Correspondence.

JEFrERsoNvrLLE, W., Nov. 18th, 1870.
Mr.. Hiram Atkins, Editor Of The Argus
and Patriot-Sr:
In your issue of Nov. 18th, you pub
| li>h a series of lies, to be darkened only
by the mean soul of the author.
The charge, ardent Republican" is
all right; that is me. That | was chair
man of any committee at the Stowe con-
vention, last fall, shows how well-iuformed
your correspondent is, and how hard the
drunken, vilainous wretch is working to
bring me down on to level with him. Il
was only an obscure delegate to the afore-
said convention.)
As regards the stealing hay, or anything
else | will defy any man on earth to say
| ever stole or took from him a penny's
worth. AS regards the $50 paid i. Carl
ton, it was for hay fed my horse by
brother Of mine, 13 years old, who had
rather take the hay where it would save
time and work; not for the purpose of
stealing, but boyish trick. Mr.. Atkins,
| have got about 10 tons of hay to sell,
besides what | have sold, and have no
desire to steal or have my employees steal
for me.
AS regards the $2O.club for a maya
zine, the statement is right out lie. |
never heard Of it before, nor any one else
around here, except the dirty wretch, your
informant.
As regards the 50 so handed me by
Mr.. Raymore. gave him my receipt for
it and do not believe he has worried much
about il, for he knows that | am good for
small sums. Your informant states that
his receipt has come. | know better, for
| have not as yet forwarded the money,
and keep the subscriptions until | get FIVE
or six 80 as to save expense in forwarding.
You FAY money mailed at the Office for
you never reached you. That may be ;
but it left this Office all right, and Mr..
Griswold, the gentleman who mailed it,
knows and believes it.
The assertion was also made that | was
''removed" as p. M. That is an outright
lie. resigned the Office in favor Of Il.
Q. Smith, and worked to help him get it,
but that's neither here nor there, mo
crime and none of your business.
AS regards the assertion about the ar
gas d Patriot being allowed to pass thro'
the Post Offices, etc. am sure never
made the assertion, but, Mr.. Atkins, l
am no friend to your style of publication,
for you arc "too much on the twit," re.
mark made by an old subscriber of yours
to me, yesterdy, aud who said you had
ought to be correctly Informed about It.

Bookkeeping butter and cheese, and
the best method of feeding the refuse

Sec. Is. Harris. The making Of
butter and cheese is a delicate business
to speak about. We all think we make
the best, or at least as good as any. All
women think they know all about the bus.
mess, and nothing will raise a woman's
"dander' so quick as to tell her she does
not make good butter. Some think it
does not injure them for their neighbors
to make butter of poor quality, but it does,
and very directly, too. Butter sells here
for from 25 to 40 cents per pound now,
but in Boston there is much wider range
of prices, and the difference between the
rates here and there have to be made up
by those who make nice article getting
less and those who make poor article
getting more than they ought so it in
jures every one of us if others make poor
butter or cheese. ....
Very much is due to carclessness in
milking. Some men think they can 90
from any work, however dirty, and milk,
aud rattle the filth into the pail some
smoke and let ashes and tobacco drop
from the pipe into the milk or chew, and
in splitting over let little fall in, and
some, too think it does not iujurc the quail
ity of the butter by SO doing.
In many kitchers and milk rooms you
will see the same lack of neatness Pans
are slovenly washed and half scalded, and
little sour milk and rancid cream is left
to faint the next mess Of milk, and then
they are surprised that the butter is not
extra
Sometimes the milk house, hen house
and privy are all under one roof, and the
foul scents of the two latter faint the milk
and cream SO 1t is impossible 10 make nice
butter; none of the butter known as tex
ira" or ''gilt edged" can be made under
such circumstances.
All about the milk house should be
neat and clean, and the most scrupuous
care should be taken that nothing often
sive to smell or taste be permitted to touch
the milk in any Of the stages it passes
through to become butter.
Milk should be kept as nearly at an
even temperature as it can be. think
the best way is to set it in tin watts, one Of
which is large enough for the milk at one
milking, these to be enclosed in a pine
casing with space for cold or warm water
between to keep the milk at the right
pint for the cream to rise which is about
$50. Await "a by 40 inches and 8 inch
os deep is large enough for 20 COWS, and
they are much easier to keep clean than
the three dozen pans used now are.

there is right temperature for working
butter, and if it is worked then, it may

year round. A friend of mine works on
farm on the Hudson, and their butter
sells for 81 per pound; it is made in nice
balls and packed in cases with shelves to
lay it on, and ice at the bottom.
A gcnerel discussion here ensued on
keeping butter without salt, and the gen.
eral opinion was it would keep as well
without if the buttermilk was out.

since, and friend Of mine said to me,
'your people make your butter too salt

side, and one looked and tasted as well
as the other except the salt, but the salt
one sold for 4c. less per pound, and was
classed as cheap butter.
| use less salt than last year; used l
