

"Peter Labbit Come?" says Garth a bit mystified about the whole thing. And so Marvis ex- plains in detail to a wide eyed little boy how on Easter Sun- day mornlng he will find colored eggs. chocolate rabbits and so on in his small brown boots-and in todays paper a picture of a jolly rabbit brings an excited shout from him. "Mommy. Mom- my. here's a Labbitl"

But when the shadows length- ened this evening and chores were done. we took him on our knee and told him all about what Easter really means. The sun dipped low in the western sky and rested, it seemed. momen- tarily. on the tops of tall spruces at the skyline.

How peaceful and quiet these moments were, as two kiddies listened to the story of Him who gave His life for us. Silver stars were scattered across the blue curtains of the sky as we reluc- tantly camc to the end of the story and Marvis said, "I don't see why people feel bad when anyone dies. After all. just think. they'll see God and be with Him forever and ever!" And we thought

The driver of the car is wearing a black hood over his head The license plates have been painted black. Headlights and taillights are turned off. There is no moon in the sky. No stars are to be seen. The car is approaching an intersection. 'I'liei'e are no signal lights at the inter- section, nor any other warnings. Yet the deaf driver of another car approaching at right angles stops just in time to avert a crash. How did the deaf driver know that the speeding car was on the road?
