ARM AND GARDEN.

Milk is essentially the same article, thong!
varying much in Quality-but there is nd
good reason why butter should vary 50 great
ly in grade, except that it does not receive
equal care in manufacture. Every farmer
cannot have the same facilities Tor prepare
ton; and every farmer IS not naturally care
full, exact, painstaking, cieanly and thorough
ly attentive to business. The following from
the American Farmer may give hiht winch
will be of value to those who frequently com
plain that they cannot get the market
price for their ''oleomargarine.'
Perhaps three fourths Oi all the Duttcf mar
keted might be made, with proper care ana syS-
tenn, worth 20 per cent. moie, ana at actually
less expense than it is now produced ana
something of this sort the butter-makerS
must do 10 compete with the artificial pro
duct. II can, III our Judgment be accom-
plished by the farmers adopting some plan of
cooperative buttermaking, rs is done by
cheese factories. We do not say that the
same plan may be suited To every locality,
but the principle, in some form, is equally
applicable to every section. Where the pop
ulation is sufficiently dense the regular but
ter factory, taking the milk directly from the
farmer may be adopted. Where the Difficult
ties Of transporting the milk are too great to
admit of this plan, the farmers might churn
their cream and carry the raw butter itself to
a central factory 20 be manipulated by some
such method as is proposed BY the Dake pro-
cess, by which all the different grades OF but
ter could be thoroughly worked over, ana
uniform quality and color obtained. Factory
butter, like cheese now commands an extra
price.

A horse will consume eighteen pounds OF
hay and twelve quarts of mixed oats and
corn, ground into coarse meal, per day A
COW will need eighteen pounds of hay and
six quarts of meal if she is milking. If at
pasture, three quarts of meal may be protita-
bly, fed per day. One hundred hens will re-
quire 100 bushels of corn in a year, in add.
ton to what they can pick up on their range.
They will need very little corn in the sum

In pasting wallpapers, etc, especially
where layers are put on, there arises most
disagreeable ettiuvium which is particularly
noticeable in damp weather. The cause OF
this is the decomposition Of the paste. In
close rooms i, is very unwholesome, and of.
ten the cause Of disease. In large manufac-
tories, where quantities of paste are used, it
becomes sour and offensive. Glue, also, has
a very disagreeabie odor. Ii, when making
paste or glue, u small quantity Of carbolic
acid is "uued, it will keep sweet and free
from offensive smells. a few drops added to
ink or mucilage prevent mold. In white.
washing the cellar and dairy, if an ounce OF
carbolc acid Is added to each gallon of wash,
1t will prevent mold and the diSagreeable
taints often perceived in meat and milk from
damp apartments. Another great advantage
in the use of Cal bollc acid in paste for wall
paper and in whitewash is, that it will drive
away coCkroaches and insect pests The
cheapest and best form of acid Is in crystals,
which dissolve in water or liquety at an eX
cess of temperature

KILLING CATERpILLARs.-Mr. Isaac n. ia
guess, pioneer of Mt. Carmel, ILL.,, has found
a way to kill caterpillars, and that way he
tells through the LEICESTER, as follows; Il
have an orchard which has been badly infest-
ed with caterpillars, and | tried many ways
to get rid of them. First, by burning them
out, which perhaps would have answered had
| commenced soon enough. thea tried
shaking them out Of the trees, but they were
soon back again. My last plan was as fol-
lows; Scrape all the loose bark from the
trunk Of the tree, then take Il strip OF wooden
cloth, and, after saturating it with sulphur
and grease, tie it around the body OF the tree
just below where the branches start out; then
take Il brush and paint strip two or three
inches wide at the band On the tree. Inc
caterpi!lars after beng shaken out, VIII
again endeavOr to mount the tree, but Will
stop at the sulphur line, where they can be
destroyed by the bushel. A weeks labor
could have been saved had | known this
plan at the start. | believe it worthy OF pub

The Albion (Ill,) Journat says that the ca
terpillars are making fearful destruction Of
fruit trees and the timber in the woods in
Edwards county, and many Of the farmers
have fears that some of their best timber will
be ruined by these pests. In another para
graph it says: "The caterpilars were almost
too much for the train on the Air Line last
Saturday. On the grade from Crackel's Sta
ton, coming this way, these worDs had CON
gregated on the rails in places inches deep,
and when the train came along the drivers
mashed them, which made the rails as slick
as if they had been soaped. The train had to
back down and make several attempts before
it could get over the grader

the damage done by the canker-worm is
plainly visible. The recent heavy rains may
have retarded their work considerably, al
though we have not heard whether their pro
gress has been checked. In the Chicago
JDHfaai Of Saturday, u correspondent from
Rockford, gives a receipt for successfully de-
stroying the worms. he has tried it in for
mer years, and says that when the foliage
was nearly all eaten from the trees, the mix
ture Was applied which destroyed the worms
and IN abundance Of fruit was the result OF
the experiment To ettectualy destroy the

Economy may be pract!ccd in thousand
ways, and one way is in our fuel Wood that
has been summed a few days after cutting and
splitting it, and then housed four months or
more, is worth for the family purposes of
warming cooking and washing almost twice
as much rs when green. But few farmers
realize the value OF dry wood, especially dur.
ing the winter season, and hence but little
