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 short story and a true one. When but
ter was plenty and good in summer time,
we had more than we could use, but we did
not sell it to the country storekeeper at the
lowest prices of the year, prices that were
ruled by the miserable quality of most of
the stuff he bought for butter-nor did we
buy rancii roll or firkin butter at twice that
price, the next winter. She made a brine
that would bear an egg-that is. brine
with salt enough in it to make its specific
gravity 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 i'm
purities in the salt; and about one tea
spoonful of saltpetre (level measure) 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 t 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 iuto Jumps of from one
to five pounds, and carefully wrap it up in
n rag or cloth, which should be secured by
string. Then drop it into the brine, and
keep it under with 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 if she thought
it was point of common failure; SO re-
peat it.
By this method, which am sure it 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, can testify. We do
not use the method now, because we can
always, here in Delaware County, 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 W. did twenty-eight years
ago; but in any locality where there are
not dairymen of skill who produce fine
article of butter at any season, the method
is truly valuable.-E. II. Chester.

Our Butter in Great Britain.

In recent publication allusion is made
to the exertions the Americans are making
in the conversion of milk into butter and
cheese. Our transatlantic cousins can
make both very good, but neither command
high price in this market. The trade,
when purchasing lines, so to speak of either
can never be depended on, no two cases of
the one nor the other being alike in taste,
flavor or color. Such irregularity detracts
from the value of every parcel or lot brought
to this country, and although this has been
frequently pointed out by dealers, no
marked improvement has taken place. In
this respect, the French buffers are mark
eddy superior. The examination of one
may be taken for that Of all, and hence
French butter passes like bank notes. Con-
tinuous arrivals also have this characters
tic. The price Of labor may have some
thing to do with this, but surely our fellow
farmers in the United States can adopt
some plan for making, and thereby enhance
the value of the dairy produce. In France,
we believe, not only is great attention paid
to uniformity of color, taste, ETC., but the
kegs are all of one exact size, and they are
filled by machinery, and each must contain
the same quantity. This is also great de-
sideratum in American shipments of butter,
as no exact weight can be arrived at. The
same remarks apply to cheese. Scottish

Wool.

The Prairie Farmer says the present out
look is for rather close market and dis
eliminating purchases, and thinks 1t will pay
to send the clip to market in good shape,
and goes on to say that heavy tags and dirt
balls cannot be sold for wool as they for
merry were, except to very green buyers,
and these latter have retired from the mark
ct Of late years too generally to be counted
as customers. When prices went up ''sky
high" last year few of these specializing
gentlemen made their appearance, but the
frosts of the past winter used by the entire
fraternity, SO that the present season is not
likely to find them operating. Hence it
will be better not tic up tags and dung balls
with the feeces this year.
Fleeces should not be tied up too COM
pactly. If a box is used, it should be so
largh as to contain the fleece easily, and the
strings should not be drawn to tightly. A
hard fleece seems heavy for its size, and if
much string is used there is often suspicion
ofsutfling.
If washed at all, wool should be well
washed in clean water. 1t is very difficult
indeed to sell clip on its own merits which
is 'neither one thing nor the other" The
gentlemen who paid washed paices ''for
partly washed or very dingy feeces," were
the same who bought tags and dirt for wool,
and most of them have turned their atten-
ton to more promising fields of operation.

prefer pals and stanchons, as some
call them, because the COW, if standing ten
inches higher than the drain, is cleaner than
when fastened by chain. When breaking
in heifer, let her step the near hind foot
in moose; fasten the other end of the loop,
keeping the leg out of the way of milking.
No matter how much she kicks to commence
with, take no notice of it for while, till
you get the cake from her bag.
l use meats foot oil for sore or chapped
teats, and milk them dry when not sore.
