Guernsey Butter.

A noted writer on agricultural topics
thus describes the Guernsey mode OF
butter making, which in many ways
| will run counter to the theories of our
| best butter makers: I'm Guernsey the
milk is never SKINNED. 1t stands In
large crooks, or stone jars similar to the
oil Jars of Ali Bahia, until the cream has
all risen and until the milk has become
thick. 1t is then poured into an enor-
nous churn and churned by hand. with
common up-and-down dasher, until
the butter cones, often four hours. The
churning is usually done twice week,
but the cream is far from maintaining
a good appearance to the end OF the
time. In some of the older setting 8, IN
the only dairy which had an oppor-
tunity of examining, the cream was
wrinkled like raisin and c0Uered nth
mould. The dairymaid said they did
not like to see it quite SO far gone as
that, that it would sometimes get
mouldy, but that it made no difference
to the butter. Probably the volume Of
milk is sufficient to wash off any impur-
tiles; certainly the butter of this dairy
gave no evidence Of any fault in the
process. There was no opportunity
to compare the butter made by this
process with that made from cream
alone, as it is universal in this island to
churn the whole milk. AN the butter
whicrI saw was exceptionally good,
but this was probably due in a great
measure to he-character Of the COWS
and the excellence of their feed. We
had less occasion to examine there than
in Jersey, or We should very likely have
found the same variety as there. How
ever good the whole milk process may
be, am satisfied that it might with
advantage be supplanted by the deep
can system Of Ogden Farm" AS this
account comes from one of the most no
ted butter makers in the United States,
our readers can readily suppose that
some of his ideas underwent a trans
formation in many respects.

Butter Making.

The making of butter at low tenn.
peratur3, continues to be as warmly
discussed in Germany az in France. IN
the Tyrol, the SwartZ plan Of cold Is as
much adopted at present as in Sweden
and Denmark. The object of churning
the cream is to isolate as completely as
possible, and then to reunite the but
terry particles contained in it. Profess
sor Soxlet OF Vienna has settled the
vexed question, "have these particles
or globules an envelope?" He states
they have not, but swim freely in the
liquid, and being lighter than this liq-
uid, they naturally tend to rise to the
surface. Their volume varies, but the
smaller size are the most numerous.
Now, while an increase of temperature
ought to cause the globule5 to ascend
the opposite. Researches by several
trustworthy experiments attest that it

ture but its sudden application that

advantage of placing the milk when
warm, in shallow, small pans, cooled
with Ice OF compressed snow. In twelve
hours the milk is fit for skimming. NJ.
Lefeld of Schonigen is the advocate for
the extraction Of butter from milk
without creaming, but by the employ
ment of centrifugal force; his machine
has given good results but the butter,
although produced very expeditiously
has but little aroma, and is sadly de-
ficient in consistency.

Wages for HOuseWOrk Fifty Years Ago.

An elderly lady was relating the
other day in our hearing her experience
in going out to do housework in her
Younger days. She engaged with a
lady in Columbia to do general house
work, no price being engaged upon,
and entered upon her duties at once.
About the first thing to be done outside
of the regular bousework was to make
soap-having assistance in putting up
the leach, the rest of the work to make
a barrel of soap she performed her
self. Killing hogs came next III order,
she trying the lard, taking care OF the
skins, and helping to make sausages.
Then came the butchering OF beef, the
tribe of which Of course must be saved,
and this she was required TO dress
alone. She spun the warp for thirty
wards Of all wool carpet, and IN the
meantime the lady was sick, and she
oficiated as nurse, did the washing,
ironing and cooking for the family. At
the end of four weeks she was to return
home, and her bill was called for. Now,
gentle reader, what do you think she
charged for doing the amount Of work
as narrated above? The first week
seventy-five cents, the second, eighty
three cents, and the last weeks one
dollar each, making three dollars and
ffty-eight cents for four weeks SER
vice. The lady thought the price de-
cidedly too high, and she threw off
twenty-five cents, leaving three dollars
and thirty-thrce cents for four Of the
hardest weeks labor ever put upon u
woman to perform, and yet she never
struck for higher wages, but served her
time faithfully, and is to-day hale,
hearty old lady, fast approaching her
four-ScOre years, able to do her own
housew0rk and lend helping hand TO a
neighbor in need. or wherever duty
calls

How the Chinese Make Tea.

