How / Make Soft Soap.

KEEP my ashes dry, and when put in
the hopper preparatory to making soap, |
have from half to one peck of upslaked
lime put In with the ashes. Before put
ting the grease in, l swing the kettle off
the fire, and lett hang a few moments. If
there is any potash in it, take shovel
and take it out. For if there is much
potash in, it will not make good soap.
pack the ashes well, adding water
enough to dampen them. Then / put
three or four buckets of water on each
day for two or three days, until / think it
sufficiently soaked. And lastly, pour
on boiling water to run the I've off. As
soon as l have enough run off to com
mence boiling, l put my kettle over the
fire and boil the lye as fast as it will boil,
still adding more lye as it boils down. In
this way / continue for whole day. By
evening, it will probably be sufficiently
strong to eat feather in passing it three
times across the liquid. I now put my
grease in (all l think it will eat), still boil
ing as fast as / can without its running
over. If it eats the grease all up l add
more. / now leave my kettle to hang
over the fire all night. In the morning if
there are any scraps of grease that are
not eaten up, | boil again for an hour or
two, and if they do not dissolve l take
them out. Then / take out a few spoon
fuls of the soap and set it away a little
while to cool. When cold, if there is no
lye under it and it appears free from
grease, set my kettle off. and hang an
other one to boil more lye Managing in
this way, generally can make from six
teen to eighteen gallons of nice white
soap in two days, and often in one day
and a night.

similar one, any one can make strong,

Apples for Mich Cows.

THE Hartford COurdnt gives an account
of an experiment made last fall in feeding
apples to milch COWS, by Erastus Els
worth, of East Windsor Hill, Conn, q
gentleman eighty-three years of age.
A large cow, something along in years,
feeding exclusively on summer pasturage,
and producing four wine quarts daily,
was used for the first experiment, begin
ming about August 1, with four quarts oi
apples night and morning. The quantity
was increased, until at the end of a week
she was eating bushel of the hardest,
sourest wind-fall apples each day. Thi:
cow was near her time of going dry, but
such was the effect of the apples as tC
bring her produce of milk from four quarts
to rather more than six quarts per diem.
Another COW, in fresher milk, yielding
eight quarts daily, was then put upon q
ration of apples. At this time Mr.. Ellis
worth's cows had been running several
days in rowen feed, which would natu.
rally help flush the milk-pail. Yet upon
the top of this succulent pasture the sec
ond COW was brought, when upon heI
full rations of apples-a half bushel night
and morning-to regular daily yield OF
twelve to fourteen quarts of milk.
All of these COWS, five in number-ex.
cepting one-would have eaten more ap
Piles if they could have got them. That
one was younger and smaller, though q
good-sized heifer. Half a bushel was
found to be as many, and sometimes more,
than she could manage at one feeding.
The butter made from the milk was
first,rate, and there had not been noticed
the least symptoms of i'll effects of the ap
ples on the cows.
