churn More Milk or Skim Deeper.

A correspondent of the Mark Lane Ex-
press says: From observation, | believe
too many butter makers oknot skim as
deep or churn as much milk as they ought.
| hear them say often that they do not
like to get so much milk, or sour cream,
in with the cream. 1t is common prac-
tice for most butter makers to have skim
mer that is perforated with holes, that the
milk may pass through into the pan from
which the milk is being taken. If any
one has better reason for not Swimming
deeper, shall be pleased to hear it, and
herewith give my reason why | think We
ought to skim deeper and churn more milk
with the cream.
First, there are but few dairy houses so
far remote from the odorS of the kitchen,
swill pail or barrels, or some decaying
vegetable matter, as to keep the cream
from absorbing odors that injure the fla
vor of the butter: and the cream must
first receive, or have the odors pass through
it, before they can reach the milk, as it is
most exposed. The milk therefore must
be pure, and, if churned with the cream,
will aid IN taking up the odors from the
butter. By churning only the cream, the
dash of the churn must, as we think. in
jure the butter globules and make the but
ter salvy, as the friction is more directly
applied to them than would be the case if
milk was mixed with the cream.
There are times when the milk sours be-
fore all the cream is up; yet the milk must
be nearly, if not quite as good, from the
same COW that is being fed the same feed,
in a warm morning as it is in cool NOR
ning But we often get twice the amount
of cream in the cool days that we do in
the warm days and the quality Is better
Take for instance the 9th of August, a
hot, sultry day the cream hardly paid for
the labor. Now, take the 26th of the same
month, 1869, a good cool day that gave a
nice yield Of cream. Is it to be supposed
| that there IS that difference in the milk
produced from the same COW on those days,
when the cows were fed in the same pas
ture, that there wa, in the amount of but
ter made from their milk by skimming the
cream only? have thought that when
the milk Is brought in in a heated eondi-
ton, and placed in a warm room, that per
hap, many Of the butter globules were ex-
| ploded by the heat and that they mingled
with the milk like alcohol with water. but
to churn all the milk would be to get more
butter,

ThA Church a Hornn

There Is IN enthusiasm which ignores
church organization altogether, contemns
all formularies, rejects the ministry, and
asks that men be let alone with their BIZ
bles, to worship in unembarrassed isola-
ton. Suppose that a house leaks in wa
ter through the roof, or lets in wind thro'
a crevice in the wall, or have some defec-
tive timbers-shall the family, imperfectly
sheltered destroy the structure entirely,
and take to the outer rain, the cold, and
the storm, each member for himself
Suppose that because the church Is def

In Christ.

Let me hear, when | am on my death
bed, that Christ died in the stead of sin
ners, of whom | am chief that he was
forsaken of God, during those fearful
agonies, because he had taken my place
that on his cross | paid the penalty of my
guilt. Let me hear, too, that his blood
cleanseth from all sin, and that | may
now appear before the bar of God, not as
pardoned only, but innocent. Let me
realize the great mystery of the reciprocal
substitution of Christ and the believer, or
rather their pefect unity, He in them,
they in Him, which he has expressly
taught and let me believe that | was. in

feet stand before the throne in my person,

reward. Verify thou shalt answer for my
trust. In thee trusted; let me never be

Brahma Fowls

consider the Brahma superior to any
other breed Of fowls for four reasons
first, because they are great layers, and
seem inclined to lay in mid-winter, when
eggs are most desirable and command
high price in the market; second. they are
good mothers and good sitters; third, they
are always in a fit condition for the mar
ket, and fourth, they are very hardy and
will endure great degree Of cold. |
have now a pair Of pure Brahma fowls
which weigh twenty-nine pounds have
also few of the Brahma mixed with the
common breed Of fowls One Of these has
laid two filters Of eggs since January st,
and Is now laying a third. Another has
hatched eight chickens from nine eggs the
present season. and Is now laying again
These fowls have proved satisfactory to
me, and ! think they will to all others
who try to raise them.-A LITTLE Boy. in

The Response of Conscience.

The most solemn attribute of man is
that something within his soul, however
it may be defined, which accuses or ex-
cuses. in the realm of right and wrong. |
1t intensifes the two ideas of personality
and responsibility. 1t writes them upon
the soul as with a pen ofiron, They may |
be obscured, hut by no possibility erased.
Conscience forbids a man to lose himself
III nature. in the crowd, in fate 1t makes |
him stand apart,-himself,-accou |
to an intelligent Power outside of him,
above him, from whom he cannot escape
Evcr when it becomes blinded by persis-
tent sin, it i, still a blinded Samson, ready
at some Unlooked-for moment to sunder
whatever cords false religion or a false
life may have bound it with, and to re-
affirm its testimony. An athei,tic philo,-
ophy or science finds in conscience its
most determined antagonist The mere
intellect may succumb to vain speculation,
or to what Mr. Huxley calls a 'philos-
optical faith, but conscience stands guard
in the very citadel of our being. The
Gospel recognizes this fact, in commend
ing itself to every mans conscience. Per-
,dnal esponsibility--I am. | am account
able-this perpetually haunts mankind
the proof of mans Immortality, Il, also
the source Of his deepest misery, except
when the conscience Is purified by faith.
Here Is our hope for the race. Far gone
a it is from God. there yet remains this
