iod, Canada mow producing, annually
over 125,000,000 pounds, A profit-
able market must be found for the
exportable surplus, and this market
can only be secured and maintained
by supplying high-grade products.
The markets, both local and export
he demanding a more uniform higher
quality product purchasable on grade
to complete with the creamery butter
from other countries, and it is felt
that it is in the interest of the pro-
ducers, creamerymen and of the great
dairy industry that every encourage-
ment should be given the producers
of high-grade cream which will make
high-grade butter.
In order, therefore, to maintain and
improve the quality of our butter,
the "flat rate" system of buying
cream must be changed to a method
of payment that will insure the pro-
duction of more first -grade cream and
provide that the producers of such
cream shall be rewarded.
Purchasing create on a graded
basis will make it possible for the
creameries to pay the producers of
No: 1 cream the highest market .price
for nutter -fat, which will be' an in-
centive to the producers of No. 2
cream to exercise greater care in
handling and improving the grade,
A growing competitive home and
export market for finest creamery
butter makes it imperative that:
(a) Cream producers and creamer-
ies co-operate in improving the qual-
ity.
(b) A more uniform high grade
butter be manufactured in order to
compete in any market.
(c) Sweeter and fresher cream be
received at the creameries.
(d) Cream and butter be purchased
on a graded basis.

U. F. 0. IS' TO AWAIT
COMMITTEE'S REPORT
That the United Farmers of On-
tariowill await the report of the
Joint' committee consisting of six
-elected members of the Legislature
and a similar number of the U. F. 0.
executive before proceeding further
in' setting out the policy of their
movement regarding political action,
was the announcement made by the
U. F. 0. executive Friday night bl-
lowing a meeting held to consider the
questions arising out of the joint
gathering held in Foresters' Hall on
Thursday. The purpose of the com-
mittee of twelve isconsider the
advisability of calling' a Provincial
political convention to select a leader
and formulate a future policy.
"It will naturally follow," the U.
F. 0. executive declared, "that the
report of such joint committee will
not be acted upon unless it has the
endorsation of the U. F: 0. annual
convention. In the event of the
annual convention ratifying the
same, such a plan of organization
for political purposes will become the
definite course of the movement.
Then the matter of future policy and
platform passes into the hands of the
electors who are called together."
The executive also declared that
until a more comprehensive Defin-
ition of the term `broadening out"
has been passed upon .by the con-
vention it would be equally impos-
sible to proceed further in that re-
spect. "Broadening out," it was set
forth had been one of the contro-
versial matters during the last three
years, and so far nothing in connec-
tion with the subject has been well
defined other than the following reso-
lutions passed at the annual conven-
tion in December, 1922:
1.) That no change be made in the
form of organization for political
purposes.
(2.) That this convention reaffirm
its adherence to the policy of con-
stituency autonomy, and
(3.) That this convention is oppos-
ed to the transformation of the farm-
ers' movement into a new political
party.
The report issued by the U. F. 0.
executive also went into some de-
tails in connection with the farmers'
-movement "until it became a recog-
nized political force, and when im-
mediately an undermining force
which we are apt to ignore, and
which insinuates itself into every
movement which can be used for the
benefit of such interested parties, be-
gan to be felt.
"There have been controversial
matters between the different forces
of our organization," the executive
stated. "This is admitted, but these
controversies wrongly became cen-
tred in two men. Our membership
thus became confused. The contro-
versies created a breeding ground
for distrust and suspicions. Even-
tually this misgiving led practically
every member to look at ani 1br
every activity of our riiikverOnt
from the viewpoint of either o ese
two leaders. Our membership should
frankly acknowledge that for many
months past every speaker present-
ing on the platform the various
phdses of our organization was heard,
not so much for the message he gave
as to determine whose side he was on.
"Thus, we have the situation be-
fore us. Our people passively yield-
ed, shied off from the organization
to which they owed their political
existence and gave undue credence
to many stories that were told them
about domination by the U. F. 0. or-
ganization. This had the effect of
driving a wedge into the centre of
the movement, separating the politi-
cal activity from the organizing
force.
"Probably the most effective wea-
pon used to aid this carefully plan-
ned manoeuvre was the cry that the
secretary of the U. F. 0. was a dic-
tator. On account of this he has
taken undue Personal abuse and an-
noying misrepresentation. At the
same time there has never been any-
one who has pointed out a single case
of dictation nor has what constituted
dictation been defined."
The executive appointed the e
PP
fol-
lowing to join the committee of six
elected members to consider the
question of holding a province -wide
convention on the questions of leader-
ship and policy: Messrs. Amos,
Currie, Binnie and Good • Mrs. J. S.
Amos and Mrs. Frank vtebster.

