ZEN RULES TO BE OBSERVED IN MAKING Rur.
rER'-ln making good butter there are several
| nice operations to be gone through with
Whlch require an eye to cleanliness, fore.
thought, and some little experience.
l. On milking clean, fast, yet gently, regu-
iariy Twice day, depends the success of the
oairyman. Bad mixers should not be tDle-
rated in herd; better pay double tha price
for good ones. F'iSo
= Stralnlng is quite simple, but it should be
oorne IN mind that two pans about half fnll
each VIII produce greater amount Of cream
than tho same milk il in but one pan; the rea-
son Of this is the greater surface.
d. ocalding IS quite an important feature in
the way OF making butter in cool weather: the
cream rises much quicker, milk keeps sweet
longer, the butter is of q better color. and
cburns in one-half the time.
4. Swimming should always be done before
the milk becomes loppered; otherwise much
OF the cream turns into whey and is lost.
b. Churning, whether by hand or otherwise
should occupy forty or fifty minutes,
9. Washing in cold soft water is one of its
preserving qualities, and shotia be sz~~sssfsF-e4
until it shows no color the milk BY the use
OF the ladlei very hard water is highly charged
with lime, and must in measure impart TO II
alkaline properties.
Z. Sailing is necessarily done with the hest
kind Of ground salt the quantity varies ac-
cordlng to the state il is taken from the cblrn
if soft, more-if hard, less; always taking the
taste for the surest guide.
.. First working, after about twenty.four
hours, is for the purpose of giving it greater
compactness.
y. Second working takes place at the time
OF packing, and when the butter has dissolved
the SAT-, that the brine may be worked out.
10. Packing is done with the hands or with
butter-mall, and when butter is pnt into
wooden vessels, they should be soaked two mr.
three days in strong brine before using, + Az.
ter such packing, cover the butter with a wet
cloth, and put layer OF salt upon it in this
way the salt can easily be removed at anv
time, by simply taking hold of the edges ofthe
cioth' &C. ADAMS.

Wool Growing in California.

To the grazier and to the capitalist, the
subject Of wool-growing in this State is one
of much Importance. 1t is undoubtedly true
as often remarked, that no country under the
sun offers greater facilities for this branch o
enterprise than our own. Wool is one of the
most valual lie articles of commerce, and is
produced with comparatively small outlay
while the return is sure and profitable. A
writer in the Bulletin is enthusiastic on this
subject, but his suggestions are practical and
worthy of consideration. lie says:
man taking up a location, judiciously
selected, and settling himself down within
1000 first class ewes and so or hun
dred pure blooded tups, is bound to be an
independent man in seoen gears; and that,
too, without the dangers of fire, shipwreck,
or fluctuations of market. Corroding cares
and anxieties attend almost all other pur-
suits. The wool-grower knows, too, full
well that he is accumulating a property
for his family, that even under the most
disadpantogeous circumstances, must yield
them a handsome return. In fact, while
he enjoys his Otium amid the may an
tiquities of the old classics, induges in
his much cherished meerschaum, or the
humble, but not less highly priced "clay,"
or gallops over his ranch with the beloved
company of his fortunes by his side, his
t1ocks are quietly browsing and yielding
him the means to CRAFTY his more ambi-
tious or luxurious desires. Then, too, he
has the far greater qualification of knowing
that he is producing an article that ever
has, and ever will enhance the intrinsic well
fare of the country, afording by its man
ufacture employment, peace, contentment
and happiness to thousands of his fellow
men, for no sooner will California produce
her own wool, than tweed and woolen
factories will spring up, Aladdin-like, 81
gantic in Importance not only in the present
time but for all time to come Let it be
borne in mind, too, by capitalists that this
product Of wool, unlike the gold, though
| by no means underate its value,) is of
increasing, not decreasing worth; and that
no pursuit affords so positive a return,
and no avocation is attended with so lit
tie labor, or so devoid of care.

Scenery and Ruins on the Gila.

