How to Make Good Butter.

The advent of grass will put every
farmers wife in mind Of the fact that
there is always something new coming
up in dairying. 1t may be all summed
up, as we have time and again stated,
in the following precepts:
Be sure the pasture is Of the best, and
that it contains a variety Of the sweet
est grasses. Do not change from win
ter feed to spring pasture too suddenly,
and, particularly, DO not turn out your
cows too early to shift for themselves.
Let the milking be done by quiet per-
sons, whether male or female, at regu-
lar times morning and evening, know
ing always that the milking is conducted
as clearly as it is quietly
Know that the utensils for holding
the milk are of the best description and
always scrupulously clean.
See that the milk is perfectly cooled
to free it of animal odor. A thermone-
ter is an absolute necessity in all well
regulated dairies.
Be sure the room for setting milk is
cool, and so it may be darkened at will
Thorough ventilation is one of the
golden rules in dairying. The tempera-
ture of the dairy room should be never
more than 90 degrees, nor less than 40
degrees.
Skim the milk as soon as the first in
dications of getting thick from Topper
are shown, Turn the cream slowly into
the jar, and stir thoroughly when more
cream is added. Keep the receptacle
for the cream cool, from 30 to go de-
grees, and cover up with some fabric
that will keep out minute insects, and
ut the same time allow access of air.
Ghurn when the cream is ripe, that
is when the cream is sour, every other
day in spring, and every day in summer
Do not allow the cream in the cburn TO
rise much above sixty degrees. Do
not churn too fast There is nothing
gained by seeking to bring the butter in
a few minutes. From twentyFo thirty
minutes is about sight,
Good grass viii make nice colored
butter At such seasons, when the
color of butter is pale, use coloring
1t is better that butter be
rather light than dark yellow,
When the better comes In gfanules |
stop churning. Wash with cold water |
Or cold brine; work only enough to
bring it to firm uniform mass. Do
act salt heavily; from three-quarters to
me ounce of salt to a pound of butter is
enough,
Pack in tight, clean, sweet packages; |
i'll to within a half inch of the Top, |
,over with a clean cloth, and add brine |
9 fill until sold. Keep it in the coolest |
place you have, and there is no reason
Why You should not get the top price /
or your butter.-Prairie FarmeE.

The Farmers Garden.

The garden is not a luxury only, but
a necessity to the farmer who wishes to
have an attractive and healthful bill of
fare and it seems very strange, indeed,
why it is 50 badly neglected by many
farmers. One reason, however, | think
Is, that it is usually in some corner near
the house, and so small, and planted in
such a manner, that all the labor Of
wedding and hoeing has to be done by
the hand Now, | believe in large
garden and in planting the rows the
whole length, leaving space enough be-
tween the rows to work cultivator.
BY this method most of the work can be
done by the horse, and in such Il garden
it is pleasure to work, while in the old
fashioned one of one or two rods square,
it is a back-aching, disagreeable job, and
no wonder it is left to growup to weeds.
The location Of the garden is of great
importance. | prefer a gentle slope to
the east or south, so that the young
plants may receive the sun early in the
morning. It should not be very steep,
for if it is, much damage will be done by
the rains Of summer; and it should also
be protected from the north and west
winds, by high fence, or evergreens set
along the border.
Many people never know the luxury
of good vegetable garden. They live
from youth to old age without learning
how to manage one. They never taste
the best products except at the tables of
Others. People are too apt to forget to
plant succession of vegetables. The
soil must be rich, the land we'll cuitiya-
tod aNarv Nppk mr. oftpuar We need
not here repeat the special directions for
the time of sowing and the treatment of
each vegetable. Every seed catalogue
gives these directions; and catalogue
can be had for Il postal card. Plants
which thrive only in warm weather must
not be put out too early Wait till the
sun comes out hot. Tomatoes, squashes,
sweet potatoes, corn, egg plants, will
grow then as if by magic.-Rural New
Yorker.

THE CLARION.
A FLOWER FOR THE DEAD.

