Bayard TAYLOR is probably the greatest OF

The Scientific American pub
fishes the following method Of
making butter in five minutes
without a churn. We have lit
tie faith in the operation, be-
lieying the old fashioned churn
altogether preferable. Still those
who are fond of experiments
can trvit and if it is worth any.
thing we should like to know it.
The recommendations are that
butter made in this manner is
frmer and less oily in hot
weather than when made in the
ordinary way, while the skim
milk il swecter and palatable.
after straiuing the milk,
set it away for about twelve
hours, for the cream to "riSe.'
After standing as above, set the
milk, without disturbing it on
the stove; let it remain there
until you observe the coating Of
cream on the surface assume q
wrinkled appearance, but be
careful it does not boil, rs should
this be the case, the cream will
mix with the milk and cannot
again be collected. Now set it
away till quite cold and then
skim off the cream, mixed with
as littlcn,ilk IS possible. When
sufficient cream is collected pro-
coed to make it into butter as
follows: Take a wooden bowl
or any suitable vessel, and
having first scalded and then
rinsed it with cold spring water,
place the cream in it. Now let
the operator hold his hand in
water as hot as can be borne
for a few seconds then plunge
it in cold water for a minute,
and at once commence to agit-
ate the cream by a gentle cir
cular motion. In FIVE minutes
or less the butter will have come,
when, Of course, it must be wash
ed and settled according to taste;
and our correspondent guaran-
tees that no better butter can be
made by the best churn ever
inrented.n
