There is custom of scalding cream pre-
vailing in Devonshire, England, which is
worthy of a wider extension. The pro-
duct "clouteu' cream, also called ''Devon-
shire" cream, is exceedingly rich, thick and
palatable,s and is accounted a luxury
wherever Obtanable. The process is the
following: The milk is allowed to stand
in the dairy, which must be too cool to al
low 1t to sour, from twelve to twentv-four
hourS-that is, the milk Of one day is at
tended to on the following morning. II Is
set IN tin pins about seven inches deep
these have a good handle at each side as a
help to careful moving. Most of the cream
VIII have risen at the time of the prepura-
tlon, which consists in scaldng simply,
care being taken not 10 allow the milk To
reach the boiling point. The best way
would he to set the pan in gently boiling
water The heat must be kept up until the
milk becomes very hot, and the cream
thoroughly "crinkled' or clotted; the pan
should then be removed carefully to Il cool
place, and allowed to stand undiSturbed for
twenty -four hours. The cream may then
he removed, and, either fresh or Satel. it
is an excellent substitute for, many think
great Improvement upon butter. 1t is es-
pccially important that there should be no
smoke in the apartment where the scalling
