Butter Thirts-Tour Years Old.


1t ia just 81 years since a large crock OF
butter was suspended by a rope into we'll
OF the farm OF Abraham s Myiin, of Willow
street. This old custom was a good one for
keeping the butter fresh, but this particular
lot was destined nevar to be eaten: for the
rope broke, and for 81 years it has rested
securely in the bottom OF the well. One
day Last week the VOL was cleaned and the
butter again brought 10 light. 1t IVES found

THE MARKETs-wEEKL REVIEW.
PIour, Grain and Hay.

The flour market has been quit steady dur
Ing the entire week. Wheat-TLe week opens
with heavy and declining market, values
receding an average of 2lzc at all points, and
Baltimore 39ic. This break has been antici-
pated by many as the result of heavy stocks at
points of accumulation and the entire absence
of export demand. Corn-In sympathy with
wheat, this grain is of h9lc IN most markets,
and l@2c at Baltimore. In this market the
price of white and mixed are well sustained
on buying orders, bat other grades are OF, and

Rancid Butter.

An authority in DAIRY matters explains
how rancid butter may be greatly improved,
and almost restored to it original excel
lence, by knesding it well in fresh milk and
then washing thoroughly in cold water, with
the addition OF little salt. In almost every
parcel OF buHer some small proportion of
casein Is retained, aud the decomposition OF
this is accompanied by the formation of
butyric acid, which causes the unpleasant
taste and smell known as Ia1cidity. This
butyric acid Is really soluble in fresh milk,
and hence can sasily be got rid of by the
simple method of treatment RECOMMENDED.
