Hon. Harris Lewis, in an address
before the Ontario Dairymen's Associ-
alton on butter-making, which is re-
plete with practical sense.
Two things. he remarked, We're neces-
sary in order to secure a frst-class
article of butter. First, the right
quality of milk; and second, a proper
method of manufacture, including
packing. The COW should be in fair
condition, free from sickness and dis
ease, exempt from fear, fright, abuse,
or even unkind treatment. The dis
comfort of the COW first affected the

DEMOCRATIC CONVENTIONS.
THE CANDIDATES.

A Democratic County Convention
was held at the Court House last Sat
urday to nominate a candidate for Mem
Der Of the Assembly. There were plenty
Of aspirants for the Office, among whom
may be mentioned J. NJ. WILDER, Of
Wilmot, J. NJ. Kellogg, Of Bristol, and
Walter Dexter, of Pleasant Prairie.
Mr. Dexter proved to be the strongest
in the Convention and was nominated.
The Convention of the Towns Of the
County nominated d. A. Mahoney for
County Superintendent Of Schools.
Walter Dexter, Candidate for Mem
Der Of Assemb Y, is a resident Of Pleas
ant Prairie and farmer by occupation.
He is respectable citizen and a man
Of fair ability and he is popular in his
town, having been several times elect
ed Chairman of the Board Of Supervis-
ors of Pleasant Prairie. But we think
Mr. Dexter's acquaintance does not eX-
tend much beyond his town and that
his knowledge Of the needs OF the State
and his Legislative abilities are limited.
But he may be the best the Conyen-
ton could nominate from their mate
rial for making candidates. And, as
it is not likely that he will be elected,
he will answer very we'll the purpose
of his nomination.
d. A. Mahoney, candidate for County
Superintendent of Schools, is q resi-
dent Of Salem. He is young man of
natural good ability and fair
education as country school
teacher. And he now holds an
Office in a society of Sons Of
Temperance and is improving in his
manners and habits. And it Will pro-
badly be for his best interest to engage
in teaching and to persevers in his
temperance efforts rather than to be
elected to the County SuperintendeIcy.
And it is equally probable that it will
be for the best interest Of the schools
and the people that he. be not elected.

Quality of the milk, and afterward the
quantity. Plenty Of good food and
pure water should be supplied to the
cows. Referring then to the question
Of the deep 0e2sus shallow setting of
milk, he said that he had obtained the
best results from the use of shallow
pans, though he believed that, with
certain conditions, both systems were
about equal. AS to the temperature
OF the milk, he approved Of from IS
degrees to G0degrees during hot wealth
er, and 90 to- IS in cool or cold. The
milk should be skinned when it be-
came perceptibly sour. Too much acid
should be guarded against in warm and
bitterness in cold weather. Whenever
the amount of cream was sufficient for
daily churningy better results would
be obtained than when the cream was
kept longer, especially during hot
weather. In daiBies where the cream
was kept two or three days, an ounce
OF salt to the quart of cream of the
first Swimming, we'll stirred in, would
be found an improvement. He APP
proved of keeping the cream at the
same temperature while churning as
while raising, that is, so to so degrees
during warm and go to- 65 degrees dur
ing cold weather. The cream should
be brought to the proper temperature,
not by the addition of water or ice to
the cream, but by immersing the vessel
containing it in water. With regard to
the selection of churlls, the principal
point to be observed waste get those
which produced the butter by concus-.
sion, and not by friction, the latter
kind making salyy butter and destroy
ing its keeping qualities. The salt used
in making butter should be both fine
and pure. Along the seacoast and for
the foreign market one-half to three
quarters Of al ounce of salt to the
pound Of butter was. enough; but in
land one ounce per pound would be re-
quired. If the butter was sailed while
in the granular state, and the salt
evenly stirred into the butter, it might
be worked at any time after the butter
was dissolved, just sufficiently to ex-
press the brine, and to give it sufficient
solidity for packing; but if gathered
in the churn it should be worked suffi-
GENTLY to express the bUtternilk and
secure uniformity Of color. He ap-
proved Of the different workings being
five or six hours apart when the butter
was coming too soft. OVerWOrking
was very frequent, and also working
with a sliding or grinding motion, either
of which would destroy the grain Of
the butter and lessen it's value. He
strongly disapprOYed Of the butter bowl
and ladle, and said these were the worst
to use except the hands. With regard
to packages, the most perfect i'll his
opinion was the Orange county return
butter-pail. All wooden packages
should be disinfected with hot brine,
and the soak in cold brine until the
woody smell was entirely removed.
Metallic packages SO far cannot be sue
cessful. The butter should be packed
perfectly solid, but too much pounding
and smoothing We're Injurious. +

terday from the residence Of his parents 61S
Sixth street northwest. The body had been

AN OBNOXIOUS HUSBAND PUT IN
THE INSANE ASYLUM,

Felix Van Ruth, Of Baltimore, Nd father
Of Floris Van Ruth, n resident Of this city,
yesterday through his counsel, Charles Pei
ham, made application to Justice Humphreys
for writ of habeds corpus for his son, who is at
present confined In the Government insane
asylum. The petition sets forth that his son,
Floris Van Ruth, was arrested in this city on
the charge Of assaultiny his wife, and that he
was taken to tho station house, and afterwards
scnt to the insane asylum.
Tho petitioner then refers to q letter re-
ceiyed by him from his son on July q, which
was dated July l3, the day succeeding his in-
generation. In that ho states that Bertie ire
fcrring to his wife) has threatened several
times to send him to tho asylum, and finally
accomplished 1t. How IL was done must be
conjecturcd, but money and something elso is
at the bottom Of IL. He charges that she is q
dangerous woman, and this settles the matter
forever between them. In tho asylum he is
treated like q gentleman, and he would rather
stay thors than ever live with his wifo again.
If his brothers are willing, rs soon as he Is re-
leased from the asylum he will 20 to Baltimore
and enter into business with them, rs there Is
nothing in the future in this city for him OK
oopt disagroeable recolloctions.
He says that his wife has certainly done
everything to him that any she-devil could do
except poison him. and has threatened that
several times, but was afraid to do II, fearing
that the brothers would find IL out.
His Honor granted the writ, aud made 1t
returnable at tho City Hall at noon to-day.
There arc some domestic complications about
this couple back Of tho present troubles. They
wero married some time ago, divorced and re-
married, and now tho husband finds himself
virtually divorced tho second time by confne-
ment in the insane asylum.
