Ten Rules to be Observed In Ma
king Butter.

In making good butter there are several
nice operations to be gone through with which
require an eye to cleanlines, forethought and
some little experience.
1. On milking clean, fast, though regu-
larly twice day, depends the success OF the
daryman. Bad milkers should not be toll
Grated in herd; better pay dourle price for
good ones.
2. Straining is quite simple, but it should
be borne in mind that two pans about half
full each will produce a greater amount OF
cream than the same milk if in but one pan;
the reason of this is the greater surface.
8. ScAlding is quite an important feature
in the way of making butter in cool wealth
er: the cream rises much quicker, milk keeps
sweet much longer, the butter is OF better
color, and churns in one-half the time.
4. Skimming should always be done be-
fire the milk becomes loppered; otherwise
much of the cream goes into whey and is
lost.
8. Churning, whether by hand or other
wise, should occupy forty or fifty minutes.
6. Washing in cold soft water is one of
its preserving qualities, and should be con-
tinued until it shows no color of the milk
by the use of the ladle; very hard water is
highly charged with lime, and must in a
measure mpart to it alkaline properties.
7. Sailing is necessarily done with the
best kind of ground salt; the quantity varies
according to the state it is taken from the
churn, if soft, more; if hard, less; always
taking the taste for the surest guide.
8. First working, after about twenty -four
hours, is for the purpose Of givingit greater
compactness.
0. Second working takes place at the time
of packing, and when the butter has dissol-
we'd the salt, that the brine may be worked
out.
10. Packing is done with the hands or
with butter MALL and when butter is put
into wooden vessels, they should be soaked
two or three days in strong brine before
using. After each packing cover tho butter
with wet cloth and put layer Of salt upon
it; In this way the salt can be removed at
any time, by simply taking hold of the ed
gcs of the cloth.
Butter made in this way will keep any
length of time required Genesse Farmer.

The Death OF Little Children.

The remembered innocence and endear-
IN ents of child stand US instead of vir-
tues that have died older. Children
have not exercised tho voluntary Offices
of friendship, they have not chosen to
be kind and ood to US; nor stood by us
from conscious will, in the hour of ad-
versity, But they have shared their
pleasures and pains with us as we'll as
they could, the interchange of good Of
fees between us, has Of necessity, been
less mingled with the troubles OF the
world; the sorrow arising from their
death is the only one which we can as
sociate with their memories. These are
happy thoughts: that cannot die. Our
loss may always render them pensive;
but they will not always be painful. It
is part of the benignity of nature that
pain do not survive like pleasure. at
auy time, much less where the cause of
it is an innocent one. The smile will
remain reflected by memory, as the
moon reflects the light upon US when
the sun is gone into heaven. Now the
liability to the loss of childrcn-or rath-
er what renders US sensible of it, the
the occasional loss itself-seems to be
one of these necessary bitters thrown in
to the cup of humanity. We do not
mean that every one must lose one of
children in order to enjoy the rest, or
that every individual loss afflcts US in
the same proportion. We allude to the
dea this of infants in general. These
might be as few as we could render them.
But if none at all ever took place VIC
should regard every little child as man
or woman secured; and It will easily be
conceived what world Of endearing
cares and hopes this security would en-.
danger. The very idea of infancy would
lose its continuity with US. Girls and
bows would be future men and women,
not present children. They would have
attained their full growth in our imag-
nation, and might as we'll have been
men and women at once. On the other
hand, those who have lost an infant are
never, as it were, without an infant
child. They are the only persons who,
in one sense, retain it always, and they
furnish their neighbors with the same
Idea The other children grow up to
manhood and womauhood, and suffer all
the changes of mortality. This one is
rendered an immortal child. Death has
arrested it with his kindly harshness.

youth and innocence Leigh Hunt,
