fERF EcT BUrTER.-rhGrc have been in the
providence market this winter t.w hundred
piles OF butter which have a history Th.y
came from single dairy in Illinois, and are
UNIFORM III quality, hardly distinguishablt, in
deed, one from another, although made in SIM
lher, autumn and winter. They are swepter
and have a fresher aud more delicate arou,,
than any ball butter we Were. able TO find las,
summer in Rhode Island. They contain little
salt ana no buternilk. This perfect butter il.
ch'irned daily from fresh milk. Here lies The
secret MIX one hour,-bnttcr the next ",

up OF cream. No subsection of milk and cream

NO expensive cellars with running water 10
secure fresh ar and equal temperature, or. i'm
default, a perpetualy flu0tuatng product OF
butter. IN place Of the hand churn. the power
churn. In place Of the inefficient hand work
ing OF lhe butter, jaws worked by power,
squeezing out the buttermk, Just as the melted
siap Is squeezed out of the soitened iron in pud-
ding. P''N'
Tue dairy farm ut which this butter wos
male, has, We believe, a hundred or more cows.
III addition to which milk is purchased from ihe
| neiShboring farms. 1t is, IL other words. a
factory, producing butter on a large scale Of
uniform, excellent quality. Our theory of Lnt-
ter making has always been to carry the mil,
from the COW G,i.cily 10 the clllrn, and only to
ueiay churnlng long enough for the milk to
cool 10 tie proper temperature. There woubl
then be two Cummings each day, and the ouau-
| tlty should be sufficient to make one or more
complete packages for the market at each
ch'rnlng. Theoretically, the caseine should be-
Immediately separated from the residual mill,
| ard buttermilk, and the ultimate products, Int
| ter and cheese, be the only substance remain
| ing TO be cared for, from day to day. In such
factory, power and good machinery Womb
substitute hand labor, and a uniormal rnnI
product OF butter should result. The cheese
would be of secondary, though Of constl .r,hl.
| importance.
AT the present time large quantities of French
putter oil uniform quality are sold in the En-
eilsh market at good price. Meanwhile Amer
ican butter in England brings much less than
us value from the fact that no two packages are
alike, even from the same dairy. This holds
eoou OF hhou Island butter i'll our own market.
| Inc butter from the same dairy in successive
weeks In summer has hardly a recognizable re-
seinDiance. A principal cause of this diversity
ana lnferlority Of product Is the difficulty ar
impossibility of keeping milk and cream in our
variable climate, and in any but the best an
pointed dairy rooms and cellars. The remedy
| Tor this is in churning fresh milk instead nj
stale cream.-Pr0ridence journal.
