F, SNOWDON, Proprietor General` Observations f Like theladies who follow the fash- ions of those- above them, the moon, wrapped , 'herself up in nimbus clouds during the eclipse on Sunday evening, and only too an occasional peep at the world, hollowing the ex- ample of the sun a few weeks ago. ** it trill' take much persuading to make' the Canadian people believe that the Senate, which prevents hasty legislation, especially in spend- ing money, is a bad thing for th.,se who' have to pay 'the hills. There is VO. incentive in the Senate, vrhen an election is drawing near , to bribe the electors with their ('the electors') own money, as there is in the Com- mons, who are forced to appeal to theta. er Ate embargo on pulp wood and a export duty or wheat, would give work to many now out of employ - mem' and help to pay the war debt. The United States puts a prohibitive tax on wheat entering that country for consumption, but refunds the tax wiser. the wheat is ground into flour by their millers for export. An ex- port tax by Canada on such wheat, which the American miller must have to make the best flour, would he so much found money to Canada. •• r The Federal Government met last week in Ottawa, the Provincial House opened on 'Tuesday of this week in Toronto, the County Council met recently in Goderich , and the Town Council held a session on Monday in Seaforth. With such a multiplicity of governments, Canada could well cut the membership of the Federal and Provincial in two, and still leave enough left, I , GENERAL OBSERVATIONS By W.H.'P. The mild .weather of the last few ;days is an agreeable change from the two months of almost unbroken sev- erity. One wonders 'how the mercury in the 'thermometer must feel be- tween 40 and 50 after •its long so- journ in the neighborhood of zero - either above or below it. The thaw was wonderful in its rapidity and had it continued much longer at this rate, the usual water courses would have been taxed beyond their capacity, and disastrous floods would have been the result, But these things are ruled by a 'high and beneficient Power, though we must tadmnit that sometimes the forces of Nature act with a relentlessness that shows little regard for either man or his works. One good thing that the thaw did was to provide an pbutedance of water, where before there had been a scarcity. Some farmers had been melting snow, others had been driv- ing their cattle long distances to water, and others had been drawing water 'to their homes he barrels. These men will much appreciate the present abundance of water. Then, the extent to 'which the thaw cleared 'the sidewalks of snow is a • blessing, though we could wish that the walks had been entirely cleared. The roads arc still in wretched con- dition, and farmers use them as little as possible, We suppose this is the usual January thaw somewhat late in arriving. We thoroughly enjoy the milder weather, and we are not going to mar our pleasure by anticipating the winter wea'thery yet to come. sax Well, our Dominion Parliament was opened last week with the usual pomp and circumstance, which must be very distasteful to the simple, democratic soul of Premier King, The speech from the throne, which is really the composition of the Pre- mier and Cabinet, outlined 'the Gov- ernment's ,legislative programme for the session; hut it •contained no al- lusion to the Empire as a whole, and no expression of loyalty to the Monarch of the Empire. These omissions from the speech are •creditable rather titan otherwise to its composers, since their feelings towra'rds the ,Empire and its Throne are the Opposite of those of loyalty and •devdtion, and it is better to be true 'than 'hypocritical. The King Government leaves un- touched C many important things which come properly within the province of a government 'to 'deal with, and other things whio'h it does touch it only bungles. Its' 'principal and most congenial work is flouting thel British 'Govern- ntent and standing up for what it calls our Dominion "status: The fact is Premier King, and some, we leirl, say r �, a i ria t v ofi h s felt ewers look to Washington gton` rather than t 0 London as the great center of their allegiance. We can imagine 'chem looking southward, and singing, "Yntder's my house and portion fair: My tre,asare and my heart are 'there," prow cattle it that such men were ever chosen to guide the destinies of Seaforth Horticultural Society PREh11UM LIST, 1925 Members are entitled to THREE CHOICES..

HOAG, HAZEL REID, President, Secretary -Treasurer:• this great Dominion, which is the fairest jewel in the diadem of Britain? a< a 'flee story is told of the former famous preacher of Brooklyn, that one morning he found in his snail the following letter: Reverend Henry Ward Beecher. Dear Sir: T journeyed over front my New York hotel yesterday morning to hear you preach, expecting, of course, to hear an exposition of the gospel of Jesus Christ. Instead, I heard a political harangue, with no reason or cohesion in it, You made ale ass of yourself, Very truly yours, Mr. Beecher 'turned the sheet over. and •wrote the following reply: My Dear Sir: I awn sorry you should leave taken so. long a journey to hear Christ preached, and 'then heard what you are polite enough to call a "political harangue." I am sorry, too, that you think I made an ass of myself. In this connection I have but one consola- tion: That you didn't make an ass of YOURSELF. The Lord did that, Henry. Ward Beecher. DUBLIN.

