The Farm and the DUi7Y.

The FARMER gives space to the
following lengthy report Of The meet
ing Of Agricul'uralists in New York.
because. it is one which cannot Tut
lie interesting and instructive to the
Western farmers every word of it be-
ing pertinent to the subject:
From The n. Y. Tribune of the 18th inst.
About $50 persons interested in
agriculture took the first step in this
city yesterday to organize the Ameri-
can Agricultural Society, a national
body. A constitution Was adopted
%nd addresses were delivered. Prof
cssor Le,loux, Of North C:"oIjna.
gave some interesting and important
facts about the adultera:;on of seeds.
and Professor Manly Niles spoke of
the correlation. Of animal forms.
Much interest was shown in the In
terna,ional Dairy Fair yesterday,
and the fine display OF cattle attract
Cd special attention. Addresses
were made in the evening by R. NJ.
Littler and S. S. Gardner. both West
crn men, and by Thomas Whitaker,
OF Massachusetts.
FEATURES OF THE DAIRY FAIR.
The exhibits made this wear are 50
extensive and it is so difficult to ar
range the farm products satisfactorily
that it has taken several days for the
managers Of the Dairy Fair to get
everything as they wish it. The VS.
itors to the Fair yesterday appeared
t." be much interested in cx.,,,sniny
the mauy displays that are unusu.l
to city eyes. The breeds of cattle
are AIRED tor cxcelently by their at
tendants, and they arc u never (2iljno
source Of interest to ihe spectators.
People seem never t" tire oflookinp
curi"usty at the finely shaped he;tds.
the sleek skins and the big. almost
human-locking eyes OF tile animal.
An amateur in stock raising can see
that "bl,od tells" in the short, slim
legs and in the graceful contour OF
each Of the animals. The Hol stems,
Devons and Guernssys. together
with the hand>ome JERSEYS an | the
black Avr>hires, form, n most interest.

dedicated tosahe interest of the
lady readers n. P. FARMER,
who are invitl Ito contribute from
week to week, any items and recipes
that may be Of interest to housekeep-
crs.l
A room hung with pictures is a
room hung with thoughts.
Never enter room noisily; never
fail to close the door after you, and
never slam it.
Paint splashed upon window glass
can he easily removed by a hot So
luton OF soda.
Modesty is to worth what shadows
are in painting-she gives to it
strength and relief:
Sober sense. self-possession, intel
ligent se|t-control. are the safeguards
against head and heart.
Never send your guest who is &C
customed to a warm room off to a
cold, damp spare bed to sleep.
Happiness in this world, when it
comes, comes incidentally. Make it
the object Of pursuit, and it leads US
a wild goose chase, and it is seldom,
if ever attained.
BUcKwnEAT CAKEs.-One quart oil
warm water. one half teaspoonful OF
salt, one half cup OF yeast -four
enough to make smooth batter; place
in Il warm place over night; in the
morning stir in -four to make thick
! enough to fry.
SUEr PUDD1NG-One cup of brown
sugar, one Cup OF milk, one cup OF
raisins, one emp of suet; flour sufi-
cient for thick batter; if sour milk
is used one teaspoonful soda; il
sweet milk one Of cream tartar and !
soda. Put in quart basin and steam
three hours. Both suit and r;.isins
are to be chopped fine.
BAKED BEIrs.-Thesc excellent
vegetables are quite as good baked
as boiled, and the sugar is better de-
,veloped Ivy the baking process. The
oven should not be too hot, and the
beets must he freq:?ently turned. Do
not peel them until they are cooked,
and then serve with butter, pepper,
salt and vinegar.
The Northern Pacific farmer. [volume] (Wadena, Minn.) 1878-1885, 1879-12-18
Little Falls, N. *, the process Q
which is described as follows:

The milk is put into large vat
which holds 600 gallons. This vat
is set within wooden vat which has
a number Of steam pipes passing
through it, The steam is then turn
ed on and the milk heated to 80 or
RS deg. Coloring is then put in and
enough rennet added to make it CO.
agulate in 20 INMATES. In about 20
minutes after the curd is set, it is cut
'.crosswise,' - and in 10 or Is minutes
more is cut " lengthwise." 1t is then
cut both ways, leaving the curd in }
inch squares. The heat is then grad
uaily increased to about SO deg, the
stirring continuing until the curd is
sufficiently set to draw off tue whey,
when it is packed solidly in the vat.
1t is left in tins .contli ion until the
curd responds TO the hot iron test"
and then ground in q curd mill and
put to press. It usually remains in
the press 81 hours and is then taken
ont and put on the s!lclve to cure. A
single Watt will turn out from 500 to
600 pounds Of cheese per day. Two
of the smaller piles Of chaeses are
somewhAt interesting. One of them
is Il pyramid OF s4l>fhred and white
cheeses, exhihi4,l by W. W. Ingr; m,
Of Jefferson county, Wis. There are
three varieties. Two Of these, called
Gmd;t and Etlam c|,ecses, are in
tended TO supply "a demand in the
tropical countries. They are packed
in air-tiyht tin cans and weigh five
pounds each. They are substitute
Tor cheescs which have heretofore
been imported from Europe and then
sent to tye south I'll countries. The
manufacture of them is rs yet all cx-
pertinent. bat it is thought that the
trade will be Il growing one. The
ether variety, the Little Champion"
is SOLD chiefly in the Southern States
