The .i.ini, polbcllied calves one often -rm -ill pasture are usually not a the common defects in milk and cream at this season of the year and how they may be prevented: 1. OLD SWEET CREAM Cause - The cream when kept for a num- ber of days on the farm, even at a low temperature (-for to 50”F.), loses its fine, delicate, flesh flavor and acquires a flat, stale flavor. Certain types of bacteria growing at temperatures of from 40” . to 50”F. may cause very objectionable flavors. Roplness may also be caus- ed by bacteria growing at lIl('.'! temperatures. Ropy milk has an un- desirable flavor. Prevention - Even though the cream can be kept sweet, it should be sent to the creamery as often as possible. The cream should never be more than four days old. Whenever pos- sible, the older cream should be shipped in a different can than the fresh cream. Cooling is not a sub- stitute for sanitation. All utensils used should be thoroughly cleaned and sterilized. 2. FEED FLAVOR!-ID CREAM Causes M Certain feeds, when fed to the cows from 1-2 to 5 hours before milking cause a definite feed flavor in the milk. The flavor is usually more pronounced in the cream and butter than in the milk. Flavoring substances of feeds are carried by the blood to the udder and are then imparted to the milk. The substances iiiay gain cnlrancc tract to the blood. Another is by inhala- tion-thus passing through the lungs to the blood. A third is by passing through the skin of the animal and then absorbed by the blood. Tests show that the flavor of the milk was seriously affectcd when the fol- lowing feeds were fed one hour be- fore milking: corn, alfalfa, sweet clover, vetch or pea; green alfalfa: cabbage; turnips; tops rape; kale. A slight flavor was caused by feeding potatoes. dried beet pulp, car- rots. Certain dry feeds. such as al- falfa hay, when fed in large quanti- ties may give cream a pronounced, although not a very undersirable flavor. A feed flavor may be caus- ed by certain types of bacteria. some of these are ablr to produce It very definite odor similar to that milk of the pasture. but of the'of potatoes, silage; and cabbage. irk nf milk and grain -of pro- pr? daily attention. are ;H.!lul'Pd when too y re is ii are trniible from scourpp yi hey suffer from heat and files. ilairymen therefore prefer not to turn calves on pasture until ll1"y ll'.'t'. 5 or 6 months old.

Storey Electric PHONE 3181 I15 Grafton Street -M Prevention - When the feeds that cause a pronounced flavor are fed in a not too large quantity immediately after milking, the milk at the succeed- ing milking will not have a pro- nounced feed flavor. 3. BITTER-RANCID FLAVOR Causes - When milk and cream obtained from cows late in their lactation period are kept for several days even at a. loiv and especially a fluctuating temperature, 3 nounced rancid flavor may develop. This is caused by the activity of the enzyme lipase which is secreted in the milk. The milk from some high-producing cows may also coli- tain considerable lipase und will turn rancid when kept a short time. Prevention - 1. Discover the cows in the herd whose milk turns rancirl on stor- age. 2. If possible, dry up cows whose milk turns rancid or feed the milk to calves. 3. As a safety measure keep the milk at an even temperature. Ex- tremely low storage l('lTipCl'Xllul'cS should be avoided. 4. Olly-Fish-Tnllowy Flavor Csulec - Tliis flavor is common in milk and cream produced during the fall and winter months when the cows are late in the lactation per- iod and are fed dry feeds. Oxida. tion of the fatty substance lecithin, which is present in milk and cream. by metallic compounds - due to keeping cream in poorly tinned containers-is largely responsible for the production of the flavor. Poorly ivnshcd separators or rusty bowl parts are other contributing factors. Certain bl-lCl'3l'I;L growing in It low temperature may be re. sponsible. Prevention .. Do not use milk from cows that are in an advanced stage of lacta- tion and gestation. Use well-tinned, clean and sterilized utensils and separator parts. Exposure of the milk or cream to oven in small sur- face of copper or iron should be avoided. Deliver the cream to the Ofelmery as often as possible. I pie-1 CITY AND ' CENTRAL BOYS TAXI.

