Rancid Butter.

1t is Owing4to lack of information,
or to the carelessness on the part of
butter makers, that so much of a rancid
or inferior character of butter finds its
way to market. A good article is as
easily made as a poor one, and the
former Will be found more profitable to
the manufacturer, in the long run, than
the latter. The butter maker should
reflect that to make or prepare good
butter is one thing, and only portion
of the business. 1t requires care in the
preservation after it is made. If it is
to be kept any considerable time, it
should be packed down with great care,
in order that the air may be excluded
from the mass as much as possible.
Cracked crooks or imperfect butter tubs
should not be used, because they will
not hold MISUNDERSTANDING atmosphere
as perfectly tight ones will do. Work
the butter clear of milk, but do not
tear the grain more than absolutely ne
cessary for this purpose Salt literally
and evenly, but not for the purpose of
selling salt instead of butter. Pack
closely, excluding all the air possible.
If not intended for immediate use. cover
the sutface with strong brine or a
profuse coating of salt. Over all put a
tight cover, and the necessary precau-
ton for preservation has been taken.
When a portion of tub or crock is re-
moved for use, see that the surface is
kept intact, else the action of the at
mosphere will soon impart rancid fla
vor to what is left, rendering it unfit
for table use. 1t is owing solely to
carelessness in these respects, that so
much poor butter finds its way to mar
ket, entailing an unnecessary loss to
the manufacturers, and thereby impair
ing their reputation IN market.

and stirring up scandal. History and
literature are full of Misrepresentation;
the whole nation is grooming under
burden of liss.
And who can fail to see that one fruit
full source of these evils may be found
in the neglect of early training, as above
specified.
A practical question here arises; how
shall the habit of accurate OBSERVE
ton be formed in childhood? | answer
briefy-encourage the child to observe
with fixed attention, everything and
every occurrence that meets his senses.
Here is a test of this accuracy; require
description of what has been seen or
heard. For instance the mother isabout
to spread the table and furnish 1T for
tea-party, she requires her little girl to
sit down and watch everymovementuntll
her meal is accomplished, and then she
will be expected to give full account
of every step in the process, IN its order,
and in full, even to the number OF plates
cups and saucers, knives and forks and
spoons which have been used. Or this
mother wishes to send her boy on an err
rand She gives him the message, but
before allowing him to start, she requires
until he has fixed every particular in his
mind. Had the father who sent his son
to neighbors house to borrow a flower
barrel, for the purpose of combining his
puppy, taking this course, he would not
have been mortified by hearing, the next
day, that his boy asked the neighbor for
san empty barrel of flour, to make
dog hen coop" Direct the attention
of the child the phenomena of nature
train him to observe accurately the time,
as indicated by the watch, the clock, and
especially, the sun, so that he may know
the hours as they pass, by observation,
and acquire the habits of promptnsss
and industry Teach him the import
ance of order which is "heaven's first
law, and system in all that he does; and
do not forget that correct judgement,
which is indispensable to success in life,
cannot be formed without full knowl-
edge of the facts, and principles and
processes of reasoning that have bear
ing upon the subject, and that these can
be gained only by accurate observation
and study. PARENs.. =

farming lands, the large, well kept and
well managed diaries, the intelligence and
moral worth of its people, but it would
not occur to him as he gets through, 'un-
less he should come in contact with the
newly opened auarries, that it would be
good place to open market for saws,
hammers or paint brushes, for the con-
clusion would irresistibly force itself
upon him, that very. few of those arti-
Giles would be wanted there.
But it is said the lands viii produce
Just as well without manufacturing in
town, as with. Nobody pretends that
manufacturing has any thing to do with
the laws of vegetation; but there is this
about it, which will be found true al
most without exception. Where there
is no manufacturing or business to call
together a population to make a market
for the farmers produce, there win be
found a want of energy, activity and
thrift among the farmers. They do not
cultivate their lands as well. This the
careful observer finds almost inevitable,
and those men who have been laboring
so hard to raise the standard of farming
! by promulgating science on thatsubject,
seem about coming to the conclusion
that the only way to do it is to Increase
the manufacturing, mining and business
interests of the State, and thereby slim
ulate the farmers to greater activity,
by opening markets for their produce.
All this may be regarded as digres-
sion from the subject indicated at the
head of this article, but the purpose has
been to show the people of Pawlet, that
for the benefit of their town, they may
well encourage all reasonable efforts to
foster this newly discovered slate in
terest. Thirty years ago, or thereabouts,
Pawlet had the largest manufacturing
interest in Rutland County. 1t went
down as nearly all other manufactures
of wooden and cotton goods in this sec
ton had to at that time, and with it,
carried several worthy citizens into
bankruptcy, much to the regret of the
people, and the disparagement of the
interests of the town. Yet the people
of Pawlet may hail with pleasure and
satisfaction, the new enterprise in their
town, and rejoice that another avenue is
opened for industry therein, which now
promises so much for success. The
great want of Vermont is something
that will give remunerative employment
to more men and women, and we are
very happy to announce that the good
old town of Pawlet seems now in fair
way to supply its share of this want.

