Different Plans Of Raising Cream.
I.--sMALL pANs.

I.-SMALL PANS.
This is the time-honored method brought
by our progentors from over the Atlantic,
and generally practiced until the march Of
improvement broke in upon the farm and
the dairy BY it the cream can all be gathered
from the milk in good condition, and from
this cream perfect butter has been aud still
can be made. In small diaries, of ten cows
or less, and especially of Jersey COWS, whose
milk is rich and not superintendent, it is
still a question whether small pans need to
be changed for any newer utensils. With
good milk room, in careful and skilled hands,
very fine and uniform butter is made from
cream raised in small pans. When, in addi-
ton, the practice of scalding the milk is
followed, many believe that the butter of
small diaries can be made the year round as
perfectly, and perhaps with as little labor,
in the small pan method as by any other.
But in larger diaries it is not so. 1t has
long been felt as heavy burden to handle
the milk from large herd of cows upon
this plau and besides the great labor, it is
so difficult under all but the most favorable
circumstances to make good and uniform
butter from cream raised in small pans dur
ing the warm months of summer, and the
cold months Of winter, that the practice of
making cheese in July and August, and of
letting the cows go dry from December till
April, has, in most large diaries, been re.
garded as imperative. That this is fact is
shown not only by its notorety, but by the
rapidity with which the first invention that
offered relief was seized upon, and the large
pan method adopted in all butter-making
districts. The objections to the small pan
are, first, the difficulty of controlling the
temperature; second, the length of time
necessary to obtain perfect separation of the
cream; third, the souring of the milk, and
the consequent impossibility of using it for
human food in any form; fourth, the ex-
posture of the milk and cream to the air and
all odors and contaminations floating therein;
fifth, the great labor of filling, handling,
skimming, emptying and washing the pans (;
sixth, the unequal quality of the butter
from causes generally beyond the control of
the dairyman under this system.

Though what is called the Orange county
water antedates the large pans, yet, as it
was simple and not patented, and as conse-
quently nobody had any interest in pushing
it, it made little progress. The first great
md general change was from the small to
large pans, each capable of holding the milk
of a single milking, at a depth of from three
10 five inches. These pans are of various
styles, some to be used with water for cool
ing the milk, and others without Other
minor points, as regards adaptation to vary
ing quantities of milk convenience of empty
ing, etc. were introduced in these large pans
Their great merit of saving labor was at
once appreciated, and has given them great
sale. When cold water in abundance was
used with them the temperature of the milk
could in some degree be controlled, but not
to the extent of saving the skim-mlk in a
profitable condition for use or manufacture
The result of the introduction of the large
pans was unquestionably to give not only
greater ease, but also greater uniformity, to
the manufacture of ordinary diaries. BY
the free use of water TO control temperature
some of the difficulties of butter-making in
hot weather were controlled, and the sum
mer make averaged, on the whole much
better, and brought higher prices, with less
labor and loss to the makers. But con-
tinued use of these pans revealed their
faults, which were neither few nor unim-
portant. They were costly and not durable,
especially when used with water They ex-
posed the milk to the atmosphere nearly as
much as the small pans, and consequently
the control of the temperature was by no
means perfect, bad odors were absorbed, in
sects had access to the milk, and the time
required for raising the cream was not ma
terally lessened. Their chief advantages
over the small pans were lessened labor and
greater uniformity of product, both in guam
tity and quality, during the hot months.

An Ancient Fort.

Near Newport, Wayne county, Ind +,
are the remains of an ancient fort,
which the "oldest inhabitant" found
when he settled up the country, but of
the origin of which not the remotest
tradition existed among the Indians
who roamed through that part Of the
State half a century ago. The walls
Of earth stood six to eight feet above
the ground around them, but these
have been leveled by the pillow, until
they are scarcely higher than the wheat
field, in which they are located. Within
the fort the ground is cultivated, and
when grain Is growing there a large
ring or circle can be seen In 1t. 1t Is
perfectly round, about forty feet In
diameter, and the band Is about forty
five wide, 1t is distinguished by the
rank growth of the straw, Its darker
color, and a singular habit 1t has of
lying down. Before the heads are
near full the stalks bend over, and soon
the whole band Is lying In undulating
pillows of green straw on the ground.
The heads always lie with the circle
and always in the same direction, so
that one branch overlaps the one before
It. The heads never fall outside Of or
In the space inclosed by the band. and
the effect Is beautiful. Children think
that a company of fairies frequent It on
bright summer nights and chase the
moonbesms around It,"

