Sailing Butter.

THERE is q mistaken notion in regard
to salt adding to the keeping quality Of
butter, the truth being that salt pre-
serves the different substances occupy
ing the inter-spaces between the glob-
ules of butter, for it is n fact that no
chemical union ever takes place be-
tween the butter and the salt, and the
long-keeping Danish butter perfectly
worked, but not receiving a particle
of salt, proves the latter is not. SO far
as it relates to the keeping of butter, n
preservative agent and that no amount
of salt will keep butter, unless certain
rules are observed and requirements
met. The papers TEEN with notices Of
butter preservatives and inventions to
keep pbutterindefinitcly, but it is probably
a long time before any Of them will
come into general use, and for years to
come the long-keeping butter will be
found to be an article made from cream
where perfect cleanliness was observed
in obtaining it and the butter churned
and put into packages under system
of rules relating to the age of cream,
temperature, and working. Another
fact upon this point is the dropping off
in amount in the quantity of salt that is
now used in packing butter. Formerly
one pound, and even more, OF salt was
thought necessary to preserve sixteen
pounds of butter, but now less than one
half is used and still the keeping quail
ties of butter is being raised, not by the
use of salt, but by a better system Of
making and working of the butter.

Economy Of Full Feeding for Milk.

LARGE yields of milk must necessari-
ly be the result of large quantity of
food consumed. for the COW cannot
create milk out of nothing. She is not
a miracle worker. But does it follow
that large product of milk costs more
in proportion to quantity than medium
yield?
Now, the cow must be supported
before she gives any milk. After this
food of support all the food she con-
sumes must go to the production of
milk or flesh, and if the COW is good
mixer it all goes to milk-in other
words, after the food of support the ex-
ira food all goes to profit-that is, either
to milk or flesh. And it is equally clear
that all the food consumed to support
the system of the animal is lost until
the point Of production is reached.
After the producing point is reached
the more the animal can eat, properly
digest and assimilate. above this. the
greater the profit. This would seem to
be too plain to require illustration.
What would any one think of a manu-
facturer who used steam engine for
power, who should say that he could
not afford to furnish fuel to get up
full steam because the last half of the
steam cost more than the first half
Now, if there is only fuel enough
used to heat the water Just below the
boiling point, it will consume n good
deal of fuel to do this, but no power
will ever be produced by it and this
fuel is all thrown away. The fuel re-
quired to keep the water heated up to
200 degrees only requires fifty per cent.
added to give 100 pounds steam press
ure and set the machinery all at active
work. 1t is evident that If only half
steam is produced it costs fully three
fourths as much as full steam and con-
sequently all the work that is done
with half power is done at IN addi-
tional cost.
Just so, when the COW is only fed so
as to produce a half yield of milk, it
costs more than three-fourths as much
as full yield and the half yield is pro-
duced without a profit, or evenat loss.
Now, to produce steam most economi-
cally you must have a well-constructed
boiler and engine, but whatever the
boiler may be, it costs less in proportion
to work to run it TO its full capacity
than to half its capacity. So,
if you desire to produce milk at the
least cost, you must select cows with
the capacity to turn the largest amount
of food into milk-the larger the amount
the more cheaply will the milk be pro-
duced. of course the best cow is the
one that can digest and assimilate the
most food and turn all the extra food
into milk, instead of laying on the
flesh and fat. 1t is the business of a
skillful dairyman to select such cows,
and then make full use of their machin-
cry to secrete milk by full feeding.

THE DAIRY.

A CORRESPONDENT who has q large
dairy in the western part of New York
writes us that he finds orchard grass
and clover SO superior to other grasses
for early summer soiling his cows that
he is going to greatly extend the
growth of them by sowings next spring.
He adds that when these grasses are
cut early for hay he much prefers them
for winter fodder for his dairy
stock, as he has his cows to calve most
ly in August and September, so as to
make the greater amount of his butter
during winter 1t costs less to make it
then than in summer, and it brings o
higher price, thus yielding him a double
profit.-Rrdi Ne1 Yorker.
The BARRY system" of feeding cows
is based upon the belief that n COW kept
in close quarters, provided they are clean
and healthy, and fed twice day, will
give more milk and be in better condition
than when fed three times q day, or
oftener. In following it, the poorest quail
ity of fodder is given first at every meal,
and before this is entirely consumed
another of a better quality is given, and
finally third of the very best hay.
After the hay is given, roots or other
provender is fed, and in this way the
animal enjoys, on an average, about two
hours ut a meal which occurs only twice
during the day, with an interval of from
six to seven hours between the morning
and evening meal. Wateris given twice
q day.
WE have often called attention to
clover hay as a valuable feed for milch
cows. The large proportion of nitro
genous food which it contains adapts it
to the wants of the milch COW. Milk
producers near Chicago feed their cows
in winter largely on clover hay. and re-
gard it as the best forage for making
milk that they can obtain. No other
kind of forage will produce SO large
proportional yield of milk. Clover
usually sells for less in the market than
timothy, but the clover is worth much
more to feed to cows. Clover hay does
not occupy the place in the estimation
of farmers that it should. 1t can be
produced without exhausting the soil
in fact the soil is in better condition
after having been cropped with clover
than it was before.-Boston Traveller.
MAKING BUTTER IN COLD WEATHER.
Strain the milk into pans that have been
previously rinsed in hot water; put it
on the stove for a few minutes; then re-
move it to the place in which you usu-
ally keep it. See that it is not too cold.
The next day put it on the stove again,
make it very warm, return it as before.
Skim it into an earthern bowl, pour off
the thin cream that will naturally fall
on the sides; stir every day, the third
day stir it with your hand or butter
ladle; when nearly done pour in the
thin cream by degrees; if with the
former, pour some boiling water on
some bran, rub your hand well with it,
then rinse. There are some cows that
will naturally make frothy cream. and
should be disposed of. The way to try
them is to strain the milk into separate
bowls, skim and stir with a spoon.

The prosecution for hieh treason

The prosecution for high treason
commenced in February. 1876, against
the former German Ambassador in
Paris, Count Won Arnim, ended as is
we'll known in the Count being sentenced
by tho Kammcrgcricht, in Berlin, to
five years penal servitude. This severe
sentence Count Won Arnim escaped by
Withdrawing into Italy. Fors some time
past the Count has been addressing
himself to the Public Prosecutor in the
hope Of obtaining suspension of his
sentence, in which case he would return
to Germany and submit himself 10 q
new trial. His appeal, however, was
refused by the Public Prosecutor, and
has also been rejected by the courts.