crossed the Rio Grande, and by forced
march of eighty miles, into the interior
of Mexico, reached the camp of the
Kickapoos at early dawn, attacked
them, killed nineteen warriors, wounded

sides other property stolen by the Indi-

believe the fact, as. stated In the dis
patch, that the authorities on the Mexi-
can frontier have assumed very hos
tile attitude towards us, !" and it may be
that the influential men of the towns
along the line are apprehensive.of hos
tilities arising between the two coun-
tries, believing that the difficulties that
have arisen between. the inhabitants of
both banks of the Rio Grande, can only
be settled by the arbitrament of the

not by reason of the high-handed act of
General Mackenzie, although this may
prove to be the last hair to break the
camel's back. Mexico is a weak, de-
fenceless country, unable to cope with
us, and barely able to keep peace within
her own borders, and herein lies the
greater shame and disgrace to us of this
violation of her territorial rights. Had
Mackenzie been stationed'on our north
ern frontier, he would not, probably,
have been in so much haste, to attack a
camp of the enemy eighty miles, or, even
half mile, in the interior. Great Brit
ain, like the United States, is prosper.
Gus and powerful nation, ready at all
times, to resent an invasion of herterri-
tory or an insult to her flag, and is,
therefore, protected against such. indis-
criminate raids, made under the infu-
ence of undue zeal and criminal lack
of discretion. Weak and defenseless as
Mexico is, the United States is bound to
concede and accord to her the same
rights she claims for herself. We trust
that the government will maintain the
national honor unsullied by promptly
disavowing General Maokenzie's act and
apologizing to Mexico therefor. If, as
a country, we desire to maintain hon
orable and lasting peace with all nations,
we will not only take this course, but
will, also, by our treatment of the Of
ficer directing this act of violence, de-
ter all others from similar breaches of
international law and treaty stipulations
in the future -.

NUMBER ".


In our last number the state manu-
facture, in the town Of Poultnay, receiv-
ed our attention. 1t will be recolected
that an intimation was then given that
any information thereafter received,
which should be important, as showing
the extent and character of the state
business in this. section would be given,
though we have to travel the ground over
again.
Those large mill establishments in Fair
haven, Hydeville and West Castleton,
with the quarries connected with them,
have not, as yet, received the attention
they deserve, but will, we hope, hereafter.
THE BILLINGS MILL,
of which bare mention was made in a
former number, is a prosperous estab-
lishment. This is located at Hyde
vile, and E. A. Billings, of Troy, N.
Y, is the proprietor. Mr. Billings in
tends to enlarge bis business, which is
already quite large. He owns tract of
land of about two hundred acres, one
and three-forths of a mile north of
Hydeyille, on the west side of Lake
Bomoseen, where the quarues are, from
which he procures his mill stock This
mill is a large building, and he manu-
features mantel stock, hearths, billiard
beds, black-boards for schools, floor-tiles,
currier-tables, and also manufactures
roofng-slate in his quarries Billiard
beds, hearths, thing, black-boards, and
currier-tables are finished and sent di-
rectly form the mill to customers; the
mantel and other stock which undergoes
the enameHing process is sent to Troy,
where he has department for this part
of the work. Mr.. Billings now employs
seventy-eight men, including those in his
mill, in his qnarries, and in his enamel
ing department at Troy. His annual
sales average from seventy-five to one
hundred thousand dollars. Other estab-
lishments will receive particular mention
as the information is obtained, and as the
time and occasion will permit.

The Baby.

The baby sits in her cradle, 81.
Watching the world go round,
Enwrapt in a mystical silence
Amid all the tumult of sound, =
She must be akin to the flowers,
For no one has heard
A whispered word
From this silent baby of ours.
Wondering, she looks at the children,
AS they merrily laughing pass,
And smiles DER her face 60 ripping
Like Sunshine over the grass,
And into the heart of the flowers:
But never a word
Has yet been heard
From this silent darling of ours.
Has she world of wisdom,
Ofunspoken knowledge IA store,
Hid away from all curious eyes,
Like the mysterious lore
OF the birds, the bees, and the flowers? ?
Is this why no word
Has ever been heard
From this silent baby of ours2
Often she seems to listen
To something we never can know;
Perhapsto the voices of angels
Who silently come and go;
Making brighter her golden hours IS
With many a word
That will never be heard
From this silent baby of ours.
All, baby, from out your blue eyes
The angel of silence is smiling
Though silvern hereafter your speech,
Your silence is Notwithstanding
All hearts to this darling OF ours,
Who speaks not a word
Of all she has heard,
Like the birds, the bees and the flowers

The FARMERS MOVEMENT. Political
demagogues are at work to win the ia
vor and confidence of the irate farmers
of the country, who have been aroused
into united action to throw off the bur-
dens which press so heavily upon them.
These demagogues, shutting the air for a
scent of the political future, catch the
trail OF what seems apparent will be-
come powerful and compact organiza-
ton, which is to exert great influence
upon the fate of parties locally if not
nationally, They will soon become the
most blatant of reformers, and their
manipulatOry skill will be EMPLOYED to
get control of this newly-organized force
for their own selfish purposes. We trust
to the past bitter experience Of farmers
who have thus been wheedled, to insure
vigilant watch on their part that these
foxes do not again get hold of the fresh
brood of chickens. They are cute and
cunning enough to do so, and to escape
all traps without leaving so much as a
I" brush in them. Wolves in sheen's
clothing, and foxes with WATCHDOG col
lars about their necks, may be looked
out for about these days.-Moore's Re-
rat Neao Yorker.
