Ohurning Whole Milk.


The temperature at which whole milk
should be churned is 6j degrees; and this
point has an important bearing on the
economy Of making butter from whole milk
over that from cream, since il is more diff
cult 20 lower the temperature Of the cream
In summer, than II Is TO raise the temper
AZURE Of milk in winter. IL is evident that
the temperature Of the atmosphere in the
GUNNER will always be nearer the necessary
temperature Of the whole milk than OF the
cream. 1t follows practically that the
average condition OF the temperature Ofthe
air through the year will be more suited for
making butter from whole milk than from
cream.
We ind that Prof Johnson says, IN emil
merating the advantages Of this method OF
butter making, that "the proper tempera-
ture can be obtained both in winter and
summer hundred gallons Of entire milk
will give in summer per cent. more but
ter than the cream from tl'e same quantity
ofmilk will give. Butter Of the best quail
ty can be obtained without difficult; both
Ia winter and summer. No special atten-
ton TO circumstances or change Of method
ia at any time required The churning
both In winter and summer, j. equally sim
pie and easy. The butter is not only OF the
best quality while fresh, but is also best
for long keeping, when properly cured and
sailed.
The mode TO be pursued where whole
milk Is 20 be churned IS 10 allow the pro
duct OftwO or three mi.kings - stand tili
the cream rises 10 the surface, aud then
to pour the contents OF the vessels contain

milk, il then allowed 10 remain tiil II be-
comes sour and thick. Tie true degree O
sourness is known by thick, uneven skin
formed over the whole mass and wher
this is observed il should be Immediately

But in Holland, where tho whole mills J.