The upper class in China, from very
long experience in the matter, select
the very choicest tea which they can
autobiography the young leaves
from old trees. 4 few of these leaves
are put into a cup, and water. little
short of the boiling point, is added. As
soon as it is sufficiently cool, which
does not take many seconds, for the
cups are very small, the beverage is
auaffed, much after the same manner
as the Turks do coffee, so hot that it is
commonly asserted they drink it boil
ing. by the above quick method, they
skim as it were, only the superficial
flavor of the leaf. which is very capable
of yielding up, when required, Il bitter
extract, which they avoid. This is the
prime source where the used leaves"
spoken of by analysts, come from.

CuriOSities Of Drafting.

In 1866, Mr.. Carillet, of Vincennes,
France, took two young pear trees. each
of which was worked on the ounce
stock, and one of these, the Beurre de
Aremberg, was made to serve as the
stock, while the other, the Beurre de
Charneu, was grated upon it III an in-
yerted position, having its roots fully
exposed to the air. The operation was
performed i'll April, and during the
summer the stock grew vigorously, and
bore two fruits, while the scion tree
threw out buds and shoots from the
ounce stock. To add to the complex
~ OF the experiment. NJ. Carlllet graft
ed four pear sciOns on the principal
roots of the ounce, and two OF these
succeeded. The sap thus passed from
ounce roots through Beurre dc Arem-
berg, thirdly through the inverted
Beurre de Charneu, then through the
ounce again, and finally into the two
varieties of pears.-IRe Garden.

Profitable Acres.

A Texas paper tells Of three brothers,
new corners to Texas, whorented twelve
acres Of ground three miles north of
Waco, last spring. These acres they
agreed to pay rent for at the rate of So
per acre. Having prepared their ground
well before seeding time, they planted
the entire space watermelons. What
was the method of cultivation is not
stated, but as result they realized on
the sale Of their melons DIS much as for
ty dollars per day for quite number Of
days III succession. The crop was worth
to them nearly or quite $4,000. They
made clear of all expenses attending the
cultivation, ETC., at least $500 per acre.

Green Food for Hens,

A daily ration of green food is actual
ly necessary for laying hens. Vegeta-
bles, either cooked or raw, are much
relished also, and serve in some measure
to supply the place of green diet. Oni-
ons chopped fine and mixed with their
food are exceedingly wholesome, and II
not a cure are certainly preventive Of
disease in many instances. Growing
chickens are even more anxious for
green food than laying hens. They
crave it, and when necessary to be
housed from it on account of inclement
weather, it should be provided for them.
There is no green food so wholesome
fcr them as onion tops cut up fine.

A North German newspaper gives an
account of discovery and invention,
by means OF which it is rendered posi-
bic wholly TO overcome the force of
gravitation SO that a man in the last
stages of consumption will, by employ

signable weight; he could, for instance,
easily draw up 10 the surface an iron

which consists of a slender wire, could
be made to girdle the ship so that its
ends could be brought into contact with
each other. Satisfactory experiments
with the invention are said 10 have been
made in the presence of German army

Increased Flow OF MILK.

A correspondent sends us the follow
ing extract from one Of his papers, and
asks whether there is anything in it or
not" "Tepid water, slightly sailed,
given twice a day, will increase the
flow of milk one-third: if the COW will
not drink it at first trial scatter q hand
full of bran or meal over the top Of it.
They soon become very fond of it, and
will drink all you give them. / tried
this plan three years ago with perfect
success. l had only one COW, ana she
was of the common scrub stock of the
country, and after she begun TO drink
the water prepared as above, she fur
nished me twice Il day two ordinary
water buckets full of milk, and by feed
ing little corn boiled with cotton seed
the milk yielded butter enough to sup
ply my table bountifully. and leave me
few pounds to sell every week. | gave
her three gallons of water twice day."
We have never tried the experiment,
but can readily believe that warm wa
ter, especially in cold weather, will in
crease the flow of milk, especially if a
liberal sprinkling of bran is placed on
lis surface, but the writer has prob
ably made the very common mistake of
measuring results by the quantity of
milk We very much doubt whether
in ordinary weather cow thus treated
will make any more butter, the result
noted was most likely produced by feed
ing bran, or "a little corn boiled with
cotton seed" AS our correspondent
proposes to make the test, he should
try an equal amount of bran and corn
without the extra supply of water.
Rich milk must have some other source
than warm water.-Er.
