(Prepared ly the United 8tatee Department of Agriculture.) County and state butter contests, a feature of South Carolina extension work for women last year, accom plished much In the way of Improving the dairy Industry there. South Caro ls una is not a dairy state. It uses an- nualiy about $14,000,000 worth of i dairy products shipped in from other ! states. Some of this Importation is . due to the fact that while there Is a ' large amount of farm butter produced f within the state, no steady demand for It has been .developed. For the pur pose of creating an interest in this farm-made butter, and to teach the women to make a better product, con tests which were open to home-demonstration club members x were started i during 1921 in 11 counties. I Butter demonstrations were given en in all the women's clubs, and all in- : interested persons were invited to a dem onstration by the state specialist at the county seat. Three hundred and sixty women and girls enrolled for the contests,- and of these 120 sent butter for every judging. Without exception there was a great improvement in the packages brought to market and the quality of the butter sold, as the women learned to what extent the but ter is affected by the temperature used for ripening and churning, the care and cleanliness In handling, and the feeds for the cow. "Contest butter" sold very readily at the various club markets, and those who did not enter the contest were obliged to make 'improvement in the quality of what they offered for sale or lose the market for their butter. Ex tension workers report to the United States Department of Agriculture that the butter produced In all parts of the state has been perceptibly improved as a result of these contests. TRAP KEEPS COW CONTENTED Kansas Farmer Designs Odd Con traption to Keep Flies From Milk Producers.

The cow enters and walks through the cage, and the flies are brushed off by brushes that protrude from each side. The flies, or most of them, in their attempt to escape, are caught m a specially designed trap on the top of the inclosure. Popular Mechanics Magazine. DESTROYING LARVAE OF FLY !

THE THOUSAND ISLANDS THE River St. Lawrence "As grand as the Rhine", was discovered by a French explorer in 1535. In 1615, Champlain explored the upper reaches of this majestic stream and discovered these islands. The origin of the name is evident to the beholder. Below Lake Ontario for a distance of some forty miles the river broadens to a width ranging from four to seven miles. Here begins this world-famous archipelago. These . , . .. , , ,., slands-sometimes in a string like links in a chain again in just pell- mell confusion, appear to block the channel. Apparently there are a thousand of them. Some authorities assert there are as many as 1,700. Composed mainly of rock or granite, their surfaces are not high.

WAY TO AVOID LEAKY TEATS - ' Good Plan to Apply Collodion After Each Milking This Closes Up the Opening. The only way to prevent leaky teats is to smear collodion on the end of the teat after each milking. This closes up the opening and before the next milking it must be removed. This is bothersome, but may be used to good advantage wnere me cow loses a quun- tlty of milk. INDIVIDUALITY IS ESSENTIAL In Selecting Cow It Is Important to See That Strain Is of Large Producers. Breed Is of less importance In se lecting the cow than Is individuality, for in every breed there are good In dividuals and poor Individuals. It is important, not only that the breed, but the strain. jot family represented be noted for large and economical produc tion. Provide Supplemental Feed. If concentrated feeds are not pro vided to supplement the pasture, the cow must either reduce her produe- tion or draw on reserve materials from her body. Grain Is Essential.
