The Use of the Hand or “Bahj” Separ. | ator on the Farm. JPurdue University Experiment Station. Newspaper Bulletin No. 36. June 25, Up.] Daring the past few months numerous communications to this station indicate ] that Indiana farmers are becoming much interested in the use of hand separators on the farm. Many wish to know if it will pay them to buy such a machine, to replace hand skimming of milk. The hand separator consists of a small metal bowl, which is revolved, with great rapidity by means of cog wheel connections. Milk turned iiilo the bowl separates into skim milk which accumulates in the outer portion of the l>uwi, and cream, which gathers near the center. After the separation in the howl, the cream and skim milk escajie from it. through outlets into separate tula s. from which they are conducted into cans. Tins action of separation is continuous so long as the bowl is revolvingat suitat> c speed Separators are now commonly sold on the r~' market, that do satisfactory work, praeti- j tally removing all of the butter fat from the milk. On the average farm, probably every 100 pounds A -fc mimed milk secured by the old fashioned methods, contains from one-fourih to one-hatf pound of fat More js left in the milk than farmers are often aware of. The properly run sej-arator removes nearly all. if uot all of this. The writer believes that every person who - kee[*s tiye or more cows, with the object of making as much butter from them as possible. who makes gilt edge butter, and who is interested in progressive dairying, would find in the hand separator a money-! making machine. Other jieople are likely to be disappointed, if they buy a hand sc pa-; pator. ( The following are some of the important arguments i:i favor of this separator: It effectually skims the miik, thereby saving all the cream or fat. Where impurities have fallen into the milk, such as hairs, dirt, manure, etc., the separator remove* them, so that their influence on the cream is much diminished. In summer, separator . cream is free from milk curds, which often occujr in cream skimmed by hand and cause ( trouble in butter making. The separator j is also a labor saving device when one. Wouies familiar with-it* use and care. The j necessity for caring for many pans and cans is doue away wit h iu a large* degree. There are several excellent forms of separators on the market. Prices vary according to si* and make, ranging $65.00 j up, for firstclass machines. Fey* the above , price, a machit.t caihb< U»ught that; will! - separate 175 pounds in an hour. A popular j and stanArd sixe, which sells for $125.00, will skim 850 pounds of milk fier hour. Such a machine is used at this station and gives perfect satisfaction. The amount of force required to run a band separator is ik>t great enough to tire an average man seriously: The use of the tread power is. however. l»eeoraing extensive. Small dog cm* sheep powers are made, selling for $150.00 or so, that are used for ■ running hand separators, and a larger

tread power, suitable for small bulls or ponies, is also used. C. S. Plumb, Director. Two Lives Saved. Mrs. Phoebe Thoms*, of Junction City. 111., was told by her doctors she had consumption and that there was uo hope tor her. but two bottles of Dr. Kina's New Discovery completely cured her and saved her life. Mr. Tbos. Kggera, 130 Florida St. San Francisco, suffered from a dreadful cold,-approaching consumption, tried without result everything else then bought one bottle of Dr. King’s New Discovery and in two weeks was cured. He is naturally thankiul. It is such resulis, of which these are samples, that prove the wonderful efficacy of this medicine in coughs and colds. Free trial bottle* at J. It. Adams Son’s drug store.

She showed a Christian spirit and wonderful patience and forbearance.—Vincennes Commercial. Ice Cream Made by a New Process. I have an ice cream freezer that will freeze creaiu instantly. The cream is put into thy freezer and comes out instantly, smooth and perfectly frozen. This as ton-L-hes people and a crowd will gather to see the freezer in operation and they will all want to try the cream. You can -ell cream as fast as it can l>e made and sell freezers to many of them who would not buy an old style freezer. It is really a curiosity and yojt can sell from five to eight dollars worth of cream and six to twelve freezers every day. This makes a good profit these han't times and is a pleasent employment.

St. Louis* Mo., would give an elegant plated hook spoon to any one sending her ten.' two cent stamps. 1 sent for one and found it so useful that I showed it to iny friends, and made $13 in two hours, taking orders for the spoon. The hook spoon, is a house hold necessity. It cannot slip into the dish or cooking vessel, being held in the place by a hook on the back. The spoon is something housekeepers have needed ever since spoons weK first invented. Any one can gvt a sample spoon by sending ten, two cent .'tarnp£ to Miss Fritz. This is a splendid »ay to make money around home. 4 .18 Very truly, JtxxsmS.
