SoILING vs. TURIsG-Let me recite the
experience and practice of friend of mine
Coming int possession of about nine acres of
land in the ighborhood of good market
made by the demands of large literary in
stitution, he cast about as to what was to be
done. Two cows and horse was the stock
in trade for neat cattle. He was obliged to
pay, per season. men for pasturage, what they
thought it was worth, and at the same time
ID was no small job to drive his cows back and
forth. That determined him to keep his cows
in the barn. The greatest trouble was the
rapid accumulation of manure By good
husbandry he properly secured that-he kept
feeding it to bis crops. Finding his crops IN
creasing he added another COW. Another
cow only made more manure. More manure
husbanded in the same way, made more crops
and the third year he added another COW.
Now began another serious difficulty His
barn was too small. Still, at the end of the
fourth year, he put in another COW, and set
himself at work to get up new barn, and
when | last saw him he had a new barn
with modern improvements, of good size, a
horse, pair of cattle and FIVE COWS, and vet
had not thought of buying more land, but
wanted more cows.
Now. people who do not want large &C
emulation of manure and gradual increase
of crops. shOu d not adopt that style. But it
seems to me that, in our towns, where home
steads are in small lots and not easily pro-
cured, no better course can be pursued than
soiling the COW, and at the same time fatten-
ing the soil--Ns,r. Eng Homestead.

BUTrER.-I keep twenty-three cows Of the
native stock, with a slight mixture of Dur
ham their feed was the fall feed in my NOW
fields. with pumpkins in the morning the
cream was gathered in three days from milk
that set thirty six hours alter milking the
cream then set twenty-four hours, then was
churned when the butter came it was put
in wooden bowl and washed with spring
wafer until the milk was all washed out and
the water ceased to be colo ed and remained
clear, then the Ashton salt is work ed in by
hand at the rate of one ounce to pound of
butter the butter is then set away TO stand
twenty four hours, then it is worked over by
hani, taking small quantity at a time and
working out all the brine, then it is pounded
down in the tub; the tub is filled within a
half inch of the top, then it ID covered with
cloth over which is spread a thin layer of
salt. This tub was packed the 4th OF Octo-
Der Cream is not churned the same day it
is skinned as it will sometimes have pc
culiar taste which it does not have after
standing twenty hours. In the fall the pans
are filled two thirds full and the cream rises
as well, but in summer it should be more
shallow

. The IMPEACHMENT INQUIRY.-The Judicial
ry Committee has about concluded its labors
for the present! The result of the investiga-
ton is thus summed up in a w aslrington dis
patch to the Boston Advertiser: sQs>a -- I.I
The seven Republican members of the com
mittee would undoubtedly agree in the STRONG
est report OF censure upon the President that
could be drawn, but are divided on the ques-
ton of impeachment. The charge or insinua-
Q ton of Messrs. Ashley, Loan and Butler that
Mr.. johnson is guilty of completely in the as
sassination, has not been sustained. The evil
dence on that point is, in the opinion Of at
least seven members, entirely conclusive
against the suspicion,--one Of the most radical
of them declaring that it wouldn't be received
by am ordinary police justice. 1t must, howev-
er, be added on this point, that the President
seems to have shown almost criminal negli-
gence in not aiding the efforts to bring the con
spirators in the great plot to punishment. He
has done his utmost to further his reconstruc-
ton policy, bit nit cannot be learned that, since
the hanging of Mrs. Surratt and her associates,
he has ever given an order or made, a sugges-
ton calculated to further the work of unveil-
ing the mystery OF the infamous crime that cul-
minated on the 14th of April, 1865. The evi-
dence taken by the committee probably does
not show that the President is guilty of receiy-
ing brides or other direct Considerations for
pardons or favors of any kind, but it reveals an
astonishing amount of corruption in every
rank of the whole crowd of those who appar-
emily have his favor in their control. Wheth-
er it has been cenclusively shown that he is
guilty of making corrupt use of the pardon
ing power is not kn own, but it is very clear
that in a few instances persons have found
means for getting favorable action at his
hands. White, as before stated, Vote h.a..
been taken III committee, it is thought that no
injustice will be- done in saying that Messrs.
Boutwell,, Lawrence and Williams are of opin-
ion that articles of impeachment should be
presented, and it is believed that Mr.. Thomas