IN MEMORIAM JOHN FRANCIS HAUGHEY The death of John I" r n n c I s Hnughey of Mslpeque Road, Char- lottetown, R. 41.. occurred in the Charlottetown Hospital on Satur- day. November Bih. Frank as he was familiarly known to his num- erous friends and thousands of acquaintances was. to all appear- onces, in his usual good health un- til just a few days before his death, when he was seized with a heart attack and was rushed to the City Hospital. Here everything pos- sible was done to relieve him and restore him to health. but in spite of the best medical skill and tend- er nursing he passed away very peacefully on the above mentioned date, fortified with the rites of the Holy Catholic Church. Frank was of a very jovial and pleasant disposition. His ready wit and friendly nature gained for him countless friends, while his ability to converse freely and intelligent- ly contributed greatly to his suc- cess in business and consequently made him a valuable employee of Bee," several contests and a sing- song. A bazaar was also held of some very nice pieces of handi- craft. A hearty vote of thanks was extended the hostess for her hos- pitality. . A delicious lunch was served. Personals The many friends of Mr. John 3. Andrew regret to learn that he is seriously ill in the P. E. f. Hos- pital. All hope for a complete re- covcry. Mr. and Mrs. Elmer Hyde and two daughters. Doris and Linda. of Meadow Bank, were recent vis- itors to Coverdale and Monctnn. N. B., the guests of Mrs. Hyde's bro- fliers. 5. METALLIC FLAVOR. Causes - This flavor is related to olly-fishy- tallowy flavor. Metallic flavor may sometimes. when the cream is stor- ed, change to an oily or fishy flavor. Storing cream in iron or copper containers from which the tin has iiorn off. in rusty containers, or in galvanized iron containers, invari- ably results in the development of a metallic flavor. Pouring cream into a can that has been used for sour buttermilk without first clean- ing the can may result in A metal- lic flavor of the cream. Prevention - Use well-tined or stainless steel containers for storing cream. Avoid lard pails coffee cans, etc. The tin coating on these is very thin and quickly wears off. Recondition old, poorly tinned shipping cans. 6. BAIINY FLAVOR. Causol - Milk from dirty cows milked in a poorly cleaned and poorly ventil- ated barn by I producer who has dirty hands and clothes will have a pronounced bsrny flavor. some nf the dirt will fall into the milk. In addition there are certain bac- teria, naturally found in manure. that may produce the flavor in milk and cream, if they have been introduced into the milk and allow- ed to multiply in it. Prevention - It is unnecessary to lo into de- tails regarding the prevention of the flavor. Briefly. it means: 1. Cleaner cows, especially the udder and flanks. 2. Cleaner and better ventilat- cd born. 3. Cleaner hands and clothes. 4. Clean milking machine. 5. Removal of the muk from the barn as soon as it has been obtain- M Rev. P. F. MacDonald as Deacon A. Home and Co., with which firm he was employed for upwards of !twenty-five years. The fact that the manager, Mr. Ivan Horne. left him in charge when he was called to Florida clue to the illness of his mother speaks eloquently of the confidence and trust imposed in him by his employer. The late Mr. Haughey was born in Kelly's Cross, fifty-seven years ago. He remained on the farm with his parents, the late John Haughey and Mary Malone, until after their death, and later removed to Win- sloe where he was employed with the late Ed. Sanders for some time before joining the staff of A. Home and Co., Charlottetown. He was married twenty-one years ago to Miss Lena O'Brien to whom he proved a most devoted husband. During a recent illness when she over a year it is said that he never console and encourage her in her church each evening.

' The funeral which was under ihc' direction of Mr. Bob Bradley of the Charlottetown Funeral Home was held from his late residence to St. Dunstan's Basilica on Mon- day morning. November 8th. Solemn Requiem High Mass was celebrated by the Pastor. Rt. Rev. Monsignor Patrick McMahon with Last week I left a difficult ques- t.on for discussion in this column: Which was the real Emily Carr (and by implication, which is the real you)? was she the woman with the disagreeable personality her fellow-townsmen saw? Or were the simple Indian fishermen zimong ivhom she pointed right when they called her "the laughing one' and loved and admired her for her friendly understanding personality? Here we are up against one of the toughest problems in psychology -the meaning of personality. one distinguished writer in the field (Dr. D. W. Macklnnon) says, "the mean- ings of the term personality are legion." And outstanding psycholog- ists do not agree on all of these meanings. But nevertheless. mod- ern research has yielded many can- structive insights into the nature of personality. Probably few 'WOI'dS are more often on our tongues than the word, personality and few are so loaded with importance. We are constant- ly accepting and rejecting people, young and old, because of our judg- ment of their personalities. Why don't we wish to admit Alex Brown to our club? Well, he hasn't a pleasant personality, we say. He is too critical, or uncooperative, or he has such a colorless personality. Or we do not recommend Ellen Jones for the position because she hasn't the right personality. She -talks too much, or she is too retir- ing. Perhaps she isn't attractive ''enough in our opinion to fit the job. she is too dressy. or too drab. , ”Johnny," says the teach-er," has isuch an attractive pEi'SOllf:Ilit). But Tommy has one of those personal- ities you can't like-you know, quar- 'relscme. grabbing." When we examine these other such judgments, many hav- ing far-reachlng effects on the life of the person involved, we note ithat they deal almost entirely with superficial outer appearance, ac- tions, behavior. Such usage of the term personality is historically cor- rect. It is derived from the Latin, ipcrsona, the mask ivorn by the .iictor to indicate his role in the drama (warrior, king etc). In psy- chological literature, this is known as the "mask definition." The trouble is that unlike the Roman or Grecian audiences we often confuse the mask with the actor behind it. We believe the was confined in a hospital for well appearance 0" bchavlm 91' mask "19 individual wears in is particular missed an evening visiting her to 5m”mo"' 9xpm5”5 him ml”- Yet in other situations there may .11 3.
