why he treated her thus-why he had torn her

walked on in stern silence, and now and then

AGRICULTURAL.
AGRICULTURE.

Good Butter is an article always in demand,
and al all seasons ofthe year will command q
good price. Why is it that so little attention
is paid 10 the manner of making il? More
than half the butter sent to market is absolutely
unfit 10 set before an Esquimaux. The public
mind, however, appears TO be directed 10 this
subject. At late agricultural meeting held at
Boston, Mr.. Putnam stated that it is general
rule, where the quantity of milk required for a
given quantity of butter is large, the butter is
better. The mode Of milking is of much con-
sequence. The operation should be perform.
ed quickly and gently. Among the hays. the
second crop, or after math, and fine clover, are
the best for milk. 9th roots, potatoes un.
cooked will produce large quantity, but the
quality is poor: when cooked the quality of the
milk is better, but it is less ip quantity. Carrots
make rich milk. Sugar-beets make a large
quantity of good quality. Ruta.baga increases
the milk, but generally gives an unpleasant fla.
vor to milk and butter. This may be reme-
died by putting half pint Of boiling water to
each gallon of milk, Immediately after it is
drawn from the cow. The great cause of bad
butter is the failure 10 work out the butter.
milk. The difference between the worth Of
good and bad butter is so great that our dairy
women ought, if possible, TO do better than is
usual with them.
Mr.. Dodge agreed with the remarks in re-
Iation to the worth Of corn fodder. He sowed
half an acre in May. on sward land. II was of
a small kind and the drought hurt it. But he
fed well twelve cows and some young stock.

better through the whole autumn for this sum.
mer feeding. The labor Of growing the half
acre is no; great. -,
Mr.. Buckmrnster agreed that cows should
be MIXED rapidly-has ascertained, by expo
| rience, that it makes a great difference. If
| the milk be not taken away fast when it begins
TO flow freely into the bag, it seems to be drawn
back again. In making butter, the important
point is to separate the buttermilk thoroughly.
Some insist that washing with water hurts the
butter, but he deems this the result of prejudice
| He puts water into the churn as soon as the
butter has come, and keeps drawing off adding
and churning until the water ceases to be
white. You may make good butter from sour
cream ifthe butter is properly worked over.
1t is c good plan TO dry the salt, then it helps
TO absorb the moisture.
Mr.. Dodge finds the women in his neigh
borhood fall into the belief that water hurts
the butter. He has been laughed at for ask
ing 10 have it tried-believes that where an o.
pinion among practical dairy-women is uni.
versal that there is some good foundation for
the opinion.
MIR. Putnam says the washing Of butter is
done in Essex county. Much that has obtain.