A Nutritive and inexpensive Food - slay ill Made irr'om Sour de Sidmnted Milk - Methods of Pxeinirntlon Described, tematributed by pntarioDepartment of Agrice]ture, Toronto.)T' ti i; it l: are a great many hinds of cheese made in the world, but Lite easiest as est to make is cottage cheese, .l person living on a farm where there is a supply of milk can make not only for their own table but for market as well, while the town dweller who buys n111k by the quart. can use up small amounts left over in exactly the -same .way, There Is no need' of wasting milk. in the home just because it has bei come sour, It. is true• that-ionall amot"ttts of sour milk are often used when baking, but • a person may not wish to use all of it In that way. It is not necessary to use whole milk for making cottage cheese,' Sklmmllk is quite satisfactory, and a small amount of ei'earn may 'be added to the curd at the time of add- ing the salt. There are two methods used In making cottage cheese, the "rennet method" and the "ordinary" or "heat- ing method." We will speak of the heating method, as it Is the one most commonly used in Ontario. To make good flavored cheese It !s ltecessery•to have good clean flav- ored milk free from taints or odors, Have the fresh sicimmilk at a temperature of 65 to 75 deg. P. It can be allowed to sour naturally, or a small amount of good flavored sour ekimmilk or buttermilk may be added to hasten the souring and help con- trol the flavor. Allow the milk to stand undisturb-' ml until it has nicely thickened when it will be ready for the next step of the process, Stir the coagulated milk to break it up erectly, then carefully heat it to separate the curd from the whey If only a small amount Is being heated it may be placed in a double boiler. A larger quantity, may be heated In a can. or .pail, while a obeesevat is suitable for large quan- tities. If the water In the vessel sur- rounding the milk F. kept between 140' and 150 deg. F. there will not be the danger of overheating or heat- ing too quickly; which is often the case when the water is boiling..• There is usually a good separation of curd and whey when it is heated to a temperature between 90 'and 100 dog. F. If the whey should not be clear when the temperature reaches 100 deg, do not. heat -higher, but al- low the can to stand,. The whey will likely become clear in a few minutes, Avoid overheating the curd, as it causes the cheese to be dry and crumbly, Next, drain 'ite curd. It may be hung up in cotton bags or it may be drained on cheesecloth Dittoed over a rack or strainer, ' drained awayhliftn the thefree cloth wheya-ones de and allow the curd to ;roll to the centre, then do the same with the other side. This will hasten the drainage, When sufficiently drained the curd should be salted, using about an ounce of salt to four or five pounds of cheese. If the cheese were made from skim - milk It will be necessary to add a little cream. About an ounce of cream for each pound of cheese will be sufficient. After thoroughly mixing allow it to stand a little while for the Salt to dissolve before putting it up in packages. If a person were making a quantity It might be put up In pound pack- ages by printing it with the butter - printer 'and wrapping in parchment of handling cottaThis isge cheese, but it isensive not as attractive as the little fibre •con- tatners coated with parafine, - A person who is making butter on the farm might increase the returns from the dairy by making some cot- tage cheese each week, as there are many people who like cottage cheese but do not know where to get it. Cottage cheese is a food that is nutritious yet inexpensive and much more of it might be used. Like all other 'foods,' We find peo- ple who like, It and those who do not, but in many cases the addition, of some ;favoring has made it .accept- able. Cottage cheese may be used in' with cream. and sugar, preserveny ways. It 'may be saornmaple syrup, or. an attractive dish may be made by making a nest of cottage cheese and placing a •bit' nf' jelly in the centre. Or it may be flavored by the addition of chopped nuts, olives or pimentos and moulded into, any desired, shape, If .a person has nota mould, a small box may be lined -with'. waxed a er n Paper and h p tech. ease: packed in with a knife or spoon. When filled, fod over the ends of. the papers and shake the cheese out of the box: -. . Cottage cheese salads are popular. A very simple salad 'is •ntado'by plan ins on. a lettuce leaf'asmall mould or a heaping tablespoonful of cottage cheese, then adding salad dressing; or a more fancy salad may be'made by making the cheese into email baits and rolling them•in chopped nuts.
