PRESERVATION OF BUTTER IN FaANCE.-
On this subject the Journal of the Society OF
Arts says: One part of sugar, one part OF
nitre and two parts of salt reduced to a very
fine powder, constitutes a good mixture for The
rather more than two ounces of .his mixture is
sufficient for a kilogramme, CT about tW Q
pounds and quarter Of fresh butter, which
thus prepared, remains very good a fortnight
afterwards its taste is very soft and agreea-
BILE. and it will last four years There is also
another mode of preserving, viz. the butter is
melted and purified with honey. sixty gra mines
of which is used for each kiogramme, the two
substances being mixed with care. An agree
able flavor is obtained, and il will remain good
a long time.

TKR.-It is . practice with many who keep
poultry to feed them these sharp winter morn

throwing it out. Let those who dislike cold
breakfast themselves take dish OF corn and
set it under the stove few moments. or pour
hot water on it. 1t will soon heat either way.
After feeding of your poultry, the lively cooling

sires TO know what will cure worms in a
horse Worms are sometimes caused BY de-

by high feeding, that is by over or injudicious

would be to feed higher. If by the latter,
gradually reduce the feed. Go and get aso

BUTTER FROM WEHY.-A statement was
made at the recent Utica Dairymen couven-
ton in relation to a patent for making butter
from whey which brought out the following
statement by Mr.. Riggs Of Lewis county, of
his success in this line without the patent pro
cess.
After separating the whey from the curd,
place il in a tin vat AMI add liquid acid.
One gallon to the whey of so gallons of milk,
if the whey is sweet but less quantity If
changed. After this, apply heat until it iudi-
Gates q temperature of from 200 to 2l2 de-
grees, fahrenheit When TIE cream rises and
10 skinned off and placed in cool place, let
il stand till the next day. Then ii is churped
at a temperature ranging from So TO 6o de-
gress. depending on the weather, and 1t Is
worked over and sailed in the usual manner
of butter making. IL will produce on an av-
srsgs one pound of butter from the whey &
$50 pounds of milk. The acid Is made hy
taking any quantity of whey at boiling heat
otter the cream is extracted, adding L gallon
of strictly sour whey to 10 gallons OF this
boiling whey. when all the casein remaining
in the whey is collected together IN one mass
and ia skinned off. After the whey Is let
stand from "a to 48 hours, it is ready for use
as acid. This process is repeated as often as
necessity requires.
