We frequently see receipts published in
the papers, containing directions from other
countries how to make good butter; an object
Of groat importance, especially IN the winter,

many persons, to be impracticable to make
good butter. The truth, however, 10, that as
good butter can be made through the winter
as At any season of the year, II tho Necessary
measures are pursued.
TITS well known, that when cows arc well
fed, and kept under cover through the winter
their milk Is much m ore -ich than when fed
upon grass in the s0nmcr. When thus KEEP,
