AGRICUITURE.

PLASTER AND IT'S UsRs-There arc
some very strange things about gypsum
OF which we farmers have not been able
to learn much. In some places no good
results can be seen from It's use. On
drained mueky swamp the effect Is not
discernible by the eye, and In some
years, though rarely farmers who are
constant users of 1t say they see no
good from 1t on any land. Farmers
generally believe its great use to miti-
gate the bad effects of u drought. AT
ter barley and oats have come up, and
there Is little or no rain, they SOW their
gypsum, and sometimes the effect is
very marked. But IT the season prom
tses to be u wet one they do not often
sow 1t on these crops. Late expert

Of stalks and leaves Is necessary to the

supposed, the Injurious effect Of too dry

mitigated by applying something to
stimulate Its growth at this critical per-
iod. Let every farmer make trials to

ing as the "correct time" for eating
baked beans, and the scene at the
bakers then is the busiest of the week
Among the hundreds of bakers in the
city there are but few who do not ''pui
to soak" on Friday night from one to
five barrels of beans, which added tc
the number cooked in private dwellings,
will give one a conception of how well
deserving is Boston of her fame as a
bean-consuming city. A well informed
gentleman estimates that the consump.
ton of beans in Boston is about 20O
barrels per week, or about 10000 bar
rels per year. One reason why Boston
baked beans are considered better than
any others is that almost invariably they
are baked in brick ovens over night.
Besides baking quantity to sell, the
bakers, for the nominal sum of five
cents per pot, receive and bake the
beans that are prepared by their GUS
toners, thus adding materially to their
own profit and the convenience of the
public. 1t is a fact, certainly not
universally known, that there is in
Boston an establishment devoted exclu-
sively to the baking of beans, entirely
separate from canning institution. 1t
is the only establishment of the kind in
the world, probably, and it is exceed
ingly doubtful whether it could live any
where else. At all events, attempts
have been made to establish similar in
situations elsewhere, and nothing but
failure has been the result, and it is now
plain enough that bean-eating COM
munity is requisite to support beam
baking establishment. The success of
the Boston bean bakery was assured
from the start, and its enterprising pro-
prietor has climbed up to wealth by the
bean alone without assistance from the
pole. Every night in the week the fire
under the spacious brick oven is in full
blast, and two teams are kept busy daily
in delivering the pots and their smoking
hot contents. OF the customers of the
bakery fully one-half are restaurant
keepers, who pay 20 cents for two quarts
of beans, and then retail them at 10, Is
and 25 cents per plate. The bakery
consumes from 1900 to $500 pounds of
beans per week, and its oven has the
capacity to bake $50 pots in single
night. 1t is, perhaps, worthy of note
that the bakery is located in fashiona.
BILE quarter of the city, within stones

clusion, it may be said that the Athenian
fondness for baked beans continues to

that, in spite of what the world may
say, Bostonians intend to have them
Saturday nights or Sunday mornings.

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
BILE to be spoiled in few days by ex-
posture to bad air, or, it may be said,
by exposure to any air of a tcmpera-
ture above fifty-hve degrees. The i'm
portant thing to do is to exclude the
air. If we had a package that could
easily be sealed air-tight and then
placed in a storage-room not above
sixty degrees, the finest butter might
be kept indefinitely without injury. 1t
is now well established that the air is
filled 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 al 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
pounds, 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, alright glass packages,
and pack these in safe wooden cases.
1t does seem as if this might be prac-
tically accomplished, and then no posi-
BILE harm could come from contact with
glass. The finest aroma and flavor OF
butter ought to be preserved, in this
way, for years.
But at 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-
Guided. This plan has been tried and
found, practically, to work we'll
One way is to stop churning the but;
ter when it comes in small granules of
the size of a 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-
dition. 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 filled, 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. National Live Stock Jour-

Boston Beans = The New England
City's FavOrite Dish.

