Butter and Cheese Factories.
FROM TIE NEW YORK rpIRuNE.

Forty years ago, the State Of New York
grew surplus of Grain (Wheat) for export
alton, and 'Gencsec Flour was known and
priced in many foreign markets. Canal
boats took in Wheat at almost every store
house from Syracuse westward and brought
it to Troy, Albany, and this City, for manu-
facture and SALE Now, all is changed The
Genesee valley is no longer mainly devoted
to Wheat; even the counties west of Cayuga
Lake no longer grow their own Grain.
Sheep husbandry, once popular, is now on
the wane. Dairying is rapidly supplanting
all 0the farming in our rural districts and
we judge that the next census will re-
turn thrice the number of cows in our State
reported in that which preceded it by a de-
eade And even Dairying itself is undergo
ing decided and rapid transformation,
through the Introduction and multiplication
OF factories for the systematic and whole
sole production of Butter and Cheese
These factories are located near the center
of each radius Of three or four miles
wherein grass and cows abound-usnally
but one in a township as yet, though tbcy
are being rapidly multiplied A milI-strcanl
and water-power often determine the site.
though we believe a small engine and boiler
Qour to ten horse) are preferred to a water
power. A cold and copious spring is well
nigh indispensable; good stock Of ice. well
stored and saved, is desirable. 4 large
reservoir (ike CELLAR is dug in the ground
and tightly walled with planks; board Mat
forms extend into this, floating on two o,
three feet of water, constantly renewed from
the spring. In this reservoir, deep pals OF
cans are set and filled three-fourths full o.
milk-they sinking and floating in like
depth OF water. The milks remains here n
10 80 hours, when the cream or WATERPROOF

mill, thus SKINNED, is then mads into cheese

very fair quality. We never wish TO eat bet
ter than some Of this, made wholly of skim

cents per pound to their entire satisfaction
1t is cheaper than Pork, and may be substi
tuted as staple article of diet for laborin
men, to their great advantage and comfort

which are cash articles. We estimate i'm
the Dairy product of our State be increase
a. least one-fourth by the general ntroduc
ton OF these factories, and that The value +
our grass lands will thus he enhanced ,
least $40 per acre.

laying DOWN fAohtss
There is no mode of guarding all vines
and plants not entirely hardy, against our
occasionally severe winters, SO good as tdy-
ing then, down and covering them wifh
soil. Of course we mean those which can
be so treated. The covering should moi be
more than two to four inches, according to
the nature of the thing laid down.
Good Pork.
We reprint an article from the German
town Telegraph, giving some hints, just
now seasonable, on butchering hogs. We
have to say, too that too few people who
kill and work up swine know who to make
good sausage, scrapple and lard of them. We
know of farmer, coming to Wilmington
market who has learned the secret of it,and
his stall, on market days, is throngcd with
buyers, beyond his ability to supply.
Educated Farmers.
The time is not far distant when the farm
ers son will be the man among the well ed
ucated of the day; for already has the spirit
gone ab DAD, and the feelings of all are be-
ginning to be enlisted in this honorable
cause. No longer is the profession viewed
as only fiji for the poor and ignorant, but it
claims that rank 10 which ii is so justly en-
titled
Litter for Housed Animals.
No article should be used in supplying
bedding for domestic animals that will not
become good manure. Old leaves from the
forests, refuse straw, sapdus,, and, indeed,
every article that will absorb the urine, is of
value for this purpose A shed, or other
building, conveniently situated, should he
provided for the storage of tho litter.
