TIE Sailing OF BrrTER There is
one little item which the bnttcr-m makers
throughout the country ale very care
less and indifferent about Were il nj
expensive item, or one Very hard to hc
procured, there might he some excuse,
hut il is not. refer To the sailing of
butter If the makers knew the great
objection To sailing i'll England and the
loss which some shippers have To suffer
through that little item, salt, | think
they would be more careful what salt
they usc. Procure tire best and finest
salt you can possibly get and see that
ii is we'll and finely ground before going
ON the butter. A great many butter
makers have the idea tina. salt pre-
serves the butter, and hence they think
by putting plenty of solt in, their butter
will be sure to keep. Now, this is n
mistake, as salt is only for n seasoning

little butcrmilS may bc left IN the hnt-

no huttcrmilk left, butter would keep

butter are so accustomed To using n
fresh, lightly saltcd butter, that when
they come TO use our butter, in which
yon can feel the salt grilting between
Your tccth, il completely disgusts them
with Canadian butter.