Myths are but Symbols of Truth,

As the scholar sees in the vain but beautiful
mythologie' Of the ancients the embodied ex-
pressions of the hun Sry human soul, bllndly
cropping after the Infinite, so the physician
sees in that popular myth Of the sixteenth CEN
fury the fountain of perpetual health and
~youth-an expression OF the l~ongings of suffer-
ing humanity for a remedy that should forever
prevent the incursion Of disease. The wilds Of
Europe were ransacked for this wonderful
fountain, and Ponce de Leon sought for it in
the cypress-swamps and tangled everglades OF
sunny Florida. Men have searched for it any
whore and everywhere but where it rea ly ia
in the human body itself. The blood is the
real fountain OF perpetual health aud youth.
When this source is corrupted, the painful and
sorrow-produclng effects are visible in many
shapes. Tn mutt farious forms in which IL
manirests itself would form subjects upon
which l might write volumes. But as all the
varied forms OF disease which depend upon
bad blood are cured, or best treated, by such
medicines rs take up from this fluid aud ex-
crete from the system the Doxious elements,
it 8 not OF practical importance that / should
describe each. For instance, medical autho .
describe about fifty varieties Of skin disease,
but as they oil require for their cure very
similar treatment, it Is OF no practical ut lily TO
know just what name to apply to q certain
form OF skin disease, 30 you know how best to
cure 1t. Then again, / might 80 on and des-
crlbe various forms of scrOfu GUS sores, fever
sores, White swellings, enlarged glands, and
ulcers OF varying appearance; might uescr be
how virulent poison may show itself in various
forms OF eruptions, ulcers, sore throat, bony
tumors, etc.; but as all these var, ous-appear-
ing manifestations OF bad blood are cured by
a uniform means, i deem such n course un-
necessary. Thoroughly cleanse the blood,
which is the great fountain Of life, and good
digestion, a fair skin, buoyant spirits vital
strength, and soundness OF oJnstltu ion will
all return to us. For this purpose Dr. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery aud Purgative Pills
are pre-eminently the articles needed. They
are warranted to cure tetter, salt-rleum, scald
head, st. Anthony's fire, ros rash or erysipe-
las, rlng-worms, pimples, blotches, spots, erup-

We observe that Colonel Dudley, of
the regular army, has been sentenced
to three months suspension from rank
and command for disrespect to a
superior officer" This circumstance
recalls a story which circulated during
the late unpleasantness between North
and South, the hero of which WAS also a
Colonel Dudley. The story has 1t that
Colonel Dudley was one day riding
aloug the picket lines and was shocked
to observe that a certain raw recruit
neglected 10 properly salute him.
Riding up to the man he sharply repri-
handed him and proceeded to give him
a lesson In military etiquette. Dismount.
ing he told the recruit to mount and ride
towards him, and he would show how
an officer should be saluted by a picket.
The man obeyed--grandly rode towards
Colonel Dudley's post, was duly and
properly saluted, and rode straight on
towards camp, leaving the colonel on
duty and bowling for the recruit to
come back. Arriving at the colonel's
tent he threw the relns to a boy, dis
mounted and made himself at home In
the quarters of the colonel. After a
few hours the colonel succeeded In get
ting himself relieved, and when he
entered his tent he found the recruit
glorlorsly drunk. "G'way said the
occupant of the tent, with a magnificent
wave of the hand. The astonished
colonel inquired who he was, that he
should presume TO exercise such author
lty. "I'm Curdledudley," was the
inebrlated response. "Colonel DudleyP
Why, man, you're drunk!" WELL"

The Granite Ring.

Charlie Stone was leaning over the
counter of the Thorndyke House, gaz-
ing out of doors at the sunlight, and
wishing he had four million dollarsa and
a years vacation. A tall cadaverous-
looking man with red whiskers and a
carpet-bag in hand thinner than an ar

down with emphasis.

PhOtogrdphin0 in ColOrs: From time to
time announcements have been made of
the discovery Of methods for photo
graphing In natural colors but nothing
satisfactory is yet known to have been
achieved. Some of the more promising
efforts were made a few years ago with
the very sensitive salts OF uranium, but
while 1t was claimed that colored, pic
lures were obtained, the colors them
selves were said to be fugitive. A
report now comes from Munich,
Bavaria, that colored pictures have been
produced by n new process, Three
photographs are taken. The hrst is on
a plate which is sensitive to yellow ray
only the negative of this is printed by
phOto-lithOgraphy in yellow ink. The
second photograph is from a plate only
sensitive to blue rays, and the printing
from this is with blue ink, OVERLAPPING
the first printing. The third photo
graph is of red, and the proceedings are
similar with red ink. The colors thus
blended in printing are said to give the
natural tints. It'll possible that success
may ultimately attend experiments of
this character, but it seems highly i'm
probable that plates can be prepared
which will only photography red, yellow
or blue, separately.

SCIENTIFIC.

The Movement Of the Edrth.-Prepara-
lions are being made at the Champ de
Mars, Paris, for executing Foucaults
pendulum experiment on AL enlarged
scale. His apparatus was suspended In
1851 under the dome Of the Pantheon.
IL was In operation for a long while and
removed only when the building was
transformed into a church after the
coup d'etat In 1852. The weight OF the
pendulum will be 800 kilogrammes, and
IL will oscillate al the end OF an iron
wire from 65 10 20 metres long. Inns
a special construction Will be required
for Its suspension. The pendulum will
be suspended above a grooyed pipe
which will move freely on an axis In It's
centre. The pendulum In Oscillating
will displace this pipe, which will re-
main, like the pendulum itself, fixed In
space, In reference TO the consultations.
Underneath the pendulum will be ar
ranged a large terrestrial globe, from
rs TO 80 metres In diameter. This
globe, resting on the ground, will ne.
cessarily follow with the spectators the
movement Of the earth. The pipe, on
the contrary, supported by a pivot at
the extremity Of the axis, will carry
large indexes, which will appear to be
displaced with 1t. The globe, which
would represent the earth, having a
considerable volume, the movement of
these indexes will be visible; 1t will
render tangible In ONE degree TO the
least attentive, the rotation ofthe planet
on its axis.
