churning MIX vs.. Cream.

A question which is often asked, is with
regard to making butter by churmng the
milk, instead of cream lone. Ny own
experinuce has taught me that the milk
frat drawn from the cow has no butter-at
least one third of the milking churning
this milk is only time and labor lost. My
plan has been to take from the cow such a
portion of the first milk as is necessary for
family use, churning the remainder. IN
til the past season, my family requiring q
great deal of milk and butter, 1 have new
er had an opportunity of testing the abili-
ties of q single COW, but since last May I
have kept but one COW.
followed the above plan with the milk,
ohurning each alternate day; and although
I had neither celler nor milk house /.
have made nmety-six pounds of butter
The churning was done early in the
morning, thus securing the advantage,
given By the cool morning air, and the
butter came from the churn solid and
ready for packing, with only the aid of a
little cold water from the well. Some
prefer ehurning every morning, because
the milk is more easily separated from the
butter, consequently the labor less; but,
after years of ample experience, I ndthat
milk. although sufficiently sour, if churn-
ed when too fresh, yields butter hat is
sweet and good, but not solid as when left
a longer period, for the water to begin to
seperate from the milk. This, of course,
refers to Summer months. As to Winter,
/ follow about the same rule with my
neiohbors, churning when the milk is read

the surroundings.-C0T RtrGt Ne10 York

The earnestness Of the efforts of the
Democrats in the legislature to Ieduce the
State tax levy, has been met by a counter
acting effort on the part of the Republi-
cans. According to the statement Of the
latter, no reduction dare be made, and to
this, they succeeded in having a resolution
of enquiry on the subject addressed to the
Auditor Of State, who states In reply, that
owing to the large outlays that have been
In progress aud are still necessary, no re-
duction can be made without embarrassing
the public interests. The explanation of
this state of affairs, is in part to be
found in the fact. that the State has been
erecting two or three most shamefully ex-
travagant buildings for the insane, and
that these costly affairs are now in such a
state of forwardness, that continued ex-
penditure must be made in order to reap
any reasonable advania g from the money
already expended.-Met0drk hdUocGte.

THE rRuE REMEnY

There Is not a business, common sense
nan IN this community, who does not
know that q, judicions license law would
wipe out more saloons in Ohio in q day
than the crusade s will subdue in a year
Probably seven-tenths of all the saloons
in Cincinnati would go out of existence
the moment a stiff license tax was in posed
by the State, because their profits would
be less than the c, ct of the license. Those
that did pay would be in a few respoDsI
BILE hands, and would, from interested mo-
uVes alone, see that no others engaged Ii
the business without paying for the privi-
lege, 80 they had done. Thus at once a
check would be put upon the traffic and a
limit set upon its growth. Qualify the
law of license with local option, if you
please, 40 that where there is q decided
majority IN favor of no sale it can be inter
.dicted, and all will have been done that
can be practically accomplished to check a
traffic which has grown into an enormous
nuisance by reason of the foolish insistenee
of the high morallsts that it is something
that the law has e. defined it to be-a
crime deserving a penal condemnation
