Railroad Churn-N Inpention-Sing ular Results.
FRIEND BENNETT:-
DEAR SIR
knowing the extensive circulation of your paper,
hand you the annexed, which may not be unin.
terestng to many OF your agricultural friends and pa
irons. The Georgia railroad churn'' may super
cede the " dog churn" of Orange county by and by
at least 50 far to supply the city of Charleston
with not " Goshen butter from Orange county,
New York, but railroad butter" from.Cass Coun.
ty Georgia:-
A new discovery has recently been made by one
of our nativ. born citiZens," that promises to be
OF signal utility to the farmers and graziers of the
Cherokee counties Of this State, and equally bene.
fetal to the good people of the city of Charleston.
The object OF the inventor is 10 supply the city OF
Charleston with good fresh butter and buttermlk
At all times, and al ant-tarfi price. Upwards of
500 600 in butter is annually imported into Charles
ton and Savannah from New York alone. All this
supply the State of Georgia car, and ought to fur
nsh. How far our enterprislng native born Fulton
Will succeed IN his scheme remains to he seen.
From the experiment made, however, there ap
pears nc doubt OF his success His plan is, as soon
as the Georgia railroad Is completed to the State
road, to establish milk market in Cass coua ty
where the new milk will be put in large tin cans,
containing about forty gallons each, similar to those
used In transporting milk from farms In the vicinity
vi fcW oIh 10 tndt city. lnese Cans are MADE
with spring bottoms and lngenlousy contrived pad
dies or arms within, so that the simple Earring
ton of the railroad performs to admiration the
process OF churnng; and new milk, ere it reaches
its place OF destination, converted into fresh but
ter and buttermilk. He calculates the cars will run
through from Cass to Charleston in about Is hours;
thus eau the citizens of Charleston receive daily
and ample supply Of the very best OF fresh butter
At the reduced price of l2a Is cents per 10 made
from sweet milk brought from Cass county, near
400 miles, and all within "a hours from The time the
milk is taken from the COW. There IS n better
section in the Union Tor grazing, or the establish
ment of large diaries Tor the production Of butter
and cheese, than the western part OF Georgia, and
II Charleston knew her own interest," she would al
once aid in the completion of the Georgia railroad
to the terminus OF the State road. The inventor Of
the Georgia railroad churn" intends 10 obtain a
patent and is saDgune that in less than three years
railroad butter. like canal flour, will be all the go in
every city throughout these United States.
