The more care that is taken the longer the cream will keep. This keeps the bacteria down that causes the cream to sour. Feed the cow some dry feed along with the pasture grasses. This will give a much bet ter quality of cream and will make better butter. Do not fall out with the creamery if your test falls off during hot weather. The cows are giving more milk and are being fed on green feeds which will cause a lowering of the fat test However the added amount of cream should make up for this difference. During hot weather the cream is quite apt to be come sour and begin wheying off be fore it reaches the creamery. Good butter fat cannot be made from cream in this condition. Set your cream screw ud so as to produce 30 to' 40 per cent cream, as high per cent r re u m rinea not sour as auickly as 2,506.24 possible in cold water and kept there 250.00 until delivered to the creamery. When addinir more cream to the vessel cooi it off first, and stir the cream once or twice per day to keep it from be coming lumpy. I Summer Hoar Hints: Keep as good .supply of fresh water in the lot if . there is no running water. Keep min Ipral mirtures before the hogs at all ! times. Farmers often ask why their hogs go down in their backs after sucklinir nies. ' Generally this trouble is from the lack of mineral matter in th ration. A. shallow box of 'Band placed in a shady place and kept well saturated with, oil willt keen the lice down. Keep the hogs out of old dusty houses. The dust will get into their Inn en and start them to toughing,- and later give trouble. , Keep ue nog Feed left in, too trougn 20.00 375.00 1,003.44 5,068.44 cue. ims wui aia greatly to our DasKet dinner and it show the friend ly attitude of the merchants and hna. iness men of the county towards the iarming industry. A closer and more sympathetic relationKhin be tween these two interests will go a long way towards putting Randolph County in the front rank where she belongs. Keep this day in mind. Bring your family with you and lets enjoy the day together, and get the benefits to be derived. IMPORTANT Farmers State .Con vention, July 23rd to 25th. Every farmer that possibly can should plan to attend this meeting. I expect to attend this meeting and hope that a large delegation of fanners will at tend with me. All who can and will go please let me hear from you. I wouia like tor us to get together and drive through the country, stonninir along the way to inspect things of in terest. Let me hear from you as soon possible if you intend to attend this meeting. Seed Wheat: Threshing time is here and every farmer who has good pure seed wneat should make an ef fore to get it threshed clean. There is a great demand for seed wheat from the eastern part of the State and we should supply that demand. Every farmer who has wheat, oats or rye for seed purposes and wants to sell please mail me the name of the variety and the number of bushels that you will have for sale as soon as possible so that I will have some idea of what the supply is. Last year I had orders for car lots but did not have time to get it located. Now is your opportunity to list yours so that when demand comes your grain will be listed and your County Agent can aSsist you. I cannot sell your grain unless you 'all let me have a list of it.

MOFnTT INQUIRES ABOUT OLD LIBRARY Editor of The Asheboro Courier: Can you find anyone who recalls a library which was called the Ptolemic Library of Asheboro? This must have been founded between the years 1824-'40. I once owned a book that was labeled "Ptolemic Library", but In moving away I lost the book. It was a well bound volume but I do not recollect its title. Perhaps some book lover of the county may have preserved other books that belonged to that library. The name "Ptolemic" indicated the influence of a Greek astronomer who supposed the earth to be the center of the universe or fixed point and that the heavenlv bodies moved about it. We will sup pose that the person who established that . Library made Asheboro the fixed point, being the seat ' of the county court house,1 and around it the citizenship of the county would respond to tne undertaking. Be that as it may, It was a fine beginning even u it died m its efforts. Asheboro of that day had a verv small population 'and one could hard ly expect a Library, to succeed in ex isting. Asheboro m now, growing in to a city. A public library is one of its greatest needs.' You have tow a large and increasing population, able to go-forward In the newer wider and more abundant source of Jjelpf uUness. Asheboro could be the Mecca not only for her., local dtiienship' but also for all the county, juv Intellectual festal Doara lor toe scholar, and the trunk er, the educator '.and the statesman, the business- man and the publicist, to tM iaraer and mecuanic as weu at the teacher and the pupil. , 'Mar we not hope tiat the Jtandolph Histories!
