Preserving Summer Butter.

l PROMISED, when telling you how my
wife kept her eggs good all winter, TO
tell you how she used to keep butter
sweet and good from summer to the next
spring. 1t is Il short story, and Il true
one. When butter was plenty and good
in summer time we had more than we
could use, but We did not sell it TO the
country stOrekceper at the lowest prices
of the year, prices that were ruled by the
miserable quality of most of the stuff we
bought for butter-nor did we buy rancid
roll or firkin butter at twice that price the
next winter. She made Il brine that
would bear an egg-that is, Il brine with
salt enough in it to make its specific gray
ity about the same as an eggs. The egg
should just float at the surface of the
brine and not above it. This brine was
boiled and skinned to cleanse it of any
impurities in the salt; and about one tea
spoonful of saltpeter Qevcl measurc) was
put to two gallons of brine. The brine,
being put into the vessel to be used, was
now ready to receive the butter.
OF course the butter must be good in
all respects, or no method will preserve
it even as good as it is; but this method
has the great merit of not allowing
a bad lot of one week to spoil good lot
of another week.
Roll the butter into Jumps of from one
to i've pounds, and carefully wrap 1t up
in II rag or cloth, which should be
secured by string. Then drop it into
the brine, and keep it under with u board
and light weight upon it. Next week
do the same way, and so on just as long
as you please. BE sure that it is kept
under the brine-my wife insists on
that point as IA common failure; so | re
peat it.
BY this method, which am sure is not
new, one lot of butter is not disturbed by
the putting in or taking out of another
and that the butter can be kept about as
good as it went in l can testify. We do
not use the method now, because we can
always here in Delaware Co., n. V, get
good butter in the market all the year
round, and we do not now make our own
butter, and perhaps do not feel quite the
same necessity for economy as we did
twenty eight years ago; but in any local
ity where there are not dairymen of skill,
who produce a fine article of butter al
any season, the method is truly valuable.

misunderstanding and Thinning.

WITH several years close observation
and experience, we have come to regard
late spring, and on into midsummer, the
most favorable season of the year for
pruning in this Misunderstanding with the
season north or south. After the tree is
warmed into new life from its winter rest,
the sap in full flow, and the tree fairly in
leaf, the sooner the wound is made, the
more readily and soundly will it close over
with new growth of wood. If pruning
be done, as much of it should be, at II
time when the bark slips, care should be
taken against loosening it, or if loosened,
or bruised, to pare it off smooth. The IA
cility with which the process of healing
takes place and goes on, depends material
ly upon the smoothness of the rim of the
wound.
Nothing like specific instruction or di-
rections can be given in pruning. So it
appears to us, for we find no operation, in
the care and growth of an orchard, that
taxes our judgment and skill more. To
our mind, the subject can be spoken of
only in a general way-that every one
who undertakes to properly prune Il tree,
must, in the main, lean upon his own
Judgment. We would say, cut out
smoothly all weak and Struggling branch
es, and all that appear likely to rub or
otherwise seriously interfere with their
the tree. Take off all water-sprouts, wher-
ever found, whether springing up from
the roots of the tree or out from the main
trunk and branches.
If trees are set very full of fruit, we do
not hesitate to remove some of it with the
branches which ought to be taken out.
What is left will be improved, both in
size and quality. When branches, two
inches or so, are removed, the wound
should receive . thin coating of waxen
liquid that will adhere and resist the eff
fects of the weather. When pruning
either orchard or nursery trees, late in the
fall, or in winter, for cions, or for any
other object, we invariably leave a stump
of the limb or twig, an inch or more in
length, to be shortened in close to the
main stem, at our usual time for pruning.
If cut close when the tree is in a semi-dor-
mant state, the wood checks, the surround
ing bark deadens and protracts the pro
cess of healing over.-Horicalfurist.

Something About Lace.

IT has been wondered at by persons I'M
acquainted with the possibilities of mech
anism that machine made lace should be
so inferior to that made by hand. 1t is
not only true that il is, but that, for vari-
Gus reasons, il must always continue in
ferior. In lace making it is essential that
the ends of the thread be loose. Now, un-
til "A machine has been devised which will
pick up these loose ends as Dcvonshirc
lace-maker or Il Belgian nun does, it is
useless to expect from the automatic ma
chine the soiiness and elasticity, the even
ness Of thread, or grace of pattern which
comes from intelligent fingers. | do not
desire to snub the machine made gimps
and fringes that give a style TO English
and American ladies' dresses, which the
traveller misses so much as he proceeds
through Europe toward the East but they
are not lace

Reduction of Rates.

There is no one thing which the press
in the large cities of the country has been
more uniform and persistent in than in
their persistent advocacy of such rcduc-
ton in the premiums charged for life in
surance would bring that protection
from want within the reach of every fam
lily. The National Life Insurance Com
pany of the United States of America f.
A. Rollins, President, Jay Cooke, Chair
man of Finance Committee, capital larger
than that of any other life company in the
world, has placed its rates at about three
quarters OF those charged by most com
panies, and wants an agent in every local
ity. 1t has the essential qualities of
strength and cheapness, and we advise all
looking for full or partial employment in
life insurance to address the company at
Philadelphia.
