Keeping Butter.

While 4 well in this vicinity was being
cleaned recently, a halfpound Of butter
was found in the bottom as good aud sweet
as when FIRST made How long it had been
there no one knows The present occupant
of the premises has been fifteen years on
the place, and the pump beng in constant
use, there had been no occasion before to
have it cleaned The butter must have
been there all this time, and how long be-
fore is not known. The outside was Of a
paler color than that within, but otherwise
there was no change.
1t is not unknown to good dairy folks
that butter will keep well in cool, pure
spring water, and some have taken advant-
age Of the fact to preserve butter in close
vessels under the surface. But we think
it is not generally known that it would
keep so long in actual contact with the
water. 1t might be worth considering
whether this hint about preserving butter
might not be taken advantage Of, so as to
initiate a regular plan of preserving butter
sweet and fresh, until markets and other
circumstances favor good prices. 1t is one
OF the weaknesses of the butter business
that at some seasons prices are ruinously
low, and the usual remedy Of potting is not
a very good cure.
The water Of course must be cool aud
pure. At high temperature, such as
most water near the surface reaches, veg
etable organisms grow that would soon
communicate decay to any organic matter

Curing FOdder Corn.

A. II. Holland, of Barre, Mass, showed
us last winter at the time of the meeting
Of the State Board Of Agriculture, some
fodder corn which he had cured, which was
Of superior quality, and be has since written
out full statement Of his method of curing
IT, which was as follows:
Last year cured something over an acre
Of Southern white fodder ccrn, heavy
growth, in a way that was new to me and
which proved quite satisfactory, notwi,h.
standing TIE very unfavorable weather. |
had previously cured it by shocking it in
the field, and intended to treat this in the
same way, but a severe shower with wind
laid it all fat Just before it was Git to cut
and so twisted the stalks that it would not
stand up. was driven to the wall and
went with reluctance. The corn when cut
was laid in lunches large enough to make
medium sized bundles, and without waiting
for it to wilt, it was bound near the butts
with straw and placed upon the wall single,
or two bundles deep as to size, and 80 that
they might balance as nearly as might be-
The butts we're all placed to the north or
west because more difficult to cure than the
leaf, and that they might be more exposed
to the dry winds. And | thought the
bundles would be less liable to be blown of,
as the easterly winds are usually damp.
Scarcely any of it did blow of.
The corn was planted at different times
and ] began cutting during the last week
in August We bad then six or eight
days Of good dry weather, and finding that
what had put on the wall first had cured
considerably, | piled the bundles three or
four deep and afterwards filed the vacant
space with later cuttings Some Of the
corn was grown upon land from which a
crop Of hay was taken last year, and it was
| quite green when cut This | did not pile
so thick, but found that the rain water
dried of so quick that the under sides Of
the bundles did not change their color and
cured without being damaged | was sur
prised that so little water penetrated the
lunches, and noticed that in most case.
where the water remained for any length
of time, that it was where the bundles were
laid partly crosswise of each other, which
prevented the water from running of.
The fodder was put into the barn at diff
ferent times between October 25'h and
November sth, having been on the wal
from eight to ten weeks So much rain a.
we bad last fall made the outside of the fod
der look bad, and some persons who saw
it from distance thought it spoiled, but q
slight examination satisfied them and M

White or Dutch Clover is the queen Of
honey plants. 1t is widely cultivated in
this country, and continues to flower a long
time. In Scotland the farmers use more
white clover seed in laying down the land
in grass than the farmers Of England, hence
the clover fields are better there than here,
And the use of lime and bone dust as ma.
nures has great influence on the produce
ton Of clover. In travelling to Edinburg
some years ago by the Caledonia line,
whole fields, white with clover, caught my
eye and made me take a second look to see
if the whiteness came from the daisies
Whole districts, unsurpassed for excel.
lence, met my eye during visit to my ua.
tive land, many Of which hardly ever re.
ceivcd complimentary visit from bees, be-
cause there were no bee keepers in these

Ia timci past, he who entered farm life
expected TO be more or less an isolated be.

How to make The most money out Of his
land was the beginning and ending of all

dwelling house and farm buildings it was,
therefore, point to get as near the center
Of his ground as possible. OF course, the

ings as much so as any Of the mere convent
ences before named
Another point is that there is not now
the same necessity for as much manual
labor on the farm as formerly. Machinery
now does most Of the labor, and the mere
saving Of mutual labor, has already beer
in measure accomplished. Altogether
it is not matter Of serious consequences
on what part Of the ground the building:

This gives rs much more chance to en-

-Aunt Sue says; Girlsl make up
your minds, love and other contingencies
included, to marry a farmer, ifsuch thing
be in your power. With this end 10 view,
cultivate your tastes aud habits to meet its
requirements, taking advantage Of every
opportunity for perfecting yourselves in
such employment as will best beft you for
such station, remembering always that
however wealthy or fashionable you may
be, there is no disgrace attached to any
labor that can make ourselves or others
more happy or comfortable. 1t is the
hands that ennoble the work, not the work
that soils the hands Of the true, right
minded woman. Aud should you choose
rather to become the wife Of merchant or
mechanic, depend upon IT, your husband
will think none the less of you because you
are familiar with all the necessary details
of housekeeping, so that the sudden disaf.
lection Of Bridget need not create panic
in his home. There is not family in

Transplanting in the Night.

A gentleman, says the Western Ruralist,
anxious to ascertain the effect of transplant
ing at night, instead of by day, made an
experiment with the following results lie
transplanted ten cherry trees while in
hloom commencing at four O'Clock in the
afternoon Those transplantcd during the
day light shed their blossoms, producing
little or no fruit, while those planted in the
dark maintained their condition fully. He
did the same with ten dwarf trees, after
the fruit was one-tbird grown. Those
transplanted during the day shed their fruit;
those transplanted during the night, per-
fected their crop, and showed no injury
from having been removed With each Of
these trees he removed some earth with the
roots. The incident is fully vouched for
and if few similar experiments produce
like result, it will be strong argument to
horticulturists ETC., to do such work at night
