The London correspondent of the Boston A,las
says that the Bishop of Derry has discovered that
the old process of churning may be done away
with. He sends stream of atmospheric air
through the cream, and the oxygen of the atmos-
phere, thus coming in contact with it, speedily
converts it into butter, of better quality and
with less labor Than by the old process. Eleven
gallons OF cream, on occasion, produced &c
lbs. Of butter. This mode of butter making is
now becoming general in England.
