I MANAGEMENT OF CREAM IN CoLD
WATERLOO some reason not yet
known, cream skinned from milk ia cold
weather does not come to butter when
churned. SO quickly as that from the same
COW in warm weather. Perhaps. the pei
licles, which form the little sacs of butter
in cream, are thicker and tougher. There
are two methods of obviating this trouble
in q great degree. One is to set the pan
of milk on the stove, or in some warm
place, as soon as strained, and let it1re-f
main until quite. warm-some say until a
skim of cream begins 70 form on the sur
face, Another mode recommended is, to
add table spoonful Of salt to quart Of
cream when it is skinned. Cream thus
prepared will generally come to butter in
few minutes when churned. It Is
thought tho salt acts upon the coating of
the butter giobules and makes them ten
der, SO that they break readily when
beaten by churniLg g g.-Maine Farmer
