Washing or Working Butter.


Some years ago il was thought that a
great discovery had been made, to the
effect that washing the buttermilk out
was great injury to butter and so it was
determined that the only way to make
a first class article was to work the but
termilk out and wipe the butter off with
damp sponge or linen cloth. Well
we remember how the butter expound-
ers rang the changes on this great dis
covery. Many were the theories adj
vanced as to how and why washing in
iured the butter. The saccharine prop
critics were soluble in water, was one.
The delicate favors we're ephemeral
and liable to get washed away, was an
other; and so the sponge took possess
sion of the .dairy-house, and such an
abomination as a sponge is after it has
been used few weeks in summer! All
full of old butter that cannot be washed
out-a thing that should be toler-
ated in no we'll regulated dairy.
The cloth is decidedly better, but
in our opinion an entirely useless arti-
Gle. Clean fresh water can take its
place with far less trouble and no dan
ger. The sole purpose of either wash
ing or working butter is TO free it from
buttermilk before sailing, and either
process, if properly done, will accom-
plish the end in view. The great
trouble in working butter is that it re-
quires decided skill to do it properly,
and while many dairymen understand
the operation, great many do not; and
as it is very much harder to work than
to wash the buttermilk out, many fail
to entirely rid the butter of it, which
will soon cause the butter to become
rancid, and the working method is per-
haps condemned because it is not prop
erly done. As Ezra Michener, a noted
Philadelphia butter maker, says: Wash
ing eifectually removes the buttermilk,
and can be done in one-fourth the time
required to work it out, which is an
important item to any farmers wife
with her manifold duties. can
now count a dozen who are wash
ing their butter to one who dio so
ten years ago, and we are not
to suppose they are doing an injury to
their product. While l do not claim
any superiority for washed over worked
butter Gf properly worked), do claim
it is in no wise inferior, and that the
time saved is sufficient if the perform
ance is properly understood, to cause a
very general adoption of the method. "
The action of water on unsalted but
ter is purely mechanical, carrying of
only the buttermilk, because it is solu-
BILE in water and really mingles with it.
As to the tlavors and delicate aromas
being carried off by water, we cannot
believe it, as this is now almost the uni
versal practice in the largest and most
noted creameries in the country. Fresh
running water as near to siXty-five de-
grees is the best for this purpose. II
the water is allowed to be so warm as
to melt, or render the butter quite soft,
it will certainly do harm, but this should
of course be avoided if to accomplish II
ice should have to be used. If the water
is too cold it will stiffen the butter so
that all the buttermilk cannot be reached
and thus do injury. If properly used it
is perfectly innocent and most conven-
ient.-Anlericd1 DdirynlGn.

Mosaultoes in tno Arctic RegIons.

A member of Lieutenant Sohwatka's
exploring expedition says;
The temperature in Hudson's Strait
was much lower than in the bay, and
we felt the cold intensely. l began to
imagine that my acclimatization had not
been complete until / noticed that the
Inuits who came on board complained
of the cold as much as we did. Indeed,
believe that one feels the cold in an
Arctic summer much more disagreeably
than in the winter. The low tempera-
ture in the strait is in all probability
attributable to the ice that is constantly
there, either local ice or the pack
brought down from Fox Channel by the
wind and current. The great Grinnel
glacier, on Meta Incognita, which Cap
tain Hall estimated to be one hundred
miles in extent, must also have con-
siderable effect upon the climate. As
we passed down toward Resolution ISL
and we could see this great sea OF ice
from the deck of the vessel in all its
grandeur, surrounded by lofty peaks clad
in their ever-enduring mantels of snow.
l did not go on shore while our vessel
lay at anchor in North Bay, for had
no anxiety to encounter the mosquitoes
which abound there, though not to the
extent which makes life such burden
as upon the eastern shores of Hudson's
Bay. Captain Baker and l went in one
of the ships boats to the mainland,
about fifteen miles to the southwest, to
secure lot of musk-ox skins and other
articles of trade at a Kinnepatoo en-
campment there, and though we spent
but one night on shore l never before
endured such torture from so small o
cause as the mosquitoes occasioned us.
The natives kept their tent filed with
smoke from slow, smouldering fire in
the doorway, which is the only plan to
render them habitable at all, but the
remedy is only one degree better than
the disease, as Captain Baker remarked
to me, with his eyes filled with tears.
The only relief from these torments is n
strong breeze from the water, which
carries them away; but even then it is
not safe to seek shelter in the lee of a
tent, for there they swarm and are as
vigorous in their attacks as during a
calm. The men wear mosquito-net
hoods over their heads and shoulders
while in camp or hunting, and the women
and children live in the smoke of their
smouldering peat fires.
The shores of Hudson's Bay are low
and barren and abound in lakes of every
size and shape. They are too low to
produce glaciers, but are just right for
the production of the finest crop OF
mosquitoes to be found in the world,
as has previously been remarked by
Franklin, Richardson, Back, and, in
deed, all the explorers of this territory.

AROUND THE YEAR.

LOVE came 20 me in tho Spring. time,
With tho soft, sweet April showers;
Her breath was the brdath of the woodland,
And her lap was filed with flowers.
Her step was n song inthe silence;
Its melody rose and fell
AS she danced through the fragrant twilight
To the bower wo knew 50 we'll
And the Spring glidcd on 60 the Summer
With the flame of its fcrvcnt darts,
Aud the noon of the floeting season
Was the noon of our beating hoarts.
But tho Autumn came with its shadows,
And noon was no longer hot;
And the frost crcpt into our pulses,
And summer and Spring we're not.
And Love was alive with tho Winter,
But her beauty and grace had fed;
Mid the SHOWS of March left her,
With cypress wreath at her head.
