New Idea in Cheese Making.


The Utica On. W Herald, in a
late number, contains letter from q
Mr.. Jocelyn, Of Catteraugus county
concerning process invented land
for which letters patent are applied
for) by the proprietors OF the Brooks
creamery Of Little Velles, N. Y, by
which it is claimed that cheese may
be made from sour or skinned milk
and butter-milk, which compares IA
vorably in quality with the best full
milk cheese. 1t is said by the Her.
ats correspondent to be accomplish
cd by the introduction OF some vege-
table substance, and that by this
process the value Of the milk used
can be increased to IS cents for eV-
cry hundred pounds OF milk over the
common method in use in factories
and creameries. The paper makes no
endorsement of the writer's state
ments, but comedies that if good
cheese can be made by the process,
as is claimed, it will cause great
saving Of much that has been wasted
in diaries.

Horseback Riding.

We regard it peculiarly unlortu-
nate that there is so little horseback
riding in the Northern-especially the
Northwcstcrn-StateS and so few
good riding horses. tits unfortunate
in our Judgment, for the following
reasons:
|. 1t is most hcalthful and inyig-
Grating exercise for man or woman.
2. 1t is a graceful accomplishment
to be able to ride we'll
3. 1t is an easier and more econ
omical mode of movement-caSlcr
for the horse, involving less costly
equipments than where a harness and
carriage must be proved, less loss OF
time in Harvesting and embarrassing
and caring for both harness and car
riage, and is less dangerous to the
rider, when the risk OF breaking har-
ness and buggy is taken into account.
4. 1t is more convenient for the
rider, because he can 90 with his
horse where he cannot drive with his
carriage. He can open gates, let
down bars, or scale fences and corn
fields, and thus save time and dis
lance, which it is impossible to save
with carriage attached.
Every farmer ought to have one
riding-horse that is, every farmer
who keeps three horses or more
Even if he keeps but two, it is more
economical to keep Il saddle sMd use
it whenever it can be used as a sub
stitutc than to wear and tear a har
ness and carriage over the miserable
roads which are too generally found.
a good riding-horse can generally
be purchased for the price OF q good
harness and carriage. The cost OF
keeping is scarcely greater if the
utility and improvement in value OF
a well cared for horse is taken into
account. We should like to sec
MISUNDERSTANDING, for both men and
women, become fashionable. We
would rather see a young farmer well
mounted OH q good, strong saddle
horse than see him riding in a sulky
behind his fancy trottcr, Stimulating
the air and appearance of Il jockey
There is great opportunity for i'm
provement of manners and general
appearance to result from the physi
cal exercise MISUNDERSTANDING will
give our young men aud women. II
would destroy much of the eifeminacy
which exists, beget nobler and more
graceful physique and carriage and
save Il vast amount of time and
money if misunderstanding were more
generally substituted for carriage-rid
ing among our people.-R~ral Ne~
Yorker.

The sickness prevailing is something

/ Lord Kannaird, Of Scotland, writes
to Mr.. Mechi that he has had a most
successful and satisfactory trial Of
reaping by steam power He at
tached his fraction engine to an en-
larged reaping machine, and, though
the ground WAS soft, owing to wet
weather, and the crop laid and leveled
so that it could emily be cut one way,
yet he has no doubt that III ordinary
dry harvest weather, an acre could
4 be cut down within half an hour.
y correspondent OF, the Cincinnati
Gu9ette, writing from Southern Ohio,
says he finds two and one-half bushels
of corn per acre the best quantity to
be sown for fodder He uses rich
land, in good condition, sowing
about the middle Of June, and har-
vcsting soon after it is in tasscl He
finds no fodder is eaten with greater
relish by horses and cattle, but has
difficulty in curing it. Were he to
try drilling instead of broadcast SOW
ing, giving the crop some cultivation,
he would doubtless be even better
pleased with the result.

Manure for Potatoes.

The "Out West" farmers do not
manure land very much for potatoes,
yet perhaps some of them who need
it, may get a hint or two from the
following, by Joseph Harris, in the
Igricultnria::
Owe should get manure ready for
potatoes this winter. | have com
menced my pile already, and it is
termenting nicely, and will keep fer
menting all winter. But it is not yet
too late to start a heap. All there is
about it is simply to wheel the ma
nure in Il heap in some central posi-
ton, and every day or so, as often rs
the stables and yards are cleaned out,
wheel the manure to the heap and
spread it on top instead of scattering
it over 4 large surface. If the ma
nure does not fcrmcnt, it is probably
because it is too poor. The drop
pings from the hen-house if scattered
on the heap and covered up, will help
it. When you kill pigs save the
oloou ana pour IL on Jne heap. any
animal matter will be good. If the
heap is dry and cold, the hot water,
hair, etc, you have left after scalding
the pigs, can be poured OH the heap
to advantage. In my case, the horse
stable Is separate from the rest of the
buildings. We throw the horse litter
into an empty stall, where it will keep
dry. Every week or so we put this
horse litter into cart and draw it to
the pig-pens. Here it stays until it
gets saturated with the rich liquid
from the pigs, and is then wheeled to
the heap. There is no difficulty in
getting such manure to termcnt. 1t
will be in prime condition for pota-
toes in the spring"
