3 BUTTER WITHOUT CHURNINe. q
recent meeting of the American In
stitute Farmers Club, MIR. Sylvester
stated that he had tried the expert
'ment Of making butter by burying
the cream in a linen, and that in an-
other bag to keep it clean, which he
buried about eighteen inches deep,
and after twenty-four hours took it
up, and found the cream as thorough
,ly converted into butter as it is by
churning. It is just in the condition
butter is when it is eecome, without
being adhered by the dasher.. Itwns
worked in the usual way, and made
as good butter as ever was churned.

The .Josssasal says that the first fc-
male secessionist was Madam Eve
who seeded. from Adam. Perhaps
the on.aM viii take time to explain
where it found the record of the. fact
that Eve, left her iege lord. There
is no account Of any sich transactieu
IN any Bible we ever saw; and we are
compelled to believe that the Jozfrndl
is mistaken. We are, however, open
to- convection, and cub for the proof:
Eve was q distant relative Of ours,
and if secessionism is q reproach, we
desirs to protect her against the
charge. We have always thought
that that it was an appetite for apples
which caused the difficulty to which
the Journal refers. We May be mis-
taken, however, and are ready to re-
ceive the .7osy.aal's proof.
