Storing Butter.

BUTTER is an exceedingly sensitive
product, and, when it is to be stored
for two to four months, great risk of
loss is taken. The best butter is liza
bic to be spoiled in few days by ex-
posure to bad air, or, it may be said,
by exposure to any air of q tempera-
ture above fifty-five degrees. The i'm
portant thing to do is to exclude the
air. If we had package that could
easily be sealed air-tight and then
placed in n storage-room not above
sixty degrees, the finest butter might
be kept indefinitely without injury. 1t
is now well established that the air is
filed with germs capable of destruc-
tive development in any fit medium. If
butter were freed wholly from all case
inc and albumen, destructive fermenta-
ton could not occur; but we have no
process of butter making by which the
oil in milk can be separated in an alb
solutely pure state. 1t is therefore
liable to rapid injury by contact with
air.
The Danes put up their butter which
is to be kept for an indefinite period in
air-tight tin packages of five to ten
pounus, and these again are packed in
wooden cases. But the objection to tin
is its liability to corrode; it would be
much more appropriate to put the but
ter into small, air-tight glass packages.
and pack these in safe wooden cases.
1t does seem as if this might be prac-
tically accomplished, and then no possi-
bic harm could come from contact with
glass. The finest aroma and flavor of
butter ought to be preserved, in this
way, for years.
But Mt present the most practical way
of excluding air from butter is to sus-
pend the sacks of butter in brine By
surrounding the butter with strong
brine the air is quite effectually ex-
cluded. This plan has been tried and
found, practically, to work well.
One way is to stop churning the but
ter when it comes in small granules of
the size of wheat kernel to that of a
pea, wash it, and then, without any
working, place it in large tubs or bar
rels, made so as to hold brine; fill loose.
ly with granulated butter, then saturate
the whole with strong brine, and head
up tight. This has been found months
afterward to come out in the finest con-
dtion. Another way is to have straight
tubs, slightly flaring at the top, and the
butter, after being worked in the usual
way, packed in a muslin sack, made
two inches smaller than the tub. The
upper head has tight one and half
inch plug, the head is removed, the
sack of butter placed in the tub, the
head replaced and hoops tightly driven.
Now, strong brine is introduced
through the hole in the head, and the
tub completely filed, when the plug is
driven and the sack of butter is sus-
pended in the brine and the air ex-
cluded. Butter may thus be kept in
hot weather. er.-NatiOnGL Live Stock Jour

A DEPARTING SNIP.


A COOL. wide stretch OF ocean lies,
Along the sunlit, shining land,
And cloudless depths of purple skies
Bend down ON either hand,
Dim woods show dark on yonder height,
Aud gray rocks crown n rugged steepj
And glowing in the golden light
A ship sails o'or the deep.
I sit and wonder of her fate -
To what far country Is she bound;
II favoring winds viii for her walt
Or storms surge wildly round.
gaze upon the troplc sea
That parts before her rapid way;
hear the cyclones whistle free
Among the driving spray
Far off, where burns the Southern Cross,
She rounds n tempest haunted cape;
Black waves against its masses toss,
Black clouds its cold rocks drape.
Palm. crowned the distant islands lie,
The muimurOus waves sing soft and low
As, while the fragrant winds sweep by,
They slowly ebb and flow.
The shores are rich with radiant blooms
And vague and deep the coral sprays
Amid the silent opal glooms
Their snowy whiteness raise.
Here, like misty cloud that pales
when mornings glory through the night
Sends far it's amber beams, her sails
Pass utterly from sight.
The lonely water sinks and swells,
The gray guls linger near the shore;
Their low cries sound like sad farewells-
VIII she come back no mOreY

When Jacob became fugitive from
the anger of his brother Esau, he took
stones and laid them for pillow. In
some nations a sort of cricket, of wood,
is regularly used for the same purpose.
The proper object Of the pillow is,
not to raise the head above the level Of
the body, but to fill out the difference
between the level of the shoulders and
that of the head when the body is on
its side. And this is the natural posi-
tion, for IL is seldom safe to sleep on
the back. Hence. the pillow should be
constructed simply to furnish the need
ed support for the head, with the body
on the side. 1t should not be too large,
and yet be large enough. 1t should en-
able the head to retain its natural posi-
ton, neither bent down toward the pill
low, nor raised upward out of line with
the recumbent body. This position is
more important than some think. For
all the blood of the head must pass
down through the large veins of the
neck and if these veins are much bent
they impede the return of the blood. 1t
is, of course, specially Objectionable to
sleep on the back, with the head on a
thick pillow, since there is no proper
space for one, and the neck is more
bent and the flow of blood checked.
Further, pillows of feathers should new
or be used, for the head sinks into them
and becomes unduly heated. The old
rule, keep the head cool and the feet
warm" is always good one, but it is
particularly necessary at night, nature
herself pointing in this direction, since,
by q wonderful contrivance, she arrests
the activity of the brain and renders
sleep possible by greatly diminishing
the flow of blood to the brain. What
ever heats the brain sends blood to it.
There is nothing equal to the hair pill
low the year round. For common use,
in the country, the soft inner leaves of
corn-husks make good pillows. - YOUTHS

TIE Emperor of Austria the other
day visited public school for girls in
Prague. Entering one of the junior
class-rooms, he found the children en-
gagged in their French lessons. LET
the children translate something" said
the Emperor. What is the French
for Long Live the Emperor - asked
the obsequious schoolmaster of little
girl of ten. The girl stepped forward
and wrote on the blackboard in bold
hand and with perfect photography,
'Vive rEmpereurr' "Now, give me
the plural of that sentence" asked
the Emperor. Without a moments 5
hesitation the child turned again to the
board and added, set rEmperatricer'
A hearty laugh and an Imperial kiss
were the most suitable reward for this
youthful esprit.

