BUTTER.

Not one pound in FIVE of the butter sold in
the markets, is fit for human food. Butter
makers should remember these few short
rules - .'Lt
The newer and sweeter the cream, the
sweeter and higher favored will be the but
ter.
The air must be fresh and pure in the
room or cellar where the milk is set.
| The cream should not remain on the milk
over thirty-six hours. W.
Keep the cream in tin pals or stone pots
into which put spoonful of salt at the be.
ginning; then stir the cream lightly morn.
ing and evening this will prevent she cream
from moulding or souring.
Churn as often as once week, and as
'mnch of,ener as circumstances will permit.
Upon churning, add the cream upon all the
milk in the dairy.
Use nearly announce of salt to pound o
butter.
Work the butter over twice, to free it from
the buttermik and brine, before Jumping an(
packing.
Be certain that it is entirely free from eve
ry particle of buttermilk Or congulated milk
and it will keep sweet forever.
In Scotland, a syphon is sometimes used II
separate the milk from the cream, instead {
skimming the pans.-Ag E1chunge

RAISING GARDEN SEEDS Some years since
in pulling my English turnips, (raised from
imported seed,) though great yield, they
ran too much to tops with dishing crowns.
Finding one only, with small top and small
root, shaped like two saucers put together, l
preserved for seed, and the next year sowed
what got from it. among my potatoes. then
beginning to be affected with disease. They
mostly died but | got Is bushels of turnips
"true to the seed" saved out s bushels OF
the most beautiful | ever saw. This was in
Springfield. All who saw them admired them
and spoke for some of the seed, which l cir
cuuted freely at 81 the pound. Tops barrel
enough to pull up the single root, not much
bigger than pipc-stem. They were as good
as handsome. All this goes to encourage me
in selecting the best roots and employing thu
best means possible, for obtaining the very
best seed, from which to secure the rewart
for the best care aud culture Of the orchard
field and garden.

Practical APPLICATION OF A RECENT law
The law recently passed by the Connecticut
Legislature, forbidding the passage of wild
animals through any part of Connecticut, ex-
cepting in the night time, and escorted and
heraded by competent guards, was, as we
learn from the Hartford 7Yus, carried out
practically on the eve of the fourth of July.
A wild wood-chuck was caught for the occa-
sion A large truck-wagon was then procur-
ed, in which was placed jackass. On the
back of the jackass was " Hiram's gentle
man Of color who never shrinks from a de.
fence of law aud order" On Hiram's back
was the wood-chuck, andthe whole was drawn
by splendid black geding, and surrounded
bya body-guard Of hard-fsted voters. As
the law required that the wood.chucks an.
proach should be announced under penalty
tofSloo, a strong-lunged man went in advance,
blowing horn of terrible sound, by which
the people for mile around or more were
made fully aware that the wild animal was on
she road, and would be LATTER them with n
harp stick" GAVIN WIN "
