BuckWbeat Cakes.

1t is singular that half the world do
not know how to make buckwheat cakes;
even here in our own enlightened State,
we are, in many sections of the country,
in the dark ages on this important sub
ject. 1t really gives me pain to see the
good danes baking them in the size of
a dinner plate, and half an inch thick.
piling them up upon each other long be
fore breakfast is ready and there they
lie, steaming and sweating, and cooling
till the pigs would hardly relish them
This steam fodder is what some people
call huckwheat cakes! Now, the real
buckwheat cakes are made thus Take
warm water and thicken it with -four,
to which add "A tablespoonful Of molas-
ses, to make them brown well. Brew
er's yeast is best but it cannot generally
be obtained except in large towns. In
the morning add "a little soda. If the
batter is of the right consistence, and
the cakes baked quickly aud eaten di-
rect from the griddle, they will be quite
different from the tough. heavy things
too often stacked up before the fire.

A Misdeal.

There is a historical picture in the
great rotunda of the Capitol, says a
Washington correspondent of the Pitts
burg Dispatch, which has been made the
subject Of much wonder among artists
and connoisseurs. The subject of it is
washington Resigning his Commits
sion" In the right foreground are two
young girls standing in an attitude of
affection and confidence, with their four
legitimate hands plainly visible in nat
ural positions. But around the waist
of one of them is a fifth hand. which
would appear to belong to one of the
loving creature, but it is a hand too
much. People with powerful charitable
emotions try to fancy that the fifth
hand belongs to John Hancock or some
other hero in the rear. but if so, it must
have had an arm like a grapevine to be

Bread.

The following is the recipe by which
the celebrated Vienna bread was made
that became so famous on the Centcn-
NAL Grounds:
Sift in a tin pan four pounds Of -four,
bank up against the sides, pour in one
quart Of milk and water, and mix into
it enough -four to form a thin batter;
then quickly and lightly add one pint
of milk in which is dissolved one ounce
of salt add one and three-quarter
ounces of yeast; leave the remainder
of the -four against the sides of the pan;
cover the pan with a cloth and set in a
place free from draught for threc-quar-
ters of an hour; thcn mix in the rest of
the -four until the dough will leave the
bottom and sides of the pan, and let it
stand two and a half hours. Finally,
divide the mass into one pound pieces.
to be cut in turn into twelve parts each.
This gives square pieces about three
and a half inches thick, each corner Of
which is taken up and folded over to
the center, and then the eases are turn
ed over on IA dough-board to rise for
half an hour, when they are put in a
hot oven that bakes them in ten min

This Sarsaparilla is a combination OF
vegetable alternatives - Stillingia, Man
drake, Yellow Dock with the Iodides
of Potassium and Iron, and is the most
eiiicacious medicine yet known for
the diseases it is intended to cure.
Its ingredients are so skilfully com
bined, that the full Alternative effect of
each is assured, and while it is SO mild
as to be harmless even to children, it is
still so etfectual as to purge out from the
system those impurities and %corruptions
which develop into loathsome disease.
The reputation it enjoys is derived
from its cures, and the confidence which
prominent physicians all over the coun-
try repose in it, prove their experience
of its usefulness.
Certificates attesting its virtues have
accumulated, and are constantly being
received, and as many of these cases are
publicly known, they furnish convincing
evidence Of the superiority of this Sar-
saparilla over every other Alternative
medicine. So generally is its superb
GRITTY to any other medicine known, that
we need do no more than to assure the
public that the best qualities it has ever
possessed are strictly maintained.

New Method With Milk.

A new method in the management of
milk at some of the creameries in New
York, is thus described by Prof. l.. B.
Arnold
As the new milk is received night and
morning at the creamery it lis run into
large watts, like make-vats, and at once
heated to $40 degrees or above, by driv-
ing steam directly into the milk. This
drives the foreign oders out and enables
them to keep the milk twelve to twenty
four hours longer than it would with
out heating. AS soon as the heating is
and through it by a series of horizontal
tubes in the middle of the milk, the
top tube being just below the cream, to
be out of the way of skimming. Thus
by cooling the milk at the outside and
in the middle, it is rapidly done and the
cream hurried to the surface.
When it has cooled to the tempera-
ture of the air, an alright cover is
let down upon the vat, shutting the
milk entirely away from all atmospheric
Influences circumstance of consider
able Importance, as the air in cheese
factories is seldom just what would be
most desirable. In this condition it
stands twelve to sixty hours, till the
cream is all up, or so much of it as the
operator wishes to remove, and it is then
sweet and makes better skim cheese
than when not heated.
The cream raised in this ann is
most delicious. 1t is the finest favored
of any | have met with in any factory,
being entirely free from the stale or
bitter taste which is developed in cream
raised on unscaldcd milk in the open air,
and the butter is all that could be des-
ired. 1t is strictly "gilt-edged,' and
unsurpassed. This combines all the
best features of the differant systems of
heating, cooling and exclusion from air,
without any Of the disadvantages which
occur when either system is employed
alone,
This process of butter making, and
the apparatus used, are without patents
so far as | know, and | have no doubt
will continue so. But it's use has not
yet been wide enough to determine the
question of profit. 1t costs a little
more than old methods, and requires
facilities for cooling which will be in
the way Of general adoption. But it
has something of value by way of
pointing to bottom facts in butter max
ing, which seems to me useful in an art
so impyrical as dairying.