THOUGH Boston has acquired some
tame as consumer of this esculent,
baked beans have been from time i'm
memorial q favorite dish throughout
New England. The sturdy men and
women of generations ago, who braved
dangers and hardships in planting an
independent colony, added strength to
their sinews and muscles by eating SIM
pie food, of which baked beans were
much cherished ingredient, and of all
ancient dishes none have stood better
the test of time and the caprices of the
appetites of the people. But it is little
singular that, while New England is so
large a consumer of baked beans, and
New Englanders, more especially the
residents Of Boston, have acquired the
mystery of cooking them perfectly, the
dish is not in much favor elsewhere, and
that the knowledge of baking them prop
erly is exceedingly limited. 1t may be
said that one circumstance is due to
another-that is, that where it is not
known how to bake beans properly, they
are naturally not popular article of
diet. If the method and process of bak-
ing were patented, it could hardly be
more exclusively held by New England
ers. In New York and other munich
palities, contempt is often expressed
for the Athenian love for baked beans,
and yet not long ago fashionable club
house, on the occasion of special gath
ering, sent by express to this city for
twenty two-quart pots of Boston baked
beans. This manner of obtaining dish
they affect to despise is frequently re-
sorted to, with profit alike to the buyer
and seller. An experienced baker of
this city, being asked why baked beans
were not as popular in New York as in
Boston, said: "Because they don't
know how to cook them. They don't
soak them enough, boil them too much,
and then take them out of the oven be-
fore they are half baked" "But it
would be easy enough for them to learn
how to cook, themp' "Well, if it is,
they don't learn. That much | know"
There is lunch counter in one OF the
busiest sections of New York where
genuine Boston baked beans are served,
which is reported to be doing q thriving
business. Travellers in the West and
South have noticed in the windows OF
restaurants in cities and towns placards
announcing Boston baked beans, but, on

Our Milk. Producing Industry.

ONE of the most interesting papers
read at the recent annual session of the
National Butter, Egg and Cheese Asso-
citation, was that of Mayor Lord, of FL
gin, ILL.,, on 1.-The Milk-Producing In
dustry of the United States" He said
that it is estimated that there are 49,
900, 900 mich cows in the country, re-
curing the annual product of $4,000
600 acres of land for feed, giving en-
ployment to $50, 900 men, and requiring
the labor of 100000 men. Estimating
the COWS at thirty dollars each, the
horses eighty dollars and land at thirty
dollars per acre, together with $780,
100000 for agricultural and dairy i'm
plements, and the total amount
invested in the industry is $2,219,-
100000. This is considerable more
than the amount invested in banking
and the commercial and manufacturing
interests of the country, which is ST.
800, 946,5S6. The cattle and horses
will require two tons of hay annually
or its equivalent. If it is estimated
that 100000 COWS are fed with
grain for winter dairying, and that the
horses daily require six quarts of oats
or corn during the year, they will con
sumo %, 1888, 200 tons of hay, "a, ,00C
bushels of corn meal, $3.50, 600 bush
els OF oatmeal, 1,250,000 tons of bran,
10000, 900 bushels OF corn, and 100000
bushels of oats-of total value OF
1858, 459, 400, To this should be added
the labor of $50, men at twenty dol.
lars per month, or $156, 900, 600, making
the annual value of $514, 459, 400, or an
average of $38, 80 per COW.

The Mo!lie Maguires.
From the St, Paul Dispatch.

From the St. Paul Dispatch.
The wholesale execution of the nur-
dering Mollie Maguires in Pennsylvania
not only failed to put an end to that
bloody organization, but seems to haye
stimulated it, and 1t IS again in activity in
the middle and northern coal regions of
Pennsylvania. In the counties of Schuyl-
kill, Luzerne, Lackawana, Columbia and
Northumberland, it has an enrolled
membership FIVE thousand strong, and
those counties are again suffering reign
Of terror, caused by the murders and
murderous assaults committed by the as
sassins of this order. John Nicholson,
blacksmith living near Scranton, Lack
awanna county, informed upon some of
these outlaws, and his body has been
found at the bottom Of a ravine fifty feet
deep in Hyde Park-mak1ng the fifth
man murdered and cast into ravine
within a year past: Each of these vic
Tins is said to have received "cofin"
notice ordering him to leave the region
under penalty Of swift and terrible
death. Another man named Fennel,
after receiving one of, these notices, was
fired upon by "a concealed assassin near
Thomaston and fatally wounded. He
was juror in the trial OF one of the
hanged Mollies, and his father, mother
and mother>in-law have been compelled
to fly from the region by similar. threats.
Several previous attempts were made up
on Fennel's life. At Ashland, in the
Middle coal field, one Thomas Grogan,
at the head of band of fifty or sixty
strong, made an attempt at the wholesale
assassination of a body Of "black leg"
miners, killing two outright, fatally
wounding two others, and shooting or
stabbing five more. The murderers
eluded the coal and iron police, and are
hiding in some secret stronghold in the
Broad mountain. A feeling ofinsecurity
prevails throughout the coal country, and
unless the authorities are more success
full in protecting life through the agency
of tho law, the time is not far distant
when the people will combine for self
preservation, and wage q war of exter-
mination upon this band of thugs and
assassins.
