Butter and Cheese,

| We long ago suggested, says the Ploughmdn,
that the manufacture of butter and cheese in the
same dairy could be Carried On more eeonomi-
caliy than either alone, the milk being set but a
short time, and then SKINNED, making the
richest quality of butter of which it is capable,
and leaving the milk still tolerably rich for a
good quality Of cheese. The Rural Ne,o York
er answers series Of inquiries rs to the details
OF ests blIshing factory, taking the same ground,
as follows
i L. The most profitable way of managing milk
/ IL to work it up iu to both butter and cheese.
1t is one Of the features OF the dairy. The
factory is arranged so that as soon as the mllk
is received it is put ia long tin paile, holding
say 10 10 30 quarts each, which are then lmme-
dIate.y plunged IN spring water at tenpera-
ture of from 4S to 50 degrees. The milk re-
mains In this position for "A hours, when IL IL
taken out, the cream clipped II and sent 10 the
churns while tie skim milk is employed for
making :. SKIM cheese - SKIN. cheese" during
the latter part of the past season, has COM
manded as high price IN market as that f.om
whole milk From experiments made during
the past season, ii has been found that by the
above process the aVeiage from Ii quarts OF
mix. wine measure. Il one pauBd OF butter and
TWO pounds OF cheese. When cheese alone Is
made the average Is one pound OF cheese irom
nine pounds VI milk
z Three hundred cows is the loves, number
There IL but little difference in the expense OF
conducting factory whether the number OF
cows be 300 or 500.

CHLORINE As A DIsINFEcTANT.-A French
chemist has recently brought forward q cheap
method Of generating chlorine a disnfectant,
in place OF the comparatively expensive chloride
Of lime The preparation consists OF common
salt, red lead, sulphuric acid, and cold water
The red lead Is mixed with the salt, and intro
duced into bottle full of wafer the sulphurIc
acid Is added after era iaally. and shaken
at intervals. By this process sulphate OF lead
formed and pre- 'ipI;ated and suiphate OF sod,
and chlorine remain dissolved in the water.
The chlorine, which gives the liquij yellow
color, IL disengaged soon the bottle Is
opened. This preparation presents another ad-
vantage, IN addition to that Of cheapness, name
y il does not disengage the chlorine too rapidly,
and i, hence, not 50 rapidly exhausted. Ii,
however, rapid disengagensent be requir i, the
liquid may be poured mo fat plates. to
offer large surface for evaporation. Managed
according to this method, the preparation IL
found to realize the most satisfactory results as
