On our trip last Monday night from Tucson to Florence, we enjoyed the com pany of the affable and accom- plished Miss Fry, school teacher at Florence, who had been to Tue son to spend New Years day with friends. The gloom of long end cold nights drive was forgotten in the refining influence of such company and in social converse and song. Lieut..

Winter Butter.

Noticing an inquiry in the Ploughman
in regard to the experience OF butter
makers in the winter time, | herewith
communicate some account of my practice
in the management of milk, cream and
butter in cold weather. | have made but
ter from a small dairy for upward of twen-
ty years and my practice invariably in cold
weather is to heat the ailk in the pans
when strained, on stove or over hot
water, being careful to remove it before
boiling as this produces a curd in the milk
at the bottom OF the pans When the milk
becomes "crlnkl y" it may be deemed suf-
hclently warm. Remove the milk as care
fully as possible for as the cream has be-
come '.set" jarring it deranges the process
of rising and therefore it should be dis
turbed as little as possible. The depth of
milk in the pans should be about two
inches. Every time cream is added to the
jar stir it thoroughly in In warm weather
cream should not be allowed to stand
more than four days before churning, in
cold weather eight.
Before churning cream should be placed
where it will be brought to a temperature
OF 62 degrees, apply hot water for this
purpose will make it better. When the
butter has come draw off the buttermllk
and wash the butter with cold water.
Three changes may be deemed sufficient
to clear it OF buttermilk, if at the same
time it is worked with u ladle If the but
ter is for immediate use two ounces of
salt is sufficient for pound OF butter, but
if it is to be put down in frkins there
should be two and one-half ounces per
pound. Having a fine COW l have tried
some experiments with her this season for
the purpose OF testing her quality. She is
of the native breed, and six years old, she
came in last May and is expected to come

The Mixing of Soils.

a gentleman gives the following as his
experience in relation TO mixing soils,
and the results: II have had great re-
suits from spreading sand upon stiff clay.
Plough the clay land in the fall and spread
on sand until 1t almost appears to cover
the surface The action of the frost the
following winter vii! open the clay soil in
assures, into which the sand will fall. and
in the spring it will be as soft us an ash
bed, the narrowing and cultivation mixing
the sand and clay thoroughly together.
and the effect will be seen for many years
in the hay crop" This is but one instance
Of the benefits resulting from the mixture
of soils, and not only viii it be found
beneficial to spread sand upon a clay soil
but otherwise similar results may be eX-
pected from the spreading OF clay upon a
light sandy soil The effects are principal
ly mechanical, rs in the case OF spreading
sand upon a stiff clay. the object is to dis

Farm, Garden and Household,
Cattle Diseases.

A hearing was given by the Committee
on Agriculture to DIR. Thayer of Newton,
one of the cattle commissioners, on a re-
commendation of their report to stop the
transit into the State, OF Texas or Chero-
kee cattle. The recommendation was that
such cattle be prohibited from entrance
into the State, from the first of May to
November, unless the cattle have been
corralled north OF the Ohio River a certain
time before being brought here There
has been considerable loss among the
farmers the past two years, the result Of
the passage OF those cattle coming here.
The Western States have severe penalties
prescribed for the landing on driving thro'
Of such cattle during the warm months,
which has served as a protection to us;
but by the extension of railroads they can
be brought through to Massachusetts, con-
sequently It law is necessary to protect
ourselves.
There is evidently Il misapprehension
among the farmers and cattle owners, as
to the duty of the cattle commissioner.
Some have thought that the herd should

town. and in some instances the seiectmen

Some of the Charges against Beecher

New YORK, Feb. "A.
The Brooklyn Eagle says that the sub
stance OF Mr. Bowen's statement has been
ascertained Mr.. Bowen does not claim
to have any knowledge of guilt on Beech
er's part He says he believes him gull
ty because of what he has heard from di-
vers parties The only names mentioned
by him are Mr.. and Mrs Richards, who
he says told them that Mrs Tilton confess
ed to them. Another woman whose name
he declines to mention told BIN he says
that in 1858 she saw Beecher enter in a
suspicious matter the study of Plymouth
church with a woman whose name he also
declines to mention. His informant did
not say she knew adultery was committed
there, but she believed there was. The
Sd and chief case cited by Bowen is that
of q woman who he says told him she had
been twice outraged by Beecher, and that
subsequent to the outrages she remained
improperly intimate with him. Who this
woman was, where the alleged outrage
took place, OF when they took place are
facts which Bowen declares he cannot be
induced TO disclose. Apart from these
three cases the statement IS devoted to a
defence of Bowen's behavior toward Beech
er and the public since he became convinc-
ed of Beecher's guilt

Visitors to the Exposition grounds in
Philadelphia nowadays are we'll compen-
stated for their journey. The grounds con-
tain 420 acres, and are nearly triangular
in shape The total number of Centenni-
al buildings now completed, with those in
course of construction, is about 100 ond
the total area covered by the exhibition
buildings proper-that is, not including
restaurants OF other buildings not intend
ed to contain eXhibits-will be about 75
acres, which is nearly double the space
covered by the Buildings at the Vienna
Exposition The latter covered IS 5 acres,
excluding enclosed courts those OF Paris,
in 1867, covered 81 acres; London, 1862
256 acres, Paris, 1870, y L acres, and Lon
don. 1871, 239 acres. Owing to the un-
usually mild weather not a single days
work has been lost, and there is as much
activity at the grounds and as large an
army of busy workers as upon the balmi-
est dav Of summer Within an astonish-
incly short time small city almost has
grown up amid the trees and shrubbery
of Fairmount Park. Over fifty buildings
are now in various stages Of construction,
the most important nearly finished, and
many others which are of minor conse-
qucnce, vet incompletc. The greatest
variety i'll form and style is observable
from the many turreted iron and glass
main building, with its immense expanse
OF twenty acres, and the massive and
magnificent granite Art Gallery, to the
smallest chalet Of light wood and gay col
ors. The lakes and fountains are being
prepared. the walks and roads macadam-
lied, the little rapid transit steam railway
which will convey visitors from point to
point is being laid, shrubbery and trees
are being set and terraced and sodded,
Hundreds of workman of all sorts-car-
penters, painters, decorators, builders,
masons, laborers, plumbers and garden
ers are moving about or plying the tools
Of their trades, and on all sides the great
est activity is observable.
