OF the importance of using extreme
cleanliness in milking and the various
manipulations of the milk, cream and
butter, the Western Rur0k has pretty fully
treated. The absolute necessity OF d
pure atmosphere, and the covering OF the
cream and butter to prevent contact with
the air, and the germs of fungi constant
Nv floating in the atmosphere, have also
been dweit upon But, with all this, II
will be found impossible to get satisfac
tory returns in extremely hot weather
for, with a temperature above 40 deg
Fahrenheit, the margarine OF mix an
serbs oxygen slowly or faster, according
to the heat, and oleine is the result. Pure
butter contains thirty-eight per cent. OF
solid fat (margarne) and thirty per cent.
of oil or fluid fat (oleine). AT 20 deg
and under the margarine of milk under
goes but little if any change, and at ~
deg. il remains absolutely unchanged
For this reason, so to G2 deg, has been
set down as the limit of temperature at
which cream should be churned.
During the process Of cburning the
sugar of milk absorbs oxygen, forming
Tactic acid. This is always attended
with the formation of heat, and, II the
chlrning of cream is commenced at the
higher temperature the heat will be
raised considerably above the maximum,
and the product will always be inferior,
and often worthless except Tor mechani-
cal use.
On the other hand, the butter OF cream
at so deg. is separated exceedingly slow,
and at 40 deg it will not be separated at
all, and as the heat point reaches 10 deg,
or passes it, the product becomes oily
and disgusting. These changes, there
fore, are chemical, and the chemical dif-
ferences are what constitutes good, In
different, or absolutely bad butter
The thermometer always stands i've
or six degrees higher at the close OF the
churning than at the commencement.
If. therefore, we would reach the best
results il stands to reason that the cream
should stand at "a to 81 deg. when put
into the churn, unless we can keep the
temperature constant at 90 deg. during
the process of churning.
The proper time to skim milk under
ordinary circumstances is undoubtedly
when it begins to thicken in the center
Of the pan or vessel in which IL is kept,
and before it becomes loppercd. In
very cold temperature the milk viii not
reach this point, neither will cream rise
perfectly; and in hot weather the milk
becomes thick so soon that cream has
not time to rise perfectly.
Again, the milk from different cows
varies in it's time Of raising its cream,
according to the size of the oil globules.
Ii has been advised, therefore, TO thor
oughly mix the milk Of the herd to-
gether before straining, but this Is not
satisfactory. II possible, tests should
be made, and those COWS whose milk
throws up its cream at about one time
should be placed together Thus, by
varying the time OF Swimming. better
results in cream will be had, and, further,

A horse left uncovered when not in
exercise will soon grow heavy coat OF
hair. This becomes hindrance to rapid
motion, and should be prevented by Ju-
dicious blanketing.
Ginger beer powders can be made by
taking four ounces of powdered Whlte
sugar, one drachm of pulverized ginger,
and five drachms of carbonate soda. d.
vide it into twelve equal parts and put
each part into colored paper. rake
one ounce of tartaric acid and divide IL
into twelve equal parts, putting each part
into a white paper. Dissolve one each
of the powders into third OF tumoler
of iced water, stir until the powder IS
well dissolved, then pour one upon the
other and drink while effervescing.
How to Polish Brass.-The easiest
way to polish brass is to rub the metal
with rotten-stone and sweet oil, then rub
off with piece of cotton flannel and
polish with soft leather. A solution OF
oxalic acid rubbed over furnished brass
soon removes the tarnish, rendering the
metal bright The acid must be washed
off with water and the brass rubbed with
whiting and soft leather A mixture OF
muriatic acid and alum dissolved in wa
ter imparts golden color to brass ar
ticles that are stepped in it for few Sec
q Ids.
Dried Goldfish. Cut up the fish into
square slices, make a basin hot by
means of hot water, which pour out.
Lay in the fish with two bay leaves and
a small bunch of sayory herbs and pars-
ley; cover with spring water; put a
plate over to keep in the steam and let
it remain for ten minutes. Take out the
slices, put them in a hot dish, rub over
with butter and pepper and serve, A
simpler way, however, is as follows
Gradually warm the Goldfish, either be-
fore or over nice clear fire, have little
piece of butter rubbed over it and send
it expediciously to the table in a thor
oughly hot dish.
1t is said that from careful estimate
there are 1000, 900 bee-hives in the Unit
ed States Every hive yields on an aver
age little over twenty-five pounds OF
honey The average price at which
honey is sold is twenty-five cents a
pound; so that, after paying their own
board, the bees present US with rev.
enue of S., 800 900. To reckon it another
way, they make clear gift of over a
pound of pure honey to every man,
woman and child in the United States
Over twenty-three and one-third million
pounds of wax are made and given to us
by these industrious workers The keep
ing of bees is one of the most profitable
investments that our people can make OF
their money. The profits arising from
the sale of surplus honey average from
80 to 200 per cent. on the capital IN
vested Ohio Farmer.

Mr. Jerome Jones, who il connected
with the glass industry of New England,
recently stated, after his return from Eu'

nearly idle, and the proprietors admit
that American makers have attained a

cut them off from this market. The glass

CONSIDERABLE DAMAGE SUSTAINED MARROW
ESCAPE FROM PERSONAL INJURY.
The storm of wind aud rain which prevailed
the most severe which has visited this section OF
the country for a loug time. The wind b'ew
with great force, and caused considerable damage
IN tho way OF blowing down fences, topping
over weak cEiinnl lss andi demollshing shaky struc
lures. The following Instances have come 10 our
notice:
About 10 o'clock, Saturday night, the large Hat
on n portion OF the building at the N. W. corner
OF Fourth and KING streets, which was used ior
the purpose OF drying cIsthes by the proprietor
OF the laundry located in that building, was
blown II oil by the strong wind, and fell down upon
the roof OF George Courts residence, adjoining,
aud down into his back yard. Mr.. Courts chin
ney was knocked over several holes wero made
In his root and his yard filled with broken timber
and kbrieks. He himself narrowly escaped death
or serious injury, he had come in from the yard
only about two minutes previous to the accident
The damage to his property Is considerable.
| About four o'clock Saturday afternoon, the
scaffoldiug erected tor the purpose OF building the

Men are made to be helpers and will bee ONE
SO in spite OF themselves, even their efforts In
first place are made fo- their own selfish ends.
Men OF energy and enterprise, who build large
establishments and make them resound with
the busy hum of industry, are uuconsciousy
performing work of charity; for, besides de
nving benefit themselves, they furnish work
for many workmen, sustenance for many fam
lilies, increase the extent and importance of
the place OF their location, neceSsitate the
erection OF more dwellings, induce emigration,
and tend to secure the establishment OF more
churches Tor the spread of the Gospel and the
preaching of the blessed Word. Even the
wealthy man. when he orders a piece of costly
| furniture for the qualification of his pride and
pleasure, furnishes employment by this act, to
the mechanics employed in its construction,
who profit thereby.
Charity is worldwide in its intiuences-ex-
ceedlng patriotism, family affection and af-
lection for friends. 1t rises above all castles and
opinions, knows no boundaries, no speech,
no tongue, and brings Its blessings to all the
world. Verify 1t is the bond Of periectness and
the greatest Of all ths graces.
Allow me to say, in conclusion, that l hope
you all, individually and collectively, may ex-
i, emplfy these three great graces and may the
/ ME and history of yonr Order be made dup OF
ail and in your continued daily existence may
, fath, Hope and Charity lind its truest mis-
sion.
