will understand, too, that which has
often puzzled hini—why there is a
constant. price for the handy -weight
steer or bullock when heavier weights
may not return a profit. The kind
ef stes-r most wanted by packers is
the one which will yield a camas, s of

handle most economically.
During summer the preference for
handy weights is always more clear--
cut than in winter, but the preference
is traceable all the year round. The
seasonal difference is partly elime.tie,
partly due to modern living conditions
arid partly psychelogical. Modern
housewives will not cook heavy cuts
hi kitchene.ttes nor do indoor workers
want large euts in 'warm -weather.
Hence it is that marlcet weights in
demand are important in beef produc-
tion. On the -whole, it may be said
that handy weights between 1,050 and
1,200 Dm., and even- lighter in hot
weather, are best suited for Canadian
trade, "Baby beef" is nearly always
at a premium. With right weight good

appear to be especially at a discount,
both for the domestic trade and for
export. In a reexot on the shipment
e 45 steers recently sent on the hoof
from Ednionton to Glasgow, it was
stated: "It was observed that the
smaller, handy weight steer, weighing
from 1,200 to 1,350 lb -e. was mostly
in demand. The thick, heavy, fat
steers didn't meet with a ready sale

when the ripened cream is around
sixty oleg,reas, the correct terriperature
for dimming.
The method of handling the cream
before churning often hes much to do
with the butter net coming. If a sep-
arator is used for skimming, the
cream should be cooled before mixing
it with former churnings. The cream
should. be saved and kept in a cool
plea:, until there is enough for a
churning. It should then be warined
to about seventy degrees and allowed
to stand at this temperature for
twelve hours or until it ripens. Then
it should be cooled to around sixty
degrees, when it is ready to churn.
When the cream is ripening, it should

Two of the boys could act as water

"Fifteen: minutes would generally
suffice for the consumption of the