Care of the Cream.
To properly separate the milk and
care for cream on the farm certain
precautions are necessary, the chief
of which may be summed up briefly:
1) Place the • separator on a firm
foundation in a room which is kept
clean, well ventilated, and away from
stable and any bad odors.
(2) Skim each milking as soon as
milked. Temperature of milk about
95 degrees F.
(3) Regulate the separator to skim
not less than 30 to 35 per cent. cream.
(4) Be sure that the separator is
at proper speed before the milk is
allowed to flow into the bowl, and the
required number of turns of the
handle maintained all through the
skimming process and until all the
milk is through the bowl.
(5-) Cool the cream to 55 degrees
F. or lower as soon as it comes from
the separator.
Keep the Cream Cans Covered.
(6) Do not mix the warm cream
of one skimming with the cold cream
of the previous skimming until the
former is cooled.
(7) Stir the cream thoroughly
when the skimmings are mixed.
(8) Keep the cream cold until de-
livered.
(9) Wash the separator thoroughly
each time after it is used.
(10) Discard all rusty pails, cans
or stirring utensils, and keep all cans
and other utensils in good condition
by washing and scalding after each
time they are used.
Cream testing 30 to 35 per cent.
fat (a) Keeps sweet longer; (b) Less
bulk to cool and haul; (c) Larger
yield of butter secured, more skim
milk kept on farm.
All lumpy, bitter, stale, musty,
metallic, yeasty or fermented cream
must of necessity be classed as sec-
ond or off grade because it is impos-
sible to make from this type of
cream first -grade butter which com-
mands the high price; the producer
as well as the creamery is the loser,
and the general quality of the better
is lowered.
Do not hold over the morning's milk
to be skimmed at night, or the night's
milk to be skimmed in the morning.
This tends to deterioration in the
quality of the cream and there is
greater loss of fat in the skim milk.
Cooling the cream by placing the
containers in ice water, cold spring
or well water, insures good sweet
cream.
First grade cream may be classified
as cream 'which is reasonably fresh
and clean in flavor, smooth, not
lumpy, and fit for making into first
grade butter. Its acidity should not
be more than .6 per cent. i(t the time
of grading at the creamery where it
is to be manufactured into butter.
Second grade and sometimes Off
Grade cream should include any lot
of cream which does not meet with
the requirements specified for No. 1
Grade. It may contain undesirable
flavors and test too low in butter -fat.
Bitter cream is usually caused by
being held too long a time.
Stale or must 's
y cream n usually
caused by holding the cream too
long in improperly washed containers
or in poorly ventilated cellar or milk
house.
Metallic flavored cream may be
caused from rusty utensils especially
cream cans.
Fermented or yeasty cream is
foamy, and boils over the can. It is
caused from unclean separators or
utensils, and from holding the cream
too long at too high a temperature.
Cellar flavored cream is caused
from absorbing the odors of vege-
tables, etc.
Very sour cream is caused from
holding the cream at high tempera-
ture. It produces low grade sour
butter.
Oily cream may have the flavor of
kerosene, gasoline or machine oil due
to the cream absorbing these odors or
through carelessness in handling
gasoline or oils about the cream sep-
arator.
Cheesey flavored cream is usually
cream Meting low in butter fat held
at high temperature which causes the
curdy matter to separate and become
,lumpy. Unclean separators or other
utensils may also cause this flavor.

ing an account of his work. there. He
said in passing along the road here
he noticed so many beautiful fields
of wheat being cut and tied with the
binder. What a contrast there was
to the way they harvest their grain
in China, where all work was done
by hand, either cut with the sickle
or the cradle. He had noticed more
than fifty people in one field, men,
women and children. The very poor
were allowed to glean after the
reapers. Much good is being done
through the hospitals, where sick
people come for treatment. Many
thelle hear the glad tidings -of salva-
tion for the first time and then when
they return to their homes they tell
the message to others, and so the
good work goes on. Rev. Mr. Smith,
of North Bruce, will occupy the pul-
pit next Sunday.—Mr. and Mrs. Wm.

