- REMARKABLE REMEDIEs :


Having become satisfied, after thorough investigation
that Elastic Sponge, now aud lately Manufactured is
Of the best Of all the substitutes for cured hair for
many II not most uses in upholstery have accepted
the Agency Of IL, and intend 20 make II hereafter q
speciality in our business. The objections which have
been made to H. and which 1t is well known we ourselves
have thought were well founded have can
not he urged against the article now perfected The
process Of manufacture has been entirely remodeed
under the advice and superntcndence of one Of the
most eminent chemists Of New England. New chemical
and mechanical appliances have been introduced In
cleansing crude Sponge and in charging with glycerine
with such entire success that Elastic Sponge may now be
said to be chemically pure There isabsolntely nothing
In Il but the clean hbre Of Sponge and chemically pure
glyeerine.
The objections TO Elastic Sponge being thus removed
there remain lis undsputed merits which certainly en-

one Of the most curious and interesting OF late d-cov-
cries Chief among these merits IS proof against

My plan is to never let the cream stand
over forty.eight hours after it is skinned,
and find no difficulty in churning. In mid
winter, proceed as follows Stand the cream
near the fire, where it will become quite
warm; then let it cool rapidly; add more
cream the next skimming, and SO On until the
fourth skimming. Let it stand all night, ant
in the morning scald out the churn before
using. In case the cream is too cold add a
little boiling water. When the churning is
finished, the butter should be drained and well
worked and on no account should the butter
be washed and for this reason if you wash
butter, it will get strong in half the time il
would by extracting the milk without wash
ing; it must be worked out, or the butter vii
soon become rancid

To II pounds of butter use pound and
half of salt, well worked in, and put in a cool
place until the next morning then work
again, working out the brine which will ac-
cumulate, which is almost equivalent to the
amount of salt put in. If the butter is made
for packing purposes, work it the third
morning, and make into rolls Of convenient
size

err, but, when warm, churning should be done
every morning and the cream kept in as cool
a place as possible also, put large lump
Of ice in the cream over night which will
have no effect on the butter but if the ice

The only method know of, that will thor
oughly cleanse milking vessels, is, to add to
ten gallons Of water half gallon of clean,
strong wood-ashes, and let it come to boil !;
wash the stone crooks in warm water, then
run them around in the boiling lye, and wash
in warm water. This process will do for the
buckets, ladies', the churn, etc. No other
mode will purify the rancidness that will ac-
emulate in a dairy. After washing and
rinsing the crooks expose them to the air and
sun they will be as sweet as when brought
from the store Once month will be suili-
cent for this cleansing All good dairy
women know that the utensils should be wash
ed in boiling water after using

have never found it necessary to use any
thing to color butter, but by observing the
preceding rules, in summer and winter, have
always had good golden butter. This is
the experience Of the past IS years Of farm
life.
Butter for market should be made into
rolls of convenient size-say p pounds in a
roll, and confined in a thin muslin cloth rinsed
in saltwater, then placed in a tub, around
which should be wooden mating
When the above process is used, you can
send butter one hundred miles in midsummer,
and it will keep better than if packed in ice.

that they cannot take twelve or fifteen head
of cattle land give them all the feed they can
possibly eat), and make half the money of
the feed that they could With that number
Of COWS. Then, butter.making is the most
healthy exercise person can take, while the
warm air that arises from bucket of fresh

KEEPING.

The best mode | ever discovered is to make
each roll separate, wrapping a clean thick
cloth around it tightly, then place in tub as
tight and close together as you can cover
with brine, which is made as follows 70
gallons of spring-wuter, add b lbs. OF coarse
salt, OF. Of saltpetre, to 10 o. Of the best
loaf.sugar, all well dissolved This should
cover 100 lbs Of butter, and preserve the
same for six months or more.

ATTENTION, CADETS - hAZINe" MUsT BE
SToPPED-ORDER FROM SECRETARY robson.
The following order has been issued from the
Navy Department:
NAVY DEPARTMENT, November 16, ISL
The Secretary of the Navy learns with regret
that the order from the Department of the fifth
Of October, visiting upon certain cadet midship-
men at the Academy the proper punishment for
the ofienses against good order and discipline,
has failed to utterly remove the evil against
which the order was directed. The Supern-
tendent of the Academy reports that the bar
barous and ungentlemanlike practice OF hazing
has been renewed by certain members of the
class which has just entered upon its second
year at the Academy, and that not only the con-
slant annoyance, but In some instances brutal
treatment, to which certain of the newly-entered
cadets bad been subjected still continues. These
new violations Of discipline and propriety have
been thoroughly investigated by the Superin-
tendent, and they are found TO have been of
the most discreditable and law-defying char
acter. In the previous order the Depart
ment announced its intention to spare no
exercise Of authority nor omit any penalty neces-
sary to eradicate this persistent and defiant folly
and wrong. Young gentlemen elected 10 be ed
ucated for the public service at the public ex-
pense, must realize that the continuance OF the
national favor depends upon the spirit with
their position, like misconduct In any other Of
fee, deserves and will inevitably be followed by
removal. The Department therefore directs
that the SIX cadet nidshipmen who have been
guilty OF oppressive and scandaious conduct
tending to the destruction Of good morals, and
two or whom, IN addition, disgracefuliy broke
their parole, be dropped from the rolls of the
Academy, as unfit for the naval service. Ger
tain other cadet midshipmen, who have been
also guilty in this regard, though in aless degree
will be deprived OF all privileges during the
academic year, as well rs for the next annual
leave. Certain others who have also offended
against the regulations and orders Of the aca-
deny In this regard viii be deprived of ali
privileges during the academic year, and one
iS Of n mi chs .fo
deprived of all privileges for period of three
months. In conclusion, let ii be distinctly un-
derstood that the academy will be purified of
this drgracefui practice and the defiant spirit
which now invokes its action by the dismissaI
II necessary, of every cadet to the very last who
refuses the fullest obedience to the regulations
on this subject.