In the June number of FrGser's Mag
Gzine DR.. Lyon Playfair writes a very
interesting article in reference to the
agricultural interests of the United
States and the United Kingdom. He
says, very truly, that American produce
of various kinds, particularly wheat and
beef, bacon and cheese, has been for
several years beating down in price, OF
driving out of the market, British prod
uce. And he believes that this state of
things will continue and increase, at least
so far as wheat is concerned. The crops
of golden wheat which American soil
can produce are not likely to be soon
exhausted. British farmers are advised
by DR.. Playfair not to fear any terrific
consequences from this state of things,
but wisely to adapt themselves to cir
cumstances. There are other crops
which can be cultivated to better ad-
vantage on British SOIL and British
farmers need versatility and readiness
to take advantage of new openings.
They must, as New England farmers
have done, cease to try growing wheat
against the great fertile Northwest, and
cultivate vegetables, fruits, flowers, or
whatever there may be demand for in
the country.

Cream for a Pound of Butter.

WOULD inform Mr.. Bonner, who in
quires about it, that l have, for some
time past, kept accurate account of the
quantity of cream put into the churn
and the butter taken out, and | find
that one quart of pure cream, weighing
precisely two pounds, will make one
pound of butter, as near as can be
figured. This is the thick cream, which
is taken in an adherent, leathery skin
from shallow pan in which the milk
is three inches deep, and has been kept
until it is sour, but not thick. From
cream taken from pail eighteen inches
deep, and which stood four inches deep
on the milk, but which was semi-fluid,
three pounds of butter was given by
four quarts of the cream. This cream
was in good condition for churning,
and needed no water to dilute it. 1t
was distinctly sour, having been skim
med from milk set thirty-six hours, and
was kept forty-eight hours before
churning. The churning was sixteen
quarts, which yielded twelve and one
half pounds; the temperature of the
cream was siXty-two degrees, and the
time of churning was eleven minutes
The COWS were Jersey and Ayrshire.
The more solid cream was all from Jer-
sey milk, was in the same condition as
the other as to sourness; twelve quarts
were put into the churn, and eleven
pounds and fourteen ounces of butter
came out; the cream was too thick to
churn without considerable water being
put in. The temperature of this churn-
ing was sixty-ive degrees, and the time
eight minutes. There is no doubt that
sour cream will make better favored
and more solid butter, and more of it,,
than sweet cream; the butter will also
keep longer in good condition. Sweet
cream butter is excellent, and may be
exquisite, if very well made, for imme-
diate use, but it deteriorates very rap
idly, while sour milk butter improves by
keeping for several weeks, if we'll made
and well kept. But neither the milk
nor the cream should be permitted to
turn to "elabber," as Mr.. Bonner
terms it.-Cor, Country Gentleman.

JUDGE FITz HUGH, of Richmond, re-
Gently gave judgment in the suit of the
Dismal Swamp Land Company, cause
which in point of antiquity may take

one of the court orders in it bears date
1899. Robert Anderson, whose per-

was a Virginia swell of the old school,
Captain in the Virginia Contingent OF
1912, and the leading spirit of Yorktown.
He died about the beginning of the late
war, and left instructions that he must
be buried in the midst of his favorite
strawberry patch, ten feet deep, on
Yorktown Hill. This was done. When
his stepson, Colonel Southall, died, in
Baltimore, Mr.. Anderson personally
superiptended the removal of the body

Culloru Denounced,

There was monster meeting OF work
iDgmen the other day in Chicago, at which
resolutions were passed denouncing Cullom
as unworthy the support of laboring men.
Following are the resolutions in full:
WHEREAS, Shelby M. Cullom again
seeks reelection to the position of governor
of this state, therefore we, workingmen,
members OF the various labor organizations
OF this city, deem il to be our duty to
oppose the reelection OF this man for the
following reasons:
l. Gov, Cullom approved and signed
the militia bill which created standing
army of eight thousand men. chosen from
those most opposed to the elevation of the
working class and most in favor of the
rich mon0polists who thrive by the indus
trial oppression of the people. This
militia bill should be considered as an
insult by every honest. law abiding citizen,
and menace to the liberties of free
people. and the man who approved that
bill should be condemned as unfit to be
governor of this state.
2. Gov. Cullom killed by his veto power
the truck bill, which. after years of agita-
ton and endeavor, the workingmen had
succeeded in having passed by the last
general assembly. This Infamous truck
system, which at our request the assemb-
iy decided to abolish, is so degrading,
unjust, and injurious to the interests and
welfare of the working classes that all
labor organizations both here and in
Europe have waged unceasing war upon
it, and hence, when Gov, Cullom vetoed
this bill. and as an excuse said that he did
1t out OF kindness to the working class.
whose interests were conserved by the
truck system. he added insult to injury
and stamped himself as a hypocritical
humbug. totally untitled to occupy the
again aspires, and he deserves the most
severe denunciation OF the working classes.
3. The establishment of bureau of
labor statitiscs has been the earnest desire
or all labor organizations and labor reform
ers. and no bureau has been established
IN this country except at their much re-
peated request. Hence. after having Sc
cured secured the passage of the bill ere
ating bureau of labor statistics for this
state at the general, it was quite proper
that the labor organizations of this city
who are 30 much interested In it's organi-
cation and operation, should request and
expect to have one or two representatives
