SOAK YOUR BUTTER TUBS Some
careless dairymen pack thsir butter in
new tubs and firkins without being
soaked. That is wrong, as they impart
the flavor of the wood)to the butter, and
depreciate the valne from two 10 five
cents per pound. Soak your tubs and
tirkins twenty-four hours then change
the water, and soak twenty-four hours
longer; and be careful 10 have no de-
caying vegetables nor anything that
throws out an unpleasant smell in Your
cellar, as your butter will be affected by
such things, no matter how closely it is
covered.

CURING CLOVER HAr.-Some farmers
recommend cooking clover hay after
drying it a little the first day it is cut
and leave it TO "curc in the cock" Good
clover hay can be more safely made BY
cooking il rs il has had one good driving
day, then turning it out about 10 o'clock
the next day, if the weather be fine, but
leaving it quite thick upon the GROUND,
and Immediately after dinner turn it
over carefully SO that the air can circu-
late freely through it, while the sun
shines upon the surface only. The clo-
yer may lie two feet thick upon the
ground, if the air can circulate well
among it. When turned out twice in
this way, with good weather, it will be
as good clover hsy as can be made, and
much safer to NOW away compactly
than the haif-cured clover that is kept
steaming two or three days in cocks.