An officer in the army, writing from a
camp on the Gila, where supplies for the
troops engaged in the campaign against the
Apaches have been collected, describes the
country adjacent, and the ruins which mark
the early existence the.e of another and
more civilized race:
"The Gla here is clear rapid stream
discharging a considerable volume of water,
skirted on both sides with cotton wood trees,
and an undergrowth of willow, goosberry
and wild currant bushes. The county is in
teresting, on account Of the ruins of buildings
and enclosures seen everywhere and the
pieces of broken pottery that strew the
ground. That the country was once densly
populated cannot be doubted, and by race
far in advance of the present Indian occu-
pants, in arts and architecture, their painted
pottery and fallen dwellings fully prove In
front Of my tent are the ruins of building
and enclosure; | have collected many pieces
of pottery, painted and glazed, which retain
the colors, notwithstanding time and expo
sure-the painting is checkered and striped
and red and black colors on a white ground
At what time this people occupied the coun
try, whence they came and where gone, are
subjects for the antiquarian, but will scarcely
be known until that great day when all
things shall be revealed
can old Navajo chief says, they are gone
quitting both hands up, and towards the
South) away there but they have no tradition
in regard to them. A Publa chief now here,
says his people have a tradition of Monezu-
ma, and of Cortes, the Spaniard, but nothing
relative to this extinct race. A probable
conjecture is that they were the ancient
Aztecs, or portion of them, and that they
were driven south or exterminated by the
faithless, savage Apache. The country is
mountainous generally, with many beautiful
valleys and canons; timber along the water
courses and in the canons of the mountains,
and on the mountain sides; the 'mesas
below the valleys, hills and prairies are
covered with gama grass. The Indians fired
the mountains in our vicinity on our arrival
at this point, and most of the country has
been burned over; for two days we contended
against the flames to preserve our camp"

How TO SLEEP QulEr-We see some of
our cotempoi aries assert that one or two law
ers of common newspaper placed between
the quilts, or covering of bed, will add
much to the warmth and comfort Of the oc-
cupant. The Harrisburg Telegraph thinks
this plan is worthless except under certain
conditions: If the individual who sleeps nm
der those layers of newspapers has paid for
their subscription or advertising then his
rest will be refreshing and his dreams deli
cious. But should the base wretch under
meath the newspaper cover owe the publisher
one lonely, solitary "red," he will dream Of
double -barreled devils, with hook tails, and
the blood will go down to the freezing point.
This is bad enough without the deprivation
of his teeth, which will inevitably chatter out
with the cold.

The First Babv.

just look at him! DO you see that in
dividual with his hat high on the bump of
sef-esteem-l'is nose turned up at everything
distinguished by frantic disregard of the
immaculacy Of his shirt, or the tie of his
handkerchief! Mark with what superciIious-
ness he views all mundane things. With
what scorn does he gaze upon youths and
grown people, and how contemplate appears
everything to his high daintiness that was
so attractive before. lie is a father for the
first time, and his little, tiny, whining chorub
is at home in embroidered muslin. And the
baby-yes, the baby--is as fat as butter, and
weighs six pounds and a quarter. An intel
lectual boy, too-we! "red." Think of that!
Six pounds and n quarter, and boy at that.
Bless his little chubby soul! What projects
are running in that mans brain in regard to
the new conner. What long way in the
future he is looking after destiny; and sees
nothing less than Governor, and mayhap a
President, in the little chubby boy at home
weighing six and quarter pounds. And
the wife the first baby she ever had-shc
never thought she'd be a MOTHER and wild
with joy, she is caressing the helpless little
lump, and goes mad with happiness at the
contemplation of her dear little sugar.plum
of an offspring, six and quarter pounds.
The first baby is new link to bind the we'd
ded pair together and cement it---the chain
weighing six and quarter pounds We
congratulate our friend upon the hurricane
Of happiness that has befallen him, and ar
IDENTIFY hope he will fall down no celarway,
or into any coal-holes, in his upgazing pride,
at having assisted to add one more to the
numerical strength of the country.
