CAUSES OF BAD MILK-Somc years since a
dairyman enunciated certain rules of dairy
management which should be especially
brought to, and kept in mind, now that the
butter and cheese making season is about to
begin. These inculcated the truths that milk
cannot bc good when the animals drink stag,
nant or impure water; when they are heated
by rapid driving from pasture to coward, or
by abuse and blows during milking time or
when from any cause they are afflicted with
disorders, showing bad condition of the
blood These are brief and to the point; they
are also absolutely true in their statements of
fact, and undenablc considered from scicn-
tifc stand point. They should be remem-
bered and acted upon all summer long, alike
by the master dairyman and the boy who
controls the dog that brings the cows.

WATER AS A Presenter or BUTTER.-At-
ter being duly packed water-tight, the pack
ages may be placed in good, cold, water, such
as is found in good wells and springs any
where. Any such good well of water may be
used for this purpose, only be sure the pack.
age is completely under water always; and
if under water several feet deep, it is no dc
triment, but probably an advantage.
1t is not necessary, but probably best, that
the packages should not rest on the clean
ground at the bottom of the well-not that
any harm would happen to the butter, but
the outside of the package might get solled
and muddy.
A deep tank, kept full of water from flow
ing spring and continually flowing, may be
the most desirable reservoir for keeping but
ter in, if the tank is well covered and kept
from freezing.
No one need be surprised if butter stored
in this way may be kept for years as good as
when packed Possibly lard and some arti-
Giles of food may be stored in this way.-Cor.