A Bumper Crop.—Albert Harvey,
who owns and operates the farm be
purchased from Mr. Detweiller some
three years ago, has a field of wheat
that yielded 361 bushels per acre
and tested 62 pounds to the bushel.
Mr. Harvey has some thirty-eight
acres of beans, sown on part of the
Taylor estate, and at time of writ-
ing they give promise of a good crop,
and if he is favored with good
weather to harvest and thresh them
and even at an average price, they
should make him some money. We
hope they will.
Notes.—Mr. W. M. McGregor, who
for many years has been in the
threshing business in this vicinity,
has disposed of his threshing outfit
to Messrs. Detweiler and Caldwell,
who will make a strong team in the
threshing line, and are looking for-
ward to a big season's work —Mrs.
James C. McLean and granddaugh-
ter, Margaret McDonald, are spend-
ing a couple of weeks visiting with
Mrs. McLean's daughter, Mrs. Win.
Hay, at Niagara Falls, Ont, All
friends will wish Mrs. McLean and
little Margaret a pleasant visit.—
Mr. and Mrs. Bert King and Mr.
Elmer King, of Gorrie, visited their
brother-in-law, Mr. Thomas Mellis,
during the week. Messrs. Ring,
while in Seaforth, purchased a new
threshing engine from the Robert
Bell Engine Company.—Miss Mae
Doig, of Stratford, is visiting at the
home of Mrs. W. M. Doig.—Master
John Doig, of Detroit, is the guest
of his cousin, John C. Doig. — Mr.
Fasken, our obliging station agent,
has gone on his holidays and intends
visiting a brother in California. Mr.
Lewis is supplying during Mr. Fes -
ken's absence.—Mrs. Pearly and two
children, Margaret and Albert, of
Winnipeg, are visiting among friends
here. Mrs, Pearly was formerly Miss
Esther Corbett, and will be remem-
bered by a number in this vicinity.
—Mrs. Alex. McKenzie, of our village
has gone to Toronto, where she will
spend the holidays with her daugh-
ters. Mrs. McKenzie's many friends
around Kippen hope she will have a
pleasant outing.—The fall wheat in
this part is well cut and with the
threshing mills on their rounds, many
loads of new ,grain are being deliver-
ed at our village grain house. Wheat
which was four years ago finding
ready sale at $2.25 a bushel, is now
around the 90 cent mark, which will
fall short of swelling out the pocket
book.—Rev. Mr. Durand, the new
pastor of the Methodist church, the
past week was calling at the homes
of his people in this vicinity, in or-
der that pastor and people might g!et
better acquainted. He has come to
dwell among us and his people speak
well of the good messages their pas-
tor delivers, which are much com-
mented on by those that come to the
services on the Sabbath day. But
there are some so cold and indiffer-
ent to gospel privileges that they
don't seem to realize what blessings
they should enjoy when the Gospel
is brought so near their door and is
not made use of.—Rev. Mr. Abrey, of
Londesboro, will on S.abbath morning
conduct the services in St. Andrew's.
Mr. Abrey in the years gone by, has
given the people of St. Andrew'g
good sermons and always brings a
good message to the people. N[r-
Arthur Anderson and his mother,
Mrs. John Anderson, who were on a
motor trip to Marlette, Michigan,

The car trip was a long one for Mrs.
Anderson, as she is past the four
score -mark. However, mother and
son well enjoyed their visit and have
returned home not appearing to be
any the worse of their motor trip.—
The Thompson annual picnic, which
has been held for many years, was
held the past week to the lake at
Drysdale, when a large gathering of
the Thompson blood and with invit-
ed neighbors and friends, joined the
company and it may be said all well
enjoyed the day.