You place this flower in her hand, you sayi
This pure pale in her hand Of clay!
Aetbinks could she lift her sealed eyes
They would meet your own with grIeyec
SURPRISE
She has been your wife for many year,
When clouds hung low and when skies were
clear:
At your feet she laid her life's glad spring,
And her summers glorious biossoming.
Her whole heart went with the hand you won
II its warm love wanted as the years went on,
II it chilled in the grasp of an lev spell,
What was the reason F.? pray you tell
You cannot? ] can; and beside her bier
Ny soul must speak and your soul must hear,
u she was not all that she might have been,
Hers was the sorrow. yours the sin
Whose was the fault if she did not grow
Like a rose ia the summer Do you know
Does lily grow when its leaves are chilled
Does il bloom when it, root Is winter killed;
For a little while, when YOU first were wed,
Your love Was Ike sunshine round her she'd
Then a something crept between you two,
You led where she could not follow you
With a mans firm tread you went and came
You lived for wealth, Tor power, for fame
Shut into her wOman's work and ways
She heard the nation chant your praise.
But ali you had dropped her hand the while;
W hat time had you for kiss, smiIeE
You two with the same roof overhead,
Were as far apart the sundered dead.
You in your maHbood's strength and prime;
She worn and faded before her time.
IT'S common story. This rose, you say,
You laid ~ her pallid hand to-day?
When did you give her flower before2
weIIi What matter when all il O'erZ
Yet stay a moment; y0u'u we'd again.
/ mean no reproach; It's the way of men.
But pray you think when some fairer face
Shines like a star from her wonted place,
That love will starve if it is not fed;
That true hearts pray for their daily bread.

Paste this in Your Head.

Drunkenness in Sweden and Norway
is cured in the following manner: The
drunkard is put in prison and his only
nourIs hment is bread soaked in wine.
During the first day the prisoner re-
ceives the bread and wine with much
pleasure. On the second day the food
is not so acceptable. After that he
takes his food with great repugnance.
In general, eight or ten days of this
treatment sufdces 10 produce such a
disgust of liquor that the unhappy man
is compelled to absolute abstinence
After leaving prison his drunkenness is
radically cured, with an occasional ex-
ception, and the odor of liquor produces
an invincible repulsion.

IS 1T IDENTIFIEDP
A SUPPOSED GERM OF YELLOW FEVER,
WHICH ATTACHED ITSELF TO A GLASS
IN NEW ORLEANS.
st. Louis Republican. ]

st. Louis Republican,
DIR. Walter Bailey, of New Orleans
who is now in the city, stopping at the
Lindell, has in his possession what he
believes to be real yellow-fever germ
Looking at the particles through a mi
croscope it appears to be acloudy colored
substance, divided in all directions by
lines of fibres, taking the form of grape
vine, which are somewhat darker in color
than the main body of the substance
Scattered about these lines irregularly
are several specks or spores of dark
brown, with a minute light speck in the
center. The germ, which had formed
upon the inner surface of the lower glass
in the eye-piece of the microscope, is in
visible to the naked eye; but when a GER
tain focus of less power than that under
which the above description is made is
obtained, the particles resemble dust
mixed with linen fibres.
As to the origin of the substance, DR.
Bailey states that it so happened that he
took out his microscope and cleaned it
about the 1st of September last, when
the yellow fever was raging in an cpl
demic form in New Orleans, and after

Deep Flowing.
ew York Observer.

New York Observer.
Some twenty years ago there was a
mania among the agricultural theorists
for deep blowing Every farmer, it was
said, had farm under his lands of
great value, where the pillow had not yet
reached No matter what the character
of the surface and the subsoils were,
the pillow should go in to the beam. But
these men are beginning to get their
eyes open. Mr.. Geo e. Waring, Jr.,
in speaking of the results of ten years
management of q Ogden Farm" says,
. About six acres were, some seven or
eight years ago, plowed about twelve
inches deep. The subsoil of blue clay,
which was brought TO the surface, was
a lasting injury to the land. 1t still
shows the Ill effect of the treatment, in
spite of time and manure. There are
some soils that would be benefited by
blowing twelve inches deep. but they
are scarce" The rule may be said to
