THE RUTLAND RAILROADS. RECENT
LEAsE,-The paragraph which is going
the rounds of the newspapers relative to
the lease by the Rutland Railroad for
fifteen years of that portion of the Yer
mont and Massachusetts, Railroad between
Brattleboro and CIRCUITS Corners, dis
tance of twenty-one miles, states the fact
correctly, but is full of errors relative to
the term of the lease. The Boston Adge2-
tlser speaking intelligently upon this
point, says the correct figures are rs fol-
lows For the first five years the lessees
pay the sum of $4,000 per annum; for
the next five, $4,000; for the last five,
$4,000. BY this arrangement the Rut.
land Railroad obtains control of an UNI
broken line between Burlington, VT, to
CIRCUITS Corners, distance Of 165 miles,
besides upwards of sixty miles additional
with it's steamboat line at
Plattsburgh The entire line, rail and
water, controlled by this company COM
prices about $50 miies, being greater
distance than is controlled by any other
New England corporation, with one ex.
ception. The advantages to the lessees of
the section of the Vermont and Massachu-
setts road will be readily seen after an in
spection of the map. 1t forms part of a
north and south line, and can be operated
by the 1essees in connection with the Yer
mont Valley road under largely reduced
expenses The present earnings of the
section are sufficient to yield handsome
profit to the lessees, apart from the adj
vantages which will accrue to their main
line from the lease.

The most economical and best bread, es-
pecially in cold weather, when hot fire is
constantly kept, is what is sometimes called
gems or unleaven biscuit. For this pur-
pose group of cast-ir0n pans or cups two
and one half by three one half inches each,
all made in one casting, is used. These
pans are set on the top of a hot stove and al
lowed to become.almOs smoking hot when
buttered for use. Then with cold water
and milk, half-and-half, or with cold water
alone, and the colder the better, mix and
stir quickly with a stiff spoon as much
Graham or unbolte wheat-meal as will
make stiff batter or thinnish mush and
when the pans are hot, fill them quickly
with the thin dough and let them stand
minute on the stove before putting into a
very hot oven, where they should remain
twenty or twenty-five minutes, until done.
If the mixture be neither too thin nor too
stiff, and the pans and oven be hot. you
will have twelve as light and wholesome
biscuits as any epicure could wish to eat.
They can be eaten smoking warm from the
oven, as the contain no poisonous chemical
elements like yeast bread, which requires
cooling to be rid of. They are good cold.
or may warmed in steam kettle. Any
body, however unskilled in cooking, can
learn to make these light and nice every
time. Nice, fresh wheat-meal, very cold
wetting, quickly done, with very hot
place to bake them, will insure the best of
''luck" always. These, like all other
Graham bread, should be fresh every day.
For growing children, and those people
who work or think, and especially students
and sedentary persons, there is no other
bread, and scarcly any other single article
of food, that equals it. Let the poor who
cannot afford to lose IA per cent. ofthe grain
in cast-off bran; let those whose bones and
muscles are small, tending to ricketts, and
spinal curvature let invalids and dyspep-
tics try it and they will never 60 back to
superfine bread simply because it looks
white and nice, and, when dry, is more
pleasant to the mouth than the brown

AMOUNT OF BUTTER IN MILK.

With the view of learning the amount Of
butter to be obtained from given quantity
OF milk, have recently tried the follow
ing experiment at my creamery in Onon-
dago County, N. r., where l received
milk from three hundred cows.
The milk delivered at the factory on
Saturday evening, July, 30th, and Sun
day morning July 31st, amounting to
5729 pounds, as soon as received, was
run into deep cooler pals, and these were
set into the tank of spring water. The
temperature of this water is maintained at
uniform temperature of 50 degrees by
the introduction of an inch stream OF
water from the the spring.
In this vat the pals remained for about
thirty hours, when they were removed in
order that. by free exposure to the at
mosphere, the milk might be soured. Il
might produce better result if the pals
had been allowed to remain immersed in
the water until the milk became loppered,
but we feared that so long an exposure Of
the milk and cream to such degree OF
cold would cause bitterness of flavor to
the cream and the butter made therefrom.
When about forty-eight hours old, the
milk having soured and thickened, the
cream was removed and kept until the
next day. On Wednesday churning was
done in large dash ehurns operated by
steam power. From this 5729 pounds Of
milk there was produced 232 pounds OF
butter. This shows an advantage of "a
69-100 pounds of milk being required for
a pound of butter, very closely meeting
the opinion generally held, that two and .
half times as much milk is used in making
a pound of butter as in producing pound
of Cheese. At the season Of the year
above named a yield of one pound Of
curd cheese from ten pounds OF milk is
very satisfactory. This would have pro-
duced 573 pounds of cured cheese from the
milk used in this experiment, which gave
me 232 pounds of butter.
Cheese at that time was worth IA cents
pound. Butter to pay as we'll as cheese
at this price, would need to sell at fully 35
cents a pound, allowing that the material
used in making and packing butter cost
one half cent per pound more than those
required for cheese.
From this loppered milk, which in my
case, went tosthe pigs, there is sometimes
made kind of cheese used mainly by the
German Jews. The curd Is heated to
high temperature, is not salted, hut is
placed in small bags holding about one
half a pound, and subjected to moderate
and long continued pressure. When re-
moved from this pressure, the cheese is
cone shaped, two sides being fattened,
salt is rubbed upon the outside and the
curing is done in a cool damp place, as il
the case with Limburg cheese. There is
small demand for this kind of cheese, and
if there was large demand, the preju-
dice of the Jews will allow them 10 eat
only that which Jewish hands have made
